The counter weight 12 is annular around the center axis CA, and in the present embodiment, the counter weight 12 is provided on the radially outer surface of the shaft 10 at one axial side and the other axial side with respect to the magnet 11.
< 1-2-2. stator
The stator 2 drives and rotates the rotor 1. The stator 2 is annular about the center axis CA, and covers the rotor 1 from the radially outer side. The stator 2 includes a stator core 21, an insulator 22, and a plurality of coil portions 23.
The stator core 21 is an annular magnetic body centered on the center axis CA, and in the present embodiment, the stator core 21 is a laminated body in which a plurality of electromagnetic steel plates are laminated in the axial direction. The stator core 21 has a core back 211, teeth 212, and slots S. In other words, the stator 2 includes the core back 211, the tooth 212, and the slot S. The core back 211 is annular about the center axis CA and is held by the radially inner surface of the 1 st case 31. The teeth 212 are plural and arranged in the circumferential direction. Each tooth portion 212 extends radially inward from the core back 211. More specifically, the tooth portion 212 includes: an arm portion 2121 extending radially inward from the core back 211; and a tip portion (not shown) extending from a radially inner end portion of the arm portion 2121 to both sides in the circumferential direction.

More specifically, in each coil portion 23, the lead is wound around the arm portion 2121 of the tooth portion 212 via the insulator 22. The ends of the wires are connected to the substrate 5.
< 1-2-3. Shell >
Next, the housing 3 is formed in a cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction, and covers the stator 2 from the outside in the radial direction. In the present embodiment, the housing 3 is made of a non-magnetic metal such as aluminum, and accommodates one axial side portion of the stator 2. However, the present invention is not limited to this example, and the housing 3 may be made of resin. The casing 3 includes a 1 st casing 31, a 2 nd casing 32, stationary blades 33, and an inner tube portion 34.
The 1 st housing 31 has a covered cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction, and covers the stator 2 from the radially outer side. A 1 st opening 31a is provided at one side of the 1 st housing 31 in the axial direction. The specific structure of the 1 st case 31 and the 1 st opening 31a will be described later.
The 2 nd housing 32 has a cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction. The 2 nd housing 32 is provided radially outward of the 1 st housing 31. The 2 nd casing 32 is connected to the radially outer end portions of the stationary blades 33.
The stator blades 33 are ribs connecting the radially outer surface of the 1 st casing 31 and the radially inner surface of the 2 nd casing 32. The stationary blade 33 is positioned on the other axial side than the rotor blade 201. The stationary blades 33 are connected to the radially outer surface of the 1 st casing 31 and extend radially outward. That is, the radially inner end portions of the stationary blades 33 are connected to the radially outer surface of the 1 st casing 31. The radially outer end of the stationary blade 33 is connected to the radially inner surface of the 2 nd casing 32.
In the present embodiment, the axial one-side end of the radially inner end of the stationary blade 33 is located at the same axial position as the axial one-side end of the 1 st casing 31, and more specifically, the axial one-side end of the radially inner end of the stationary blade 33 is located at the same axial position as the axial one-side end of the truncated cone cylinder portion 331a described later. However, the present invention is not limited to this example, and the one axial end of the radially inner end of the stationary blade 33 may be positioned on the one axial side of the one axial end of the 1 st casing 31.
Due to the rotation of the impeller 200, a part of the airflow F directed to the other axial side by the driven blade 201 hits the one axial end of the stationary blade 33. By positioning the one axial end of the radially inner end of the stationary blade 33 at the same axial position as the one axial end of the 1 st casing 31 or at a position closer to the one axial end than the one axial end of the 1 st casing 31, it is possible to suppress the flow F in which the one partial flow Fa hitting the one axial end of the stationary blade 33 disturbs the driven blade 201 toward the other axial end. Further, the reduction in the air flow amount and air pressure of the axial fan 500, the generation of vibration and noise, and the like due to the disturbance of the airflow F can be suppressed.
For example, a part of the airflow Fa hitting the one axial end of the stationary blade 33 is separated from the remaining part of the airflow Fb flowing between the 1 st casing 31 and the 2 nd casing 32, and flows radially inward along the one axial end of the stationary blade 33. Here, the one axial end of the radially inner end of the stationary blade 33 is located at the same axial position as the one axial end of the 1 st casing 31 or at one axial position from the one axial end of the 1 st casing, so that the radially inward airflow Fa can smoothly flow between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31 without being obstructed by the radially outer surface of the 1 st casing 31. The airflow Fa can flow into the 1 st casing 31 through the 1 st opening 31a provided at one axial end of the 1 st casing 31 without being retained or flowing backward between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31. Further, since there is no stagnation or backflow as described above, it is possible to prevent the new airflow Fa from hardly flowing between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31. Therefore, the flow F that is sent from the driven blade 201 and flows to the other axial direction can be suppressed from being disturbed by the partial flow Fa that hits the one axial end of the stationary blade 33. Further, the flow of air flowing backward from between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31 can be prevented from disturbing the airflow F flowing in the other axial direction from the driven vane 201.
Further, the stator 2 provided inside the 1 st case 31 can be cooled by the airflow Fa flowing inside the 1 st case 31.
In the present embodiment, the radially outer portion of the one axial end of the stationary blade 33 is positioned on the other axial side than the radially inner end of the 1 st casing 31. However, the present invention is not limited to this example, and all of the axial end portions of the stationary blades 33 may be located at the same axial position as the axial end portion of the 1 st casing 31, and more specifically, the axial end portions of the stationary blades 33 may be located at the same axial position as the axial end portion of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311 a. Alternatively, all the axial end portions of the stationary blades 33 may be positioned on the axial side of the axial end portion of the 1 st casing 31, more specifically, the axial end portions of the stationary blades 33 may be positioned on the axial side of the axial end portion of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311 a. Thus, the airflow Fa hitting the one axial end of the stationary blade 33 more easily flows between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31.
As shown in fig. 2, the radially inner end of the one axial end of the stationary blade 33 is smoothly connected to the 1 st casing 31, and particularly, to the one axial end of the 1 st casing 31. More specifically, one of the axial one-side end surface and the radial inner end surface of the stationary blade 33 is connected to the axial one-side end surface of the 1 st casing 31. At this time, for example, the slope of a tangent line perpendicular to the circumferential direction at the connection portion of the two continuously changes from the one surface of the stationary blade 33 toward the one axial end surface of the 1 st casing 31. In other words, at the connection portion between the first and second casing members, the slope of the tangent line perpendicular to the circumferential direction of the one surface of the stationary blade 33 matches the slope of the tangent line perpendicular to the circumferential direction of the one axial end surface of the 1 st casing 31.
Thus, the airflow Fa that hits against the one axial end of the stationary blade 33 and flows between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31 is less likely to be obstructed by the radially outer surface of the 1 st casing 31. Therefore, the airflow Fa can flow more smoothly between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31.
Next, the inner cylindrical portion 34 supports the 1 st bearing 340 provided at a position radially inward of the 1 st housing 31. The inner tube portion 34 has a tubular shape extending in the axial direction. The inner tube portion 34 is connected to a radially inner end portion of a support portion 312 described later. The 1 st bearing 340 is provided on a radially inner end surface of the inner cylinder portion 34. The inner cylinder portion 34 rotatably supports one axial portion of the shaft 10 via the 1 st bearing 340.
At least a radially outer end portion of the other axial end portion of the inner cylindrical portion 34 is axially opposed to the tooth portion 212 of the stator core 21, that is, axially opposed to the coil portion 23. Thus, the air flow Fa that hits the radially outer surface of the inner cylinder portion 34 and faces the other axial side contacts the coil portion 23 provided in the tooth portion 212. This enables the coil section 23 to be cooled more efficiently.
The inner tube portion 34 has a protrusion 341. The projection 341 projects radially outward from the radially outer surface of the inner cylindrical portion 34 and extends in the circumferential direction. The projection 341 is located on one axial side of the one axial end of the 1 st housing 31, and more specifically, the projection 341 is located on one axial side of the one axial end of the truncated cone cylinder 311 a. The protrusion 341 is preferably located on one axial side of the other axial end of the impeller base 202. Thus, the airflow Fa hitting the radially outer surface of the inner tube portion 34 is less likely to flow in one axial direction due to the projection 341. Therefore, the airflow Fa can be more efficiently guided to the 1 st opening 31 a. Therefore, the disturbance of the airflow F can be suppressed. Further, the projection 341 may be positioned at an axial position overlapping the other axial end of the impeller base 202 when viewed in the radial direction, or may be positioned on the other axial side from the other axial end of the impeller base 202.
< 1-2-3-1. the 1 st shell >)
Next, a specific structure of the 1 st case 31 will be described. The 1 st housing 31 has a cylindrical portion 311, a support portion 312, and a 1 st opening 31 a. In other words, the housing 3 has the cylindrical portion 311, the support portion 312, and the 1 st opening 31 a.
The cylindrical portion 311 has a cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction. The cylindrical portion 311 has a truncated cone cylindrical portion 311a and a cylindrical portion 311 b. In other words, the 1 st housing 31 has a truncated cone cylinder portion 311a and a cylinder portion 311 b.
The truncated cone cylindrical portion 311a has a cylindrical shape extending in the axial direction, and in the present embodiment, the truncated cone cylindrical portion 311a is a portion on one axial side of the 1 st housing 31. The outer shape of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311a is a truncated cone shape. That is, the outer diameter of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311a in the radial direction increases from one axial side to the other axial side. Therefore, the airflow F flowing toward the other axial direction between the 1 st casing 31 and the 2 nd casing 32 is less likely to be disturbed.
The axial end of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311a is radially opposed to the axial end of the inner cylinder portion 34. That is, the axial end of the 1 st housing 31 and the axial end of the inner tube 34 are radially opposed to each other. In this way, the airflow Fa flowing radially inward between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31 hits the radially outer surface of the inner cylindrical portion 34, and the flow direction becomes axial. Thereby, the airflow Fa can be guided to the 1 st opening 31a of the 1 st housing 31.
One axial end of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311a is covered with the impeller base 202. The radially outer end of the circular truncated cone portion 311a is located at the same radial position as the radially outer end of the impeller base 202. In other words, the impeller base 202 covers one axial end of the 1 st casing 31. Further, the radially outer end portion of the impeller base 202 is located at the same radial position as the radially outer end portion of the 1 st housing 31. In this way, the airflow F flowing from the driven vane 201 toward the other axial direction tends to flow more smoothly toward the radially outer surface of the truncated cone portion 311a of the 1 st casing 31 in the vicinity of the radially outer end portion of the impeller base 202. Therefore, the airflow F is less likely to be disturbed at the axial position on the other axial side than the impeller base 202 and on the one axial side than the truncated cone cylindrical portion 311a of the 1 st housing 31.
The cylindrical portion 311b is cylindrical and extends in the axial direction. In the present embodiment, the cylindrical portion 311b is a portion on the other axial side of the 1 st housing 31. The cylindrical portion 311b extends axially to the other side from the other axial end of the truncated cone cylindrical portion 311 a. The outer diameter of the cylindrical portion 311b in the radial direction is constant.
One axial end portion of the radially outer surface of the cylindrical portion 311b is smoothly connected to the other axial end portion of the radially outer surface of the truncated cone cylindrical portion 311 a. The radially outer side surface of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311a is connected to the radially outer side surface of the cylindrical portion 311 b. In other words, the slope of a tangent line perpendicular to the circumferential direction at the connecting portion of the two continuously changes from the circular truncated cone cylinder portion 311a toward the cylinder portion 311 b. Thus, the airflow Fb flowing toward the other axial direction along the radially outer surface of the 1 st housing 31 is less likely to be disturbed in the vicinity of the connection portion between the truncated cone cylinder portion 311a and the cylindrical portion 311 b.
Next, the support portion 312 extends radially inward from one axial end of the truncated cone cylinder portion 311 a. The radially inner end of the support 312 is connected to the cylindrical inner tube 34, and in the present embodiment, the radially inner end of the support 312 is connected to the radially outer surface of the inner tube 34. The support portion 312 is connected to the radially inner surface of the 1 st shell 31 and extends radially inward.
Next, as described above, the 1 st opening 31a is provided on one side in the axial direction of the 1 st housing 31. The 1 st opening 31a allows the axial end of the 1 st housing 31 and the impeller 200 to communicate with the groove S of the stator 2. The 1 st opening 31a is surrounded by the radial inner surface of the cylinder portion 311, the support portion 312, and the radial outer surface of the inner cylinder portion 34. In other words, the 1 st opening 31a is divided into a plurality by the support portion 312.
The number of the 1 st openings 31a and the number of the stationary blades 33 are preferably coprime. In this way, a greater number of combinations of the facing arrangement patterns of the 1 st opening 31a and the stationary blades 33 can be achieved than in the case where both are not mutually homogenous. Therefore, the pattern of turbulence of the airflow Fa caused by the arrangement pattern becomes more, and therefore the pattern of turbulence of the airflow Fa generated in the vicinity of the 1 st opening 31a does not overlap, and interference between them can be reduced.
The 1 st opening 31a overlaps the tooth portion 212 of the stator core 21 when viewed from the axial direction. More specifically, the 1 st opening 31a overlaps the arm portion 2121 of the tooth portion 212. Thus, the air flow Fa flowing into the 1 st opening 31a from between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31 directly contacts the coil portion 23 of the arm portion 2121 wound around the tooth portion 212. This enables the coil unit 23 to be cooled more efficiently by the air flow Fa.
In the present embodiment, one axial end of the connection portion between the 1 st casing 31 and a part of the stationary blades 33 overlaps the 1 st opening 31a in the radial direction. However, the present invention is not limited to this example, and one axial end of the connection portion between the 1 st casing 31 and all the stationary blades 33 may overlap the 1 st opening 31a in the radial direction. That is, the 1 st opening 31a may be radially overlapped with one axial end of the connection portion between the 1 st casing 31 and the at least one stationary blade 33. Thus, the airflow Fa that flows radially inward while hitting the one axial end of the stationary blade 33 can flow more smoothly between the impeller 200 and the 1 st casing 31 without changing the direction in the circumferential direction.
< 1-2-4. housing cover >
In the present embodiment, the housing cover 4 is made of resin, is attached to the other axial end of the 1 st housing 31, and covers the other axial end of the 1 st housing 31. The housing cover 4 accommodates the other axial end of the stator 2. The 2 nd bearing 40 is mounted on the housing cover 4. The housing cover 4 rotatably supports the other axial end of the shaft 10 via a 2 nd bearing 40. Further, the case cover 4 is provided with a 2 nd opening 4 a. The 2 nd opening 4a is fluidly connected to the radially inner side of the 1 st shell 31, in particular, the slot S of the stator 2. The airflow Fa flows into the groove S from between the impeller 200 and the one axial end of the truncated cone cylinder 331a through the 1 st opening 31a, and is sent out from the groove S to the outside of the casing cover 4 through the 2 nd opening 4 a.
