[0061] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, the outer rotor 41 and the pump cover 1 do not contact, and the gap is provided with an oil film, thereby reducing the friction and achieving the process expectation, so as to maintain good working condition.

[0062] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, the outer rotor 41 and the pump body 5 do not contact, and the gap is provided with an oil film, thereby reducing the friction and achieving the process expectation, so as to maintain good working condition.

[0063] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, no sealing element or / and sealing strip is arranged between the outer rotor 41 and the pump cover 1; no sealing element or / and sealing strip is arranged between the outer rotor 41 and the pump body 5, without the need to use the sealing element, the sealing strip, the structure for supporting the outer rotor and reducing the friction is cancelled, and the cost and structural complexity are reduced.

[0064] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, the outer rotor 41 is provided with the inner rotor 3, no sealing element or / and sealing strip is arranged between the inner rotor 3 and the pump cover 1; no sealing element or / and sealing strip is arranged between the inner rotor 3 and the pump body 5, without the need to use the sealing element, the sealing strip, the structure for supporting the outer rotor and reducing the friction is cancelled, and the cost and structural complexity are reduced.

[0067] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, an electronic oil pump comprises a pump cover 1, a driving shaft 2, a pump body 5, a motor 6, a control unit 7, and a bottom cover 8; a double-end-face oil inlet and a double-end-face oil outlet structure are arranged; the pump cover 1, the driving shaft 2, and the inner rotor 3 are in press-fit driving or flat-bit driving or spline driving.

[0068] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, the outer rotor rotating support assembly 4 is assembled in the pump body using a press-fitting or shrink-fitting process to precisely control the height distance of the outer rotor in the hydraulic cavity of the pump body, so that the outer rotor is suspended in the hydraulic cavity with an installation gap of 0-0.05 mm, and the gap is provided with an oil film, thereby reducing the friction and achieving the process expectation to keep the outer rotor in good working condition.

[0069] Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, the installation gap is 0.02 mm, and the most ideal installation and running condition is achieved.

[0070] The main part of the present application is the outer rotor ball structure, and the rotating support assembly of the outer rotor rotating support assembly adopts a bearing to form a ball bearing integrated with the outer rotor, which can be combined and separated.

[0072] Due to the need for suspension and other high-pressure environments, the pressure is about 200 bar, and the speed requirement is 1-2 W, so even a small contact will cause an increase in torque. This structure can avoid this problem; it provides mechanical efficiency and volumetric efficiency, reduces the power consumption of the motor, and at the same time improves the instantaneous response speed, the starting torque is low, the response speed is fast, and the suspension oil pump has a particularly high demand for this, reaching 1 W in 200 ms.

[0073] At the same time, the structure of double-end face oil inlet and double-end face oil outlet further reduces the hydraulic friction work, provides efficiency, and reduces torque. For example, new energy vehicles, new energy suspension supports, and aircraft lubrication.

[0074] The present application controls the distance of the outer rotor through the bearing to ensure that the upper and lower end faces do not produce friction with the pump body and the pump cover, and the oil film gap is 0.02-0.05 mm, which greatly reduces the friction.

[0075] The bearing linkage does not require the entire surface of the outer rotor to be in contact with the aluminum alloy pump body, which reduces the friction torque and saves a lot of power consumption, especially in high-speed and high-pressure conditions.

[0076] The driving shaft part of the present application can be press-fitted with the inner rotor or driven by the flat bit or spline drive of the inner rotor.

[0077] The control unit of the application can be used in 48V, 400V and 800V platforms.

[0078] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present application, and it should be pointed out that for ordinary skilled in the art, without departing from the technical principles of the present application, a number of improvements and substitutions can be made, and these improvements and substitutions should also be considered as the protection scope of the present application.
