The impeller 21 includes: an impeller body 211 rotatably connected to the rotating cavity 101 and blades 212 disposed at one end of the impeller body 211. The pump housing 22 is connected inside the water tank 1. The pump casing 22 is provided with a working chamber 201 for the blades 212 to rotate within it. The pump casing 22 is provided with an inlet 202 and an outlet 203 communicating with the working chamber 201. The impeller body 211 is provided with a magnet 213. The winding positioning shell 24 is connected to the outside of the water tank 1. The motor winding 23 is connected to the winding positioning shell 24, and the impeller mounting part 11 can extend into the motor winding 23 so that the motor winding 23 can interact with the magnet 213 in the rotating chamber 101 to drive the impeller 21 to rotate. The drive circuit board 25 is electrically connected to the motor winding 23. This utility model's water tank features an impeller mounting portion protruding outwards from the tank. The impeller is mounted in a rotating chamber within the mounting portion, and the pump casing is located inside the tank. A motor winding located outside the tank drives the impeller to rotate, allowing water to enter the working chamber through the inlet and exit through the outlet. This design ensures that only the impeller and pump casing are located inside the tank, while the motor windings, winding positioning housing, and drive circuit board are located outside. Therefore, the power cord connected to the drive circuit board does not need to be submerged in water, avoiding the risk of leakage due to damaged insulation. Furthermore, having only the impeller and pump casing inside the tank reduces the space occupied and facilitates cleaning.

[0025] In this embodiment, the impeller mounting part 11 is located at the bottom of the water tank 1. To prevent the water pump assembly from touching the bottom, a support member 3 is provided at the bottom of the water tank 1, and the winding positioning shell 24 is located between the bottom of the water tank 1 and the support member 3.

During assembly, the casing is simply snapped into the boss, and the engagement between the groove 122 and the connecting protrusion 121 prevents the pump casing from falling off.

[0030] In this embodiment, the winding positioning shell 24 is provided with a docking shell 241 in which the impeller mounting part 11 can be embedded. The docking shell 241 is provided with a mounting groove 2410 in which the impeller mounting part 11 can be embedded. The docking shell 241 can extend into the motor winding 23.
