[0025] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the directional descriptions, such as up, down, front, back, left, right, etc., indicate the directional or positional relationship based on the directional or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0026] In the description of this utility model, the use of "first" and "second" is only for the purpose of distinguishing technical features and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features or the order of the technical features.
[0027] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly defined, terms such as "setting," "installation," and "connection" should be interpreted broadly, and those skilled in the art can reasonably determine the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model in conjunction with the specific content of the technical solution.
[0028] Reference Figures 1 to 6 This utility model discloses an electric motor, including a motor housing 10, a motor rotor 20, and a friction bearing 30. The motor housing 10 is provided with a liquid lubrication cooling chamber 11 and a bearing chamber 12 located at one end of the liquid lubrication cooling chamber 11. The motor housing 10 has a water distribution channel 13 that connects the liquid lubrication cooling chamber 11 and the outside.
[0029] The motor rotor 20 is housed within the liquid lubrication and cooling chamber 11. The motor rotor 20 has a motor shaft 21 that passes through it axially. One end of the motor shaft 21 extends into the bearing chamber 12. The other end of the motor shaft 21 passes through the motor housing 10, is rotatably connected to it, and extends outward.
[0030] The friction bearing 30 is disposed within the bearing housing 12 and sleeved on the motor shaft 21. A bearing housing flow channel 31, which communicates with the liquid lubrication cooling chamber 11, is provided between the bearing housing 12 and the friction bearing 30. The bearing housing flow channel 31 extends axially along the bearing housing 12.
[0031] Under the drive of the pump, the medium outside the motor housing 10 enters the liquid lubrication cooling chamber 11 through the water distribution plate channel 13. The motor rotor 20 rotates in the liquid lubrication cooling chamber 11 filled with cooling medium. The cooling medium absorbs the heat generated by the motor rotor 20, improving the heat dissipation effect of the motor rotor. In particular, by setting the bearing chamber channel 31 in the bearing chamber 12, it is ensured that the coolant in the liquid lubrication cooling chamber 11 can enter the bearing chamber 12, thereby fully contacting the friction bearing 30 and realizing the heat dissipation effect generated by the friction bearing 30 during rotation, preventing the normal operation of the motor from being affected by excessive temperature.
[0032] The friction bearing 30 has an H-shaped cross-section along its axial direction. A buffer element 32 is provided between the outer wall of the friction bearing 30 and the inner wall of the bearing housing 12.
[0033] It also includes a water distribution plate 14, which extends radially outward along the motor shaft 21. The outer periphery of the water distribution plate 14 is fitted and snapped into the motor housing 10, and the water distribution plate 14 is provided with a water distribution plate channel 13.
[0034] It is understandable that the friction bearing 30 has an H-shaped cross-section along the axial direction, and the buffer 32 is set on the friction bearing 30. The radial dimension of the middle part of the friction bearing 30 is smaller than that of the two ends, making its cross-section along the axial direction H-shaped. This makes it difficult for the buffer 32 to detach from the friction bearing 30, thereby improving the stability of motor operation and reducing the failure rate.
[0035] Reference Figures 1 to 6 The buffer element 32 is annular and is fitted onto the friction bearing 30 at the position with the smallest radial dimension.
[0036] It is worth noting that in the embodiments of this utility model, the buffer 32 is an annular elastic member, and the inner diameter of the annular elastic buffer 32 is approximately equal to the outer diameter of the smallest cylindrical surface of the H-shaped friction bearing 30. The annular buffer 32 is sleeved on the smallest cylindrical surface of the T-shaped friction bearing 30.
[0037] It is worth noting that in the embodiments of this utility model, the friction bearing 30 is made of polytetrafluoroethylene or graphite.
[0038] Compared to the existing friction bearing 30 made of silicon carbide, friction bearings made of polytetrafluoroethylene or graphite have better self-lubricating effect, reduce bearing heat generation, and extend equipment life.
[0039] Reference Figures 3 to 5 The friction bearing 30 has several bearing chamber channels 31.
[0040] It is worth noting that in the embodiments of this utility model, the bearing chamber flow channel 31 is opened on the friction bearing 30, so that the cooling medium is closer to the motor shaft 21, thereby improving the cooling effect.
[0041] It is worth noting that in some embodiments of this utility model, there are several bearing chamber flow channels 31, and the several bearing chamber flow channels 31 are evenly distributed along the circumference of the friction bearing 30.
[0042] It is worth noting that in some embodiments of this utility model, there are two bearing chamber flow channels 31.
[0043] It should be noted that in some embodiments of this utility model, the bottom surface of the bearing chamber flow channel 31 is an arc surface. The arc surface of the bearing chamber flow channel 31 can reduce stress concentration, increase the maximum torque that the friction bearing 30 can withstand, and improve the service life of the equipment.
[0044] Reference Figure 1 An axial stop ring 33 is provided between the friction bearing 30 and the motor rotor 20, and the axial stop ring 33 is sleeved on the motor shaft 21.
[0045] Reference Figure 6 A water groove 331 is provided on the axial stop ring 33.
[0046] It is worth noting that when the water pump is running, water can easily enter between the axial retaining ring 33 and the friction bearing 30 through the water tank 331, forming a water film, reducing friction, which helps to extend the motor life and reduce noise.
[0047] It is worth noting that the washing pump of the second aspect of this utility model has all the beneficial effects brought about by the motor of the first aspect, and will not be repeated here.
[0048] The technical features of the above embodiments can be combined in any way. For the sake of brevity, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0049] Of course, this utility model is not limited to the above-described embodiments. Those skilled in the art can make equivalent modifications or substitutions without departing from the spirit of this utility model. All such equivalent modifications or substitutions are included within the scope defined by the claims of this application.
