Description

Technical Field

[0002] As new energy vehicles have higher and higher demands on motor power density and motor efficiency, new energy vehicle drive motors are required to have higher peak torque and motor efficiency in a smaller volume. At present, there are two main cooling systems for new energy vehicle drive motors: oil cooling and water cooling. Oil cooling has better cooling performance than water cooling systems, so oil cooling is widely used in high power density motor systems. The general motor oil cooling system is mainly composed of oil rings, oil pipes, oil channels and other parts. The cooling of the motor stator end is mainly achieved by oil rings or oil pipes.

[0003] The oil ring in the prior art is generally installed on the motor housing, and the cooling oil can be directly sprayed onto the outer layer of the stator winding end, which has a good cooling effect on the outer side of the stator winding. However, for the inner and middle layer windings, it is often difficult for the cooling oil to contact due to the small winding gap, and the cooling effect is poor, resulting in a high temperature on the inside of the winding. In addition, the oil ring, as a unique part of the oil-cooled motor, increases the complexity of the system, and the installation and fixation of the oil ring is relatively difficult.
