An electronic cooling water pump with a floating impeller for a motor vehicle. The mechanism includes a support or housing, a stator, a water pump cover, a socket injection molding, a controller (or circuit board), and a rear cover. A rotor impeller injection molding is positioned at the center of the stator and floats when the water pump is operating. The magnetic field generated by the stator and the magnetic field generated by the permanent magnets in the rotor impeller injection molding turn the motor impeller injection molding at a certain rotation speed, so that the impeller does work on coolant, and also make the rotor impeller injection molding float automatically in the center of the stator. Bearings are eliminated and friction losses and pump noise are minimized.
A floating impeller structure for a motor vehicle cooling water pump, comprising a stator member , an electric machine shaft member, a rotor impeller injection molding, and a plurality of permanent magnets wherein said rotor impeller molding has an open central core for positioning of said shaft member;
