Abstract
To providing a blower that can efficiently cool a plurality of motor coils, which is a large heating source of a blushless motor, by directly blowing and circulating a part of blown air generated by the rotation of an impeller to the motor coils through an air blowing channel. When a motor is started, brown air is obtained from an air blowing port provided in a part of a flange portion so as to be opened to a blower case, directly blown to the motor coils formed around pole teeth of a stator core via an air blowing channel communicating with the air blowing port to cool the motor coils, and circulated to an impeller to perform radiation.
Claims4
A blower comprising:
- a rotor shaft;
- a rotor assembled to the rotor shaft;
- an impeller assembled to the rotor shaft concentrically with the rotor and provided immediately above the rotor;
- a blower case housing the impeller;
- a motor;
- a driving circuit for driving and controlling the motor;
- a motor board having the driving circuit;
- a flange portion rotatably supporting the rotor shaft;
- a motor case to which the motor board is assembled, the motor case being integrally assembled to the blower case with the flange portion sandwiched therebetween;
- a stator core;
- a plurality of pole teeth;
- and
- a plurality of motor coils formed around the pole teeth of the stator core,
- wherein an air blowing port is provided in a part of the flange portion so as to be opened to the blower case,
- an air blowing channel communicating with the air blowing port is formed between the motor board and the flange portion, which are assembled to the motor case,
- a heat exchanger, which is mounted on the motor board so as to be exposed toward the blower case from an opening of the flange portion, is provided in the air blowing channel and
- heat radiation is performed by starting the motor, obtaining a part of blown air by rotation of the impeller through the air blowing port, and directly blowing the blown air to the plurality of motor coils through the air blowing channel, to which the heat exchanger is provided, and circulating the blown air to the impeller.
