TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The present application relates to the field of inner rotor motor heat dissipation, and particularly relates to a rotor heat dissipation structure of an inner rotor motor. BACKGROUND
[0002] An inner rotor permanent magnet motor (hereinafter referred to as a motor) mainly comprises a stator, a rotor, a shell, a shaft and other main components. In order to improve the power density of the motor, the current density of the motor winding needs to be increased, which leads to an increase in the heat generated by the motor. Therefore, a water (or liquid cooling) cooling method is usually used to improve the heat dissipation efficiency, so as to maximize the reduction of the temperature of the motor and maximize the power density of the motor. The current motor water cooling (or liquid cooling) structure mainly comprises a single-path series or multi-path parallel water channel (such as an S-shaped water channel, a spiral water channel, a double-spiral water channel, etc.) processed on the inner wall of the motor shell, so that the cooling water passes through the water channel to take away the heat of the motor shell (i.e. the stator winding), thereby achieving the purpose of cooling and dissipating heat of the motor. The motor stator water cooling and heat dissipation method is shown in FIG. 1. Figure 1 In the stator water cooling and heat dissipation method, the heat exchange contact surface is arranged on the outermost side of the motor, and cannot dissipate heat of the rotating motor rotor. Therefore, only the heat on the surface of the motor stator in a stationary state can be taken away. The main heat generating part of a motor with high power density is usually located in the motor rotor, and the heat generated by the motor rotor is more serious, especially under the working condition of high-speed operation of the motor. The heat dissipation method of increasing the cooling water channel on the outside of the motor shell is difficult to take away the heat of the motor rotor, thereby greatly limiting the improvement of the power density of the motor and the working effect of high-speed operation.
