[0033] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0034] The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0035] like Figures 1-9 As shown, the first aspect of the present application provides a motor cooling system, comprising: a housing 1, a stator 2, a sheath 3, a magnetic steel and a rotating shaft 5 arranged in sequence from the outside to the inside, the magnetic steel being formed by splicing a plurality of magnetic steel segments 4 in sequence, as shown in FIG. Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, radial cooling grooves 6 are formed on both end surfaces of each magnetic steel segment 4. Every two adjacent radial cooling grooves 6 constitute a first radial cooling hole 7. The first radial cooling hole 7 is used to introduce the cooling medium into the interior of the rotor, thereby cooling the magnetic steel. Several cooling passages are passed through the first radial cooling holes 7 in the direction of the casing 1. In addition, the radial cooling grooves 6 can also play a positioning role in parallel magnetization, and the segmented design of the magnetic steel can also reduce rotor losses.

[0036] When the rotor needs to be cooled, it is only necessary to pass the cooling medium into the cooling passage. At this time, the cooling medium will enter the first radial cooling hole through the cooling passage, thereby cooling the magnetic steel, and then achieving sufficient cooling of the inside of the rotor. The segmented design of the magnetic steel will effectively reduce the turbine loss of the magnetic steel, thereby effectively avoiding the permanent magnet temperature from being too high and ensuring the normal operation of the rotor.

[0037] Specifically, the cooling path includes:

[0038] A cooling medium inlet 8 is provided on the housing 1;

[0039] The cooling medium circulation outlet can be opened on the casing or on the end cover according to actual needs.

[0040] The second radial cooling hole 9 is provided on the stator 2 and is connected to the cooling medium inlet 8;

[0041] The third radial cooling holes 10 are provided on the jacket 3 and are respectively connected with the first radial cooling holes 7 and the second radial cooling holes 9, and the outer wall of the jacket 3 is provided with second circumferential cooling grooves 14 connected with a plurality of the third radial cooling holes 10. In addition, in this embodiment, the design of slotting the jacket can further reduce the rotor loss. Preferably, the jacket is made of an alloy material or a fiber composite material.

[0042] When the rotor needs to be cooled, it is only necessary to pass the cooling medium into the cooling passage. At this time, the cooling medium will pass through the cooling medium inlet 8, the second radial cooling hole 9, the third radial cooling hole 10 in sequence, and finally enter the first radial cooling hole 7, thereby cooling the magnetic steel and further achieving sufficient cooling of the inside of the rotor. The segmented design of the magnetic steel will effectively reduce the turbine loss of the magnetic steel, thereby effectively avoiding excessive temperature of the permanent magnet and ensuring the normal operation of the rotor.

[0043] According to one embodiment of the present invention, in order to further cool the inside of the rotor, that is, to cool the shaft, as shown in FIG. Figure 6 As shown, the inner wall surface of the jacket 3 is further provided with a plurality of axial cooling grooves 11, each of which intersects with the corresponding third radial cooling hole 10; Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, the end surface of the rotating shaft 5 is also provided with a first axial cooling hole 12 connected to the axial cooling groove 11; Figure 1 As shown, during cooling, the cooling medium will enter the axial cooling groove 11 through the third radial cooling hole 10, and then the cooling medium will flow along the axial cooling groove 11 to the end of the shaft until it flows into the first axial cooling hole 12, thereby achieving sufficient cooling of the shaft. Figure 9 As shown, this embodiment is a solid magnetic steel surface-mounted motor, and the rotating shaft is set as two short shafts in the front and rear, and the two short shafts are set at both ends of the solid magnetic steel. In order to ensure sufficient cooling for the two short shafts, a first axial cooling hole 12 is opened on both short shafts.

[0044] According to one embodiment of the present invention, in order to further achieve sufficient cooling of the rotating shaft, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 and Figure 9 As shown, a plurality of first circumferential cooling grooves 13 are further provided on the outer wall surface of the mating section between the rotating shaft 5 and the inner wall surface of the sleeve 3. Specifically, the first circumferential cooling grooves 13 are connected with the axial cooling grooves 11. The cooling medium flowing out through the axial cooling grooves 11 will enter the first circumferential cooling grooves 13, thereby achieving further cooling of the rotating shaft.

[0045] According to one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, this embodiment is a ring-shaped magnetic steel surface-mounted motor, the magnetic steel is set as a ring-shaped magnetic steel, and a plurality of second axial cooling holes 15 are opened on the rotating shaft 5 along the direction close to the end, and the second axial cooling holes 15 are connected to the first radial cooling holes 7; preferably, the number of the second axial cooling holes 15 is adapted to the number of magnetic poles provided on the ring-shaped magnetic steel; in addition to draining the cooling medium introduced from the first radial cooling holes 7 to between the magnetic steel and the rotating shaft, the second axial cooling holes 15 also change the direction of the magnetic lines of force near the magnetic poles, thereby improving the anti-demagnetization ability of the rotating shaft itself.

[0046] According to one embodiment of the present invention, in order to cool the stator, the housing 1 is further provided with a water cooling channel for cooling the stator 2; the water cooling channel can be arranged on the housing in a circumferential or spiral manner.

[0047] A second aspect of the present application provides a motor, comprising: a motor cooling system as described in any one of the above items.
