[0030] The micro shield pump of the present application embodiment is improved on the basis of the traditional products described in CN220457190U and CN113790161A.

[0031] Referring to Figures 1 to 3The miniature shielded electric pump 100 includes a pump cover 200 and a pump body 300. The pump body 300 includes an impeller rotor assembly 310 and a pump shaft 313. The pump cover 200 includes a tubular outlet pipe 210 and an inlet pipe 220. A pump shaft support 230 is provided at the bottom of the inner wall of the inlet pipe 220. The pump shaft support 230 is axially limited to the impeller rotor assembly 310. The pump shaft support 230 is integrally formed with the pump cover 200. The pump shaft support 230 includes a support portion 231 and a main body portion 232. The main body portion 232 is supported at one end by the support portion 231, and the other end of the support portion 231 is connected to the bottom end of the inner wall of the water inlet pipe 220. The lower end of the main body portion 232 is provided with an axial blind hole 233. The upper end of the pump shaft 313 is inserted into the blind hole 233 and connected to it. The blind hole 233 is provided with a groove 234 (referred to as a foreign matter discharge groove) and / or a filter hole 235 that passes through it for discharging foreign matter. Specifically, the pump shaft support 230 and the impeller rotor assembly 310 are axially limited by the following: there is a gap between the annular ceramic gasket 250 installed at the port of the blind hole 233 and the upper end face of the graphite bearing 314 installed on the rotor assembly 310, thereby forming an axial limit between the pump shaft support 230 and the impeller rotor assembly 310.

[0032] When the impeller rotor assembly 310 operates at high speed, it is subjected to a reverse axial force. Since the pump shaft support 230 and the impeller rotor assembly 310 are axially limited, wear occurs at the contact surfaces, leading to the precipitation of impurities. By creating a discharge groove 234 on the sidewall of the blind hole 233 connected to the pump shaft 313, impurities can be discharged promptly, preventing accumulation within the blind hole 233 or its full accumulation affecting the rotation of the rotor 311, thereby improving the rotational efficiency and wear resistance of the rotor 311. In this embodiment, the discharge groove 234 is arranged radially. In fact, as long as it penetrates the inside and outside of the sidewall of the blind hole 233, it forms an overall radial flow structure. The centrifugal force generated by the rotational motion of the rotor assembly facilitates the discharge of the retained material, but a radially arranged flow path is the shortest and most effective.

[0033] It is understood that the foreign matter discharge groove 234 can be arranged radially along the sidewall of the blind hole 233, or it can be arranged inclined to the sidewall of the blind hole 233 in the rotational direction and / or axial direction to penetrate the inside and outside of the blind hole 233. The foreign matter discharge groove 234 of this application is preferably arranged radially along the sidewall of the blind hole 233.

[0034] Specifically, the impeller rotor assembly 310 includes a rotor 311, an impeller 312, and a graphite bearing 314, which are sequentially arranged around the outer periphery of the pump shaft 313. An annular ceramic gasket 250 is installed at the open end of the blind hole 233, and a gap is left between the inner wall of the annular ceramic gasket 250 and the outer periphery of the pump shaft 313.

[0035] When the impeller rotor assembly 310 is subjected to a reverse axial force at high speed, the end surface of the graphite bearing 314 of the impeller rotor assembly 310 and the end surface of the annular ceramic gasket 250 are abraded, thereby causing graphite powder to be precipitated, which is discharged from the foreign matter discharge groove 234.

[0036] In addition, the impeller includes a front end cover plate 315, a rear end cover plate 316 and an impeller journal 317, which are integrally formed, and the inner wall of the impeller journal 317 forms the foreign matter discharge channel 240 with the outer periphery of the pump shaft support seat 230, and the impurities discharged from the foreign matter discharge groove 234 enter the foreign matter discharge channel 240.

[0037] Reference Figures 4 to 7 The bottom of the blind hole 233 is provided with a through hole (referred to as a filter hole) 235 leading to the foreign matter discharge channel 240, which can play a filtering role. The filter hole 235 communicates the blind hole 233 and the foreign matter discharge channel 240. Since the rotor 311 is subjected to a reverse axial force at high speed, the graphite bearing 314 and the pump shaft support seat 230 are abraded, graphite powder or other impurities enter the blind hole 233, and the filter hole 235 is arranged at the bottom of the blind hole 233. Therefore, the graphite powder or other impurities can be discharged from the filter hole 235 under the reverse axial force, and then enter the foreign matter discharge channel 240, preventing the graphite powder from being accumulated in the blind hole 233, further improving the smoothness and efficiency of the rotation of the rotor 311, and avoiding the occurrence of a locked-rotor failure.

[0038] Specifically, the filter hole 235 at the bottom of the blind hole 233 has a hole diameter of 0.3-0.5mm, so that impurities smaller than 0.3 to 0.5mm can be discharged to the foreign matter discharge channel 240 through the filter hole 235.

[0039] It can be understood that the number of filter holes 235 can be set as needed, and in the present application, the number of filter holes 235 is preferably 3.

[0040] It should be noted that the foreign matter discharge groove and the filter hole can be arranged in the blind hole alone or simultaneously. When the foreign matter discharge groove and the filter hole are arranged simultaneously, the effect of discharging foreign matter is better.

[0041] Reference Figure 2 and Figure 6 The end surface of the blind hole 233 is provided with a plurality of arc-shaped bosses 236 in the circumferential direction, and the adjacent two arc-shaped bosses 236 form the foreign matter discharge groove 234, which is equivalent to grooving the hole wall of the blind hole 233 to communicate the blind hole 233 and the foreign matter discharge channel 240, thereby forming the foreign matter discharge groove 234. Therefore, the graphite powder and other impurities in the blind hole 233 can be discharged from the foreign matter discharge groove 234.

[0042] Specifically, the slot area of the foreign matter groove 234 can be set according to actual conditions. The length and width of the slot of the foreign matter groove 234 of the present application are greater than or equal to 1x1 mm. In addition, the number of foreign matter grooves 234 can be set as needed. Since the foreign matter grooves 234 are formed by the arc-shaped bosses 236, the number of arc-shaped bosses 236 is also set correspondingly. For example, the number of foreign matter grooves 234 of the present application is preferably 3, and the number of arc-shaped bosses 236 is also set to 3 correspondingly.

[0043] With reference to Figures 2 to 7 The outer wall of the arc-shaped boss 236 extends to form a first side wall 237. Between two adjacent first side walls 237, a first gap 238 is formed. A first protrusion 251 is formed on the outer peripheral wall of the annular ceramic gasket 250 and corresponds to the first gap 238. The first protrusion 251 is embedded in the first gap 238, and the arc-shaped boss 236 abuts against the annular ceramic gasket 250. The annular ceramic gasket 250 is embedded in the first gap 238 through the first protrusion 251, so that the annular ceramic gasket 250 is stably installed on the pump shaft support seat 230, and the axial size of the micro shielded electric pump 100 is more compact.

[0044] With reference to Figure 6 The first side wall 237 is formed by the outer side wall of each arc-shaped boss 236 or is formed by the partial outer walls of two adjacent arc-shaped bosses 236, so that the first gap 238 and the foreign matter groove 234 can be set as the same opening or different openings as needed.

[0045] It can be understood that the number of first gaps 238 can be set as needed, and the number of first protrusions 251 on the corresponding annular ceramic gasket 250 is also set as needed. For example, the number of first gaps 238 of the present application is preferably 3, and the number of first protrusions 251 is also set to 3 correspondingly.

[0046] With reference to Figures 2 to 7 The outer periphery of the support portion 231 is provided with a baffle plate 320 and / or a rubber ring 330 along the radial direction of the pump shaft. The baffle plate 320 is located at one end of the inner wall of the impeller journal 317 and has a gap with the inner wall of the impeller journal 317. The outer edge of the rubber ring 330 is in interference fit with the inner wall of the impeller journal 317.

[0047] Specifically, the edge of the baffle 320 and the inner wall of the impeller shaft neck 317 are left with a rotation gap of 0.3-0.5mm. Due to the running wear and process cleanliness limitation, after the automobile runs for a period of time, the entire micro shielded electric pump 100 is prone to produce plastic flash and various metal chips, the size of these impurities generally exceeds 0.5mm, and is filled in the solution of the entire micro shielded electric pump 100, thereby circulating repeatedly. The edge of the baffle 320 and the inner wall of the impeller shaft neck 317 are left with a rotation gap of only 0.3-0.5mm, and these impurities larger than 0.5mm can be blocked from entering the end face of the graphite bearing 314, thereby effectively reducing the abnormal wear of the graphite bearing 314, improving the wear resistance of the graphite bearing 314, and improving the running noise of the micro shielded electric pump 100.

[0048] On the other hand, specifically, the rubber ring 330 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the support portion 231, and the outer edge of the rubber ring 330 is interference fit with the inner wall of the impeller shaft neck 317. Therefore, the setting of the rubber ring 330 can completely block the impurities from entering the blind hole 233, thereby further improving the wear resistance of the graphite bearing 314 and prolonging the service life of the graphite bearing 314.

[0049] It can be understood that the baffle 320 and the rubber ring 330 can be selected and set, and both can be set. When the baffle 320 is set alone, it may not be able to block impurities smaller than 0.5mm, but it will not hinder the rotation of the rotor 311. When the rubber ring 330 is set alone, the impeller shaft neck 317 of the rotor 311 and the outer edge of the rubber ring 330 will produce friction, but can completely block impurities. When both are set, the impurities entering the impurity discharge channel 240 can be reduced to the maximum extent. Therefore, the baffle 320 and the rubber ring 330 can be set according to actual needs, and are not specifically limited herein.

[0050] The embodiments of the utility model are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge range possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the utility model.
