Description

[0002] A brushed DC motor is a DC motor. The stator of the brushed motor is equipped with fixed main magnetic poles and brushes, and the rotor is equipped with armature windings and commutators. The stator generates a static magnetic field, which surrounds the rotor. The output shaft of the brushed DC motor has two arc-shaped copper sheets called commutator segments. When the motor rotates, the carbon brushes slide on the commutator, and the electric energy of the DC power supply enters the armature winding through the brushes and commutator to generate armature current. The magnetic field generated by the armature current interacts with the main magnetic field to generate electromagnetic torque, causing the motor to rotate and drive the load. In the previous development process of brushed DC motors, the motor temperature rise is generally around 110K, which is close to the required 115K or less.

The water inlet 14 of the motor body 11 is connected to the liquid outlet of the condensate supply device, the water outlet 15 of the motor body 11 is connected to the liquid inlet of the hydraulic motor 21, and the liquid outlet of the hydraulic motor 21 is connected to the liquid inlet of the condensate supply device.

[0035] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inner bottom surface of the hollow box 16 is rotatably mounted with a bevel gear 1 22, and the rotation axis of the bevel gear 1 22 is vertically arranged. A spiral straight rod 23 is horizontally arranged inside the hollow box 16, and four spiral straight rods 23 are arranged with the axis of the bevel gear 1 22 as the axial direction. The four spiral straight rods 23 correspond to the four inner side walls of the hollow box 16 one by one and are perpendicular to each other. The spiral straight rods 23 are rotatably mounted on the corresponding inner side walls of the hollow box 16. The ends of the four spiral straight rods 23 close to the bevel gear 1 22 are coaxially fixed with a bevel gear 24. The four bevel gears 24 are all meshed with the bevel gear 1 22, so as to achieve the effect of synchronous rotation of the four spiral straight rods 23. Four spiral through grooves 25 that penetrate the circumference of the spiral straight rod 23 are opened around the axis of the spiral straight rod 23 at both ends.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 , a slider 26 is installed on the circumference of each spiral rod 23, and a spiral through hole 27 is fixedly installed on the slider 26 along the length direction of the spiral rod 23. Four spiral strips 28 are arranged on the inner circumference of the spiral through hole 27 with the axis of the spiral rod 23 as the circumference.

[0037] The implementation principle of a water-cooled motor disclosed in the embodiment of the present application is as follows: the existing condensate supply device injects condensate through the water inlet 14 of the motor body 11, and the condensate flows into the annular cavity 13 and then flows into the hollow cavity 12 until it is full, thereby achieving the effect of cooling the motor body 11. During the long-term use of the motor body 11, the temperature rise inside the motor body 11 is relatively high. Providing condensate through the condensate supply device can well control the temperature rise. The water outlet 15 of the motor body 11 guides the condensate to the hydraulic motor 21 through the liquid inlet end of the hydraulic motor 21, and the hydraulic motor 21 drives the cooling fan 20 to rotate through its own rotating shaft, thereby achieving the effect of the cooling fan 20 further cooling the motor body 11.

[0038] The motor body 28 is vibrated, and the motor body 28 drives the hollow disc 18 to vibrate, and the hollow disc 18 drives the anti-vibration straight rod 25 to vibrate, and the anti-vibration straight rod 25 drives the slider 26 to slide along the length direction of the spiral straight rod 23. Since the four bevel gears 24 are all meshed with the bevel gear 1 22, the four spiral straight rods 23 rotate synchronously, so that the hollow disc 18 offsets the vibration of the motor body 11 by vertical sliding. The slider 26 squeezes the compression spring 22, and the compression spring 22 is deformed, thereby converting the vibration of the motor body 28 into the deformation of the compression spring 22, reducing the noise generated by the vibration of the motor body 28. After the motor body 28 stops vibrating, the compression spring 22 drives the slider 26 to return to its original position through its own deformation force.

[0039] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
