20230062284
This application claims a benefit under 35 U.S.C § 119(a) of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2021-0116677 filed on Sep. 2, 2021, on the Korean Intellectual Property Office, the entire disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference for all purposes.
The present disclosure relates to a motor device having a magnetic bearing function and capable of simultaneously performing rotation and linear motions, and a motor system having the same.
A linear/rotation combined actuator that moves a moving object in a Z-axis direction and rotates around the Z-axis may be assembled into an industrial robot, a transport device, etc. For example, a head shaft of a chip mounter is required to linearly move a moving object such as a suction pad for adsorbing an electronic component, a tool, etc. in a Z-axis direction or rotate the body around the Z-axis. The linear motion of the moving object in the Z-axis direction is required to mount the electronic component on a surface of a printed circuit board, and the rotational motion of the moving object in a 0 direction is required to position a rotation angle of the electronic component.
A linear/rotary combined pulse motor in which a conventional linear pulse motor and a conventional rotary pulse motor are combined with each other in an axial direction has been developed as the linear/rotation combined actuator capable of the linear motion and the rotational motion. In such a linear/rotary combined pulse motor, a rotor of the rotary pulse motor is embodied as a hollow shaft, and a spline bearing provided with a rotation prevention mechanism is disposed in the hollow shaft. However, in the conventional linear/rotary combined pulse motor, mechanical bearings are used and linear and rotation motion drivers are connected in series to each other, so that a length of a system in the axis direction is increased.
