A water-cooling device includes a pump case, at least one winding, a driver and a heat exchange member. The pump case has a top section, a bottom section and a peripheral section together defining a pump chamber. The winding is disposed on a circuit board. The circuit board is disposed on any of the top section, the bottom section and the peripheral section. The driver is disposed in the pump chamber. At least one magnetic member is disposed on the driver in a position corresponding to the winding, whereby the magnetic member can induce and magnetize the winding on the circuit board. The heat exchange member is connected with the pump case. By means of the structural design of the water-cooling device, the volume of the water-cooling device is greatly minified and the structure of the water-cooling device is thinned.

ELECTRIC WATER PUMP

An electric water pump is configured to reduce an axial distance between a stator and a rotor. Since a separator of a stator casing is formed so as not to cover an upper surface of a stator, the axial thickness of the separator is reduced and the axial distance between the stator and the rotor is also reduced. The reduction in the axial distance allows a motor to have increased output and efficiency.
