[0027] Please refer to Figures 1-7 , the present utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0028] A bearing housing with good heat dissipation performance includes a base 1 and an upper cover 2. When the base 1 and the upper cover 2 are fixed together, a cavity is formed inside. End caps 8 are provided at both ends of the base 1 and the upper cover 2. The end caps 8 are semi-circular rings. The corresponding end caps 8 of the base 1 and the upper cover 2 are joined together to form a complete ring. A bearing 6 is jointly installed between two corresponding end caps 8. A shaft 4 is installed inside the bearing 6. An impeller 5 is installed on the shaft 4. The impeller 5 is arranged inside the cavity of the base 1 and the upper cover 2. Air holes are provided on the end caps 8. One side end cap 8 is the air inlet side, and the other side end cap 8 is the air outlet side. When the shaft 4 operates, the impeller 5 rotates synchronously, thereby driving air to enter the cavity from the air inlet side and then be discharged from the air outlet side on the other side, promoting the heat dissipation inside the bearing housing and improving the heat dissipation effect.
[0029] A second cooling cavity 81 is provided on the inner wall of the end cap 8. The second cooling cavity 81 is in the shape of a semi-circular ring coaxial with the end cap 8. The second cooling cavity 81 is arranged in contact with the outer wall of the bearing 6. A number of external air holes 82 are provided on the side of the end cap 8 facing away from the impeller 5. A number of internal air holes 83 are provided on the side of the end cap 8 facing the impeller 5. One end of the external air hole 82 is connected to the external environment, and the other end of the external air hole 82 is communicated with the second cooling cavity 81. One end of the internal air hole 83 is communicated with the second cooling cavity 81, and the other end of the internal air hole 82 points to the inside of the base 1. The number of external air holes 82 and the number of internal air holes 83 are arranged in an alternating manner;
[0030] Since the hole positions of the external air holes 82 and the internal air holes 83 do not correspond to each other, the air on the air inlet side is forced to mix after entering the second cooling cavity 81 and then discharged from the second cooling cavity 81 through the internal air holes 83, increasing the contact amount of the air with the outer surface of the bearing 6, thereby ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the outer ring of the bearing 6.
[0031] A reinforcing sleeve 3 is provided between the inner wall of the bearing 6 and the shaft 4. The reinforcing sleeve 3 is in interference fit with both the shaft 4 and the inner ring of the bearing 6. A first cooling cavity 31 is provided on the outer ring of the reinforcing sleeve 3. The first cooling cavity 31 is in contact with the inner ring of the bearing 6. A number of external air holes 32 are provided on the side of the first cooling cavity 31 facing away from the impeller 5. A number of internal air holes 33 are provided on the side of the first cooling cavity 31 facing the impeller 5. The number of external air holes 32 and the number of internal air holes 33 are arranged in an alternating manner, thereby increasing the contact amount of the air with the inner ring of the bearing 6 and ensuring the heat dissipation effect of the inner ring of the bearing 6. At the same time, the reinforcing sleeve 3 and the shaft 4 are of a split design, ensuring that the strength of the shaft 4 itself is not affected.
[0032] The external air holes II 82 and the internal air holes II 83 are both arranged in an inclined direction. The end of the external air holes II 82 connected to the cooling chamber II 81 points to the outer wall of the bearing 6, and when air flows through, it is blown towards the bearing 6, improving the heat dissipation effect; A number of heat-conducting fins 7 are provided on the inner walls of the base 1 and the upper cover 2. The heat-conducting fins 7 extend to the outside of the base 1 and the upper cover 2. The end of the internal air holes II 83 facing away from the cooling chamber II 81 points to the heat-conducting fins 7, so that most of the air entering the cavity exchanges heat with the heat-conducting fins 7, thereby reducing the temperature of the gas after heat exchange on one side and improving the heat dissipation effect of the bearing 6 on the subsequent outlet side;
[0033] The external air holes I 32 and the internal air holes I 33 are both arranged along an inclined direction. The end of the external air holes I 32 connected to the cooling chamber I 31 points to the inner ring of the bearing 6, and the end of the internal air holes I 33 facing away from the cooling chamber I 31 points to the heat-conducting fins 7. Similarly, the arrangement of the external air holes I 32 and the internal air holes I 33 improves the heat dissipation effect of the inner ring of the bearing 6.
[0034] Flared mouths are provided at the ends of the external air holes I 32 and the internal air holes I 33 and the external air holes II 82 and the internal air holes II 83 facing the inner side of the base 1;
[0035] The flared mouth on the air inlet side is located at the outlet of the air hole, and the air flow is dispersed at the flared mouth, thereby strengthening the mixed flow and improving the heat exchange efficiency;
[0036] The flared mouth on the air outlet side is located at the inlet of the air hole, and the air flow enters the air hole through the flared mouth, making it more convenient for the gas to be discharged.
[0037] Specifically, an impeller 5 is installed on the shaft 4. The impeller 5 is arranged in the cavity formed by the base 1 and the upper cover 2. Air holes are provided on both end covers 8. When the shaft 4 is running, air is drawn from one side and sent to the other side through the impeller 5, thereby realizing the circulation of air inside the bearing housing, promoting heat exchange by strengthening convection, and improving the heat dissipation performance;
[0038] The inner and outer rings of the bearing 6 are respectively fixed by the reinforcing sleeve 3 and the end cover 8. Cooling chambers are provided on the sides of the reinforcing sleeve 3 and the end cover 8 connected to the bearing 6. A number of external air holes and internal air holes are respectively provided on both sides of the cooling chamber. The external air holes and the internal air holes are arranged alternately, so that when air flows through, it cannot directly pass through the external air holes and the internal air holes and needs to have a mixed flow in the cooling chamber, thereby ensuring the contact between the air flow and the surface of the bearing 6 and ensuring the heat dissipation effect;
[0039] Heat dissipation fins 7 are provided inside the base 1 and the upper cover 2. The heat dissipation fins 7 extend to the outside of the base 1 and the upper cover 2. After the air flow exchanges heat with one side bearing 6, the temperature of the air flow rises. The air flow with temperature rise enters the inside of the bearing housing, exchanges heat with the heat dissipation fins 7, reduces the temperature of the air flow, and then is discharged from the other side and exchanges heat with the corresponding bearing 6, thereby improving the cooling effect of the air flow on the bearing 6 on the air outlet side.
