(13) Referring to
(14) Different forming processes for the shaft sleeve 5 are chosen according to different materials or different structures of the shaft sleeve 5. For example, in the case that the shaft sleeve 5 adopts polyphenylenesulfide (PPS) and a fibrous material, the shaft sleeve 5 can be formed by injection molding. In the case that the shaft sleeve 5 adopts a ceramic material, the shaft sleeve 5 can be formed by powder sintering. In the case that the shaft sleeve 5 adopts a metal material, the shaft sleeve 5 can be formed by forging, or can be formed by forging and then by machining. And in the case that the shaft sleeve 5 adopts a polyester fiber, the shaft sleeve 5 can be formed by machining.

(17) In this embodiment, the outer surface 54 includes a first reference surface, and the impeller limiting portion includes protrusions 55 arranged at intervals and protruding beyond the first reference surface of the outer surface 54 in a radial direction of the shaft sleeve 5. The protrusions 55 extend in an axial direction of the shaft sleeve 5. In this embodiment, the protrusions 55 are arranged at substantially same intervals or uniformly distributed in the circumferential direction of the outer surface 54, thus the shaft sleeve of injection molded, the shrinkage is relatively uniform, and the consistency of the shaft sleeve is relatively good. However, the shaft sleeves formed by other forming processes, the protrusions 55 extend in the axial direction of the shaft sleeve, and the protrusions 55 may be not uniformly distributed along the circumference direction of the shaft sleeve 5.
(18) Reference is made to
(19) An inner groove 531 is formed in the inner surface 57 of the shaft sleeve 5, and the inner grooves 531 are sunken inwards the body 51 of the shaft sleeve 5 and are distributed at regular intervals or uniformly distributed or symmetrically distributed in the circumferential direction of the inner surface. And the inner groove 531 is arranged to be in communication with the central hole 53. A depth of the inner groove 531 is less than one half of a thickness, of the thinnest portion of the body 51 of the shaft sleeve 5; and a width of the inner groove 531 is less than or equal to two times of the depth of the inner groove 531. The inner passage of the electrically driven pump 100 includes a certain clearance formed between the shaft 16 and the inner groove 531 of the shaft sleeve 5. When the electrically driven pump 100 works, the working medium may enter into the clearance between the shaft 16 and the shaft sleeve 5, thus may have a lubricating function, may also cool the contact surfaces of the shaft 16 and the shaft sleeve 5, and may ensure a service life of the shaft sleeve 5.

(23) In this embodiment, the protruding ribs 55 extend in the axial direction of the shaft sleeve 5, and the lengths of the protruding ribs 55 are slightly less than the length of the shaft sleeve 5, or, the lengths of the protruding ribs 55 are the same as the length of the shaft sleeve and a cutting structure is formed close to two ends of the shaft sleeve 5. Thus, in the case that an injection molded body including the impeller 3 is formed taking the shaft sleeve 5 as an injection molding insert, a plastic coating layer may be well formed. The protruding ribs 55 protrude in radial directions of shaft sleeve, and the protruding ribs 55 are arranged at positions corresponding to positions of the inner grooves 531, also, a protruding height of each of the protruding ribs 55 is the same as a depth of each of the inner grooves 531, thus may ensure the thickness uniformity of the wall of the shaft sleeve 5, avoid the shrinkage unevenness of the shaft sleeve 5 caused during injection molding, and may improve the product yield of the injection molded member of the shaft sleeve 5. A number of the inner grooves 531 is three, and a number of the protruding ribs 55 is three, and the three protruding ribs 55 are arranged symmetrically in the circumferential direction of the shaft sleeve 5, which facilitates the dynamic balance of the shaft sleeve in rotating process. The protruding ribs 55 arranged in such a way may prevent a rotating movement and an axial movement of the injection molded body including the impeller 3 with respect to the shaft sleeve 5.
