[0020] Multiple oil-limiting grooves 21 with smooth, arc-shaped walls are provided on the cavity wall of the rear cavity. Multiple branch pipes are provided on the oil pipe 10 at the positions of the multiple oil-limiting grooves 21. The multiple branch pipes are located in the multiple oil-limiting grooves 21.

The front shell 1 and the end cover 15 are two independent components. The end cover 15 is used to encapsulate the input shaft 13, and the front shell 1 is used to connect with external components. The front shell 1 is connected to the flange 26. The front shell 1 can be adapted and replaced according to the structural requirements of different power systems. Replacing the front shell 1 does not damage the overall structure of the motor or affect the sealing performance of the overall structure of the motor. The set of a matchable and replaceable front shell 1 improves the adaptability of the motor to different power systems.
[0024] The motor shaft 11 has an oil passage 29 along its axis in the middle, and the input shaft 13 has an oil passage 30 along its axis. The oil passage 29 and the oil passage 30 are sealed and connected. Multiple radial oil passages are opened on the input shaft 13, which connect the oil passage 30 and the front cavity. A gear pump 28 is fixedly installed at the tail end of the motor shaft 11 away from the input shaft 13. The oil outlet of the gear pump 28 is sealed and connected to the oil passage 29. When the gear pump 28 operates, it pumps lubricating oil through the oil passage 29, the oil passage 30 and the radial oil passages to the front cavity to provide lubrication for the planetary gear set 4. When the level of the oil in the front cavity that provides lubrication for the planetary gear set 4 reaches the oil level hole 17, and there is excess oil in the front cavity, the excess oil will flow naturally into the rear cavity from the oil level hole 17.
