[0024] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:
[0025] like Figures 1 to 6 The embodiment of the utility model shown preferably provides a motor waterproof structure, including a motor body, the motor body having a motor housing 1, an end cover 2 and an output main shaft 3, the end cover 2 is sealed and installed at the end of the motor housing 1, the output main shaft 3 is arranged in the motor housing 1 and protrudes outward and is inserted into one side of the end cover 2, a through hole 4 is penetrated on one side of the end cover 2, a hollow ring-shaped sealing cover ring 5 is connected by a thread in the through hole 4, and a concentric bushing 6, a skeleton oil seal 7 and a waterproof bearing 8 are sequentially arranged on the inner side of the sealing cover ring 5, and the output main shaft 3 is sequentially inserted into the waterproof bearing 8, the skeleton oil seal 7 and the bushing 6.
[0026] Specifically, the sealing cover ring is arranged between the output main shaft and the end cover, so that the sealing cover ring seals the output main shaft and the end cover;
[0027] The sealing cover ring is integrated with a waterproof bearing, a skeleton oil seal and a bushing, which cooperate with the output main shaft to achieve multiple sealing protection between the sealing cover ring and the output main shaft.
[0028] Moreover, by removing the sealing cover ring, it is convenient to maintain and replace the waterproof bearing, the skeleton oil seal and the bushing, which solves the problem of the need to remove the entire motor housing in the prior art.
[0029] Furthermore, the sealing cover ring 5 has a flange 9 protruding along its outer circumference, and a first annular flange 10 is provided on one side of the end cap 2 along the circumferential contour of the through hole 4. A cavity 11 is formed between the flange 9 and the first annular flange 10. A locking member 12 is provided in the cavity 11 to prevent the sealing cover ring 5 from rotating relative to the end cap 2. Specifically, the locking member is used to achieve locking and fixation after the sealing cover ring and the end cap are threaded together, thereby effectively preventing the sealing cover ring from loosening due to vibration.
[0030] Furthermore, a second annular flange 13 is provided on the end cap 2, located outside the first annular flange 10. The second annular flange 13 is concentrically disposed with the first annular flange 10, and the outer wall of the second annular flange 13 is in sealing contact with the inner wall of the flange 9. Specifically, the second annular flange forms an upwardly arched protrusion, and when the second annular flange contacts the flange of the sealing cover ring, a first waterproof seal is achieved between the end cap and the sealing cover ring. Simultaneously, the end of the first annular flange contacts the inner wall of the sealing cover ring, thereby achieving a second waterproof seal between the end cap and the sealing cover ring.
[0031] Furthermore, the outer sidewall of the second annular flange 13 is a downwardly inclined first slope 14, and the inner sidewall of the flange 9 is a second slope 15 that can be sealed against the first slope 14. Specifically, by setting the first slope of the second annular flange to abut against the second slope of the flange, water leakage can be better avoided.
[0032] Further, if Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the locking member 12 includes a locking ring 31 that is movably disposed up and down within the cavity 11, and an elastic member 32 that abuts between the locking ring 31 and the cavity 11, allowing the two to elastically move up and down relative to each other. The locking ring 31 has a plurality of latching teeth 33 evenly distributed along its circumference on its lower side, and a plurality of tooth grooves 34 that engage with the latching teeth 33 evenly distributed along its circumference on one side of the end cap 2 and located within the cavity 11. Specifically, a reinforcing rib is provided on the inner side of the sealing cover ring and located within the cavity, and a recessed portion that cooperates with the reinforcing rib is provided along its circumference, so that the locking ring can only move up and down relative to the sealing cover ring. The elastic member can be a spring, which abuts against the spring to achieve elastic movement of the locking ring relative to the cavity. When the sealing cover ring is installed on the end cap, the latching teeth of the locking ring engage with the tooth grooves in the end cap, thereby achieving relative locking between the sealing cover ring and the end cap.
[0033] Furthermore, the locking member 12 further includes an unlocking crossbar 35. A through-groove 36 communicating with the cavity 11 is formed through one side of the sealing cover ring 5. The through-groove 36 has a stepped cross section. The unlocking crossbar 35 is movably arranged in the through-groove 36. A third inclined surface 37 is provided at one end of the unlocking crossbar 35. A groove 39 is formed inwardly along the circumference of the outer circumference of the locking ring 31. A fourth inclined surface 40 is provided in the groove 39 to cooperate with and abut against the third inclined surface 37. Specifically, when the locking member needs to be unlocked, the user presses the unlocking crossbar to move the unlocking crossbar axially along the through-groove. The third inclined surface of the unlocking crossbar abuts against the fourth inclined surface of the locking ring. The locking ring is guided by the inclined surface to move relative to the sealing cover ring and compress the elastic force of the elastic member, so that the locking teeth of the locking ring are disengaged from the tooth grooves in the end cover, so that the sealing cover ring can be screwed and removed relative to the end cover.
[0034] Furthermore, a first sealing gasket (not shown) is provided between the bushing 6 and the sealing cover ring 5, thereby achieving a better sealing effect.
[0035] Furthermore, a second sealing gasket (not shown) is provided between the second annular flange 13 and the first annular flange 10, thereby achieving a better sealing effect.
[0036] Furthermore, the bushing 6 , the skeleton oil seal 7 and the waterproof bearing 8 are interference-fittedly arranged on the inner side of the sealing cover ring 5 .
