[0024] A pump shaft 6 is fixedly installed at the center of the housing 2, that is, a mounting base 7 is installed at the center of the housing 2, and a mounting hole 8 is installed at the center of the mounting base 7.

A lower thrust bearing 12 is sleeved on the pump shaft 6, located on the upper surface of the mounting base 7, abutting against the lower end of the sliding bearing 10. An anti-detachment part is provided at the end of the pump shaft 6. In one embodiment, the anti-detachment part includes an anti-detachment ring groove 13 formed at the end of the pump shaft 6 and an anti-detachment retaining ring 14 snapped into the anti-detachment ring groove 13.
[0026] A rotor mounting groove 15 is provided on the surface of the impeller 9 facing the housing 2. The rotor mounting groove 15 is annularly arranged on the edge of the impeller 9. A rotor module 16 is disposed within the rotor mounting groove 15, and the rotor module 16 is also annularly arranged. A rotor shielding sleeve 17 is provided on the impeller 9 to close the rotor mounting groove 15, and the rotor shielding sleeve 17 closes the rotor mounting groove 15 and completely covers the rotor module 16. In one embodiment, the rotor shielding sleeve 17 is fixed to the impeller 9 by welding to cover the rotor module 16. In another embodiment, the rotor shielding sleeve 17 is fixed to the impeller 9 by snap-fit to cover the rotor module 16, and the contact surface between the rotor shielding sleeve 17 and the impeller 9 is sealed by a sealing ring. Through the above methods, the rotor module 16 can be sealed in the rotor mounting groove 15, ensuring that the external conveying medium will not come into contact with the rotor module 16. The specific implementation method can be selected according to the actual situation.
[0027] In one embodiment, the rotor module 16 includes a rotor yoke 161 and rotor magnets 162. The rotor yoke 161 is fixedly disposed in the rotor mounting groove 15. Multiple rotor magnets 162 are provided and are fixedly disposed on the rotor yoke 161 at circumferential intervals. The rotor magnets 162 are disposed on the lower surface of the rotor yoke 161 and face the housing 2.
[0028] In another embodiment, the rotor module 16 includes a rotor yoke 161 and a rotor magnetic ring. The rotor yoke 161 is fixedly disposed in the rotor mounting groove 15, and the rotor magnetic ring is fixedly disposed on the rotor yoke 161 circumferentially.

[0030] In one embodiment, the stator shielding plate 20 is fixed to the housing 2 by welding. In another embodiment, the stator shielding plate 20 is fixed to the end face of the housing 2 by end face pressing, and the contact surface between the stator shielding plate 20 and the housing 2 is sealed by a sealing ring. The stator shielding plate 20 is used to close the slot of the stator mounting groove 18 so that the stator module 19 is sealed in the stator mounting groove 18, ensuring that the external conveying medium will not come into contact with the stator module 19. The specific implementation method can be selected according to the actual situation.
[0031] In one embodiment, the stator module 19 includes a stator core 191 and a stator winding 192. The stator core 191 is fixedly disposed in the stator mounting slot 18, and the stator winding 192 is disposed on the stator core 191.
[0032] An electrical gap is formed between the stator shielding plate 20 and the rotor shielding sleeve 17. When current is passed through the stator module 19, the rotating magnetic field generated by the stator module 19 interacts with the inherent magnetic field of the rotor magnet 162 on the rotor module 16, forming an electromagnetic torque that drives the rotor module 16 to rotate. In turn, the rotor module 16 drives the impeller 9 to rotate, thereby realizing the conversion of electrical energy into mechanical energy.
[0033] When the impeller 9 is mounted on the pump shaft 6 via the sliding bearing 10, the impeller 9 has a certain vertical floating space, and there is also a certain gap between the lower surface of the impeller 9 and the upper surface of the mounting base 7 of the housing 2. In order to further balance the axial force of the impeller 9 on the pump shaft 6, a lower magnetic levitation magnet 22 is embedded in the mounting base 7, and an upper magnetic levitation magnet 21 is provided on the surface of the impeller 9 facing the housing 2. The upper magnetic levitation magnet 21 and the lower magnetic levitation magnet 22 are arranged opposite each other, with the same pole facing each other, so that the upper magnetic levitation magnet 21 and the lower magnetic levitation magnet 22 generate a repulsive force, and a magnetic levitation gap is formed between the upper magnetic levitation magnet 21 and the lower magnetic levitation magnet 22.
[0034] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the side wall of the pump housing 1 is provided with an upper water passage 23, which is connected to the pump chamber 3. The side wall of the housing 2 is provided with a lower water passage 24, and the bottom of the housing 2 is provided with a cooling water passage 25. When the housing 2 is assembled on the pump housing 1, one end of the lower water passage 24 is connected to the upper water passage 23, and the other end of the lower water passage 24 is connected to the cooling water passage 25.
[0035] The pump shaft 6 has a circulation channel 26 along its axial direction at its center. One end of the circulation channel 26 is connected to the cooling water channel 25, and the other end of the circulation channel 26 is connected to the side wall of the pump shaft 6. The circulation channel 26 extends along the end of the pump shaft 6 to the position of the sliding bearing 10.
[0036] In one embodiment, the cooling water passage 25 includes at least one concentrically arranged annular water passage 251. Adjacent annular water passages 251 are connected by a connecting water passage 252. The lower water inlet 24 is connected to the outermost annular water passage 251, and the circulation channel 26 is connected to the innermost annular water passage 251. It is worth noting that the connection between the lower water inlet 24 and the outermost annular water passage 251 is far away from the connecting water passage 252 of the outermost annular water passage 251. The connecting water passage 252 of the outermost annular water passage 251 is far away from the connecting water passage 252 of the innermost annular water passage 251. The connecting water passage 252 of the innermost annular water passage 251 and the connection between the circulation channel 26 and the innermost annular water passage 251 are far away from each other.
[0037] In another embodiment, the cooling water passage 25 is arranged in a spiral shape, with one end of the cooling water passage 25 connected to the other end of the lower water inlet 24, and the other end of the cooling water passage 25 connected to one end of the circulation channel 26. No accompanying drawings are shown in this embodiment.
[0038] With the above configuration, the conveying medium enters from the upper water passage 23 to the lower water passage 24. As the lower water passage 24 enters the annular water passage 251, the conveying medium can travel through the entire annular water passage 251 before entering the next layer of annular water passage 251, and then be discharged from the circulation channel 26 after passing through the entire annular water passage 251.
[0039] The conveying medium discharged through the circulation channel 26 enters the sliding bearing 10, which can lubricate the sliding bearing 10. A part of the conveying medium is discharged from between the upper thrust bearing 11 and the sliding bearing 10, and another part of the conveying medium is discharged from between the lower thrust bearing 12 and the sliding bearing 10, thereby completing the circulation of the conveying medium in the canned pump.
[0040] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application.
