Abstract:

A Halbach tubular permanent magnet linear motor with a non-uniform teeth structure is proposed in this study to solve the problems of high ripple and low force density of a linear electromagnetic active suspension system. The end force model is derived using the analytical method, and the effects of non-uniform teeth structure on the output performance of the motor are analyzed. Based on the analysis results, five parameters, including the axial length and radial cut length of the end teeth, thickness and radial-magnetization length of the permanent magnet, and length of the inner teeth, are selected as optimization factors. Taguchi and response surface methods are adopted to optimize the maximum output force and minimum ripple of force simultaneously, and the optimal parameters are obtained. Finally, a prototype is manufactured and an experimental platform is set up to carry out the no-load and load experiments to verify the effectiveness of the proposed structure and its optimization methods.
