The stator core 31 is cylindrical and is formed by stamping in one piece, eliminating the need for welding to form a circle. This not only reduces manufacturing processes but also improves the accuracy of the inner circle. The upper insulating frame 32 and the lower insulating frame 33 are nested on the upper and lower sides of the stator core 31. The pins 34 are inserted into the upper insulating frame 32 in one go using the equipment. Then, the enameled wire windings 36 are wound around the wire slots of the stator core 31, with the wire ends wrapped around the pins 34. The power lines are soldered together through the PCB board 35 and the pins 34, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the internal windings and external components. Thus, the overall structure of the stator assembly 3 is simple. The housing 1 is made of BMC material to injection mold the stator assembly 3, front end cover 2, wire clamp 4 and connecting rod 5 into one piece. The rotor assembly 6 is placed into the housing 1, then the rear end cover 7 is pressed on and the gearbox 8 is installed. Finally, the pins 10 on the shaft are pressed in to complete the assembly. Most of the process can be completed by automated equipment, saving multiple manual assembly processes, reducing labor costs.

The pins 34 are inserted into the upper insulating frame 32 in one go using the equipment. Then, the enameled wire windings 36 are wound around the wire slots of the stator core 31, with the wire ends wrapped around the pins 34. The power lines are soldered together through the PCB board 35 and the pins 34, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the internal windings and external components. Thus, the overall structure of the stator assembly 3 is simple.
