Description

The present invention relates to rotary machines and electric compressors.

Patent Document 1 discloses an example of a conventional rotating machine. This rotating machine includes a cylindrical motor housing, a drive shaft that is provided within the motor housing and is rotatable around the drive shaft center, and an electric motor that is provided within the motor housing and rotates the drive shaft.

The electric motor has a stator and a rotor that is disposed within the stator and has a drive shaft fixed thereto.

The stator has a stator core and a coil. The stator core is fixed to the inner surface of the motor housing and has a cylindrical shape extending in the direction of the drive shaft. The coil is wound around the stator core and has coil ends that protrude from the stator core in the direction of the drive shaft.

The motor housing has a core outer periphery facing portion to which the stator core is fixed, and an end outer periphery facing portion that faces the outer periphery of the coil end.

This rotary machine further includes a cylindrical outer housing. The outer housing is located on the outer periphery of the motor housing, and forms a cooling flow path between the outer housing and the motor housing, through which a coolant is supplied to cool the stator. The cooling flow path extends spirally along the drive shaft centerline, spanning the area facing the core outer periphery and the area facing the end outer periphery.

In this rotating machine, to efficiently cool the coil ends, the equivalent diameter of the cooling flow passages at the end outer periphery facing portion is set smaller than the equivalent diameter of the cooling flow passages at the core outer periphery facing portion. This improves the heat transfer coefficient of the cooling flow passages at the end outer periphery facing portion, allowing the coil ends to be cooled efficiently.

In another conventional rotating machine disclosed in Patent Document 2, the gap between the coil and the stator core, along with the coil, is molded with heat-conductive resin. Heat generated in the coil is transferred to the stator core via the resin mold, and the heat from the stator core is dissipated into the air from heat dissipation fins attached to the outer periphery of the motor housing that secures the stator core. This enhances the cooling effect of the coil.

However, in the rotating machine disclosed in Patent Document 1, the coil ends do not abut against the motor housing, so even if the heat transfer coefficient of the cooling flow passages in the end outer periphery facing portions is improved, there is a limit to how effectively the coil ends can be cooled.

In addition, in the rotating machine disclosed in Patent Document 2, heat transferred from the coil to the resin mold is transferred to the motor housing via the stator core, resulting in poor heat transfer efficiency due to the need to pass through the stator core. To improve heat transfer efficiency and enhance the cooling effect of the coil ends, it would be advantageous to transfer the heat transferred from the coil to the resin mold directly to the motor housing. However, this requires the resin mold to abut against the motor housing, which requires the use of a large amount of expensive resin material and leads to higher manufacturing costs.

The present invention was made in consideration of the above-mentioned conventional situation, and aims to provide a rotary machine that reduces the amount of resin used in the resin mold, thereby reducing costs, while improving the cooling effect of the coil, and an electric compressor equipped with such a rotary machine.

The rotary machine of the present invention comprises: a cylindrical motor housing;
a drive shaft provided in the motor housing and rotatable about a drive axis;
an electric motor provided in the motor housing and configured to rotate the drive shaft,
the motor housing has a motor chamber that accommodates the drive shaft and the electric motor,
the electric motor includes a stator and a rotor disposed within the stator and to which the drive shaft is fixed;
The stator includes a cylindrical stator core fixed to an inner peripheral surface of the motor housing and a coil wound around the stator core,
The coil has a first coil end that protrudes from one side of the stator core and a second coil end that protrudes from the other side of the stator core,
the motor housing has a core outer periphery facing portion to which the stator core is fixed, a first end outer periphery facing portion facing the outer periphery of the first coil end, and a second end outer periphery facing portion facing the outer periphery of the second coil end,
the rotating machine has a heat-conductive resin mold that covers the first coil end and the second coil end and abuts against the first end outer circumferential facing portion and the second end outer circumferential facing portion,
a cooling flow path through which a coolant for cooling the stator is supplied is formed between the first end outer periphery facing portion, the core outer periphery facing portion, the second end outer periphery facing portion, and an outer housing provided outside the motor housing,
the second end outer periphery facing portion has an inner diameter smaller than that of the core outer periphery facing portion,
the motor chamber has a first chamber defined by the first coil end, a first stator core end face of the stator core facing one side in the drive shaft direction, a first end axially opposing portion opposing the first coil end and the first stator core end face in the drive shaft direction, and the first end outer peripheral opposing portion; and a second chamber defined by the second coil end, a second stator core end face of the stator core facing the other side in the drive shaft direction, a second end axially opposing portion opposing the second coil end and the second stator core end face in the drive shaft direction, and the second end outer peripheral opposing portion,
The resin mold is characterized by having a first resin mold that is filled into the first chamber and covers the entire outer surface of the first coil end and the end face of the first stator core, and a second resin mold that is filled into the second chamber and covers the entire outer surface of the second coil end and the end face of the second stator core .

In the rotating machine of the present invention, a heat-conductive resin mold covering the first coil end abuts against the first end outer periphery facing portion of the motor housing. Similarly, a heat-conductive resin mold covering the second coil end abuts against the second end outer periphery facing portion of the motor housing. Therefore, heat transferred from the first coil end to the resin mold is transferred directly to the motor housing without passing through the stator core. Similarly, heat transferred from the second coil end to the resin mold is transferred directly to the motor housing without passing through the stator core. Furthermore, heat from the stator core is transferred directly from the stator core to the motor housing. The heat transferred to the motor housing is absorbed by the coolant flowing through the cooling passages in the first end outer periphery facing portion, the core outer periphery facing portion, and the second end outer periphery facing portion. In this way, the stator can be effectively cooled by the coolant flowing through the cooling passages.

In this rotating machine, the inner diameter of the second end outer periphery facing portion of the motor housing is smaller than the inner diameter of the core outer periphery facing portion. The outer periphery of the resin mold covering the second coil end abuts against the inner periphery of the motor housing at this second end outer periphery facing portion.

In this case, the amount of resin used in the resin mold between the second coil end and the second end outer periphery facing portion can be reduced by the amount of the smaller inner diameter of the second end outer periphery facing portion.

In addition, the heat transfer distance from the second coil end to the motor housing in the resin mold is shortened by the amount of the inner diameter of the second end outer periphery facing portion. Shortening the heat transfer distance in the resin mold between the second coil end and the second end outer periphery facing portion makes it easier for heat to be transferred from the second coil end to the second end outer periphery facing portion of the motor housing via the resin mold, thereby improving the cooling effect of the second coil end. An improved cooling effect for the second coil end also improves the cooling effect for the entire coil.

Therefore, the rotating machine of the present invention can reduce the amount of resin used in the resin mold, thereby reducing costs, while improving the cooling effect of the coil.

It is preferable that the inner peripheral end of the cooling flow passage in the second end outer peripheral facing portion be located closer to the inner peripheral side of the stator core than the outer peripheral end of the stator core.

In this case, the distance between the cooling flow path and the resin mold between the second coil end and the second end outer periphery facing portion is shortened, thereby further improving the cooling effect of the second coil end.

It is preferable that the cooling flow passage extends spirally along the drive shaft centerline across the core outer periphery facing portion and the second end outer periphery facing portion. It is also preferable that the width of the cooling flow passage in the drive shaft centerline at the second end outer periphery facing portion is smaller than the width of the cooling flow passage in the drive shaft centerline at the core outer periphery facing portion.

When the inner circumferential end of the cooling flow passage at the second end outer circumferential facing portion is located closer to the stator core's inner circumferential side than the outer circumferential end of the stator core, the cooling flow passage at the second end outer circumferential facing portion may be longer in the transverse direction, which is perpendicular to the drive shaft direction, than the cooling flow passage at the core outer circumferential facing portion. As the length of the cooling flow passage in the transverse direction increases, the cross-sectional area of the cooling flow passage increases accordingly. As the cross-sectional area of the cooling flow passage increases, the flow rate of the coolant flowing through the cooling flow passage decreases, reducing the cooling effect of the coolant. Therefore, when the inner circumferential end of the cooling flow passage at the second end outer circumferential facing portion is located closer to the stator core's outer circumferential side than the outer circumferential end of the stator core, the cooling effect of the coolant flowing through the cooling flow passage at the second end outer circumferential facing portion may be less than the cooling effect of the coolant flowing through the cooling flow passage at the core outer circumferential facing portion.

In this regard, if the width of the cooling flow passage in the drive axis direction is reduced, the flow passage cross-sectional area of the cooling flow passage is reduced accordingly. Therefore, even if the inner peripheral end of the cooling flow passage at the second end outer periphery facing portion is located more inward than the outer periphery end of the stator core, as long as the width of the cooling flow passage in the drive axis direction at the second end outer periphery facing portion is smaller than the width of the cooling flow passage in the drive axis direction at the core outer periphery facing portion, it is possible to prevent a decrease in cooling effect due to an increase in the flow passage cross-sectional area.

Preferably, the outer housing also defines a cooling flow passage between itself and the second end axially opposed portion .

In this case, the end face of the resin mold covering the second coil end in the drive shaft direction abuts against the end face of the motor housing on the second coil end side at the axially opposing portion of the second end. Therefore, heat transferred from the second coil end to the resin mold also travels in the drive shaft direction and is transferred directly to the motor housing. The heat transferred to the motor housing is absorbed by the coolant flowing through the cooling flow path at the axially opposing portion of the second end. This allows the second coil end to be cooled even more effectively.

The stator includes a cylindrical stator core fixed to an inner peripheral surface of the motor housing and a coil wound around the stator core,
The coil has a first coil end that protrudes from one side of the stator core and a second coil end that protrudes from the other side of the stator core,

a cooling flow path through which a coolant for cooling the stator is supplied is formed between the first end outer periphery facing portion, the core outer periphery facing portion, and the second end outer periphery facing portion and an outer housing provided outside the motor housing,
an inner diameter of the second end outer periphery facing portion is smaller than an inner diameter of the core outer periphery facing portion and an inner diameter of the first end outer periphery facing portion;

a second compression section that is provided within the housing and connected to the other end, and that further compresses the fluid compressed in the first compression section as the drive shaft rotates.

In the first and second electric compressors of the present invention, the fluid compressed in the first compression section is further compressed in the second compressor. Therefore, the second compression section within the housing has a higher temperature than the first compression section. As a result, the second coil end located closer to the second compression section in the axial direction of the drive shaft is more likely to become hotter than the first coil end located closer to the first compression section. In this regard, in these electric compressors, the second coil end can be effectively cooled, thereby effectively cooling the coil.

The rotating machine of the present invention can reduce the amount of resin used in the resin mold, thereby reducing costs, while improving the cooling effect of the coil.

The electric compressor of the present invention is equipped with the rotary machine of the present invention, which reduces the amount of resin used in the resin mold, thereby reducing costs, while improving the cooling effect of the coil.

FIG. 2 is an enlarged partial cross-sectional view of a turbo-fluid machine including a rotary machine according to the embodiment, showing a main part thereof.

Embodiments of the present invention will now be described with reference to the drawings. The turbo fluid machine of the embodiment is a specific example of an electric compressor of the present invention. This turbo fluid machine includes a rotary machine 100, which is a specific example of a rotary machine of the present invention. This turbo fluid machine is mounted on a fuel cell vehicle and is connected to a fuel cell stack. The fuel cell vehicle and fuel cell stack are not shown in the drawings.

As shown in Figures 1 and 2, the turbo fluid machine of this embodiment includes a housing 1, an electric motor 3, a drive shaft 5, a first impeller 7, and a second impeller 9.

In this embodiment, the front-to-rear direction of the turbo fluid machine is defined by the solid arrows shown in Figures 1 and 2. This front-to-rear direction is an example of the "drive shaft direction" in the present invention. Note that the turbo fluid machine can change its own attitude as appropriate depending on the vehicle in which it is installed.

The housing 1 is made of an aluminum alloy. As shown in Figure 1, the housing 1 consists of a motor housing 10, a first plate 11, a second plate 12, a third plate 13, a first compressor housing 14, a second compressor housing 15, and an outer housing 16.

The motor housing 10 has an end wall 10a, a first peripheral wall 10b, and a second peripheral wall 10c. The motor housing 10 is made of an aluminum alloy.

The end wall 10a is located at the rear end of the motor housing 10 and extends radially of the motor housing 10. This radial direction coincides with the axis-perpendicular direction, which is perpendicular to the direction of the drive axis O described below.

The end wall 10a has a first end surface 101 facing forward and a second end surface 102 facing rearward, located opposite the first end surface 101. The second end surface 102 forms the rear end surface of the motor housing 10.

The first peripheral wall 10b is integral with the end wall 10a and extends forward from the end wall 10a in a cylindrical shape. The second peripheral wall 10c is integral with the first peripheral wall 10b and extends forward from the first peripheral wall 10b in a cylindrical shape. The first peripheral wall 10b has a smaller diameter than the second peripheral wall 10c. The second peripheral wall 10c is open at the front. The end wall 10a, first peripheral wall 10b, and second peripheral wall 10c form the motor housing 10 in a cylindrical shape with a bottom. A flange portion 10d is formed at the front end of the second peripheral wall 10c. The flange portion 10d protrudes radially from the motor housing 10 beyond the outer circumferential surface of the second peripheral wall 10c.

Here, the inner diameter of the first peripheral wall 10b is smaller than the inner diameter of the second peripheral wall 10c, i.e., the outer diameter of the stator core 33 described below.

The outer housing 16 has an outer housing end wall 16a and an outer housing peripheral wall 16b. The outer housing 16 is made of steel.

The outer housing end wall 16a is located rearward of the motor housing 10 and extends radially from the motor housing 10. The outer housing end wall 16a has a first outer housing end surface 161 that faces forward and a second outer housing end surface 162 that faces rearward and is located opposite the first outer housing end surface 161. The second outer housing end surface 162 forms the rear end surface of the outer housing 16.

The outer housing peripheral wall 16b is integral with the outer housing end wall 16a and extends forward from the outer housing end wall 16a in a cylindrical shape with a constant inner diameter. The outer housing peripheral wall 16b is open at the front. The outer housing end wall 16a and the outer housing peripheral wall 16b form the outer housing 16 in a cylindrical shape with a bottom.

The first plate 11 is located in front of the motor housing 10. The first plate 11 has a first front surface 11a located in the front and a first rear surface 11b located in the rear. The first plate 11 is connected to the flange portion 10d and the outer housing 16 with the first rear surface 11b abutting against the flange portion 10d and the outer housing 16. As a result, the first plate 11 closes the openings of the second peripheral wall 10c and the outer housing 16. An O-ring 20 seals the gap between the front end surface of the second peripheral wall 10c and the first rear surface 11b of the first plate 11. In this way, the end wall 10a, first peripheral wall 10b, second peripheral wall 10c, and first rear surface 11b define a motor chamber 30 inside the motor housing 10.

The first plate 11 is formed with a first boss portion 11c, a first recess portion 11d, and a first shaft hole 11e. The first boss portion 11c protrudes rearward in a cylindrical shape from the first rear surface 11b and extends into the motor chamber 30. A first radial bearing 21a is provided inside the first boss portion 11c.

The first recess 11d is recessed rearward from the first front surface 11a. A first thrust bearing 23a and a second thrust bearing 23b are provided inside the first recess 11d. The first shaft hole 11e is located in the center of the first plate 11 and penetrates the first plate 11 in the front-to-rear direction. As a result, the first shaft hole 11e is connected to the first recess 11d at its front end and to the first boss portion 11c at its rear end. The first boss portion 11c, first recess 11d, and first shaft hole 11e are coaxial with one another.

The outer housing end wall 16a of the outer housing 16 is formed with a first outer housing boss 16c, a second outer housing boss 16d, and a second shaft hole 16e. The first outer housing boss 16c protrudes forward cylindrically from the inner circumferential edge of the first outer housing end face 161 and extends into the motor chamber 30. The second outer housing boss 16d protrudes further forward cylindrically from the first outer housing boss 16c. The second outer housing boss 16d has a smaller diameter than the first outer housing boss 16c. A second radial bearing 21b is provided inside the second outer housing boss 16d. The second shaft hole 16e is located in the center of the outer housing end wall 16a and penetrates the outer housing end wall 16a in the front-to-rear direction. As a result, the front end of the second shaft hole 16e is connected to the second outer housing boss 16d. The first outer housing boss portion 16c, the second outer housing boss portion 16d, and the second axial hole 16e are coaxial with the first boss portion 11c, the first recess portion 11d, and the first axial hole 11e.

The second plate 12 is located in front of the first plate 11. The second plate 12 has a second front surface 12a located in the front and a second rear surface 12b located in the rear. The second plate 12 is connected to the first plate 11 with the second rear surface 12b abutting against the first front surface 11a.

The second plate 12 is formed with a second recess 12c and a third shaft hole 12d. The second recess 12c is recessed rearward from the second front surface 12a. The second recess 12c has a smaller diameter than the first recess 11d. A first seal member 25a is provided inside the second recess 12c. The third shaft hole 12d is located in the center of the second plate 12 and penetrates the second plate 12 in the front-to-rear direction. As a result, the third shaft hole 12d is connected to the second recess 12c at its front end and to the first recess 11d at its rear end. The second recess 12c and the third shaft hole 12d are coaxial with the first boss portion 11c, the first recess 11d, and the first shaft hole 11e.

The third plate 13 is located rearward of the outer housing 16. The third plate 13 has a third front surface 13a located forward and a third rear surface 13b located rearward. The third plate 13 is connected to the outer housing 16 with the third front surface 13a abutting against the second outer housing end surface 162 of the outer housing end wall 16a.

The third plate 13 is formed with a third recess 13c and a fourth shaft hole 13d. The third recess 13c is recessed forward from the third rear surface 13b. The third recess 13c is formed with the same diameter as the second recess 12c. A second seal member 25b is provided inside the third recess 13c. The fourth shaft hole 13d is located in the center of the third plate 13 and penetrates the third plate 13 in the front-to-rear direction. As a result, the fourth shaft hole 13d is connected to the second shaft hole 16e at its front end and to the third recess 13c at its rear end. The third recess 13c and the fourth shaft hole 13d are coaxial with the second outer housing boss portion 16d and the second shaft hole 16e. In other words, the third recess 13c and the fourth axial hole 13d are coaxial with the first boss portion 11c, the first recess 11d, the first axial hole 11e, the second recess 12c, and the third axial hole 12d.

The first compressor housing 14 is located in front of the second plate 12. The first compressor housing 14 is cylindrical and is connected to the second plate 12 while abutting against the second front surface 12a of the second plate 12. As a result, the first compressor housing 14 forms the front end of the housing 1. The first compressor housing 14 also has a first intake port 14a and a first discharge port 14b formed therein.

The first intake port 14a is coaxial with the third axial hole 12d and extends in the front-to-rear direction inside the first compressor housing 14. The front end of the first intake port 14a opens to the front end face 140 of the first compressor housing 14. An intake pipe 17 is connected to the first intake port 14a. Air containing oxygen is drawn into the first intake port 14a from outside the housing 1 through the intake pipe 17. Air is an example of a "fluid" in the present invention.

The first discharge port 14b extends radially inside the first compressor housing 14 and opens to the outer peripheral surface 141 of the first compressor housing 14. The first discharge port 14b is connected to the communication pipe 8, which will be described later.

Furthermore, a first impeller chamber 27a, a first discharge chamber 27b, and a first diffuser passage 27c are formed between the first compressor housing 14 and the second front surface 12a. The first impeller chamber 27a is connected to the first suction port 14a. The first discharge chamber 27b extends around the axis of the first suction port 14a around the periphery of the first impeller chamber 27a. The first discharge chamber 27b is connected to the first discharge port 14b. The first diffuser passage 27c connects the first impeller chamber 27a and the first discharge chamber 27b. As a result, the first impeller chamber 27a is connected to the first discharge port 14b via the first diffuser passage 27c and the first discharge chamber 27b. The first impeller chamber 27a, the first discharge chamber 27b, the first diffuser passage 27c, and the first impeller 7 are an example of the "first compression section" in the present invention.

The second compressor housing 15 is located behind the third plate 13. Like the first compressor housing 14, the second compressor housing 15 is also cylindrical. The second compressor housing 15 is connected to the third plate 13 while abutting against the third rear surface 13b of the third plate 13. As a result, the second compressor housing 15 forms the rear end of the housing 1. The second compressor housing 15 also has a second intake port 15a and a second discharge port 15b formed therein.

The second intake port 15a is coaxial with the first intake port 14a and extends in the front-to-rear direction inside the second compressor housing 15. The rear end of the second intake port 15a opens to the rear end face 150 of the second compressor housing 15. The second intake port 15a is connected to the communication pipe 8, which will be described later.

The second discharge port 15b extends radially inside the second compressor housing 15 and opens to the outer peripheral surface 151 of the second compressor housing 15. A discharge pipe 18 is connected to the second discharge port 15b. The turbo fluid machine is connected to the fuel cell stack through this discharge pipe 18.

Furthermore, a second impeller chamber 29a, a second discharge chamber 29b, and a second diffuser passage 29c are formed between the second compressor housing 15 and the third rear surface 13b. The second impeller chamber 29a is connected to the second suction port 15a. The second discharge chamber 29b extends around the axis of the second suction port 15a around the periphery of the second impeller chamber 29a. The second discharge chamber 29b is connected to the second discharge port 15b. The second diffuser passage 29c connects the second impeller chamber 29a and the second discharge chamber 29b. As a result, the second impeller chamber 29a is connected to the second discharge port 15b via the second diffuser passage 29c and the second discharge chamber 29b. The second impeller chamber 29a, the second discharge chamber 29b, the second diffuser passage 29c, and the second impeller 9 are an example of the "second compression section" in the present invention.

In this way, in the housing 1, the first impeller chamber 27a and the second impeller chamber 29a are separated in the front-to-rear direction, and the motor chamber 30 is located between the first impeller chamber 27a and the second impeller chamber 29a.

The electric motor 3 is housed in the motor chamber 30 and rotates the drive shaft 5. The electric motor 3 has a stator 31 and a rotor 32. The stator 31 is fixed to the motor housing 10. The stator 31 is connected to a power supply device (not shown) provided outside the housing 1.

The stator 31 has a stator core 33 and a coil 34. The stator core 33 is formed cylindrically extending in the front-to-rear direction and is fixed to the inner circumferential surface of the motor housing 10. More specifically, the outer circumferential surface 33a of the stator core 33 is fixed to the inner circumferential surface 10e of the second circumferential wall 10c.

The coil 34 is wound around the stator core 33. The coil 34 has a first coil end 34a that protrudes forward from the stator core 33 and a second coil end 34b that protrudes rearward from the stator core 33.

This stator 31 is molded with a heat-conductive resin, including the coils 34 and the gap between the coils 34 and the stator core 33, so that the inner circumferential surface 33b of the stator core 33, both front and rear end surfaces of the stator core 33, and the first and second coil ends 34a and 34b are entirely covered with the heat-conductive resin. Thus, the entire outer surface of the first coil end 34a and the front end surface of the stator core 33 are covered with a first resin mold 61. Similarly, the entire outer surface of the second coil end 34b and the rear end surface of the stator core 33 are covered with a second resin mold 62. Furthermore, the inner circumferential surface 33b of the stator core 33 is covered with a third resin mold 63.

The first resin mold 61, second resin mold 62, and third resin mold 63 are integrally formed by resin injection molding. Specifically, the stator 31 is inserted through the opening in the second peripheral wall 10c, and the stator core 33 is press-fitted and fixed to the inner peripheral surface 10e of the motor housing 10. This integrated assembly is then placed in a predetermined mold and resin is injection-molded to form the first resin mold 61, second resin mold, and third resin mold 63. Resins with high thermal conductivity, such as epoxy resin or polyester resin, can be used for the first resin mold 61, second resin mold, and third resin mold 63. These resins may also be mixed with powders, such as alumina or silica, that have higher thermal conductivity than resin. The first resin mold 61, second resin mold 62, and third resin mold 63 are examples of the "resin mold" defined in the present invention.

The rotor 32 is cylindrical and has a smaller diameter than the stator 31, extending in the front-to-rear direction. The rotor 32 is disposed within the stator 31. The drive shaft 5 is fixed to the rotor 32.

The drive shaft 5 is cylindrical and extends axially, i.e., in the front-to-rear direction. It comprises, from front to rear, the first shaft portion 5a, the second shaft portion 5b, the third shaft portion 5c, the fourth shaft portion 5d, and the fifth shaft portion 5e. The first shaft portion 5a and the fifth shaft portion 5e have the same diameter and are the smallest diameters on the drive shaft 5. The second shaft portion 5b and the fourth shaft portion 5d have the same diameter and are larger than the first and fifth shaft portions 5a and 5e. The second shaft portion 5b is connected to the first shaft portion 5a at its front end. The fourth shaft portion 5d is connected to the fifth shaft portion 5e at its rear end. The third shaft portion 5c has the largest diameter on the drive shaft 5. The third shaft portion 5c is connected to the second shaft portion 5b at its front end and to the fourth shaft portion 5d at its rear end.

The drive shaft 5 is inserted into the housing 1 and is rotatable around the drive axis O. The first shaft portion 5a of the drive shaft 5 extends into the first impeller chamber 27a. The drive axis O extends parallel to the front-to-rear direction of the turbo fluid machine.

The second shaft portion 5b is inserted through the third shaft hole 12d and the first shaft hole 11e, and extends into the second recess 12c and the first recess 11d. The second shaft portion 5b is also inserted through the first seal member 25a within the second recess 12c. This allows the first seal member 25a to seal between the first impeller chamber 27a and the first recess 11d and the motor chamber 30. Furthermore, the second shaft portion 5b is inserted through the first and second thrust bearings 23a and 23b within the first recess 11d, and is press-fit into the support plate 51. The support plate 51 is located between the first thrust bearing 23a and the second thrust bearing 23b. As a result, the support plate 51 sandwiches the first thrust bearing 23a in the front-to-rear direction between itself and the second rear surface 12b, and sandwiches the second thrust bearing 23b in the front-to-rear direction between itself and the wall surface of the first recess 11d.

The third shaft portion 5c extends into the motor chamber 30 and is inserted into and fixed to the rotor 32. The third shaft portion 5c is supported by the first radial bearing 21a within the first boss portion 11c, and is supported by the second radial bearing 21b within the second outer housing boss portion 16d.

The fourth shaft portion 5d is inserted through the second shaft hole 16e and the fourth shaft hole 13d, and extends into the third recess 13c. The fourth shaft portion 5d is also inserted through the second seal member 25b within the third recess 13c. This allows the second seal member 25b to seal the gap between the second impeller chamber 29a and the motor chamber 30. The fifth shaft portion 5e extends into the second impeller chamber 29a.

The rotating machine 100 is composed of the motor housing 10, first plate 11, drive shaft 5, electric motor 3, first resin mold 61, second resin mold 6, etc.

The first impeller 7 is housed in the first impeller chamber 27a. The first impeller 7 is formed in a generally conical shape that gradually increases in diameter from the front to the rear. Meanwhile, the second impeller 9 is housed in the second impeller chamber 29a. The second impeller 9 is symmetrical in shape to the first impeller 7 in the front-to-rear direction. In other words, the second impeller 9 is formed in a generally conical shape that gradually decreases in diameter from the front to the rear. The first impeller 7 is made of an aluminum alloy, and the second impeller 9 is made of steel.

The first impeller 7 is fixed to the first shaft portion 5a of the drive shaft 5. The second impeller 9 is fixed to the fifth shaft portion 5e of the drive shaft 5. In this way, the drive shaft 5 connects the first and second impellers 7 and 9 to the electric motor 3. The first discharge chamber 14b and the second suction port 15a are connected by a connecting pipe 8. The first shaft portion 5a is an example of the "first end" in the present invention. The fifth shaft portion 5e is an example of the "second end" in the present invention.

The motor housing 10 has a core outer periphery facing portion 41, to which the stator core 33 is fixed and facing the outer periphery of the stator core 33, a first end outer periphery facing portion 42 facing the outer periphery of the first coil end 34a, a second end outer periphery facing portion 43 facing the outer periphery of the second coil end 34b, and a second end axially facing portion 44 facing the drive axis O of the second coil end 34b. The area of the second circumferential wall 10c that corresponds to the outer periphery of the stator core 33 corresponds to the core outer periphery facing portion 41. The area of the second circumferential wall 10c other than the core outer periphery facing portion 41 corresponds to the first end outer periphery facing portion 42. The first circumferential wall 10b corresponds to the second end outer periphery facing portion 43. The end wall 10a corresponds to the second end axially facing portion 44. Therefore, the core outer periphery facing portion 41 and the first end outer periphery facing portion 42 have the same inner diameter. The second end outer periphery facing portion 43 has smaller inner and outer diameters than the core outer periphery facing portion 41.

A spiral groove 81 is provided on the outer peripheral surface of the first peripheral wall 10b and in the area of the second peripheral wall 10c other than the flange portion 10d. The spiral groove 81 extends spirally along the drive axis O, spanning the area of the first end outer peripheral facing portion 42, the area of the core outer peripheral facing portion 41, and the area of the second end outer peripheral facing portion 43.

A spiral groove 82 is provided on the second end face 102 of the end wall 10a. The spiral groove 82 extends spirally around the drive axis O from the outer peripheral end to the inner peripheral end of the end wall 10a. The rear end of the spiral groove 81 and the outer peripheral end of the spiral groove 82 are connected.

The outside of the motor housing 10 is surrounded by the outer housing 16. The outer peripheral surface of the flange portion 10d abuts against the inner peripheral surface of the outer housing peripheral wall 16b, and the inner peripheral end face of the end wall 10a abuts against the outer peripheral surface of the first outer housing boss portion 16c. An O-ring 21 seals the gap between the outer peripheral surface of the flange portion 10d and the inner peripheral surface of the outer housing peripheral wall 16b. An O-ring 22 seals the gap between the inner peripheral end face of the end wall 10a and the outer peripheral surface of the first outer housing boss portion 16c.

A cooling flow passage 80 is thus formed between the outer housing 16 and the motor housing 10 on the outside. The cooling flow passage 80 extends spirally along the drive axis O, spanning the first end outer periphery facing portion 42, the core outer periphery facing portion 41, and the second end outer periphery facing portion 43. The cooling flow passage 80 also extends spirally around the drive axis O from the outer periphery end of the end wall 10a toward the inner periphery end. The cooling flow passage 80 is composed of a first end flow passage portion 80a provided in the first end outer periphery facing portion 42, a core flow passage portion 80b provided in the core outer periphery facing portion 41, a second end flow passage portion 80c provided in the second end outer periphery facing portion 43, and a spiral flow passage portion 80d provided in the second end axially facing portion 44. The first end flow path section 80a and the core flow path section 80b are connected, the core flow path section 80b and the second end flow path section 80c are connected, and the second end flow path section 80c and the spiral flow path section 80d are connected.

Cooling water is supplied to the cooling flow passage 80 to cool the stator 31. The cooling water is an example of the "coolant" in this invention. The outer housing 16 is provided with a water supply/drain port and a water supply/drain flow passage (not shown) for supplying and discharging cooling water to the cooling flow passage 80. The water supply flow passage is connected to the forward end of the first end flow passage portion 80a of the cooling flow passage 80. The water drain flow passage is connected to the inner peripheral end of the spiral flow passage portion 80d of the cooling flow passage 80. Cooling water is supplied to the water supply port from a water supply device (not shown) provided outside the housing 1.

As described above, the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 of the motor housing 10 has smaller inner and outer diameters than the core outer periphery facing portion 41. In other words, the inner diameter of the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 is smaller than the outer diameter of the stator core 33.

The outer peripheral surface 61a of the first resin mold 61 abuts against the inner peripheral surface 10e of the motor housing 10 at the first end outer peripheral facing portion 42. The front end surface 61b of the first resin mold 61 abuts against the first rear surface 11b of the first plate 11. Similarly, the outer peripheral surface 62a of the second resin mold 62 abuts against the inner peripheral surface 10f of the motor housing 10 at the second end outer peripheral facing portion 43. The rear end surface 62b of the second resin mold 62 abuts against the first end surface 101 of the end wall 10a.

Here, consider an axial cross section of the cooling flow passage 80 taken along a plane including the drive axis O. As shown in FIG. 2, the cooling flow passage 80 has a substantially rectangular shape in this axial cross section. Furthermore, in this axial cross section, the inner peripheral end of the second end flow passage portion 80c in the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 is located closer to the inner peripheral side of the motor housing 10 than the inner peripheral end of the core flow passage portion 80b in the core outer periphery facing portion 41. Furthermore, in this axial cross section, the inner peripheral end of the second end flow passage portion 80c in the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 is located closer to the inner peripheral side of the stator core 33 than the outer peripheral surface 33a, which is the outer peripheral end of the stator core 33.

In addition, in the cross section along the flow path axis, the width d1 of the second end flow path section 80c in the second end outer periphery opposing portion 43 in the direction of the drive axis O is smaller than the width d2 of the core flow path section 80b in the direction of the drive axis O in the core outer periphery opposing portion 41. In addition, in the cross section along the flow path axis, the length of the second end flow path section 80c in the direction perpendicular to the axis is longer than the length of the core flow path section 80b in the direction perpendicular to the axis.

In this turbo fluid machine configured as described above, when power is supplied from the power supply device to the electric motor 3 shown in FIG. 1, the electric motor 3 operates and the drive shaft 5 rotates around the drive axis O. As a result, the first impeller 7 rotates around the drive axis O within the first impeller chamber 27a, and the second impeller 9 rotates around the drive axis O within the second impeller chamber 29a.

As a result, in this turbo fluid machine, air drawn in through the first suction port 14a is compressed in two stages by the first impeller 7 and the second impeller 9. That is, the air drawn in through the first suction port 14a is compressed by the first impeller 7 in the first impeller chamber 27a to become first compressed air, which is then discharged into the first discharge chamber 27b. This first compressed air is at a higher temperature and pressure than the air drawn into the first impeller chamber 27a. The first compressed air discharged from the first discharge chamber 27 to the connecting pipe 8 is then supplied from the second suction port 15a into the second impeller chamber 29a. The first compressed air supplied into the second impeller chamber 29a is further compressed by the second impeller 9 to become second compressed air, which is then discharged into the second discharge chamber 29b. This second compressed air is at a higher temperature and pressure than the first compressed air. This second compressed air is then discharged from the second discharge port 15b into the discharge pipe 18 and supplied to the cathode of the fuel cell stack via the discharge pipe 18.

When this turbo fluid machine is in operation, cooling water is supplied from the water supply device to the water supply inlet. The cooling water supplied to the water supply inlet flows into the cooling flow path 80 via the water supply flow path, flows through the cooling flow path 80, and is then discharged from the drain outlet to the outside of the housing 1 via the drain flow path.

In the rotating machine 100 of this embodiment, the outer peripheral surface 61a of the heat-conductive first resin mold 61 covering the first coil end 34a abuts against the inner peripheral surface 10e of the motor housing 10 at the first end outer peripheral facing portion 42. Similarly, the outer peripheral surface 62a of the heat-conductive second resin mold 62 covering the second coil end 34b abuts against the inner peripheral surface 10f of the motor housing 10 at the second end outer peripheral facing portion 43. Therefore, heat transferred from the first coil end 34a to the first resin mold 61 is transferred directly to the first end outer peripheral facing portion 42 of the motor housing 10 without passing through the stator core 33. Similarly, heat transferred from the second coil end 34b to the second resin mold 62 is transferred directly to the second end outer peripheral facing portion 43 of the motor housing 10 without passing through the stator core 33. Furthermore, heat transferred from the second coil end 34b to the second resin mold 62 is transferred directly to the second end axially facing portion 44 of the motor housing 10. Heat from the stator core 33 is transferred directly from the stator core 33 to the core outer periphery facing portion 41 of the motor housing 10. The heat transferred to the motor housing 10 is absorbed by the cooling water flowing through the cooling passages 80 in the first end outer periphery facing portion 42, the core outer periphery facing portion 41, the second end outer periphery facing portion 43, and the second end axially facing portion 44. In other words, the heat transferred to the motor housing 10 is absorbed by the cooling water flowing through the first end passage portion 80a, the core passage portion 80b, the second end passage portion 80c, and the spiral passage portion 80d. In this way, the stator 31 can be effectively cooled by the cooling water flowing through the cooling passages 80.

In particular, in this rotating machine 100, heat is transferred from the rear end surface 62b of the second resin mold 62 to the end wall 10a of the motor housing 10 in the direction of the drive axis O, and the heat transferred to the end wall 10a is removed by the cooling water flowing through the spiral flow path section 80d. This allows the second coil end 34b to be cooled even more effectively.

In this rotating machine 100, the inner diameter of the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 of the motor housing 10 is smaller than the inner diameter of the core outer periphery facing portion 41. The outer periphery surface 62a of the second resin mold 62, which covers the outer periphery of the second coil end 34b, abuts against the inner periphery surface 10f of the motor housing 10 at this second end outer periphery facing portion 43.

In this case, the amount of resin used in the second resin mold 62 can be reduced by the amount that the inner diameter of the second end outer periphery opposing portion 43 is reduced.

In addition, the heat transfer distance from the second coil end 34b in the second resin mold 62 to the motor housing 10 is shortened by the amount of the reduced inner diameter of the second end outer periphery facing portion 43. A shorter heat transfer distance in the second resin mold 62 makes it easier for heat to be transferred from the second coil end 34b via the second resin mold 62 to the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 of the motor housing 10, thereby improving the cooling effect of the second coil end 34b. An improved cooling effect of the second coil end 34b also improves the cooling effect of the entire coil 34.

Therefore, in the rotary machine 100 of this embodiment and the turbo fluid machine of this embodiment equipped with this rotary machine 100, the amount of resin used in the resin mold can be reduced, thereby reducing costs, while improving the cooling effect of the coil 34.

In addition, in this turbo fluid machine, the air compressed by the first impeller 7 is further compressed by the second impeller 9. As a result, the temperature inside the housing 1 becomes higher around the second impeller 9 than around the first impeller 7. As a result, in the direction of the drive axis O, the second coil end 34b located on the second impeller 9 side is more likely to become hotter than the first coil end 34a located on the first impeller 7 side.

In this regard, with this turbo fluid machine, the second coil end 34b can be cooled more effectively, thereby allowing the entire coil 34 to be cooled more effectively.

In particular, in this rotary machine 100, in a cross section along the flow path axis, the inner peripheral end of the cooling flow path 80 in the second end outer peripheral opposing portion 43, i.e., the inner peripheral end of the second end flow path portion 80c, is located closer to the inner peripheral side of the stator core 33 than the outer peripheral surface 33a, which is the outer peripheral end of the stator core 33.

This configuration shortens the distance between the second end flow path section 80c and the second resin mold 62, thereby further enhancing the cooling effect of the second coil end 34b.

In addition, in this rotary machine 100, in the axial cross section, the inner peripheral end of the second end flow passage section 80c at the second end outer peripheral opposing portion 43 is located closer to the inner peripheral side of the stator core 33 than the outer peripheral surface 33a of the stator core 33, and the length of the second end flow passage section 80c in the direction perpendicular to the axis is longer than the length of the core flow passage section 80b in the direction perpendicular to the axis. In this case, if the width d1 of the second end flow passage section 80c in the direction of the drive axis O and the width d2 of the core flow passage section 80b in the direction of the drive axis O are the same in the axial cross section, the flow passage cross-sectional area of the second end flow passage section 80c is larger than the flow passage cross-sectional area of the core flow passage section 80b by the amount of the longer length in the direction perpendicular to the axis. As a result, the flow velocity of the cooling water flowing through the second end flow passage section 80c decreases, reducing the cooling effect in the second end flow passage section 80c.

In this regard, in this rotary machine 100, the width d1 of the second end flow passage portion 80c is smaller than the width d2 of the core flow passage portion 80b, and therefore the flow passage cross-sectional area of the second end flow passage portion 80c is reduced accordingly. Therefore, even if the inner peripheral end of the second end flow passage portion 80c is brought closer to the outer peripheral surface 62a of the second resin mold 62 and the length of the second end flow passage portion 80c in the direction perpendicular to the axis is increased in order to further enhance the cooling effect of the second coil end 34b, it is possible to prevent a decrease in the cooling effect due to the increased flow passage cross-sectional area.

In addition, in this rotating machine 100, the outer peripheral surface 33a of the stator core 33 of the stator 31 is press-fitted into the inner peripheral surface 10e of the motor housing 10, the inner peripheral surface 33b of the stator core 33 is covered with a third resin mold 63, the first coil end 34a is covered with a first resin mold 61, and the second coil end 34b is covered with a second resin mold 62. In other words, the outer surfaces of the stator 31 other than the outer peripheral surface 33a of the stator core 33 that abuts the inner peripheral surface 10e of the motor housing 10 are covered by the integrated first resin mold 61, second resin mold 62, and third resin mold 63. This provides the stator 31 with high sealing performance and corrosion resistance.

The present invention has been described above with reference to examples, but it goes without saying that the present invention is not limited to the above examples and can be modified and applied as appropriate without departing from the spirit of the invention.

In the embodiment, in the cross section along the flow path axis, the inner peripheral end of the second end flow path portion 80c at the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 is located closer to the inner peripheral side of the stator core 33 than the outer peripheral surface 33a of the stator core 33, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. For example, in the cross section along the flow path axis, the inner peripheral end of the second end flow path portion 80c may be located between the inner peripheral end of the core flow path portion 80b at the core outer periphery facing portion 41 and the outer peripheral surface 33a of the stator core 33, or may be located at the same radial position of the motor housing 10 as the inner peripheral end of the core flow path portion 80b. Essentially, it is sufficient that the inner diameter of the motor housing 10 at the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 is smaller than the inner diameter of the motor housing 10 at the core outer periphery facing portion 41.

In the embodiment, the outer housing peripheral wall 16b of the outer housing 16 extends cylindrically in the front-to-rear direction with a constant inner diameter, but the present invention is not limited to this configuration. For example, the inner diameter of the portion of the outer housing peripheral wall 16b corresponding to the second end outer periphery facing portion 43 may be smaller than the inner diameter of the portion corresponding to the core outer periphery facing portion 41.

In the embodiment, a turbo-type fluid machine is provided with the rotary machine 100, but the rotary machine of the present invention may also be applied to air conditioning compressors, turbines, generators, blowers, etc.

In the turbo fluid machines of the embodiments, the "fluid" in the present invention is air, but this is not limited to this, and the "fluid" in the present invention may also be a refrigerant used in air conditioning. Furthermore, the "coolant" in the present invention may be a cooling liquid other than cooling water.
