[0026] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0027] The electronic oil pump in the following embodiments can mainly provide flow power for the working medium of the vehicle lubrication system and / or cooling system, and specifically can provide flow power for the working medium of the lubrication system and / or cooling system in the vehicle transmission system.

[0028] See also Figure 1The electronic oil pump 100 includes a pump housing, a first rotor assembly 2, a stator assembly 4, a second rotor assembly 3 and an electronic control board assembly 6; the pump housing can form a pump cavity, and the first rotor assembly 2, the stator assembly 4, the second rotor assembly 3 and the electronic control board assembly 6 are placed in the pump cavity. In this embodiment, the pump cavity includes a first cavity 70, a second cavity 80 and a third cavity 90. The first rotor assembly 2 is arranged in the first cavity 70, the stator assembly 4 and the second rotor assembly 3 are arranged in the second cavity 80, and the electronic control board assembly 6 is arranged in the third cavity 90. The first cavity 70 and the second cavity 80 are connected, and the second cavity 80 and the third cavity 90 are not connected; the stator assembly 4 includes a stator core 41, an insulating frame 42 and a winding 43. The insulating frame 42 at least covers at least a portion of the surface of the stator core 41, and the winding 43 is wound around on the insulating frame 42; when the electronic oil pump 100 is working, the electronic control board assembly 6 controls the current in the winding 43 of the stator assembly 4 to change according to a predetermined rule, thereby controlling the stator assembly 4 to generate a changing excitation magnetic field. The second rotor assembly 3 rotates under the action of the excitation magnetic field, and the second rotor assembly 3 can directly or indirectly drive the first rotor assembly 2 to rotate. When the first rotor assembly 2 rotates, the volume of the hydraulic cavity between the first rotor assembly 2 changes, so that the working medium is pressed out to the outlet to generate flow power; in this embodiment, part of the working medium in the first cavity 70 can flow into the second cavity 80. Since the stator assembly 4 is arranged in the second cavity 80, the working medium located in the second cavity 80 can cool the stator assembly 4, which is beneficial to the heat dissipation of the stator assembly 4.

[0029] See also Figure 1 In this embodiment, the pump housing includes a pump cover 1, a first housing 7, and a second housing 8. The pump cover 1 and the first housing 7, and the first housing 7 and the second housing 8 are fixedly connected relative to each other. The pump cover 1, the first housing 7, and the second housing 8 are all made of metal. Of course, the material of the first housing can also be metal. Specifically, in this embodiment, the pump cover 1 and the first housing 7 are connected by screws or bolts. This arrangement makes the electronic oil pump more convenient to disassemble and assemble, thereby facilitating the maintenance of the first rotor assembly 2 of the electronic oil pump. Of course, the pump cover 1 and the first housing 7 can also be connected by other means, such as plugging, clamping, etc. The first housing 7 and the second housing 8 are fixedly connected. Specifically, the first housing 7 and the second housing 8 are connected by screws or bolts. On the one hand, this arrangement makes the electronic oil pump more convenient to disassemble and assemble. In this embodiment, since the electronic control board assembly 6 is disposed in the cavity between the first housing 7 and the second housing 8, this also facilitates the maintenance of the electronic control board assembly in the electronic oil pump. On the other hand, it can also make the connection between the first housing 7 and the second housing 8 more reliable. Of course, the first housing 7 and the second housing 8 can also be connected by plugging, clamping, or other means.

[0030] See also Figure 2The first rotor assembly 2 includes a first rotor 21 and a second rotor 22. The first rotor 21 includes a plurality of internal teeth, and the second rotor 22 includes a plurality of external teeth. A hydraulic chamber 801 is formed between the internal teeth of the first rotor 21 and the external teeth of the second rotor 22. In this embodiment, the hydraulic chamber 801 is also part of the first chamber 70. In this embodiment, the first rotor 21 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the second rotor 22. Figure 1 The electronic oil pump also includes an inlet 11 and an outlet (not shown). The working medium can enter the hydraulic chamber 801 through the inlet 11, and the working medium can leave the hydraulic chamber 801 through the outlet (not shown). Since there is a certain eccentricity between the first rotor 21 and the second rotor 22, when the second rotor 22 rotates, part of the external teeth of the second rotor 22 engages with part of the internal teeth of the first rotor 21, thereby driving the first rotor 21 to rotate. During the process of the first rotor 21 and the second rotor 22 rotating one circle, the volume of the hydraulic chamber 801 changes. Specifically, when the first rotor assembly 2 rotates from the starting point to a certain angle, the volume of the hydraulic chamber 801 gradually increases, thereby forming a local vacuum, and the working medium flows from the inlet. The port 11 is sucked into the hydraulic chamber 801. When the first rotor 21 and the second rotor 22 continue to rotate, the volume of the hydraulic chamber 801 originally filled with the working medium gradually decreases, and the working medium is squeezed, so that the working medium entering the hydraulic chamber 801 is pressed out to the outlet (not shown) to generate flow power; in this embodiment, the electronic oil pump 100 also includes a pump shaft 15, and the pump shaft 15 can drive part of the first rotor assembly 2 to rotate. Specifically, in this embodiment, the pump shaft 15 can drive the second rotor 22 to rotate. In this embodiment, the pump shaft 15 is connected to the second rotor 22 and the second rotor assembly 3. The second rotor assembly 3 drives the second rotor 22 to rotate through the pump shaft 15, thereby realizing the rotation of the first rotor assembly 2.

[0031] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a structural diagram of the first embodiment of the electronic oil pump in this application; the structure of the electronic oil pump in the first embodiment of this application will be introduced in detail below.

[0032] See also Figure 1 The electronic oil pump 100 further includes an isolator 5, at least part of which is disposed between the stator assembly 4 and the electronic control board assembly 6, the second cavity 80 being located on one side of the main body 51 of the isolator 5, and the third cavity 90 being located on the other side of the main body 51 of the isolator 5; see Figures 1 to 4 The electronic oil pump 100 further includes a heat conductor 9. In this embodiment, the heat conductor 9 is fixedly connected to the main body 51 of the isolating member 5. The heat conductor 9 passes through the main body 51 of the isolating member 5 along the axial direction parallel to the electronic oil pump. Specifically, in this embodiment, the heat conductor 9 is used as an insert and the isolating member 5 is injection molded. That is, the heat conductor 9 and the isolating member 5 are fixedly connected by injection molding.

[0033] See also Figures 1 to 6 The heat conducting member 9 includes a first portion 91, a second portion 92 and a connecting portion 93. The first portion 91 is located on one side of the main portion 51 of the isolating member 5, and the second portion 92 is located on the other side of the main portion 51 of the isolating member 5. The first portion 91 is located in the second cavity 80, and the second portion 92 is located in the third cavity 90. The connecting portion 93 is located between the first portion 91 and the second portion 92. The connecting portion 93 connects the first portion 91 and the second portion 92. The connecting portion 93 is fixedly connected to the isolating member 5 by injection molding. In this embodiment, the connection between the connecting portion 93 and the isolating member 5 is sealed. Specifically, see Figure 6 The isolating member 5 includes a first protrusion 52, which is protruding from the upper surface of the main body 51 of the isolating member 5, and the heat conducting member 9 passes through the first protrusion 52; the first protrusion 52 includes a groove 521, which is recessed from the upper surface of the first protrusion 52, and the groove 521 does not pass through the lower surface of the main body 51 of the isolating member 5, and the heat conducting member 9 passes through the groove 521, and the outer periphery of the heat conducting member 9 located in the groove 521 and the inner wall of the groove 521 are filled with sealant; this is conducive to preventing the working medium in the second cavity 80 from leaking to the third cavity 90 through the connection between the connecting portion 93 and the isolating member 5, thereby preventing the performance of the electric control board assembly 6 located in the third cavity 90 from being affected.

[0034] See also Figures 7 to 10 The electric control board assembly 6 includes a substrate 61, which includes a first hole 611, an upper plate layer 612, a lower plate layer 613 and at least one metal layer 614. Along a direction parallel to the thickness of the substrate 61, the metal layer 614 is located between the upper plate layer 612 and the lower plate layer 613. The upper plate layer 612 is closer to the main body 51 of the isolation member 5 than the lower plate layer 613. The first hole 611 extends from the upper surface of the upper plate layer 612 toward the lower plate layer 613, and the second portion 92 of the heat conductor 9 is located in the first hole 611; specifically, in this embodiment, the first hole 611 is set through. Of course, the first hole 611 can also be a blind hole.

[0035] See also Figures 1 to 10 The electronic control board assembly 6 further includes a temperature sensing unit 13, which is fixedly connected to the substrate 61. The temperature sensing unit 13 is located on one side of the second portion 92 of the heat conducting member 9 along the axial direction perpendicular to the electronic oil pump 100. A set distance is provided between the temperature sensing unit 13 and the second portion 92 of the heat conducting member 9. The metal layer closest to the temperature sensing unit 13 is defined as the nearest metal layer 6141. See FIG. Figure 12 , Figure 12This is a schematic diagram of a projection of the temperature sensing unit 13 in a direction parallel to the upper surface of the nearest metal layer 6141. This is only for illustration purposes and does not limit the shape and size of the nearest metal layer 6141 and the temperature sensing unit 13. Figure 12 , the temperature sensing unit 13 is projected in a direction parallel to the upper surface of the nearest metal layer 6141, and at least part of the projection of the temperature sensing unit 13 is located on the nearest metal layer 6141. The temperature sensing unit 13 can detect the temperature of the nearest metal layer 6141 or the temperature sensing unit 13 can detect the temperature of the upper plate layer 612 in contact with the nearest metal layer 6141; there are two implementations: the first implementation is: see Figure 10 and Figure 12 The temperature sensing unit 13 includes a detection portion 131 and an electrical connection portion 132. The detection portion 131 is supported on the upper plate layer 612. One end of the electrical connection portion 132 is electrically connected to the detection portion 131, and the other end of the electrical connection portion 132 is electrically connected to the circuit of the upper plate layer 612. In this embodiment, the electrical connection portion is located below the detection portion 131. The electrical connection portion 132 here can be a solder point or other structure for electrical connection; the second implementation is: see Figure 11 and Figure 12 The upper plate layer 612 has a through hole 6120, and the temperature sensing unit 13 includes a detection part 131 and an electrical connection part 132. At least part of the detection part 131 is located in the through hole 6120. The detection part 131 is supported on the nearest metal layer 6141 and contacts the nearest metal layer 6141. One end of the electrical connection part 132 is electrically connected to the detection part 131, and the other end of the electrical connection part 132 is electrically connected to the circuit of the upper plate layer 612. In this embodiment, the electrical connection part is located below the detection part 131. The electrical connection part 132 here can be a solder joint or other structure for electrical connection. In this embodiment, the temperature sensing unit 13 can be a thermistor or other temperature detection element such as a temperature sensor.

[0036] In the above manner, on the one hand, the temperature sensing unit 13 is integrated with the electronic oil pump 100, so that the temperature sensing unit 13 does not need to be mechanically and electrically connected to the external system separately, which is conducive to relatively reducing the mechanical connection and line connection of the system, and further conducive to simplifying the system structure, making the system structure more compact; on the other hand, since the first portion 91 of the heat conductor 9 is located in the second cavity 80 and contacts the working medium located in the second cavity 80, the heat of the working medium in the second cavity 80 will be transferred to the heat conductor 9, and since the second portion 92 of the heat conductor 9 is partially located in the first hole 611, the heat of the heat conductor 9 will be transferred to the heat conductor 9 at least through the second portion 92 located in the first hole 611. The closest metal layer 6141, in the first embodiment described above, the heat of the closest metal layer 6141 will be transferred to the detection part 131 of the temperature sensing unit 13 through the upper plate layer. The temperature sensing unit 13 can indirectly know the temperature of the working medium in the second cavity 80 or the parameters related to the temperature of the working medium in the second cavity 80 by detecting the temperature of the upper plate layer; in the second embodiment described above, the heat of the closest metal layer 6141 will be directly transferred to the detection part 131 of the temperature sensing unit 13. The detection part 131 can indirectly know the temperature of the working medium in the second cavity 80 or the parameters related to the temperature of the working medium in the second cavity 80 by detecting the temperature of the closest metal layer 6141.

[0037] See also Figure 10 In the first embodiment, the minimum gap distance between the temperature sensing unit 13 and the second portion 92 of the heat conducting member is defined as the first distance (L1), the minimum distance between the nearest metal layer 6141 and the second portion 92 located in the first hole 611 is defined as the second distance (L2), the metal layer closest to the temperature sensing unit 13 is defined as the nearest metal layer 6141, and the minimum distance between the nearest metal layer 6141 and the temperature sensing unit 13 is defined as the third distance (L3). The first distance (L1), the second distance (L2) and the third distance (L3) satisfy the following relationship: L1>L2+L3; in this way, the first distance (L1) of the heat conducting member is defined as the minimum gap distance between the second portion 92 and the first hole 611. The minimum path for the heat of the second part 92 to be transferred to the temperature sensing unit 13 along the second distance (L1) and the third distance (L3) is smaller than the minimum path for the heat of the second part 92 of the heat conductor to be transferred to the temperature sensing unit 13 along the first distance (L1), so that the speed at which the heat of the second part 92 of the heat conductor is transferred to the temperature sensing unit 13 along the second distance (L2) and the third distance (L3) is greater than the speed at which the heat of the second part 92 of the heat conductor is transferred to the temperature sensing unit 13 along the first distance. Since heat transfer through air will result in heat loss, the above method is beneficial to improving the accuracy of temperature detection by the temperature sensing unit 13 compared with heat transfer through air.

[0038] Specifically, see Figure 10In this embodiment, at least part of the outer surface of the second portion 92 located in the first hole 611 is arranged in contact with the nearest metal layer 6141; this makes the minimum distance between the nearest metal layer 6141 and the second portion 92 located in the first hole 611, that is, the second distance (L2) is zero, so that the heat of the second portion 92 of the heat conductor 9 can be directly transferred to the nearest metal layer 6141, which is beneficial to reduce the heat loss of the second portion 92 of the heat conductor 9, and further helps to improve the accuracy of temperature detection by the temperature sensing unit.

[0039] See also Figure 9 , the electric control board assembly 6 also includes a heat-generating electronic component 62, which is fixedly connected to the substrate 61, and the connection surface corresponding to the heat-generating electronic component 62 on the substrate 61 is opposite to the connection surface corresponding to the temperature sensing unit 13 on the substrate 61; specifically, in this embodiment, the substrate 61 includes a first surface 615 and a second surface 616, the first surface 615 is closer to the main body 51 of the isolation member 5 than the second surface 616, in this embodiment, the first surface 615 is the upper surface of the upper plate layer 612, and the second surface 616 is the lower surface of the lower plate layer 613, the temperature sensing unit 13 is fixedly connected to the first surface 615, and the heat-generating electronic component 62 is fixedly connected to the second surface 616, which is conducive to reducing the influence of the heat generated by the heat-generating electronic component 62 on the temperature sensing unit 13, thereby helping to reduce interference with the detection of the temperature sensing unit; the above-mentioned "heat-generating electronic components 62" mainly include common electronic components that are prone to heat, such as diodes, MOS tubes, inductors, resistors, and capacitors.

[0040] See also Figure 1 and Figure 3 In this embodiment, one end of the first portion 91 of the heat conductor 9 is connected to the insulating frame 42 of the stator assembly 4. The first portion 91 of the heat conductor 9 is not electrically connected to the winding 43 of the stator assembly 4. In this embodiment, the heat conductor 9 is made of a conductive metal material. One end of the second portion 92 of the heat conductor 9 is electrically connected to the electric control board assembly 6. Specifically, in this embodiment, one end of the second portion 92 of the heat conductor 9 is electrically connected to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6; see Figure 1 The electronic oil pump 100 further includes a conductive member 10, which is located in the second cavity 80. The conductive member 10 is fixedly connected to and in contact with the second portion 92 of the heat-conducting member 9. In this embodiment, the conductive member 10 and the heat-conducting member 9 are processed separately and then assembled. Of course, the conductive member 10 and the heat-conducting member 9 can also be an integrated structure; see Figure 1At least part of the conductive member 10 is located in the inner cavity of the first shell 7. The material of the first shell 7 is a metal material. The first shell 7 partially surrounds the outer periphery of the stator assembly 4. The stator assembly 4 is located in the inner cavity of the first shell 7. In this way, when the winding 43 of the stator assembly 4 radiates electromagnetic waves outward or when the external system radiates electromagnetic waves to the first shell, on the one hand, the electromagnetic waves radiated by the winding 43 can be absorbed by the first shell 7 itself, which is beneficial to prevent the electromagnetic waves radiated by the winding from affecting the external system or preventing the electromagnetic waves of the external system from affecting the performance of the electronic oil pump; see Figure 1 and Figure 3 , part of the conductive member 10 is arranged in contact with the first shell 7, and another part of the conductive member 10 is in contact with the heat conductive member 9; through the above method, since one end of the second part 92 of the heat conductive member 9 is electrically connected to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6, part of the conductive member 10 is arranged in contact with the first shell 7, and another part of the conductive member 10 is in contact with the heat conductive member 9, so that the first shell 7 is indirectly electrically connected to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6, and the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6 is grounded to the outside. In this way, on the one hand, the first shell 7 can radiate the electromagnetic waves absorbed by itself to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6. When the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6 is grounded to the outside, the electromagnetic waves absorbed by the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6 are radiated to the external grounding point, which is beneficial to reduce the amount of electromagnetic waves absorbed and accumulated by the first shell 7 itself, thereby reducing the impact of the electromagnetic waves absorbed and accumulated by the first shell 7 itself on the performance of the external system or the electronic oil pump; on the other hand, when the first When there is static electricity on the surface of the shell 7, the static electricity on the surface of the first shell 7 can be conducted to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6 through the conductive member 10. When the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6 is grounded to the outside, the static electricity on the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6 is further conducted to the external grounding point. This is beneficial to reducing the static electricity accumulated on the surface of the first shell 7, and further beneficial to reducing the impact of the static electricity accumulated on the surface of the first shell 7 on the performance of the external system and / or the electric control board assembly 6. In addition, in this embodiment, the stator core 41 is in contact with the first shell 7, the second shell 8 is in contact with the first shell 7, and the pump cover 1 is in contact with the first shell 7. In this way, the stator core 41 and the second shell 8 are electrically connected to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly. In this way, the static electricity on the surface of the stator core 41, the second shell 8 and the pump cover 1 or the electromagnetic waves absorbed by themselves can be conducted to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6. The static electricity or electromagnetic waves conducted to the reference ground layer of the electric control board assembly 6 are then conducted to the external grounding point. See Figure 1 In this embodiment, one end of the conductive member 10 contacts the first housing 7 . Of course, at this time, one end of the conductive member 10 may also contact the stator core 41 or the second housing 8 .

[0041] See also Figure 1In this embodiment, the heat conductor 9 is not electrically connected to the winding of the stator assembly 4. In this way, the current passing through the winding will not pass through the heat conductor 9, which helps to reduce the heat generated by the winding being transferred to the heat conductor 9. Since the heat conductor 9 needs to transfer heat to the nearest metal layer, this helps to prevent the heat generated by the winding from being transferred to the nearest metal layer through the heat conductor 9, thereby helping to reduce interference with the temperature sensing unit. Of course, the first portion 91 of the heat conductor 9 can also be electrically connected to the winding. In this case, the heat conductor 9 can serve as the energized pin end of the winding, that is, the heat conductor 9 will have a current passing through the winding. Since the first portion 91 of the heat conductor 9 is located in the second cavity, the working medium in the second cavity will have a certain cooling effect on the heat conductor 9. Therefore, when the current passing through the winding passes through the heat conductor 9, it will not cause a large deviation in the detection result of the temperature sensing unit. Therefore, through the above method, in this embodiment, the heat conductor 9 can be used for heat conduction on the one hand and for electrical connection on the other hand. This simple structure helps to reduce the number of parts and thus save costs.
