Publication number: 20240146153Abstract: An electric motor includes a shaft, a rotor, a stator, a first bracket, a second bracket, a bypass definer, a first guide, and a second guide. The bypass definer defines an internal air bypass located radially outward from the stator for internal air to flow through. The first guide transfers heat transferred from the internal air passing through inside a plurality of first partition walls connecting the internal air bypass and an internal space to external air and guides the external air to an external air passage. The second guide transfers heat transferred from the internal air passing through inside a second partition wall connecting the internal air bypass and an internal space to the external air and guides the external air outside.Type: ApplicationFiled: March 8, 2021Publication date: May 2, 2024Applicant: Mitsubishi Electric CorporationInventors: Shunsuke KOSAKA, Seiji HAGA

Patent number: 11967879Abstract: A first bracket in an electric motor includes an inflow path through which outside air flows inside, and an outflow path through which the air having flowed in flows outside. A stator core included in the electric motor includes a first ventilation path that is coupled with the inflow path and a second ventilation path that is coupled with the outflow path. A second bracket includes a third ventilation path that forms a flow path from the first ventilation path to the second ventilation path positioned symmetrically to the first ventilation path with respect to a plane containing a rotation axis. The air having flowed into the inside of the electric motor through the inflow path passes, in order, through the first ventilation path, the third ventilation path, and the second ventilation path, and flows out to the outside of the electric motor through the outflow path.Type: GrantFiled: April 10, 2019Date of Patent: April 23, 2024Assignee: MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC CORPORATIONInventors: Yoshifumi Ajioka, Kazuki Iwasa, Seiji Haga

Patent number: 10752263Abstract: A vehicular cooling device includes an opening, a discharge port, an air channel, and a fan. The opening is formed in a surface parallel to a travelling direction of a vehicle. The discharge port is formed in a surface of the housing and connected to the opening via the air channel. The fan is provided inside the air channel. First blockers are spaced apart in the travelling direction in the opening. Each first blocker extends in a direction perpendicular to both the travelling direction and an inflow direction of the outside air, and includes first and second members. The first member is a plate-like member having a main surface intersecting the travelling direction. The first member and the second member are symmetric with respect to a plane perpendicular to the travelling direction, and have a travelling-direction spacing therebetween that increases along the inflow direction of the outside air.Type: GrantFiled: February 29, 2016Date of Patent: August 25, 2020Assignee: MITSUBISHI ELECTRIC CORPORATIONInventors: Tetsuya Sakurada, Kenichi Nakagawa, Kazuki Iwasa, Seiji Haga
