[0009] In the above technical solution, a mating groove is formed at the first fixed edge of the pump casing component; a mating rib is formed at the second fixed edge of the pump cover component; the mating rib of the pump cover component is inserted into the mating groove of the pump casing component, and the mating rib of the pump cover component is fixed in the mating groove of the pump casing component.
[0010] In the above technical solution, an ultrasonic line is provided at the end face of the mating rib of the pump cover component; the mating rib of the pump cover component is fixed in the mating groove of the pump casing component by ultrasonic welding.
[0011] In the above technical solution, a positioning rib is provided at the first fixed edge of the pump casing component; a positioning groove matching the positioning rib is provided at the second fixed edge of the pump cover component.
[0012] An electronic water pump includes the aforementioned electronic water pump housing structure.
[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The electronic water pump housing structure and the electronic water pump using the present utility model have a first fixing edge of the pump housing component and a second fixing edge of the pump cover component that are fixed to each other in the axial direction to form a sealing structure. This eliminates the need for screws and clips to assemble the pump cover component and the pump housing component, and also eliminates the need to install a sealing ring, thus saving the assembly process of the electronic water pump and reducing the overall cost of the electronic water pump. In addition, it avoids the problem of liquid medium leakage caused by the failure of the sealing ring, and improves the sealing performance, stability and service life of the electronic water pump.

[0021] The pump housing component 1 is a semi-shell component made of engineering plastic and is integrally injection molded, which is used to provide a structural support foundation for the electronic water pump housing structure of this embodiment. The pump cover component 2 is a cover-shaped component made of engineering plastic and is integrally injection molded.
[0022] A rotor chamber is formed within the pump casing component 1. The rotor chamber is a cavity structure integrally formed with the pump casing component 1.
[0023] An impeller chamber is formed on the inner side of the pump cover component 2. In addition, an inlet 24 and an outlet 25 are formed on the pump cover component 2, which connect the inner and outer sides of the impeller chamber. Specifically, the impeller chamber is a cavity on the inner side of the pump cover component 2. The inlet 24 and the outlet 25 are both short tubular structures integrally formed on the pump cover component 2.
[0024] The pump housing component 1 extends outward along its radial direction to form a first fixed edge 11. In fact, the first fixed edge 11 is integrally injection molded with the pump housing component 1 and protrudes outward along the radial direction from the pump housing component 1 to form a ring structure.
[0025] The pump cover component 2 extends outward along its radial direction to form a second fixed edge 21. In fact, the second fixed edge 21 is integrally injection molded with the pump cover component 2 and protrudes outward along the radial direction from the pump cover component 2 to form a ring structure.
[0026] The first fixing edge 11 of the pump casing component 1 and the second fixing edge 21 of the pump cover component 2 are fixed to each other in the axial direction to form a sealing structure.
[0027] Specifically, a mating groove 12 is formed at the first fixing edge 11 of the pump housing component 1. In fact, the mating groove 12 is integrally injection molded with the first fixing edge 11 and has an annular concave structure. A mating rib 22 is formed at the second fixing edge 21 of the pump cover component 2. In fact, the second fixing edge 21 is integrally injection molded with the pump housing component 1 and protrudes outward from the pump housing component 1 along the axial direction to form an annular structure. The mating rib 22 of the pump cover component 2 is inserted into the mating groove 12 of the pump housing component 1, and the mating rib 22 of the pump cover component 2 is fixed in the mating groove 12 of the pump housing component 1.
[0028] More specifically, an ultrasonic line 221 is provided at the end face of the mating rib 22 of the pump cover component 2; the mating rib 22 of the pump cover component 2 is fixed in the mating groove 12 of the pump housing component 1 by ultrasonic welding; in this way, the pump cover component 2 and the pump housing component 1 are fixed to each other, and a sealing structure is provided between the pump cover component 2 and the pump housing component 1.
[0029] Furthermore, a positioning rib 13 is provided at the first fixed edge 11 of the pump housing component 1. In fact, the positioning rib 13 is a set of protruding structural features integrally injection molded at the first fixed edge 11 (two positioning ribs 13 are provided in this embodiment); a positioning groove 23 matching the positioning rib 13 is provided at the second fixed edge 21 of the pump cover component 2. In fact, the positioning groove 23 is a set of groove-shaped structural features integrally injection molded at the second fixed edge 21 (two positioning grooves 23 are provided in this embodiment); through the cooperation of the positioning rib 13 and the positioning groove 23, the relative positioning of the pump cover component 2 and the pump housing component 1 and the assembly error prevention are realized.
[0030] This embodiment also provides an electronic water pump, which includes the above-described electronic water pump housing structure.

The first fixing edge 11 of the pump housing component 1 and the second fixing edge 21 of the pump cover component 2 are fixed to each other in the axial direction to form a sealing structure. This eliminates the need for screws and clips to assemble the pump cover component 2 and the pump housing component 1, and also eliminates the need to install a sealing ring. This saves on the assembly process of the electronic water pump, thereby reducing the overall cost of the electronic water pump. In addition, it avoids the problem of liquid medium leakage caused by the failure of the sealing ring, and improves the sealing performance, stability and service life of the electronic water pump.
