Motor fan and guard for directing coolant air

An electric motor assembly comprising:

• a stator;
• a rotor rotatable relative to the stator;
• a motor housing in which the stator and rotor are at least partly housed, with the motor housing presenting an exterior motor surface;
• a rotatable shaft associated with the rotor for rotational movement therewith, with the rotatable shaft extending along a rotational axis;
• a radial fan mounted on the rotatable shaft exteriorly of the motor housing and rotatable with the shaft to direct airflow in a radially outward direction;
• and
• an air scoop extending radially outwardly relative to the radial fan and axially to receive radial airflow from the radial fan and turn the airflow axially to flow along the exterior motor surface,
• said air scoop including circumferentially spaced apart axially extending airflow vanes to guide the airflow as the airflow is turned axially to flow along an axial flow direction,
• said radial fan including a plurality of fan blades that extend radially outwardly relative to the rotational axis, with the fan blades extending along an axial blade dimension,
• each of said airflow vanes including a first portion aligned axially with at least part of the axial blade dimension and a second portion extending continuously from the first portion and axially beyond the fan blades in the axial flow direction.
