DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0040] The following is combined with Figures 1 to 6 This application is described in further detail.

[0041] Embodiment 1: This embodiment of the present application discloses an EC motor. Figure 1 and Figure 2 The EC motor includes a DC motor 1, an end cover 2, a connecting component 3 and a rectifier 4. The DC motor 1 is installed on a frame 6 of a unit 5. The end cover 2 is installed at the rear end of the DC motor 1. A fan blade 7 is installed at the output end of the DC motor 1. The connecting component 3 is installed between the end cover 2 and the outer shell of the DC motor 1. The rectifier 4 is installed inside the end cover 2. The rectifier 4 is electrically connected to the inside of the DC motor 1, and the rectifier 4 can convert the external input AC power into DC power and transmit the DC power to the DC motor 1.

[0042] After the rectifier 4 is connected to the external AC power source, the rectifier 4 converts the AC power into DC power and transmits the DC power to the DC motor 1. Since the DC motor 1 has higher efficiency than the AC motor, under the same power, the speed at which the DC motor 1 drives the fan blades 7 to rotate is greater than the speed at which the AC motor drives the fan blades 7 to rotate, so that the heat dissipated by the DC motor 1 is less, so only one row of heat dissipation pipes 8 need to be arranged inside the unit 5, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing costs and increasing efficiency.

[0043] Preferably, the connection assembly 3 includes a first connection seat 9, a second connection seat 10 and a connection threaded member 11, the first connection seat 9 is fixedly connected to the outside of the end cover 2, the second connection seat 10 is fixedly connected to the housing of the DC motor 1, the first connection seat 9 and the second connection seat 10 are both provided in two, the first connection seat 9 is provided with a first threaded hole, the second connection seat 10 is provided with a second threaded hole, and the connection threaded member 11 is threadedly connected to the first threaded hole and the second threaded hole respectively. In this embodiment, the connection threaded member 11 is a countersunk screw.

[0044] By passing the connecting threaded member 11 through the first threaded hole of the first connecting seat 9 and the second threaded hole of the second connecting seat 10, the first connecting seat 9 and the second connecting seat 10 can be connected to achieve a detachable fixed installation between the end cover 2 and the DC motor 1, which is convenient for disassembly and assembly of the end cover 2 and maintenance of the rectifier 4.

[0045] Furthermore, a sealing ring 12 is fixed to one end of the end cover 2 close to the DC motor 1, the sealing ring 12 and the end cover 2 are bonded by glue, and the side of the sealing ring 12 away from the end cover 2 is tightly pressed against the rear end of the DC motor 1. In this embodiment, the sealing ring 12 is made of rubber material.

[0046] After the end cover 2 is installed on the rear end of the DC motor 1 , one side of the sealing ring 12 is tightly pressed against the rear end of the DC motor 1 , thereby improving the sealing performance between the end cover 2 and the DC motor 1 .

[0047] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 Preferably, a mounting assembly 13 is installed between the DC motor 1 and the frame 6, and the DC motor 1 and the frame 6 are connected through the mounting assembly 13. The mounting assembly 13 includes a first mounting seat 14, a shock-absorbing cylinder 15, a mounting bolt 16 and a mounting nut 17. The first mounting seat 14 is fixedly connected to the housing of the DC motor 1. Four first mounting seats 14 are provided, and the four first mounting seats 14 are arranged along the circumferential direction of the housing of the DC motor 1. The shock-absorbing cylinder 15 is installed on the first mounting seat 14. The shock-absorbing cylinder 15 is hollow. The mounting bolt 16 passes through the shock-absorbing cylinder 15 and the frame 6 of the unit 5, and the mounting nut 17 is threadedly connected to the mounting bolt 16. In this embodiment, the shock-absorbing cylinder 15 is made of rubber material.

[0048] First, place the DC motor 1 at the corresponding position on the frame 6, then pass the mounting bolt 16 through the shock-absorbing cylinder 15 and the frame 6 of the unit 5, thread the mounting nut 17 with the mounting bolt 16, and tighten the mounting nut 17 to achieve the installation of the DC motor 1. In this way, the DC motor 1 and the frame 6 can be detachably fixedly installed, and the setting of the shock-absorbing cylinder 15 can also play a certain role in damping the DC motor 1.

[0049] Reference Figure 3 and Figure 4 Furthermore, a protective layer 18 is fixed to the inner side of the shock absorbing cylinder 15. In the present embodiment, the protective layer 18 can be made of a material with good wear resistance such as steel, stainless steel, chrome alloy steel, copper alloy, etc.

[0050] Since the mounting bolts 16 need to pass through the inner side of the shock absorbing tube 15 , it is easy to cause damage to the shock absorbing tube 15 . The protective layer 18 made of a material with good wear resistance can protect the shock absorbing tube 15 and increase the service life of the shock absorbing tube 15 .

[0051] Reference Figure 3 Preferably, a card interface 19 is provided on the first mounting seat 14, and the card interface 19 is used to card the shock-absorbing cylinder 15 to the first mounting seat 14. Two clamping sleeves 20 are integrally fixed to the outer side of the shock-absorbing cylinder 15, and the two clamping sleeves 20 are respectively fitted with two ends of the first mounting seat 14. In this embodiment, the clamping sleeves 20 are also made of rubber material.

[0052] After the DC motor 1 is removed, since the card interface 19 is provided and the shock absorber cylinder 15 itself has a certain elasticity, the shock absorber cylinder 15 can be removed from the card interface 19, which is convenient for the disassembly and maintenance of the shock absorber cylinder 15. In addition, after the shock absorber cylinder 15 is inserted into the card interface 19, the two clamping sleeves 20 can respectively fit with the two ends of the first mounting seat 14, so that the shock absorber cylinder 15 is not easily detached from the card interface 19.

[0053] The implementation principle of an EC motor in an embodiment of the present application is as follows: after the rectifier 4 is connected to an external AC power source, the rectifier 4 converts the AC power into DC power and transmits the DC power to the DC motor 1. Since the DC motor 1 has a higher efficiency than the AC motor, under the same power, the speed at which the DC motor 1 drives the fan blades 7 to rotate is greater than the speed at which the AC motor drives the fan blades 7 to rotate, so that the heat dissipated by the DC motor 1 is less, and only one row of heat dissipation pipes 8 need to be arranged inside the unit 5, thereby achieving the purpose of reducing costs and increasing efficiency.

[0054] Example 2: Reference Figure 5The difference between this embodiment and the embodiment 1 is that the connection assembly 3 includes a third connection seat 21, a fourth connection seat 22, a plug-in slot 23, a mounting tube 24, a plug-in rod 25 and an elastic member 26. The third connection seat 21 is fixedly connected to the end cover 2, the fourth connection seat 22 is fixedly connected to the housing of the DC motor 1, the size of the fourth connection seat 22 is larger than the size of the third connection seat 21, the plug-in slot 23 is opened at one end of the fourth connection seat 22 close to the third connection seat 21, and the plug-in slot 23 is plugged with the third connection seat 21, and the mounting tube 24 is fixedly connected to the fourth connection seat 2 2, the installation cylinder 24 is hollow, the interior of the installation cylinder 24 is connected to the plug-in slot 23, the plug-in rod 25 is slidably connected in the installation cylinder 24, the two ends of the plug-in rod 25 extend out of the two ends of the installation cylinder 24 respectively, the plug-in rod 25 passes through the fourth connection seat 22, and the plug-in rod 25 is plugged and matched with the third connection seat 21, and the third connection seat 21 is provided with a plug-in hole 27 plugged and matched with the plug-in rod 25, a circular plate 28 is fixed on the outside of the plug-in rod 25, the circular plate 28 is slidably connected in the installation cylinder 24, and the elastic member 26 is fixedly connected between the circular plate 28 and the inner wall of the installation cylinder 24. In this embodiment, the elastic member 26 is a spring.

[0055] When installing the end cover 2, place the end cover 2 at the corresponding position of the rear end of the DC motor 1, then insert the third connection seat 21 into the plug slot 23 of the fourth connection seat 22, pull the plug rod 25 outward, so that the plug rod 25 is completely extended out of the plug slot 23, at this time, the elastic member 26 is in a compressed state, when the plug rod 25 is aligned with the plug hole 27, release the plug rod 25, so that the elastic member 26 pushes the plug rod 25 into the plug hole 27, thereby realizing the rapid installation of the end cover 2. Similarly, the end cover 2 can be quickly disassembled.

[0056] It should be noted that, since an elastic sealing ring 12 is provided between the DC motor 1 and the end cover 2, when the plug rod 25 is aligned with the plug hole 27 and the plug rod 25 is inserted into the plug hole 27, the sealing ring 12 has been compressed to a certain extent, so that the sealing ring 12 can apply a thrust to the end cover 2 and the DC motor 1 away from each other, and this thrust can increase the friction between the plug rod 25 and the plug hole 27 to reduce the phenomenon of the plug rod 25 being separated from the plug hole 27 when the DC motor 1 vibrates. In addition, since a damping is provided between the circular plate 28 and the mounting cylinder 24, the phenomenon of the plug rod 25 being separated from the plug hole 27 when the DC motor 1 vibrates can be further reduced.

[0057] Reference Figure 6 The present application also discloses an air conditioning unit, including the above-mentioned EC motor and unit 5, wherein a frame 6 is installed inside the unit 5, and the frame 6 is used to install the DC motor 1. Four connecting plates 29 are fixed on the frame 6, and connecting holes are opened on the connecting plates 29 for the installation bolts 16 to pass through.

[0058] When installing the DC motor 1, first place the DC motor 1 at the corresponding position on the frame 6, align the shock absorber tube 15 with the connecting piece 29, then pass the mounting bolt 16 through the shock absorber tube 15 and the connecting piece 29, thread the mounting nut 17 with the mounting bolt 16, and tighten the mounting nut 17 to achieve the installation of the DC motor 1.

[0059] Preferably, a row of heat dissipation pipes 8 is installed inside the unit 5, and the heat dissipation pipes 8 are located at the rear side of the DC motor 1. Since the DC motor 1 has a higher efficiency than the AC motor, under the same power, the speed at which the DC motor 1 drives the fan blades 7 to rotate is greater than the speed at which the AC motor drives the fan blades 7 to rotate, so that the heat dissipated by the DC motor 1 is less, and thus only one row of heat dissipation pipes 8 need to be arranged inside the unit 5.

[0060] The above are all preferred embodiments of the present application, and the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Therefore, any equivalent changes made according to the structure, shape, and principle of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
