Abstract
Provided is a mounting structure of a shaft ground ring of a motor in which a second contact part of the ground ring is inserted into a hole positioned in a rotating shaft, thus making the ground ring be in contact with an inner circumferential surface of the rotating shaft to transfer an axial current occurring in a rotor to a motor housing.
Claims4
A mounting structure of a ground ring of a motor, the mounting structure comprising:
- a motor housing including a stator having a core on which a coil is wound and a rotor having a permanent magnet;
- a rotating shaft coupled to the rotor, supported by a bearing to be rotated in the motor housing, and having a hollow shape in which a hole passes through an inside thereof;
- and
- a ground ring including a first contact part electrically connected to the motor housing and a second contact part in contact with the rotating shaft, and transferring an axial current occurring in the rotor to the motor housing,
- wherein the ground ring has the first contact part coupled to one end of the rotating shaft in a length direction and the second contact part inserted into the hole of the rotating shaft,
- wherein the first contact part is a base plate, and the second contact part includes a first protruding piece coupled to one surface of the base plate that faces the hole of the rotating shaft and protruding toward the hole, and a second protruding piece coupled to the first protruding piece and extending toward an inner circumferential surface of the rotating shaft to be in contact with the inner circumferential surface of the rotating shaft, wherein a first protruding piece is twisted.
