The stator assembly 1200 and the rotor assembly 1300 are both installed inside the casing 1100, the stator assembly 1200 is arranged around the rotor assembly 1300, one end of a main shaft of the rotor assembly 1300 is connected to the circuit board 1600 for arranging circuit elements, the other end of the main shaft is fixedly connected to an impeller of the rotor assembly 1300 to drive the impeller to rotate, the impeller cover 1400 is fixedly connected or integrally formed with one end of the casing 1100 and covers the impeller, and the guide impeller 1500 is fixedly connected to the impeller cover 1400.

In fig. 1 and 2, the housing 1100 internally houses a stator assembly 1200 and a rotor assembly 1300. Specifically, the casing 1100 includes a hollow mounting post 1110 and a plurality of supporting portions 1120 arranged around the mounting post 1110. To ensure the structural strength and stability of the fan 1000, the plurality of supporting portions 1120 are symmetrically and equally spaced around the mounting post 1110 and integrally connected with the mounting post 1110 to form a stable support for the central mounting post 1110. A wall region between any two support portions 1120 of the mounting column 1110 is opened with a stator mounting opening 1111 along an axial direction thereof, that is, a plurality of stator mounting openings 1111 are opened on a wall of the mounting column 1110 at equal intervals and symmetrically for fitting a plurality of stator elements 1210 of the stator assembly 1200.

The mounting post 1110 is preferably a cylindrical or cylinder-like structure.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 1, the housing 1100 includes 4 supporting portions 1120, 4 stator mounting openings 1111 are formed between the 4 supporting portions 1120, which are spaced and symmetrically distributed, for fitting 4 stator elements.

second bobbins

1212A and 1212B, as shown in fig. 6) is detachably fixed to stator core 1211 so that windings 1213 can form a stator coil around bobbin 1212 (or stator core 1211).

Fig. 7 is a schematic structural view of stator core 1211. The stator core 1211 has a "pi" shaped structure formed by a winding portion 1214, a first tooth 1215A, and a second tooth 1215B that are parallel to each other. Wherein the wire winding portion 1214 may form a protrusion along the left and right sides or at the rear, it is preferable herein that the wire winding portion 1214 forms a first arc-shaped extension 1216A and a second arc-shaped extension 1216B along the arc-shaped structure extending along the left and right sides.

And the wall surfaces (i.e., the stator mounting positioning surfaces 1112) at both sides of the stator mounting opening 1111 of the mounting post 1110 have the same curvature as the first and second arc surfaces, so that the stator mounting positioning surfaces 1112 are seamlessly attached to the first and second arc surfaces 1216A 'and 1216B', thereby maintaining high concentricity of the fourth and fifth arc surfaces 1215A 'and 1215B' of the ends of the first and

second teeth

1215A and 1215B with the rotor permanent magnet (described in detail later) of the rotor assembly 1300, and at the same time, suppressing radial movement of the stator core 1211 toward the permanent magnet. Wherein, the ends of the first and

second teeth

1215A, 1215B are provided with first and

second protrusions

1217A, 1217B, respectively, the first protrusion 1217A protrudes from the inner wall of the first tooth 1215A toward the second tooth 1215B, and the second protrusion 1217B protrudes from the inner wall of the second tooth 1215B toward the first tooth 1215A.

As shown in fig. 7, the distance between the first arcuate extension 1216A and the first tooth 1215A is d1, and the distance between the second arcuate extension 1216B and the second tooth 1215B is d2, preferably d1 is equal to d 2.

The stator core 1211 has a laminated structure and is formed by laminating electrical silicon steel sheets using a tool mold. The sheets may be fixed together by welding or by applying an adhesive.

Compared with the prior art, the stator core 1211 with the first arc-shaped extension 1216A and the first tooth 1215A has a simpler processing process, and the extension increases the surface area of the stator core 1211 exposed in the air, thereby facilitating heat dissipation.

Fig. 9 is a schematic structural diagram of a rotor assembly 1300 according to the present invention. As shown, the rotor assembly 1300 includes a shaft 1310, at least one permanent magnet 1320 disposed circumferentially around the shaft 1310, a pair of balancing rings 1330 positioned on either side of the permanent magnet 1320, a first bearing 1340, a second bearing 1350, and an impeller 1360. The first bearing 1340 and the second bearing 1350 are installed on the rotating shaft 1310, and the permanent magnets 1320 and the balancing rings 1330 are on both sides, i.e., outside the pair of balancing rings 1330, respectively. The impeller 1360 is fixedly disposed at one end of the rotating shaft 1310, and the rotor sensor magnet 1370 is installed at the other end of the rotating shaft 1310.

As shown in fig. 3 and 4, in the casing 1100, the mounting column 1110 is a hollow structure, the rotor assembly 1300 is penetratingly disposed in the mounting column 1110, and has a first bearing mounting seat 1113 and a second bearing mounting seat 1114 at both ends thereof, and an inner wall thereof is an annular rotor bearing mounting and positioning surface 1115. When the rotor assembly 1300 is mounted within the mounting post 1110, the first bearing 1340 is disposed within the first bearing mount 1113 by engaging the rotor bearing mounting locating surface 1115, and the second bearing 1350 is disposed within the second bearing mount 1114 by engaging the rotor bearing mounting locating surface 1115.

Here, the connection between the bearing and the corresponding bearing mount can be realized in various ways, for example by an adhesive connection, a snap connection or a screw connection. In this embodiment, the second bearing mounting seat 1114 is fixedly connected to the second bearing 1350, preferably fixed by an adhesive, so as to absorb an axial force, thereby preventing axial movement, maintaining good performance of the fan during high-speed rotation, and prolonging the service life of the fan. In this embodiment, the first bearing mount 1113 is flexibly mounted with the first bearing 1340, and preferably, the inner surface of the first bearing mount 1113 is rubber coated to effectively withstand and absorb radial forces encountered during operation of the motor.

Referring to fig. 2 and 8, in the assembled state, the first tooth 1215A and the second tooth 1215B of the stator element 1211 extend into the stator mounting opening 1111, and the first arc surface 1216A 'and the second arc surface 1216B' at both ends thereof are seamlessly adhered to the stator mounting positioning surfaces 1112 at both sides of the stator mounting opening 1111 by, for example, a high temperature adhesive. It should be appreciated that during this process, the curvature of all of the stator mounting locating surfaces 1112 of the mounting posts 1110 should be configured to maintain a high degree of concentricity with the rotor bearing mounting locating surface 1115 to reduce unbalanced magnetic pull forces and the resulting noise due to the low relative positional accuracy of the stator and

rotor assemblies

1200, 1300.

Further, as shown in fig. 5, the housing 1100 is fixedly coupled or integrally formed with an impeller cup 1400, and the impeller cup 1400 receives an impeller of the rotor assembly 1300 therein. The impeller shroud is frustum shaped with a smaller diameter end connected to the housing 1100 and a larger diameter end fixedly connected to the guide impeller 1500. The intrados surface 1410 of the impeller shroud 1400 is smoothly curved and maintains a constant clearance with the impeller 1360, and the intrados surface 1410 should be configured to maintain a high degree of concentricity with the curvature of the stator mounting location surface 1112 and the rotor bearing mounting location surface 1115 described above to further increase the accuracy of the relative positional relationship between the stator assembly 1200 and the rotor assembly 1300.

In the embodiments provided herein, the support portion 1120 of the mounting post 1110 may have any shape. Preferably, as shown in fig. 3 and 4, the supporting portion 1120 of the mounting post 1110 includes an integrally formed supporting surface 1121 and supporting legs 1122 at two ends of the supporting surface 1121, wherein the supporting surface 1121 serves as an outer wall surface of the casing 1100, and the supporting legs 1122 are integrally connected with the mounting post 1110. In each support portion 1120, the support surface 1121, the two support feet 1122, and the outer wall surface of the mounting post 1110 together surround to form a support portion cavity 1123.

The casing 1100 is constructed in an integrated structure, so that the accumulative assembly error caused by a separate design in the prior art and the increase of the volume and the weight of the fan can be reduced. Alternatively, the housing 1100 may be fabricated using a variety of known existing processes, such as a casting process, a 3D printing process, and injection molding.

In the assembled state, the stator elements 1210 are disposed in the stator mounting openings between adjacent support portions 1120, and the support legs 1122 also provide protection for the stator elements 1210 therebetween from interference and damage from external devices.

Preferably, as shown in fig. 1 and 8, inside the support part cavity 1123 (preferably by the high temperature adhesive) is filled with sound-deadening cotton 1124, the structure of which is shown in fig. 10, so as to absorb noise generated by the fan. More preferably, the sound attenuating cotton 1124 extends through the axial filling of the support portion cavities.

It is further preferred that the cross-section of the strut cavity 1123 is fan-shaped, i.e. the cross-section of the strut 1120 is fan-shaped (fan-facing outward), so that the strut 1120 also increases the volume of the filled sound-damping cotton 1124 while providing better protection for the given subassembly 1200, further enhancing the noise-damping effect of the fan.

In a preferred embodiment, a grid 1125 is disposed at one end of the supporting portion cavity 1123 to increase the fixing strength of the sound-absorbing cotton 1124, and increase the noise-absorbing area of the sound-absorbing cotton 1124, so as to improve the noise reduction effect. Preferably, the grid 1125 is placed at the bottom end of the support cavity 1123, i.e. the end near the impeller 1360, since the suction force is greater there, which allows a better noise-canceling effect.

In another preferred embodiment, as shown in fig. 1, the length of the mounting post 1110 along the opened stator mounting opening 1111 is greater than the length of the stator core 1211 of the stator element mounted therein in the axial direction, so that the stator mounting opening 1111 has air openings (i.e., an air intake port 1111A and an air exhaust port 1111B) between both ends thereof and the stator core 1211, respectively. Specifically, as shown by the arrows in fig. 11, air may enter the air gap 1700 between the stator assembly and the rotor assembly from the air inlet 1111A at the lower side of the stator mounting opening 1111 (the air channel in the air gap 1700 is substantially linear), exit from the air outlet 1111B at the upper side of the stator mounting opening 1111, and then be exhausted out of the fan through the inner arc surface 1410 of the impeller housing 1400, taking away a large amount of heat of the air gap 1700, reducing the temperature of the stator assembly 1200 and the rotor assembly 1300. And the outer facing area of the stator element 1210 is exposed directly to air without any other parts blocking it after the stator assembly 1200 is installed. During the operation of the wind turbine, a large amount of wind flows through the outer surface of the stator assembly and the air gap 1700, so that all heat generating components (mainly the stator assembly 1200 and the rotor assembly 1300) inside the wind turbine can be sufficiently dissipated. Meanwhile, a small amount of wind flows through the bearings at the two ends of the motor to take away heat generated by the operation of the bearings.

According to the fan with the fan positioning design and the dust collector comprising the fan, the shell is integrally formed, so that accumulated errors caused by split design and muscle increasing of the volume and the weight of the motor can be reduced; the relative position precision of the stator assembly and the rotor assembly is improved, unbalanced magnetic tension generated by low relative position precision of the stator assembly and the rotor assembly and noise generated by unbalanced magnetic tension are reduced, and the motor efficiency is improved; the noise of the motor can be further reduced by the design of the silencing cotton, and the user experience is improved; an approximately linear air duct is formed in the fan, so that the cooling effect is improved, and the service life of the fan is prolonged; this fan allows earlier to install rotor subassembly back, again from the casing outside installation stator module, the inspection and the maintenance in fan later stage of being convenient for.
