DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0023] In order to facilitate the understanding of the present invention, the present invention will be described more comprehensively below with reference to the relevant drawings. Several embodiments of the present invention are given in the drawings, but the present invention can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the text. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the content disclosed in the present invention more thorough and comprehensive. Example
[0024] Please refer to the attached Figure 1 、 2 As shown, a waterproof structure of the motor output end includes a motor 1, the motor 1 is provided with an output shaft 101, one end of the motor 1 provided with the output shaft 101 is connected to a waterproof cover 2, a through hole 201 is provided in the center of the waterproof cover 2, a bearing 203 is provided in the through hole 201, waterproof oil seals 3 are installed in the mounting grooves 202 on both sides of the through hole 201, the output shaft 101 passes through the through hole 201 and the waterproof oil seal 3, and the output shaft 101 coincides with the axis of the bearing 203, the through hole 201 and the waterproof oil seal 3.
[0025] It should be noted that a mounting block 204 is provided on the waterproof cover 2, and the waterproof cover 2 is detachably connected to the motor 1 with bolts through the mounting block 204, and a sealing rubber ring 205 is provided between the waterproof cover 2 and the motor 1. A guide groove 206 is provided on the outer surface of the waterproof cover 2. The cross-section of the guide groove 206 is V-shaped, which can effectively guide the water flow away from the motor 1 and avoid water accumulation on the surface of the waterproof cover 2.
[0026] It should be noted that the output shaft 101 is rotatably connected to the through hole 201 via the bearing 203. This ensures the normal rotation of the output shaft 101 without affecting the sealing performance of the waterproof structure.
[0027] It should be noted that the motor 1 housing is provided with heat dissipation fins 102, which are evenly distributed on the outer surface of the motor 1 housing in a circular shape, ensuring the waterproof performance of the motor while enabling the motor to operate within the normal operating temperature range.

[0029] It should be noted that the metal skeleton 301 provides support and strength for the waterproof oil seal 3, so that it can maintain a stable shape during installation and use, preventing the waterproof oil seal 3 from deformation or damage. The sealing lip 303 is made of elastic rubber and fits tightly on the surface of the output shaft 101 to form a dynamic seal to prevent moisture from entering the interior of the motor 1. The spring 304 provides continuous pressure to the sealing lip 303, so that it can fit more closely on the surface of the output shaft 101. The elasticity of the spring 304 can also compensate for the wear and deformation of the sealing lip 303 during use, ensuring that the waterproof oil seal 3 always maintains good sealing performance.
[0030] It should be noted that the specifications and dimensions of the two waterproof oil seals 3 are the same. The sealing lip 303 of the waterproof oil seal 3 on the outer wall of the waterproof cover 2 faces inward, which can block most of the moisture; the sealing lip 303 of the waterproof oil seal 3 on the inner wall faces outward, further strengthening the seal and preventing a small amount of moisture that may pass through the first waterproof oil seal 3 from entering the interior of the motor 1.
[0031] The specific operation mode of the utility model is as follows:
[0032] The bearing 203 within the through-hole 201 enables the output shaft 101 to rotate stably, ensuring the normal operation of the motor 1. The sealing lip 303 of the waterproof oil seal 3 on the outer wall of the waterproof cover 2 faces inward, blocking most moisture. The sealing lip 303 of the waterproof oil seal 3 on the inner wall faces outward, further strengthening the seal and preventing a small amount of moisture that may pass through the first waterproof oil seal 3 from entering the interior of the motor 1. The V-shaped guide groove 206 on the outer surface of the waterproof cover 2 effectively guides water away from the motor 1, preventing water from accumulating on the surface of the waterproof cover 2. The sealing rubber ring 205 between the waterproof cover 2 and the motor 1 further strengthens the sealing of the connection, preventing water from seeping into the motor through the connection.
