Abstract

A motor, including: a motor body, the motor body including two ends; a damping ring, the damping ring including a bottom; a mounting bracket; a locking device; a control box; and a connection housing, the connection housing including two ends, and a sidewall. The damping ring is disposed on each end of the motor body. The bottom of the damping ring is supported by the mounting bracket. The damping ring is fixed on the mounting bracket by the locking device. One end of the connection housing is connected to a bottom of the motor body; the other end of the connection housing is connected to a top of the control box. A plurality of heat dissipation holes is arranged on the sidewall of the connection housing.
