Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of motors, and in particular to a water-cooling structure for a handheld power tool motor. Background Technology

[0002] In the existing field of motor application technology, most traditionally designed motor tools on the market adopt a waterless housing structure.

[0003] This design has a significant flaw during normal motor operation: due to the lack of an effective heat dissipation mechanism, the large amount of heat generated during motor operation cannot be dissipated in time, causing the motor temperature to rise continuously. Excessive temperature not only accelerates the aging and damage of internal motor components, significantly shortening the overall lifespan of the device, but also causes the motor casing to become noticeably hot to the touch during prolonged use, severely impacting the user experience. Therefore, effectively solving the heat dissipation problem during motor operation, reducing motor temperature, extending motor life, and improving user experience have become critical issues that urgently need to be addressed in the current motor technology field. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned problems of existing motors, the aim is to provide a water-cooled structure for handheld power tool motors.

[0005] The specific technical solution is as follows:

[0006] A water-cooled structure for the motor of a handheld power tool, disposed within the housing of the power tool, includes:

[0007] An outer cooling shell is provided along the periphery of the motor and has a cold water channel thereon;

[0008] The water inlet and the water outlet are located on the housing, and the water inlet is connected to one end of the cold water channel.

[0009] A water pump is located inside the housing. The water pump's inlet is connected to the other end of the cold water channel, and its outlet is connected to the water outlet.

[0010] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the outer cooling shell is made of plastic.

[0011] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the water inlet is connected to one end of the cold water channel through a first pipeline.

[0012] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the other end of the cold water channel is connected to the water inlet of the water pump through a second pipeline.

[0013] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the water outlet of the water pump is connected to the water outlet through a third pipeline.

[0014] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the motor is a DC motor.

[0015] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the outer cooling shell is fixed with bolts.

[0016] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the water inlet is located on one side of the bottom of the housing.

[0017] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the water outlet is located on the top side of the shell.

[0018] As a further improvement and optimization of this solution, the water pump is located between the motor and the water outlet.

[0019] The positive effects of the above technical solution compared with the existing technology are:

[0020] This invention features a housing that forms a cold water channel around the motor. A water pump sequentially discharges cooling water through the inlet, the cold water channel, and the outlet. As the cooling water passes through the cold water channel, it exchanges heat with the motor, thereby achieving a cooling effect, reducing the motor temperature, and extending the motor's lifespan.
