Problems solved by technology

Such increased terminal voltage can damage the IGBT power module, and the increased terminal voltage can degrade the electromagnetic wave performance of the inverter system
[0009] Moreover, since the bus bars of the positive and negative bus bar boards are exposed, it can be observed that the bus bars are oxidized in the air or mechanically worn so that the IGBT power module is short-circuited due to foreign objects

Abstract

The present invention provides a capacitor for an inverter of a vehicle comprising a case; a plurality of capacitor unit modules; positive and negative bus plates that are disposed in the case to be connected to the capacitor unit modules; and a power module corresponding to the unit modules, wherein that the unit modules are insulated from each other through an insulating material, and wherein the bus plates each comprise a bus bar that overlaps with the other bus bar and is electrically connected to the power module.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to an inverter system for a hybrid electric vehicle or a fuel cell vehicle. The invention more particularly relates to bus bars for capacitors absorbing ripple currents. Background technique [0002] Recently, from the viewpoint of green energy, hybrid vehicles and fuel cell vehicles, which replace internal combustion engine vehicles, are gaining attention. [0003] As a power source, high-power electric motors are applied to hybrid vehicles and fuel cell vehicles, and inverter systems are applied to convert high-voltage DC power generated by batteries or fuel cells into 3-phase (U, V, and W phases) AC power, for charging / discharging. [0004] Inverter systems are equipped with capacitors to absorb ripple current by switching semiconductor switching elements such as insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT) power modules composed of power conversion switching elements. [0005] As mentioned above, the capacitor generally include...
