[0041] The utility model proposes an oil guide pipe 1 which can be applied to a reducer of an electric drive system. The two ends of the oil guide pipe 1 are respectively connected to an oil delivery channel 21b on a reducer housing 21 and a motor rotor shaft 31 to deliver cooling oil to the inner cavity of the motor rotor shaft 31.

[0042] In the embodiment of the present utility model, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the oil guide pipe 1 includes an oil guide pipe body 11 and a first sealing convex ring 12, wherein the oil guide pipe body 11 is provided with an oil guide cavity 11a and an oil outlet hole 11b communicating with the oil guide cavity 11a; an oil inlet hole 11c is provided on the peripheral wall of the oil guide pipe body 11, and the oil inlet hole 11c is communicated with the oil guide cavity 11a; the first sealing convex ring 12 is provided at one end of the oil guide pipe body 11 away from the oil outlet hole 11b; the oil inlet hole 11c is located between the first sealing convex ring 12 and the oil outlet hole 11b; the first sealing convex ring 12 is used to seal with the mounting hole 21a opened on the housing 21 of the reducer.

[0043] In this embodiment, a first sealing convex ring 12 is provided on the oil guide pipe body 11. When the oil guide pipe 1 is installed on the reducer, the oil guide pipe 1 is inserted from the mounting hole 21a of the reducer housing 21, and the sealing is achieved by the sealing cooperation between the first sealing convex ring 12 and the mounting hole 21a. The assembly is simple. The utility model simplifies the oil guide structure, reduces the cost, and reduces the assembly process.

[0044] After the oil guide pipe 1 is inserted from the mounting hole 21 a , the oil inlet hole 11 c of the oil guide pipe 1 is communicated with the oil outlet of the oil delivery channel 21 b on the housing 21 .

[0045] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer diameter of the first sealing protrusion 12 is larger than the outer diameter of the oil guide pipe body 11. This facilitates the installation of the oil guide pipe 1 and plays a sealing and isolating role to prevent oil leakage.

[0046] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first sealing convex ring 12 includes a first annular boss 121 and a first sealing member 122. The first annular boss 121 is connected to the oil guide tube body 11. The first annular boss 121 is provided with a first sealing groove along the circumferential direction. The first sealing member 122 is sleeved on the first annular boss 121 and is located in the first sealing groove.

[0047] like Figure 3 As shown, during the installation of the oil guide pipe 1, the first annular boss 121 can play a positioning role. When installed in place, the first annular boss 121 cannot continue to penetrate into the reducer input shaft 22 due to the obstruction of the housing 21. At the same time, the first annular boss 121 can prevent the coolant to be introduced into the oil guide pipe 1 from leaking, and the provision of the first sealing member 122 can further play a sealing role and improve the sealing performance.

[0048] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the first sealing convex ring 12 further includes a stopper 123 , which is disposed at one end of the first annular boss 121 away from the oil guide pipe body 11 , and the outer diameter of the stopper 123 is greater than that of the first annular boss 121 .

[0050] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the oil guide pipe 1 further includes a second sealing convex ring 13 , the first sealing convex ring 12 and the second sealing convex ring 13 are arranged at an interval, and the oil inlet hole 11 c is located between the first sealing convex ring 12 and the second sealing convex ring 13 .

[0051] It can be understood that by providing the second sealing convex ring 13, it is possible to prevent the cooling oil from leaking in a direction away from the first sealing convex ring 12. By arranging the second sealing convex ring 13 and the first sealing convex ring 12 to be spaced apart, and the oil inlet hole 11c to be provided between the second sealing convex ring 13 and the first sealing convex ring 12, an oil delivery buffer chamber 11d can be formed between the second sealing convex ring 13 and the first sealing convex ring 12. After the cooling oil in the oil delivery channel 21b is delivered to the oil delivery buffer chamber 11d, it enters the oil guide chamber 11a from the oil inlet hole 11c.

[0052] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the second sealing convex ring 13 includes a second annular boss 131 and a second sealing member 132. The second annular boss 131 is sleeved on the oil guide tube body 11. The second annular boss 131 is provided with a second sealing groove along the circumferential direction. The second sealing member 132 is sleeved on the second annular boss 131 and is located in the second sealing groove.

[0053] It can be understood that the second annular boss 131 can prevent the coolant to be introduced into the oil guide pipe 1 from leaking, and the second sealing member 132 can further play a sealing role and improve the sealing performance.

[0054] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the outer wall surface of the oil guide pipe body 11 is provided with reinforcing ribs 14. It can be understood that by providing the reinforcing ribs 14, the strength of the oil guide pipe 1 can be enhanced and the service life can be improved.

[0055] In one embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the oil guide tube body 11 includes an integrally connected plug-in section 111 and an assembly section 112, the plug-in section 111 is located at one end of the assembly section 112 away from the first sealing convex ring 12, and a step surface is formed at the connection between the outer wall of the plug-in section 111 and the outer wall of the oil guide tube body 11; the oil outlet hole 11b is located on the side of the plug-in section 111 away from the assembly section 112.

[0056] like Figure 3As shown, the plug-in section 111 is inserted into the second installation cavity 31a of the motor rotor shaft 31, so that the inner cavity of the motor rotor shaft 31 is connected with the oil guide cavity 11a, so as to achieve the purpose of delivering cooling oil to the inner cavity of the motor rotor shaft 31 for cooling. The connection between the outer wall of the plug-in section 111 and the outer wall of the oil guide tube body 11 forms a step surface, which can play a role in positioning and limiting.

[0059] Compared with the prior art, this embodiment directly opens the oil delivery channel in the housing, eliminates the rear cover plate and the sealing gasket as well as the multiple bolts used to assemble the rear cover plate, reduces the cost, and has no large sealing surface, reducing the risk of oil leakage. Since the rear cover plate is eliminated, a mounting hole can be directly opened in the housing, and the oil guide pipe is inserted through the mounting hole. In this embodiment, the housing 21 is formed by integral casting, which can improve the rigidity, which is beneficial to the product reliability and electric drive performance.

[0060] The utility model also proposes an electric drive system, such as Figure 3 As shown, the electric drive system includes a motor rotor and the reducer as described above.
