[0089] The shell 1 is also provided with a water cooling inlet 25 and a water cooling outlet 26, one end of the water flow channel unit at one axial end is in communication with the water cooling inlet 25, and one end of the water flow channel unit at the other axial end is in communication with the water cooling outlet 26.
[0090] The water cooling inlet is arranged at the uppermost end of the shell, so that the gravity of the water can be effectively utilized to flow from top to bottom. The water cooling outlet is arranged opposite to the water cooling inlet in the axial direction, so that the distribution area of the cooling water flow channel is increased, and the cooling effect is further improved. The water cooling inlet and the water cooling outlet are arranged at the two end faces or near the two end faces of the shell in the axial direction as much as possible, so that the length of the cooling water flow channel in the axial direction is maximized, the contact area and the heat dissipation area of the cooling water and the shell are further increased, and the cooling effect and the cooling performance of the motor are further improved.
[0091] In some embodiments,
[0092] The water cooling inlet 25 is arranged on the outer wall of the uppermost end of the shell 1, and the water cooling outlet 26 is arranged opposite to the water cooling inlet 25 in the axial direction of the shell 1. The axial distance between the water cooling inlet 25 and one end face of the shell 1 in the axial direction is less than a first preset distance, and the axial distance between the water cooling outlet 26 and the other end face of the shell 1 in the axial direction is less than a second preset distance.
[0093] The water cooling inlet is arranged at the uppermost end of the shell, so that the gravity of the water can be effectively utilized to flow from top to bottom. The water cooling outlet is arranged opposite to the water cooling inlet in the axial direction, so that the distribution area of the cooling water flow channel is increased, and the cooling effect is further improved. The water cooling inlet and the water cooling outlet are arranged at the two end faces or near the two end faces of the shell in the axial direction as much as possible, so that the length of the cooling water flow channel in the axial direction is maximized, the contact area and the heat dissipation area of the cooling water and the shell are further increased, and the cooling effect and the cooling performance of the motor are further improved.
[0094] The cooling water flow channel is preferably arranged above the motor in the circumferential direction, so that the flow resistance is reduced. The water cooling outlet 26 is arranged in the same axial direction of the water cooling inlet 25, and is arranged as close to the end face of the shell 1 as possible, so that the contact area of the cooling water flow channel 13 and the shell is increased, the heat conduction area is increased, and the cooling efficiency of the whole machine is improved.
[0095] In some embodiments,
[0096] The cooling gas flow channel 21 is arranged between the inner wall and the outer wall of the shell 1, and is not communicated with the cooling water flow channel 13. In the projection plane of the axial end face of the shell 1, the cooling gas flow channel 21 and the cooling water flow channel 13 do not overlap, and the cooling gas flow channel 21 and the cooling water flow channel 13 are staggered in the circumferential direction.
[0097] The cooling air flow channel of the application is arranged at a position on the shell which is circumferentially staggered with the cooling water flow channel, so that the water channel and the air channel do not overlap in the circumferential direction of the shell. While increasing the contact area with the shell through the cooling water flow channel, the purpose and effect of the air channel for ventilating and cooling the interior of the shell are ensured. The shell has the same thickness as the single water-cooled shell, and the thickness is greatly reduced compared with the water-air mixed cooling shell of the prior art. The thickness of the shell is reduced, and the cooling and heat dissipation performance is improved.
[0098] The cooling water flow channel 13 of the application is staggered with the cooling air flow channel 21 in the circumferential direction of the shell 1, that is, the air-cooling + liquid-cooling mixed cooling structure shell is arranged without increasing the thickness of the shell. The cooling air flow channel 21 is arranged in the radial direction, and the required shell position is relatively small. Therefore, the angle of the cooling water flow channel 13 in the circumferential direction of the shell is more than 300°. Without affecting the strength of the shell and contacting the cooling air flow channel 21, the larger the angle, the better.
[0099] The circumferential reciprocating axial cooling water flow channel 13 of the application is staggered with the cooling air flow channel 21 in the circumferential direction of the shell 1. Compared with the traditional spiral water channel, the cooling water flow channel 13 and the shell 1 are almost fully contacted in the axial and circumferential directions. The heat exchange between the stator 2 in the shell 1 is uniform, which avoids the problem that the local area of the stator and the glue-filled wire package has low heat exchange efficiency due to being far away from the water channel, resulting in high temperature rise and abnormal failure of the motor. The reliability and service life of the whole machine are improved.
[0100] In some embodiments,
[0101] When the cooling water flow channel 13 has a non-connected part in the circumferential direction, the cooling air flow channel 21 is arranged at the position of the non-connected part of the cooling water flow channel 13 in the circumferential direction.
[0102] The cooling air flow channel of the application is preferably arranged at a position on the shell which is circumferentially staggered with the cooling water flow channel, so that the water channel and the air channel do not overlap in the circumferential direction of the shell. While increasing the contact area with the shell through the cooling water flow channel, the purpose and effect of the air channel for ventilating and cooling the interior of the shell are ensured. The shell has the same thickness as the single water-cooled shell, and the thickness is greatly reduced compared with the water-air mixed cooling shell of the prior art. The thickness of the shell is reduced, and the cooling and heat dissipation performance is improved.
