Description

An external rotor motor with a detachable sprocket Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of external rotor motors, and specifically relates to an external rotor motor with a detachable sprocket. Background Technology

[0002] An external rotor motor is a special type of motor. Unlike traditional internal rotor motors, its rotor is located outside the stator and is usually directly connected to the housing. Due to its advantages such as high torque and good heat dissipation, external rotor motors are widely used in fans, electric vehicles, and industrial equipment.

[0003] Chinese Patent Application No. CN202323117402.3 discloses an external rotor motor, including a motor shaft, a stator assembly, a rotor assembly, and an assembly component. The stator assembly is mounted on the motor shaft and inside the rotor assembly. The assembly component is mounted on the output portion of the motor shaft. The assembly component includes a retaining ring, a bearing, a pulley, a housing, and an end cover. The end cover is rotatably mounted on the motor shaft, the pulley is mounted on the output end of the motor shaft, the bearing is mounted in the middle of the motor shaft, the retaining ring is mounted close to the bearing and is secured to the motor shaft, and the housing is mounted on the rotor assembly. The housing and the end cover are fastened together by bolts. This external rotor motor has a reasonable structure, making it more convenient for customers to install and maintain the motor. However, the pulley of the aforementioned external rotor motor is threadedly connected to the motor shaft, which is in turn fixedly connected to the stator assembly. In order to drive the pulley, the rotor assembly needs to be fixed, which in turn causes the stator assembly to rotate. This not only makes the external structure of the device complex, but also greatly negates the high torque advantage of the external rotor motor and seriously affects the output efficiency of the external rotor motor. To solve this problem, the current solution is to directly fix the pulley and other transmission components to the end cover housing. However, this will reduce the overall sealing of the motor and make it difficult to maintain in the future. Summary of the Invention

The mounting base device is detachably mounted on the end cover housing, and the sprocket is detachably mounted on the mounting base device, which greatly improves the motor's sealing performance and subsequent maintenance.
