Here: the second flow channel arranged on the inner wall of the first bearing chamber has the same structure as the second flow channel arranged on the inner wall of the second bearing chamber; of course, the structure may be different, and is not limited thereto.

The bearing 25 accommodated in the first bearing chamber is defined as a first bearing 257, the bearing 25 accommodated in the second bearing chamber is defined as a second bearing 258, and the first flow channel 251 is opened on both the first bearing 257 and the second bearing 258. The driving device 2 further includes a first rubber ring 281 surrounding the outer periphery of the first bearing 257 and a second rubber ring 282 surrounding the outer periphery of the second bearing 258, wherein the first rubber ring 281 is received in the first bearing chamber and sleeved outside the second body 253 of the first bearing 257 to seal a gap between the first bearing 257 and the first bearing chamber; the second rubber ring 282 is received in the second bearing chamber and is sleeved on the outer side of the second body 253 of the second bearing 258 to seal the gap between the second bearing 258 and the second bearing chamber.

The second flow passage can enhance the passing performance of liquid in the first bearing chamber; on the other hand, the friction between the first rubber ring 281 and the bearing bracket 26 can be increased to prevent the first rubber ring 281 from rotating and wearing, thereby prolonging the service life of the whole pump 100.

For the second bearing 258 and second bearing chamber: the first flow channel 251 is arranged, on one hand, liquid (i.e. transmission medium) in the inner cavity 27 can enter the second bearing 258 through the first flow channel 251, so that the second bearing 258 is lubricated and cooled, and the service life of the second bearing 258 is prolonged; on the other hand, when the driving shaft 21 and the second bearing 258 rotate relatively, the groove 255 is located at the connecting position of the second body 253 and the second rubber ring 282, so that the friction force between the second bearing 258 and the second rubber ring 282 can be increased, and the second bearing 258 and the second rubber ring 282 are prevented from sliding relatively to each other to cause abrasion of the second rubber ring 282. The arrangement of the second flow passage can enhance the passing performance of liquid in the second bearing chamber on one hand; on the other hand, the friction between the second rubber ring 282 and the liquid-separating disc 24 can be increased to prevent the second rubber ring 282 from rotating and wearing, thereby prolonging the service life of the whole pump 100.

The driving device 2 further includes a stop ring 29 disposed between the motor rotor 22 and the first bearing 257, where the stop ring 29 is fixedly connected to the motor rotor 22 and is used for preventing the motor rotor 22 from moving toward the first bearing 257. Of course, when the pump 100 is in operation, the fluid entering the first bearing chamber from the first flow passage 251 of the first bearing 257 lubricates and cools the first bearing 257 and the stop ring 29 simultaneously, thereby prolonging the service life of the first bearing 257 and the stop ring 29.

Therefore, the first flow channel 251 is formed in the bearing 25, so that liquid can conveniently flow into the bearing 25 from the first flow channel 251, the bearing 25 has better lubricating property and heat dissipation performance, and the service life of the bearing 25 is prolonged; the friction force between the bearing 25 and the first rubber ring 281 and the second rubber ring 282 can be increased, and the bearing 25 and the first rubber ring 281 and the second rubber ring 282 are prevented from sliding relatively to each other to cause the first rubber ring 281 and the second rubber ring 282 to be worn; meanwhile, the weight of the bearing 25 can be reduced, and the material cost is saved.

Referring to fig. 3 and 4, the impeller 3 has a central shaft 31 fixed on the driving shaft 21, a plurality of impeller blades 32 surrounding the central shaft 31, and a liquid inlet 33 located at one end of the central shaft 31 and far away from the driving device 2. The middle shaft 31 drives the impeller 3 to rotate under the action of the driving shaft 21; a liquid outlet (not numbered) is formed between the adjacent impeller blades 32; the liquid inlet 33 is communicated with the liquid inlet pipeline 12, so that liquid enters the impeller 3 through the liquid inlet 33 after entering from the liquid inlet pipeline 12, and then flows out from the liquid outlet.

The heating device comprises a heating pipe 4 accommodated in the accommodating cavity 10, the heating pipe 4 is spirally accommodated in the accommodating cavity 10 to directly contact with liquid in the accommodating cavity 10 for heat exchange, so that the heating efficiency of the liquid in the accommodating cavity 10 is effectively improved, and the heating uniformity of the heating pipe 4 when heating the liquid is ensured.

The rear cover 5 covers the rear side of the driving device 2, and is used for protecting the driving device 2 to prevent the driving device 2 from being damaged.

In the use of the pump 100 of the present invention, first, liquid (i.e. a transmission medium) enters the housing chamber 10 through the liquid inlet pipe 12 and enters the impeller blades 32 through the liquid inlet 33 under the rotation action of the impeller 3; then, the liquid flows out along the liquid outlet between the impeller blades 32, a part of the liquid enters the inner cavity 27 through the exhaust hole and the gap between the driving shaft 21 and the bearing support 26, contacts with the motor rotor 22 to take away heat generated by the motor rotor 22 during operation, and then flows into the accommodating cavity 10 again to contact with the heating pipe 4 under the driving of the impeller 3, so as to complete heating; the other part of the liquid is in full contact with the heating pipe 4 in the accommodating cavity 10 to complete heating; finally, the heated liquid flows out through the liquid outlet pipeline 13; at this point, the heating and pumping of the liquid is completed, while also reducing the temperature of the motor rotor 22.

In summary, in the pump 100 of the present invention, the bearing 25 is provided with the first flow channel 251, and the first flow channel 251 penetrates through the bearing 25, so that when the pump 100 works, liquid can conveniently flow into the bearing 25 from the first flow channel 251 to lubricate and cool the bearing 25, which not only enables the bearing 25 to have good lubricity and good heat dissipation effect, but also prolongs the service life of the bearing 25; the friction force between the bearing 25 and the first rubber ring 281 and the second rubber ring 282 can be increased, and the bearing 25 and the first rubber ring 281 and the second rubber ring 282 are prevented from sliding relatively to each other to cause the first rubber ring 281 and the second rubber ring 282 to be worn; meanwhile, the weight of the bearing 25 can be reduced, and the material cost is saved.
