Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motors, and in particular to a rear heat dissipation structure for a speed-regulating motor. Background Technology
[0002] Speed-regulating motors are motors that change their rotational speed by altering the number of pole pairs, voltage, current, frequency, etc., to achieve higher performance. Existing technology, application number 202120651020.0, discloses a high-efficiency heat-dissipating switched reluctance motor (a type of speed-regulating motor). This patent features an axial through-hole in the stator with a heat pipe installed within it. During operation, heat is dissipated through the heat pipe, and circulating air passes through it, thus reducing the motor temperature. However, as shown in the accompanying drawings, the fan shroud at the rear of the motor is mounted on heat sinks surrounding the motor. This causes airflow from the outside of the motor to enter the fan shroud through the gap between adjacent heat sinks (see below). Figure 1 While it can achieve the same effect of cooling the motor as a whole, this structure will reduce the airflow into the heat pipe, thus reducing the heat dissipation effect of the heat pipe.

[0019] To make the technical problems, technical solutions and beneficial effects of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.
[0020] like Figure 2As shown, this embodiment discloses a rear heat dissipation structure for a speed-regulating motor. The speed-regulating motor in this embodiment is a switched reluctance motor, which includes a motor housing 1, a stator 2, a rotor 3, a rotating shaft 4, and multiple heat pipes 5. The stator 2 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the motor housing 1, and a winding is wound on the stator 2. The rotor 3 is located in the stator 2 and is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 4 and covers the rotating shaft 4. The rotating shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the motor housing 1, and the central axis of the stator 2, the central axis of the rotating shaft 4, and the central axis of the motor housing 1 coincide.
[0021] The stator 2 has multiple axial through holes along its axis; multiple heat pipes 5 are fixedly embedded in the multiple axial through holes one by one, and the two ends of the heat pipes 5 extend to the outer end face of the motor housing 1 respectively. The rotating shaft 4 passes through the rear end wall of the motor housing 1 and is connected to the cooling fan 6. A fan cover 7 is provided on the outside of the cooling fan 6. The fan cover 7 is installed on the heat sink 101 on the outer peripheral wall of the motor housing 1 by screws.
[0022] An inner cover 8 is provided in the fan cover 7. The inner cover 8 is installed on the rear end wall of the motor housing 1. The inner cover 8 covers the rear port of each heat pipe 5. A reserved hole 801 is provided on the inner cover 8 for the shaft 4 to pass through. The shaft 4 is rotatably and sealedly connected to the reserved hole 801. Sealing filler can be arranged at the contact position between the reserved hole 801 and the shaft 4. An air outlet channel 9 is provided on the outer wall of the inner cover 8. The air outlet channel 9 extends to the outside of the fan cover 7. An impeller 10 is provided in the inner cover 8. The impeller 10 is installed on the shaft 4.
[0023] The working principle of this invention is as follows: The heat generated by the motor is released through the heat sink 101. The airflow outside the motor carries the heat from the heat sink 101 and enters the area between the fan cover 7 and the inner cover 8 through the gap between two adjacent heat sinks 101. Finally, it is exhausted to the rear of the motor by the cooling fan 6. At the same time, the heat generated by the motor is transferred to the heat pipe 5. The air that can flow through the heat pipe 5 carries the heat to the inner cover 8, and finally, the hot air is exhausted through the exhaust channel 9 by the impeller 10. The impeller 10 and the cooling fan 6 work independently in different spaces and do not affect each other.
[0024] In order to facilitate airflow through the area between the fan cover 7 and the inner cover 8 to the cooling fan 6, in this embodiment, the outer edge of the inner cover 8 near the cooling fan 6 is set as a slope.
[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, the fan cover 7 includes a front section 701 and a rear section 702. The front section 701 and the rear section 702 are detachably connected. The rear section 702 has a heat dissipation hole 703 at its end. The front section 701 is mounted on the heat sink 101 on the outer peripheral wall of the motor housing 1. The air outlet channel 9 passes through the front section 701 and is fixedly connected to the front section 701.
[0026] During installation, the front section 701 of the cover is first installed on the heat sink 101 on the outer peripheral wall of the motor housing 1 with screws. Then, the inner cover 8 is installed on the rear end wall of the motor housing 1 through the opening at the rear of the front section 701. The inner cover 8 is fixed to the rear end wall of the motor housing 1 with screws. Finally, the rear section 702 of the cover is installed at the rear of the front section 701.
[0027] In this embodiment, the front section 701 and the rear section 702 of the cover are connected and fixed by screws.
[0028] In this embodiment, the outer opening of the air outlet channel 9 faces upward, and an elbow 901 is provided at the outer end of the air outlet channel 9. The elbow 901 bends towards the rear of the motor, and a protective net 902 is provided at the port of the elbow 901 to prevent foreign objects from entering the inner cover 8.
[0029] The heat pipe 5 is made of a metal with excellent thermal conductivity, which accelerates heat transfer and dissipation, ensuring the motor's operating temperature remains within the normal range. In this embodiment, the heat pipe 5 is made of copper. As is well known, copper is a metal with excellent thermal conductivity. Figure 4 As shown, to further improve the heat dissipation performance of the heat pipe 5, fins 501 are provided on the inner wall of the heat pipe 5. In this way, when the airflow flows through the inner cavity of the heat pipe 5, the contact surface with the airflow can be increased or decreased through the fins 501, thereby carrying away more heat through the airflow. The fins 501 extend axially along the inner wall of the heat pipe 5.
[0030] To prevent water and other foreign objects from entering the stator 2 and damaging the motor when used in humid environments, sealing rings can be added to both ends of the heat pipe 5. This improves the overall sealing performance at the connection between the heat pipe 5 and the motor housing 1, thereby expanding the motor's applicable environment. Additionally, to prevent foreign objects from entering the heat pipe 5, a filter screen can be placed at the front end of the heat pipe 5.
[0031] It should be noted that the motor housing 1 is mainly composed of the housing body and end caps arranged at both ends of the housing body. The motor housing 1, stator 2 and rotor 3 are all conventional technologies in the field of motors, and their detailed structure and connection relationship will not be described.
[0032] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model. Various modifications and improvements made to the technical solutions of the present utility model by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present utility model should fall within the protection scope defined by the claims of the present utility model.
