[0014] The specific embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0015] As Figure 1 shown in a kind of outer rotor motor applied to dust catcher, including the tubular stator assembly 1 in center and the rotor assembly 2 of setting in the stator assembly 1 outside, the stator assembly 1 fixedly sleeve joint on a center tube 3, the front end of center tube 3 is stretched out outside stator assembly 1 and is extended to form annular front end plate 4 radially outward, the rear end of center tube 3 is rotatably connected with a rear end plate 5, and the rear end plate 5 is provided with vent hole 6 coaxial with the inner hole of center tube 3, the front end of rotor assembly 2 is rotatably connected with front end plate 4, and the rear end is fixedly connected with rear end plate 5, a large number of obliquely arranged blades 7 are evenly distributed on the rear end surface of rear end plate 5 around vent hole 6, and the ends of all blades 7 away from rear end plate 5 are commonly connected to a baffle 8, and the baffle 8, blades 7 and rear end plate 5 jointly form a centrifugal impeller.
[0016] In the embodiment, the rear end outer wall of center tube 3 is provided with external thread 9, the external thread 9 is located behind the stator assembly 1, a collar 10 is sleeved on the center tube 3, the inner wall of rear part of the collar 10 is provided with internal thread 11 matched with the external thread 9, the front part of the collar 10 is gap-fitted with the center tube 3, and the axial length of the front part of the collar 10 is greater than the distance between the stator assembly 1 and the external thread 9. A locating ring 12 coaxial with the center tube 3 is fixedly arranged on the front end surface of rear end plate 5, the locating ring 12 is wrapped around the outside of center tube 3 and is rotatably connected with the center tube 3 through rear end bearing 13, and the rear end bearing 13 is arranged between the collar 10 and the rear end plate 5. The collar 10 can be used to abut against the stator assembly 1 and can also be used to position the rear end bearing 13. The cooperation of the locating ring 12 and the rear end bearing 13 is used to improve the rotational stability of the rotor assembly 2.
[0017] In the embodiment, the rotor assembly 2 comprises a cylindrical metal shell 201 and a plurality of magnetic tiles 202 which are sequentially attached to the inner wall of the shell 201 in the circumferential direction, and the adjacent magnetic tiles 202 preferably abut each other. The front end of the front end plate 4 is retracted rearward to form an annular step 14, and the front end bearing 15 is sleeved on the step 14. The shell 201 is integrally formed with an annular front positioning plate 203 at the front end, and the front positioning plate 203 is located in front of the step 14 and abuts against the front end bearing 15. The rotor assembly 2 is rotationally connected with the front end plate 4 through the front end bearing 15. The front positioning plate 203 and the rear end plate 5 jointly limit the axial movement of the rotor assembly 2 along the central pipe 3, thereby improving the stability of the rotor assembly 2 during rotation.
[0018] The rear end of the shell 201 is fixedly connected with the rear end plate 5 through the bolts 16. Different specifications of the rear end plate 5 and the blades 7 connected to the rear end plate 5 can be replaced according to needs, so as to change the air suction volume of the outer rotor motor.
[0019] The stator assembly 1 in the embodiment comprises an outer tooth type stator core 101 fixedly sleeved on the central pipe 3, two skeletons 102 respectively arranged at the two ends of the stator core 101 and abutting against the two ends of the stator core 101, and a plurality of windings 103 wound on the outer teeth of the stator core 101. A plurality of wire passing holes 17 are formed in the front end plate 4 for the wire terminals to pass out, and a plurality of internal thread holes 18 are also arranged on the front end plate 4 and extend from the front end of the front end plate 4 to the rear end for connection with the support in the dust collector through fasteners.
[0020] The working process of the outer rotor motor applied to the dust collector is as follows: Figure 1 As shown in the outer rotor motor applied to the dust collector, in use, the motor is installed in the dust collector, the front end plate 4 is fixedly connected to the internal support of the dust collector through the bolts matched with the internal thread holes 18, and the central pipe 3 is communicated with the internal air duct of the dust collector. Then, the wire terminals protruding out of the wire passing holes 17 are connected with the circuit of the dust collector, and the air outlet hole opposite to the blades is formed on the dust collector. In this way, when the motor is started, the rotor assembly 2 drives the rear end plate 5 and the blades 7 to rotate at high speed, the rotation of the blades 7 drives the air inside the blades 7 to rotate at high speed and flow outward under the centrifugal force, so that the center of the annularly arranged blades 7 forms a negative pressure, and the internal air duct of the dust collector forms a high-speed airflow flowing to the central pipe 3, thereby forming a negative pressure at the dust suction port of the dust collector to absorb dust.
[0021] The air flowing into the center tube 3 from the internal air duct of the vacuum cleaner is normal temperature air, which is low in temperature, and thus cools the center tube 3 when passing through the center tube 3. The center tube 3 is fixedly connected to the stator assembly 1 and closely adheres to the stator assembly 1, and thus further reduces the working temperature of the stator assembly 1, prolonging the service life of the motor. After passing through the center tube 3, the air flow enters the center of the ring formed by the blades 7, and flows along the radial direction of the center tube 3 outward under the action of centrifugal force, and is directly discharged out of the vacuum cleaner through the air outlet hole on the vacuum cleaner.
[0022] After the outer rotor motor is used, the air flow is not substantially blocked in the entire air flow process, and thus the air flow resistance is greatly reduced, the suction force of the vacuum cleaner is further improved, and the motor energy consumption and the noise of the vacuum cleaner are reduced.
[0023] The above embodiments only exemplarily illustrate the principles and effects of the present application, and part of the applied embodiments, and are not used to limit the present application. It should be noted that, for those skilled in the art, without departing from the concept of the present application, a number of modifications and improvements can be made, which are all within the protection scope of the present application.
