Abstract

Claims (38)

1 . A consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor comprising:

a stator;

a rotor rotatable inside the stator;

a plurality of permanent magnets inside the rotor; and

a plurality of slits formed along a radial direction of the rotor so that each slit of the plurality of slits is:

between a respective two adjacent permanent magnets of the plurality of permanent magnets, and

configured to increase a magnetic resistance between the respective two adjacent permanent magnets,

wherein consequent poles are formed between two adjacent permanent magnets, of the plurality of permanent magnets, that have a same polarity,

a magnetic flux generated inside the rotor by a permanent magnet of the respective two adjacent permanent magnets is directed more toward a consequent pole of the consequent poles than toward a slit between the two adjacent permanent magnets due to the increased magnetic resistance caused by the slit between the respective two adjacent permanent magnets, and

a number of the consequent poles formed in the rotor is less than a number of the plurality of permanent magnets.

2 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 1 , wherein each of the plurality of slits is centered between the respective two adjacent permanent magnets of the plurality of permanent magnets.

4 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 2 , wherein each of the plurality of slits is formed such that a first end adjacent to an outer circumferential surface of the rotor and a second end adjacent to a shaft hole of the rotor are blocked.

5 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 4 , wherein the first end of each of the plurality of slits is located closer to the outer circumferential surface of the rotor than one end of each of the respective two adjacent permanent magnets of the plurality of permanent magnets.

6 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 4 , wherein each of the plurality of slits is formed in a rectangular cross-section.

7 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 2 , wherein

an electrical angle of a slit pitch (Ps_elec) of each slit of the plurality of slits satisfies a relationship as follows:

9 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 2 , wherein a width (Wr) of a rib between one side surface of each slit of the plurality of slits and one end of a magnet insertion hole of the rotor satisfies a relationship as follows:

Ct≤Wb≤ 0.4 mm

Sl ≤( Do−Di )/2− Wb* 2

wherein Ct is a thickness of a rotor core, Wr is a width of the rib, Sl is a length of a slit, Do is an outer diameter of the rotor core, and Di is an inner diameter of the rotor core.

10 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 1 , wherein the stator is a concentrated winding type.

11 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 1 , wherein the respective two adjacent permanent magnets of the plurality of permanent magnets are symmetrically arranged with respect to a corresponding slit of the plurality of slits.

12 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 11 , wherein the respective two adjacent permanent magnets of the plurality of permanent magnets have different polarities from each other.

17 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 1 , further comprising:

a plurality of magnet insertion holes formed in the rotor, wherein each permanent magnet of the plurality of permanent magnets is accommodated in a magnet insertion hole of the plurality of magnet insertion holes.

18 . The consequent pole type interior permanent magnet motor of claim 17 , wherein

two or more permanent magnets, of the plurality of permanent magnets, that have the same polarity, are accommodated in each of two adjacent magnet insertion holes of the plurality of magnet insertion holes, and
