Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of oil-blocking technology, specifically relating to an oil-blocking structure, a rotor assembly, a motor, and a compressor. Background Technology
[0002] The compressor has a rotor assembly, and the rotor core of the rotor assembly is designed with multiple flow holes penetrating both ends of the axial direction. These flow holes are used for the flow of refrigerant gas and cooling oil liquid. The flow state of the oil and gas within the flow holes varies depending on the compressor's operating frequency. When the compressor operates at a high frequency, the rotor speed is high. At this time, some of the oil and gas in the flow holes flows towards the compressor's discharge port, while some flows back towards the pump body. This backflow increases the flow rate and velocity in the other channels of the motor, resulting in poorer oil-gas separation and a high oil discharge rate from the compressor. Summary of the Invention
[0003] Therefore, the present invention provides an oil baffle structure, a rotor assembly, a motor, and a compressor, which can solve the technical problem in the prior art where backflow occurs in some flow holes when the compressor operates at high frequency, resulting in a high oil discharge rate of the compressor.

[0012] In some embodiments, the fixing member has an end cap located on the second side of the movable stop to stop and limit the second side of the movable stop.
[0013] In some embodiments, the movable stop is further configured to be in a second position when the rotor core is operating at a second rotational speed; wherein the second rotational speed is less than the first rotational speed; and in the second position, the movable stop clears the flow hole.
[0014] In some embodiments, the movable stop is provided with a first positioning part, and the rotor core is provided with a second positioning part. One of the first positioning part and the second positioning part is a positioning protrusion, and the other is a positioning groove. When the movable stop is in the second position, the positioning protrusion is inserted into the positioning groove. The movable stop is used to drive the first positioning part to disengage from the second positioning part when the rotor core is rotating at a first speed.
[0015] In some embodiments, when the rotor core is provided with a blocking structure, and the blocking structure includes an elastic element, and the elastic element is disposed between the movable stop and the rotor core so that the movable stop is connected to the rotor core through the elastic element, the elastic element is used to gradually recover deformation from the compressed state and push the movable stop to the second position when the speed of the rotor core gradually decreases from the first rotational speed to the second rotational speed, and pushes the movable stop to the second position when the speed of the rotor core decreases to the second rotational speed.
[0016] In some embodiments, when the oil baffle structure further includes an oil baffle cap, and the oil baffle cap is used to fix the rotor core, the second positioning part is disposed on the oil baffle cap to connect with the rotor core through the oil baffle cap.

[0042] 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. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is merely illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present invention or its application or use. 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.
[0043] In the description of this invention, it should be understood that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by directional terms such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" is generally based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and is only for the convenience of describing this invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise stated, these directional terms do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the scope of protection of this invention; the directional terms "inner" and "outer" refer to the inner and outer contours relative to the outline of each component itself.
[0044] For ease of description, spatial relative terms such as "above," "on top of," "on the upper surface of," "above," etc., are used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature as shown in the figures to other devices or features. It should be understood that spatial relative terms are intended to encompass different orientations in use or operation beyond the orientation of the device as described in the figures. For example, if the device in the figures were inverted, a device described as "above" or "on top of" other devices or structures would subsequently be positioned as "below" or "under" other devices or structures. Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below." The device may also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatial relative descriptions used herein will be interpreted accordingly.
[0045] Furthermore, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to define components is merely for the purpose of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this invention.
[0046] See also Figure 1-12 As shown, according to an embodiment of the present invention, an oil-blocking structure is provided for use in conjunction with a rotor core 6. The rotor core 6 has a flow hole 61 for partial backflow when operating at a first speed w1. The first speed w1 is a high speed.
[0047] like Figure 2 As shown, the aforementioned oil-blocking structure includes a movable baffle 1. The movable baffle 1 can be plate-shaped, acting as a movable baffle. The movable baffle 1 is connected to the rotor core 6 so that it rotates together with the rotor core 6. When the rotor core 6 operates at a first speed w1, the movable baffle 1 moves relative to the rotor core 6 to a first position. In the first position, the movable baffle 1 blocks at least part of the flow hole 61 where backflow occurs. Preferably, in the first position, the movable baffle 1 blocks all of the flow hole 61 where backflow occurs.
[0048] In the example above, since the movable stop 1 can block the backflow of the flow hole 61 when the rotor core 6 is running at the first speed w1, such as high speed, the flow area of the backflow flow hole 61 can be reduced, thereby reducing backflow and lowering the oil discharge rate of the compressor.
[0049] To enable the aforementioned movable stop 1 to move to a first position relative to the rotor core 6 when the rotor core 6 is running at a first speed w1, in some embodiments, a blocking structure is provided on the aforementioned rotor core 6. When the rotor core 6 is running at the first speed w1, the movable stop 1 is pushed by its own wind resistance and, in conjunction with the blocking structure, moves relative to the rotor core 6 to the aforementioned first position.
[0050] In this invention, wind resistance is directly proportional to speed. When the rotor core 6 drives the movable stop 1 to rotate at high speed, the wind resistance experienced by the movable stop 1 increases. When the rotor core 6 drives the movable stop 1 at the first rotational speed w1, the movable stop 1 is propelled relative to the rotor core 6 by its own wind resistance. Without the obstruction of the blocking structure, the movable stop 1 would rotate. This invention, by setting a blocking structure to obstruct the movable stop 1, combined with the wind resistance of the movable stop 1, enables the movable stop 1 to move to the aforementioned first position.
[0051] In some implementations, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the aforementioned blocking structure may include an elastic element 4, which may be a spring or flexible plastic, etc. The elastic element 4 is used to be disposed between the movable stop 1 and the rotor core 6, so that the movable stop 1 is connected to the rotor core 6 through the elastic element 4, thereby allowing the rotor core 6 to drive the movable stop 1 to move through the elastic element 4.
[0052] In the above example, when the rotor core 6 operates at the first speed w1, the blocking structure can block the movable stop 1 through the elastic element 4, so that the elastic element 4 can cooperate with the wind resistance of the movable stop 1, and the movable stop 1 can move to the aforementioned first position.
[0053] It should be noted that when the rotor core 6 operates at the first speed w1, the movable stop 1 is subjected to the thrust of wind resistance in the first direction, and the movable stop 1 is also subjected to the resistance of the blocking structure in the second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are opposite.
[0054] In a specific application example, the elastic element 4 is used to undergo compression deformation under the push of the movable stop 1 when the rotor core 6 is running at a first speed w1, so as to provide elastic force to the movable stop 1 and block it. The greater the wind resistance experienced by the movable stop 1, the greater the compression deformation of the elastic element 4 caused by the movable stop 1, and the greater the elastic force of the elastic element 4 in blocking the movable stop 1. When the forces on the movable stop 1 reach equilibrium, the movable stop 1 can be kept in the aforementioned first position.
[0055] In order to install the aforementioned elastic element 4, in some embodiments, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the aforementioned oil-blocking structure also includes an oil-blocking cap 2. The oil-blocking cap 2 is used to fix itself to the rotor core 6, for example, by using fasteners such as rivets. The aforementioned elastic member 4 is connected to the oil-blocking cap 2, so that the elastic member 4 is connected to the rotor core 6 through the oil-blocking cap 2. It should be noted that the connection between the elastic member 4 and the oil-blocking cap 2 includes both a non-separable connection and a separable abutment.
[0056] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 , Figure 7-10As shown, the aforementioned oil baffle cap 2 has a base plate 21, and the oil baffle cap 2 is fixedly connected to the rotor core 6 through the base plate 21. The movable stop 1 has a first surface 1a and a second surface 1b facing away from each other, with the first surface 1a opposite to the base plate 21. The movable stop 1 has an elastic element receiving groove 101 that penetrates through the first surface 1a and the second surface 1b. A fixing member 3 is provided on the base plate 21, and the fixing member 3 has a fixing part 34 located within the elastic element receiving groove 101. The fixing part 34 can be integrally formed on the fixing member 3. The movable stop 1 is connected to one end 41 of the elastic element through the groove wall of the elastic element receiving groove 101, and the oil baffle cap 2 is connected to the other end 42 of the elastic element through the fixing part 34. It should be noted that the connection between one end 41 of the elastic element and the groove wall of the elastic element receiving groove 101 includes both an inseparable connection and a separable abutment. The connection between the other end 42 of the elastic element and the fixing part 34 also includes both an inseparable connection and a separable abutment.
[0057] In the above example, the fixing part 34 of the fastener cooperates with the groove wall of the elastic member receiving groove 101 to realize the installation of the elastic member 4.
[0058] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the aforementioned elastic element receiving groove 101 has a first end opposite to the fixing part 34, and the elastic element receiving groove 101 is connected to one end 41 of the elastic element through the groove wall of the first end. The movable stop 1 has a limiting cap 12 at the first end of the elastic element receiving groove 101, which limits one end 41 of the elastic element to prevent it from dislodging from the first end of the elastic element receiving groove 101.
[0059] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the aforementioned fixing member 3 has an end cap 31, which can be integrally formed on the fixing member 3. The end cap 31 is located on the second surface 1b side of the movable stop member 1 to stop and limit the second surface 1b of the movable stop member 1.
[0060] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the aforementioned fastener 3 can be a first rivet, which can be installed by hammering. Specifically, the first rivet initially has the same outer diameter top and bottom. When installing the first rivet, one end of the first rivet is passed through the elastic member receiving groove 101 and aligned with the first riveting hole 301 on the base plate 21. Then, the other end of the first rivet is hammered, causing one end of the first rivet to insert into the first riveting hole 301. The hammering deforms the other end of the first rivet, increasing its outer diameter and forming the aforementioned end cap 31. The end cap 31 can stop and limit the second surface 1b of the movable stop 1, preventing the movable stop 1 from detaching from the fastener 3. The distance between the end cap 31 and the second surface 1b of the movable stop 1 is h1.
[0061] In some implementations, such as Figure 9 As shown, the width of the aforementioned elastic element receiving groove 101 is d3, as... Figure 12 As shown, the outer diameter of the aforementioned fixing part 34 is d1, and the outer diameter of the end cap 31 is d2, where d1 is less than d3 and less than d2. Because d1 is less than d3, the fixing part 34 will not contact the sidewall in the width direction of the elastic element receiving groove 101, thus preventing obstruction of the movement of the movable stop 1. Simultaneously, because d3 is less than d2, the end cap 31 can stop and limit the second surface 1b of the movable stop 1, preventing the movable stop 1 from detaching from the fixing part 3. In some embodiments, the fitting clearance (i.e., d3-d1) between the aforementioned fixing part 34 and the sidewall of the elastic element receiving groove 101 is within a range of 5mm to prevent displacement in the direction of the rotor core 6 axis, thus avoiding additional noise problems.
[0062] In some implementations, such as Figure 5 As shown, the distance between the aforementioned end cap 31 and the base plate 21 is h1, and the thickness of the movable stop 1 is h2, where h1 is greater than h2.
[0063] In some implementations, such as Figure 1-2 As shown, the elastic element receiving groove 101 described above can be an arc-shaped groove. For example... Figure 6 and Figure 11 As shown, the aforementioned fixing part 34 has a limiting post 32 on its side. The other end 42 of the aforementioned elastic member can be sleeved on the limiting post 32, so that the limiting post 32 can limit the other end 42 of the elastic member. The limiting post 32 has protrusions 33 on its opposite side walls. When the elastic member 4 is a spring, the protrusions 33 can be inserted into the gap between two adjacent turns of the other end of the spring to fix the other end of the spring and prevent the spring from loosening.
[0064] In some implementations, such as Figure 1 As shown, the aforementioned movable stop 1 is also used to be in a second position when the rotor core 6 is running at a second speed w2. The second speed w2 is less than the first speed w1; and in the second position, the movable stop 1 clears the flow hole 61.
[0065] In this invention, the second rotational speed w2 can be low. When the rotor core 6 is rotating at low speed, if the movable stop 1 still partially blocks the flow hole 61, the flow area will decrease, which will increase the flow velocity in the flow hole 61, increase flow friction loss, and increase power consumption. In the example above, the present invention ensures that the flow hole 61 is not blocked by the movable stop 1 when the rotor core 6 is rotating at low speed, thus increasing the flow area and reducing flow friction loss and power consumption.
[0066] In some implementations, such as Figure 1-2As shown, the aforementioned movable stop 1 may have a blocking portion 11. When the movable stop 1 is in the first position, the movable stop 1 blocks the flow hole 61 from flowing back through the blocking portion 11. When the movable stop 1 is in the second position, the blocking portion 11 is located between two adjacent flow holes 61, so that the movable stop 1 can clear the flow hole 61.
[0067] To achieve the purpose of the aforementioned movable stop 1 being in the second position when the rotor core 6 is operating at the second speed w2, in some embodiments, such as Figure 3-4 As shown, the aforementioned movable stop 1 may be provided with a first positioning part 13, which may be integrally formed on the movable stop 1. The aforementioned rotor core 6 is provided with a second positioning part 201. One of the first positioning part 13 and the second positioning part 201 is a positioning protrusion, and the other is a positioning groove. When the movable stop 1 is in the second position, the positioning protrusion is inserted into the positioning groove, and the frictional resistance between the positioning protrusion and the positioning groove can offset the wind resistance of the movable stop 1, which is beneficial to keeping the movable stop 1 in the aforementioned second position. The movable stop 1 is used to drive the first positioning part 13 to rotate together. And when the rotor core 6 is running at a first speed w1, the movable stop 1 is used to drive the first positioning part 13 to disengage from the second positioning part 201, so as to release the locking state of the movable stop 1 by the concave and convex cooperation of the first positioning part 13 and the second positioning part 201, so that the movable stop 1 can move to the aforementioned first position.
[0068] In some embodiments, both the positioning convex bulge and the positioning groove described above can be hemispherical.
[0069] In some embodiments, when the rotor core 6 is provided with a blocking structure, and the blocking structure includes an elastic element 4, and the elastic element 4 is used to be disposed between the movable stop 1 and the rotor core 6 so that the movable stop 1 is connected to the rotor core 6 through the elastic element 4, the elastic element 4 is used to gradually recover deformation from the compressed state and push the movable stop 1 to the aforementioned second position when the speed of the rotor core 6 gradually decreases from the first rotational speed w1 to the second rotational speed w2, and push the movable stop 1 to the aforementioned second position when the speed of the rotor core 6 drops to the second rotational speed w2.
[0070] In the above example, when the rotor core 6 drives the movable stop 1 at a relatively high first rotational speed w1, the movable stop 1 experiences greater wind resistance. At this time, the movable stop 1 can overcome the frictional resistance between the positioning protrusion and the positioning groove, causing the positioning protrusion to disengage from the positioning groove, thereby unlocking the movable stop 1. Simultaneously, the movable stop 1 also pushes the elastic member 4 to undergo compression deformation, allowing the movable stop 1 to move relative to the rotor core 6 to the aforementioned first position, thereby blocking at least part of the backflow through the flow hole 61. When the speed of the rotor core 6 gradually decreases from the first rotational speed w1 to the second rotational speed w2, the wind resistance of the movable stop 1 decreases. At this time, the elastic member 4 gradually recovers its deformation, pushing the movable stop 1 to the aforementioned second position. When the speed of the rotor core 6 drops to the second rotational speed w2, the elastic member 4 pushes the movable stop 1 to the aforementioned second position. At this time, the positioning protrusion on the movable stop 1 re-inserts into the positioning groove, thereby locking the movable stop 1.
[0071] It should be noted that when the movable stop 1 is in the second position, the elastic element 4 can be in a natural state or in a state of being compressed and deformed by the movable stop 1. Specifically, when the movable stop 1 is in the second position, if the elastic element 4 is in a natural state, and the rotor core 6 is rotating at the second speed w2, the wind resistance pressure of the movable stop 1 is completely offset by the frictional resistance of the positioning protrusion and the positioning groove. When the movable stop 1 is in the second position, if the elastic element 4 is in a state of being compressed and deformed by the movable stop 1, and the rotor core 6 is rotating at the second speed w2, part of the wind resistance pressure of the movable stop 1 is offset by the frictional resistance of the positioning protrusion and the positioning groove, and the other part can be offset by the elastic force applied to the movable stop 1 by the elastic element 4.
[0072] In some implementations, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, when the aforementioned oil-blocking structure further includes an oil-blocking cap 2, and the oil-blocking cap 2 is used to fix it on the rotor core 6, the aforementioned second positioning part 201 can be disposed on the oil-blocking cap 2 to connect with the rotor core 6 through the oil-blocking cap 2. In a specific application example, the aforementioned second positioning protrusion can be disposed on the base plate 21 of the oil-blocking cap 2, and the aforementioned first positioning part 13 can be disposed on the first surface 1a of the movable stop 1.
[0073] In some embodiments, the aforementioned oil-blocking structure further includes a guide structure for guiding the movement of the movable stop 1 relative to the rotor core 6, so as to improve the movement accuracy of the movable stop 1.
[0074] To achieve the function of the aforementioned guiding structure, in some implementations, such as Figure 1-2As shown, when the oil-blocking structure also includes an oil-blocking cap 2, and the oil-blocking cap 2 is used to fix it on the rotor core 6, the aforementioned guiding structure includes a guide groove 102 and a fixing post 7. One of the guide groove 102 and the fixing post 7 is disposed on the movable stop 1, and the other is disposed on the oil-blocking cap 2. The fixing post 7 is slidably engaged with the guide groove 102. The fixing post 7 is used to guide the movement of the movable stop 1 relative to the rotor core 6 in cooperation with the guide groove 102.
[0075] In the above example, the fixed column 7 and the guide groove 102 cooperate to realize the function of the aforementioned guide structure, guiding the movement of the movable stop 1 relative to the rotor core 6.
[0076] In some embodiments, the aforementioned fixing post 7 is disposed on the base plate 21 of the oil baffle cap 2. The fixing post 7 passes through the guide groove 102. The aforementioned guide groove 102 extends from the first surface 1a of the movable stop 1 to the second surface 1b. Figure 12 As shown, the fixed post 7 is provided with another end cap 71, which is located on the second surface 1b side of the movable stop 1 to stop and limit the second surface 1b of the movable stop 1.
[0077] In some embodiments, the aforementioned fixing post 7 can be a second rivet, which can be installed by hammering. Specifically, the second rivet initially has the same outer diameter top and bottom. When installing the second rivet, one end of the second rivet is passed through the guide groove 102 and aligned with the second riveting hole on the base plate 21. Then, the other end of the second rivet is hammered to insert one end of the second rivet into the second riveting hole. The hammering deforms the outer diameter of the other end of the second rivet, thereby forming the aforementioned other end cap 71. This other end cap 71 can stop and limit the second surface 1b of the movable stop 1 to prevent the movable stop 1 from detaching from the fixing post 7. The distance between the other end cap 71 and the second surface 1b of the movable stop 1 is h1.
[0078] In some implementations, such as Figure 9 and Figure 12 As shown, the width of the aforementioned guide groove 102 is d3', the outer diameter of the aforementioned fixed post 7 is d1', and the outer diameter of the other end cap 71 is d2', wherein d1' is less than d3' and less than d2'. Because d1' is less than d3', the fixed post 7 will not contact the sidewall of the guide groove 102 in the width direction, thus preventing obstruction of the movement of the movable stop 1. Simultaneously, because d3' is less than d2', the other end cap 71 can stop and limit the movement of the second surface 1b of the movable stop 1, preventing the movable stop 1 from detaching from the fixed post 7. In some embodiments, the fitting clearance (i.e., d3'-d1') between the aforementioned fixed post 7 and the sidewall of the guide groove 102 is within a range of 5mm to prevent displacement in the direction of the rotor core 6 axis, thus avoiding additional noise problems.
[0079] In some implementations, such as Figure 9 As shown, the guide groove 102 can be an arc-shaped groove. d1 = d1', d2 = d2', d3 = d3'.
[0080] In some implementations, such as Figure 2 As shown, when the movable stop 1 is in the first position, the fixed post 7 abuts against one end of the guide groove 102 to achieve a stop and limit on the movable stop 1 in the first position. Figure 1 As shown, when the movable stop 1 is also used to move relative to the rotor core 6 to the second position when the rotor core 6 is running at the second speed w2, and when the movable stop 1 is in the second position, the fixed column 7 abuts against the other end of the guide groove 102 to achieve the stop and limit of the movable stop 1 in the second position.
[0081] The present invention also provides a rotor assembly, which may include the oil baffle structure of any of the above.
[0082] The present invention also provides an electric motor, which includes the oil baffle structure of any one of the above, or includes the rotor assembly of the above.
[0083] The present invention also provides a compressor that includes the oil baffle structure of any of the above, or includes the rotor assembly of the above, or includes the motor of the above.
[0084] Since the rotor assembly, motor and compressor all adopt the above-mentioned oil-blocking structure, the movable baffle 1 can block the flow hole 61 that causes backflow when the rotor core 6 is running at the first speed w1, such as high speed, thereby reducing the flow area of backflow and reducing the oil discharge rate of the compressor.
[0085] When the compressor using the above-mentioned oil-blocking structure operates at different frequencies, the speed of the rotor core 6 varies. The oil-blocking structure of this invention, through the movement of the movable baffle 1, can change the flow orifice area of the rotor core 6 at different speeds. Specifically, when the rotor core 6 rotates at high speed, the movable baffle 1 can block at least a portion of the flow orifice 61 where backflow occurs, thereby reducing the backflow flow area and lowering the oil discharge rate. When the rotor core 6 rotates at low speed, the movable baffle 1 opens the flow orifice 61, ensuring maximum flow area, thus reducing flow friction loss and power consumption.
[0086] When the aforementioned rotor core 6 is running at high speed at the first speed w1, some of the flow holes 61 on the rotor core 6 will experience backflow. In order to determine the flow holes 61 that experience backflow, fluid simulation can be performed for the compressor model. Based on the flow state of the simulation results, it can be determined which flow holes 61 are backflow holes. Then, the movable stop 1 can be used to block the backflow holes.
[0087] At the high speed (w1) of the compressor, the air resistance of the movable baffle 1 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic element 4 and the resistance between the positioning protrusion and the positioning groove, allowing the movable baffle 1 to move to the aforementioned first position under the push of its own air resistance. This achieves the purpose of blocking the backflow through the flow hole 61, reducing the flow area and lowering the oil discharge rate. At the low speed (w2) of the compressor, the air resistance of the movable baffle 1 is less than the sum of the elastic force of the elastic element 4 and the resistance between the stator protrusion and the positioning groove, thus ensuring that the flow hole 61 is not blocked and the flow area is maximized.
[0088] like Figure 1-2 As shown, the aforementioned rotor core 6 may also be provided with a balance block 5, which can be fixedly connected to the rotor core 6 by screws.
[0089] The oil-blocking structure of the present invention has two states, such as... Figure 1 As shown, Figure 1 This is the state at low speed, at which time the rotor core 6 operates at the second speed w2; Figure 2 This is the high-speed state, where the rotor core 6 operates at a first speed w1. As shown in the diagram, the state of the movable stop 1 directly determines the flow area of the specific flow hole 61, and the state of the movable stop 1 is determined by the position of the fixed member 3 within the elastic member receiving groove 101. For example... Figure 1 As shown, in the initial static state, the fixed member 3 is located to the right of the elastic member receiving groove 101. At this time, the movable stop 1 is locked by the elastic member 4 and the positioning protrusion and positioning groove through their interlocking. At the low speed state of the second speed w2, the rotor core 6 drives the movable stop 1 to rotate. The movable stop 1 should have a relative displacement with respect to the rotor core 6. However, due to insufficient wind resistance, the movable stop 1 cannot release the interlocking state of the positioning protrusion and positioning groove. At this time, the blocking part 11 of the movable stop 1 is located between two adjacent flow holes 61, without blocking the flow holes 61, thus maximizing the flow area.
[0090] like Figure 2 As shown, when the speed is at the high speed of the first speed w1, the wind resistance of the movable stop 1 overcomes the elastic force of the elastic element 4 plus the critical force for releasing the locked state by the concave-convex fit and some frictional force, and the movable stop 1 is displaced to make the blocking part 11 of the movable stop 1 at least block part of the flow hole 61 where the backflow occurs, reducing the flow area of the specified backflow flow hole 61; when the speed of the rotor core 6 drops from the first speed w1 to the second speed w2, the movable stop 1 returns to the initial second position under the drive of the elastic element 4, realizing the reset.
[0091] The technical solution of the present invention enables the flow state of the flow hole 61 to change with the increase of the operating frequency. When operating at low frequency, the flow area is maximized, while when operating at high frequency, the flow area of backflow is reduced by partially blocking the backflow hole, thereby reducing the oil discharge rate.
