Important Concepts
  • How Motors Work
  • The Components of a DC Electric Motor
  • Whats inside the motor box?
  • The parts of the motor and what they do!
  • Motor Control
  • How to change directions
  • Concepts of Speed, Torque, Gear Ratio
  • Practical considerations
  • Noise, slippage, limits of operation speed,
    torque

5
DC Electric Motors
  • Electric Motors or Motors convert electrical
    energy to mechanical motion
  • Motors are powered by a source of electricity
    either AC or DC.
  • DC Electric Motors use Direct Current (DC)
    sources of electricity
  • Batteries
  • DC Power supply
  • Principle of How Motors Work
  • Electrical current flowing in a loop of wire will
    produce a magnetic field across the loop.
  • When this loop is surrounded by the field of
    another magnet, the loop will turn, producing a
    force (called torque) that results in mechanical
    motion.

6
Motor Basics
  • Motors are powered by electricity, but rely on
    principles of magnetism to produce mechanical
    motion.
  • Inside a motor we find
  • Permanent magnets,
  • Electro-magnets,
  • Or a combination of the two.

7
Magnets
  • A magnet is an object that possesses a magnetic
    field, characterized by a North and South pole
    pair.
  • A permanent magnet (such as this bar magnet)
    stays magnetized for a long time.
  • An electromagnet is a magnet that is created when
    electricity flows through a coil of wire. It
    requires a power source (such as a battery) to
    set up a magnetic field.

8
A Simple Electromagnet
  • A Nail with a Coil of Wire
  • Q How do we set up a magnet?
  • A The battery feeds current through the coil of
    wire. Current in the coil of wire produces a
    magnetic field (as long as the battery is
    connected).

9
A Simple Electromagnet
  • A Nail with a Coil of Wire
  • Q - How do we reverse the poles of this
    electromagnet?
  • A By reversing the polarity of the battery!

10
The Electromagnet in a Stationary Magnetic Field
  • If we surround the electromagnet with a
    stationary magnetic field, the poles of the
    electromagnet will attempt to line up with the
    poles of the stationary magnet.
  • The rotating motion is transmitted to the shaft,
    providing useful mechanical work. This is how DC
    motors work!

OPPOSITE POLES ATTRACT!
11
DC Motor Operation Principles
  • Once the poles align, the nail (and shaft) stops
    rotating.
  • How do we make the rotation continue?
  • By switching the poles of the electromagnet. When
    they line up again, switch the poles the other
    way, and so on.
  • This way, the shaft will rotate in one direction
    continuously!

12
Motor Terminology
  • Thus, the motion of a DC motor is caused by the
    interaction of two magnetic fields housed inside
    the motor.
  • These two magnetic fields can be described by
    where they are located inside the motor.
  • The stationary parts of the motor make up the
    STATOR.
  • The Stator Stays Put!
  • The rotating parts of the motor constitute the
    ROTOR.
  • The Rotor Rotates!
  • The Stator houses the Permanent Field Magnet.
  • The electronically-controlled magnet, called the
    Armature, resides on the Rotor.

13
Motor Terminology
  • The magnetic poles of the Armature field will
    attempt to line up with the opposite magnetic
    poles on the Stator. (Opposites ATTRACT).
  • Once opposite poles align, the movement of the
    motor would stop.
  • However, to ensure continuous movement of the
    motor, the poles of the Armature field are
    electronically reversed as it reaches this point,
    so it keeps turning to keep the motor shaft
    moving along in the same direction!
  • This electronic switching of the Armature poles
    is accomplished using Brushes and Commutators.

14
Brushed DC Motor Components

15
Brushed DC Motor ComponentDescriptions
  • The Stator is a Permanent Field Magnet
  • The Armature
  • Is an electromagnet comprised of coils wound
    around 2 or more poles of the metal rotor core
  • Commutator
  • Attached to the rotor and turns with the rotor to
    mechanically switch direction of current going to
    the armature coils
  • Brushes
  • Stationary attached to battery leads. These
    metal brushes touch the Commutator terminals as
    it rotates delivering electric current to the
    commutator terminals.
  • Axle or Shaft
  • Moves in rotational motion

16

17
How the Commutator Works
  • As the rotor turns, the commutator terminals also
    turn and continuously reverse polarity of the
    current it gets from the stationary brushes
    attached to the battery.

18
Controlling Motor Direction
  • To change the direction of rotation
  • Simply switch the polarity of the battery leads
    going to the motor (that is, switch the and
    battery leads)

19
Controlling Motor Direction
  • In the TekBot, this switching is done using an
    H-bridge motor control circuit.
  • A signal is sent from your hand-held tether to
    the TekBot when you tell each wheel to go forward
    or reverse.
  • This signal goes to the H-bridge circuitry on the
    TekBot which sends the correct polarity to the
    battery leads wired to the TekBot motors to
    accomplish the desired rotation.

Inside a Toy Motor(Similar to TekBot Motor)
21
Toy DC Motor, cont.
  • End Views of Motor
  • Axle
  • Battery Leads
  • Axle will turn if connect battery leads to a 9V
    battery
  • Reverse battery leads and axle will turn the
    Opposite direction!
  • The white nylon cap on the motor can be removed
    to reveal

22
A View of the Brushes
  • Inside the Nylon cap are the Brushes
  • Brushes can be made of various types of metal.
  • Their purpose is to transfer power to the
    commutator as it spins.

23
Inside the Motor, cont.
  • The Axle is the rotating part of the motor that
    holds the armature and commutator.
  • This armature is comprised of 3 electromagnets.
    (3-Pole DC Motor)
  • Each electromagnet is a set of stacked metal
    plates with thin copper wire wound around each.
  • The two ends of each coil wire is terminated and
    wired to a contact on the commutator.
  • Thus, there are 3 commutator contacts in all.

24
Inside the Motor, cont.
  • The final piece is the stator, a permanent field
    magnet.
  • It is formed by the motor enclosure and two
    curved permanent magnets (2 Pole 1 North, 1
    South) shown.

25
Torque Concepts
  • The movement of the motor comes from the
    interaction of magnetic fields.
  • A magnetic force that is perpendicular to the
    magnetic field and the current in the coils
    delivers a rotational force - torque - that turns
    the axle of the motor.
  • Intuitively, the higher the torque the greater
    the force of rotational movement.
  • The higher the motor input current, the greater
    the torque on the output.

26
Speed Concepts
  • Speed of rotation of the output shaft is measured
    in RPM Revolutions Per Minute.
  • The speed of rotation is directly proportional to
    the voltage applied to the armature windings.
  • This is a linear relationship up to the motors
    max speed.
  • These motors produce high speed, low torque axle
    rotation, which is improved by a gear reduction
    to reduce speed and increase torque on the output
    shaft.
