Hollow cup motoris a special type of motor, with high efficiency, high speed, low noise, small size, light weight and so on. In many applications, such as drones, robots, medical devices, etc., hollow cup motors have become the preferred drive mode. This paper will analyze the efficiency of the hollow cup motor in detail and explore its advantages in different applications.
The working principle of hollow cup motor
Hollow cup motor is a brushless DC motor, and its working principle is different from the traditional brush DC motor. The rotor of the motor is a hollow cup-shaped structure with a permanent magnet inside. When the stator coil of the motor is energized, a magnetic field is generated between the stator and the rotor, which drives the rotor to rotate.
Efficiency analysis of hollow cup motor
The efficiency of a motor refers to the ratio of the mechanical power output of the motor to the electrical energy input. The efficiency of hollow cup motors is usually between 85% and 90%, which is much higher than that of traditional brushed DC motors. The following are the reasons for the high efficiency of hollow cup motors:
2.1 Brushless structure
During the operation of traditional brushless DC motor, the direction of current needs to be changed by carbon brush and commutator, so as to achieve continuous rotation of the motor. However, the presence of carbon brushes and commutators will increase the friction loss and power loss of the motor, reducing the efficiency of the motor. The hollow cup motor adopts brushless structure, and realizes the change of current direction through electronic controller, eliminates the loss of carbon brush and commutator, thus improving the efficiency of the motor.
2.2 High magnetic flux density
The rotor of the hollow cup motor uses a permanent magnet with high flux density, so that the motor can produce a large torque and speed under the small volume and weight. The permanent magnet with high flux density can reduce the hysteresis loss and eddy current loss of the motor, and further improve the efficiency of the motor.
2.3 Optimized electromagnetic design
The electromagnetic design of the hollow cup motor is optimized to make the magnetic field distribution of the motor more uniform and reduce the uneven loss of the magnetic field. In addition, the optimized electromagnetic design can also reduce the harmonic loss of the motor and improve the efficiency of the motor.
2.4 High-performance electronic controller
Hollow cup motors are usually equipped with high-performance electronic controllers that allow for precise current control and speed control. The electronic controller can adjust the current and voltage in real time according to the actual operation of the motor, so as to improve the efficiency of the motor.
