[0032] In an embodiment, referring to Figures 1 to 5 The embodiment provides a linear motor, which comprises a stator and a mover, the stator comprises a core 1, a plurality of coil windings 2, a cooling pipe 3 and a plurality of insulation structures 4.
[0033] Specifically, the core 1 comprises a yoke portion 11 and a plurality of tooth portions 12, the yoke portion 11 extends along a first direction, the plurality of tooth portions 12 are arranged on the same surface of the yoke portion 11 along the first direction, and an iron core slot 13 is formed between adjacent two tooth portions 12. The coil winding 2 comprises a plurality of coil units 21 wound on the tooth portion 12 respectively, and in the direction in which the tooth portion 12 extends from the yoke portion 11, the coil unit 21 comprises at least two layers of sub-coil units 211 spaced from each other. The cooling pipe 3 comprises a cooling section 31 winding through the tooth portion 12, and the cooling section 31 is located between adjacent sub-coil units 211 of each coil unit 21 and is in thermal contact with the adjacent sub-coil units 211. The plurality of insulation structures 4 are correspondingly coated on the sub-coil units 211 to insulate and protect the sub-coil units 211 from contacting the core 1. At least one of the opposite surfaces of the sub-coil unit 211 and the cooling section 31 is configured to have a planar extension portion, so as to reduce the gap between the sub-coil unit 211 and the cooling section 31, reduce the thermal conduction distance therebetween, and improve the cooling efficiency of the cooling pipe 3 on the coil winding 2.
[0034] It should be understood that the sub-coil unit 211 is coated with an insulating structure 4, and the heat-conducting contact between the sub-coil unit 211 and the cooling section 31 is indirect. In other alternative embodiments, the sub-coil unit 211 and the cooling section 31 can also be in direct contact, provided that insulation measures are taken. Alternatively, other heat-conducting structures can also be provided between the sub-coil unit 211 and the cooling section 31 to assist heat dissipation.
[0035] In an embodiment, referring to Fig. 1, the sub-coil unit 211 is formed by winding a flat wire. The cross-section of the flat wire is not circular, but flat and similar to a rectangle.

The contact surfaces 212 are generally flat, which increases the heat exchange area between the sub-coil unit 211 and the cooling section 31 and improves the heat dissipation efficiency of the sub-coil unit 211. Moreover, the gap between the flat wires is small or almost non-existent, which reduces the space waste in the core slot 13 and improves the slot fill factor and motor performance of the linear motor.
