[0002] Small motors typically refer to a type of motor with relatively low power and a compact size. The working principle of small motors is based on electromagnetic principles. Current flowing through the windings generates a magnetic field, and the rotor rotates under the influence of this magnetic field. High-efficiency operation can be achieved by increasing the power supply frequency or optimizing the motor structure (such as using high-quality magnetic materials and an optimized cooling system). Due to their high efficiency, compactness, and high performance, small motors have shown broad application prospects in many fields, including industrial automation, medical devices, aerospace, consumer electronics, and scientific research equipment.

[0003] The development trends of small motors are mainly reflected in the following aspects: high efficiency and energy saving, intelligence and digitalization, miniaturization and high power density. The prerequisite for miniaturization and high power density development lies in the continuous improvement of cooling technology for small motors. Due to the compact internal space of small motors, it is difficult to install a separate cooling device inside the motor; therefore, a passive cooling method with cooling fins on the motor casing is typically used.

[0004] In order to enhance the cooling efficiency of small motors, this invention aims to provide a small motor with an active heat dissipation structure. Utility Model Content
