[0041] The above solution will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments.

The implementation conditions used in the embodiments can be further adjusted according to the conditions of specific manufacturers, and the implementation conditions not specified are usually the conditions in conventional experiments.
[0042] like Figure 1 and Figure 2The diagram shown is a structural schematic of an embodiment of the present utility model, which provides a heat dissipation fin cooling motor structure, including a motor body, a first bearing assembly 3 installed at the first axial end of the motor body, a second bearing assembly 4 installed at the second axial end (shaft extension end) of the motor body, an end cover 6 covering the outer periphery of the first bearing assembly 3, and a cooling fan 5 disposed inside the end cover 6.
[0043] The motor body includes a base 1 and a rotating shaft 2 rotatably disposed within the base 1. The rotating shaft 2 is supported on a first bearing assembly 3 and a second bearing assembly 4. A cooling fan 5 is mounted on the rotating shaft 2. Multiple cooling fins 1-1 extending axially are provided on the outer wall of the base 1.
[0044] To improve the heat dissipation performance of the second bearing assembly 4 at the shaft extension end, a guide shroud 7 is also provided. This shroud is installed at the second axial end of the motor body and covers the second bearing assembly 4. An air outlet is located between the end cover 6 and the outer wall of the base 1, and an air inlet is located between the guide shroud 7 and the outer wall of the base 1. Thus, air introduced into the end cover 6 by the cooling fan 5 can enter the guide shroud 7 through the cooling fins 1-1 to dissipate heat from the second bearing assembly 4. The airflow direction is as follows: Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in Figure A.
[0045] To facilitate the installation of the flow guide 7, multiple mounting posts 8 are provided around the end cover at the second axial end of the motor body on the base 1. The flow guide 7 is mounted on the multiple mounting posts 8 via multiple connectors 9. The mounting posts 8 are welded to the outer circumference of the end cover and extend radially along the motor body. The connectors 9 are bolts.
[0046] To improve structural stability, a first gasket is provided between the connector 9 and the outer wall of the guide shield 7.
[0047] To facilitate adjustment of the installation position of the air deflector 7, a first waist-shaped positioning hole 7-1a is provided on the air deflector 7 for the connector 9 to pass through. The installation position of the air deflector 7 can be adjusted by adjusting the position of the connector 9 in the first waist-shaped positioning hole 7-1a.
[0048] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the air deflector 7 includes a first air deflector 7-1, a second air deflector 7-2, and an end plate 7-3 connected in sequence. The first air deflector 7-1 is semi-circular, and the second air deflector 7-2 tapers from the first air deflector 7-1 towards the end plate 7-3. The end plate 7-3 has a clearance opening for cooperation with the second bearing assembly 4. The first air deflector 7-1 and the end plate 7-3 are connected by the second air deflector 7-2, which avoids wind vortices caused by right-angle connections and improves heat dissipation efficiency. There is a gap between the lower end of the second air deflector 7-2 and the second bearing assembly 4 to avoid interference with the oil injection pipe of the second bearing assembly 4.
[0049] To reduce rainwater entering the motor and improve its reliability, such as Figures 5 to 7 As shown, a baffle 10 is detachably provided at the end of the end cover 6 away from the motor body, and there is an air inlet gap between the baffle 10 and the end cover 6.
[0050] Specifically, multiple connecting pieces 11 are provided around the baffle 10, and multiple connecting blocks 13 that cooperate with the multiple connecting pieces 11 are provided on the inner wall of the end cover 6. The connecting pieces 11 and the connecting blocks 13 are detachably connected by fasteners 12, wherein the fasteners 12 are bolts. The connecting blocks 13 are welded to the end cover 6 and are provided with threaded holes that cooperate with the connecting parts 9. At the same time, a second gasket is provided between the fasteners 12 and the connecting pieces 11 to improve the stability of the structure.
[0051] To facilitate adjustment of the distance between the baffle 10 and the end cover 6 as needed, thereby reducing the amount of rainwater entering the motor, a second waist-shaped positioning hole 11-1 is provided on the connecting piece 11 for the fastener 12 to pass through. By adjusting the position of the fastener 12 in the second waist-shaped positioning hole 11-1, the distance between the baffle 10 and the end cover 6 can be adjusted. To improve the stability of the structure, two second waist-shaped positioning holes 11-1 are provided on the connecting piece 11 at intervals, and the connecting piece 11 and the connecting block 13 are connected by two fasteners 12.
[0052] The working principle of this utility model is as follows:
[0053] When the motor is working, the cooling fan 5 draws air into the end cover 6 through the air inlet gap between the baffle 10 and the end cover 6. The air in the end cover 6 is further introduced into the guide shroud 7 through the gap between the cooling fins 1-1 to dissipate heat on the second bearing assembly 4 at the shaft extension end. The baffle 10 installed on the end cover 6 can reduce rainwater entering the motor and improve the reliability of motor operation.
[0054] In summary, this motor structure can utilize a cooling fan to dissipate heat from the bearing assembly at the shaft extension end, improving heat dissipation performance. At the same time, it can reduce the amount of rainwater entering the motor, thereby improving the reliability of motor operation.
[0055] The above examples are only for illustrating the technical concept and features of this utility model, and are intended to enable those skilled in the art to understand the content of this utility model and implement it accordingly. They should not be used to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. All equivalent changes or modifications made in accordance with the spirit and essence of this utility model should be included within the scope of protection of this utility model.
