Direct current motor
View Patent ↗A direct current motor includes: a stator ( 2 ) on which a plurality of coils ( 4 ) is provided; a rotor ( 8 ) including a plurality of permanent magnet magnetic poles ( 9 ) that is provided so as to face an inner periphery of the stator, and a pipe ( 11 ) on one end; a current-carrying portion ( 19 ) that is provided on the other end of the rotor ( 8 ) and commutates current supplied from a power source to the coils ( 4 ) on the stator ( 2 ); a sleeve bearing ( 6 ) that holds the rotor ( 8 ); and a ball bearing ( 7 ) that holds the rotor ( 8 ) and has a larger load-bearing capacity than that of the sleeve bearing ( 6 ). Furthermore, the pipe ( 11 ) holds the ball bearing ( 7 ) and is in direct contact with the ball bearing ( 7 ).
1. A direct current motor comprising:
a stator on which a plurality of coils is provided;
a rotor including a plurality of magnetic poles that is provided so as to face an inner periphery of the stator;
a current-carrying portion that is provided on one end portion of the rotor and commutates current supplied from a power source to the coils on the stator;
a ball bearing that holds the rotor, the rotor pressing an upper face of an inner ring of the ball bearing;
a bearing that holds the rotor and has a smaller load-bearing capacity than that of the ball bearing;
a shaft that translationally moves in the axial direction of the rotor in accordance with rotation of the rotor; and
a pressing member that is fixed to the other end portion of the rotor and presses a lower face of the inner ring of the ball bearing,
wherein:
the pressing member comprises a pipe that is attached to an inner side of the inner ring of the ball bearing, and a plate presses the inner ring of the ball bearing.
2. The direct current motor according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe and the plate are fixed by laser welding.
3. The direct current motor according to claim 2 , wherein the plate comprises a bending portion and covers the ball bearing.
4. The direct current motor according to claim 3 , wherein the pipe and the rotor are insert-molded.
5. The direct current motor according to claim 4 , wherein the pipe is provided with at least one hole.
6. The direct current motor according to claim 5 , wherein the pipe is formed by rolling a plate material.
7. The direct current motor according to claim 1 , wherein a lower end portion of the pipe is tapered.
8. The direct current motor according to claim 7 , wherein the pipe is formed by rolling a plate material.
9. The direct current motor according to claim 1 , wherein at least a portion of the bearing having a smaller load-bearing capacity is housed in an opening provided in the current-carrying portion.
10. The direct current motor according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe is formed of metal.
