The bearing sleeve 2 is arranged in the middle of the back of the cover body 1. A stepped hole 4 extending to the front of the cover body 1 is arranged in the bearing sleeve 2, and a bearing can be installed to support the rotation of the motor rotating shaft.

[0021] A positioning sleeve 6 concentric with the bearing sleeve 2 and located outside the bearing sleeve 2 is arranged on the back of the cover body 1. The cover body 1 can be installed on the housing of the motor, and positioning is carried out through the cooperation of the positioning sleeve 6 and the inner wall of the housing. In this embodiment, an O-ring installation groove 5 is concavely arranged on the outer circle of the positioning sleeve 6, and an O-ring can be installed to improve the airtightness of the connection.

[0022] In this embodiment, the positioning sleeve 6, the cover body 1 and the bearing sleeve 2 adopt an integrated aluminum alloy structure, which is formed by casting aluminum. It is convenient to process, has high strength and good heat conduction effect. Several reinforcing ribs 3 are arranged between the positioning sleeve 6 and the bearing sleeve 2 on the back of the cover body 1 to ensure the structural stability of the positioning sleeve 6 and the bearing sleeve 2, which is beneficial to reducing the wall thickness of the positioning sleeve 6 and the bearing sleeve 2 and realizing the overall light weight.
