Description

本発明は、発熱体を内蔵したモータ駆動装置の冷却構造に関する。   The present invention relates to a cooling structure for a motor driving device incorporating a heating element.

近年、モータ駆動装置においては、小型高出力化の要望が強く、発熱体としてのパワースイッチング素子を搭載したパワー回路基板の近くに高密度に実装した制御回路基板が配置されるため、ファンモータの冷風により強制冷却をしている。   In recent years, in motor drive devices, there is a strong demand for small size and high output, and a control circuit board mounted at high density is disposed near a power circuit board on which a power switching element as a heating element is mounted. Forced cooling with cold air.

例えば、ファンの排気口に絞り形状のフードを設けることで、冷却用ファンの送風能力を充分に利用し、冷却効果を増大させた電子機器の冷却構造が提案されている（例えば、特許文献１参照）。   For example, a cooling structure of an electronic device has been proposed in which a throttle-shaped hood is provided at the exhaust port of the fan to sufficiently utilize the air blowing capability of the cooling fan and increase the cooling effect (for example, Patent Document 1). reference).

また、効果的な冷却構造として、整流素子とスイッチング素子が内側に取付けられ外側に冷却フィンが取付けられたケースを、冷却フィンと一体にアルミダイキャスト成形し、その底面は冷却ファン取付位置からスイッチング素子取付位置に行くに従って下端との距離が狭まるようにその中間に斜面が設けられ、冷却ファンにより送風される気流がなめらかにスイッチング素子の取付部に流れ込みスイッチング取付部での送風を上げるように構成したインバータ装置が提案されている（例えば、特許文献２参照）。

解決しようとする問題点は、上記従来の冷却構造では薄型化が困難な点である。すなわち、軸流ファンモータを放熱器に対して垂直に取付ける構造のため、薄型化ができなかった。一方、軸流ファンモータを放熱器に対して水平に取付けると薄型化は可能である反面、十分な放熱効果が期待できず、その結果、軸流ファンモータの片側に通気路のための十分な隙間を確保する必要があった。   The problem to be solved is that it is difficult to reduce the thickness of the conventional cooling structure. That is, since the axial fan motor is mounted vertically to the radiator, it cannot be thinned. On the other hand, if the axial fan motor is mounted horizontally with respect to the radiator, it is possible to reduce the thickness, but a sufficient heat dissipation effect cannot be expected, and as a result, there is sufficient ventilation for one side of the axial fan motor. It was necessary to secure a gap.

また、一般的に産業用途の設備機器は複数台の駆動モータを搭載するため、設備機器内に設置されるモータ制御装置は密着して設置される。このため、放熱についても考慮する必要があった。   In general, since equipment devices for industrial use are equipped with a plurality of drive motors, a motor control device installed in the equipment is closely installed. For this reason, it was necessary to consider heat dissipation.

本発明は上記従来の課題を解決するものであり、薄型化が可能で放熱効果の高いモータ駆動装置の冷却構造を提供することを目的とする。   SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION An object of the present invention is to provide a cooling structure for a motor drive device that can be reduced in thickness and has a high heat dissipation effect.

上記課題を解決するために本発明は、筐体内に設けた発熱体をファンモータの風で強制冷却する構造において、発熱体を取付けた放熱器と、前記放熱器に水平に取付けた軸流ファンモータと、前記放熱器と軸流ファンモータを覆う筐体とを備え、前記軸流ファンモータは環状の枠にスリットを有し、前記放熱器は軸流ファンモータの軸方向に複数の放熱フィンを設けたことを特徴とするモータ駆動装置の冷却構造である。   In order to solve the above-described problems, the present invention provides a structure in which a heating element provided in a housing is forcibly cooled by the wind of a fan motor, and a radiator with a heating element attached thereto and an axial fan mounted horizontally on the radiator. A motor and a housing covering the radiator and the axial fan motor, the axial fan motor has a slit in an annular frame, and the radiator has a plurality of radiating fins in the axial direction of the axial fan motor This is a cooling structure for a motor driving device.

本発明のモータ駆動装置の冷却構造によれば、軸流ファンモータを放熱器に水平に取付けても、環状枠のスリットを通過する風によって放熱フィンを冷却するため、放熱効果が高く、薄型化が可能となる。   According to the cooling structure of the motor drive device of the present invention, even if the axial fan motor is mounted horizontally on the radiator, the heat radiation fin is cooled by the wind passing through the slit of the annular frame, so the heat radiation effect is high and the thickness is reduced. Is possible.

また、筐体には、軸流ファンとの対向面および少なくとも放熱フィンと直交する２面に通気孔を設けるため、十分な通気口を確保した冷却構造となり薄型化が可能となる。   Further, since the housing is provided with air holes on the surface facing the axial fan and at least two surfaces orthogonal to the heat dissipating fins, a cooling structure with sufficient air holes is ensured and the thickness can be reduced.

さらに、筐体の外面に設けた突起部によってモータ制御装置に必要な通気口を確保するため、ユーザは複数台のモータ駆動装置を密着して設置することができる。   Further, since the ventilation holes necessary for the motor control device are secured by the protrusions provided on the outer surface of the housing, the user can install a plurality of motor drive devices in close contact with each other.

発熱体を取付けた放熱器と、前記放熱器に水平に取付けた軸流ファンモータと、前記放熱器と軸流ファンモータを覆う筐体とを備え、前記軸流ファンモータは環状の枠にスリットを有し、前記放熱器は軸流ファンモータの軸方向に複数の放熱フィンを設け、軸流ファンモータを覆う筐体に、ファンとの対向面および少なくとも放熱フィンと直交する２面に通気孔を設ける。   A radiator with a heating element attached thereto, an axial fan motor mounted horizontally on the radiator, and a casing covering the radiator and the axial fan motor, the axial fan motor having a slit in an annular frame The radiator has a plurality of radiating fins in the axial direction of the axial fan motor, and a housing that covers the axial fan motor has a vent hole in a surface facing the fan and at least two surfaces orthogonal to the radiating fins Is provided.

以下、本発明の冷却構造について、図を参照しながら説明する。   Hereinafter, the cooling structure of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.

図１において、本発明の冷却構造はパワー素子などの発熱体を取付けた放熱器１と、放熱器１に水平に取付けた軸流ファンモータ２と、放熱器１と軸流ファンモータ２を覆う筐体３とを備えている。   In FIG. 1, the cooling structure of the present invention covers a radiator 1 with a heating element such as a power element, an axial fan motor 2 mounted horizontally on the radiator 1, and a radiator 1 and an axial fan motor 2. A housing 3 is provided.

放熱器１は、基盤部１ａから平行に突出した放熱フィン１ｂを複数有しており、溶融アルミニウムを押出加工によって得られた後、軸流ファンモータ２を水平に取付けるため、放熱フィン１ｂの一部を、機械加工によって除去したものである。   The radiator 1 has a plurality of heat radiating fins 1b protruding in parallel from the base portion 1a. After the molten aluminum is obtained by extrusion processing, the axial fan motor 2 is mounted horizontally. The part is removed by machining.

放熱器１の平面部である基盤部１ａおよび加工面には、モータ制御装置の発熱体であるパワー素子として、パワーモジュール（スイッチング素子）、ダイオードモジュール、回生用の巻線抵抗器などがネジにて取付けられる（図示せず）。制御回路部は、放熱フィン１ｂの反対面である基盤部１ａに取付けられる（図示せず）。また、放熱フィン１ｂの先端部は、放熱器１に水平に取付けたファンモータ２の外側面と同程度になるように設定している。なお、基盤部１ａはネジ固定のための強度を確保する厚み以上を備えている。また、軸流ファンモータ２直下の放熱フィン１ｂを完全に除去せず、排気のための隙間を確保する。   A power module (switching element), a diode module, a regenerative winding resistor, etc. are used as screws as power elements that are heating elements of the motor control device, on the base part 1a that is a flat part of the radiator 1 and the processed surface. (Not shown). The control circuit portion is attached to the base portion 1a which is the opposite surface of the heat radiating fin 1b (not shown). Moreover, the front-end | tip part of the radiation fin 1b is set so that it may become comparable as the outer surface of the fan motor 2 attached to the heat radiator 1 horizontally. In addition, the base | substrate part 1a is provided with more than the thickness which ensures the intensity | strength for screw fixation. Further, the heat dissipating fins 1b immediately below the axial fan motor 2 are not completely removed, and a clearance for exhaust is secured.

軸流ファンモータ２は、環状の枠にスリット２ａを備えており、このスリット２ａは軸方向の風量を増加させる作用がある。   The axial fan motor 2 is provided with a slit 2a in an annular frame, and this slit 2a has an effect of increasing the air volume in the axial direction.

筐体３は、放熱器１の放熱フィン１ｂおよび軸流ファンモータ２を覆う箱型の金属製カバーであり、軸流ファンとの対向面に通気孔３ａと、少なくとも平行に設けた放熱フィン１ｂと直交する２面とに通気孔３ｂを設けて、軸流ファンモータ２の通気路を確保している。   The housing 3 is a box-shaped metal cover that covers the heat dissipating fins 1b and the axial fan motor 2 of the radiator 1, and has a vent hole 3a on the surface facing the axial fan and at least a heat dissipating fin 1b provided in parallel. Ventilation holes 3b are provided on two surfaces orthogonal to each other to secure a ventilation path for the axial fan motor 2.

上述した冷却構造において、軸流ファンモータ２が回転すると、周囲の空気はスリット２ａおよび通気孔３ａから流入して、放熱器１の基盤部１ａ側に排出される。排出された冷風は基盤部１ａ、放熱フィン１ｂ、および放熱フィン側の発熱体であるパワー素子に直接当たるため、効率よく冷却することができる。   In the cooling structure described above, when the axial fan motor 2 rotates, ambient air flows from the slit 2a and the vent hole 3a and is discharged to the base portion 1a side of the radiator 1. Since the discharged cool air directly hits the power element which is the heating element on the base part 1a, the radiation fins 1b, and the radiation fins, it can be efficiently cooled.

また、軸流ファンモータ２とが対向する筐体３の外面に突起部３ｃを設けており、図２に示すように、突起部３ｃによって通気孔３ａが塞がれるのを防止して通気路を確保するため、複数台のモータ制御装置を密着して配置でき、省スペースを実現できる。   Further, a projection 3c is provided on the outer surface of the housing 3 facing the axial fan motor 2, and as shown in FIG. 2, the vent 3a is prevented from being blocked by the projection 3c. Therefore, a plurality of motor control devices can be arranged in close contact with each other, and space saving can be realized.

このように、軸流ファンモータ２を放熱器１の放熱フィン１ｂの中に水平に配置するため、薄型化が可能となり、筐体３に設けた通気孔３ａ，３ｂおよび突起部３ｃによって軸流ファンモータ２の通気路を確保できるため、省スペースで冷却効率のよいモータ制御装置を提供することができる。   As described above, since the axial fan motor 2 is horizontally disposed in the heat radiating fins 1b of the radiator 1, the thickness can be reduced, and the axial flow is formed by the vent holes 3a and 3b and the protrusion 3c provided in the housing 3. Since the air passage of the fan motor 2 can be secured, a motor control device that saves space and has good cooling efficiency can be provided.

本発明のモータ制御装置の冷却構造は、温度上昇を嫌う用途の薄型化に有用である。   The cooling structure of the motor control device of the present invention is useful for reducing the thickness of applications that dislike temperature rise.
