[0031] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0032] In the description of the present application, the terms "first", "second", etc. are used to distinguish different objects rather than to describe a specific order, and therefore should not be understood as limiting the present application.

[0033] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the embodiments of the present application are only used to illustrate the basic concept of the present application in a schematic manner. The illustrations only show the components related to the present application rather than being drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the type, quantity and proportion of each component may be changed arbitrarily, and the component layout may also be more complicated.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1It is a module schematic diagram of a vehicle 100 in an embodiment of the present application. The vehicle 100 includes a filter circuit 1, an interference source 200 and an interfered device 300, and the filter circuit 1 is connected between the interference source 200 and the interfered device 300. In some embodiments, the interference source 200 is a high-voltage power supply system for the whole vehicle, and the high-voltage power supply system for the whole vehicle includes a high-voltage battery pack, a motor and a whole vehicle control device, etc., wherein high voltage refers to a voltage greater than or equal to 300V, and the whole vehicle control device includes a BCM (body control module), a BMS (Battery Management System) and various control modules; the interfered device 300 is an electronic control product component, and the electronic control product component includes a switching power supply module, an MCU (Microcontroller Unit, microcontroller unit) control module, a drive module, a power signal acquisition module, etc. Among them, when the motor starts and stops and the whole vehicle control device, etc., a common-mode interference signal will be generated and the electronic control product component will be interfered with through the power supply harness. The electronic control product component itself will also generate a common-mode interference signal and interfere with the whole vehicle control device through the power supply harness. Therefore, the filter circuit 1 is used to filter out the common mode interference between the interference source 200 and the interfered device 300. In some embodiments, the filter circuit 1 is also used to filter out the electromagnetic interference between the interference source 200 and the interfered device 300.

[0035] It is understandable that, in some other embodiments, the filter circuit 1 is also used to filter out differential mode interference between the interference source 200 and the interfered device 300, etc., which is not limited here.

[0036] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 The figure is a schematic diagram of the layout of the filter circuit in the prior art. The filter circuit 1 includes a PCB (Printed Circuit Board) 11, a filter element 12a, a common mode inductor 13, a connector 14 and a wiring harness 15. The filter element 12a, the common mode inductor 13 and the connector 14 are installed side by side on the surface of the PCB 11, and the wiring harness 15 is connected to the connector 14. Therefore, the filter element 12a, the common mode inductor 13 and the connector 14 of the filter circuit 1 are arranged in a planar manner as a whole, which occupies a large planar area of ​​the PCB 11 and cannot reduce the planar size of the PCB 11, and cannot meet the requirements of product miniaturization. Furthermore, when the filter circuit 1 is a high-power filter circuit, that is, its power is greater than or equal to 3KW, its related components are relatively large in size. Therefore, when the filter element 12a, the common-mode inductor 13 and the connector 14 of the filter circuit 1 are arranged in a planar manner as a whole, they occupy a larger plane area of ​​the PCB board 11 and cannot meet the requirements of product miniaturization.

[0037] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The schematic diagram of the layout of the filter circuit in one embodiment of the present application. The filter circuit 1 includes a PCB board 11, a common mode filter 12, a connector 14 and a wiring harness 15. The PCB board 11, the common mode filter 12, the connector 14 and the wiring harness 15 are arranged along the height direction H of the common mode filter 12, and the common mode filter 12 is provided with an input terminal 121 and an output terminal 122 at opposite ends in the height direction H. The input terminal 121 of the common mode filter 12 is connected to the connector 14, the wiring harness 15 is connected to the connector 14, the wiring harness 15 is used to connect to the interference source 200, and the output terminal 122 of the common mode filter 12 is connected to the PCB board 11.

[0038] Thus, the PCB board 11, the common-mode filter 12, the connector 14 and the wiring harness 15 of the filter circuit 1 are arranged along the height direction H of the common-mode filter 12, and the overall layout is vertical. The plane area of ​​the PCB board 11 occupied by the common-mode filter 12, the connector 14 and the wiring harness 15 of the filter circuit 1 is reduced, the plane size of the PCB board 11 can be reduced, and the miniaturization requirement of the product is met.

[0039] Please refer to Figures 4 to 8 , Figure 4 is a schematic diagram of the three-dimensional structure of a common mode filter in an embodiment of the present application; Figure 5 for Figure 4 Schematic diagram of the decomposition of Figure 6 for Figure 5 An enlarged schematic diagram of the first circuit board and its related components; Figure 7 for Figure 5 Schematic diagram of the structure from another perspective; Figure 8 for Figure 7 An enlarged schematic diagram of the second circuit board and its related components.

[0040] For some examples, please refer to Figure 4 The common-mode filter 12 includes a filter device 123, the input terminal 121 and the output terminal 122. The filter device 123 includes a common-mode inductor 13. The input terminal 121, the common-mode inductor 13 and the output terminal 122 are arranged along a height direction H of the filter device 123. The common-mode inductor 13 is connected between the input terminal 121 and the output terminal 122.

[0041] Thus, the input terminal 121, the common-mode inductor 13 and the output terminal 122 are arranged along the height direction H of the filter element 123, so that the input terminal 121, the common-mode inductor 13 and the output terminal 122 of the common-mode filter 12 are arranged vertically as a whole, which can reduce the plane area occupied by the common-mode filter 12 on the PCB board 11, reduce the plane size of the PCB board 11, and meet the requirements of product miniaturization.

[0042] In this embodiment, the input terminal 121 is located above the common mode inductor 13, and the output terminal 122 is located below the common mode inductor 13. In other embodiments, the input terminal 121 may be located below the common mode inductor 13, and the output terminal 122 may be located above the common mode inductor 13, which is not limited here.

[0043] It can be understood that, in some other embodiments, when the filter circuit 1 is used to filter out differential mode interference, the common mode inductor can be replaced by a differential mode inductor.

[0044] For some examples, please refer to Figures 5 to 8 The filter device 123 further includes an input filter capacitor 1231 and an output filter capacitor 1232. The input filter capacitor 1231, the common mode inductor 13 and the output filter capacitor 1232 are arranged along a height direction H of the filter device.

[0045] Therefore, the filter device 123 is arranged vertically as a whole. Compared with the planar layout, the planar area of ​​the PCB board 11 occupied by the filter device 123 in the vertical layout as a whole will be reduced, which can reduce the planar size of the PCB board 11 and meet the requirements of product miniaturization.

[0046] In some embodiments, the common mode filter 12 further includes a first circuit board 124. The first circuit board 124 is located on one side of the common mode inductor 13 in the height direction H thereof. The input terminal 121 and the input filter capacitor 1231 are connected to a side of the first circuit board 124 away from the common mode inductor 13. The input terminal 131 of the common mode inductor 13 is connected to a side of the first circuit board 124 close to the common mode inductor 13.

[0047] Thus, the input terminal 121 and the input filter capacitor 1231 are located on the same side of the common-mode inductor 13, and the input terminal 121, the input filter capacitor 1231 and the input end 131 of the common-mode inductor 13 are all connected to the first circuit board 124, which can improve the connection stability of the input terminal 121, the input filter capacitor 1231 and the input end 131 of the common-mode inductor 13.

[0048] In some embodiments, the common-mode filter 12 also includes a second circuit board 125, which is located on the other side of the common-mode inductor 13 in its height direction H, the output terminal 122 and the output filter capacitor 1232 are connected to the side of the second circuit board 125 away from the common-mode inductor 13, and the output terminal 132 of the common-mode inductor 13 is connected to the side of the second circuit board 125 close to the common-mode inductor 13.

[0049] Thus, the output terminal 122 and the output filter capacitor 1232 are located on the same side of the common-mode inductor 13, and the output terminal 122, the output filter capacitor 1232 and the output end 132 of the common-mode inductor 13 are all connected to the second circuit board 125, which can improve the connection stability of the output terminal 122, the output filter capacitor 1232 and the output end 132 of the common-mode inductor 13.

[0050] In some embodiments, the common-mode filter 12 further includes a metal sheath 126, which is disposed around the common-mode inductor 13 and connected between the first circuit board 124 and the second circuit board 125, and a barrel-shaped space is formed between the metal sheath 126, the first circuit board 124, and the second circuit board 125, and the passage space is used to accommodate the common-mode inductor 13.

[0051] Therefore, the barrel-shaped space can shield electromagnetic interference signals and improve the anti-interference performance of the common mode filter 12 .

[0052] For some examples, please refer to Figure 5 The common mode inductor 13 includes a ring-shaped iron core and two coils wound on the ring-shaped iron core. The two coils have the same number of turns and phase, but are wound in opposite directions. The common mode inductor 13 includes two input terminals 131. The input terminal 121 correspondingly includes two input terminals 121. The two input terminals 121 are respectively connected to the two input terminals 131 through the internal wiring of the first circuit board 124. Please refer to Figure 5 and Fig. 9 The input filter capacitor 1231 includes a first capacitor 1231a, a second capacitor 1231b and a third capacitor 1231c, wherein the first capacitor 1231a is connected across the two input terminals 121, one end of the second capacitor 1231b is connected to one of the two input terminals 121, and the other end is grounded by connecting to the metal sheath 126, and one end of the third capacitor 1231c is connected to one of the two input terminals 121, and the other end is grounded by connecting to the metal sheath 126.

[0053] Therefore, common mode interference and electromagnetic interference filtering are achieved through the input filter capacitor 1231 and the common mode inductor 13.

[0054] For some examples, please refer to Figure 7 The common mode inductor 13 includes two output terminals 132, and the output terminal 122 correspondingly includes two output terminals 122, and the two output terminals 122 are respectively connected to the two output terminals 132 through the internal wiring of the second circuit board 125. Please refer to Figure 7 and Fig. 9 The output filter capacitor 1232 includes a fourth capacitor 1232a, a fifth capacitor 1232b and a sixth capacitor 1232c, wherein the fourth capacitor 1232a is connected across the two output terminals 122, one end of the fifth capacitor 1232b is connected to one of the two output terminals 122, and the other end is grounded by being connected to the metal sheath 126, and one end of the sixth capacitor 1232c is connected to one of the two output terminals 122, and the other end is grounded by being connected to the metal sheath 126.

[0055] In some embodiments, please refer again to Figure 5 and Figure 6 , two first plug-in ports 1241 are arranged at intervals on the first circuit board 124, and the two input terminals 121 are respectively plugged into the two first plug-in ports 1241. The first capacitor 1231a is connected across the two first plug-in ports 1241, and the second capacitor 1231b and the third capacitor 1231c are arranged adjacent to one end of the two first plug-in ports 1241. Therefore, the first capacitor 1231a, the second capacitor 1231b and the third capacitor 1231c are arranged in a triangular shape. Two first connection terminals 1243 are also arranged at intervals on the first circuit board 124, and the two first connection terminals 1243 are respectively arranged adjacent to the other ends of the two first plug-in ports 1241. The two first connection terminals 1243 are respectively connected to the two input terminals 131 of the common mode inductor 13.

[0056] Therefore, the input terminal 121, the first capacitor 1231a, the second capacitor 1231b, the third capacitor 1231c, and the input end 131 of the common mode inductor 13 are all connected to the first circuit board 124, which can improve the connection stability.

[0057] In some embodiments, please refer again to Figure 7 and Figure 8, two second plug-in ports 1251 are arranged at intervals on the second circuit board 125, and the two output terminals 122 are respectively plugged into the two second plug-in ports 1251. The fourth capacitor 1232a is connected across the two second plug-in ports 1251, and the fifth capacitor 1232b and the sixth capacitor 1232c are arranged adjacent to one end of the two second plug-in ports 1251. Therefore, the fourth capacitor 1232a, the fifth capacitor 1232b and the sixth capacitor 1232c are arranged in a triangular shape. Two second connection terminals 1253 are also arranged at intervals on the second circuit board 125, and the two second connection terminals 1253 are respectively arranged adjacent to the other ends of the two second plug-in ports 1251. The two second connection terminals 1253 are respectively connected to the two output terminals 132 of the common mode inductor 13.

[0058] Therefore, the output terminal 122, the fourth capacitor 1232a, the fifth capacitor 1232b, the sixth capacitor 1232c, and the output end 132 of the common mode inductor 13 are all connected to the second circuit board 125, which can improve the connection stability.

[0059] It can be understood that, in other embodiments, the common-mode inductor 13 may include four coils or eight coils wound on a ring-shaped iron core, and therefore, the number of input terminals 131 and output terminals 132 of the common-mode inductor 13 is not limited to two, but may also be four or eight, etc., which is not limited here.

[0060] It should be noted that, for the aforementioned method embodiments, for the sake of simplicity, they are all expressed as a series of action combinations, but those skilled in the art should be aware that the present application is not limited by the described order of actions, because according to the present application, certain steps can be performed in other orders or simultaneously. Secondly, those skilled in the art should also be aware that the embodiments described in the specification are all preferred embodiments, and the actions and modules involved are not necessarily required by the present application.

[0061] The above is an implementation method of the embodiment of the present application. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principles of the embodiment of the present application. These improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the scope of protection of the present application.
