Abstract

A flow guide for an electric motor which includes a stator having a stator main body and at least one end winding. The stator main body has an end face in an axial direction of the electric motor, and the end winding is formed on the end face of the stator main body. The flow guide includes a first flow-guiding ring body, a second flow-guiding ring body, and an annular flow-guiding part that connects the first flow-guiding ring body to the second flow-guiding ring body. The flow guide is a semi-closed structure and is used for at least partially surrounding the end winding.

Claims (22)

1 . A flow guide for an electric motor, wherein the electric motor comprises a stator, and the stator comprises a stator main body and at least one end winding, and the stator main body has an end face in an axial direction of the electric motor, and the end winding is formed on the end face of the stator main body,

wherein the flow guide comprises a first flow-guiding ring body, a second flow-guiding ring body, and an annular flow-guiding part that connects the first flow-guiding ring body to the second flow-guiding ring body,

wherein the flow guide is a semi-closed structure and is used for at least partially surrounding the end winding, and the first flow-guiding ring body is located at a radial outer side of the second flow-guiding ring body and surrounds the second flow-guiding ring body, and the first flow-guiding ring body is provided with several flow-guiding holes arranged on a circumferential annular face thereof, and at least one opening is provided on the annular flow-guiding part.

2 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein a cavity that at least partially surrounds the end winding is formed between the first flow-guiding ring body, the second flow-guiding ring body and the annular flow-guiding part.

3 . The flow guide according to claim 2 , wherein the first flow-guiding ring body is located at a radial outer side of the end winding, the second flow-guiding ring body is located at a radial inner side of the end winding, and the annular flow-guiding part is opposite to the end face of the stator main body of the electric motor.

4 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein the first flow-guiding ring body comprises a baffle plate that extends circumferentially, and the baffle plate is integrally formed with the first flow-guiding ring body.

5 . The flow guide according to claim 4 , wherein, in the axial direction of the electric motor, the baffle plate is remote from the stator main body of the electric motor relative to the flow-guiding holes.

6 . The flow guide according to claim 4 , wherein one side of the baffle plate that is near the annular flow-guiding part is provided with a slot that extends circumferentially.

7 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein a circumferential edge of the first flow-guiding ring body that is remote from the annular flow-guiding part is provided with a slot.

8 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein one or more protrusions are provided along the circumferential annular face of the first flow-guiding ring body, and the protrusion extends radially away from the second flow-guiding ring body, and the protrusion being arranged at an interval from the flow-guiding holes in the circumferential direction.

9 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein the flow guide is integrally formed.

10 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein the first flow-guiding ring body, the second flow-guiding ring body and the annular flow-guiding part are secured together by thermal welding or ultrasonic welding.

11 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein the first flow-guiding ring body, the second flow-guiding ring body and the annular flow-guiding part are made of a thermoplastic.

12 . The flow guide according to claim 1 , wherein the flow guide is engaged and mated with an outer shell of the electric motor.

13 . An electric motor, wherein the electric motor comprises the flow guide according to claim 1 .

14 . An electric drive assembly system, wherein in that the electric drive assembly system comprises the electric motor according to claim 13 .

15 . A vehicle, wherein the vehicle comprises the electric drive assembly system according to claim 14 .

16 . The flow guide according to claim 2 , wherein the flow guide is integrally formed.

17 . The flow guide according to claim 2 , wherein the first flow-guiding ring body, the second flow-guiding ring body and the annular flow-guiding part are secured together by thermal welding or ultrasonic welding.

18 . The flow guide according to claim 2 , wherein the first flow-guiding ring body, the second flow-guiding ring body and the annular flow-guiding part are made of a thermoplastic.

19 . An electric motor, wherein the electric motor comprises the flow guide according to claim 2 .

20 . The flow guide according to claim 3 , wherein the flow guide is integrally formed.
