A robot wheel driving apparatus includes a wheel to which a tire is coupled and configured to drive a robot, a wheel cover covering and coupled to both sides of the wheel, a motor housing inserted into the wheel, and a motor embedded in the motor housing and configured to provide a rotating force to the wheel. The wheel cover includes a wheel cover hole configured to allow air to flow from an outside of the wheel cover toward the wheel, and the wheel includes a wheel hole configured to allow air flowing into the wheel through the wheel cover hole to flow toward the motor housing, and a blade configured to allow air to flow between the wheel and the motor housing by rotation of the wheel.

Robot wheel driving apparatus

The present invention relates to a motor comprising: a motor housing; a stator which is provided in the motor housing and has a coil; a rotor installed in the stator to be rotatable about a rotary shaft; and a spray hole which is formed in the circumferential surface of the rotor by passing through the circumferential surface in a radial direction and which sprays a cooling fluid in the motor housing onto the coil according to the rotation of the rotor. Therefore, cooling by oil convection can be accelerated while minimizing resistance due to the oil.

Motor

Disclosed herein is a motor including a shaft, a rotor, a motor housing forming an inner space to receive the shaft and the rotor therein, a stator received in the motor housing and disposed outside the rotor based on a radial direction of the shaft, a first flow path disposed outside the stator based on the radial direction of the shaft such that a first fluid flows in the first flow path, the first fluid being discharged to the inner space and cooling the stator and the rotor, and a second flow path disposed between the first flow path and the stator based on the radial direction of the shaft such that a second fluid flows in the second flow path, the second fluid absorbing heat of the stator transferred through a flow path wall.

A brushless direct current (BLDC) motor is disclosed. The BLDC motor includes a shaft made of a nonmagnetic material, a plurality of magnets surrounding the outer circumference of the shaft, a stator surrounding the outer circumferences of the magnets, wherein each of the magnets has an arc-shaped outer circumferential surface, an arc-shaped inner circumferential surface facing the shaft, and opposite side surfaces facing other adjacent magnets, and the magnets include a first magnet magnetized in a direction directed from the outer circumferential surface to the inner circumferential surface, a second magnet magnetized in a direction directed from the inner circumferential surface to the outer circumferential surface, and a third magnet magnetized in a direction directed from one side surface to the other side surface. The efficiency of the motor is improved while eddy current loss is minimized.

BLDC motor and cleaner having the same

A Blushless Direct Current (BLDC) motor may include a motor housing; a stator including a stator core installed within the motor housing and a coil wound in the stator core and that generates a magnetic field by applied power; and a rotor disposed within the stator and in which a magnet that interacts with the magnetic field is installed and that rotates within the stator by an interaction with the magnetic field. The stator core may include a back yoke in which straight portions and curved portions are alternately formed; and teeth protruded from the back yoke toward the magnet. The tooth include a neck protruded from the back yoke, and a shoe protruded from the neck and separated from the magnet and that encloses at least a portion of the magnet. A ratio A/B of a width A of the neck to a width B of a shoe end portion is 2.5 to 3.5. By optimizing a ratio A/B of a width A of the neck to a width B of the shoe end portion constituting the stator core, efficiency of a BLDC motor may be maximized.
