Description

[0002] Marine propulsion systems are classified into main propulsion systems and lateral thrust systems based on the direction of propulsion. Lateral thrust systems are primarily marine lateral propulsion devices; those installed at the bow of the hull are called bow thrusters, and those installed at the stern are called stern thrusters.

[0003] Generally, most ships are equipped with bow thrusters, while some also have stern thrusters. Bow thrusters are widely used as auxiliary maneuvering devices in port. Their specific applications in ship maneuvering include controlling lateral movement during berthing and unberthing, adjusting course at low speeds in waterways, and suppressing bow deflection during reversing.

[0004] Marine thruster motors, as the power unit in a ship's thrusting system, play a crucial role in power conversion, output, transformation, and transmission, and are essential for the reliable operation of the ship. Due to the long-term operation of ships in the marine or near-shore environment, and the limitations of ship load and hull space, marine thruster motors require moisture-resistant, mildew-proof, and corrosion-resistant winding insulation, simple and efficient cooling methods, compact overall structure, light weight, low vibration and noise, and high reliability. However, existing marine thruster motors have relatively poor heat dissipation performance, failing to achieve the expected cooling effect.

[0005] In conclusion, improving the heat dissipation of marine side thrust motors is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0029] The core of this utility model is to provide a marine side thrust motor. This motor uses a total of three air ducts to completely cool the internal and external parts of the stator and rotor core assembly, resulting in excellent temperature rise control and improved motor capacity.

[0030] Another core aspect of this invention is to provide a ship propulsion device that includes the aforementioned marine side thruster motor.

[0031] It should be noted that the orientation or positional relationship indicated by terms such as "upper", "lower", "front", and "rear" is based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings and is only for the purpose of facilitating the description of this application and simplifying the description. It is not intended to indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this application.

[0032] This application provides a marine side thruster motor, comprising: a stator and rotor core assembly 4 and a heat dissipation component;

[0033] The stator and rotor core assembly 4 is located inside the motor body 3. The stator and rotor core assembly 4 is provided with core pressure plates 5 at both ends. The core pressure plates 5 are provided with vent holes. The stator and rotor core assembly 4 is provided with ventilation channels and ventilation holes 8 inside. The ventilation holes are connected to the ventilation channels.

[0034] A heat dissipation component is provided on the motor body 3. The motor body 3 has a ventilation port. The heat dissipation component is used to accelerate the airflow inside the motor body 3, thereby achieving heat dissipation inside the motor body 3.

[0035] Specifically, the motor has a vertical shaft extension and downward flange mounting structure. The stator and rotor core assembly 4 is a tubular structure, and the motor body 3 is a hollow shell. The stator and rotor core assembly 4 is housed inside the motor body 3. A transverse air gap is provided on the stator and rotor core assembly 4 for gas flow. Vertically arranged ventilation channels are provided on the outer peripheral sidewalls of the stator and rotor core assembly 4. Circumferentially arranged ventilation holes 8 are also provided on the sidewalls of the stator and rotor core assembly 4. A heat dissipation assembly is located on the lower interior side of the motor body 3. This heat dissipation assembly can extract heated gas from the motor body 3 and can also adjust the heat dissipation according to the motor's power rating. By increasing the gas flow rate, the stator and rotor core assembly 4 is cooled down through three air ducts during the gas flow process. One air duct is where the gas enters the ventilation duct through the vents on the core pressure plate 5 and is finally discharged by the heat dissipation component. The second air duct passes directly through the air gap in the middle of the stator and rotor core assembly 4 and is discharged by the heat dissipation component. The third air duct passes through the air gap channel through the ventilation holes 8 on the stator and rotor core assembly 4 and is finally discharged outside the motor body 3 by the heat dissipation component. The three air ducts, together with the heat dissipation component, can completely cool down the inside and outside of the stator and rotor core assembly 4, resulting in excellent motor temperature rise control and improved motor capacity.

[0036] Based on the above embodiments, the stator and rotor core assembly 4 includes a stator core and a rotor core. Both ends of the stator core and the rotor core are provided with core pressure plates 5. Support ribs are evenly arranged on the inner circumference of the stator core. Multiple ventilation holes are evenly distributed on the core pressure plate 5. Ventilation holes 8 are provided inside the rotor core.

[0037] Specifically, the stator core, rotor core, and air gap are fitted together to form the motor magnetic circuit. The stator core and rotor core are provided with core pressure plates 5, which are annular plates. The front and rear pressure plates and the core are welded and pressed together by circumferentially distributed support ribs. The core pressure plates 5 are provided with a total of 16 vent holes with a diameter of 25mm. Ventilation holes 8 are provided on the rotor core to increase airflow and improve heat dissipation.

[0038] Based on the above embodiments, the heat dissipation assembly includes a main centrifugal fan 2. The blades of the main centrifugal fan 2 are straight blades that can rotate in both directions to blow air. The main centrifugal fan 2 is used to dissipate heat from the stator and rotor core assembly 4.

[0039] Specifically, please refer to the attached diagram. The main centrifugal fan 2 is located inside the motor body 3 at the bottom. The main centrifugal fan 2 draws the air out of the motor body 3, improving the airflow inside the motor body 3. The main centrifugal fan 2 is a bidirectional rotating straight blade fan with 19 blades. The blades extend downwards to the root. The bottom surface of the fan blades is at an angle of 53° to the horizontal, and the lower part of the fan blades is at an angle of 100° to the fan blade support surface. The transition radius between the fan blades and the upper guide cover is R40.

[0041] Specifically, the frame serves as the base of the motor body 3, and multiple ventilation windows are provided on the motor body 3. The ventilation windows allow air to circulate between the inside and outside of the motor body 3. The front cover and the rear cover are detachably connected to the frame. After the front cover and the rear cover are removed, it is convenient to install, disassemble, clean and maintain the components inside the frame. When the front cover and the rear cover are installed on the frame, they can prevent dust and moisture from falling directly onto the stator and rotor core assembly 4.

[0042] Based on the above embodiment, an axial fan 6 is also provided inside the motor body 3. The axial fan 6 is located on the side of the stator and rotor core assembly 4 away from the main centrifugal fan 2 and is corresponding to the ventilation hole 8 of the rotor core.

[0043] Specifically, ventilation holes 8 are located on the outer periphery of the rotor core. An axial fan 6 is positioned above the rotor core, working in conjunction with the main centrifugal fan 2. Cooling air enters the motor from the non-shaft extension end. Driven by the main centrifugal fan 2 at the shaft extension end and the auxiliary axial fan 6 at the non-shaft extension end, the cooling air enters the ventilation holes 8, the circumferential ventilation holes 8 on the outer side of the stator pressure plate, and the stator-rotor air gap. The cooling air entering the ventilation holes 8 passes through the segmented ventilation channels inside the rotor core, through the stator-rotor air gap, and into the segmented ventilation channels inside the stator core, providing ventilation and cooling to the inside of the motor's stator and rotor cores. Part of the cooling air passing through the air gap enters the stator core ventilation channels along with the rotor ventilation air, while some passes directly through the core into the shaft extension end. Additionally, the cooling air passing through the circumferential ventilation holes 8 on the outer side of the stator pressure plate passes directly over the outer surface of the core, working in conjunction with the rotor ventilation air and the air gap ventilation air to cool the outer surface of the stator core.

[0044] Based on the above embodiment, the two ends of the stator and rotor core assembly 4 are the shaft extension end and the non-shaft extension end, respectively. The main centrifugal fan 2 is located at the shaft extension end, and the shaft extension end is also provided with a front bearing assembly 1, which includes a deep groove ball bearing.

[0045] Specifically, the front bearing assembly 1 is equipped with a deep groove ball bearing and a mechanical seal system. The design of deep groove ball bearings is relatively simple and the manufacturing cost is low. At the same time, it is also easy to achieve high manufacturing precision. Deep groove ball bearings can withstand radial and axial loads at the same time and provide strong support force.

[0046] Based on the above embodiment, the non-shaft extension end is provided with a rear bearing assembly 7, which includes a thrust contact bearing and a deep groove ball bearing mounted in parallel, with a partition between the thrust contact bearing and the deep groove ball bearing.

[0047] Specifically, the rear bearing assembly 7 uses a thrust contact bearing and a deep groove ball bearing mounted side by side. The thrust contact bearing bears the axial force, while the deep groove ball bearing bears the radial force. A 2mm thick partition is added between the two bearing structures.

[0048] Based on the above embodiment, the ventilation duct is divided into two parts. The two ventilation ducts are respectively arranged inside the rotor core and the stator core, and the two ventilation ducts are arranged correspondingly. The width of the ventilation duct of the rotor core is 2 to 4 mm wider than the width of the ventilation duct of the stator core.

[0049] Specifically, the width of the segmented ventilation channel of the rotor core is 2-4mm wider than that of the stator core ventilation channel. The core has core pressure plates at the front and rear. The front pressure plate is sealed without ventilation holes, while the rear core pressure plate has ventilation holes with the same shape as the core laminations.

[0050] Based on the above embodiments, both the stator core and the rotor core are provided with windings, and the surface of the windings is provided with an anti-corrosion layer.

[0051] Specifically, the winding adopts a high-reliability flat copper wire forming winding, the insulation system adopts high mica reinforced insulation and vacuum pressure impregnation, and the winding ends are sprayed with moisture-resistant and mildew-proof paint to improve the service life of the equipment.
