Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of motor heat dissipation, and more particularly to a motor heat dissipation structure. Background Technology
[0002] An electric motor is a device that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy, mainly composed of a stator, rotor, housing, and end covers. Current methods for cooling electric motors include using a fan mounted at the rear of the shaft to blow airflow. However, because the airflow from the fan has a limited range and is not directed promptly after being generated, most of the air is lost and not fully utilized by the motor, thus reducing cooling efficiency. Another method involves incorporating multiple ventilation slots and vents within the motor itself for cooling. While this provides some cooling, over long-term use, a large amount of dust and other debris can enter the motor body through these slots and vents, not only affecting cooling but also increasing the risk of motor malfunctions.

[0043] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0044] This utility model embodiment provides a motor heat dissipation structure; please refer to... Figures 1-4 The motor heat dissipation structure includes a motor body and a heat dissipation unit. The heat dissipation unit is sleeved on the outside of the motor body, allowing heat to be dissipated from the outer wall of the motor body.
[0045] Specifically,
[0046] The motor body includes a housing and a rotating assembly. The housing has a housing body 10, a front cover 11, and a rear cover 12, with the front cover 11 and the rear cover 12 respectively connected to both sides of the housing body 10. A first guide groove group 100 is formed on the outer wall of the housing body along the circumference of the housing body, and a second guide groove group 120 matching the first guide groove group 100 is formed on the outer wall of the rear cover along the circumference of the rear cover. That is, when the rear cover 12 is connected to the housing body 10, the first guide groove is positioned opposite the second guide groove. Preferably, the shape and size of each first guide groove are the same as the shape and size of its corresponding second guide groove. A set of bases 13 is provided at the bottom of the housing body for supporting the motor body and facilitating heat dissipation at the bottom of the motor body. The rotating assembly includes a rotating shaft 20, a rotor 22, and a stator 23. The rotating shaft 20 passes through the front cover 11, the housing body 10, and the rear cover 12 in sequence, with its two ends exposed at the front cover 11 and the rear cover 12 respectively, and a fan 21 is installed on the rear cover 12. The rotor 22 is fitted onto the outer wall of the shaft 20. The stator 23 is installed inside the housing body 10, corresponding to the rotor 22.
[0047] The heat dissipation assembly includes a fan shroud 30 and a connecting bracket. One side of the fan shroud is mounted to the motor body via the connecting bracket connected to the front cover 11. When the fan 21 of the motor body is running, a large amount of air can be guided through the second guide channel of the rear cover 12 and through the first guide channel of the outer casing 10 to reach the front cover 11, so that the outer surface of the motor body can be effectively cooled.
[0048] The air diffuser 30 includes a fixed cover 300 and a mounting cover 301. The fixed cover 300 is a hollow cylindrical structure with open front and rear ends. A slot is provided on the outer wall of the fixed cover. The fixed cover 300 is fitted onto the outside of the rear end cover. The mounting cover 301 is a cover structure with open ends and a diameter that gradually increases. A third set of guide channels 302 is provided circumferentially inside the mounting cover 301. Preferably, when the air diffuser 30 is mounted to the motor body via a connecting bracket, each third guide channel inside the mounting cover 301 is aligned with a corresponding second guide channel. When the motor is started, the structural design of the air diffuser 30 helps increase the airflow to the outer wall of the motor body, accelerating heat dissipation from the motor body.
[0049] Multiple connecting frames are provided, each including an extension plate portion 310 and a fixing plate portion 311. The rear end sidewall of the extension plate portion is bolted to the front end sidewall of the fixing cover. To reduce the probability of connecting frame deformation, an elastic protrusion 312 matching a slot is provided on the outer wall of the extension plate portion 310 near its rear end, allowing the elastic protrusion 312 to engage within the slot. The fixing plate portion 311 is welded to the front end of the extension plate portion 310. The fixing plate portion 311 is bolted to the front end of the front end cover. A spring 32 is installed between each connecting frame and the outer casing 10, which helps reduce the vibration of the heat dissipation components when the motor vibrates during operation, thereby reducing the probability of the connecting frame being deformed and damaged due to long-term motor vibration.
[0050] Example 2
[0051] For easier replacement and cleaning of cover 301, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 5 The fixed cover 300 of this application is equipped with multiple mounting covers. Each mounting cover 301 is assembled from multiple mounting pieces into a cover structure with open ends. Preferably, adjacent mounting pieces can be assembled by plugging in. Each mounting piece is connected to the rear end of the fixed cover. Each mounting piece has a third guide channel group 302; when the mounting pieces are assembled into the mounting cover 301, the third guide channel is located on the inner wall of the mounting cover. When the air intake of the diffuser 30 is affected by dust accumulation in the third guide channel group 302, the mounting pieces can be removed one by one and replaced to facilitate cleaning of the mounting cover 301.
[0052] Based on the above embodiments, the working principle of this application is as follows:
[0053] After installing the mounting cover 301 onto the fixed cover 300, the fixed cover 300 is then installed onto the front cover 11 via the connecting bracket, thus completing the installation of the air diffuser 30 at the motor body. When the motor body is started, under the combined action of the air diffuser 30 and the fan 21, a large amount of air flows sequentially along the third guide channel of the mounting cover 301 towards the fixed cover 300, and then flows along the second guide channel group 120 of the rear cover 12 towards the outer casing 10, and then along the first guide channel group 100 to the front cover 11 and the end of the rotating shaft exposed on the front cover 11. In summary, this ensures effective heat dissipation on the outer surface of the motor body.
[0054] Based on the above embodiments, the advantages of this application are:
[0055] (1) The air hood 30 with the third guide slot group 302 is installed on the motor body through the connecting frame, and combined with the flared structure of the air hood 30, the air intake in the air hood 30 is increased, and the heat dissipation of the motor body is accelerated.
[0056] (2) The fixed cover 300 is equipped with multiple mounting covers 301, and each mounting cover 301 is detachable into multiple mounting pieces. This design facilitates the replacement and cleaning of the mounting covers 301 and prevents the third guide channel group 302 from accumulating dust and affecting the air intake of the expansion cover 30.
