Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of motor end cover technology, specifically to a motor end cover. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most low-power motors have ball bearing housings on their end covers. The bearings are fixed inside the bearing housings. The internal space of low-power motors is small. When the motor is running, the bearings generate heat, which is difficult to dissipate. The temperature rises sharply, which leads to increased bearing wear. In addition, if the bearings are not properly lubricated, wear will also be accelerated, resulting in a large eccentricity when the motor is running, which will eventually burn out the motor.
[0003] Solution CN206922561U discloses a motor end cover, which allows hot air inside the motor to be discharged through a ring of heat dissipation holes on the end cover, thus playing a certain role in heat relief. However, since the heat dissipation holes are located on the periphery of the bearing housing and are far from the bearing, the heat dissipation effect is limited. Moreover, the heat dissipation holes can only be used for ventilation and heat dissipation and cannot be used for lubrication of the bearing, which is a shortcoming. In addition, the heat dissipation holes cannot be closed, and moisture can easily enter when the motor is not in use, which can have a negative impact on the motor. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a motor end cover to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0005] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] This utility model discloses a motor end cover, including an end cover body. The end cover body has a bearing sleeve and a rotating shaft sleeve at its center. The inner diameter of the bearing sleeve is larger than the inner diameter of the rotating shaft sleeve and forms a bearing mounting area. The bearing mounting area is used to install a bearing.

[0037] This embodiment, in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, provides a detailed description of a motor end cover.
[0038] This embodiment provides a motor end cover, such as... Figure 1 , Figure 3 As shown, the device includes an end cap body 1. The end cap body 1 has a bearing sleeve 2 and a rotating shaft sleeve 3 at its center. The inner diameter of the bearing sleeve 2 is larger than the inner diameter of the rotating shaft sleeve 3, forming a bearing mounting area 5. The bearing mounting area 5 is used to install a bearing 51. The end cap body 1 has several reinforcing ribs 11 on both sides. The end cap body 1 has several fixing ears 12 around its perimeter. The fixing ears 12 have mounting holes 121. The end cap body 1, bearing sleeve 2, rotating shaft sleeve 3, reinforcing ribs 11, and fixing ears 12 are fixed together. This is the existing design.
[0039] like Figure 7As shown, the bearing sleeve 2 is provided with several channels 21, which pass through the rotating shaft sleeve 3. The rotating shaft sleeve 3 is provided with several channels 31, which connect the bearing mounting area 5. The channels 21 and 31 are located inside and can directly act on the bearing 51.
[0040] like Figure 5 , Figure 7 As shown, the inner opening 211 of channel 21 is located on the inner wall of bearing sleeve 2, and the inner opening 311 of channel 31 is located on the inner end face of rotating shaft sleeve 3, corresponding to the radial position of the balls of bearing 51 after installation. The outer opening 212 of channel 21 and the outer opening 312 of channel 31 are located on the outer end face of rotating shaft sleeve 3. Channel 21 is located around channel 31. Channel 21 and channel 31 act on two positions of bearing 51. Channel 21 is for ventilation and heat dissipation, and channel 31 can also be used to add oil to bearing 51 in addition to ventilation and heat dissipation.
[0041] like Figure 5 , Figure 7 As shown, the inner opening 211 and the outer opening 212 are rectangular slots. The length of the inner opening 211 is along the axial direction of the bearing sleeve 2. The rectangular slot is adapted to the thickness of the bearing 51. The inner opening 311 and the outer opening 312 are round holes. The round holes are adapted to the ball spacing width.
[0042] like Figure 4 , Figure 5 As shown, channel 1 21 has 12 channels evenly distributed around the circumference, and channel 2 31 has 6 channels evenly distributed around the circumference.
[0043] like Figure 6 , Figure 7 , Figure 8 , Figure 9 , Figure 10 As shown, the outer end of the rotating sleeve 3 is provided with a rotatable annular cover plate 4. The annular cover plate 4 is located inside and is not easily damaged. The annular cover plate 4 is provided with several through holes 41 corresponding to the first channel 21 and the second channel 31. The annular cover plate 4 inside the rotating sleeve 3 is provided with sealing rings 34 on both sides. The annular cover plate 4 serves as the switch for the first channel 21 and the second channel 31. The annular cover plate 4 is provided with a fixed handle 42. The handle 42 is located outside the circumference of the rotating sleeve 3. The handle 42 is provided with a ball 421. The ball 421 moves through a spring 422 inside the handle 42. The spring 422 is in a compressed state. The ball 421 is nested with the spherical groove 33 on the circumference of the rotating sleeve 3. When nested, most of the ball 421 is inside the handle 42. When the ball 421 is nested in the spherical groove 33, the annular cover plate 4 is fixed and the first channel 21 and the second channel 31 are in the open state.
[0044] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the rotating bushing 3 has a limiting strip hole 32 on its circumference. The handle 42 passes through the limiting strip hole 32 and is slidable. The spherical groove 33 is located at the end of the limiting strip hole 32. The limiting strip hole 32 limits the movement of the handle 42.
[0045] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, the circumferential surface of the rotating sleeve 3 is provided with two spherical grooves 33. The two spherical grooves 33 are respectively located at the two ends of the limiting strip hole 32. When the handle 42 is turned to switch the position of the ball 421 in the two spherical grooves 33, the annular cover plate 4 opens and closes the channel 1 21 and the channel 2 31.
[0046] An electric motor includes a motor end cover, which is fixedly connected to the end of the motor housing via mounting holes 121 and bolts, serving as an output end cover suitable for most low-power motors.
[0047] In practice, the end cover body 1 is fixedly installed on the end of the motor housing through the mounting hole 121, the bearing 51 is fixed in the bearing mounting area 5, and the motor shaft passes through the bearing 51 and the shaft sleeve 3. When the motor is working, channel one 21 and channel two 31 are kept open. Channel one 21 vents and dissipates heat around the bearing 51, and channel two 31 vents and dissipates heat inside the bearing 51. When the motor is stopped, lubricating oil can be injected into the ball bearings of the bearing 51 through channel two 31 to maintain the bearing 51. Then, the handle 42 is moved to the other end of the limiting strip hole 32 to make the ball 421 engage in another spherical groove 33, thus closing the annular cover plate 4 to channel one 21 and channel two 31 and preventing moisture from entering the motor.
[0048] The present invention and its embodiments have been described above. This description is not restrictive, and the actual scope of protection is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this invention should be included within the scope of protection of this invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of this invention should be determined by the scope of the claims.
