In an example of the present disclosure, p is the number of pole pairs of the rotor, LCM (2*p, a) is the least common multiple between the number of the sides of the regularly-polygonal inner bore and the number of poles of the rotor; when LCM (2*p, a)=a, the angle θ is less than 360/[2*LCM(2*p, a)], and when LCM(2*p, a)≠a, the angle θ is less than 360/LCM(2*p, a). In another example of the present disclosure, Q is the number of slots of the rotor, LCM(Q, a) is the least common multiple between the number of the sides of the regularly-polygonal inner bore and the number of the slots of the rotor; when LCM (Q, a)=a, the angle θ is less than 360/[2*LCM(Q, a)], and when LCM(Q, a)≠a, the angle θ is less than 360/LCM(Q, a).

The shaft may be mounted into the regularly-polygonal inner bore 11 of the laminations 10 by cold pressing installation or hot pressing installation. The shaft has a radius r2 which satisfies:






r1+0.015≤r2≤r1+sin(90−360/2/a)*r/sin(90+θ/2)−r*cos(360/2/a),


where, r1 is a radius of an inscribed circle of the regularly-polygonal inner bore 11, r is a distance from a vertex of the regularly-polygonal inner bore 11 to the axis O of the motor rotor. In an example of the present disclosure, 0.04≤sin(90−360/2/a)*r/sin(90+θ/2)−r*cos(360/2/a).


Referring to FIGS. 13-19 and FIGS. 28-30, one or more positioning holes 2 or positioning notches 3 are provided in the multiple groups of laminations 10 according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the one or more positioning holes 2 or positioning notches 3 are parallel to an axis of the motor rotor and form through hole(s) or through notch(es). In an example of the present disclosure, multiple positioning holes 2 or positioning notches 3 are provided in the multiple groups of laminations 10, and the multiple positioning holes 2 or positioning notches 3 are distributed asymmetrically along a circumference. One or more positioning holes 2 may be positioned on a rotor yoke, which is a core portion between a permanent magnet slot and a rotor inner bore formed by the inner bores 11 of the multiple groups of laminations 10, or which is a core portion between a rotor slot and the rotor inner bore 11. Projections of the multiple positioning holes or positioning notches in a plane perpendicular to an axial direction of the rotor may not coincide with each other. As shown in FIGS. 16-19, one or more positioning notches 3 are formed on one or more of the sides of the regularly-polygonal inner bore 11 in each lamination of the multiple groups of laminations 10, for example, at center positions of the one or more of the sides, for positioning the rotor lamination 10 as well as reducing pressing force during press installation of the shaft. As shown in FIGS. 13-15, one or more positioning notches are positioned on an outer circumference of the motor rotor.


Referring to FIGS. 20-30, the multiple groups of laminations 10 include a first lamination 10A and a second lamination 10B according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the inner bore 11 of the first lamination 10A has an inner circumference having a substantially trapezoidal-shaped wave , the inner bore 11 of the second lamination 10B has an inner circumference having substantially trapezoidal-shaped wave, the trapezoidal-shaped wave has a wave valley 15 close to the axis of the motor rotor and a wave crest 16 close to an outer circumference of the motor rotor.

For example, a virtual line extending from a midpoint of the wave crest 16 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave in one of the inner bore 11 of the first lamination 10A and the inner bore 11 of the second lamination 10B to a corresponding midpoint of the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave of the other inner bore 11 goes through the axis of the motor rotor.

A center of the first circle and a center of the second circle may coincide with the axis O of the motor rotor. In an example of the present disclosure, a ratio of the width of the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave to the width of the wave crest 16 is greater than a ratio R1/R2, or is less than the ratio R1/R2. The width of the wave valley 15 may be less than or equal to π*R1/n, where n is the number of the wave crests 16 or wave valleys 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave at the inner circumference of each of the inner bore 11 of the first lamination 10A and the inner bore 11 of the second lamination 10B if the number of the wave crests 16 and the number of the wave valleys 15 are equal to each other. If the number of the wave crests 16 and the number of the wave valleys 15 are not equal to each other, n is the larger one among the number of the wave crests 16 and the number of the wave valleys 15. According to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the motor rotor further includes: a shaft having a radius of R3, wherein, R1≤R3<R2.

There may be an arc segment or a chamfer between the transition part 17 and the wave crest 16 as well as between the transition part 17 and the wave valley 15. Alternatively, the transition part may include a straight-line segment, or a curve segment or both.


Referring to FIGS. 20-30, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the radius R1 of the first circle of the inner bore 11 of the first lamination 10A is equal to the radius R1 of the first circle of the inner bore 11 of the second lamination 10B, the radius R2 of the second circle of the inner bore 11 of the first lamination 10A is equal to the radius R2 of the second circle of the inner bore 11 of the second lamination 10B, the width of the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave of the inner bore 11 of the first lamination 10A is equal to the width of the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave of the inner bore 11 of the second lamination 10B, and the width of the wave crest 16 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave of the inner bore 11 of the first lamination 10A is equal to the width of the wave crest 16 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave of the inner bore 11 of the second lamination 10B.


Referring to FIGS. 20-30, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the wave crest 16 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave is at a first arc which has a center at the axis O of the motor rotor and which has a radius of R5, the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave is at a second arc which has a center at the axis O of the motor rotor and which has a radius of R6. In an example of the present disclosure, referring to FIGS. 24-27, the transition part between the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave and the wave crest 16 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave may include a first connecting arc with a radius R7 and a second connecting arc with a radius R8, the first arc is tangent to the second connecting arc, the second arc is tangent to the first connecting arc, and the first connecting arc is tangent to the second connecting arc. This arrangement causes no sharp portion of stress concentration at the lamination. Before the shaft is pressed into the inner bore of the laminations, the arc-shaped valley 15 with the same center of the rotor may enable better positioning of the shaft, thereby reducing a possibility that the shaft is deviated from the axis O of the rotor when the shaft is pressed into the inner bore of the laminations. In an example of the present disclosure, a central angle a corresponding to the wave crest 16 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave may be greater than or equal to a central angle β corresponding to the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave, and cos(δ)=[(R6+R8)2+(R5−R7)2−(R7+R8)2]/[2*(R6+R8)*(R5−R7)], where, δ is an angle between a virtual line extending from a center of the first connecting arc to the axis O of the motor rotor and a virtual line extending from a center of the second connecting arc to the axis O of the motor rotor. In an example of the present disclosure, the central angle β corresponding to the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave is an integer that is greater than one but is less than 360/(2n)−δ, and R8=R7, where n is the number of the wave valleys 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave, and n is an even number.


Referring to FIGS. 28-30, according to an embodiment of the present disclosure, the wave crest 16 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave is configured with a groove 18, and a through hole 2 is configured at a side of the wave valley 15 of the trapezoidal-shaped wave close to the outer circumference of the lamination. The groove 18 may be used to relieve stress partially, and the through hole 2 may be used for positioning the lamination.


In addition, new embodiments can be achieved by combining the abovementioned embodiments of the present disclosure.
