[0046] Example 1:

[0047] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the utility model provides a mixed fluid cooling motor, which includes a housing assembly 3 and a stator assembly 1, a rotor assembly 2 and a stator oil jacket 4 installed in the housing assembly 3.

[0048] The housing assembly 3 includes a cylindrical outer shell 32, which is coaxially mounted on the outside of the stator assembly 1. A front cover 31 is fixed to the front end of the outer shell 32, and a rear cover 33 is fixed to the rear end of the outer shell 32. The two ends of the stator assembly 1 are rotatably connected to the center holes of the front cover 31 and the rear cover 33, respectively.

[0049] Recombination Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the stator oil jacket 4 is coaxially sleeved in the outer shell 32. The stator oil jacket 4 is a double-layer cylinder with an open front end and a closed rear end by an annular plate 42. The annular plate 42 is provided with a plurality of evenly distributed first oil holes 43. The two ends of the stator oil jacket 4 are fixedly connected to the inner walls of the front cover 31 and the rear cover 33 respectively; an inner cavity 41 is formed between the annular plate 42, the double-layer cylinder and the front cover 31. The stator assembly 1 is embedded in the inner cavity 41, and evenly distributed inner axial oil channels 11 are provided on the stator assembly 1. The cooling medium at both ends of the inner cavity 41 can flow through the inner axial oil channels 11 on the stator assembly 1, thereby taking away the heat of the stator assembly 1.

[0050] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the drawings, the outer oil channel 301 is formed on the shell 32, the front end cover 31 and the rear end cover 33, and the two ends of the outer oil channel 301 are communicated with the open end of the stator oil jacket 4 and the first oil hole 43 respectively, and the outer oil channel 301 and the inner cavity 41 form a closed circulating oil channel. The micro oil pump 6 is fixed on the rear end cover 33 and communicated with the circulating oil channel, and under the action of the micro oil pump 6, the cooling medium circulates and flows between the outer oil channel 301 and the inner cavity 41.

[0051] The utility model fully immerses the motor stator in the oil cooling inner cavity 41 of the stator oil jacket, and forms the outer oil channel 301 communicated with the inner cavity 41 on the shell assembly 3;When working, the cooling oil is forced to circulate in the inner cavity 41 and the outer oil channel 301 by the micro oil pump 6, so as to form the structure that the internal heat conduction relies on the cooling oil and the external heat dissipation relies on the air, shorten the route of the internal heat conduction of the motor, improve the heat dissipation performance of the motor and reduce the risk of pipeline leakage.

[0052] Embodiment two:

[0053] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment one, the embodiment two provides a specific outer oil channel 301 structure;

[0054] Combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown in the drawings, a plurality of outer axial oil channels 321 are uniformly distributed around the axis of the shell 32 on the shell 32;A plurality of oil grooves are formed on the end face of the shell 32 for connecting the adjacent outer axial oil channels 321;Uniformly distributed heat dissipation fins 322 are arranged on the outer side of the shell 32 to improve the efficiency of the shell 32 to dissipate heat outward.

[0055] Combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown in the drawings, the rear side of the front end cover 31 is provided with a front oil groove 311, and the front oil groove 311 is opposite to the outer axial oil channel 321 and the open end of the stator oil jacket 4, so that the outer axial oil channel 321 and the open end of the stator oil jacket 4 are connected through the front oil groove 311.

[0056] Combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 8 , Figure 9 As shown in the drawings, the front side of the rear end cover 33 is provided with a rear inner oil groove 331 opposite to the outer axial oil channel 321, and the rear side of the rear end cover 33 is provided with an oil inlet 332 communicated with the rear inner oil groove 331;The cooling oil entering through the oil inlet 332 can enter the outer axial oil channel 321 through the rear inner oil groove 331;

[0057] A rear outer oil groove 333 is defined on the rear side of the rear end cover 33. A second oil hole 334 is defined at the bottom of the rear outer oil groove 333. The second oil hole 334 is opposite to and communicates with the first oil hole 43 at the closed end of the stator oil jacket 4. This allows cooling oil in the inner cavity 41 of the stator oil jacket 4 to enter the rear outer oil groove 333 through the first oil hole 43 and the second oil hole 334.

[0058] The oil baffle plate 7 is sealed and fixed outside the rear outer oil groove 333. An oil outlet 71 connected to the rear outer oil groove 333 is opened on the oil baffle plate 7; the cooling oil in the rear outer oil groove 333 flows out through the oil outlet 71;

[0059] The micro oil pump 6 is fixed on the rear end cover 33, and the oil inlet and oil outlet of the micro oil pump 6 are respectively connected to the oil outlet 71 and the oil inlet 332; under the action of the micro oil pump 6, the cooling oil flowing out of the oil outlet 71 enters the oil inlet 332 again, so that the cooling oil circulates between the inner cavity 41 and the outer oil channel 301.

[0060] Example 3:

[0061] Based on the above embodiment 2, combined with Figure 1 As shown, in this embodiment, the drive shaft of the micro oil pump 6 is connected to the rotating shaft of the rotor assembly 2 through the transmission belt 5, and the micro oil pump 6 is driven by the power of the motor when it is started, so as to realize the circulation of the cooling oil between the inner cavity 41 and the outer oil channel 301.

[0062] Working process:

[0063] Combine Figures 1 to 9 As shown, when the motor is started, the rotor assembly 2 rotates to drive the micro oil pump 6, which absorbs oil through the oil outlet 71 and discharges oil from the oil inlet 332; the cooling oil enters the rear inner oil groove 331, then flows through the outer axial oil channel 321, and the cooling oil dissipates heat through the outer shell 32 and the heat dissipation fins 322; the cooling oil after heat dissipation passes through the front oil groove 311, enters the inner cavity 41, and then passes through the inner axial oil channel 11 in the stator assembly 1, taking away the heat of the rotor assembly 2; the heated cooling oil passes through the first oil hole 43 and the second oil hole 334 into the rear outer oil groove 333, and is driven by the micro oil pump 6 to continue to circulate.

[0064] The utility model adds a stator oil jacket, and a micro oil pump forces cooling oil to circulate between the inner cavity of the stator oil jacket and the outer oil channel of the casing, forming a structure in which internal heat conduction relies on cooling oil and external heat dissipation relies on air. This combines the advantages of high efficiency of liquid cooling and lightness and simplicity of air cooling, and is particularly suitable for aviation motors, such as helicopter tail rotor motors and e-VTOL drive motors.

[0065] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to the present application without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application. Thus, if these modifications and variations of the present application fall within the scope of the claims of the present application and their equivalents, the present application also intends to include these modifications and variations.
