Detailed Implementation
[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0024] Example: See Figures 1 to 6 A heat dissipation structure for a hub drive device includes a housing and a drive motor 1. The drive motor 1 is located inside the housing and includes a stator housing, a rotor, and a motor shaft. Both ends of the motor shaft are rotatably connected to the stator housing, with one end extending out of the stator housing. In practice, the end of the motor shaft extending out of the stator housing is connected to the stator housing via a sealed bearing (a bearing with an oil seal). As one embodiment, the drive motor 1 is a permanent magnet motor, with coil windings installed inside the stator housing and permanent magnets installed on the rotor.
[0025] One end of the motor shaft extending out of the stator housing is connected to a drive gear 2. A reduction gear set is provided on one side of the drive gear 2. The reduction gear set is connected to the stator housing via a reduction shaft 4, wherein one end of the reduction shaft 4 is connected to the stator housing, and the other end is connected to the stator housing via a third support frame 12. The reduction gear set includes a reduction input gear 31 and a reduction transmission gear 32, wherein the reduction input gear 31 meshes with the drive gear 2. A first support frame 5 is fixedly connected to one end of the stator housing near the drive gear 2, and a second support frame is fixedly connected to the other end, wherein the first support frame 5 is located on the side of the drive gear 2 away from the stator housing. A first support shaft 7 and a second support shaft 8 are respectively provided on the first support frame 5 and the second support frame, respectively, extending from both ends of the housing and rotatably connected to the housing. The first support shaft 7 is also connected to the housing via a sealed bearing. The first support frame 5 has a cylindrical structure and covers the drive gear 2, with its open end folded outward to form a connecting flange, through which it is connected to the stator housing. The first support frame 5, located near the reduction gear set, has a notch formed on its side. The reduction input gear 31 extends into the first support frame 5 through this notch and meshes with the drive gear 2. The first support shaft 7 is connected to the closed end of the first support frame 5. The second support frame includes a support ring 61 and a support plate 62, with a gap between the support plate 62 and the end face of the stator housing. The second support shaft 8 is connected to the support plate 62. The support ring 61 penetrates the housing and is rotatably connected to the housing through a sealed bearing. In implementation, a wire hole is provided on the support plate 62, through which the wire of the drive motor 1 extends, and a sealing plug is provided between the wire and the wire hole.
[0026] A reduction output gear is rotatably mounted on the first support shaft 7. This reduction output gear is a double gear, comprising a reduction driven gear 91 and a power output gear 92. The driving gear 2 is connected to the reduction driven gear 91 via a reduction gear set. The reduction transmission gear 32 meshes with the reduction driven gear 91. Inside the housing, a driven gear ring 11 is provided corresponding to the position of the power output gear 92. This driven gear ring 11 is mounted on the power output gear 92 and meshes with it.
[0027] The housing is filled with cooling oil (usually engine oil). A filling hole with a filler plug is also provided on the housing for easy addition and replacement of cooling oil. By filling with cooling oil, the heat generated by the drive motor 1 can be quickly transferred to the housing for heat dissipation; this improves the operational stability of the drive motor 1 and gears, significantly reduces the failure rate of the drive motor 1, and extends its service life. Simultaneously, the oil also lubricates the gears, reducing wear between them and extending the overall lifespan of the drive unit.
[0028] Several baffles are arranged around the inner wall of the outer casing, with gaps between the baffles and the stator housing. This allows the cooling oil to rotate and flow when the outer casing rotates, resulting in more uniform oil temperature and better heat conduction. In implementation, the outer casing includes a first housing 101 and a second housing 102 connected together, with baffles arranged on the inner sides of both housings. The baffles on the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are staggered. Adjacent sides of the first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are folded outwards to form annular connecting discs. The first housing 101 and the second housing 102 are connected by two connecting discs, with a sealing ring between them. The two connecting discs are fitted together to form a connecting flange for connection to the hub.
[0029] On the end face where the stator housing is connected to the second support frame, there are several guide grooves (arranged radially along the end face of the stator housing) distributed around it, and the guide grooves extend from the inner side of the support ring 61 to the outer side of the support ring 61. In this way, the cooling oil flows better, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect.
[0030] During operation, the coil windings are energized, driving the rotor to rotate. The rotor then drives the motor shaft, which in turn drives the drive gear 2. The drive gear 2, via a reduction gear set, drives the reduction output gear. Through the engagement of the reduction output gear and the driven gear ring 11, power (torque) is output to the outer casing, causing it to rotate. Thus, after this drive unit is assembled with the frame (rear fork) and wheel hub, it is supported by two support shafts, and the outer casing drives the wheel hub to rotate, propelling the two-wheeled vehicle. Filling the outer casing with cooling oil quickly transfers the heat from the drive motor 1 to the casing, achieving heat dissipation. When the casing rotates, the baffles on the inner side of the casing cause the cooling oil to flow, resulting in a more uniform oil temperature and effectively improving heat dissipation.
[0031] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model and not to limit the technical solutions. Those skilled in the art should understand that any modifications or equivalent substitutions to the technical solutions of this utility model that do not depart from the spirit and scope of this technical solution should be covered within the scope of the claims of this utility model.
