Description
Axial Type Fan The present invention relates to an axial-flow fan, and more specifically, to an axial-flow fan in which the entire impeller and the magnet portion are integrally formed using a plastic magnet, and only the shaft is insert-molded and injection-molded, and then only the desired inner portion is magnetized to form an N/S magnet, thereby allowing the back yoke to be omitted. Currently, to create a comfortable environment inside a vehicle, the vehicle's air conditioning system measures indoor temperature, humidity, and fine dust, then performs heating and cooling based on temperature and humidity data, and operates electrostatic precipitator filters based on fine dust data. One method of checking indoor temperature and humidity is to use a motor equipped in an in-car sensor to draw in indoor air and create a forced airflow to measure temperature and humidity, thereby checking the environmental conditions inside the vehicle. In addition, with the recent increase in interest regarding fine dust, indoor conditions are checked by measuring the concentration of fine dust. Fine dust measurement is also performed using a method that draws in indoor air using a motor equipped in the fine dust sensor. In-Car sensors and fine dust sensors are also installed on the grille or instrument panel of a vehicle, and detect the temperature and concentration (or amount of fine dust) of the indoor air by drawing in indoor air using an aspirator method. In this case, the fine dust sensor can measure the amount of fine dust by irradiating the inhaled indoor air with a predetermined light and measuring the amount of light scattered by the fine dust in the air. Conventional blower fans (i.e., aspiration motors) installed in the air passage to draw in indoor air of a vehicle are small and do not require precise and complex speed control, so single-phase motors using a single coil are used, which have a simple structure. The above-mentioned blower fan is an axial-flow type fan that draws in external air from an air intake on one side of the housing and discharges it along the axial direction to an air outlet on the other side, and can be installed in the flow path of the housing. In addition, cooling fans used to prevent overheating of electronic components are also axial-flow type fans. In conventional axial-flow fan motors, a brass bushing serving as a bearing housing is formed in the center by insert injection molding within a resin housing, and a sleeve bearing is inserted into the bushing to rotatably support the rotor's rotation axis. Additionally, a support sheet is inserted into the lower part of the bearing housing to reduce rotational resistance of the rotating shaft, and the housing is impregnated with oil. In this case, as the temperature rises due to the rotation of the rotor, the air and oil inside the bearing housing expand in volume due to thermal expansion, causing the oil to rise along the rotating shaft and scatter. In this situation, if a metal bearing housing is press-fitted into a resin housing, the heat dissipation is poor, making it prone to oil scattering if the temperature rises significantly. Furthermore, conventionally, when using a through-type sleeve bearing, a support seat is inserted into the lower part of the bearing housing to reduce rotational resistance of the rotating shaft extending below the sleeve bearing. However, during the manufacturing process, the support seat is often omitted and cannot be placed in a predetermined position, causing various problems, and there is also a problem of reduced durability due to wear of the support seat. In addition, conventional aspiration motors have a problem in which the rotating shaft detaches due to lift force when the rotor (impeller) rotates, and to prevent this, a structure is adopted in which a slit washer is coupled to a groove formed at the bottom of the rotating shaft. However, in this case, when the rotating shaft rises due to lift force when the rotor (impeller) rotates, the slit washer comes into contact with the sleeve bearing, causing a problem of noise. Furthermore, conventional fan motors can configure the rotor by attaching a magnet to the impeller using adhesive along with the back yoke, or by insert molding the magnet and back yoke during impeller injection. The aforementioned insert molding type and bond assembly method result in increased unit costs and, due to the existence of assembly tolerances, cause problems that negatively affect balance; therefore, balance correction is performed by inserting balance correction chips or other weights. In addition, conventional fan motors have a problem of reduced productivity because bonding and caulking operations on the contact surface between the stator and the bushing are essential to prevent the stator from detaching or rotating when assembling the stator to the bushing.
