[0025] Embodiment one:

[0026] As Figure 1 shown, the embodiment provides a rotating shaft 1 of an oil-cooled motor, which has a cooling oil path structure and can realize cooling of a motor rotor and a stator winding 31. Specifically, the rotating shaft 1 has an oil inlet hole 11 formed on a radial surface thereof near one end thereof, oil outlet holes 12 formed on the radial surface thereof near a middle position thereof, and an axial flow channel 13 formed in the rotating shaft 1. An outer end of the oil inlet hole 11 is in communication with the outside of the rotating shaft 1 for oil inlet, and an inner end of the oil inlet hole 11 is in communication with the axial flow channel 13. Inner ends of the oil outlet holes 12 are in communication with the axial flow channel 13, and outer ends of the oil outlet holes 12 are in communication with the outside of the rotating shaft 1 for oil outlet, thereby forming the cooling oil path structure.

[0027] When the motor needs to be cooled, cooling oil can enter the axial flow channel 13 from the outer end of the oil inlet hole 11 and be thrown out of the oil outlet holes 12 under the action of centrifugal force, and can be thrown to components in the motor that need to be cooled, such as the stator winding 31.

[0028] Thus, the rotating shaft 1 with the cooling structure provided by the embodiment has the oil inlet hole 11 formed on the radial surface of the rotating shaft 1, and cooling oil can directly enter from the radial surface of the rotating shaft 1. Compared with the prior art, the overall oil path length is shortened, the flow resistance is reduced, the structure is simpler, and the cooling oil does not need to enter the rotating shaft 1 from the oil inlet cover of the motor and the axial end surface, thereby reducing the axial length of the motor.

[0029] As Figure 1 shown, the embodiment provides a rotating shaft 1 of an oil-cooled motor, which has a cooling oil path structure and can realize cooling of a motor rotor and a stator winding 31. Specifically, the rotating shaft 1 has an oil inlet hole 11 formed on a radial surface thereof near one end thereof, oil outlet holes 12 formed on the radial surface thereof near a middle position thereof, and an axial flow channel 13 formed in the rotating shaft 1. An outer end of the oil inlet hole 11 is in communication with the outside of the rotating shaft 1 for oil inlet, and an inner end of the oil inlet hole 11 is in communication with the axial flow channel 13. Inner ends of the oil outlet holes 12 are in communication with the axial flow channel 13, and outer ends of the oil outlet holes 12 are in communication with the outside of the rotating shaft 1 for oil outlet, thereby forming the cooling oil path structure.

[0030] Further, the embodiment is provided with two groups of oil outlet holes 12 on the rotating shaft 1, which are arranged on the front and back sides near the middle part of the rotating shaft 1 and preferably on the radial surface of the rotating shaft 1 to directly throw the cooling oil to the stator windings 31 at the two ends of the stator. The number of each group of oil outlet holes 12 can be set as required, for example, one or more, and when the number of each group of oil outlet holes 12 is more than one, the multiple oil outlet holes 12 are arranged in the circumferential direction and preferably uniformly spaced.

[0031] The rotating shaft 1 of the embodiment includes a first side shaft 14 and a second side shaft 15. The first side shaft 14 has a first opening, and the second side shaft 15 has a second opening. The first side shaft 14 and the second side shaft 15 are coaxially connected by threaded connection, welding or interference press fitting, etc. During the installation and connection, the first opening of the first side shaft 14 faces the second side shaft 15, and the second opening of the second side shaft 15 faces the first side shaft 14. Since the oil inlet hole 11 and the oil outlet hole 12 are arranged on the radial surface of the rotating shaft 1, and the axial end surface is closed, the rotating shaft 1 is designed as a split type, which facilitates the machining of the first side shaft 14 and the second side shaft 15 to form the axial flow channel 13.

[0032] Further, the embodiment is provided with two groups of oil outlet holes 12 on the rotating shaft 1, which are arranged on the front and back sides near the middle part of the rotating shaft 1 and preferably on the radial surface of the rotating shaft 1 to directly throw the cooling oil to the stator windings 31 at the two ends of the stator. The number of each group of oil outlet holes 12 can be set as required, for example, one or more, and when the number of each group of oil outlet holes 12 is more than one, the multiple oil outlet holes 12 are arranged in the circumferential direction and preferably uniformly spaced.

[0033] Further, the rotating shaft 1 also includes a oil distribution shaft 16. The first end of the oil distribution shaft 16 is connected to the first side shaft 14 by threaded connection, etc., and the opening of the first end of the oil distribution shaft 16 is in communication with the first opening of the first side shaft 14. The second end of the oil distribution shaft 16 extends into the second side shaft 15, and a oil distribution hole 161 is arranged on the second end of the oil distribution shaft 16 in the radial direction. The oil distribution hole 161 is located at the middle position between the two groups of oil outlet holes 12. The number of oil distribution holes 161 can be set as required, for example, one or more, and when the number of oil distribution holes 161 is more than one, the multiple oil distribution holes 161 are arranged in the circumferential direction and preferably uniformly spaced.

[0034] Therefore, the embodiment sets the oil distribution shaft 16, so that the cooling oil can flow to the middle position of the two groups of oil outlet holes 12 in the oil distribution shaft 16, and then be thrown out to the inner wall of the second side shaft 15 from the oil distribution hole 161 under the centrifugal force generated by the rotation of the rotating shaft 1, and then continue to move to the front and rear groups of oil outlet holes 12 along the inner wall of the second side shaft 15 under the centrifugal force, so that the cooling oil distributed at the two groups of oil outlet holes 12 is more uniform, the heat dissipation of the stator winding 31 at both ends of the stator is more uniform, and the overall heat dissipation effect is improved.

[0035] In addition, the embodiment also provides a rotor, which comprises the rotating shaft 1 as described above, and further comprises a rotor core, a dynamic balance plate and the like to cooperate with the stator to realize rotation.

[0036] In addition, the embodiment also provides a motor, which comprises the rotor as described above. The motor further comprises a stator, which comprises a stator core and a stator winding 31, and is correspondingly arranged on the radial outer side of the rotor.

[0037] Further, the motor further comprises a housing, which comprises a front end cover 41, a middle housing 42 and a rear end cover 43, and the middle housing 42 and the rear end cover 43 are formed with an oil inlet flow channel 45, one end of the oil inlet flow channel 45 is formed as an oil inlet port 44, and the other end of the oil inlet flow channel 45 is in gap cooperation with the radial rotation surface of the rotating shaft 1 provided with the oil inlet hole 11, preferably small gap cooperation. Of course, in other embodiments, the oil inlet flow channel 45 can be arranged only on the rear end cover 43, and the oil inlet port 44 is also formed on the rear end cover 43.

[0038] When the motor needs to be cooled, the cooling oil enters from the oil inlet port 44 on the middle housing 42, flows through the oil inlet flow channel 45, and then enters the first side shaft 14 from the oil inlet hole 11 on the rotating shaft 1, is thrown out to the inner wall of the second side shaft 15 from the oil distribution hole 161 on the oil distribution shaft 16 under the centrifugal force, and then continues to flow along the inner wall of the second side shaft 15 towards the front and rear groups of oil outlet holes 12 under the centrifugal force, and finally is directly thrown out from the two groups of oil outlet holes 12 to the stator winding 31 at both ends of the stator.

[0039] Further, the embodiment seals the axial outer side of the gap fit between the housing and the rotating shaft 1. Optionally, the second side shaft 15 of the embodiment is configured as a spline side shaft for transmitting power with an external connection; the first side shaft 14 is configured as a rotating variable side shaft, and one end of the rotating variable side shaft extending out of the rear end cover 43 can be rotatably installed with a rotating variable rotor (not shown in the figure), and a corresponding rotating variable stator (not shown in the figure) is installed on the rear end cover 43, thereby sealing the axial outer side of the gap fit between the rotating shaft 1 and the housing. Since the housing and the rotating shaft 1 are gap fitted in the embodiment, most of the cooling oil enters the inside of the rotating shaft 1 from the oil inlet hole 11, and only a small amount of cooling oil leaks towards the inside of the motor at the gap fit. Of course, in other embodiments, the axial outer side of the gap fit can also be sealed by setting the central part of the rear end cover 43 as an integral closed type, installing a sealing cover plate, or setting a dynamic sealing structure, etc.

[0040] The motor housing is also provided with two bearings 51 connected with the first side shaft 14 and the second side shaft 15, and an oil seal 52 is also provided for sealing. In addition, the motor housing of the embodiment can also be provided with an oil outlet (not shown in the figure) at the bottom of the front end cover 41 and / or the rear end cover 43, for example, and the cooling oil entering the inside of the motor can return to the oil tank through the oil outlet, and then be pumped into the motor from the oil inlet 44 by the oil pump, thereby realizing the circulation of the cooling oil.

[0041] As can be seen from the above, the rotating shaft, the rotor and the motor provided by the embodiment have a cooling oil passage structure, and the oil inlet hole is formed on the radial surface of the rotating shaft, compared with the prior art, the overall oil passage length is shortened, the flow resistance is reduced, the structure is simplified, and the axial length of the motor is also reduced.

[0042] Embodiment Two:

[0043] Compared with Embodiment One, the main difference of the embodiment is the different positions of the cooling oil ejection.

[0044] In Embodiment One, as shown in Figure 1 two groups of oil outlet holes 12 are provided on the rotating shaft 1, and the cooling oil is directly ejected to the stator windings 31 at both ends of the stator from the oil outlet holes 12; the path from the oil outlet holes 12 to the stator windings 31 is relatively long, and the cooling oil may not be accurately ejected to the stator windings 31, thereby affecting the cooling effect.

[0045] In the embodiment, as shown in Figure 2As shown, the two groups of oil outlet holes 12 on the rotating shaft 1 are closer to each other than in the first embodiment, and a plurality of oil throwing holes 211 are arranged on the two dynamic balance plates 21 of the rotor, with the oil throwing holes 211 corresponding to the oil outlet holes 12 on the rotating shaft 1 one by one, one end of the oil throwing hole 211 being communicated with the oil outlet hole 12, and the other end being directed towards the stator winding 31. In this way, compared with the first embodiment, the path from the oil throwing hole 211 to the stator winding 31 is shortened, and the cooling oil can be more accurately thrown onto the stator winding 31, ensuring the cooling effect. In addition, the other end of the oil throwing hole 211 can be provided as an inclined passage according to the need, so that the cooling oil can be better aligned and thrown out of each stator winding 31.

[0046] The remaining parts can be performed with reference to the first embodiment, which will not be described here.

[0047] The above is only a preferred specific embodiment of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto, and any person skilled in the art within the technical range disclosed by the present application, according to the technical scheme and the inventive concept of the present application, can make equivalent replacement or change, which should be covered within the protection scope of the present application.
