  • Publication number: 20220025889
    Abstract: A pump group of a cooling system of a vehicle is provided. The pump group extends along a main axis and includes an axial flow stator that produces an electromagnetic action in a direction parallel to the main axis, and two command modules positioned at two opposite axial ends of the axial flow stator. Each command module has an impeller, an impeller shaft extending along the main axis and having an impeller end, the impeller being integrally connected to the impeller end, and a control portion configured to receive a rotational control action. A rotor is integrally connected to the control portion that is controllable in rotation by action of the axial flow stator.

  • Publication number: 20210381420
    Abstract: A pump group of a cooling system of a vehicle engine is provided. The pump group extends with respect to an axis (X-X) and has an impeller, a shaft, the impeller being integrally mounted on the shaft, an electric motor having a rotor integrally mounted on the shaft and a stator. A pump body, extending with respect to the axis (X-X), has an impeller casing housing the impeller in an impeller chamber, and a motor casing housing the electric motor in a motor chamber. The motor casing has an intermediate tubular wall positioned between the rotor and the stator so as to define a rotor chamber and a stator chamber sealingly separated from each other. The stator chamber contains a predefined amount of cooling oil, the predefined amount of cooling oil at least partially filling the stator chamber so that the stator is cooled by convection.
