There is an annular air gap 7 between the outer rotor 3 and the stator 2. There is an end face gap 8 between the outer rotor 3 and the motor base 1, and the end face gap 8 communicates with the annular air gap 7.
[0039] An annular heat sink 5 is fixed to one end of the rotor housing 3.1 facing the motor base 1. The annular heat sink 5 includes several centrifugal blades 5.0 arranged circumferentially around the central axis 4. A centrifugal air duct 5.1 is formed between any two adjacent centrifugal blades 5.0. The air inlet of the centrifugal air duct 5.1 is connected to the end face gap 8.
[0040] In this embodiment, an efficient heat dissipation external rotor motor operates by having the external rotor 3 drive the annular heat sink 5 to rotate synchronously. The centrifugal blades 5.0 and centrifugal air duct 5.1 inside the annular heat sink 5 utilize centrifugal force to achieve radial airflow, forming a continuous airflow within the annular air gap 7, end face gap 8, and centrifugal air duct 5.1. This dissipates the heat generated by the motor windings and magnets to the outside of the motor, providing continuous and rapid heat dissipation and improving the reliability and service life of the motor.
[0041] Specific embodiment two, such as Figures 1-4 As shown, a high-efficiency heat dissipation external rotor motor includes a motor base 1, a stator 2, an external rotor 3, and an annular heat sink 5.
[0042] The stator 2 is fixed to the motor base 1. The outer rotor 3 is rotatably mounted on the motor base 1 via the central shaft 4. The outer rotor 3 includes a rotor housing 3.1. There is an annular air gap 7 between the outer rotor 3 and the stator 2. There is an end face gap 8 between the outer rotor 3 and the motor base 1, and the end face gap 8 communicates with the annular air gap 7.
[0043] An annular heat sink 5 is fixed to one end of the rotor housing 3.1 facing the motor base 1. The annular heat sink 5 includes several centrifugal blades 5.0 arranged circumferentially around the central axis 4. A centrifugal air duct 5.1 is formed between any two adjacent centrifugal blades 5.0. The air inlet of the centrifugal air duct 5.1 is connected to the end face gap 8.
[0044] In this embodiment, the annular heat sink 5 extends outward from the outer wall of the rotor housing 3.1. Thus, the arrangement of the annular heat sink 5 does not affect the structure of the outer rotor motor stator 2 and the outer rotor 3, facilitating actual manufacturing.
[0045] In one embodiment of this example, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3As shown in the drawings, the outer rotor motor with high heat dissipation efficiency further comprises a mounting member 6.

The annular heat dissipation member 5 is fixed on the rotor housing 3.1 through the mounting member 6. The annular heat dissipation member 5 and the rotor housing 3.1 are two independently manufactured components, and then the annular heat dissipation member 5 is fixed on the rotor housing 3.1 through the mounting member 6. In this way, the actual processing and manufacturing of the annular heat dissipation member 5 and the outer rotor 3 are facilitated.
[0046] Specifically, the mounting member 6 comprises a sleeve body 6.1 which is sleeved on the rotor housing 3.1. The sleeve body 6.1 is connected with the rotor housing 3.1 by welding. One end of the sleeve body 6.1 towards the motor base 1 is provided with a mounting disc 6.2 which extends outward. The annular heat dissipation member 5 is fixed on the mounting disc 6.2 by bolts, rivets or welding. In this way, the mounting of the mounting member 6 and the annular heat dissipation member 5 is facilitated, and the annular heat dissipation member 5 is stably and reliably mounted.
[0047] In another embodiment of the present embodiment, the annular heat dissipation member 5 and the rotor housing 3.1 are two independently manufactured components. The annular heat dissipation member 5 is directly fixed on the rotor housing 3.1 by bolts, rivets or welding (not shown in the drawings). In this way, the actual processing and manufacturing of the annular heat dissipation member 5 and the outer rotor 3 are facilitated; and the mounting member 6 can be omitted, thereby reducing the manufacturing cost.
[0048] In a third embodiment of the present embodiment, the annular heat dissipation member 5 and the rotor housing 3.1 are integrally formed, i.e., the annular heat dissipation member 5 and the rotor housing 3.1 are integrally manufactured (not shown in the drawings). In this way, when the outer rotor motor is assembled, the step of separately mounting the annular heat dissipation member 5 can be omitted.
[0049] In the working process of the outer rotor motor with high heat dissipation efficiency of the present embodiment, the outer rotor 3 drives the annular heat dissipation member 5 to rotate synchronously. The centrifugal blades 5.0 and the centrifugal air duct 5.1 in the annular heat dissipation member 5 utilize centrifugal force to realize radial air outlet, and continuous airflow is formed in the annular air gap 7, the end face gap 8 and the centrifugal air duct 5.1, thereby discharging the heat generated by the motor windings and the magnetic steel to the outside of the motor, playing a role of continuous and rapid heat dissipation, improving the operation reliability and service life of the motor.
[0050] Specifically, as shown in the drawings, Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 the middle part of the motor base 1 is provided with an installation shaft sleeve 1.1 which extends outward. The motor base 1 and the installation shaft sleeve 1.1 are integrally formed. The stator 2 is sleeved outside the installation shaft sleeve 1.1. The middle shaft 4 is rotatably installed in the installation shaft sleeve 1.1 through a bearing.
[0051] In one example, as shown in the drawings, Figure 1As shown, the inner hole of the mounting sleeve 1.1 is provided with a step face at each end, one end of the shaft 4 is fixed on the rotor shell 3.1, the rotor shell 3.1 is provided with a boss at the end of the shaft 4, the shaft 4 is provided with an annular clamping groove, and a clamping ring is clamped in the annular clamping groove. The shaft 4 is rotatably mounted in the mounting sleeve 1.1 through two bearings, and the two bearings are located between the boss and the clamping ring. One of the bearings is arranged at one end of the inner hole of the mounting sleeve 1.1, and the bearing is limited between the boss and the step face; the other bearing is arranged at the other end of the inner hole of the mounting sleeve 1.1, and one end of the bearing is limited between the step face and the clamping ring.
[0052] Further, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 3 , the motor base 1 is provided with a ring-shaped mounting plate 1.2 extending outward at one end close to the outer rotor 3. The ring-shaped mounting plate 1.2 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes 1.3. In this embodiment, the mounting holes 1.3 are threaded mounting holes 1.3. In this way, the ring-shaped mounting plate 1.2 can be used to mount the high-efficiency heat dissipation outer rotor motor of the present application, facilitating the installation and application of the outer rotor motor.
[0053] Further, as shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 4 , the annular heat dissipation member 5 includes two parallel annular plates, and the centrifugal blades 5.0 are arranged between the two annular plates and connect the two annular plates into one. In this way, the centrifugal air duct 5.1 forms a continuous air duct with both ends open, which is conducive to the centrifugal air duct 5.1 utilizing centrifugal force to improve radial air outflow and increase the continuous airflow formed in the annular air gap 7, the end face gap 8 and the centrifugal air duct 5.1.
[0054] In this embodiment, the annular heat dissipation member 5 is coaxially distributed with the shaft 4. In this way, the stability of the rotation of the outer rotor 3 and the annular heat dissipation member 5 can be improved during the operation of the outer rotor motor, and the shaking of the outer rotor 3 can be avoided.
[0055] In one embodiment of the present application, as shown in Figure 4 , the centrifugal blades 5.0 are arc-shaped, and the corresponding centrifugal air duct 5.1 is also arc-shaped. In this way, the rotation of the annular heat dissipation member 5 driven by the outer rotor 3 is conducive to reducing the flow resistance of the airflow in the centrifugal air duct 5.1, thereby improving the radial air outflow and increasing the continuous airflow formed in the annular air gap 7, the end face gap 8 and the centrifugal air duct 5.1.
[0056] In another embodiment of the present application, the centrifugal blades 5.0 extend radially along the shaft 4, and the corresponding centrifugal air duct 5.1 also extends radially along the shaft 4 (not shown in the figure). In this way, the actual processing and manufacturing of the annular heat dissipation member 5 are facilitated.
[0057] Further, as shown in Figure 1 ,Figure 2 As shown, an annular heat sink 5 and the motor base 1 are provided with an annular labyrinth dustproof structure 9. In this way, the annular labyrinth dustproof structure 9 can play a role in preventing dust and water.
[0058] The annular labyrinth dustproof structure 9 includes an annular recess 9.1 and an annular protrusion 9.2. The annular recess 9.1 is located on one of the annular heat sink 5 and the motor base 1, and the annular protrusion 9.2 is located on the other of the annular heat sink 5 and the motor base 1. The annular protrusion 9.2 extends into the annular recess 9.1. In this way, the annular labyrinth dustproof structure 9 can serve the functions of dustproofing and waterproofing.
[0059] In one example, such as Figure 2 As shown, the annular recess 9.1 is a groove structure and is disposed on the annular heat sink 5. The annular protrusion 9.2 is disposed on the side of the motor base 1 facing the annular heat sink 5, and the annular protrusion 9.2 and the motor base 1 are integrally formed. The annular protrusion 9.2 extends into the annular recess 9.1. In this example, there are two annular recesses 9.1, and there are also two corresponding annular protrusions 9.2, with the annular protrusions 9.2 extending into the corresponding annular recesses 9.1. Specifically, the annular plate of the annular heat sink 5 facing the motor base 1 has a recessed annular step inside, which constitutes one of the annular recesses 9.1; the annular plate of the annular heat sink 5 facing the motor base 1 has an annular boss, and the annular boss has an annular groove with its opening facing downward towards the motor base 1, which constitutes one of the annular recesses 9.1.
[0060] In another example, the annular recess 9.1 is a groove structure, and the annular recess 9.1 is located on the side of the motor base 1 facing the annular heat sink 5; the annular protrusion 9.2 is located on the side of the annular heat sink 5 facing the motor base 1, and the annular protrusion 9.2 and the annular heat sink 5 are integrally formed. In this example, there are one or more annular recesses 9.1, and there are also one or more corresponding annular protrusions 9.2, with the annular protrusions 9.2 extending into the corresponding annular recess 9.1.
[0061] In the third example, the annular recess 9.1 is a groove structure, and there are multiple annular recesses 9.1. A portion of the annular recesses 9.1 are located on the annular heat sink 5, and another portion is located on the side of the motor base 1 facing the annular heat sink 5. Correspondingly, there are also multiple annular protrusions 9.2, a portion of which are located on the annular heat sink 5, and another portion is located on the side of the motor base 1 facing the annular heat sink 5. The annular protrusions 9.2 extend into the corresponding annular recesses 9.1.
[0062] In this specific embodiment, the remaining structures are the same as in the specific embodiment, except that...
[0063] As shown in Figure 1 、 Figure 2 A high-efficiency heat dissipation outer rotor motor further comprises a control board, a front insulating cover 10 and an insulating body 11. A fixed gap is provided between the stator 2 and the motor base 1, and the fixed gap is communicated with the end face gap 8. The front insulating cover 10 is connected with the core of the stator 2 through bolts. The insulating body 11 is connected with the front insulating cover 10 through bolts or buckles. An insulating accommodation cavity 12 is formed between the front insulating cover 10 and the insulating body 11. The control board is arranged in the insulating accommodation cavity 12. The front insulating cover 10 and the insulating body 11 are located in the fixed gap and the end face gap 8, or the front insulating cover 10 and the insulating body 11 are only located in the fixed gap. During the operation of the motor, the chips of the control board will generate heat, which affects the temperature of the insulating accommodation cavity 12, resulting in poor heat dissipation effect of the control board, affecting the operation reliability and service life of the chips of the control board.
[0064] The high-efficiency heat dissipation outer rotor motor of the embodiment can effectively solve this problem. Specifically, during the operation of the high-efficiency heat dissipation outer rotor motor of the embodiment, the outer rotor 3 will drive the annular heat dissipation member 5 to rotate synchronously, the centrifugal blades 5.0 and the centrifugal air duct 5.1 in the annular heat dissipation member 5 utilize the centrifugal force to realize radial air outlet, and continuous airflow is formed in the annular air gap 7, the end face gap 8, the fixed gap and the centrifugal air duct 5.1. In this way, on the one hand, the heat generated by the motor winding and the magnetic steel can be discharged to the outside of the motor, playing a role of continuous and rapid heat dissipation, improving the operation reliability and service life of the motor; on the other hand, the heat generated by the chips of the control board in the insulating accommodation cavity 12 can be discharged to the outside of the motor, playing a role of continuous and rapid heat dissipation, reducing the temperature of the insulating accommodation cavity 12, improving the heat dissipation effect of the control board, and avoiding affecting the operation reliability and service life of the chips of the control board.
[0065] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present application, and does not limit the present application in any way.
