DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments of the present application.
[0019] Please refer to Figures 1-9 The present application provides a technical solution: a lubricating oil circulating heat dissipation fan, comprising a horizontally placed outer frame 100 and a fan blade assembly 200 arranged inside the outer frame 100. The heat dissipation fan is horizontally placed, the fan blade assembly 200 blows upward to dissipate heat, and the lubricating oil inside the heat dissipation fan can return under the action of gravity.
[0020] The middle of one side of the outer frame 100 is provided with a mounting seat 102, and a support rod 101 is arranged in a ring array around the mounting seat 102. The end of the support rod 101 is fixedly connected with the outer frame 100. The mounting seat 102 is fixed at the center of one side of the outer frame 100 through the support rod 101. The center of the mounting seat 102 is provided with a mounting column 103. An installation hole is formed in the center of the mounting column 103. The fan blade assembly 200 is installed on the mounting seat 102. The motor is arranged between the fan blade assembly 200 and the mounting seat 102. The mounting column 103 is ensured to be located at the center axis of the outer frame 100, and the output shaft of the motor can be connected with the center position of the fan blade assembly 200. The fan blade assembly 200 can be driven to rotate stably by the motor, so as to blow upward to dissipate heat.
[0021] The motor comprises, from outside to inside, a shell 203, a magnetic ring 204, a magnetic core 205, an oil shaft 207 and a shaft core 206. The fan blade assembly 200 is installed at the end of the shaft core 206. The shaft core 206, of which the outer part is sleeved with the oil shaft 207, is inserted into the shaft center of the mounting column 103. A clamping spring 209 is fixedly sleeved with the side of the surface of the shaft core 206 which is above the oil shaft 207. An oil storage cavity is arranged at the position of the outer side of the shaft core 206 which is below the oil shaft 207. Specifically, the position of the fan clamping spring 209 is adjusted, so that the clamping spring 209 rotates simultaneously with the shaft core 206. When the fan operates, the shaft core 206 rotates synchronously. Under the action of centrifugal force, the lubricating oil in the oil storage cavity flows upward along the gap between the outer wall of the shaft core 206 and the inner wall of the oil shaft 207. When the lubricating oil flows to the position of the clamping spring 209, under the action of centrifugal force, the lubricating oil flows along the lower surface of the clamping spring 209 and is thrown out. The lubricating oil is thrown onto the inner wall of the mounting column 103, and then flows back to the oil storage cavity along the gap between the inner wall of the mounting column 103 and the outer wall of the oil shaft 207. Since the fan is always operating, the hydraulic oil will flow upward along the shaft core under the action of centrifugal force, and this behavior is repeated, thereby playing a true lubrication and protection function, and improving the quality and service life of the fan.
[0022] The fan blade assembly 200 comprises a fan blade seat 201 fixedly installed at the end of the shaft core 206. The fan blade seat 201 is arranged in a ring array around the outer periphery. The fan blade seat 201 is driven to rotate by the rotating shaft core 206, so as to drive the fan blades 202 to blow upward, thereby playing a heat dissipation role.
[0023] The shell 203 wraps the magnetic ring 204, so that the inside of the motor is isolated from the outside world, and foreign matters are prevented from falling into the inside of the motor to affect the normal work of the motor. The magnetic ring 204 is sleeved outside the magnetic core 205. The magnetic core 205 is sleeved outside the mounting column 103. The magnetic ring 204 forms a magnetic field in the motor. When electric current flows in, the magnetic field is excited. The magnetic ring 204, the magnetic core 205 and the shaft core 206 form a stator, which can drive the shaft core 206 to rotate.
[0024] The bottom of the magnetic core 205 is provided with a PCB board 210, and the PCB board 210 can be provided with a circuit for supplying power to the motor and controlling the operation of the motor. The center of the PCB board 210 is provided with a hollow slot matched with the mounting column 103, and the PCB board 210 is sleeved outside the mounting column 103 through the hollow slot.
[0025] The top of the mounting hole is provided with a partition plate, and the center of the partition plate is provided with a through hole matched with the shaft core 206. The inside of the mounting hole is located below the partition plate. The shaft core 206, which is sleeved with the oil shaft 207, is located in the lubricating oil flow cavity. When the fan is running, the shaft core 206 rotates synchronously. Under the action of centrifugal force, the lubricating oil in the oil storage cavity flows upward along the gap between the outer wall of the shaft core 206 and the inner wall of the oil shaft 207. When the lubricating oil flows to the position of the snap spring 209, under the action of centrifugal force, the lubricating oil flows along the lower surface of the snap spring 209 and is thrown out. The lubricating oil is thrown onto the inner wall of the mounting column 103, and then the lubricating oil flows back to the oil storage cavity along the gap between the inner wall of the mounting column 103 and the outer wall of the oil shaft 207.
[0026] The inner diameter of the through hole is larger than the diameter of the cross section of the shaft core 206. The diameter of the snap spring 209 is larger than the inner diameter of the through hole. During the upward flow of the lubricating oil along the shaft core 206, when the lubricating oil flows to the position of the snap spring 209, the snap spring 209 can block the lubricating oil from flowing upward along the shaft core 206, preventing the lubricating oil from flowing out. At the same time, when the shaft core 206 drives the snap spring 209 to rotate, the lubricating oil will spread outward along the lower surface of the snap spring 209 and be brushed out. The size of the snap spring 209 is larger than that of the through hole, so that the through hole can be covered by the snap spring 209, preventing the lubricating oil from being thrown into the through hole and avoiding the loss of lubricating oil.
[0027] The surface of the shaft core 206 is provided with an annular groove 208 matched with the snap spring 209. The snap spring 209 is fixedly sleeved on the shaft core 206 through the annular groove 208. The snap spring 209 is fixedly connected to the surface of the shaft core 206 through the annular groove 208, so that the snap spring 209 can rotate synchronously with the shaft core 206. When the lubricating oil flows upward along the shaft core 206, the snap spring 209 will also generate centrifugal force, causing the lubricating oil to flow along the lower surface of the snap spring 209 and be thrown out. The lubricating oil is thrown onto the inner wall of the mounting column 103, and then the lubricating oil flows back to the oil storage cavity along the gap between the inner wall of the mounting column 103 and the outer wall of the oil shaft 207.
[0028] The bottom of the mounting column 103 is provided with an oil seal cover 211. The oil seal cover 211 seals the bottom of the lubricating oil flow cavity, and forms an oil storage cavity below the oil shaft 207. The bottom of the mounting column 103 is sealed by the oil seal cover 211, and the oil storage cavity is formed.
[0029] The graphite pad 212 is arranged on the inner side of the oil seal cover 211 corresponding to the position of the mounting hole, so as to increase the sealing effect of the bottom of the mounting column 103.
[0030] Working principle: when the fan is running, the shaft core 206 rotates synchronously, and under the action of centrifugal force, the lubricating oil in the oil storage cavity flows upward along the gap between the outer wall of the shaft core 206 and the inner wall of the oil shaft 207. When the lubricating oil flows to the position of the clasp 209, under the action of centrifugal force, the lubricating oil flows along the lower surface of the clasp 209 and is thrown out. The lubricating oil is thrown onto the inner wall of the mounting column 103, and then the lubricating oil flows back to the oil storage cavity along the gap between the inner wall of the mounting column 103 and the outer wall of the oil shaft 207. Since the fan is always running, the hydraulic oil will flow upward along the shaft core under the action of centrifugal force, and this behavior will be repeated, thereby achieving the functions of true lubrication and protection, and improving the quality and service life of the fan.
[0031] Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
