[0019] See Figure 1 As shown, an eddy current stator includes a stator housing 1, an eddy current PCB board 2 is provided inside the stator housing 1, and a sealing ring 11 is provided on the surface of the stator housing 1. The sealing ring 11 is used to embed into the mounting hole of the motor housing and form a seal with the mounting hole. The stator housing 1 around the sealing ring 11 is provided with connecting holes 12. The stator housing 1 around the sealing ring 11 is in close contact with the motor housing and is connected to the motor housing through the connecting holes by fasteners.

[0020] This invention improves upon the eddy current stator. Specifically, a sealing ring is added to the stator housing of the eddy current stator. The sealing ring engages with the mounting hole on the motor housing to form a seal. The eddy current rotor is mounted on the motor shaft and located within the mounting hole. After the eddy current stator is assembled with the motor housing, the eddy current stator and rotor cooperate to detect the motor speed. The eddy current stator of this invention directly seals the end of the motor housing, eliminating the need for additional end caps, thus reducing material costs. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for the cylinder-penetrating component that passes through the end cap, solving the leakage problem inherent in existing cylinder-penetrating components.

[0021] The sealing ring 11 has an open lower cavity 110. The eddy current PCB board 2 is installed in the cavity and fixed with glue. The stator housing has a terminal block 3 on the side away from the sealing ring. The terminal block 3 is connected to the eddy current PCB board. In a further embodiment of the present invention, the sealing ring has an open cavity facing the motor shaft. The eddy current PCB board is placed in the cavity and fixed with glue. The glue injection forms a glue layer 4. The glue injection not only fixes the eddy current PCB board, but also provides a seal to prevent the leakage of oil inside the motor. In this embodiment, the connection terminal has pins to connect with the eddy current PCB board. The connection terminal adopts a universal connection terminal for easy plugging with external devices.

[0022] Furthermore, in one embodiment of this utility model, a lower cavity 110 with an opening is formed inside the sealing ring body 11, and an upper cavity 111 with an opening is provided at one end of the stator housing 1 away from the sealing ring body. The upper cavity 111 and the lower cavity 110 are coaxially arranged, and a spacer assembly 112 is formed between the upper cavity and the lower cavity. The eddy current PCB board is disposed in the upper cavity and closely attached to the spacer assembly. An upper cover plate 113 is also included. The upper cover plate is installed in the upper cavity to fix the eddy current PCB board. Here, the eddy current stator is improved. Specifically, the position of the eddy current PCB board is improved. The eddy current PCB board is placed in the upper cavity of the stator housing and supported by the spacer assembly. Then it is fixed by the upper cover plate, which facilitates assembly and disassembly and maintenance after assembly. The spacer assembly is used to separate the upper cavity and the lower cavity.

[0023] This embodiment provides two different structural forms for the spacer assembly. Here is the first one. The spacer assembly 112 is a spacer plate 1120 formed between the upper cavity and the lower cavity. The spacer plate is located at the connection between the upper cavity and the lower cavity and is connected to the walls of the upper cavity and the lower cavity, forming a physical isolation between the two cavities.

[0024] The second structural form is given here. The spacer component 112 is a plurality of supporting arc-shaped plates 1121 formed between the upper cavity and the lower cavity. The plurality of supporting arc-shaped plates are distributed in a circle. The eddy current PCB board is installed in the upper cavity and supported by the supporting arc-shaped plates. In addition, glue needs to be injected into the lower cavity to form a seal.

[0025] The connecting hole 12 is provided with a metal sleeve 120. The metal sleeve is provided to improve the structural strength of the stator housing. When the fastener acts on the stator housing, the metal sleeve acts as the main force-bearing component to ensure that the stator housing will not be damaged by pressure.

[0026] The stator housing 1 is made of plastic injection molding and is processed from high-temperature resistant plastics, such as polyphenylene sulfide and polyether ether ketone, to meet the high-temperature environment of motor operation.

[0027] The sealing ring body 11 has at least one mounting groove 114 on its outer circumferential surface. The mounting groove 114 is provided with a sealing ring 115. The sealing ring is provided to improve the sealing effect between the sealing ring body and the wall of the mounting hole of the motor housing, so as to ensure that the motor meets the protection level requirements.

[0028] The motor includes a motor housing 5, on which a mounting hole 50 corresponding to the end of the motor shaft is provided, and also includes an eddy current stator 3 as described above, which is connected to the motor housing and seals the mounting hole 50.

[0029] In summary, this utility model has the following technical effects: This invention improves upon the eddy current stator. Specifically, a sealing ring is added to the stator housing of the eddy current stator. The sealing ring engages with the mounting hole on the motor housing to form a seal. The eddy current rotor is mounted on the motor shaft and located within the mounting hole. After the eddy current stator is assembled with the motor housing, the eddy current stator and rotor cooperate to detect the motor speed. The eddy current stator of this invention directly seals the end of the motor housing, eliminating the need for additional end caps, thus reducing material costs. Furthermore, it eliminates the need for the cylinder-penetrating component that passes through the end cap, solving the leakage problem inherent in existing cylinder-penetrating components.
