Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of motor heat dissipation, and specifically to a motor with a water cooling function. Background Art
[0002] Motors are widely used as power output devices in industrial production and mechanical equipment. When a motor operates at high speed, its internal coils, core, and other components generate significant heat due to electromagnetic induction and mechanical friction. If this heat cannot be dissipated promptly, the motor's temperature will rise, reducing its efficiency and lifespan. In severe cases, it can even cause safety incidents such as motor burnout.
[0003] At present, in order to effectively cool the motor, most of the existing technologies use water cooling, air cooling and other methods. Among them, water cooling has been widely used in the heat dissipation of high-power motors due to its advantages such as high heat dissipation efficiency and stable cooling effect. The existing water cooling method is usually connected to the external pipe through a water cooling pipe, and the circulating low-temperature water is used to absorb and take away the heat generated by the motor.
[0004] To ensure the flexible use of the motor under different working conditions, the connection between the water-cooling pipe and the external pipe often relies on threaded joints to achieve detachable assembly. However, during long-term use, this type of threaded connection structure is affected by the continuous vibration during motor operation, and the thread fit clearance is prone to gradually increase, thereby causing the interface to loosen. In addition, the threaded connection lacks an additional locking and positioning structure, which makes it inconvenient to perform secondary fixation on the pipe after the threaded connection. Once loosening occurs, the coolant will leak from the gap, which will not only cause coolant loss and affect the heat dissipation efficiency, but may also cause short circuits in surrounding electrical components due to leakage. Therefore, it is necessary to provide a motor with water cooling function to solve the above problems.
[0005] It should be noted that the above information disclosed in this Background section is only for understanding the background technology of the present application concept, and therefore, it may contain information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0031] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features of the embodiments in this application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0032] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present invention, the following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of this application.
[0033] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the present application provides a motor with water cooling function, including a motor body 1. The motor body 1 is a prior art, and is composed of a cast iron housing, a stator, a rotor and a bearing. It is the heat dissipation object of the water cooling part. The heat generated during its operation needs to be dissipated through the water cooling part to ensure its normal operation.
[0034] A water-cooling assembly 2 is mounted on the motor body 1. The water-cooling assembly 2 is used to dissipate heat from the motor body 1 and dissipate heat generated by the motor through internal heat dissipation elements. The water-cooling assembly 2 includes a protective cover 21 fixedly mounted on the outer shell of the motor body 1. The protective cover 21 provides physical protection for the internal components to prevent interference or damage from external debris and collisions, and also provides a mounting base for the leak-proof adapter.
[0035] A plurality of heat dissipation fins 22 fixed to the outer shell of the motor body 1 are installed in the protective cover 21. The heat dissipation fins 22 can absorb the heat generated by the motor body 1, increase the contact area with the heat-conducting component, improve the heat transfer efficiency, and transfer the heat to the coolant in the heat-conducting component. A heat-conducting water pipe 23 is embedded in the heat dissipation fins 22. The heat-conducting water pipe 23 is a circulation channel for the coolant. The flow of the coolant in the heat-conducting water pipe 23 removes the heat transferred by the heat dissipation fins 22, thereby achieving heat transfer.
[0036] At one end of the heat conducting pipe 23 is a water inlet 24, which serves as the inlet for the coolant to enter the heat conducting pipe 23 and receives low-temperature coolant from the outside. At the other end is a water outlet 25, which serves as the outlet for the coolant after absorbing heat and discharges the coolant carrying heat to an external circulation device.
[0037] like Figure 1 and Figure 4-Figure 6 As shown, a leak-proof adapter assembly 3 is installed on the protective cover 21, and the leak-proof adapter assembly 3 is used to connect the water-cooling assembly 2 and the external pipeline to prevent the coolant from leaking at the connection part, and at the same time realize the detachable connection of the pipeline to ensure the stability of the connection. The leak-proof adapter assembly 3 includes adapter plates 31 respectively fixedly installed on both ends of the protective cover 21, and a transfer pipe 311 is connected to the adapter plate 31, wherein the adapter plate 31 plays a connecting and fixing role, providing an installation support point for the transfer pipe 311, ensuring that the transfer pipe 311 is accurately connected with the water inlet head 24 and the drainage head 25. The transfer pipe 311 is a transfer channel for the coolant to circulate between the water-cooling assembly 2 and the external pipeline, realizing the smooth transmission of the coolant. The transfer pipe 311 at one end is connected with the water inlet head 24, and the transfer pipe 311 at the other end is connected with the drainage head 25;
[0038] A sealing ring 312 is threadedly connected to one end of the transfer tube 311. The tightness of the threaded connection enhances the sealing performance of the connection between the transfer tube 311 and the pipe, preventing coolant leakage from this area. A rotating disk 313 is fixed to the sealing ring 312. The rotating disk 313 provides a convenient force point for the operator to rotate the sealing ring 312, allowing the sealing ring 312 to be easily threadedly connected to or removed from the transfer tube 311 and the intermediate pipe 35.
[0039] Three sets of connecting rods 32 are fixed on the adapter plate 31, and a main fastening cover 33 is fixedly installed on the other end of the connecting rod 32. The connecting rod 32 plays the role of supporting and fixing the main fastening cover 33, ensuring that the main fastening cover 33 is stably installed on the adapter plate 31, forming a stable connection structure;
[0040] Two groups of first semi-arc plates 331 are fixed to the other end outside the main fastening cover 33. The first semi-arc plates 331 are symmetrically distributed, and a first clamping joint 332 is fixed to one end of each of the first semi-arc plates 331. The first semi-arc plates 331 provide a stable installation base for the first clamping joint 332. The adjacent area of the first semi-arc plates 331 is set as a first insertion area 333. The auxiliary fastening cover 34 is clamped and installed at the other end of the main fastening cover 33. Two groups of second semi-arc plates 341 adapted to the first clamping joint 332 are fixed to one end outside the auxiliary fastening cover 34. A second clamping joint 342 adapted to the first semi-arc plate 331 is fixed to one end of each of the second semi-arc plates 341. The adjacent area of the two groups of second semi-arc plates 341 is set as a second insertion area 343.
[0041] Specifically, the first insertion area 333 reserves space for inserting corresponding components of the auxiliary fastening cover 34. When the main fastening cover 33 needs to be connected to the auxiliary fastening cover 34, the two sets of second clamping joints 342 at the outer end of the auxiliary fastening cover 34 are first aligned with the first insertion area 333 of the main fastening cover 33 and inserted. At the same time, the first clamping joints 332 of the main fastening cover 33 are correspondingly inserted into the second insertion area 343 of the auxiliary fastening cover 34. Then, by rotating the auxiliary fastening cover 34, the hook structure (not shown in the figure) of the first clamping joint 332 is engaged with the second semi-arc plate 341, and the hook structure (not shown in the figure) of the second clamping joint 342 is engaged with the first semi-arc plate 331, forming axial positioning, which can prevent the two from relative displacement when the motor vibrates.
[0042] A first shock-absorbing pad 334 is fixedly installed at the other end of the main fastening cover 33, and a second shock-absorbing pad 344 that fits tightly with the first shock-absorbing pad 334 is fixedly installed at one end of the auxiliary fastening cover 34. The first shock-absorbing pad 334 and the second shock-absorbing pad 344 are made of silicone rubber. After the main fastening cover 33 and the auxiliary fastening cover 34 are connected, a tightly fitting elastic buffer layer is formed. The two absorb the vibration energy generated by the motor running through their own elastic deformation, which can effectively buffer the impact on the connection part, reduce the impact of vibration on the main and auxiliary fastening cover clamping structure and pipeline connection, and reduce component wear.
[0043] An intermediate tube 35 is connected to the axial center of the auxiliary fastening cover 34. One end of the intermediate tube 35 passes through the main fastening cover 33, and a transfer tube 311 is inserted into the interior of this end of the intermediate tube 35. The other end of the sealing ring 312 is threadedly connected to one end of the intermediate tube 35. The intermediate tube 35 serves as a transfer channel for coolant to flow between the transfer tube 311 and the external pipeline. The threaded connection between the intermediate tube 35 and the sealing ring 312 further enhances the seal and ensures stable coolant delivery.
[0044] An external water pipe 36 connected to the intermediate pipe 35 is installed at the other end of the auxiliary fastening cover 34. The external water pipe 36 serves as a connecting carrier between the external coolant circulation system and the intermediate pipe 35, transporting low-temperature coolant in or out of the coolant after absorbing heat. Its flexible characteristics can adapt to the slight displacement of the motor to ensure smooth circulation.
[0045] Working principle: The coolant in the external cooling circulation system is connected to the external water pipe 36 through an external water pump and water pipe, then enters the intermediate pipe 35 from the external water pipe 36, flows into the water inlet head 24 of the water cooling component 2 through the transfer pipe 311, and then circulates in the hot water pipe 23. The hot water pipe 23 is in full contact with the heat dissipation fins 22, absorbing the heat generated by the operation of the motor body 1. The coolant after absorbing heat is discharged through the drain head 25, the transfer pipe 311 at the other end, and the external water pipe 36, and flows back to the external circulation equipment for cooling, completing the heat dissipation cycle. The motor body 1 is fixed and serves as the power output in the production line.
[0046] After the external water pipe 36 is connected to the intermediate pipe 35, the second clamping joint 342 of the auxiliary fastening cover 34 is inserted into the first insertion area 333 of the main fastening cover 33, and the first clamping joint 332 of the main fastening cover 33 is inserted into the second insertion area 343 of the auxiliary fastening cover 34. The auxiliary fastening cover 34 is rotated so that the barbs of the clamping joints engage with each other, achieving mechanical fixation and forming axial positioning. This can prevent relative displacement between the main fastening cover 33 and the auxiliary fastening cover 34 when the motor vibrates. At the same time, the first shock-absorbing pad 334 and the second shock-absorbing pad 344 fit tightly together, absorbing the motor vibration energy through elastic deformation, reducing the risk of enlargement of the thread gap. The multiple structures work together to prevent coolant leakage and ensure long-term stable operation of the motor.
[0047] Next, the sealing ring 312 is rotated by means of the rotating disk 313 so as to be threadedly connected to the transfer tube 311 and the intermediate tube 35 at the same time to form a seal, and also to lock the auxiliary fastening cover 34, further improving the overall sealing and structural stability of the connection part.
[0048] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Various modifications and variations are possible for those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included within the scope of protection of the present application.
