Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of motor cooling, in particular to a stator oil channel structure of an oil-cooled motor and the motor. Background Art

[0002] Traditional water-cooled motors remove heat from the motor as cooling water flows through a water jacket located outside the motor housing. Heat generated within the motor is first transferred to the motor housing or the surface of the water channel, where it then exchanges heat with the cooling water. However, this cooling method suffers from the drawback that the coolant cannot directly cool heat sources such as the stator core, windings, rotor, and permanent magnets.

[0003] In order to solve the above technical problems, the current technical solution is to use an oil-cooled structure motor, whose cooling oil directly contacts the heat-generating components, which can effectively solve the heating problems of the iron core, winding and rotor, and is a new direction for the development of passenger car motor cooling methods.

[0004] The current main technical route is to set up a straight oil channel on the surface of the core, and then spray the oil to the end of the stator winding after cooling the stator core. For example, the Chinese invention patent with application number CN117833508A discloses a stator radial staggered oil circuit cooling motor, which includes a housing assembly, an end cover assembly, a stator assembly and a rotor assembly; the housing assembly and the end cover assembly cooperate with each other to form a cavity, and the stator assembly and the rotor assembly are installed inside the cavity, and the cavity is divided into a first cavity and a second cavity; the stator assembly includes multiple sections of stacked punching segments, and each punching segment has cooling channels distributed in the circumferential direction. The cooling channels of adjacent punching segments are interconnected and radially staggered, ultimately forming a stator radial staggered oil circuit; the radial staggered oil circuit connects the first cavity and the second cavity. However, due to the small flow resistance of the cooling oil in this solution, the heat removal effect is not ideal.

[0005] Furthermore, a further improved cooling solution is to set circumferentially staggered oil channels on the stator surface. For example, the Chinese invention patent with application number CN117833507A discloses a stator circumferentially staggered oil channel cooling motor, including a housing assembly, an end cover assembly, a stator assembly and a rotor assembly; the housing assembly and the end cover assembly cooperate with each other to form a cavity, the stator assembly and the rotor assembly are installed inside the cavity, and the cavity is divided into a first cavity and a second cavity; the stator assembly includes multiple sections of stacked punching segments, and cooling channels are distributed circumferentially on the punching segments. The cooling channels of adjacent punching segments are interconnected and circumferentially staggered, ultimately forming a staggered oil channel; the staggered oil channel connects the first cavity and the second cavity. Although the cooling effect achieved by this solution has been improved to a certain extent, it is necessary to set an oil return channel on the shell, which makes the shell structure complex and the outer envelope size larger.

[0006] It can be seen that the existing oil-cooled motor still has the following defects:

[0007] On the one hand, the motor housing needs to be equipped with a dedicated oil return channel, which occupies the outer envelope size of the motor.

[0008] On the other hand, the motor stator oil passages are straight-through, resulting in poor cooling effect; if the motor stator oil passages are staggered, multiple stator punching sheets are required, which is inconvenient for material control. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiment is only a part of the embodiment of the present invention, not all of the embodiments.

[0039] The utility model aims to provide a stator oil channel structure of an oil-cooled motor, realizing a motor oil cooling structure which can reduce the outer envelope size of the motor and reduce the types of stator punching sheets.

[0040] refer to Figure 1 The motor includes a housing 100 and a stator assembly 200 built into the housing 100. Preferably, the stator assembly 200 is interference fit with the housing 100. The stator assembly 200 includes a stator core formed by stacking stator punching sheets.

[0041] The top of the housing 100 is vertically provided with an oil inlet 101. The two ends of the housing 100 are provided with end cover assemblies supporting the housing 100. The bottom of the end cover assembly is horizontally provided with an oil outlet 121, which is connected to the external circulation oil channel of the motor.

[0042] Preferably, the end cover assembly and the housing 100 are a separate structure or an integrated structure.

[0043] The stator punching is provided with an oil inlet groove 201 and an oil return groove 202, which are overlapped to form an oil inlet staggered oil channel; an oil return channel 203 is provided at the bottom of the stator core. The oil return channel 203 is arranged away from the oil inlet 101.

[0044] For further explanation, see Figure 5 The oil inlet groove 201 is asymmetrically designed with respect to the radial direction of the stator punching sheet; the oil return groove 202 is symmetrically designed with respect to the radial direction of the stator punching sheet; and the oil return oil channel 203 is symmetrically designed with respect to the radial direction of the stator punching sheet.

[0045] In this embodiment, there is only one type of stator punching sheet, which facilitates material control; at the same time, the cooling oil channel and the oil return channel are both provided on the stator core, which simplifies the processing requirements for the housing 100.

[0046] For further explanation, see references 3-4. Opened oil drencher rings surround both ends of the stator assembly 200, forming a closed oil passage with the housing 100. Cooling oil flowing through the oil inlet 101 cools the stator before flowing through the openings in the oil drencher rings, from the return oil passage 203 to the oil outlet 121, and finally to the motor's external oil circulation passage.

[0047] To further explain, the oil sprinkler ring assembly includes a front oil sprinkler ring 210 and a rear oil sprinkler ring 220 , wherein the front oil sprinkler ring 210 and the rear oil sprinkler ring 220 are respectively engaged and fixed on the two ends of the stator assembly 200 .

[0048] To explain further, a front oil sprinkler ring opening 211 and a rear oil sprinkler ring opening 221 are respectively provided at corresponding positions of the front oil sprinkler ring 210 and the rear oil sprinkler ring 220 . The front oil sprinkler ring opening 211 and the rear oil sprinkler ring opening 221 are provided away from the oil inlet 101 .

[0050] To further explain, the end cover assembly includes a front cover 110 and a rear cover 120.

[0052] This embodiment eliminates the dedicated oil return passage on the traditional housing 100, and arranges the oil inlet staggered oil passage and the oil return passage 203 in the circumference of the stator core, thereby reducing the envelope size of the motor; at the same time, there is only one type of stator punching sheet, which reduces the types of stator punching sheets and facilitates material control.

[0053] It should be noted that the motor containing the stator oil channel structure provided in this embodiment also falls within the scope of protection of the present utility model.

[0054] Although the embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
