[0034] In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the fact that ordinary technicians in this field can implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is mutually contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such a combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.
[0035] The present application provides a fluid pump, such as a water pump, etc. FIG1-6 show a specific embodiment of the fluid pump of the present application, wherein the pump includes a pump housing 10 , an impeller 20 disposed in the pump housing 10 , and a motor 30 driving the impeller 20 to rotate in the pump housing 10 .
[0036] As shown in Figure 1, the pump housing 10 is provided with an inlet 12 and an outlet 14. The inlet 12 and outlet 14 are respectively used to connect to external pipelines to form a flow path for the fluid. In this embodiment, the inlet 12 extends axially along the pump housing 10, and the outlet 14 extends approximately tangentially to the outer circumference of the pump housing 10. In other words, the inlet 12 and outlet 14 are approximately perpendicular.
[0037] Please also refer to Figure 7. The impeller 20 is a disc-shaped structure as a whole, including a base plate 22 and a cover plate 24 that are relatively spaced apart, with a number of blades 26 disposed between the base plate 22 and the cover plate 24. The diameter of the impeller 20 as a whole is slightly smaller than the inner diameter of the pump casing 10, and there is a gap between the two, so that the impeller 20 can rotate freely in the pump casing 10 and push the fluid toward the outlet 14. Preferably, the blades 26 and the base plate 22 are integrally injection molded, and the cover plate 24 is connected to the base plate 22 by means of a snap or the like. In some embodiments, the cover plate 24 and the base plate 22 can also be connected by ultrasonic welding or bonding. In some embodiments, the cover plate 24 and the base plate 22 can also be an integral structure.
[0038] As shown in Figure 6, in this embodiment, the motor 30 is an internal rotor motor, comprising a stator assembly 32 and a rotor assembly 34 rotatably disposed within the stator assembly 32. The stator assembly 32 is connected to the pump housing 10, and the rotor assembly 34 is connected to the impeller 20, preferably forming an integral structure. Upon startup of the motor 30, the rotor assembly 34 rotates axially relative to the stator assembly 32, driving the connected impeller 20 to rotate within the pump housing 10.
[0039] Referring also to Figures 8-11 , the stator assembly 32 includes a stator outer shell 321, a stator inner shell 323, a stator core 325 disposed between the stator inner shell 323 and the stator outer shell 321, a coil 327 wound around the stator core 325, a conductive terminal 328 electrically connected to the coil 327, and a terminal support 3261 for supporting the conductive terminal 328. The stator assembly 32 is electrically connected to a circuit board 329 via the conductive terminal 328. After the motor is started, the circuit board 329 supplies current to the coil 327 and controls the direction and magnitude of the current flowing in the coil 327, enabling the stator assembly 32 to generate a periodically changing rotating magnetic field. This magnetic field interacts with the permanent magnets of the rotor assembly 34, driving the rotor assembly 34 to rotate, thereby driving the impeller 20 to rotate.
[0040] As shown in Figures 8-9, the stator outer shell 321 is a generally cylindrical structure with two open ends, including a first end (e.g., the top end) and a second end (e.g., the bottom end) that are axially opposed. The first end is connected to the pump housing 10 via a fastener, such as a screw, while the second end is connected to the end cap 36 via a fastener, such as a screw, or alternatively, ultrasonic welding, friction welding, or other adhesive methods. As shown in Figures 10-11, the stator inner shell 323 is a generally cylindrical structure, including an open end (e.g., the top end) and a closed end (e.g., the bottom end) that are axially opposed. The open end faces the pump housing 10, while the closed end faces the end cap 36. The outer diameter of the stator inner shell 323 is smaller than the inner diameter of the stator outer shell 321. After assembly, the stator inner shell 323 is disposed within the stator outer shell 321, with the two being radially spaced apart. The rotor assembly 34 is rotatably disposed within the stator inner shell 323 (see Figure 3).
[0041] As shown in Figures 3, 4, and 9, a partition 38 is disposed between the inner wall of the stator outer shell 321 and the outer wall of the stator inner shell 323. The partition 38 is positioned relatively close to the closed end of the stator inner shell 323 and away from its open end. In this embodiment, the partition 38 is integrally formed by extending radially toward the stator inner shell 323 from the inner wall of the stator outer shell 321 near the second side end. Preferably, the inner diameter of the partition 38 is comparable to the outer diameter of the stator inner shell 323 to ensure that the partition 38 fits as closely as possible against the outer wall of the stator inner shell 323 and minimize the gap between the two. A heat-conducting medium, such as the heat-conducting medium 40 (see Figure 4), may be interposed between the partition 38 and the circumferential outer wall of the stator inner shell 323 to transfer heat from the partition 38 through the stator inner shell 323 to the fluid flowing into the stator inner shell 323. Preferably, the heat conducting medium 40 surrounds the circumferential outer wall of the stator inner shell 323 , thereby closing the gap between the partition plate 38 and the stator inner shell 323 .
[0042] By setting the partition 38, the space between the stator outer shell 321 and the stator inner shell 323 is divided into two relatively independent parts. Among them, on the upper side of the partition 38, the radial gap between the stator outer shell 321 and the stator inner shell 323 serves as a first space 381 for installing the stator core 325 and the coil 327; on the lower side of the partition 38, the part surrounded by the stator outer shell 321 and the end cover 36 serves as a second space 383 for installing the circuit board 329.
[0043] In some embodiments, the partition 38 can also be formed separately and then assembled to the corresponding position of the stator outer shell 321 and / or the stator inner shell 323, as long as the first space 381 and the second space 383 can be separated to achieve a heat insulation effect between the coil 327 and the circuit board 329.
[0044] As shown in Figures 8-9, the outer edge of the partition 38 is recessed toward the circuit board 329 to form a relief groove 385 for accommodating the terminal support portion 3261. One axial end of the conductive terminal 328 is located within the terminal support portion 3261 and electrically connected to the coil 327. The other axial end extends through the bottom of the relief groove 385 and is connected to the circuit board 329. The motor 30 is preferably a three-phase motor, with three or four conductive terminals 328. The partition 38 has three or four through-holes 387 at the bottom of its relief groove 385, corresponding to the conductive terminals 328. As shown in Figure 8, in this embodiment, the partition 38 has three through-holes 387 at the bottom of its relief groove 385. Preferably, the central angle α corresponding to the relief groove 385 is no greater than 120 degrees, meaning that the length of the relief groove 385 along the circumference of the partition 38 does not exceed one-third of the circumference.
[0045] As shown in Figures 5, 6, 12, and 13, an insulating frame 326 is disposed between the stator core 325 and the coil 327. The insulating frame 326 projects toward the circuit board 329 corresponding to each conductive terminal 328, forming a terminal support portion 3261. The provision of the clearance slots 385 allows the partition 38 to effectively clear the terminal support portions 3261. Therefore, the size of the through-holes 387 is not limited by the size of the terminal support portions 3261; they only need to allow the ends of the conductive terminals 328 to pass through.
[0046] Compared to the prior art, the present application utilizes a partition 38 to separate a first space 381 for mounting the coil 327 from a second space 383 for mounting the circuit board 329, thereby reducing the amount of heat generated by the coil 327 dissipated toward the circuit board 329. Furthermore, the partition 38 is recessed toward the circuit board 329 to form a relief groove 385 to clear the terminal support portion 3261. This allows the bottom of the relief groove 385 of the partition 38 to be formed with only a small perforation 387 that matches the size of the end of the conductive terminal 328. This further reduces the amount of heat dissipated from the coil 327 toward the circuit board 329, effectively lowering the temperature of the circuit board 329.
[0047] To minimize heat transfer from coil 327 to circuit board 329 through perforations 387 of partition plate 38, in one embodiment, as shown in FIG8 , the cross-sectional dimensions of perforations 387 are configured to have a length L0 no greater than 3.0 mm and a width W0 no greater than 2.0 mm. As shown in FIG12-13 , the cross-sectional dimensions of terminal support portion 3261 are configured to have a length L1 and a width W1, where L1 > L0 and W1 > W0.
[0048] As shown in Figure 4 , the terminal support portion 3261 extends into the relief groove 385 of the partition plate 38, with its end surface positioned as close as possible to the bottom of the relief groove 385 to minimize the axial spacing between the two. In one embodiment, this spacing is set to no greater than 5.0 mm, allowing the terminal support portion 3261 to block the through-hole 387, further reducing or even preventing heat dissipation through the through-hole 387 toward the circuit board 329.
[0049] As shown in Figures 3-5, the circuit board 329 is in thermal contact with the closed end of the stator inner shell 323. Preferably, the circuit board 329 abuts the axially outer end surface of the closed end of the stator inner shell 323, with a thermally conductive medium 42 filling the space between them. This allows heat from the circuit board 329 to be quickly transferred toward the closed end of the stator inner shell 323 and then dissipated to the outside through the flow of fluid flowing into the stator inner shell 323. The thermal contact between the circuit board 329 and the closed end of the stator inner shell 323 eliminates the need to consider heat dissipation requirements during the design of the end cap 36, allowing for greater flexibility in material selection, such as the use of low-cost plastic.
[0050] In other embodiments, the circuit board 329 may also be in thermal contact with the circumferential outer wall of the closed end of the stator inner shell 323. Specifically, the stator assembly 32 further includes a cylindrical metal cover (not shown) with a bottom. The metal cover is fixed to the closed end of the stator inner shell 323 and is in thermal contact with the circumferential outer wall of the closed end of the stator inner shell 323. The circuit board 329 is in thermal contact with the bottom of the metal cover, thereby transferring heat from the circuit board 329 to the fluid in the stator inner shell 323 via the cylindrical portion of the metal cover and the circumferential outer wall of the stator inner shell 323.
[0051] To facilitate thermal contact between the circuit board 329 and the stator inner shell 323 , the electronic components on the circuit board 329 are arranged on the side of the circuit board 329 facing away from the stator inner shell 323 .
[0052] The open end of the stator inner shell 323 extends radially outward to form an annular connecting portion 322. The outer diameter of the connecting portion 322 is comparable to the outer diameters of the stator outer shell 321 and the pump housing 10. During assembly, as shown in Figure 3, the outer edge of the connecting portion 322 is sandwiched between the stator outer shell 321 and the pump housing 10 and fixed together by screws or the like. Preferably, a sealing ring 50 is sandwiched between the connecting portion 322 and the pump housing 10, so that the pump housing 10 and the stator inner shell 323 form a sealed space, and the fluid flowing through the pump housing 10 will not leak outward. Preferably, a sealing ring 44 is sandwiched between the connecting portion 322 and the stator outer shell 321, and a sealing ring 54 is sandwiched between the stator outer shell 321 and the end cover 36, so that the first space 381 and the second space 383 are sealed as a whole.
[0053] As shown in Figure 3, preferably, a heat-conducting medium 44 is provided between the coil 327 and the stator inner shell 323, such as the connecting portion 322 of the stator inner shell 323, so that the heat generated by the coil 327 can also be quickly conducted to the stator inner shell 323 and then dissipated outward through the flowing fluid.
[0054] In this embodiment, the stator outer shell 321 and the stator inner shell 323 are separately formed and assembled together to form the stator shell of the stator assembly 32. In some embodiments, the stator outer shell 321 and the stator inner shell 323 can also be an integrated structure, which is not limited to the specific embodiment.
[0055] As shown in Figure 14, the rotor assembly 34 includes a support body 342, a rotor core 343 embedded in the support body 342, and a permanent magnet 345 fixed to the outer peripheral side of the rotor core 343. An axial hole 347 is provided in the center of the support body 342 for passing the motor shaft 60. In this embodiment, the stator inner shell 323 forms a first shaft seat 320 in the center of its closed end, and the pump housing 10 is provided with a second shaft seat 16 in the center of its inner side. The rotor assembly 34 is rotatably sleeved on the middle part of the motor shaft 60, and the two ends of the motor shaft 60 are respectively placed in the first and second shaft seats 320 and 16. Among them, at least one end of the motor shaft 60 is fixedly connected to one of the shaft seats 320 or 16. Preferably, one end of the motor shaft 60 is fixedly connected to the first shaft seat 320, preferably integrally formed in the first shaft seat 320; the other end is loosely connected to the second shaft seat 16.
[0056] As shown in Figures 10-11, the stator inner shell 323 is preferably provided with a plurality of first ribs 324a therein. The first ribs 324a are preferably evenly spaced along the circumference. Each first rib 324a is generally triangular in structure, with one side connected to the circumferential inner wall of the stator inner shell 323 and the other side connected to the axial inner end surface of the closed end of the stator inner shell 323. This enhances the strength of the stator inner shell 323 and better supports the rotation of the rotor assembly 34.
[0057] The stator inner shell 323 may also be internally provided with a plurality of second ribs 324b, preferably evenly spaced along the circumference. Each second rib 324b is roughly triangular in structure, with one side connected to the circumferential outer wall of the shaft seat 320 and the other side connected to the axial inner end surface of the closed end of the stator inner shell 323, thereby enhancing the strength of the shaft seat 320. The radial spacing of the first and second ribs 324a, 324b allows for better heat transfer from the circuit board 329 to the fluid through the closed end of the stator inner shell 323.
[0058] The circuit board 329 houses multiple high-heat-generating electronic components, such as a microprocessor for controlling motor speed, electrolytic capacitors for power smoothing and filtering, a filter inductor for electromagnetic interference shielding, and multiple switching elements for the inverter. Each of these high-heat-generating components is at least partially positioned away from the location corresponding to the shaft seat 320 and arranged in an annular area outside the shaft seat 320, corresponding to the closed end of the stator inner housing 323, to better conduct heat through the closed end of the stator inner housing 323 to the fluid.
[0059] As shown in Figures 5, 6 and 11, preferably, a guide groove 62 is formed on the outer circumferential surface of the motor shaft 60, and the guide groove 62 extends along the axial direction of the motor shaft 60 to both ends of the motor shaft 60, connecting the spaces on both sides of the rotor assembly 34 in the axial direction, so that the fluid can flow between the impeller 20 and the stator inner shell 323 of the motor 30 along the path indicated by the arrow in Figure 5. Preferably, a notch 320a is provided at the outer end of the shaft seat 320, and the fluid can flow into the guide groove 62 of the shaft seat 320 through the notch 320a, and then flow along the guide groove 62 toward the impeller 20. In the illustrated embodiment, the guide groove 62 is single. In other embodiments, there may be multiple guide grooves 62 and they may be arranged at intervals along the circumference of the motor shaft 60.
[0060] As shown in Figures 5, 6, and 15, a gasket 70 is preferably sleeved on the end of the motor shaft 60 connected to the pump housing 10. The gasket 70 is connected to the shaft seat 16 and faces the location of the impeller 20. A groove 72 is formed on the axial end surface of the gasket 70 facing away from the pump housing 10. The groove 72 extends radially, connecting the inner side with the guide groove 62 of the motor shaft 60 and the outer side with the space within the pump housing 10. When the fluid flows upward along the guide groove 62 of the motor shaft 60 to the gasket 70, it can flow outward along the groove 72 and return to the impeller 20. In the illustrated embodiment, there are multiple grooves 72, spaced apart along the circumference of the gasket 70. In other embodiments, there can be a single groove 72. In other embodiments, radial holes or radial grooves, etc., can be provided on other components to replace the groove 72, as long as the fluid in the guide groove 62 can flow outward through the radial holes or radial grooves and return to the impeller 20.
[0061] When the fluid pump of this embodiment is in operation, fluid enters through the inlet 12 of the pump housing 10 and, driven by the rotation of the impeller 20, flows out through the outlet 14. As shown by the arrows in Figure 5, some of the fluid flows through the gap between the outer periphery of the rotor assembly 34 and the stator inner housing 323 to the bottom space of the stator inner housing 323, absorbing heat from the circuit board 329, which is in thermal contact with the stator inner housing 323. The fluid, after absorbing heat, enters the guide groove 62 of the motor shaft 60 through the notch 320a of the shaft seat 320 and flows upward along the guide groove 62. It then flows along the groove 72 of the gasket 70 to the impeller 20 and is discharged from the outlet 14 of the pump housing 10 under the action of the impeller 20. The fluid flowing along this path can transfer the heat generated by the operation of the motor 30 into the fluid and dissipate it to the outside world, further improving the heat dissipation effect, allowing the circuit board 329 to operate at an appropriate temperature, avoiding malfunctions, and improving electrical safety.
[0062] It should be noted that the above embodiments merely represent preferred implementations of the present application, and while the descriptions are relatively specific and detailed, they should not be construed as limiting the present application. It should be noted that those skilled in the art may, without departing from the spirit of the present application, make various modifications and improvements, such as combining different features from the various embodiments, and all of these modifications and improvements should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
