Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention belongs to the technical field of underwater structure experimental models, and particularly relates to an electric motor compartment of an underwater structure experimental model. Background Technology

[0002] Underwater structural experimental models can move underwater and play an important role in today's increasingly important marine development. Existing underwater structural experimental models are generally powered by motors, which enable them to move freely underwater. The motor housing, as the installation location of the motor, is of paramount importance in terms of its protection.

[0003] However, the current design of motor housings in widely used underwater structural experimental models focuses primarily on sealing and structural strength to ensure stable motor operation in complex marine environments. The motors are rigidly connected within the housing, meaning their vibrations act directly on the housing, causing vibrations throughout the entire underwater structural experimental model. This compromises the watertightness of the connections, affecting the model's safety. Furthermore, the vibrations generate excessive noise, compromising the model's concealment and hindering underwater operations. The enclosed nature of the motor housing also leads to poor heat dissipation, causing internal temperatures to rise and impacting motor performance. Additionally, the existing one-piece motor housings are inconvenient for inspection and maintenance, increasing upkeep costs.

[0004] Therefore, this application designs an underwater structure experimental model of an electric motor compartment to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this invention proposes an underwater structural experimental model of an electric motor compartment.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides a motor compartment for an underwater structure experimental model, comprising a motor compartment, wherein a mounting base for mounting a drive motor is provided inside the motor compartment, and a heat dissipation component for increasing heat dissipation efficiency is provided on the motor compartment;

[0007] The heat dissipation assembly includes a plurality of heat dissipation channels formed on the side wall of the motor compartment. The plurality of heat dissipation channels are equally spaced on the motor compartment, and water flows through the heat dissipation channels to accelerate the heat dissipation efficiency. A heat-conducting module is contacted and disposed inside the heat dissipation channel. The heat-conducting module extends into the inner cavity of the motor compartment to accelerate the transfer of heat between the inner cavity of the motor compartment and the heat dissipation channel.

[0008] The mounting base includes a vibration damping base for mounting the motor, and a base is provided on the vibration damping base, on which the drive motor is mounted.

[0009] Preferably, the heat-conducting module includes a plurality of first heat-conducting bodies, which are equally spaced at the bottom of the heat dissipation channel. One end of each first heat-conducting body extends into the bottom of the heat dissipation channel and is flush with the bottom end of the heat dissipation channel. The other end of each first heat-conducting body extends into the inner cavity of the motor compartment and is flush with the inner cavity of the motor compartment.

[0010] Preferably, the heat-conducting module includes a plurality of second heat conductors, which are symmetrically arranged at equal intervals on both sides of the heat dissipation channel; the ends of the second heat conductors extend into the motor compartment and are flush with the inner cavity of the motor compartment; the sidewall of the second heat conductor is provided with a heat dissipation notch corresponding to the sidewall of the heat dissipation channel; the second heat conductor is attached to the sidewall of the heat dissipation channel through the heat dissipation notch.

[0011] Preferably, the first heat conductor and the second heat conductor are arranged alternately.

[0012] Preferably, the vibration damping seat is used to provide vibration damping pads between the inner walls of the motor compartment.

[0013] Preferably, the vibration damping base includes a fixed foot disposed on the inner wall of the motor compartment, and a lifting seat is movably connected to the top of the fixed foot. The base is detachably connected to the lifting seat, which is suitable for different models of the drive motor.

[0014] Preferably, the top of the fixed foot is provided with a lifting groove, and a lifting rod slides up and down in the lifting groove. The lifting rod extends out of the lifting groove and is fixedly connected to the bottom end of the lifting seat. A lifting spring is provided between the lifting seat and the fixed foot, and the lifting spring is sleeved on the lifting rod.

[0016] Preferably, the motor compartment includes two detachably arranged half-shells, which are detachably connected by a locking assembly; each half-shell has a connecting plate at both ends for connecting other components.

[0017] Preferably, the locking assembly includes a locking groove formed on the half-shell, and the locking grooves on the two half-shells are correspondingly arranged; a locking bolt is provided between the two locking grooves.

[0018] Compared with existing technologies, this invention has the following advantages and technical effects: This invention discloses a motor compartment for an underwater structural experimental model. By setting a mounting base inside the motor compartment, the vibration generated by the operation of the drive motor is absorbed, reducing the amount of vibration transmitted to the motor compartment, thereby reducing the vibration of the entire underwater structural experimental model, reducing the loosening of equipment caused by vibration, reducing the probability of underwater leakage, and improving the safety of the water tank vehicle.

[0029] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0030] To make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more apparent and understandable, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0031] Reference Figures 1-7 As shown, this embodiment provides a motor compartment for an underwater structure experimental model, including a motor compartment 1, a mounting base 2 for mounting a drive motor 13 is provided inside the motor compartment 1, and a heat dissipation component 3 for increasing heat dissipation efficiency is provided on the motor compartment 1.

[0032] The heat dissipation component 3 includes several heat dissipation channels 4 opened on the side wall of the motor chamber 1. The several heat dissipation channels 4 are equally spaced on the motor chamber 1. Water flows through the heat dissipation channels 4 to accelerate the heat dissipation efficiency. A heat conduction module is contacted inside the heat dissipation channel 4. The heat conduction module extends into the inner cavity of the motor chamber 1 to accelerate the transfer of heat between the inner cavity of the motor chamber 1 and the heat dissipation channel 4.

[0033] Mounting base 2 includes a vibration damping base 5 for mounting the motor, and a base 6 is provided on the vibration damping base 5. The drive motor 13 is mounted on the base 6.

[0034] This invention discloses a motor compartment for an underwater structural experimental model. A mounting base 2 is installed inside the motor compartment 1 to absorb vibrations generated by the drive motor 13, reducing the amount of vibration transmitted to the motor compartment 1, thereby reducing the overall vibration of the underwater structural experimental model. This reduces the likelihood of equipment loosening due to vibration, lowers the probability of underwater leakage, and improves the safety of the water tank vehicle. The reduced vibration also lowers underwater noise, improving stealth and facilitating underwater operations. The heat dissipation component 3 improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the motor compartment 1, preventing overheating and potential malfunctions of the drive motor 13, thus enhancing safety and reducing the probability of detecting high-temperature anomalies. A heat dissipation channel 4 is provided on the motor compartment 1, with a heat dissipation module positioned between the channel and the inner cavity of the motor compartment 1, accelerating heat transfer. When heat is transferred to the channel 4, the rapid flow of water further accelerates heat dissipation. Additionally, several three-dimensional heat dissipation channels 4 are arranged on the outer wall of the motor compartment 1, improving the strength and stability of the equipment, and enhancing the operational stability of the underwater structural experimental model. The present invention has a simple structure and is easy to use. It greatly reduces the impact of the vibration of the drive motor 13 on the motor compartment 1, improves the safety and concealment of the equipment, and at the same time accelerates the heat dissipation efficiency of the motor compartment 1, reduces the probability of overheating in the motor compartment 1, and extends the service life of the equipment.

[0035] Further optimizing the design, the heat-conducting module includes several first heat conductors 7, which are equally spaced at the bottom of the heat dissipation channel 4. One end of each first heat conductor 7 extends into the bottom of the heat dissipation channel 4 and is flush with the bottom end of the channel 4. The other end of each first heat conductor 7 extends into the inner cavity of the motor housing 1 and is flush with the inner cavity of the motor housing 1. The heat-conducting module also includes several second heat conductors 8, which are equally spaced and symmetrically arranged on both sides of the heat dissipation channel 4. The end of each second heat conductor 8 extends into the motor housing 1 and is flush with the inner cavity of the motor housing 1. The sidewall of each second heat conductor 8 has a heat dissipation notch 9 corresponding to the sidewall of the heat dissipation channel 4. The second heat conductor 8 is attached to the sidewall of the heat dissipation channel 4 through the heat dissipation notch 9. The first heat conductors 7 and the second heat conductors 8 are arranged alternately. The first heat conductor 7 and the second heat conductor 8 are both sealed and embedded in the motor housing 1, with one end extending into the inner cavity of the motor housing 1 and flush with the inner cavity wall, ensuring heat dissipation efficiency without affecting the installation of internal equipment; the first heat conductor 7 is flush with the bottom wall of the inner cavity of the heat dissipation channel 4, while the second heat conductor 8 surrounds the outside of the heat dissipation channel 4 through a heat conduction notch, increasing the contact area with the water in the heat dissipation channel 4 and increasing heat dissipation efficiency; at the same time, the staggered arrangement of the first heat conductor 7 and the second heat conductor 8 avoids interference between the first heat conductor 7 and the second heat conductor 8.

[0036] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the first heat conductor 7 and the second heat conductor 8 are made of high thermal conductivity materials, such as aluminum alloy, which can be selected according to requirements.

[0037] Furthermore, in order to reduce the resistance of the heat dissipation channel 4 to water, the inner wall of the heat dissipation channel 4 is made smooth.

[0038] Further optimization of the design involves placing a vibration damping pad 10 between the vibration damping seat 5 and the inner wall of the motor compartment 1. The vibration damping pad 10 between the vibration damping seat 5 and the motor compartment 1 serves two purposes: firstly, it avoids rigid contact between the vibration damping seat 5 and the motor compartment 1, reducing damage to the paint surface of the inner wall of the motor compartment 1; secondly, it reduces the vibration transmitted from the vibration damping seat 5 to the motor compartment 1, preventing unstable connection of the equipment caused by vibration.

[0039] Furthermore, the vibration damping pad 10 in this embodiment is made of flexible and oil-resistant rubber or silicone.

[0040] Further optimizing the design, the vibration damping base 5 includes fixed feet 11 mounted on the inner wall of the motor housing 1. A lifting base 12 is movably connected to the top of the fixed feet 11, and a base 6 is detachably connected to the lifting base 12, suitable for different models of drive motors 13. The fixed feet 11 are fixed to the motor housing wall by several bolts, while the lifting base 12 is elastically connected to the fixed feet 11. When the drive motor 13 is running, vibration is transmitted to the fixed feet 11, which in turn drives the elastic lifting of the lifting base 12, thereby reducing the energy transmitted to the motor housing 1 by vibration. The detachable connection of the base 6 to the lifting base 12 allows for adjustment and assembly according to the model and counterweight of the drive motor 13.

[0041] In a further optimized design, a lifting groove 14 is provided at the top of the fixed foot 11. A lifting rod 15 slides and rises within the lifting groove 14, extending out of the lifting groove 14 and fixedly connected to the bottom of the lifting seat 12. A lifting spring 16 is provided between the lifting seat 12 and the fixed foot 11, and the lifting spring 16 is sleeved on the lifting rod 15. The lifting rod 15 and the lifting groove 14 guide the lifting seat 12, while the lifting spring 16 pushes the lifting seat 12 to automatically reset, so that the drive motor 13 is in a level state. A damping module is provided at the bottom of the lifting groove 14, and the damping module is in contact with the lifting rod 15 to absorb vibration.

[0042] Furthermore, the damping module in this embodiment is a conventional device, which is combined with the lifting spring 16 to form a structure similar to a spring damper, which will not be described in detail here.

[0043] To further optimize the design, several guide rods 17 are evenly spaced at the bottom of the lifting base 12, and the guide rods 17 surround the lifting rod 15. A guide groove 18 is provided at the top of the fixed foot 11, and the guide rods 17 extend into the guide groove 18 and slide in connection with it. The guide rods 17 and guide grooves 18 are designed to improve the stability of the lifting block, assisting the movement of the lifting rod 15 and the lifting groove 14. They do not have an automatic reset function; they are merely passive guides and stabilizers.

[0044] Further optimizing the design, the motor compartment 1 includes two detachable half-shells 19, which are detachably connected by a locking assembly. Each half-shell 19 has a connecting plate 20 at both ends for connecting other components. The motor compartment 1 is configured with two symmetrical, detachable half-shells 19 for easy assembly and equipment assembly. The design of the half-shells 19 with only connecting plates 20 at both ends facilitates module assembly and production by connecting them to other parts of the underwater structure experimental model.

[0045] The locking assembly is further optimized by including a locking groove 21 on each half-shell 19, with corresponding locking grooves 21 on both half-shells 19. A locking bolt 22 is provided between the two locking grooves 21. Connecting blocks 27 and connecting grooves 28 are respectively provided on both sides of the half-shell 19. In use, the connecting blocks 27 are inserted into the connecting grooves 28 of the other half-shell 19, pressing against the first sealing gasket 25 in the connecting groove 28 to improve the sealing performance. A second sealing gasket 26 is provided between the two half-shells 19 to further enhance the sealing performance between them. The locking grooves 21 on each half-shell 19 are correspondingly provided and connected through bolt grooves 29. They are then locked together by locking bolts 22 to fix the two half-shells 19 together as a whole, facilitating subsequent connection and maintenance.

[0046] Furthermore, a support block 23 is provided inside the locking groove 21, and a sealing cover 24 covers the locking groove 21 and the bolt groove 29, and is locked together by a sealing bolt 30. The outer wall of the sealing cover 24 is flush with the arc surface of the outer wall of the half shell 19, thus avoiding water resistance.

[0047] Furthermore, the inner wall of the half-shell 19 in this embodiment is provided with reinforcing ribs, the arrangement of which can be reasonably arranged according to the size of the half-shell 19.

[0048] Furthermore, the inner wall of the half-shell 19 is fitted with a heat insulation layer, through which the first heat conductor 7 and the second heat conductor 8 pass.

[0050] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.
