Electric pump
An electric pump includes a motor unit including a stator, a rotor core disposed inside the stator and a shaft coupled to the rotor core; a first pump unit and a second pump unit which are coupled using the shaft as a coaxial axis; a first housing in which a motor housing receiving the motor unit and a pump housing including a first pump accommodating part are integrally formed, the first pump unit being inserted in the first pump accommodating part; a second housing coupled to the first housing to cover the first pump accommodating part and including a second pump accommodating part in which the second pump unit is inserted; and a cover unit coupled to the second housing to cover the second pump accommodating part.
1. An electric pump comprising:
a motor unit including a stator, a rotor core disposed inside the stator, and a shaft coupled to the rotor core;
a first pump unit and a second pump unit which are coupled using the shaft as a coaxial axis;
a first housing in which a motor housing receiving the motor unit and a pump housing including a first pump accommodating part are integrally formed, the first pump unit being inserted in the first pump accommodating part;
a second housing coupled to the first housing to cover the first pump accommodating part and including a second pump accommodating part in which the second pump unit is inserted; and
a cover unit coupled to the second housing to cover the second pump accommodating part,
wherein each of the first pump unit and the second pump unit comprises an internal rotor coupled to the shaft and having an external lob formed thereon and an external rotor disposed outside the internal rotor and having an internal lobe formed to be engaged with the external lob,
wherein the second pump accommodating part is formed on a front face of the second housing and a rear face of the second housing covers the first pump accommodating part,
wherein the first pump accommodating part and the rear face of the second housing have a first-stage inlet port and a first-stage outlet port formed such that the first-stage inlet port and the first-stage outlet port are separated from each other, and
wherein the second pump accommodating part and an inner face of the cover unit have a second-stage inlet port and a second-stage outlet port formed such that the second-stage inlet port and the second-stage outlet port are separated from each other,
wherein the first housing includes a first-stage inlet channel connected to the first-stage inlet port and a first-stage outlet channel connected to the first-stage outlet port, and the second housing includes a second-stage inlet channel passing through the front face and the rear face to cause the first-stage outlet port and the second-stage inlet port to communicate with each other and a second-stage outlet channel connected to the second-stage outlet port.
2. The electric pump of claim 1 , wherein a mounting part is integrally formed with the motor housing and the pump housing.
3. The electric pump of claim 2 , wherein an entrance of the first-stage outlet channel is formed at an end portion of the first-stage outlet port and an exit of the first-stage outlet channel is formed in a bottom face of the mounting part.
4. The electric pump of claim 2 , wherein an entrance of the second-stage outlet channel is formed at an end portion of the second-stage outlet port and an exit of the second-stage outlet channel is formed in a bottom face of the mounting part.
