  • DC Motor explained - in this video we look at how does a dc motor work to understand the basic working principle of a DC motor. We consider conventional current, electron flow, the winding, armature, rotor, shaft, stator, brushes, brush arms, terminals, emf, electromagnets, magnetic attraction as well as detailed animations for how the dc motor works.

    As a person with modest electrical knowledge, I've always been confused as to how you'd know if a given DC source was built for current to flow from positive to negative, or negative to positive. They're both used all over the place. This video taught me the terms "electron flow" and "conventional current." Confusion resolved! Holy crap, thanks so much!

    Note that computer fans does NOT use "conventional" DC motors, but instead uses electronically controlled, brushless motors. These use a opposite construction, where the permanent magnet is embedded in the rotor, and the coils are in the stator. A positional feedback device, for example a hall effect switch or optical sensor, is used to measure the position of the rotor, and then electronically switch on and off the currents to the coil to drive the fan, creating a kind of "electronic" communitator instead of an mechanical one.
    These work kind of like an variable frequency drive, but uses square wave instead of a smooth frequency, and the frequency is directly controlled by the position of the motor. Most newer computer fans have a PWM input (4-pin) instead of the fixed speed 3-pin one, where the PWN input tells the microcontroller in the fan to adjust its coil current outputs to regulate the speed of the fan.

      As far as the windings are concerned even brushed DC motors are "AC" since switching polarity is the purpose of the commutator. A BLDC motor is simply electronically commutated hence it's still considered DC.

    DC motors can be used to make a LEGO vehicle, and that's actually why I'm here. I'm trying to learn how to make each system within a tank, but with LEGO Technic pieces, except, I want to develop my own. I want to make a tank that can do things
    like:
    1. Move forward or in reverse at different speeds. (requires a gear-shifter)
    2. Rotate 360° (One tread moves in reverse while the other tread moves forward with equal torque and speed.)
    3. Tread suspension (Traverse heightened obstacles while still maintaining the maximum tread-to-ground coverage for optimized traction.)
    4. Contains an isolated turret that can rotate 360° separate from the chassis, and adjust it's cannon at least 35° of total vertical rotation, 30° positive and 5° negative.
    5. Autoloading mechanism for the turret.
    6. Firing mechanism for the turret that generates enough consistent force for accuracy within a reasonable range. (Not more than 1-3 meters)
    7. Camera with sight markers for gauging where the payload will make contact.
    As for what I want the payload to be, I don't know, but I imagine it needs to be aerodynamic in shape, and must weigh less than 2 grams.
    Bonus: if I could get a vaporizer and a chamber in the chassis that runs the liquid vapor through a tube, and out through an additional barrel attached to the main cannon, it could double as a smoke bomb that simulates a flame-thrower. Theoretically, I could attach a second tube to the vaporizer that releases smoke to obscure IR/Radar target-locking and vision.
    Additionally, I would need to attach all of these systems to a controller so they can be operated remotely from the tank.
    All of these things require me to learn about the relationship between torque and speed, how motors work, as well as many other mechanical and mathematical techniques.
    This is the beginning, but it's fun learning all of this! So far, I've learned about how much this LEGO tank is gonna cost, which is around 1k USD. and torque/speed functions, and motor functions.
    Thanks for your help! Incredibly useful information for my lil goal. c:

    These diagrams and instructions are so well done. The first time I saw a dc motor like this was in the late 60s as a kid. I had a train set and the motor was like this. Later in the 70s I had a cassette tape recorder that that had one. Right now I have a robot vacuum cleaner that has 6 of these types of motors. 2 for the wheels to turn, 2 more for the wheels to levitate over bumps, 1 for the LiDAR mechanism, and 1 for the spinning side brush. I think I’ve replaced 2 of the motors that wore out so far. I know there are brushless motors too which seem to last longer. Not sure how they work.

    This video is a God send. I'm currently sitting in my Industrial maintenance course watching this video on the schools laptop because the books they're having us use completely suck. I'm currently in the Electrical Motor Controls for Integrated Systems and it doesn't really explain anything. I've been freaking out because I have a test on Chapter 13: DC Motors, I was so happy and relieved when I found this video that actually explains DC Motors. And a major bonus is it's animated so I can visually see what it does, what the different parts are, where they're located, ECT. Thank you so much, like I said earlier this is a God send. Thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you thank you....... Don't think I can say it enough lol

      What you are saying is 2000-year-Old Democritus's model of Atom. This means: for example, if there are 500 objects in your house then there are 500 types of Atoms. But the truth is, there are 92 (naturally occurring) types of atoms which combines in different combination to form 500 kinds of object. I feel Democritus was talking about Molecules without knowing about Atoms & Calling a Molecule an Atom

    How can the magnets be individually north and south? A magnet has to have two poles, you can't separate them.

    • @lordquench
      @lordquench Před 4 lety +6

      They each have both poles, but the only poles that matter are the ones facing inward toward the coil. That's probably why he labeled them as just north and south.

    • @jackjohnson1186
      @jackjohnson1186 Před 4 lety +1

      the other pole is still there. on the other side of the 2 permanent magnets Its probably difficult to illustrate on the program EIs using with shapes that angle like that.

      The place of brushes is taken up by electronics. In a BLDC the part with the permanent magnet rotates and the electronics do the commutation without any moving parts.

    When trying to determine which way a 3-coil DC motor is going to turn it's better not to use Fleming's left hand rule!! This will confuse a lot of people and it's not accurate!! Instead, you should use the second RIGHT HAND RULE, which determines the direction of the magnetic field of a coil when current flows through it!!

    Using tip:
    A stall current is the current volume when you hold the shaft still, when you are apply or design a product that is using DC motor, please try to keep the rated current (applying current with the product) at around 20%-30% of the stall current. Which especially for the carbon brush motors, high percentage of current creats sparks between brushes and commutators that might causes carbon powder and stay between the commutator segments, that will lead a short circuit.

    While quite a large part of the content I've studied during highschool, tech school in the Air Force and college after getting out of the military. It's always good to refresh that knowledge. Because I'm refreshing my prior knowledge of these subjects, I have discovered in every episode something that I didn't know before. So I am continuing my education and because I never know when the additional knowledge will come in handy with the latest job. You have an excellent channel with each subject broken down into easy to understand bites that allow people unfamiliar with the subjects to gain a basic understanding of how the components or circuits will work and why they are important for their ability to make things easier in life. Thank you for the hard work you put into these subjects. And making them simple and easy to understand for people that are unfamiliar with electronics.
