ABSTRACT:
A high speed electric motor for automotive applications that is designed to effectively minimize vibration of its component parts and thus suppress noise generated during its operation. The motor incorporates acoustic engineering principles including surface vibration control, acoustic radiation efficiency, active intensity field control and noise control using acoustic materials to reduce overall vibration of the motor components and the motor noise sensed by the passenger of the vehicle. A housing is disclosed for an electric motor of the type having an armature with an armature shaft and magnet means for inducing rotational movement of the armature shaft. The housing includes a housing member dimensioned to minimize noise energy and having a main body section with an internal chamber for at least partially accommodating the armature and the magnet means. The main body section defines an axial length and an internal cross-sectional dimension. The length is less than about 1.25 times the distance of the internal dimension. With this particular dimensional arrangement, the housing, in effect, desirably creates a reactive intensity field to at least partially counteract an active intensity field generated during operation. In a preferred embodiment, the axial length of the housing member ranges from about 0.50 to about 0.80 times the distance of the internal dimension to create the desired reactive field.
