Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0030] An embodiment of this utility model provides a submersible rim drive.

[0031] Example: Figures 1-6 As shown, a submersible rim drive includes a rotor blade 14, a rotor assembly, a sealing assembly, and a housing structure. The rotor assembly is disposed inside the housing structure, and the rotor assembly is sealed and protected by sealing assemblies on both sides of the rotor assembly to prevent external liquid from entering the rotor assembly and causing damage to the rotor assembly. The rotor blade 14 is disposed on the inner ring surface of the annular rotating body 17.

[0032] The shell structure is provided with a stator shell 3, which is annularly arranged, and a rotor assembly and a sealing structure are arranged in the stator shell 3. The rotor assembly comprises a stator core 1 fixedly arranged inside the stator shell 3, and the stator core 1 is provided with a copper wire winding. An inner ring of the stator core 1 is provided with a ring of a rotor core 15, and there is a gap between the stator core 1 and the rotor core 15 without contact. The rotor core 15 is provided with a rotor magnetic steel 16, and the thickness of the rotor magnetic steel 16 ranges from 1 mm to 5 mm. The rotor magnetic steel 16 can generate a stable strong magnetic field, and the rotor core 15 is fixedly installed on a rotating body 17. The rotating body 17 is provided with rotor blades 14, which are of a curved surface type. A plurality of rotor blades 14 are evenly arranged on the rotating body 17, and the number of the rotor blades 14 arranged can be 3-9. When the stator core 1 is electrified, the stator core 1 generates a magnetic field, which acts on the rotor core 15, thereby generating a rotating torque to drive the rotor core 15 to rotate, and at the same time, drive the rotating body 17 to rotate, so that the rotor blades 14 on the rotating body 17 rotate.

[0033] The number of the rotor blades 14 arranged in the embodiment is 5, and the odd number of blades has stronger stability and avoids resonance. The odd number of blades can be arranged in an asymmetric shape, while the even number of blades will form a symmetric arrangement. When rotating at high speed, uneven material quality and installation errors can easily cause the even number of blades to vibrate, and the vibration of one blade will be transmitted to the opposite blade, causing resonance, which can cause the blades to be unable to withstand the fatigue caused by resonance for a long time, and eventually may break. The odd number of blades can effectively reduce noise and vibration, and avoid such problems. The asymmetric structure of the odd number of blades makes the center of gravity of the whole system more evenly distributed, so that it can better maintain balance during rotation, reduce the shaking caused by the deviation of the center of gravity, and improve the stability of operation. The odd number of blades has relatively small disturbance to the surrounding water flow when rotating, so that the water flow flows more smoothly, thereby reducing the noise caused by water flow vortex and turbulence.

[0034] The rotating assembly is provided with a bearing 11, which is an angular contact ball bearing and can simultaneously bear radial load and axial load, for supporting the rotor, reducing the friction coefficient during movement of the rotor, and ensuring the rotation accuracy of the rotor. The bearing 11 is arranged in loose fit, and the bottom side of the bearing 11 is provided with a sealing structure. The sealing structure comprises a mirror ring base 8, and a mirror ring base sealing ring 10 is arranged between the mirror ring base 8 and a rotating body 17. The mirror ring base sealing ring 10 can isolate the liquid flow between the inside and outside of the motor. A bearing inner ring gasket 13 is arranged between the inner side of the bearing 11 and the mirror ring base 8. The bearing inner ring gasket 13 is a PET gasket, which can avoid hard contact between the bearing 11 and the mirror ring base 8, so as to prevent damage to both. The side of the mirror ring base 8 is provided with a mirror ring 7, and a mirror ring base outer sealing ring 9 is arranged between the mirror ring 7 and the mirror ring base 8. A water seal 5 is arranged above the mirror ring 7, which can isolate the liquid flow between the inside and outside of the motor and play a waterproof role. The contact surface of the mirror ring 7 has low surface roughness and is in close contact with the rotating body of the water seal 5, so as to reduce the dynamic friction resistance between the mirror ring 7 and the rotating body of the water seal 5 during the operation of the motor. A mirror ring fixing ring 6 is arranged on the side of the mirror ring 7, which fixes the mirror ring 7 on the mirror ring base 8. The mirror ring 7, the mirror ring base 8 and the mirror ring fixing ring 6 are connected by screws.

[0035] The whole machine is provided with a fairing 2, which is arranged in a circular arc shape, so as to better guide the water flow into the paddle flow channel. Meanwhile, the fairing 2 is provided with a drain port 12, so as to avoid the accumulation of small particle foreign matters between the fairing 2 and the motor and facilitate cleaning.

[0036] The whole cavity of the device is sealed. The sealing structures on both sides of the inside of the driver form a sealed cavity with the stator core 1 and the rotating body 17. Injecting lubricating oil into the sealed cavity can greatly reduce the friction between the various moving parts in the cavity. On the other hand, the liquid itself has the characteristic of being incompressible. The cavity filled with lubricating oil can support the cavity from being deformed by water pressure in deep water. The void filling ratio of the lubricating oil of the device is 80%-100%.

[0037] A protruding block is arranged on the shell of the stator housing 3, and a top wire outlet is arranged on the protruding block. The copper winding group wound in the stator core 1 is coated by gluing after winding in the stator core 1. The electric wire extending from the copper winding group is stretched out of the top wire outlet. Because the surface of the copper winding group in the stator core 1 is provided with an insulating paint, the copper winding group will not electrify when electrified, so the stator core 1 and the internal lubricating oil will not react.

[0038] There are two ways to inject oil in the whole machine, the first way is to immerse the whole machine in lubricating oil, and connect the gas pipe to the top outlet to extract the gas in the wall, so that the lubricating oil can fill the cavity without bubbles, and then seal the two end flow guide cover 2 in the lubricating liquid; At the same time, the second way can use a hose needle, first preinstall the flow guide cover, and then seal the upper end face flow guide cover after the lubricating oil is filled and continues to overflow, which can also ensure that the lubricating oil fills the cavity without bubbles. The sealing structure of the whole machine can avoid the entry of sundries in the environment into the motor to increase the internal friction loss and corrode the internal structural parts of the motor.

[0039] Working principle: the rotating body 17, the mirror ring base 8 and the bearing 11 are connected and fixed, and the mirror ring base 8 and the rotating body 17 are rotated by rotating the bearing 11, and the water seal 5 is arranged on the side of the bearing 11 and the mirror ring base 8, the mirror ring 7 and the mirror ring fixed ring 6 are fixed and sealed, which can realize the sealing of the whole cavity, so that the lubricating liquid in the cavity does not come into contact with the external liquid, and the mirror ring base outer sealing ring 9 and the mirror ring base inner sealing ring 10 are arranged on the mirror ring base 8, and the flow guide cover sealing ring 4 is arranged on the flow guide cover 2 and the stator housing 3 to isolate the liquid flow between the inside and outside of the motor. When the lubricating oil fills the inner cavity of the motor, the wires on the stator core 1 are led out from the top outlet, and the top outlet is sealed. When in use, the power is turned on, the electric signal enters the stator core 1 through the wire, the copper winding group in the stator core 1 is electrified to generate a magnetic field, and the magnetic field generated by the electrification of the stator core 1 acts on the rotor core 15 to make the rotor core 15 rotate. Because there is a gap between the stator core 1 and the rotor core 15, the rotation of the rotor core 15 does not affect the stator core 1; the rotor core 15 is fixedly connected with the rotating body 17 to realize the rotation of the rotating body 17, and the rotation of the rotating body 17 realizes the rotation of the rotor blade 14 on the rotating body 17, which drives the water flow. The setting of the mirror ring 7 realizes the rotation of the mirror ring base 8 and the rotating body 17 at the same time, reduces the sliding friction coefficient between the water seals 5, and guarantees the sealing of the internal cavity. The flow guide cover 2 can guide the fluid to flow along a more reasonable streamline path, reduce the separation and vortex formation of the fluid on the surface of the object, and effectively reduce the water flow resistance. The flow guide cover 2 can converge the fluid, increase the flow rate and flow of the water flow in the inner ring flow channel of the motor. There is no shaft in the middle of the flow channel, and there is no dead angle, which can avoid the entanglement of foreign matters on the blades and the generation of cavitation, and greatly reduce the noise of the motor when running in water. When there are large soft foreign matters embedded on the blades, the motor can be reversed, and the foreign matters can be easily removed in water with the help of water flow.
