[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motor technology, specifically to a high-efficiency air-cooled permanent magnet motor. Background Technology

[0002] In modern industrial production and daily life, electric motors, as key equipment for energy conversion, directly affect the operating performance and energy consumption levels of various mechanical devices. Permanent magnet motors, with their advantages of high efficiency, high power density, low noise, and good stability, have been widely used in many fields. However, with the increase in motor power and the diversification of working environments, the problem of motor heat dissipation has become increasingly prominent, becoming one of the key factors restricting further performance improvements.

[0003] Traditional permanent magnet motors typically employ natural cooling or simple air cooling. These methods are often insufficient to meet the cooling requirements of motors operating at high power density and for extended periods of continuous operation. Excessive operating temperature not only reduces motor efficiency but also accelerates the aging of internal components, shortens the motor's lifespan, and may even pose safety hazards.

[0004] Therefore, developing a permanent magnet motor with efficient heat dissipation capabilities is particularly important. By optimizing the motor's structural design and adopting more advanced heat dissipation technologies, such as enhancing air cooling and making reasonable use of the motor's internal space for heat exchange, the motor's heat dissipation performance can be effectively improved. This ensures that the motor maintains stable operation even under high-power, high-density working environments, extends the motor's service life, and improves the motor's overall performance and reliability.

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] This utility model provides a high-efficiency air-cooled permanent magnet motor, such as Figures 1-3 As shown, the motor includes a housing 1, inside which a rotor 2 is installed. A permanent magnet 5 is mounted on the outer wall of the rotor 2. A stator 3 is mounted on the inner wall of the housing 1. A heat dissipation assembly 9 is mounted at one end of the housing 1, and heat dissipation fins 11 are mounted on the outer wall of the housing 1. The heat dissipation assembly 9 includes a housing 91, inside which fan blades 92 are installed. The fan blades 92 are fixed to a fan blade shaft 93, and one end of the fan blade shaft 93 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the housing 91 via a bearing. When the rotor 2 inside the motor rotates, the permanent magnet 5 mounted on its outer wall interacts with the stator 3 on the inner wall of the housing 1, generating electromagnetic force to drive the motor to rotate. Simultaneously, one end of the rotor 2 drives the fan blade shaft 93 to rotate, thereby causing the fan blades 92 to rotate at high speed within the housing 91, forming a strong airflow. This airflow directly blows onto the outer wall of the housing 1 and the heat dissipation fins 11, effectively carrying away the heat generated during motor operation, greatly improving heat dissipation efficiency, and ensuring the stability and reliability of the motor under high load and long-term operation.

[0024] The ingenious combination of the housing 91 of the heat dissipation component 9 with the fan blades 92 and the fan blade shaft 93, as well as the bearing rotation connection between the fan blade shaft 93 and the inner wall of the housing 91, not only ensures the smooth operation of the cooling fan, but also reduces the heat and noise generated by friction, thereby improving the overall performance and service life of the motor.

[0025] The heat dissipation fins 11 installed on the outer wall of the housing 1 are arranged in a ring with equal spacing, which greatly increases the heat dissipation area, allowing heat to be transferred to the surrounding environment more quickly and evenly, and further improving the heat dissipation effect of the motor.

[0026] The entire heat dissipation component 9 is compactly integrated with the main motor structure, saving space and facilitating installation and maintenance. Furthermore, the independent design of the heat dissipation component allows for easy replacement or repair when needed, reducing motor maintenance costs.

[0027] In this embodiment, a rotating shaft 8 is installed at one end of the rotor 2, and the end of the rotating shaft 8 extends out of the housing 1. This facilitates connection with external equipment or transmission mechanisms, enabling flexible connection between the motor and other mechanical components, and enhancing the versatility and applicability of the motor.

[0028] Specifically, an end cover 7 is installed at the end of the housing 1 furthest from the heat dissipation component 9. This protects the internal parts of the motor from external dust, moisture, and other impurities, improving the motor's sealing and protection level. At the same time, the end cover 7 facilitates internal inspection and maintenance of the motor, ensuring its long-term stable operation.

[0029] Furthermore, a junction box 6 is installed on the top of the housing 1. The junction box 6 makes the electrical connections of the motor more centralized and standardized, facilitating wiring and maintenance. It effectively protects the internal electrical components of the motor, preventing electrical faults caused by improper wiring or external factors, thus improving the safety and reliability of the motor.

[0030] Furthermore, the heat dissipation fins 11 are arranged in a ring at equal intervals on the outer wall of the housing 1. This arrangement allows the heat dissipation fins 11 to fully utilize the outer surface of the housing 1 for heat dissipation, increasing the heat dissipation area and improving heat dissipation efficiency. At the same time, the ring-shaped equal interval arrangement also ensures the uniformity of heat dissipation, avoids local overheating, and helps extend the service life of the motor.

[0031] Furthermore, one end of the fan blade shaft 93 is driven by the rotor 2. This design enables synchronous operation of the motor rotation and the cooling fan, eliminating the need for an additional power source and reducing energy consumption. Simultaneously, the rotor 2 directly drives the fan blade shaft 93 to rotate, ensuring efficient and stable operation of the cooling fan and improving the overall performance of the motor.

[0032] Furthermore, an air inlet 913 is provided on the outer side of the outer casing 91. Inside the air inlet 913, an air inlet dust filter 94, a water baffle 95, and an air supply channel 96 are installed sequentially. The design of the air inlet 913 ensures that the cooling fan has sufficient airflow, while the air inlet dust filter 94 effectively blocks dust and other impurities from entering the motor, protecting the cleanliness of the motor. The combined use of the water baffle 95 and the air supply channel 96 prevents moisture from entering the motor and ensures smooth airflow, improving the heat dissipation effect.

[0033] Furthermore, the surface of the baffle plate 95 is provided with several air inlet channels, which are inclined, while the air supply channel 96 is horizontal. The top of the air inlet channel is connected to the air supply channel 96. An air outlet 911 is provided on the side of the outer shell 91 away from the air inlet 913. The air outlet 911 has a ring structure, and its outer side is aligned with the heat dissipation fins 11. An air outlet dustproof net 912 is installed on the inner wall of the air outlet 911. The inclined air inlet channel design helps guide airflow into the air supply channel 96 at a more optimized angle, improving airflow efficiency. The horizontally positioned air supply channel 96 ensures uniform airflow distribution inside the motor, enhancing heat dissipation. The ring structure of the air outlet 911, aligned with the heat dissipation fins 11, allows airflow to directly blow onto the heat dissipation fins 11, further improving heat dissipation efficiency. The air outlet dustproof net 912 installed on the inner wall of the air outlet 911 effectively prevents dust and other impurities from entering the external environment of the motor when discharged with the airflow, maintaining the cleanliness of the motor.

[0034] When the high-efficiency air-cooled permanent magnet motor of this invention is in use, the internal rotor 2 starts to rotate when the motor is started. The permanent magnet 5 installed on its outer wall interacts with the stator 3 on the inner wall of the housing 1, generating a strong electromagnetic force, thereby driving the motor to rotate. In this process, the rotor 2 not only realizes the power output of the motor, but also transmits rotational power through the rotating shaft 8 installed at one end (the end of the rotating shaft 8 extends out of the housing 1 for easy connection with external equipment).

[0035] Simultaneously, the rotation of rotor 2 also drives the rotation of fan blade shaft 93. One end of fan blade shaft 93 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of housing 91 via bearings, ensuring smooth rotation and low noise. The rotation of fan blade shaft 93 then drives fan blade 92 to rotate at high speed inside housing 91, forming a strong airflow. Guided by housing 91, this airflow directly blows onto the outer wall of housing 1 and the annularly spaced heat dissipation fins 11, effectively carrying away the heat generated during motor operation.

[0036] The heat dissipation component 9 is particularly ingeniously designed, with an air inlet 913 and an air outlet 911 on its outer casing 91. Inside the air inlet 913, a dust filter 94, a water baffle 95, and an air delivery channel 96 are installed sequentially, ensuring sufficient airflow while effectively preventing the intrusion of dust and moisture. The inclined air inlet channel design on the surface of the water baffle 95 optimizes the airflow entry angle and improves circulation efficiency. The horizontally positioned air delivery channel 96 ensures uniform airflow distribution within the motor.

[0037] The air outlet 911 has a ring-shaped structure and is aligned with the heat dissipation fins 11, allowing the airflow to directly and efficiently blow onto the heat dissipation fins 11, further improving the heat dissipation effect. The air outlet dust filter 912 installed on the inner wall of the air outlet 911 effectively prevents dust and other impurities from polluting the external environment of the motor when they are discharged with the airflow.

[0038] The entire heat dissipation process is synchronized with the motor's operation, requiring no additional power source and reducing energy consumption. Furthermore, the compact integration of the heat dissipation component 9 with the motor's main structure not only saves space but also facilitates installation, maintenance, and replacement, reducing motor maintenance costs.

[0039] Finally, it should be noted that the electronic components in the junction box 6 and other components in this embodiment are all general standard parts or parts known to those skilled in the art. Their structure and principle can be known to those skilled in the art through technical manuals or conventional experimental methods.
