Starter motor armature manufacturer: What are the characteristics of the armature?

Release Time:

2022-12-01

   Starter armature According to the manufacturer, whether it is a DC motor or an AC motor, and regardless of whether the windings are placed on the rotor or stator, they all belong to the armature windings placed in the iron core slots. Different winding connection methods result in different types and characteristics. To strengthen the mechanical fixation of the windings, the effective (straight) parts are placed in the slots. However, the ends are still ineffective parts, only serving as connectors.

  The starter armature manufacturer believes that windings embedded in slots also bring some problems. First, in order to prevent tooth saturation, the air gap magnetic density must be limited, which limits the utilization coefficient of the motor. Second, the motor voltage cannot be too high. Third, the inductance of the coil increases, which is related to the saturation of the iron core. This slows down the response speed of the motor for electric drive and servo systems, and the nonlinearity of the inductance complicates the control system. Therefore, in the development of large steam turbine generators, especially with the advent of superconducting motors, as well as DC motors and control motors, slotless motors have emerged.

  The starter armature manufacturer believes that slotless DC motors are mainly used for the control of DC traction motors and small DC motors. The iron core of a slotless motor is a cylindrical yoke, which is wound with an insulating layer or fitted with a prefabricated insulating tube. Then, the winding elements are evenly distributed on its surface, and then bundled with a glass fiber tape, etc. The whole is impregnated or filled with epoxy resin, and then cured to form a whole. The winding type and connection method are similar to those of general DC armature windings. Slotted armature windings are double-layered, while slotless armature windings can be double-layered or single-layered.

  The starter armature manufacturer believes that the main characteristics of slotless armature windings are that their inductance and reactance EMF are much smaller than those of slotted windings, and all winding elements have obvious homogeneity in commutation parameters, which provides favorable electromagnetic conditions for commutation. Because the equivalent air gap (radial height of the winding plus air gap) of the slotless motor is quite large, the air gap magnetomotive force is much larger than the armature reaction magnetomotive force of the quadrature axis, so its magnetic stability coefficient and overload capacity are even greater than that of slotted armature motors with compensating windings.

  The starter armature manufacturer believes that the superior structural characteristics of slotless armature windings make their heat dissipation much better than that of traditional armature windings. Moreover, due to the elimination of the tooth slots, there is greater freedom in the design aspects of selecting the electromagnetic load, main dimensions, armature structure, and how to use the armature winding ends to increase the main magnetic flux and torque. Since the tooth iron part of the armature can now also be wound, the effective area utilization rate is greatly improved, the radial size can be reduced, and the motor can develop in a slender direction.

What are the structural hotspots of a starter armature?

The starter armature moves the entire armature through the magnetic force of the magnetic poles, causing the drive gear to mesh with the flywheel gear ring. The armature of the starter is offset from the magnetic pole by a certain distance under the action of the reset spring, and the commutator is relatively long. The starter housing is equipped with an electromagnetic switch. Its magnetizing coil is controlled by the starter switch S. The movable contact is the contact bridge. The upper end of the contact bridge is longer and the lower end is shorter, so the starter circuit can be connected in two stages. The starter has three magnetic field windings. Among them, the main magnetic field winding with fewer turns is made of flat copper bars, and the other two fine wire windings are the series auxiliary magnetic field winding and the parallel auxiliary magnetic field winding (also called the holding coil). The starter one-way clutch generally uses a friction plate clutch. The working process of the starter armature is divided into two stages. The series auxiliary excitation winding mainly works in the first stage, and in the second stage it is almost short-circuited due to being in parallel with the main excitation winding; the parallel auxiliary excitation winding works in both stages, which not only increases the magnetic force attracting the armature, but also limits the no-load speed. (1) Engagement When the starter switch S is turned on, the electromagnet generates suction to attract the contact bridge. However, because the pawl rests against the blank, the contact bridge can only close at the upper end, and the series and parallel auxiliary magnetic field winding circuits are turned on. The current circuit is:

Starter armature: What is an armature?

The starter armature manufacturer states that motors play a key and crucial role in the process of achieving mutual conversion between mechanical energy and electrical energy. For generators, it is the component that generates electromotive force, such as the rotor in a DC generator and the stator in an AC generator; for motors, it is a component that generates electromagnetic force, such as the rotor in a DC motor. The starter armature manufacturer states that the armature is the relative motion of the coil relative to the magnetic field of the coil-carrying component in the motor. In a generator, an induced electromotive force is generated in a forced rotating coil to generate electricity. In a motor, the energized coil is subjected to Ampere force in the magnetic field, causing it to rotate in the magnetic field. In the mid-19th century, the term "armature" was early used for inductors, i.e., holders of magnets. Part of an alternator or related equipment can be represented by any mechanical or electrical aspect. Although these two sets of terms are clearly separated, they are often used interchangeably, or a combination of mechanical and electrical terms is included. This can cause confusion when using composite motors such as brushless alternators, or when talking to people accustomed to using different configurations of motors. The starter armature manufacturer states that in most generators, the field magnet is rotating and is part of the rotor, while the armature is stationary.

Starter armature: armature knowledge points

The armature manufacturer states that the armature plays a key and crucial role in the process of converting mechanical energy and electrical energy into each other. For generators, it is the component that generates electromotive force, such as the rotor in a DC generator and the stator in an AC generator; for motors, it is a component that generates electromagnetic force, such as the rotor in a DC motor. The armature is the part of a motor that has coils, and the coils move relative to the magnetic field. In a generator, an induced electromotive force is generated in the forced rotating coil to generate electricity. In a motor, the energized coil is subjected to the Ampere force in the magnetic field, causing it to rotate in the magnetic field. The armature manufacturer states that in most generators, the field magnet is rotating and is part of the rotor, while the armature is stationary and is part of the stator. Motors and generators can be composed of a stationary armature and a rotating magnetic field or a rotating armature and a stationary magnetic field. The pole shoes and moving iron parts of permanent magnets or electromagnets and solenoids (especially when the latter are used as switches or relays) can also be called armatures. The armature manufacturer states that armatures are divided into two categories: DC armature windings and AC armature windings. They are used in DC motors and AC motors respectively. Including the armature core and the armature winding, the armature winding is the circuit part of the DC motor,
