Embodiment Construction

[0034] Embodiments of the invention are described for a lead frame for coupling an inverter for an electric motor or generator, preferably for the wheels of a vehicle, to a DC power supply. However, if the electric motor is located within the vehicle, it may be located anywhere within the vehicle. The motor is of the type having a set of coils which is part of a stator attached to the vehicle, radially surrounded by a rotor carrying a set of magnets attached to the wheel. For the avoidance of doubt, aspects of the invention are equally applicable to generators having the same arrangement. As such, the definition of electric motor is intended to include generators. Additionally, certain aspects of the invention are applicable to devices having a rotor centrally mounted within radially surrounding coils. As will be understood by those skilled in the art, the present invention is suitable for use with other types of electric motors.

[0035] For the purposes of this example, i...

Abstract

A lead frame for electrically coupling a first inverter having a plurality of inverter legs to a first set of coil windings of an electric motor or generator, the lead frame comprising a printed circuit board having a plurality of circuit board layers, wherein each circuit board layer includes an insulating substrate having an electrically conductive layer formed on the insulating substrate, wherein a first circuit board layer includes a first electrically conductive layer arranged to be coupled to a first coil winding of the first set of coil windings and a first leg of the first inverter, asecond circuit board layer includes a second electrically conductive layer arranged to be coupled to a second coil winding of the first set of coil windings and a second leg of the first inverter, a third circuit board layer includes a third electrically conductive layer arranged to be coupled to a third coil winding of the first set of coil windings and a third leg of the first inverter; and a fourth circuit board layer includes a fourth electrically conductive layer arranged to be coupled to the first coil winding, the second coil winding, and the third coil winding to form a neutral point between the first coil winding, the second coil winding, and the third coil winding.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention relates to a lead frame, in particular a lead frame for forming a plurality of sub-motors. Background technique [0002] As interest in environmentally friendly vehicles increases, so does the interest in using electric motors to provide drive torque for vehicles. [0003] An electric motor system generally comprises an electric motor with a control unit arranged to control the power of the electric motor. Examples of known types of electric motors include induction motors, synchronous brushless permanent magnet motors, switched reluctance motors, and linear motors. Due to the high torque requirements required to propel the vehicle, the most common type of electric motor used for this purpose is a three-phase electric motor. [0004] Three-phase electric motors typically include three coil sets, where each coil set is arranged to generate a magnetic field associated with one of the three phases of an alternating voltage.
