COOLING STRUCTURE OF VERTICAL MOTOR - A simplified explanation of the abstract

This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240106299 titled 'COOLING STRUCTURE OF VERTICAL MOTOR

Simplified Explanation

The abstract describes a vertical motor with a cooling structure for an electrical operation machine. The motor includes a driving shaft, rotor, stator, winding, housing, and oil sump for accumulating a cooling fluid to cool the motor during operation.

  • Driving shaft with a rotational axis arranged vertically
  • Rotor rotating with the driving shaft
  • Stator arranged around the rotor
  • Winding arranged around the stator
  • Housing accommodating the driving shaft, rotor, and stator
  • Oil sump on the bottom portion of the housing for accumulating cooling fluid
  • Inner peripheral side wall of the oil sump vertically arranged with respect to the housing bottom portion

Potential Applications

The vertical motor with a cooling structure can be used in various electrical operation machines such as pumps, compressors, and fans where efficient cooling is required to maintain optimal performance.

Problems Solved

1. Overheating of the motor during operation 2. Ensuring longevity and reliability of the motor components

Benefits

1. Improved cooling efficiency 2. Extended lifespan of the motor 3. Enhanced performance under heavy-duty operations

Potential Commercial Applications

Optimized Vertical Motor Cooling Structure for Enhanced Performance

Possible Prior Art

Prior art may include traditional cooling systems for vertical motors, such as air cooling or external cooling mechanisms.
