Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobile electronic water pumps, in particular to a rotor assembly and an electronic water pump having the same. Background Art
[0002] New energy vehicles, RVs and other special vehicles often use micro water pumps as water circulation, cooling or on-board water supply systems. This type of micro self-priming water pump is collectively referred to as an automotive electronic water pump.
[0003] The automotive electronic water pump in the current technology generally consists of the following components: a housing as the working space, in which the motor component and the impeller component are integrated, the motor component is used to provide power to the impeller component, and the water body is pressurized by the action of the impeller component. The motor component specifically includes a stator component, a rotor component and a rotating shaft, wherein the rotor component can rotate in response to the magnetic field between the stator component and the rotor component, and the impeller component is driven by the rotor component to rotate to realize the operation of the impeller component, and the rotating shaft is used to guide the movement of the rotor component.
[0004] In order to achieve rotation consistency and reduce kinetic energy loss, the rotor assembly in the prior art usually integrates the impeller assembly into an integrated structure, that is, the pre-packaged shell in the rotor assembly and the impeller assembly are integrally injection molded, which results in a large amount of bearing material being used when connecting the rotor assembly to the rotating shaft. In addition, since the impeller needs to be molded according to different fluids, the rotor assembly and the electronic water pump are not easy to be platformized. Utility Model Content
[0005] Based on the above defects, the utility model proposes to design the pre-packaged shell and the impeller assembly in the rotor assembly as a split structure, so that when used on different water pumps, the rotor assembly can be used as a universal part, and only the impeller assembly needs to be molded. This is conducive to the platformization of the rotor assembly and the electronic water pump, reduces the amount of bearing material used, and can effectively reduce the air gap of the motor.
[0006] Based on this, the utility model provides a rotor assembly and an electronic water pump having the same, so as to realize the technical concept.
[0007] Specifically, a rotor assembly is used in an electronic water pump to generate excitation with a stator assembly to rotate, and includes a rotor pre-pack assembly and an impeller assembly;
[0008] The difference from the traditional structure is:
[0009] The rotor pre-package assembly includes a pre-package shell, which is fixedly connected to the impeller assembly, so that the pre-package shell and other structures of the rotor pre-package assembly can be designed as universal parts. When it needs to be applied to different electronic water pumps, only the impeller assembly needs to be redesigned and molded, which is easy to platformize;
[0010] In addition, the pre-package shell is made of metal material. Different from the 1mm thickness of plastic injection molding in traditional structures, the thickness of the pre-package shell prepared by this technology is 0.2-0.6mm, which can effectively reduce the air gap of the motor, thereby improving the efficiency of the motor and water pump by more than 5%.
[0011] Preferably, the impeller assembly includes a lower impeller, and the lower impeller and the pre-package shell are axially and radially positioned by protrusions and grooves provided on both.
[0012] Preferably, the impeller assembly includes an upper impeller, and the upper impeller is fixedly connected to the lower impeller.
[0013] Preferably, the rotor pre-package assembly also includes an iron core, a plurality of magnets and an isolation sleeve. The plurality of magnets are arranged around the iron core along the circumference of the iron core. The magnets and the iron core are both installed in the pre-package shell and wrapped by the isolation sleeve.
[0014] In addition, the utility model also provides an electronic water pump, which includes a housing and a rotating shaft fixed in the housing, and also includes the aforementioned rotor assembly, in which the rotor pre-package assembly and the impeller assembly in the rotor assembly are respectively matched with the rotating shaft clearance through bearings, that is, two smaller bearings are used to make the rotor assembly and the rotating shaft clearance match, thereby reducing the amount of bearing material used.
[0015] Preferably, the electronic water pump further comprises a stator assembly, so that the rotor pre-enclosed assembly can rotate in response to the magnetic field between the stator assembly and the rotor pre-enclosed assembly, and drive the impeller assembly to rotate to increase the pressure of the water body.
[0016] Preferably, the electronic water pump further comprises a waterproof sleeve, which is used to isolate the stator assembly from the rotor assembly to prevent water from contacting the stator assembly. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The rotor pre-package assembly 1 includes a pre-package shell 11. The pre-package shell 11 is fixedly connected to the impeller assembly 2.
[0032] In this embodiment, the pre-package housing 11 follows the structure of a conventional electronic water pump, the only difference being that the pre-package housing 11 is not integrally injection molded with the impeller assembly 2 .
[0033] Further, such as Figure 2 The impeller assembly 2 includes a lower impeller 21. The lower impeller 21 and the pre-package shell 11 are axially and radially positioned by protrusions 211 and grooves 111 arranged on the two. In this embodiment, there are two grooves 111, which are arranged at the end of the pre-package shell 11 and distributed along the circumference of the pre-package shell 11. There are also two corresponding buckles, which are protruding from the lower impeller 21 and distributed along the circumference of the lower impeller 21. The depth of the groove 111 or the protrusion 211 is 0.3-2mm.
[0034] Further, such as Figure 2 The impeller assembly 2 includes an upper impeller 22, which is fixedly connected to a lower impeller 21. In the present embodiment, the upper impeller 22 and the lower impeller 21 are fixedly matched by an annular protrusion on the lower impeller 21 and an annular groove 111 on the upper impeller 22.
[0035] Further, such as Figure 2 The rotor pre-package assembly 1 also includes an iron core 12, a plurality of magnetic steels 13 and an isolation sleeve 14. The plurality of magnetic steels 13 are arranged around the iron core 12 along the circumference of the iron core 12.

[0037] Further, such as Figure 1 The electronic water pump also includes a stator assembly 7. The stator assembly 7 uses a traditional structure, so that the rotor pre-package assembly 1 can rotate in response to the magnetic field between the stator assembly 7 and the rotor pre-package assembly 1, and drive the impeller assembly 2 to rotate to increase the pressure of the water body.
[0038] Further, such as Figure 1 The electronic water pump also includes a waterproof sleeve 8, which is used to isolate the stator assembly 7 from the rotor assembly to prevent water from contacting the stator assembly 7.
