[0042] The fan 1000 and the air conditioner according to an embodiment of the application will be described below with reference to the drawings.
[0043] As Figures 1-4 shown, the fan 1000 according to an embodiment of the present application includes: an electric motor 100 and a wind wheel 200.
[0044] The motor 100 includes a rotor assembly 10 and a stator assembly 20. The stator assembly 20 includes a stator 22 and a support shaft 23. An accommodation cavity 21 is formed in the stator 22. The support shaft 23 passes through the accommodation cavity 21 and is fixed to the stator 22. The rotor assembly 10 is disposed in the accommodation cavity 21 and sleeved outside the support shaft 23. The rotor assembly 10 includes a rotor 11 and a bearing 12 embedded in the rotor 11. The rotor 11 is rotatably supported on the support shaft 23 through the bearing 12. A wind wheel 200 is disposed at one axial end of the rotor 11, and the wind wheel 200 is drivingly connected to the rotor 11.
[0045] It can be understood that the support shaft 23 is fixed to the stator 22. The support shaft 23 can define the position of the rotor assembly 10 in the accommodation cavity 21. At the same time, the support shaft 23 can define the rotation axis of the rotor assembly 10, so that the rotor assembly 10 can rotate in the accommodation cavity 21 with a fixed rotation axis. The wind wheel 200 is connected to the rotor 11, so that the wind wheel 200 can rotate coaxially with the rotor 11, thereby realizing the driving of the wind wheel 200 to rotate by the motor 100.
[0046] It should be noted that for the convenience of description, the extending direction of the rotation axis of the rotor assembly 10 is taken as the axial direction. The wind wheel 200 rotates coaxially with the rotor assembly 10, that is, the axial direction is the axis direction of the rotor assembly 10 and the wind wheel 200.
[0047] Thus, by embedding the bearing 12 in the rotor 11, the axial dimension of the motor 100 can be reduced. The wind wheel 200 is directly connected to the rotor 11 of the motor 100, which can reduce the axial clearance between the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200, that is, reduce the axial clearance between the motor 100 and the wind wheel 200, thereby reducing the axial dimension of the entire fan 1000 and being beneficial to the miniaturization of the fan 1000.
[0048] In this application, the fixing method of the support shaft 23 to the stator 22 is not limited. For example, the support shaft 23 is integrally formed with the stator 22 by injection molding. Another example is that the support shaft 23 is connected to the stator 22 by welding.
[0049] In some embodiments, retaining rings are arranged on both axial sides of the bearing 12. The retaining rings are clamped between the bearing 12 and the rotor 11, which can reduce or avoid the axial movement of the bearing 12 when it is embedded in the rotor 11, and improve the stability of the rotor 11 being rotatably supported on the support shaft 23 through the bearing 12 and rotating.
[0050] In some embodiments, as Figure 1 、 Figure 2 shown, the end face of the wind wheel 200 facing the motor 100 is attached to the end face of the rotor 11 facing the wind wheel 200.
[0051] Therefore, the rotor 11 can stop against the wind wheel 200 at different positions outside the rotation axis, thereby reducing or avoiding the shaking of the wind wheel 200 along the axis relative to the rotor 11 and improving the stability of the rotor 11 driving the wind wheel 200 to rotate.
[0052] At the same time, the relative position of the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200 along the axial direction can be limited, reducing or avoiding the axial movement of the wind wheel 200 relative to the rotor 11, improving the stability of the connection between the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200, and improving the stability of the motor 100 driving the wind wheel 200 to rotate. In addition, it is easy to locate the relative position of the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200 along the axial direction, simplifying the connection operation between the wind wheel 200 and the rotor 11.
[0053] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the wind wheel 200 is formed with a receiving groove 210 that is recessed in a direction away from the motor 100 , and at least a portion of the motor 100 is embedded in the receiving groove 210 .
[0054] It can be understood that the receiving groove 210 is recessed in a direction away from the motor 100 , that is, the receiving groove 210 is recessed in the axial direction away from the motor 100 .
[0055] Thus, the motor 100 can be partially embedded in the receiving groove 210 along the axial direction, which can reduce the overall axial size of the fan 1000. At the same time, the receiving groove 210 can limit the connection position of the motor 100 to the wind wheel 200, simplify the connection operation between the wind wheel 200 and the motor 100, reduce or avoid installation errors between the motor 100 and the wind wheel 200, and play a fool-proof role.
[0056] Furthermore, at least part of the stator 22 is embedded in the receiving groove 210, so that the receiving groove 210 can guide the connection position of the motor 100 on the wind wheel 200, which is convenient for the connection operation between the motor 100 and the wind wheel 200. The stator 22 is matched with the clearance of the peripheral wall surface of the receiving groove 210. It can be understood that the wind wheel 200 rotates synchronously with the rotor 11, and the rotor 11 rotates relative to the stator 22, that is, the wind wheel 200 rotates relative to the stator 22.
[0057] Therefore, there is a gap between the stator 22 and the wind wheel 200, which can reduce or avoid the stator 22 from blocking the rotation of the wind wheel 200, and maintain the stability of the wind wheel 200 relative to the stator 22. In addition, when the rotor 11 is separated from the wind wheel 200, the stator 22 can limit the direction of the wind wheel 200 to escape from the motor 100, so that the wind wheel 200 can be separated from the motor 100 in the axial direction, that is, the direction of the wind wheel 200 escaping from the motor 100 is controllable, thereby improving safety.
[0058] In some embodiments, Figures 6-8As shown, the side of the rotor 11 facing the wind wheel 200 has a driving portion 111, and the driving portion 111 is eccentrically arranged relative to the support shaft 23. The rotor 11 is fixedly connected to the wind wheel 200 through the driving portion 111 to limit the axial position of the rotor 11 relative to the wind wheel 200, and the rotor 11 can apply a driving force tangential to the axis of rotation to the wind wheel 200 through the driving portion 111.
[0059] It can be understood that the driving part 111 is fixedly connected to the wind wheel 200, that is, the rotor 11 applies a force to the wind wheel 200 at the driving part 111 to drive the wind wheel 200 to rotate. The driving part 111 is eccentrically arranged relative to the support shaft 23, so that the driving part 111 and the rotation axis of the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200 are staggered, and the distance between the driving part 111 and the rotation axis is the force arm of the wind wheel 200 subjected to the driving force from the rotor 11.
[0060] In this way, the lever arm of the driving force of the rotor 11 driving the wind wheel 200 to rotate can be increased, thereby reducing the driving force required for the rotor 11 to drive the wind wheel 200 to rotate, that is, the output torque required for the motor 100 to drive the wind wheel 200 to rotate can be reduced, while improving the stability of the motor 100 driving the wind wheel 200 to rotate.
[0061] Furthermore, if Figures 6-8 and Figure 11 As shown, the driving parts 111 are multiple and spaced around the support shaft 23. Thus, the rotor 11 is fixedly connected to the wind wheel 200 at multiple positions around the rotation axis, which can reduce or avoid the axial shaking of the wind wheel 200 relative to the rotor 11.
[0062] At the same time, the rotor 11 can apply driving force to the wind wheel 200 to rotate at multiple positions around the rotation axis, so that the rotor 11 can disperse the driving force on the wind wheel 200 at multiple driving parts 111 around the rotation axis, thereby improving the stability of the rotor 11 driving the wind wheel 200 to rotate.
[0063] In some embodiments, Figure 6 As shown, the driving part 111 is formed as a connecting hole, and the rotor 11 is fixedly connected to the wind wheel 200 through a fastener penetrating through the wind wheel 200 and the connecting hole. Figure 7 As shown, the driving part 111 is formed as a hot melt column, and the wind wheel 200 has a mounting hole corresponding to the hot melt column, the hot melt column is inserted into the mounting hole, and the rotor 11 is fixedly connected to the wind wheel 200 through the hot melt of the hot melt column. Therefore, the rotor 11 can be fixedly connected with the wind wheel 200 through the driving part 111, reducing or avoiding the rotation of the rotor 11 relative to the wind wheel 200 around the rotation axis, so as to maintain the synchronous rotation of the wind wheel 200 and the rotor 11, and improve the stability of the rotor 11 driving the wind wheel 200 to rotate.
[0064] In some embodiments,Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown in Figure 10 , one side of the rotor 11 facing the wind wheel 200 has a first positioning structure 112, and the first positioning structure 112 is eccentrically arranged relative to the support shaft 23. One side of the wind wheel 200 facing the rotor 11 has a second positioning structure 220, and the first positioning structure 112 and the second positioning structure 220 are inserted and matched along the axial direction of the support shaft 23.
[0065] Thus, the first positioning structure 112 and the second positioning structure 220 are inserted and matched at a position far from the rotation axes of the wind wheel 200 and the rotor 11, which can limit the relative positions of the wind wheel 200 and the rotor 11 in the tangential direction of the rotation axis to ensure the synchronous rotation of the wind wheel 200 with the rotor 11. At the same time, the insertion and matching of the first positioning structure 112 and the second positioning structure 220 can guide the connection position of the rotor 11 on the wind wheel 200, facilitating the connection of the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200 at the correct position, and the installation method is relatively simple, which can reduce the operation difficulty of installing the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200.
[0066] Preferably, the first positioning structure 112 abuts against the second positioning structure 220 along the tangential direction of the rotation axis, so that the rotor 11 can apply a driving force in the tangential direction of the rotation axis to the second positioning structure 220 through the first positioning structure 112 to drive the wind wheel 200 to rotate synchronously with the rotor 11.
[0067] Furthermore, there are multiple first positioning structures 112 spaced around the support shaft 23. Correspondingly, there are multiple second positioning structures 220 on the side of the wind wheel 200 facing the rotor 11, which are spaced around the support shaft 23.
[0068] Thus, the first positioning structure 112 and the second positioning structure 220 can be inserted and matched at different positions around the rotation axes of the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200, thereby limiting the relative positions between the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200 at multiple positions around the rotation axis, improving the stability of the relative positions of the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200 around the rotation axis, and improving the stability of the synchronous rotation of the wind wheel 200 with the rotor 11.
[0069] In some embodiments, as Figures 9-11 shown, one of the first positioning structure 112 and the second positioning structure 220 is a groove, and the other is a protrusion. Thus, the protrusion can be axially inserted into the groove to achieve the insertion and matching of the first positioning structure 112 and the second positioning mechanism.
[0070] It should be noted that in the Figures 9-11 example, the first positioning structure 112 is a groove and the second positioning structure 220 is a protrusion. In other embodiments, it can also be that the first positioning structure 112 is a protrusion and the second positioning structure 220 is a groove.
[0071] Further, as shown in Figure 6 , Figure 7 , the rotor 11 is formed with a shaft hole 113 passing through the support shaft 23. The rotor 11 includes a plurality of rib plates 114 arranged at intervals around the shaft hole 113. The rib plates 114 extend radially along the shaft hole 113, and grooves are formed between two adjacent rib plates 114.
[0072] It can be understood that a plurality of grooves are formed between the plurality of rib plates 114, and the plurality of rib plates 114 are arranged at intervals around the shaft hole 113, that is, the plurality of grooves are arranged at intervals around the shaft hole 113. That is to say, the first positioning structure 112 is a groove. Correspondingly, the second positioning structure 220 on the wind wheel 200 is a plurality of protrusions.
[0073] Thus, the rib plates 114 can provide radial support for the shaft hole 113 to improve the stability of the shaft hole 113, that is, to improve the stability of the rotor 11 sleeved on the support shaft 23 through the shaft hole 113 and rotating. At the same time, the space between the rib plates 114 can be used to form grooves, so that the protrusions on the wind wheel 200 can be inserted into the grooves, thereby improving the space utilization rate of the rotor 11 without setting additional space in the axial direction of the rotor 11 to form grooves, which is beneficial to reducing the axial dimension of the rotor 11.
[0074] Further, a driving portion 111 is formed at one end of the rib plate 114 away from the shaft hole 113 in the radial direction of the shaft hole 113. The rotor 11 is fixedly connected to the wind wheel 200 through the driving portion 111, and an avoidance recess 230 for avoiding the driving portion 111 is formed on the protrusion.
[0075] Thus, the rib plates 114 can provide support for the shaft hole 113 and form grooves around the shaft hole 113. At the same time, the rib plates 114 can also form the driving portion 111 for the fixed connection between the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200, so that the rib plates 114 can perform multiple functions with one component, thereby simplifying the structure of the rotor 11 and improving the space utilization rate of the rotor 11, which is beneficial to reducing the axial dimension of the rotor 11.
[0076] At the same time, when the driving portion 111 is fixedly connected to the wind wheel 200 in the avoidance recess 230, the protrusions are simultaneously located in the grooves. Among them, the driving portion 111 can limit the axial position of the rotor 11 relative to the wind wheel 200 to reduce or avoid the wind wheel 200 disengaging from the motor 100 axially, and the driving portion 111 can also limit the position of the rotor 11 relative to the wind wheel 200 tangentially along the rotation axis. And through the insertion and matching of the protrusions and the grooves, the position of the rotor 11 relative to the wind wheel 200 tangentially along the rotation axis is further limited, improving the stability of the synchronous rotation of the wind wheel 200 with the rotor 11.
[0077] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 2 ,Figure 4 As shown, the stator 22 is formed in the form of a housing that opens towards the direction of the wind wheel 200, and includes an annular portion 221 and an end portion 222. The end portion 222 is connected to the side of the annular portion 221 that is away from the wind wheel 200. One end of the support shaft 23 that is away from the wind wheel 200 is fixed to the end portion 222, making the setting position of the support shaft 23 stable, that is, the rotation axis is stable when the rotor 11 is sleeved on the support shaft 23. One end of the support shaft 23 that is close to the wind wheel 200 is suspended, so that the support shaft 23 can be axially spaced apart from the wind wheel 200 to avoid the support shaft 23 affecting the rotation of the wind wheel 200. Axial bearings 12 are respectively sleeved on both ends of the support shaft 23, so that the rotor 11 can be supported by the support shaft 23 at different axial positions through the bearings 12 at both ends of the support shaft 23, to improve the stability of the position of the rotor 11 relative to the support shaft 23, thereby improving the stability of the rotation axis of the rotor 11.
[0078] Thus, the annular portion 221 and the end portion 222 enclose to form a receiving cavity 21, and the receiving cavity 21 opens towards the wind wheel 200, making the structure of the stator 22 relatively simple. The rotor 11 can be placed into the receiving cavity 21 from the end of the stator 22 that opens towards the wind wheel 200, which is convenient for the installation operation of the rotor 11 on the stator 22. At the same time, one end of the support shaft 23 that is close to the wind wheel 200 is suspended, so that the support shaft 23 can be axially spaced from the wind wheel 200 to avoid the support shaft 23 interfering with the connection between the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200, to ensure the reliable connection between the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200.
[0079] In this application, the fixing method of the support shaft 23 at the end portion 222 is not limited. For example, the support shaft 23 is integrally injection-molded on the end portion 222. For another example, the support shaft 23 is welded to the end portion 222.
[0080] In this application, the connection method between the end portion 222 and the annular portion 221 is not limited. For example, the end portion 222 and the annular portion 221 are integrally injection-molded. For another example, the end portion 222 is welded to the annular portion 221.
[0081] Furthermore, as shown in Figure 4 and Figure 5 , a sealing groove 225 surrounding the opening of the receiving cavity 21 is provided at one end of the annular portion 221 that is close to the wind wheel 200. The sealing groove 225 opens towards the wind wheel 200. An extension plate 117 surrounding the rotation axis is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the rotor 11 at one end close to the wind wheel 200. A baffle 118 is provided at one end of the extension plate 117 that is away from the rotation axis. The baffle 118 extends axially away from the wind wheel 200. Among them, when the rotor 11 is installed on the stator 22, the baffle 118 is axially inserted into the sealing groove 225.
[0082] Thus, through the cooperation of the baffle 118, the extension plate 117, and the sealing groove 225, the axial position of the rotor 11 relative to the stator 22 can be defined, reducing or avoiding the rotor 11 from moving into the accommodation cavity 21 and causing the stator 22 to contact the wind wheel 200, and reducing or avoiding the stator 22 from interfering with the rotation of the wind wheel 200. At the same time, a labyrinth seal structure can be formed by the cooperation between the baffle 118, the extension plate 117, and the sealing groove 225, thereby reducing or avoiding liquid from entering the accommodation cavity 21, enabling the rotor 11 to seal the accommodation cavity 21, and improving the reliability of the motor 100.
[0083] In some embodiments, as Figures 4-7 shown, the rotor 11 includes a plurality of split rotor cores 115 and a plurality of magnets 116, and the stator 22 includes a stator core 223 and a stator winding 224 to drive the rotor 11 to rotate relative to the stator 22. Among them, using a plurality of split rotor cores 115 can reduce the magnetic leakage effect of magnetic field conduction on the split rotor cores 115.
[0084] Preferably, the plurality of split rotor cores 115 and the plurality of magnets 116 are axially encapsulated by a polymer composite 119, which can reduce or avoid the axial movement of the magnets 116, reduce or avoid the split rotor cores 115 from axially disengaging from the rotor 11, and improve the structural stability and rotational stability of the rotor 11. Among them, the material of the polymer composite 119 is preferably polybutylene terephthalate (PBT).
[0085] Preferably, when the stator 22 includes an annular portion 221 and an end portion 222, the stator core 223 and the stator winding 224 are integrally injection-molded in the annular portion 221, which can insulate and waterproof the stator core 223 and the stator winding 224. Among them, the annular portion 221 and the end portion 222 are preferably bulk molding compound parts.
[0086] In some embodiments, as Figure 8 shown, the wind wheel 200 is an axial flow wind wheel, which includes a hub 240 and blades 250 arranged on the circumferential side of the hub 240. The hub 240 is drivingly connected to the rotor 11, and the rotor 11 drives the hub 240 to rotate to realize the rotation of the blades 250.
[0087] Exemplarily, as Figures 8-10 shown, the axial flow wind wheel includes a plurality of blades 250 arranged on the hub 240. The trailing edge region of the blade 250 is recessed toward the leading edge intake direction of the blade 250. The plurality of blades 250 are centered on the rotation center axis of the wind wheel 200. The axial flow wind wheel 200 can reduce the airflow noise and increase the air volume. The specific structure and principle of the axial flow wind wheel 200 are well known to those skilled in the art and will not be elaborated here.

[0090] For the air conditioner of the present application, by adopting the blower 1000 in the above embodiment, the blower 1000 can reduce the axial dimension of the motor 100 by embedding the bearing 12 in the rotor 11. The wind wheel 200 is directly connected to the rotor 11 of the motor 100, which can reduce the axial clearance between the rotor 11 and the wind wheel 200, that is, reduce the axial clearance between the motor 100 and the wind wheel 200, thereby reducing the axial dimension of the entire blower 1000, which is beneficial to the miniaturization of the blower 1000, and thus facilitating the layout of the blower 1000 in the air conditioner or reducing the volume of the air conditioner.
[0091] The other components and operations of the blower 1000 and the air conditioner according to the embodiment of the present application are known to those of ordinary skill in the art and will not be described in detail here.
