Electromechanical device, robot, movable body, and method of manufacturing electromechanical device
View Patent ↗An electromechanical device includes: a center shaft; a rotor having a rotor magnet disposed around an outer periphery of the center shaft; and a stator disposed on an outer periphery of the rotor, wherein the center shaft is formed of a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic, and when projection is performed in a radial direction from the center shaft toward the rotor magnet, an angle between a direction of carbon fiber in the carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic and a direction of the center shaft is 45°.
1. An electromechanical device comprising:
a center shaft;
a rotor having a rotor magnet disposed around an outer periphery of the center shaft; and
a stator disposed on an outer periphery of the rotor,
wherein the center shaft is formed of a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic, and
when projection is performed in a radial direction from the center shaft toward the rotor magnet, an angle between a direction of carbon fiber in the carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic and a direction of the center shaft is 45°.
2. The electromechanical device according to claim 1 ,
wherein the carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic of the center shaft is made by solidifying, with a resin into a cylindrical shape, woven fabric formed by plaiting flatly bundled carbon fiber bundles.
3. A robot comprising the electromechanical device according to claim 2 .
4. A movable body comprising the electromechanical according to claim 2 .
5. A robot comprising the electromechanical device according to claim 1 .
6. A movable body comprising the electromechanical according to claim 1 .
7. The movable body according to claim 6 , wherein the movable body is a vehicle.
8. A method of manufacturing an electromechanical device comprising:
forming a carbon fiber bundle using carbon fiber;
forming a woven fabric by plaiting the carbon fiber bundles;
winding the woven fabric into a cylindrical shape so that the angle between a direction of the carbon fiber of the woven fabric and a winding direction becomes 45°;
producing a center shaft by solidifying the woven fabric with a carbon-fiber-reinforced plastic;
disposing a permanent magnet around a periphery of the center shaft;
forming a rotor by molding the center shaft and the permanent magnet using a resin; and
assembling the rotor to a stator having an electromagnetic coil.
