具体实施方式
下面参照附图描述本发明的示例性实施方式。
如图2至图4所示,本公开提供一种用于逆变系统的散热器2和集成散热器2的逆变模块1。散热器2包括支架22、冷却液腔21和电磁屏蔽托架23,冷却液腔21用于容纳冷却液,支架22限定冷却液腔21。逆变模块1包括上述散热器2和安装于散热器2的IGBT 3、电容器4和母排5。母排5包括直流母排52和交流母排51。直流母排52与电容器4电连接、电容器4与IGBT 3电连接,IGBT 3与交流母排51电连接,从而直流电通过直流母排52被输入到逆变系统,交流电通过交流母排51从逆变系统输出。
支架22可以包括支架本体220、支架翼部221和支架脚222。支架本体220可以形成为板状,从而具有两个主平面,两个主平面沿第一方向A(参见图8)排布。冷却液腔21可以由支架本体220限定。支架本体220可以形成为长方形板状,冷却液腔21的入口211和出口212可以沿支架本体220的长度方向排布,从而冷却液沿支架本体220的长度方向流动。
支架脚222从支架本体220伸出,例如可以沿第一方向A从支架本体220伸出,即垂直于支架本体220的主平面伸出,从而支架22具有大致U形。支架脚222可以有两个,两个支架脚222分别位于板状的支架本体220的两端,例如在长度方向上的两端。支架脚222和支架本体220限定出位于支架本体220的一个主平面的一侧的容纳空间,该容纳空间可以用于容纳例如电容器4(后文详述)。
支架脚222可以具有安装部2220,安装部2220用于与外部装置安装,安 装部2220例如可以具有螺栓孔222a,从而与外部装置螺栓连接,这样,散热器2可以通过支架脚222方便地安装于外部装置。
支架翼部221可以形成为板状,从而具有两个主平面。支架翼部221可以从支架本体220的侧方伸出,例如可以沿与第一方向A垂直的第二方向从支架本体220伸出,即支架翼部221的两个主平面与支架本体220的两个主平面沿相同的方向排布,支架翼部221与支架本体220平行。
如图2所示,冷却液腔21具有阻流槽213和导流槽214,阻流槽213包括位于冷却液腔21的入口侧和出口侧的两个阻流槽213,阻流槽213大致垂直于冷却液流动的方向延伸。导流槽214在两个阻流槽213之间延伸并连通两个阻流槽213,导流槽214沿冷却液腔的入口211和出口212的排布方向延伸。
阻流槽213的截面形状大致为V形,从入口211进入的冷却液能够沿入口侧的阻流槽213的倾斜的槽壁流入导流槽214,并沿导流槽214和出口侧的阻流槽213的倾斜的槽壁流入出口侧的阻流槽213,并从出口212流出冷却液腔21。
阻流槽213能够使冷却液延迟离开冷却液腔21,从而获得更好的冷却效果。
散热器2具有接触区,接触区与IGBT 3、电容器4和母排5接触从而与它们进行热传递。接触区包括与IGBT 3接触的IGBT接触区、与电容器4接触的电容器接触区和与母排5接触的母排接触区。
如图3和图4所示,IGBT接触区和电容器接触区可以位于支架22在第一方向A上的两侧,例如支架本体220的两个主平面侧。母排接触区可以位于IGBT接触区和电容器接触区在排布方向上的连线的侧方。
散热器2提供多个接触区,并且支架本体220与IGBT接触区、电容器接触区和母排接触区形成叠层结构。从而,散热器2具有紧凑的结构,空间适 应性较好,并能够同时对IGBT 3、电容器4和母排5进行散热。
接触区可以由支架22的安装面形成,也可以由冷却液腔的腔壁形成,即可以通过支架22的安装面与IGBT 3、电容器4、母排5等待散热部件接触而传递热量,也可以通过冷却液直接与待散热部件接触而传递热量。
应当理解,支架22的安装面是指支架22的可接触和可安装的面。
如图2和图5所示,形成IGBT接触区的安装面可以为支架本体220的一个主平面,即IGBT接触区位于支架本体220的一个主平面侧。冷却液腔21在支架本体220的上述一个主平面侧的腔壁缺失,从而当IGBT 3安装于支架22并以散热表面与IGBT接触区接触时,该散热表面直接与冷却液接触而传递热量,这样热量传递的效率更高。
冷却液腔21在主平面侧的腔壁的面积较大,待散热部件能够以较大的面积与冷却液接触。
在IGBT 3与支架本体220的上述一个主平面之间还可以安装O形的密封圈9,密封圈9围绕冷却液腔21的位于该主平面的开口设置从而防止冷却液泄露。
如图6所示,形成电容器接触区的安装面可以为支架本体220的另一个主平面,即电容器接触区位于支架本体220的另一个主平面侧。当电容器4安装于支架22并以散热表面与电容器接触区接触时,该散热表面与支架本体220的主平面接触从而传递热量。
如图8所示,电容器4将热量传递至支架本体220,支架本体220从电容器4接收的热量进一步由冷却液带走。
将电容器接触区和IGBT接触区设置于支架本体220的主平面侧,能够提高散热效率。
如图3、图7所示,IGBT 3具有IGBT本体和耳部4a、51a,IGBT本体具 有与散热器2接触的散热表面并螺栓连接于支架本体220,耳部4a、51a从IGBT本体伸出并用于与电容器4和交流母排电连接。
电容器4具有电容器本体、连接部41和耳部3a、52a,电容器本体具有与散热器2接触的散热表面并螺栓连接于支架本体220。连接部41从电容器本体伸出并沿第一方向A向IGBT 3延伸,连接部41在支架本体220的侧方越过支架本体220。耳部3a、52a从连接部41伸出,以用于与IGBT 3和直流母排电连接。
IGBT 3的耳部4a和电容器4的耳部3a接触,从而IGBT 3和电容器4通过各自的耳部4a、3a内的电路电连通。IGBT 3的耳部4a和电容器4的耳部3a可以通过例如螺栓连接在一起。
继续参考图3和图4,形成母排接触区的安装面可以为支架翼部221的一个主平面,即母排接触区位于支架翼部221的一个主平面侧、IGBT接触区和电容器接触区在排布方向上的连线的侧方。
母排接触区在IGBT接触区和电容器接触区的侧方、特别是同一侧设置,这能够有效地缓解母排接触区与IGBT接触区和电容器接触区之间的电磁干扰,从而逆变模块1具有更好的电磁兼容性。
母排5可以沿支架翼部221伸出的方向延伸,即垂直于支架本体220的长度方向延伸。母排5包括间隔排布的多个母排5,例如间隔排布的三个交流母排51和两个直流母排52。
多个母排5可以垂直于支架翼部221的伸出方向排布,即沿支架本体220的长度方向排布。母排5在其延伸方向上的端部设置有耳部513a、524a,交流母排51的耳部513a与IGBT 3的耳部51a电连接,直流母排52的耳部524a与电容器4的耳部52a电连接。母排5的耳部513a与IGBT 3的耳部51a可以通过例如螺栓连接在一起,母排5的耳部524a和电容器4的耳部52a可以通过例如螺栓连接在一起。
散热器2还可以包括母排固定块8,母排固定块8例如由塑料等绝缘材料制成,并形成为沿多个母排5的排布方向延伸的长条体。母排固定块8可以具有多个凹部,从而当母排固定块8安装于支架翼部221时,母排固定块8与支架翼部221之间形成固定空间。
母排5在固定空间内安装,从而多个母排5与母排固定块8形成母排模块整体。母排固定块8还可以具有螺纹孔,从而母排模块整体可以通过例如螺栓连接的方式安装于支架翼部221。
在母排5与支架翼部221接触的散热表面上可以具有导热材料,从而提高母排5与散热器2之间的热传导效率。
电磁屏蔽托架23安装于支架本体220的一个主平面侧,例如对应于冷却液腔21的位置安装于支架本体220的一个主平面侧。在冷却液腔21的周围可以设置例如四个安装柱230,每个安装柱230具有螺纹孔,电磁屏蔽托架23通过例如螺栓连接的方式安装于安装柱230。
散热器2在电磁屏蔽托架23在第一方向A上的一侧具有第一安装空间,在电磁屏蔽托架23在第一方向A上的另一侧具有第二安装空间,第一安装空间和第二安装空间受电磁屏蔽托架23分隔从而在彼此之间几乎不存在电磁干扰。
第一安装空间安装有IGBT 3和IGBT驱动板32,第二安装空间安装有控制板6,控制板6用于接收外部的控制信号并向IGBT驱动板32传递执行信号,IGBT驱动板32接收控制板6的信号并驱动IGBT 3。控制板6和IGBT驱动板32电连接,例如控制板6和IGBT驱动板32通过电线连接,电线在电磁屏蔽托架23的侧方通过。
电磁屏蔽托架23能够缓解控制板6和IGBT驱动板32之间的电磁干扰。
在本实施方式中,形成IGBT接触区和电容器接触区的安装面均为支架 本体220的主平面,形成母排接触区的安装面为支架翼部221的主平面,这样IGBT接触区、电容器接触区和母排接触区与待散热部件之间的散热面积较大,能够提高散热效率。
在本实施方式中,支架22可以由铝合金等导热材料制成。
对本实施方式中的散热器2的散热效果进行实验验证:在冷却液温度为65摄氏度、冷却液流速为8L/min、IGBT 3的功率损耗为2640W的情况下,散热器2的热阻为0.011K/W,IGBT 3的最大温升大约为30摄氏度。具有本实施方式提供的散热器2的逆变模块1的温升较低。
本公开将散热器2和IGBT 3、电容器4和母排5集成一体,形成集成散热器2的逆变模块1,逆变模块1兼具散热功能和逆变器功能,具有较高的附加价值。
当然,本发明不限于上述实施方式,本领域技术人员在本发明的教导下可以对本发明的上述实施方式做出各种变型,而不脱离本发明的范围。
例如,在不违背逆变系统使用原理的前提下,基于上述构思,可以合理的设计IGBT 3、电容器4和母排5与散热器2之间的连接结构,并合理地交换IGBT 3、电容器4和母排5的位置。
在其他实施方式中,冷却液腔21可以具有专门的腔壁,从而通过该腔壁与待散热部件接触而传热,即IGBT接触区、电容器接触区和母排接触区三者均由支架22形成,从而IGBT 3、电容器4和母排5中三者均与支架接触并传热。
在其他实施方式中,IGBT 3的耳部51a、4a、电容器4的耳部3a、52a和母排5的耳部513a、524a还可以通过其他方式,例如电阻焊的方式连接在一起。
在其他实施方式中,可以围绕冷却液腔21的开口涂胶从而密封IGBT 3 和支架本体220。
