It should also be noted that the aforementioned Z-axis designation is intended solely for the purpose of facilitating and simplifying the description of the present invention, and does not indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed, or operate in a specific orientation. Therefore, it should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0028] like Figure 1-Figure 5 As shown, a motor busbar of an embodiment of the present invention is used to be installed at one end of the stator core 4 of the motor and to be connected to the stator winding 5 of the motor, including a busbar body 1 and a temperature detection device fixing structure 2. The temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is arranged at one end of the busbar body 1 close to the stator core 4, and the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 and the busbar body 1 are an integrated structure. The temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is provided with an installation groove 21 on a side facing the corresponding coil 51 of the stator winding 5. The installation groove 21 is used to install the temperature detection device 6, and the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is used to press the temperature detection device 6 onto the corresponding coil 51.
[0029] Specifically, taking the stator core 4 as an example, with its central axis along the Z-axis, the motor busbar is typically located above or below the stator core 4. For ease of description, the following description uses the motor busbar located above the stator core 4 as an example. The stator winding 5 includes a plurality of coils 51 connected in sequence. Each coil 51 is located within a corresponding stator slot of the stator core 4. The leads of the coils 51 extend upward out of the slots, and the motor busbar is used to connect to the leads of the coils 51. A temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is provided at one end of the busbar body 1, proximal to the stator core 4, i.e., at the lower end of the busbar body 1. The temperature detection device fixing structure 2 can extend generally along the Z-axis. The busbar body 1 generally has a circular ring or arc-shaped structure surrounding the coils 51 of the stator winding 5. A mounting groove 21 is provided on the side of the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 facing the corresponding coil 51 of the stator winding 5, i.e., on the side of the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 facing the central axis of the stator winding 5.
[0030] Since the pins of the coil 51 are arranged vertically upward, the installation groove 21 can extend vertically so that the temperature detection device 6 in the installation groove 21 can contact the pins of the coil 51 over a larger area through the groove, and the side of the temperature detection device 6 facing away from the coil 51 can contact the bottom of the groove.
[0031] In this embodiment, a temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is provided at one end of the busbar body 1 close to the stator core 4, that is, the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is closer to the coil 51 of the stator winding 5, which is conducive to the temperature detection device 6 assembled on the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 to be able to make large-area contact with the coil 51; the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is provided with a mounting groove 21 on one side corresponding to the coil 51 of the stator winding 5, and the mounting groove 21 can accommodate and install the temperature detection device 6 to ensure the assembly stability and reliability of the temperature detection device 6, and when the temperature detection device 6 is installed in the mounting groove 21, the temperature detection device 6 can pass through the groove of the mounting groove 21. The opening contacts the corresponding coil 51 of the stator winding 5, and then when the bus body 1 is installed on the stator winding 5, the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 can be used to press the temperature detection device 6 onto the corresponding coil 51 of the stator winding 5, that is, the fixed installation of the temperature detection device 6 is realized, which is convenient for using the temperature detection device 6 to detect the temperature of the stator winding 5 in real time; moreover, compared with fixing the temperature detection device 6 to the coil 51 of the stator winding 5 with an additional fixing part, designing the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 and the bus body 1 as an integrated structure can reduce the number of parts, reduce the installation cost of the temperature detection device 6, and improve the fixing reliability of the temperature detection device 6.
[0032] like Figure 3-Figure 5 As shown, optionally, a through hole 11 communicating with the mounting groove 21 is provided on the busbar body 1 , and the through hole 11 extends in the same direction as the mounting groove 21 , for the temperature detection device 6 to pass through.
[0033] Specifically, the busbar body 1 is provided with a through hole 11 penetrating along the Z direction, the mounting groove 21 extends along the Z direction, and the lower end of the through hole 11 is communicated with the upper end of the mounting groove 21 .
[0034] In this embodiment, the temperature detection device 6 can pass through the through hole 11 from top to bottom to be inserted into the installation groove 21, thereby realizing quick installation of the temperature detection device 6 and reducing manual installation costs.
[0035] like Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the mounting groove 21 is used to accommodate the heat-sensing component 61 of the temperature detection device 6, and the groove wall of the mounting groove 21 at one end away from the through hole 11 is used to abut against one end of the heat-sensing component 61, and the end of the mounting groove 21 close to the through hole 11 is provided with a limiting protrusion 211, and the limiting protrusion 211 is used to abut against the other end of the heat-sensing component 61.
[0036] Specifically, the temperature detection device 6 can be a temperature sensor, including a heat-sensitive element 61 and a lead 62. The heat-sensitive element 61 can be connected to a display device via the lead 62 to display the measurement results in real time. The mounting groove 21 can be a rectangular groove that matches the shape of the heat-sensitive element 61. When the heat-sensitive element 61 is placed in the mounting groove 21, the lead 62 can extend upward from the through hole 11. A limiting protrusion 211 is provided at the upper end of the bottom of the mounting groove 21. The limiting protrusion 211 can undergo extrusion deformation. Two limiting protrusions 211 can be provided, and the two limiting protrusions 211 are spaced apart along the width direction of the mounting groove 21.
[0037] In this embodiment, during the process of inserting the heat-sensing component 61 of the temperature detection device 6 into the installation groove 21 through the through hole 11, the limiting protrusion 211 will be squeezed until the lower end of the heat-sensing component 61 abuts against the lower wall of the installation groove 21. At this time, the temperature detection device 6 is installed in place, the limiting protrusion 211 recovers its deformation and bounces up, and the upper end of the heat-sensing component 61 abuts against the limiting protrusion 211. The limiting protrusion 211 and the lower wall of the installation groove 21 are respectively abutted against the vertical ends of the heat-sensing component 61 to achieve installation limitation of the heat-sensing component 61, thereby preventing the temperature detection device 6 from vertically detaching from the temperature detection device fixing structure 2.
[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, optionally, the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is arranged near the circumferential outer edge of the bus body 1, and the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is used to be located on the outside of the outermost coil 51 of the stator winding 5, and the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is provided with the mounting groove 21 on the side facing the outermost coil 51.
[0039] Specifically, the motor bus or bus body 1 can be annular or arc-shaped, and is coaxially arranged with the stator core 4 and the coil 51 of the stator winding 5. The temperature detection device fixing structure 2 is arranged near the circumferential outer edge of the bus body 1, so that after the bus body 1 is connected to the stator winding 5, the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 can be located outside the stator winding 5, that is, outside the outermost coil 51 of the stator winding 5. By providing a mounting groove 21 on the side of the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 facing the outermost coil 51, that is, the side of the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 facing the central axis of the stator core 4, the temperature detection device 6 in the mounting groove 21 is brought into contact with the outermost coil 51, thereby achieving real-time measurement of the temperature of the coil 51.
[0040] It should be noted that the coils 51 are arranged in multiple layers from the inside to the outside along the radial direction of the stator core 4. The distance between each layer of coils 51 is small, and it is difficult to arrange the temperature detection device 6. Therefore, by setting the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 on the circumferential outer edge of the bus body 1, the temperature detection device 6 can be fixed to the outermost layer of coils 51, and the installation of the temperature detection device 6 is easier.
[0041] like Figure 4-Figure 5 As shown, optionally, the motor busbar further includes a spring piece 3 , and the spring piece 3 is placed in the mounting groove 21 .
[0042] Specifically, the spring piece 3 can be of any shape and can be elastically deformed. By placing the spring piece 3 within the mounting slot 21, when the temperature detection device 6 is installed within the mounting slot 21, the temperature detection device 6 will press the spring piece 3. The spring piece 3 applies an elastic force to the temperature detection device 6, thereby pressing the temperature detection device 6 against the coil 51, thereby ensuring the installation reliability of the temperature detection device 6.
[0043] like Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, optionally, the elastic piece 3 includes an elastic piece body 31 , and the elastic piece body 31 protrudes toward the slot opening close to the mounting slot 21 to form an elastic protrusion 311 .
[0044] Specifically, the spring body 31 protrudes toward the slot near the mounting slot 21 to form an arc-shaped elastic protrusion 311. The elastic protrusion 311 can contact the temperature detection device 6. The elastic protrusion 311 makes the force and deformation of the spring body 31 more uniform and the durability better; taking the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 located on the outside of the outermost coil 51 as an example, when the temperature detection device 6 is placed in the mounting slot 21, the temperature detection device 6 applies an extrusion force radially outward along the stator core 4 to the spring body 31 to deform the spring body 31, and the spring body 31 applies an extrusion force radially inward along the stator core 4 to the temperature detection device 6 to ensure that the temperature detection device 6 is in close contact with the coil 51.
[0045] The spring body 31 can be a strip extending in a wave shape and is generally arranged vertically. A plurality of elastic protrusions 311 can be arranged at intervals along the extension direction of the spring body 31. The force applied to the temperature detection device 6 is more uniform and the installation is more reliable.
[0046] like Figure 5-Figure 6 As shown, optionally, the elastic piece 3 further includes a connecting piece 32 , one end of the connecting piece 32 is connected to the elastic protrusion 311 , and the other end of the connecting piece 32 is inclined toward the notch close to the mounting slot 21 .
[0047] Specifically, the connecting piece 32 may be a strip-shaped structure with a relatively short length. The connecting piece 32 may be formed by stamping the elastic piece 3 . A process hole is formed on the elastic protrusion 311 at a position corresponding to the connecting piece 32 .
[0048] In this embodiment, when the temperature detection device 6 is installed in the installation groove 21, the connecting piece 32 and the elastic protrusion 311 will be squeezed in sequence, that is, the connecting piece 32 and the elastic protrusion 311 of the spring piece 3 can respectively apply elastic extrusion force to the temperature detection device 6 to ensure that the temperature detection device 6 is tightly attached to the coil 51, so that the installation of the temperature detection device 6 is more stable.
[0049] Optionally, the spring piece 3 , the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 and the busbar body 1 are integrally injection molded.
[0050] In this embodiment, the shrapnel 3 can be a metal shrapnel, which is processed in advance. Thereafter, the shrapnel 3 is placed in an injection mold, and molten plastic is poured. After solidification, the plastic part forms the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 and the bus body 1, thereby realizing the one-piece injection molding of the shrapnel 3, the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 and the bus body 1. The processing is simple, and the installation stability of the temperature detection device fixing structure 2 and the shrapnel 3 is good, which is conducive to ensuring the installation reliability of the temperature detection device 6.
[0051] Yet another embodiment of the present invention provides a motor assembly comprising a stator core 4, a stator winding 5, a temperature detection device 6, and the aforementioned motor busbar. The motor busbar is disposed at one end of the stator core 4 and connected to the stator winding 5. The temperature detection device 6 is disposed within a mounting slot 21 of a temperature detection device fixing structure 2 of the motor busbar. The temperature detection device fixing structure 2 presses the temperature detection device 6 against a corresponding coil 51 of the stator winding 5. The advantages of this motor assembly over the prior art are the same as those of the aforementioned motor busbar and will not be repeated.
[0052] Another embodiment of the present invention provides a vehicle including the above-mentioned motor assembly. The advantages of the vehicle compared to the prior art are the same as those of the above-mentioned motor assembly, and are not described again.
[0053] Although the present invention is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Those skilled in the art may make various changes and modifications without departing from the spirit and scope of the present invention, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
