Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of motors, and particularly relates to a heat dissipation structure of a permanent magnet motor. Background Art

[0002] The stator used in an outer rotor motor usually includes a sleeve seat and a stator assembly. The stator assembly includes a stator core formed by laminating a plurality of silicon steel sheets, an end insulation installed on the end face of the stator core, and a coil winding wound on the end insulation. The stator assembly is sleeved outside the sleeve seat. Since the heat generated inside the motor during operation dissipates naturally relatively slowly, the operation of the motor becomes unreliable, and at the same time, the service life of the motor is shortened.

[0003] In order to solve the heat dissipation problem, a Chinese patent (Publication No.: CN209233661U) provides an outer rotor motor. The motor includes a rotating shaft, a stator assembly, an outer rotor, and a sleeve seat. A flange extends outwards from the opening of the casing sleeve. A wind wheel is installed at the bottom of the flange. A plurality of wind blades are circumferentially arranged upwards on the outer ring of the wind wheel. An inner ring of the wind wheel is arranged inside the outer ring of the wind wheel. The outer ring of the wind wheel is connected to the inner ring of the wind wheel. The gap between the outer ring of the wind wheel and the inner ring of the wind wheel forms an air inlet. A plurality of raised heat dissipation fins are provided on the bottom plate at the position below the wind wheel. An air duct is formed between two adjacent heat dissipation fins. The outer ring of the wind wheel covers the top of the air duct. The outer ring of the wind wheel, the flange, and the plurality of wind blades form a centrifugal fan. When the outer rotor rotates, it drives the wind wheel to rotate. The air flow enters the air duct radially, and then flows into the gap. Under the action of the plurality of wind blades, it is radially thrown outwards.

[0004] Although this heat dissipation structure improves the heat dissipation effect, since the top is closed and the inside of the motor is a semi-closed structure, and the stator is in the central area inside, the heat generated by the winding is difficult to dissipate or discharge, and the heat dissipation effect inside the motor is poor. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] Aiming at the above defects, the technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide a heat dissipation structure of a permanent magnet motor, which can improve the heat dissipation effect inside the motor.

[0006] The above technical object of the utility model is achieved by the following technical solutions:

[0007] A heat dissipation structure of a permanent magnet motor, comprising a stator assembly and a rotor assembly. The stator assembly includes an end cover and a stator core, and the stator core is fixedly connected to the end cover. The rotor assembly includes an annular first side plate and a plurality of magnetic steels evenly distributed along the circumferential direction inside the first side plate. A plurality of air inlet holes are formed in the end cover, and an annular second side plate is connected to the outer edge of the end cover. The first side plate is located inside the second side plate, and the stator core is installed within the range enclosed by the magnetic steels. One end of the first side plate away from the end cover extends inward to form an annular connecting portion. A circular first centrifugal fan is fixedly connected to one side of the connecting portion close to the end cover. A plurality of first air outlet holes corresponding to the first centrifugal fan are formed in the first side plate along the circumferential direction. A plurality of second air outlet holes corresponding to the first air outlet holes are formed in the second side plate.

[0008] By adopting the above scheme, during use, the rotor assembly rotates, and the first side plate in the rotor assembly drives the connecting portion and the first centrifugal fan to rotate. Under the action of the first centrifugal fan, cooling air is forced to enter the inner sides of the stator assembly and the rotor assembly through the air inlet holes of the end cover. The cooling air passes through the gaps between the magnetic steels and the stator core, taking away the heat on the surfaces of the magnetic steels and the stator core. Moreover, part of the cooling air takes away the heat of the copper wire from the slot gaps of the stator core. The cooling air carrying the exchanged heat is discharged outside the second side plate after passing through the first air outlet holes and the second air outlet holes. The heat dissipation effect inside the motor is effectively improved, thereby ensuring the working stability and service life of the motor.

[0009] The present utility model is further arranged such that an annular second centrifugal fan is fixedly connected to the outer side of the first side plate, and the second centrifugal fan corresponds to the first air outlet holes. During use, the air flow velocity inside the motor is enhanced by the second centrifugal fan, thereby improving the cooling effect inside the motor.

[0010] The present utility model is further arranged such that the first side plate has a diameter-expanded section and a diameter-reduced section along its axial direction, and the first air outlet holes are located within the range of the diameter-reduced section. Since the first air outlet holes are located within the range of the diameter-reduced section, the cooling air is compressed when entering the diameter-reduced section from the diameter-expanded section, thereby increasing the flow velocity of the cooling air and improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0011] The present utility model is further arranged such that a step is formed at the junction of the diameter-expanded section and the diameter-reduced section, and the second centrifugal fan is fixed at the step. The second centrifugal fan is located between the diameter-reduced section of the first side plate and the second side plate. Since the second centrifugal fan is fixed at the step, while increasing the air flow velocity inside the motor, it can also ensure that the volume of the motor along the radial direction does not increase. Moreover, the step provides an installation position for the second centrifugal fan, making it more convenient for the second centrifugal fan to be fixedly connected to the first side plate, and the overall structure is more reasonable.

[0012] The present utility model is further configured such that a flange is connected to the free end of the second side plate. Through the flange at the free end of the second side plate, the stator assembly can be conveniently connected to the corresponding motor housing, facilitating fixation.

[0013] The present utility model is further configured such that two rows of air inlet holes are provided along the radial direction of the end cover. The air intake volume is increased through the two rows of air inlets, which is beneficial for heat dissipation.

[0014] The present utility model is further configured such that a retaining ring is provided inside the first side plate, and mounting holes corresponding to a plurality of the magnetic steels are formed in the retaining ring, and the magnetic steels are fixed in the corresponding mounting holes. The magnetic steels can be fixed more stably through the retaining ring.

[0015] The present utility model is further configured such that the stator assembly further includes a mounting seat and an annular fixing frame. The stator core is fixed outside the fixing frame. A through hole is formed in the middle of the end cover. The mounting seat is partially installed in the through hole. The mounting seat is located between the end cover and the fixing frame. The end cover, the mounting seat, and the fixing frame are fixed together by bolts. The connection by bolts between the end cover, the mounting seat, and the fixing frame makes the assembly of each part more convenient. In addition, since the fixing frame is provided between the end cover and the fixing frame, a relatively large gap is formed between the stator core and the end cover, thus facilitating the circulation of the cooling air inside the motor.

[0016] The present utility model is further configured such that the fixing frame includes an inner ring and an outer ring. The diameter of the outer ring is larger than that of the inner ring. The inner diameter of the outer ring is larger than the outer diameter of the mounting seat. The inner ring and the outer ring are connected by a plurality of connecting columns. The area enclosed by the inner ring, the outer ring, and the adjacent connecting columns can facilitate the passage of the cooling air, facilitating the cooling air to enter the inner side of the stator assembly and enhancing the internal heat dissipation effect.

[0017] The present utility model is further configured such that the outer ring, the inner ring, and the connecting columns are integrally formed. Since the outer ring, the inner ring, and the connecting columns are integrally formed, the overall stability is better.

[0018] In summary, the heat dissipation structure of a permanent magnet motor provided by the present utility model has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0019] 1. By introducing the cooling air into the motor and discharging it from the second air outlet, the heat dissipation effect inside the motor is greatly improved.

[0020] 2. By providing the first centrifugal fan and the second centrifugal fan on the inner and outer sides of the rotor assembly, the flow velocity of the cooling air is increased, and the cooling effect is improved. Description of the Drawings
