[0014] It should be noted that the following detailed descriptions are exemplary and are intended to provide further explanation of the present application. Unless otherwise specified, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those commonly understood by those skilled in the art to which the present application belongs.

[0015] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, it indicates the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0016] like Figure 2 As shown, a fully enclosed generator structure includes a casing 4 with a stator 5 and a rotor 6 inside, the stator and the rotor are formed by stacking a plurality of stator punching sheets, and a coil is wound thereon, the front end of the casing 4 is connected to a front cover 7, and the rear end is connected to a rear cover 8, the casing, the front cover and the rear cover form a closed outer shell structure, the inner periphery of the casing 4 is provided with a plurality of return air channels 9 along the front and rear directions, a fan 3 is provided in the middle of the front cover for blowing air toward the front end of the return air channel, and the center of the fan 3 is connected to the rotating shaft of the rotor.

[0017] The utility model generator has a fully enclosed structure, has no air inlet or outlet, and has a protection level of IP44 or above. It adopts an internal air circulation method to dissipate heat. The heat generated by the stator and the rotor can be dissipated through heat conduction of the casing. The air in the middle of the generator flows from back to front to take away the heat of the stator and the rotation. The air taking away the heat flows back to the rear end of the engine through the return air channel on the inner side of the casing, and transfers the heat to the casing and dissipates it to the outside during the process of flowing through the return air channel.

[0018] In this embodiment, the inner wall of the front cover 7 is connected to a partition 10 which is separated between the fan and the return air channel. There are gaps between the partition and the fan and between the partition and the front end of the return air channel. There is also a gap between the partition and the rotating shaft of the rotor. The partition 11 is provided with a plurality of jet holes 11 with an inlet end facing the fan and an outlet end facing the front end of the return air channel. The diameter of the return air channel 9 gradually decreases from the two ends to the middle. The front side of the partition is a compartment cavity, and the back side is a mixing chamber. The fan is located in the compartment cavity. The fan rotates to form high-pressure gas. Part of the air is ejected from the compartment cavity into the return air duct through the jet hole, and the other part of the air enters the return air duct from the mixing chamber. The high-pressure gas forms an ejector effect through the jet hole and the return air duct, which accelerates the air flow inside the generator (the inner surface of the stator and the outer surface of the rotor) and brings its heat to the return air duct. The return air duct is connected to the casing, and the heat of the air is conducted to the casing through the return air duct and dissipated to the outside through heat radiation, reducing the heat of the wind in the return air duct. The wind enters the generator (the inner surface of the stator and the outer surface of the rotor) from the outlet of the return air duct, thereby cooling the copper wire and iron core.

[0019] Since the casing is provided with a return air channel using the ejector principle, driven by the fan, the air flows faster inside the engine, thereby quickly taking away the heat generated by the rotor and stator when they are working, and the heat is transferred to the casing through the return air channel, and the casing is transferred to the surrounding environment through heat conduction, thereby solving the problem of poor heat dissipation of the rotor of the closed generator and improving the heat dissipation effect of the whole machine. The utility model is cleverly designed, simple and novel in structure, can quickly and effectively dissipate heat from the motor, thereby improving motor performance, saving major costs such as iron cores, and at the same time increasing the life of the motor.

[0020] like Figure 3 As shown in the figure, the ejector works as follows: After the high-pressure gas passes through the nozzle, due to adiabatic expansion, the pressure energy in the high-pressure moving fluid is converted into kinetic energy, causing the flow rate to increase but the pressure to drop. At this time, due to the pressure drop of the moving fluid, it will form a low-pressure area in the mixing chamber. Due to the existence of the low-pressure area, the mixing chamber will inhale the fluid and mix the inhaled fluid with the moving fluid in the mixing chamber; the mixed fluid then enters the venturi-shaped diffuser, where they are fully mixed and the kinetic energy is converted back into pressure energy; the final result will be a mixed fluid with a pressure higher than the low-pressure inhaled fluid but lower than the high-pressure moving fluid.

[0021] In this embodiment, the outer peripheral wall of the stator 5 is attached to the inner wall of the casing. At the same time, the stator core is in close contact with the casing, and the heat of the stator is directly transferred to the casing through heat conduction and dissipated to the surrounding environment through heat radiation.

[0022] In this embodiment, heat dissipation ribs 12 are distributed on the outer periphery of the housing to increase the heat dissipation area of ​​the housing and improve the heat dissipation effect.

[0023] Unless otherwise stated, any technical solution disclosed in the above utility model, if it discloses a numerical range, then the disclosed numerical range is a preferred numerical range. Any technician in the field should understand that the preferred numerical range is only a numerical value with a more obvious technical effect or representative value among many feasible numerical values. Since there are too many numerical values ​​to be exhaustive, the utility model discloses only some numerical values ​​to illustrate the technical solution of the utility model, and the numerical values ​​listed above should not constitute a limitation on the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0024] If the present invention discloses or involves components or structures that are fixedly connected to each other, then, unless otherwise stated, the fixed connection can be understood as: a detachable fixed connection (for example, connection using bolts or screws), and can also be understood as: a non-detachable fixed connection (for example, riveting, welding). Of course, the mutual fixed connection can also be replaced by an integrated structure (for example, manufactured by one-piece molding using a casting process) (except when it is obviously impossible to use an one-piece molding process).
