DESC:FIELD OF INVENTION
The present invention relates to a split casing for a motor. More particularly, the present invention relates to a split casing for motor used in mixer grinder to ensure fast cooling of the motor. Further, the present invention relates to a split casing for motor provided with a cooling ring having fins that create more area for the cold air to pass through, thereby attaining fast cooling of the motor. Advantageously, the present invention ensures fast cooling of the motor thereby improving efficiency, performance and life of the motor.
BACKGROUND OF INVENTION
Generally, a mixer grinder has an outer cover, a main body, a mixer grinder jar positioned placed on top of the main body, and a bottom cover as an enclosure to mixer grinder motor with a knob or buttons for operation. The mixer grinders run on electric motor, said electric motors generate heat from the motor windings. The excessive heat produced in the motor degrades the overall performance and longevity of the motor. In general, the motor is an assembly of a bush, a carbon brush, a stator and a rotor enclosed in an enclosure and provides better alignment of stator and rotor. The enclosure holds the motor's components together and ensures proper alignment and rotation of the rotor.
Universal motor works on either DC or single phase AC supply. When current flows in the field winding, it provides an electromagnetic field. The same current also flows through the armature conductors through carbon brushes. When a current carrying conductor is placed in an electromagnetic field, it experiences a mechanical force, or torque, the rotor starts to rotate and makes the motor to work.
The existing motors have top and bottom frames which are completely open and don’t guide the air to pass through the stator, commutator and the rotor winding. Also, the brush holders and brush boxes are independent parts connected to the top casing, which can misalign the brush angle with commutators and commutation angle. Air can be sucked by the fan from, all the directions and they are not guided or don’t pass through the stator/ commutator/ rotor. Hence cooling of the motor is not sufficient and the motor efficiency and life is thus reduced. Motor may misalign during transit as the top and the bottom frames have minimal contact with stator. The motor needs separate cover/ stand to fix it to the mixer grinder body and guide the air flow.
US5684346A is a cooling device such as cooling jacket which concentrically surrounds a mantle surface of the motor for an electrically driven mixer in hot liquids. The jacket provided with a cooling liquid inlet and an outlet with a cylindrical partition wall dividing the jacket into two concentric gaps. The inner gap is considerably narrower than the outer gap. A cooling liquid passes between the two gaps, where the high velocity in the inner gap results in a very good heat transfer from the mantle surface. The lower velocity in the outer gap results in a lower heat exchange. Therefore the gap acts as an insulating layer between the motor and the hot surrounding liquid. However, the use of a cooling jacket with cooling liquid inlet and outlet adds cost and complexity to the mixer.
US3121178A is a motor driven food mixer comprising a housing consisting of upper and lower separate hollow casing sections. These casing sections are firmly retained in their intended motor-gearing enclosing relationship without being directly connected together and without actual contact between the adjacent overlapping edges of the two sections. A space between the edge of the upper casing section and edge of the lower casing section at the front of the housing provides an air intake opening. A space between the edges at the rear of the housing provides an air outlet opening. However, there is a chance to enter dirt or unwanted particles into the motor housing through the front and rear openings.
US2568773A is a variable speed motor used for food mixers. The motor casing is divided into an upper portion and a lower portion with semi-circular ventilating openings on two portions. Alternately, on one portion there is provided a hole and the other portion is merely be straight thereof. Cooling air is circulated through the openings by means of fan blades. However, there is a chance to enter dirt or unwanted particles into the motor housing through the ventilating openings.
CH515061 discloses a continuous duty mixer/kneader with a two part longitudinally split casing and an adjustable aperture outlet port through which the main shaft passes. The adjustment is provided by a symmetrical pair of pivoted flaps with curved inner edges near the shaft. A pair of external, mating levers on the pivot shafts are driven by a single non reversible linear actuator whose drive motor is controlled by a closed loop servo responding to the temp, viscosity etc. of the product. Continuous adjustment caters for changes in ambient conditions. However, the design is complex and the motor gets heated very soon.

However the motor is heated and performance of the motor is reduced even though life of motor is lengthened.
CN204231061 discloses a split type agricultural motor with convenient repair. The split type agricultural motor comprises a motor body. The bottom of the motor body is provided with a base. The split type agricultural motor is characterized in that the motor body comprises a casing which is internally provided with a cylindrical bracket, the upper part of the casing is provided with a strip-shaped box cover which is arranged on the cylindrical bracket through a connection column, the casing is formed by a left casing and a right casing, the bottom surface of the strip-shaped box cover is provided with two parallel upper guide rails, the upper and lower parts of the left casing and the right casing are correspondingly provided with upper lugs and lower lugs respectively. However the life of the motor is decreased and cooling of motor takes more time.
CN201584838 discloses a split-type rotary motor casing of an excavating machine. The rotary motor casing comprises a casing, wherein an inner chamber is formed inside the casing; a swash plate platform is arranged inside the inner chamber; a swash plate platform through hole is formed on the swash plate platform, a swash plate is mounted on the swash plate platform and adopts a truncated cylindrical body, the lower end surface of the swash plate is a circular plane, the upper end of the swash plate is an elliptic inclined plane, and a swash plate through hole is formed on the swash plate. The rotary motor casing can be manufactured by conventional common processing equipment due to the fact that the inner part of the casing dispenses with an inclined plane, thereby reducing the processing difficulty and cost. The swash plate can be directly replaced without scrapping the whole motor casing once the inclined plane of the swash plate is abraded, thereby effectively prolonging the service life of the motor casing and saving resources. However fast cooling of motor cannot be achieved.
WO2014051213A1 discloses a motor for an electric vehicle has a cooling function, and more particularly, due to its simple configuration, yet can reduce the manufacturing cost and the price is sufficient to apply to the various kinds for electric vehicle motors, what of all relates to a motor for an electric vehicle having a cooling function for improving the cooling efficiency. However the service life of the motor is less.
JP05153743 discloses the cooling air taken in from an air inlet passes axially through an air path thence flows peripherally through an air path. The cooling air flows into an air path entirely from the peripheral direction. In the air path, the cooling air flows inward through the gaps between coils arranged peripherally at several points to a delivery port defined by air guides and then delivered, at the point of air gap, substantially in the direction tangential to the rotating direction of a rotor. Furthermore, strength can be kept as it is because a rotor having conventional structure is employed. However the structure of the motor is complex.
Accordingly, there exists a need for a split casing for a motor to ensure fast cooling and prevent dirt or unwanted particles to enter into the motor enclosure thereby to improve efficiency, performance and life of the motor.
