For example, without departing from the scope of this disclosure, a first element may also be referred to as a second element, and similarly, a second element may also be referred to as a first element.
[0026] Reference Figures 1 to 6 As shown, in some embodiments, this utility model discloses a motor bracket structure with a metal inner sleeve, which includes:
[0027] Reference Figures 1 to 4 The motor bracket 100 shown has an annular bearing chamber 110, which is used to assemble other components such as the motor stator. In some embodiments, the motor bracket 100 is made of plastic.
[0028] Continue to refer to Figures 2 to 4 As shown, a metal inner sleeve 200 is fitted inside the bearing housing 110, and the metal inner sleeve 200 has an installation port 210 for fitting a bearing. By setting an annular bearing housing on the motor bracket and fitting the metal inner sleeve therein, the structure of the motor bracket is optimized, and the overall stability and durability are improved.
[0029] The aforementioned motor bracket structure consists of a metal inner sleeve encased in plastic inside the bearing housing, based on the original plastic bracket. Compared to the existing plastic motor bracket structure where the bearing housing is directly fitted with ball bearings, this structural design reduces wear on the plastic bearing housing caused by the ball bearings. Moreover, the metal inner sleeve is easier to control in terms of size and less prone to deformation than plastic, and can maintain a tight fit with the ball bearings even after long-term operation.
[0030] Continue to refer to Figure 2 As shown, the bottom end of the bearing chamber 110 is provided with a ring-shaped step 111. The bottom end of the metal inner sleeve 200 contacts the step 111. The ring-shaped step supports the metal inner sleeve 200. The ring-shaped step at the bottom end of the bearing chamber contacts the bottom end of the metal inner sleeve, which enhances the stability of the structure and reduces wear caused by poor contact.
[0031] Reference Figure 1 Combination Figure 2 As shown, the bearing housing 110 has a first extension 112 extending upwards on its surface. The outer circumference of the first extension 112 is provided with multiple reinforcing ribs 113 integrally connected to the inner bottom surface of the motor bracket 100. The design of the first extension and reinforcing ribs on the bearing housing surface enhances the structural strength of the motor bracket and improves its load-bearing capacity. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the bottom end of the bearing housing 110 is provided with a second extension 114. The cross-sectional thickness of the second extension 114 is greater than the thickness of the first extension 112. Similarly, the cross-sectional thickness of the second extension is greater than that of the first extension, which improves the durability and impact resistance of the motor bracket.
[0032] Continue to refer to Figure 2 Combination Figure 6 As shown, the outer ring of the metal inner sleeve 200 has at least one protrusion 220, and the protrusion 220 and other parts of the outer ring of the metal inner sleeve 200 respectively cooperate and abut against the inner ring of the bearing chamber 110. (Continue referring to...) Figure 6 As shown, specifically, the protrusions 220 are densely and vertically distributed on the outer ring of the metal inner sleeve 200, forming a straight-knurled shape. The protrusions 220 are spaced apart on the outer ring of the metal inner sleeve 200, and grooves 230 are provided on the outer ring of the metal inner sleeve 200 between adjacent protrusions 220. A pair of protrusions 220 and grooves 230 respectively cooperate and abut against the inner ring of the bearing chamber 110. If the motor bracket is made of plastic, and the metal inner sleeve with a ring of protrusions is plastic-coated, preferably the protrusions are in the shape of straight-knurled lines on the outer ring, the fit between the motor bracket and the metal inner sleeve is more stable.
[0033] In some embodiments, the metal inner sleeve 200 is made of aluminum alloy or brass, which improves the strength and corrosion resistance of the metal inner sleeve, and allows for the selection of appropriate materials based on cost and performance requirements.
