Cooling structure of fan motor

摘要

A fan motor has an end case having an annular recess. An air passage hole is formed in the annular recess defined by axially outer and inner tubular guide walls formed on the end case. A cover member covering the air passage hole is provided on a fan shroud. First and second ring-shaped ribs are integrally formed on the side of the cover member facing the end case, so as to form a labyrinth structure in cooperation with an open end of a motor yoke and with the radially outer peripheral surface of the annular recess.
