[0028] This utility model provides a brushless direct-drive angle grinder, as described in the reference. Figure 1 It includes the head 1, handle 2, left housing 31 and right housing 32.
[0029] Handle 2 is for user gripping. Handle 2 includes two ends. The head 1 is fixedly connected to one end of handle 2. A motor is installed inside the head 1. (Refer to...) Figure 2 .
[0030] The left housing 31 and the right housing 32 are fixedly connected to each other, forming an internal cavity for accommodating the control circuit. After the left housing 31 and the right housing 32 are connected, they are further fixedly connected to the other end of the handle 2.
[0031] The head 1 and handle 2 can be fixed together by screws. The head 1 has a motor cavity 13 for accommodating the motor. (Refer to...) Figure 3 and Figure 4 The inner peripheral wall of the motor cavity 13 is preferably in the form of a circular hole, which is used to form a tight fit with the outer periphery of the stator 51 of the motor. That is, the inner peripheral wall of the motor cavity 13 forms the outer wall of the motor, providing excellent heat conduction from the motor to the motor head 1.
[0032] Reference Figure 5The motor also includes a rotor 52, which passes through the center of the stator 51. The rotor 52 includes a motor shaft, on which a magnet sleeve is fixedly fitted. Multiple magnets 521 are fixedly installed on the magnet sleeve. The multiple magnets 521 are exposed on the outer periphery of the rotor 52. The magnets 521 are distributed in a ring array around the motor shaft. In this embodiment, preferably, the number of magnets 521 is set to six, so as to form a six-level magnet 521 in the circumferential direction of the rotor 52. By exposing the magnets 521, the gap between them and the inner periphery of the stator 51 is reduced, so as to reasonably enhance the torque formed by the rotor 52 and the stator 51. One axial end of the motor shaft passes through the outside of the head 1 and is provided with external or internal threads for connecting with the tool head of the angle grinder. The tool head of the angle grinder includes cutting discs, grinding discs, flap wheels, wire wheels, etc.
[0033] Reference Figure 6 The stator 51 is composed of multiple laminations 511 spliced together. The laminations 511 have an I-shaped structure. Each lamination 511 has an independent winding in the middle. The multiple laminations 511 are distributed along a ring array to form a ring stator 51 structure. Each lamination 511 has a retaining strip and a retaining groove at its front and rear ends in the circumferential direction, which are used to form a retaining engagement with the adjacent laminations 511 to ensure accurate positioning between each lamination 511 and a stable structure when the stator 51 is assembled.
[0034] One end of the stator 51 along the axial direction is also provided with a circuit board 512 and a protective sleeve. The circuit board 512 has a ring structure and is distributed along the outer periphery of the stator 51. Each winding on the lamination 511 has an externally led pin, so that the pin of each winding is electrically connected to the circuit board 512. Thus, all the windings of the stator 51 are connected through the circuit board 512. The protective sleeve is fitted on the circuit board 512 to form protection.
[0035] The outer periphery of the head 1 forms a front wall 11 and a rear wall 12, wherein the rear wall 12 is positioned facing the handle 2, and a fan 4 is provided between the handle 2 and the head 1. The fan 4 is fixedly connected to the head 1 by screws, or the fan 4 is fixedly connected to the handle 2 by screws. The fan 4 blows air toward the rear wall 12 to dissipate heat from the rear wall 12.
[0036] Air outlets 14 are provided on the left and right sides of the head unit 1, and the air outlets 14 are connected to the rear wall 12 of the head unit. The fan 4 blows air directly onto the rear wall 12 of the head unit, and the airflow is further blown outward along the air outlets 14.
[0037] The handle 2 has a channel, one end of which forms a connecting opening toward the rear wall 12 of the machine head. The handle 2 can be provided with an air inlet that connects the channel to the outside of the handle 2, so that the airflow required by the fan 4 can be generated by the outside air flowing into the channel through the air inlet.
[0038] Furthermore, the other end of the channel can also be configured to communicate with the internal cavity formed by the left housing 31 and the right housing 32. The air inlet can also be set on the left housing 31 or the right housing 32, so that the airflow can enter the internal cavity through the air inlet and then enter the channel, and simultaneously dissipate heat from the control circuit.
[0039] It should be added that the head 1 is also equipped with a self-locking part 15, and the motor shaft is equipped with a locking groove for the end of the self-locking part 15 to be engaged. When the self-locking part 15 is engaged in the locking groove, the motor shaft can be locked. The handle 2 is also equipped with a switch 21, which is located on the side of the handle 2 near the head 1, and is used to switch the working state of the angle grinder.
[0040] Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without inventive effort should fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
