[0023] The internal shell 3 is fixedly provided with a stator 6 and a rotor 7 corresponding to the stator 6; since the structure between the rotor 7 and the stator 6 in the motor is a mature prior art, which is a well-known technical means for the person skilled in the art, and thus is not described here.
[0024] The first rotating shaft 8 and the second rotating shaft 9 are respectively fixed at the two ends of the rotor 7, and the first rotating shaft 8 and the second rotating shaft 9 are respectively arranged to pass through the corresponding end plate 4 of the inner shell 3 away from the rotor 7, so as to be connected with the external structure and drive the external structure to rotate.
[0025] A plurality of heat dissipation switch assemblies 11 are arranged on the top of the circumferential wall surface of the inner shell 3, so as to guide the heat of the inner shell 3 to the outside of the inner shell 3, and then to the outside of the motor through the heat dissipation through hole 2 of the outer shell 1.
[0026] The first rotating shaft 8 is rotatably connected between the corresponding end plate 4 of the outer shell 1 away from the rotor 7, and the second rotating shaft 9 is rotatably arranged to pass through the corresponding end plate 4 of the outer shell 1 away from the rotor 7. The first rotating shaft 8 is fixedly sleeved with a fan 10 between the inner shell 3 and the outer shell 1. The fan 10 can accelerate the air flow in the outer shell 1, and can act on the heat dissipation switch assembly 11 to open the heat dissipation switch assembly 11 to dissipate heat for the inner shell 3.
[0027] The rotating connection between the first rotating shaft 8, the second rotating shaft 9, the four end plates 4 of the outer shell 1 and the inner shell 3 can be connected by bearings.

[0036] The L-shaped limiting plate 114 is fixed on the side of the hinge end of the cover plate 112 away from the conical hole 111, and is used to limit the angle of upward rotation of the cover plate 112, so as to avoid that the cover plate 112 is rotated too much upward and cannot be automatically buckled downward on the corresponding conical hole 111.
[0037] The sail plate 113 is set on one side of the top surface of the cover plate 112, and after the fan 10 stops working, the sail plate 113 is rotated to the direction close to the conical hole 111 under the action of its own gravity, that is, is automatically buckled on the conical hole 111.
[0038] In a preferred embodiment, the bottom surface of the cover plate 112 is provided with a rubber pad corresponding to the conical hole 111, which is used to cover the conical hole 111 and facilitate the sealing between the conical hole 111 and the cover plate 112, so as to avoid water vapor entering the inside of the inner shell 3 in a static state.
[0039] The working principle of the utility model is as follows:
[0040] When the motor works, the rotor 7 rotates inside the stator 6, and drives the first rotating shaft 8 and the second rotating shaft 9 to rotate, and the fan 10 on the first rotating shaft 8 rotates to provide wind power, which acts on the sail plate 113, and the sail plate 113 stores power to drive the cover plate 112 to rotate away from the corresponding conical hole 111, that is, the cover plate 112 is separated from the conical hole 111, so that the heat of the inner shell 3 is dissipated to the inside of the outer shell 1 through the conical hole 111, and then is dissipated to the outside of the motor through the heat dissipation through hole 2 on the outer shell 1, so that rapid and direct heat dissipation is realized, the heat dissipation effect is good, and the heat dissipation structure is arranged on the motor inner body, so that no other space in the washing machine is occupied.
