Abstract
An integrated power module of an electric scooter includes a motor unit and a transmission unit. The motor unit includes a motor case, in which a stator, a rotor and a shaft are provided. A board is fixed to an end of the motor case, and a holder is fixed to the board. The transmission unit has a lid connected to the board to form a lubricant chamber. The motor shaft passes through the holder to the lubricant chamber. The transmission unit further includes a transmission shaft, which is connected to the motor shaft through a pair of meshed gears. The motor shaft is provided with a spiral slot to force lubricant in the holder flowing to the lubricant room instead of flowing to the motor unit when the motor shaft is rotating.
Claims10
An integrated power module of an electric scooter, comprising:
- a motor unit including a motor case, in which a rotor, a stator, and a motor shaft are provided, wherein the motor case has a board at an end thereof, and the board is provided with a bore;
- a holder, which is connected to the board, has a through hole aligned with the bore of the board;
- the motor shaft passes through the bore of the board and the through hole of the holder;
- and
- a transmission unit including a lid, a transmission shaft, a first gear, and a second gear, wherein the lid is connected to the motor case to form a lubricant room between the board and the lid;
- the lubricant room is filled with a lubricant;
- both the transmission shaft and the motor shaft have at least a portion received in the lubricant room;
- the first gear is is received in the lubricant room and connected to the motor shaft, and the second gear is is received in the lubricant room and connected to the transmission shaft;
- the first gear is meshed with the second gear, so that the transmission shaft is driven to rotate by the motor unit;
- wherein the motor shaft is provided with a spiral slot, a portion of which is received in the holder and the rest portion of which is received in the lubricant room;
- a spiraling direction of the spiral slot from an end in the holder to an end in the lubricant room is the same as a rotating direction of the motor shaft.
