[0036] The technical scheme of the utility model is further illustrated below in conjunction with the drawings and through specific embodiments.

[0037] The embodiment proposes a fan, and the fan comprises an outer rotor motor. The fan is mainly used in a gas water heater, an oil smoke extractor or other equipment, which is not specifically limited here.

[0038] As shown in Figure 1 And Figure 2 The embodiment also proposes an outer rotor motor, and the outer rotor motor comprises a base body 1, an injection molded stator 2, a fan blade rotor 3, an electric control board 4, a bearing 7 and a damping pad 8. The injection molded stator 2 is installed on the base body 1, and the base body 1 and the injection molded stator 2 are integrally formed by injection molding. The fan blade rotor 3 is installed in the base body 1 through the bearing 7. The injection molded stator 2 comprises an iron core 21 and a coil 22 wound on the iron core 21. The coil 22 is connected with a pin 23. The electric control board 4 is installed in the base body 1 and is connected with the pin 23 by welding. The damping pad 8 is installed on the outer periphery of the base body 1 to reduce the vibration when the fan works. Since the fan is prior art, the specific structure and working process of the fan are not described again.

[0039] In the existing outer rotor motor, a buckle structure with a clamping position and a clamping buckle is arranged on the base, and the electric control board is installed on the base through the buckle structure. Since the protruding part (the clamping buckle head or the barb) of the clamping buckle is prone to breakage during installation, it may cause the electric control board to fail to be installed, and the reliability is low. Moreover, the protruding part of the clamping buckle abuts against the upper surface of the electric control board to press and fix the electric control board on the base, and the electrical elements of the electric control board are prone to be damaged.

[0040] To solve the above problems, as shown in Figures 3 to 5 In the outer rotor motor of the embodiment, an installation groove 11 is arranged at one end of the base 1 in the axial direction, a locking column 12 is arranged in the installation groove 11, and the pin 2 penetrates through the base 1 and extends into the installation groove 11. The electric control board 4 is installed in the installation groove 11 and sleeved on the locking column 12, and the pin 23 is welded and connected with the electric control board 4. The electric control board 4 of the outer rotor motor is installed in the installation groove 11 of the base 1, and the electric control board 4 is sleeved on the locking column 12, and the pin 23 is welded and connected with the electric control board 4. The locking column 12 and the pin 23 limit the installation plate, and no clamping buckle structure is arranged on the base 1, thereby avoiding the risk that the clamping buckle breakage causes the electric control board 4 to fail to be installed, and achieving stable installation of the installation plate in the base 1. At the same time, the locking column 12 and the pin 23 will not damage the electrical elements on the electric control board 4, thereby improving the safety of the electric control board 4, and further improving the safety and reliability of the fan.

[0041] In the embodiment, the electric control board 4 is installed in the base 1 through the above-mentioned locking column 12 and pin 23, thereby avoiding the pressure impact during the integral injection molding of the base 1, improving the reliability of the installation of the electric control board 4, and further reducing the risk of installation failure of the electric control board 4. At the same time, the electric control board 4 is convenient to disassemble and assemble from the base 1, thereby being convenient for maintenance and replacement.

[0042] Specifically, the pin 23 is integrally injection molded with the base 1, one end of the pin 23 is wound with the lead-out wire of the iron core 21 and is fixed and connected through tin soldering, the other end of the pin 23 extends into the installation groove 11 and penetrates through the preset welding hole on the electric control board 4, and then the pin 23 is welded and connected with the electric control board 4. At the same time, the electric control board 4 is provided with a relief hole and is sleeved on the locking column 12 through the relief hole, so as to achieve the limiting installation of the electric control board 4.

[0043] As shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 The bottom wall of the installation groove 11 is provided with an avoiding groove 14, one end of the locking column 12 is arranged on the bottom wall of the avoiding groove 14, and the other end of the locking column 12 extends into the installation groove 11. Through the arrangement of the avoiding groove 14, not only the material amount during the injection molding of the base 1 is reduced, but also the lightweight design of the outer rotor motor is achieved, and at the same time, the avoiding groove 14 accommodates the electrical elements installed on the electric control board 4, which is conducive to improving the protection of the electric control board 4.

[0044] As shown in Figure 3As shown, the locking column 12 includes a first column body 121, one end of the first column body 121 extends and is provided with a second column body 122, and the first column body 121 and the second column body 122 have a stepped surface 123 therebetween. The electric control board 4 is sleeved on the second column body 122 and is supported on the stepped surface 123. The diameter of the second column body 122 is smaller than that of the first column body 121, so that the locking column 12 is a stepped shaft structure, and the second column body 122 limits the electric control board 4 in the circumferential direction. At the same time, the electric control board 4 is supported by the stepped surface 123, so as to avoid tilting of the electric control board 4.

[0045] Further, the bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 is protrudingly provided with a support column 13, the top end of the support column 13 is coplanar with the stepped surface 123, and the electric control board 4 is supported on the top end of the support column 13. The bottom wall of the mounting groove 11 is protrudingly provided with a plurality of support columns 13, and the support columns 13 and the stepped surface 123 jointly support the electric control board 4, further improving the stability of the installation of the electric control board 4.

[0046] As shown in Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the outer rotor motor further includes a dust cover 5, which is coveringly arranged on the mounting groove 11 and is connected with the locking column 12 through the fastener 6. By arranging the dust cover 5, dust, water and other impurities outside the base body 1 can be prevented from entering the mounting groove 11, so as to avoid pollution or corrosion of the electric control board 4, and the safety of the electric control board 4 is improved.

[0047] Specifically, as shown in Figure 4 , the dust cover 5 includes a cover plate 51, the top end of the cover plate 51 is circumferentially and extendingly provided with an outer edge 52, the cover plate 51 is in interference fit with the mounting groove 11, and the outer edge 52 is lapped on the outer side edge of the mounting groove 11. By interference fit between the cover plate 51 and the mounting groove 11, small gaps between the cover plate 51 and the mounting groove 11 are avoided, and the sealing between the cover plate 51 and the mounting groove 11 is improved. By lapping the outer edge 52 on the outer side edge of the mounting groove 11, the dust cover 5 is limited in the height direction (up-down direction in the figure) of the base body 1, so as to avoid the dust cover 5 from exerting extrusion force on the electric control board 4 when the fastener 6 is tightened, thereby avoiding damage to the electrical elements on the electric control board 4.

[0048] Specifically, the dust cover 5 is provided with a boss 511 facing the locking column 12, and the height of the bottom end of the boss 511 is equal to the height of the upper surface of the electric control panel 4 along the height direction of the base body 1. When the screw is tightened, the bottom end of the boss 511 only contacts the surface of the electric control panel 4 and does not press the electric control panel 4 due to the existence of the outer edge 52, that is, the dust cover 5 does not exert a pressing force on the electric control panel 4, thereby avoiding damage to the electrical components on the electric control panel 4 and further improving the safety of the electric control panel 4. The boss 511 is provided with a first hole 5111, the locking column 12 is provided with a second hole 120 along the axial direction, and the fastener 6 is screwed through the first hole 5111 and the second hole 120. The locking column 12 of the embodiment is a screw column, and the fastener 6 is a screw. When the dust cover 5 is installed in the mounting groove 11, the dust cover 5 is locked in the locking column 12 by the screw to achieve stable installation of the dust cover 5. It should be noted that the head of the screw extends into the interior of the boss 511 to avoid the screw protruding from the outer surface of the dust cover 5, so as to ensure the flatness of the surface of the dust cover 5.

[0049] The boss 511 is provided to have sufficient space between the dust cover 5 and the upper surface of the electric control panel 4 to accommodate the electrical components installed on the upper surface of the electric control panel 4, thereby avoiding damage to the electric control panel 4 and further improving the protection of the electric control panel 4. Meanwhile, the electric control panel 4 and the dust cover 5 are provided with heat dissipation fins to quickly conduct the heat generated by the electric control panel 4 to the dust cover 5 and then dissipate to the outside of the base body 1, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the electric control panel 4 and being beneficial to improving the overall heat dissipation performance of the outer rotor motor and the fan. The heat dissipation fins can be heat-conducting silica gel sheets.

[0050] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the circumferential edge of the electric control panel 4 is provided with a first threading hole 41, and the circumferential edge of the dust cover 5 is provided with a second threading hole 512, the first threading hole 41 and the second threading hole 512 are communicated to form a threading channel for the power cord 42 of the electric control panel 4. The power cord 42 extends out of the base body 1 after passing through the first threading hole 41 and the second threading hole 512 in sequence, and the opening area of the first threading hole 41 and the second threading hole 512 is small, which does not affect the dustproof effect of the dust cover 5.

[0051] The above embodiments only illustrate the basic principles and characteristics of the present application, and the present application is not limited by the above embodiments. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application, and these changes and modifications all fall within the scope of the present application. The scope of protection of the present application is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
