Definitions
- the invention relates to an electromagnetic relay with a housing, with coil connection elements led out of the housing.
- a relay according to the preamble of claim 1 is known from EP-A-0 281 950.
- relays for certain purposes to regulate the control voltage or the coil current with a high thermal load both due to high switching currents inside the relay and high ambient temperatures.
- a typical application for such relays is the motor vehicle, where the contacts have to carry very high currents at low voltages, while the ambient temperature fluctuates greatly and can be, for example, up to 125 ° C. If you add the self-heating of the relay, there are thermal loads of up to 200 ° C, which an integrated circuit cannot cope with. Precisely because of the strong temperature fluctuations, however, regulation of the control voltage is desired or necessary, in which case the control module would also like to be accommodated in the relay housing in order to save space and assembly.
- the object of the invention is to provide a relay of the type mentioned with an integrated circuit housed in the relay housing as a control module, in which the harmful effects of elevated temperatures, be it through the heat loss in the coil and contacts, be it through the self-heating of the circuit, can be eliminated or at least significantly reduced with as little design effort as possible.
- the flat plugs as used for example for automotive relays, have a width of 6.3 or 9.5 mm and a thickness of 0.8 to 1.2 mm. With such a large cross-section, good heat dissipation is possible since the wiring connected to the flat plug via a jack or a cable lug carries the heat on.
- the large cross-section of the tabs for the connection elements of the contacts is important because of the high switching currents, while the coil connections per se only have to carry a relatively low current. According to the standard, however, the coil connection tabs have the same cross-section. For the control module to be connected to the coil, there is thus an additional advantageous utilization of this large plug cross section, which is present anyway, for heat dissipation.
- the coupling section of the flat connector is expediently arranged above it in such a way that the circuit is shielded from heat sources in the relay.
- the thermal coupling between the integrated circuit and the flat connector can be carried out by a thermal paste or by other means if the IC and the flat connector are installed as separate parts.
- the integrated circuit can also be arranged flat between parallel coupling sections of two flat plugs in thermally conductive coupling, it being firmly connected to at least one of the flat plugs. In this case, heat is dissipated via two flat plugs and is therefore even more effective. If the materials permit, the integrated circuit can be firmly connected to both flat plugs, one connection of the circuit being contacted with one of the flat plugs. However, if a relative movement due to the thermal expansion of the different parts has to be taken into account, only one of the flat plugs is firmly connected to the IC, while the second flat plug is connected loosely, but also thermally conductive, and contacted via a flexible connection with the corresponding connection element of the IC .
- the integrated circuit can be arranged, preferably embedded, with the respective coupling section of the flat plug or the flat plug together at least partially within the base plate. Different types of fastening are possible. When inserted into recesses in the base plate the remaining openings are sealed by potting compound, whereby, for example, the flexible connections are covered and sealed. This is particularly advantageous if the flat plug with the integrated circuit is inserted or embedded in the region of a recess which is only accessible from the outside of the relay housing. In this case, subsequent sealing is definitely desirable.
- Figure 1 basically shows the connection of a control module in the form of an integrated circuit 1 for controlling a coil 2 in a relay.
- the coil connections 3 and 4 lead to the outside, which are partly connected directly and partly indirectly via the three connections 11, 12 and 13 of the integrated circuit to the coil 2 in the interior of the relay.
- FIG. 2 shows a schematic sectional illustration of a relay housing with a cap 6 and a base plate 5, the arrangement of the coil 2 and its connection to the coil connections 3 and 4, which are designed as tabs 31 and 41.
- the flat plug 31 has on the inside of the base plate 5 a bent coupling section 32 which shields the IC 10 arranged in a recess 51 of the base plate 5 against the coil and against other heat sources, not shown, in the relay.
- a good thermal connection between the IC 10 and the coupling section 32 of the flat plug is produced with a thermal paste 52.
- FIGS. 3 and 4 show an integrated circuit 1 which is produced as a one-piece component with a coupling section 32 in the form of a cooling plate, the flat plug 31 being formed directly on this cooling plate.
- the cooling plate in the form of the coupling section 32 directly forms the circuit connection 11 from FIG. 1, while the two connections 12 and 13 are led out separately.
- the cooling plate in the form of the coupling section 32 can be anchored vertically according to FIG. 3 with the flat plug 31 or angled according to FIG. 4 in the base plate 5.
- FIGS. 5 to 7 show an embodiment in which an angled coupling section 32 of the flat connector 31 and an angled second coupling section 42 of the flat connector 41 overlap in parallel.
- the integrated circuit 10 is inserted between these two coupling sections in the overlap region, it being firmly connected to the coupling section 32, but is only loosely connected to the coupling section 42, but is also thermally conductive. Thermal conduction can also be ensured here using a thermal paste. Since the coupling section 42 also requires an electrical connection to the connection 13 of the IC 10, this connection 13a is designed to be flexible and contacted separately.
- the two tabs with their coupling sections 32 and 42 are firmly anchored in the base plate 5 by inserting or embedding, the flexible connection 13a and the connection 12 led to the coil being accessible in an opening 7 to the interior of the housing. If necessary, this can The opening can be subsequently sealed or encapsulated by potting compound or the like.
- FIG. 6 A similar arrangement of the flat plugs 31 and 41 is shown in FIG. 6, in which case a fixed coupling is provided between the IC 10 and the coupling section 42. A loose coupling is thus formed between the IC 10 and the coupling section 32; therefore, in this case, the connection 11 of the IC is contacted with the coupling section 32 via a flexible connection 11a.
- FIG. 7 the arrangement of FIG. 6 has been modified to the extent that embedding or other anchoring of the coupling sections 32 and 42 is now carried out in such a way that a recess 8 is accessible from the outside.
- this recess can be subsequently sealed with potting compound 9.
