Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

A rotor of an electric motor includes a rotating shaft, a rotor core and a commutator fixed to the rotating shaft, and a first sleeve, a second sleeve and a third sleeve arranged around the rotating shaft. The first sleeve is located on a side of the rotor core away from the commutator and abuts against the rotor core, the second sleeve is located between the rotor core and the commutator, and the third sleeve is located on a side of the commutator away from the rotor core.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A rotor of an electric motor comprising: a rotating shaft; a rotor core and a commutator fixed to the rotating shaft, the commutator comprising a cylindrical insulating base securely arranged around the rotating shaft and a plurality of commutator segments circumferentially arranged on the outer lateral surface of the insulating base; and a first sleeve, a second sleeve and a third sleeve arranged around the rotating shaft; wherein the first sleeve is located on a side of the rotor core away from the commutator and abuts against the rotor core, the second sleeve is located between the rotor core and the commutator, and the third sleeve is located on a side of the commutator away from the rotor core; one end of the third sleeve adjacent to the commutator has a fourth contact surface, and the fourth contact surface is in contact with the commutator, the third sleeve comprises a main body and first and second protrusions at opposite ends of the main body, the first protrusion has a diameter less than a diameter of the main body, and an end surface of the second protrusion away from the first protrusion is the fourth contact surface. 2. The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein one end of the first sleeve adjacent to the rotor core comprises a first contact surface, and the first contact surface is in contact with the rotor core. 3. The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein the first sleeve, the second sleeve and the third sleeve are fixed to the rotating shaft in an interference fit manner. 4. The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein opposite ends of the second sleeve comprise a second contact surface and a third contact surface, respectively, the second contact surface is in contact with the rotor core, and the third contact surface is in contact with the commutator. 5. The rotor according to claim 1 , wherein the first sleeve, the second sleeve and the third sleeve have the same maximum outer diameter. 6. The rotor according to claim 5 , wherein a maximum outer diameter of each of the first sleeve, the second sleeve and the third sleeve is less than 0.9 times an outer diameter of the commutator. 7. The rotor according to claim 6 , wherein the maximum outer diameter of each of the first sleeve, the second sleeve and the third sleeve is less than 0.8 times an outer diameter of the commutator. 8. The rotor according to claim 1 , further comprising an insulated bracket arranged around the rotor core, a first sleeve receiver and a second sleeve receiver that protrude from opposite ends of the insulated bracket, wherein the first sleeve receiver is arranged around the first sleeve, and the second sleeve receiver is arranged around the second sleeve. 9. A motor comprising a rotor of claim 1 . 10. A rotor of an electric motor comprising: a rotating shaft; a rotor core and a commutator fixed to the rotating shaft, the commutator comprising a cylindrical insulating base securely arranged around the rotating shaft and a plurality of commutator segments circumferentially arranged on the outer lateral surface of the insulating base; and a first sleeve, a second sleeve and a third sleeve arranged around the rotating shaft; wherein the first sleeve is located on a side of the rotor core away from the commutator and abuts against the rotor core, the second sleeve is located between the rotor core and the commutator, and the third sleeve is located on a side of the commutator away from the rotor core; the rotor further comprises an insulated bracket arranged around the rotor core, a first sleeve receiver and a second sleeve receiver that protrude from opposite ends of the insulated bracket, wherein the first sleeve receiver is arranged around the first sleeve, and the second sleeve receiver is arranged around the second sleeve.
