[0042] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0043] The specific implementation methods of the present application are further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. First of all, it should be noted that the directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, etc. mentioned or may be mentioned in the specification of the present invention are defined relative to the structure shown in the corresponding drawings. They are relative concepts, and therefore may change accordingly according to their different locations and different usage states. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.

[0044] The electric pump can be applied to the automobile lubrication system and / or cooling system, and can provide flow circulation power for the working medium in the automobile lubrication system and / or cooling system. The automobile lubrication system and / or cooling system can provide lubricating oil and / or cooling oil for the transmission system.

[0045] Reference Figures 1 to 22As shown, the integrated component 300 of the automobile lubrication system and / or cooling system is provided with a reservoir 200 for storing working medium. Specifically, the reservoir 200 has a liquid storage chamber 201, in which working medium is stored. The inlet channel 1111 of the electric pump 100 is connected to the liquid storage chamber 201, and the electric pump 100 pumps the working medium in the liquid storage chamber 201 to the drive motor and / or gear box to cool the drive motor and / or lubricate the gear box. If the liquid level of the working medium in the reservoir 200 is lower than the oil inlet of the electric pump 100, the electric pump 100 is empty, and the electric pump 100 cannot output enough working medium to lubricate and / or cool the vehicle. Specifically, the electric pump 100 cannot output enough working medium, such as oil, to lubricate the gear box and / or cool the drive motor. The gear box is not sufficiently lubricated, which affects the user experience on the one hand and the life of the gears in the gear box on the other hand. The drive motor is not sufficiently cooled, and the heat generated by the drive motor cannot be dissipated in time, which affects the life of the drive motor. In order to reduce the occurrence of the above situation, a detection unit 152 for detecting the liquid level height of the working medium is usually set in the reservoir. Specifically, the detection unit 152 includes an ultrasonic detection device. Usually, the detection unit 152 is arranged outside the electric pump 100. In this way, the mechanical connection structure between the detection unit and the external system is increased, resulting in a relatively complex system structure. For detecting the temperature sensor input to the working medium inside the electric pump 100, it will also be arranged outside the electric pump. Similarly, the mechanical connection structure between the detection unit and the external system will also be increased, resulting in a relatively complex system structure. Of course, the detection unit 152 includes but is not limited to a liquid level detection unit for detecting whether the electric pump has a vacuum situation and / or a temperature sensor input to the working medium inside the electric pump 100. For example, other operating parameters of the electric pump 100 can also be detected. The following is only an example of the detection unit 152 being used to detect whether the electric pump has a vacuum situation and / or a temperature sensor for detecting the working medium inside the electric pump.

[0046] refer to Figures 2 to 7As shown, the electric pump 100 includes a housing 11, a pump rotor assembly 12, a stator assembly 13, a motor rotor assembly 14, a shaft 16 and a control board assembly 15; the housing 11 is provided with an inner cavity, and the pump rotor assembly 12, the stator assembly 13, the shaft 16 and the motor rotor assembly 14 are placed in the inner cavity. The pump rotor assembly 12 is arranged near one end of the shaft 16, and the motor rotor assembly 14 is arranged near the other end of the shaft 16. The stator assembly 13 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the motor rotor assembly 14. The stator assembly 13 includes a stator core 131, an insulating frame 132 and a winding 133. The insulating frame 132 at least covers at least a part of the surface of the stator core 131, and the winding 133 is wound around the insulating frame 132. The control board assembly 15 includes a substrate 151 and electronic components, and the electronic components are fixedly connected to the substrate 151. The control board assembly 15 is electrically connected to the stator assembly 13. The control board assembly 15 controls the current in the winding 133 of the stator assembly 13 to change according to a predetermined rule, thereby controlling the stator assembly 13 to generate a changing excitation magnetic field. The motor rotor assembly 14 rotates under the action of the excitation magnetic field. The motor rotor assembly 14 can directly or indirectly drive some parts in the pump rotor assembly 12 to rotate. When the pump rotor assembly 12 rotates, the volume of the hydraulic cavity between the pump rotor assemblies 12 changes, so that the working medium is pressed out to the outlet 1112a, thereby generating flow power.

[0047] As a way to implement this, refer to Figures 2 to 3As shown, an electric pump 100 includes a pump rotor assembly 12, a motor rotor assembly 14 and a control board assembly 15. The pump rotor assembly 12 is transmission-connected with the motor rotor assembly 14. The electric pump 100 has a first cavity 17 and a second cavity 18. The pump rotor assembly 12 is located in the first cavity 17, and the control board assembly 15 is located in the second cavity 18. The working medium can enter the second cavity 18. The control board assembly 15 includes a detection unit 152. The detection unit 152 can detect the temperature value and / or pressure value of the working medium located in the second cavity 18. Specifically, the second cavity 18 is directly or indirectly connected to an external liquid storage cavity 201. The working medium in the liquid storage cavity 201 can enter the second cavity 18. The control board assembly 15 includes the detection unit 152. Specifically, the control board assembly 15 includes a substrate 151 and the detection unit 152. The detection unit 152 is fixedly connected to the substrate 151. The detection unit 152 contacts the working medium in the second cavity 18, and the detection unit 152 can detect the pressure of the working medium located in the second cavity 18. In this way, since the second chamber 18 is directly or indirectly connected to the liquid storage chamber 201, according to the principle that the pressure at each point at the same depth from the liquid surface is equal, the detection unit 152 can detect the pressure at each point in the liquid storage chamber 201 at the same depth from the detection unit 152 to the liquid surface, and then the liquid level of the working medium in the liquid storage chamber 201 can be obtained. Since the detection unit 152 is integrated into the electric pump 100, it is helpful to simplify the system structure and make the system structure more compact. It should be explained that here and in the following "the detection unit 152 detects the pressure of the working medium in the second chamber 18" refers to the pressure at the contact position with the detection unit 152. The pressure mentioned here is static pressure, which is called pressure in physics and is usually called pressure in practical engineering applications. If the working medium in the liquid storage chamber, that is, the temperature of the working medium input to the electric pump is detected, the second chamber 18 is directly or indirectly connected to the external liquid storage chamber 201, and the temperature value of the working medium in the liquid storage chamber can be obtained by detecting the temperature in the second chamber.

[0048] Please refer to Figures 2 to 5As shown, the stator assembly 13 includes a stator core 131, an insulating frame 132 and a winding 133, the number of windings 133 is at least three, the insulating frame 132 is coated on at least part of the surface of the stator core 131, and the insulating frame 132 is used to isolate the winding 133 and the stator core 131, so that the winding 133 and the stator core 131 are electrically insulated. The insulating frame 132 and the stator core 131 can be an integrated structural member. Specifically, as an implementation method, the insulating frame 132 is formed by injection molding with the stator core 131 as an insert. Of course, as other implementation methods, the insulating frame 132 and the stator core 131 are separately set, and the "separate setting" here means that the insulating frame 132 and the stator core 131 are respectively processed into two separate parts and then assembled. The connection is limited or fixed by assembly. In this embodiment, the insulating frame 132 is formed by injection molding with the stator core 131 as an insert. It can be understood that the stator core 131 and the insulating frame 132 are an integrated structure. The winding 133 is wound on the insulating frame 132. As a specific embodiment, the winding 133 includes nine windings 133. Of course, as other implementations, the winding 133 can also include other numbers of windings 133, such as three, six, twelve, or other numbers.

[0049] As an implementation, see Figures 2 to 3 , Fig.14 and Fig.15As shown, the control board assembly 15 includes a substrate 151, and the detection unit 152 includes a varistor 1521 and / or a thermistor 1522. The varistor 1521 and / or the thermistor 1522 are welded and fixed to the substrate 151, and at least part of the varistor 1521 is in contact with the working medium in the second cavity 18. Alternatively, at least part of the thermistor 1522 is in contact with the working medium in the second cavity 18; or at least part of the thermistor 1522 and at least part of the varistor 1521 are in contact with the working medium in the second cavity 18. Specifically, the varistor 1521 and / or includes a surface-mount structure and a pin-type structure. In this embodiment, the varistor 1521 and / or the thermistor is a surface-mount structure. In this way, first, while detecting the working medium pressure and / or temperature of the second chamber 18, it is helpful to reduce the space occupied by the varistor 1521 and / or thermistor 1522 in the electric pump 100; second, the surface-mounted varistor 1521 and / or thermistor 1522 is helpful to improve the stability of the varistor 1521 and / or thermistor 1522 after welding with the substrate 151. It should be noted that in this embodiment, only the varistor position setting of the detection unit 152 that can detect the working medium pressure value in the second chamber 18 or the thermistor setting of the working medium temperature value in the second chamber 18 is shown, and the above figure does not show the situation where the varistor position of the detection unit 152 that can detect the working medium pressure value in the second chamber 18 and the thermistor position of the working medium temperature value in the second chamber 18 are set at the same time.

[0050] As a specific implementation method, please refer to Figures 2 to 3 As shown, the stator assembly 13, the motor rotor assembly 14 and the control board assembly 15 are located in the second cavity 18, and the stator assembly 13 and the control board assembly 15 are limitedly arranged. Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, the electric pump 100 includes a limiting portion 21 and a matching portion 22, one of which is located on the insulating frame 132 of the stator assembly 13, and the other of which is located on the base plate 151 of the control board assembly 15. The limiting portion 21 and the matching portion 22 are limited and matched. In order to strengthen the connection strength between the control board assembly 15 and the stator assembly 13, the limiting portion 21 and the matching portion 22 are fixedly connected after being limited and matched. The fixed connection method includes but is not limited to welding fixation.

In this way, the working medium can directly enter the second cavity, and the detection unit is set corresponding to the outlet of the first channel. The detection unit can contact the working medium flowing out of the outlet of the first channel at the first time, reducing the influence of heat generated by other components, such as the stator assembly and / or the control board assembly, on the detection unit, thereby helping to improve the detection accuracy of the detection unit. It should be noted that the "corresponding setting" in the corresponding setting of the detection unit 152 and the outlet 1611 of the first channel 161 here refers to the corresponding setting method in which the working medium flowing out of the outlet 1611 of the first channel 161 can contact the detection unit at the first time. For details, please refer to Figures 1 to 22 As shown, the control board assembly 15 includes a substrate 151, and the detection unit 152 is welded and fixed to the substrate 151. When the electric pump is working, at least part of the detection unit 152 is located on the trajectory of the working medium flowing out of the outlet 1611 of the first channel 161. More specifically, along the axial direction of the shaft 16, the first channel 161 runs through the shaft 16, the outlet 1611 of the first channel 161 is located at the end 163 of the shaft 16, and at least part of the detection unit 152 is located between the end 163 and the substrate 151; or, the shaft 16 also has a lateral channel 162, one end of the lateral channel 162 is connected to the second cavity 18, and the other end of the lateral channel 162 is connected to the first channel 161, and the outlet 1611 of the first channel 161 is located at the outer side 164 of the shaft 16.

The varistor 1521 and / or the thermistor are welded and fixed to the substrate 151, and at least part of the varistor 1521 is in contact with the working medium in the second cavity 18. Alternatively, at least part of the thermistor 1522 is in contact with the working medium in the second cavity 18; or at least part of the thermistor 1522 and at least part of the varistor 1521 are in contact with the working medium in the second cavity 18.

[0052] As an implementation, see Figures 1 to 15 As shown, the control board assembly 15 includes a substrate 151, and the detection unit 152 is welded and fixed to the substrate 151. At least a part of the detection unit 152 is located on the outflow trajectory of the working medium from the outlet 1611 of the first channel 161. In this way, the detection unit 152 can be in contact with the working medium flowing out of the outlet 1611 of the first channel 161 for the first time. First, it is helpful to reduce the influence of heat generated by other components, such as the stator assembly and / or the control board assembly, on the detection unit, thereby helping to improve the detection accuracy of the detection unit. Second, it is helpful to increase the adaptability of the electric pump. For example, a magnet can be set at the end position of the shaft, and a Hall sensor can be set on the control board assembly. Figures 1 to 15 In this way, the temperature and / or pressure of the working medium in the electric pump can be detected while detecting the phase angle of the electric pump.

[0053] For further information, please refer to Figures 1 to 15 The substrate 151 includes a front side 1511 and a back side 1512. Along the axial direction of the electric pump 100, the front side 1511 is closer to the motor rotor assembly 14 than the back side 1512. The detection unit 152 can be arranged on the front side 1511 of the substrate or on the back side 1512 of the substrate 151. As an implementation method, please refer to Figures 1 to 15 As shown, along the axial direction of the shaft 16, the first channel 161 penetrates the shaft 16. For details, please refer to Fig.13 As shown, the substrate 151 includes a front side 1511 and a back side 1512.

Figure 3 In the figure, the magnet and the Hall sensor corresponding to the magnet are not shown. In this way, the influence of the heat generated by the stator assembly 13 and / or the control board assembly 15 on the detection unit 152 during the operation of the electric pump 100 is reduced, which is conducive to improving the detection accuracy of the detection unit 152, and further conducive to detecting the accurate value of the liquid level of the working medium in the liquid storage chamber 201 and / or the temperature of the working medium in the liquid storage chamber 201. It should be noted that the axial direction of the electric pump is the direction in which the axial centerline of the electric pump extends.

[0054] Please refer to Figure 3 and Fig.13 As shown, as an implementation method, along the axial direction of the shaft 16', the first channel 161' does not penetrate the shaft 16', and the shaft 16' has a lateral channel 162', one end of the lateral channel 162' is connected to the second chamber 18, and the other end of the lateral channel 162' is connected to the first channel 161'. In this way, a magnet for detecting the phase of the electric pump 100 can be set at the end 163 that does not penetrate the shaft 16'. Figure 3 as well as Fig.14 Not shown in the figure, it is helpful to simplify the structure of the magnet installation position and lay a certain foundation for simplifying the structure of the electric pump. Fig.13 The relationship between the trajectory L3 of the working medium flowing out of the lateral channel 162 ′ and the detection unit 152 is exemplarily given in FIG.

[0055] Further, as an implementation method, please refer to Figures 3 to 15 , Fig.21 As shown, the substrate 151 includes a front side 1511 and a back side 1512.

Along the axial direction of the electric pump 100, the outlet 1611 of the first channel 16 is closer to the front side 1511 than the back side 1512. Along the direction from the center line X1 of the shaft 18 to the center line X2 of the lateral channel 162', the angle Y between the center line X1 of the shaft 16 and the center line X2 of the lateral channel 162' is an acute angle or a right angle. Fig.13 The first channel 161 does not penetrate the shaft 16, and the angle Y between the center line X1 of the shaft 16 and the center line X2 of the lateral channel 162' is a right angle. Figure 3 In the figure, the first channel 161 passes through the shaft 16, and the angle Y between the center line X1 of the shaft 16 and the center line X2 of the lateral channel 162' is a right angle. Fig.21, the first channel 161 penetrates the shaft 16; the angle Y between the center line X1 of the shaft 16 and the center line X2 of the lateral channel 162' is an acute angle. Other situations are not shown, for example, the first channel 161 does not penetrate the shaft 16, and the angle Y between the center line X1 of the shaft 16 and the center line X2 of the lateral channel 162' is an acute angle.
