Electrically driven industrial vibrator with circumjacent eccentric weight and motor
An electrically driven eccentric weight industrial vibrator comprises a housing, a stator, a rotor, and at least one eccentric weight. The housing defines an internal chamber. The stator is positioned within the internal chamber of the housing and is fixed in rotation relative to the housing. The rotor encircles the stator and is rotationally connected to the stator and the housing in a manner such that the rotor is able to revolve around the stator within the internal chamber of the housing. The eccentric weight is mounted to the rotor in a manner such that the eccentric weight is able to revolve about the stator together with the rotor.
1. An electrically driven eccentric weight industrial vibrator comprising:
a housing defining an internal chamber;
a stator, the stator comprising electrical motor windings and being within the internal chamber of the housing and fixed in rotation relative to the housing;
a rotor, the rotor encircling the stator and being rotationally connected to the stator and the housing in a manner such that the rotor is able to revolve around the stator within the internal chamber of the housing, the rotor comprises an induction squirrel cage assembly encircling the stator;
at least one eccentric weight mounted to the rotor in a manner such that the at least one eccentric weight is able to revolve about the stator together with the rotor.
2. An industrial vibrator in accordance with claim 1 wherein the eccentric weight encircles the rotor.
3. An industrial vibrator in accordance with claim 1 wherein the stator is mounted to the housing via an axial shaft about which the rotor is able to rotate, and the shaft is rotationally fixed to the housing.
4. An industrial vibrator in accordance with claim 3 wherein the rotor is mounted to the shaft via at least one bearing ring.
5. An industrial vibrator in accordance with claim 4 wherein the eccentric weight encircles the rotor and connects the rotor to the bearing ring.
6. An industrial vibrator in accordance with claim 5 wherein the at least one bearing ring is one of two bearing rings that are connected to the rotor via the eccentric weight, and the stator lies axially between the two bearing rings.
7. An electrically driven eccentric weight industrial vibrator comprising:
a housing defining an internal chamber;
