[0076] The reducer 9 , the stator 21 , the rotor 32 and the like of the present application are all disposed in the accommodating cavity 101 surrounded by the housing 1 .

[0077] In other embodiments, the reducer 9 and the stator 21 , the rotor 32 , etc. may be respectively arranged in an accommodating cavity 101 surrounded by two independent shells 1 , and this application does not impose any limitation on this.

[0078] There are two third through-holes 314 , which are evenly distributed along the circumferential direction of the motor shaft 31 . There are four fourth through-holes 315 , which are evenly distributed on the motor shaft 31 .

[0079] In other embodiments, the number of the third through-holes 314 may be greater than two or less than two, and the number of the fourth through-holes 315 may be greater than four or less than four, which is not limited in the present application.

[0080] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 and Figures 14 to 20 As shown, the motor provided in this application also includes an oil pump 6 and an oil cooler 7. The oil pump 6 is used to drive the flow of the cooling medium. The oil pump 6 is disposed on the housing 1 and is located outside the accommodating cavity 101. The oil pump 6 includes a first oil inlet 61 and a first oil outlet 62. The first oil inlet 61 is connected to the storage portion 5, and the first oil outlet 62 is connected to the first channel 401.

[0081] Driven by the oil pump 6 , the cooling medium enters the first oil inlet 61 from the storage portion 5 and flows out from the first oil outlet 62 to the first channel 401 , where it is divided into two paths to cool the stator 21 and the rotor 32 respectively.

[0082] The motor provided in the present application can adjust the flow rate of the cooling medium in real time according to the actual temperature of the motor by setting an independent oil pump 6, thereby achieving real-time control of the motor temperature and saving energy.

[0083] The motor provided herein also includes an oil filter 8, which is disposed between the reservoir 5 and the oil pump 6. The oil filter 8 includes a second oil inlet 81 and a second oil outlet 82. The second oil outlet 82 communicates with the first oil inlet 61 of the oil pump 6. The cooling medium within the reservoir 5 is first filtered through the oil filter 8, thereby preventing impurities in the cooling medium from damaging the stator 21 and rotor 32 during the cooling process.

[0084] The oil pump 6 provided herein also includes a transmission pipe 63. The housing 1 is provided with a port 14, a mounting portion 15, and a cooling medium passage (not shown). The transmission pipe 63 includes a pipe inlet 631, a pipe outlet 632, and a fixing portion 633. The pipe inlet 631 communicates with the first oil outlet 62 of the oil pump 6. The port 14 connects the pipe outlet 632 and the cooling medium passage, which in turn communicates with the oil cooler 7.

[0085] The fixing portion 633 is provided with a mounting hole, and the mounting portion 15 is provided with a through hole that matches the mounting hole of the fixing portion 633. The bolt passes through the mounting hole and the through hole, thereby fixing the fixing portion 633 and the mounting portion 15 to fix one end of the transmission tube 63 to the shell 1.

[0086] The cooling medium enters the transmission pipe 63 from the first oil outlet 62 of the oil pump 6 through the pipe inlet 631 , and enters the cooling medium channel from the pipe outlet 632 in the transmission pipe 63 and is transported to the oil cooler 7 .

[0087] The oil cooler 7 forms a cooling chamber that communicates with the storage portion 5. The oil cooler 7 is mounted on the housing 1 outside the accommodating chamber 101 and near the storage portion 5. The proximity of the oil cooler 7 and the oil pump 6 reduces the length of the path between them, thereby saving energy and improving efficiency. Furthermore, since both the oil cooler 7 and the oil pump 6 are located outside the accommodating chamber 101, the volume of the accommodating chamber 101 enclosed by the housing 1 can be designed to be smaller, thereby reducing the size of the motor and improving its miniaturization.

[0088] The oil cooler 7 includes a third oil inlet 71 and a third oil outlet 72. The third oil inlet 71 connects the cooling medium channel with the cooling chamber, while the third oil outlet 72 connects the cooling chamber with the first channel 401. The cooling medium stored in the storage unit 5 has a higher temperature due to cooling the motor. Before returning to the first channel 401, the cooling medium enters the cooling chamber for cooling and then flows into the first channel 401, thereby forming a cooling cycle for the motor.

[0089] The housing 1 is provided with a fifth channel (not shown), which connects the third oil outlet 72 and the first channel 401 . The cooled cooling medium enters the fifth channel of the housing 1 from the third oil outlet 72 and flows into the first channel 401 .

[0090] The cover plate 4 includes a third through-hole 41, a fourth through-hole 42, and a fifth through-hole 43. The third through-hole 41 connects the first channel 401 with the second channel 11. The fourth through-hole 42 connects the first channel 401 with the fourth channel 311. The fifth through-hole 43 connects the fifth channel with the first channel 401. The cooled cooling medium passes from the fifth channel through the fifth through-hole 43 into the first channel 401 and is divided into two branches within the first channel 401: one is the stator cooling path, in which the cooling medium passes through the third through-hole 41 into the second channel 11 and flows out from the second channel 11, thereby cooling the stator 21; the other is the rotor cooling path, in which the cooling medium passes through the fourth through-hole 42 into the fourth channel 311 and then enters the cooling channel within the rotor 32 from the fourth channel 311, thereby cooling the rotor 32.

[0091] The cover plate 4 defines an oil injection cavity 44 and an oil injection port 45. The oil injection port 45 faces the motor shaft 31. A fourth through hole 42 connects the oil injection cavity 44 with the first channel 401. Cooling medium in the first channel 401 passes through the fourth through hole 42 into the oil injection cavity 44, and is ejected from the oil injection port 45 into the fourth channel 311 formed by the motor shaft 31, thereby cooling the motor shaft 31.

[0092] The oil cooler 7 further includes a water inlet 83 and a water outlet 84 for supplying coolant into the cooling cavity of the oil cooler 7 to cool the cooling medium in the cooling cavity.

[0093] The motor of the present application is mounted on a vehicle, and the vehicle includes a thermal management system. The oil cooler 7 of the present application is connected to the thermal management system of the vehicle. The housing 1 is provided with a coolant channel (not shown) for the flow of coolant. The coolant in the thermal management system enters the cooling channel and enters the cooling cavity from the water inlet 83 in the oil cooler 7 to cool the cooling medium. The cooled coolant returns to the cooling channel from the water outlet 84 and returns to the thermal management system from the cooling channel.

[0094] The motor provided in the present application can realize closed circulation of the cooling medium through the oil pump 6 and the oil cooler 7, thereby improving the cooling efficiency of the cooling medium.

[0095] The present application also provides an electric drive assembly, including the above-mentioned motor.

[0096] It should be noted that the technical solutions or technical features described in the above embodiments can be combined or supplemented with each other without conflict. The scope of protection of this application is not limited to the precise structures described in the above embodiments and shown in the accompanying drawings; all modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of this application shall be included in the scope of protection of this application.
