Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of electric driving, and in particular to a dual-driving device for new energy vehicles. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicle technology, the market share of electric vehicles has also increased year by year. It is not difficult to find that in addition to the traditional single-motor electric drive solution, the dual-motor powertrain solution is also widely recognized by the market, especially in high-performance models. The dual-motor four-wheel drive solution has become the entry-level configuration of high-end models.

[0003] The dual-motor solution is matched with a dual-motor controller. In the early solutions, two independent drive motor controllers are usually set up in the vehicle to realize the drive and control of the dual motors. With the iteration and update of technology, a variety of two-in-one dual-motor controllers have gradually appeared in the market. The power devices and drive control units of the two controllers are integrated in one controller box, which realizes the drive and control functions of the two motors by one controller from a physical level. However, the existing integration solutions of dual-motor controllers are basically evolved from the traditional single-motor structural solution. By setting up a larger box, the number of IGBTs, thin-film capacitors, filters and drive control circuit boards of the traditional single-motor controller is doubled, and fixed in the box, and the power devices are electrically connected through Busbar busbars or wiring harnesses. Judging from the appearance of the controller assembly alone, this structural layout scheme has a high-voltage bus input and two sets of three-phase AC outputs, which does realize the integration of dual electric controls. However, its essence is still the physical stacking of two traditional single-motor controllers. There are still two single-motor controllers inside, but they share a housing, and there are still gaps between the components of the two sets of electric controls. Although it can reduce the number of controller assemblies in the whole vehicle and reduce the difficulty of vehicle assembly, it does not promote the technical advancement of the dual-motor controller integration solution, and it results in a single dual-electric control assembly that is bulky and heavy, which is not conducive to the miniaturization and space design of the host vehicle. Summary of the invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a dual-drive device for new energy vehicles, which adopts an upper and lower layer of inverter cavity, places an energy consumption compensation device through a through rectangular window, and connects the integrated circuit board and the inverter device on both sides based on the energy consumption compensation device.

[0034] An upper and lower layer inverter cavity is adopted, and the energy consumption compensation device 4 is placed through a through rectangular window 101, and the integrated circuit board and the inverter device on both sides are connected based on the energy consumption compensation device 4. Such a design can realize the inverter device and the integrated circuit board to be universal in the two layers of the inverter cavity, with strong adaptability, thereby realizing a simple controller structure and avoiding the large size deficiency of the prior art tiling solution.

[0035] An upper water tank 104 and a lower water tank 105 are respectively disposed on both sides of the partition. The upper water tank 104 is located on the side facing the first inverter chamber 102, and the lower water tank 105 is located on the side facing the second inverter chamber 103.

By using copper cladding on the PCBA to replace the busbar copper bar, the choke shielding device, the energy loss compensation device, and the inverter device are electrically connected, and the Hall detector is soldered on the integrated circuit board, thereby achieving a high degree of integration of the internal parts of the controller and reducing the number of internal parts of the controller. The first integrated circuit board 8 and the second integrated circuit board 9 are multi-layer printed circuit boards, which contain a large copper cladding layer inside, which serves as an energy transmission medium for the high-voltage network and replaces the transfer copper bar in the conventional controller. The pin-type Hall detector 801 and the current-carrying terminal 802 are integrated on the integrated circuit board, and a plurality of pinholes are provided around the Hall detector on the integrated circuit board for welding the pins of the inverter device.

[0043] like Figure 5As shown, the choke shielding device 5 includes a bracket 501 and a choke filter circuit board 502. The choke filter circuit board 502 is epoxy-encapsulated in the bracket 501.

The first cover plate 6 and the second cover plate 7 are bilaterally symmetrical structures, and can be used as two at the same time, fixed on the first inverter cavity and the second inverter cavity, so as to achieve the sealing of the mounting housing 1.

[0046] The assembly process of this embodiment is as follows:

[0047] First, the inverter device and the energy consumption compensation device 4 are installed.

[0048] The upper water tank 104 and the lower water tank 105 in the installation shell are friction welded with the first cover plate 6 and the second cover plate 7 to achieve the sealing of the cooling water tank. Next, apply thermal conductive silicone grease to the bottom of the first inverter device and the second inverter device 3, and fix the first inverter device and the second inverter device 3 to the upper water tank 104 of the first inverter chamber 102 and the lower water tank 105 of the second inverter chamber 103 by bolts. Then put the energy consumption compensation device 4 into the rectangular window 101 position in the first inverter chamber 102, and fix it to the rectangular window 101 by the installation feet of the energy consumption compensation device 4.

[0049] Next, the choke shield device 5 is assembled.

[0050] like Figure 5 As shown, two inductors 525 are soldered on the choke filter circuit board 502, and then the safety capacitors 522 are respectively soldered and fixed according to the positions in the figure, and then the input copper bar 521 and the output copper bar 523 are soldered to the choke filter circuit board 502 to form a choke filter circuit board 502. Finally, the choke filter circuit board 502 is fixed to the bracket 501, and the choke filter circuit board 502 is potted and cured by epoxy.

[0051] Then, the choke shield device 5 and the integrated circuit board are mounted.

[0052] The choke shielding device 4 is fixed to the side of the upper water tank 104 of the first inverter chamber 102 of the mounting housing 1 by bolts. Then the first integrated circuit board 8 is covered to the first inverter device, the energy loss compensation device 4 and the choke shielding device 5 of the first inverter chamber 102, and the pins of the first inverter device are electrically connected to the first integrated circuit board 8 by soldering, the first compensation terminal 402 of the energy loss compensation device 4 is electrically connected to the first integrated circuit board 8 by bolts, and the output copper bus 523 of the choke shielding device 5 is electrically connected to the first integrated circuit board 8 by bolts.

[0056] At this point, the overall assembly is completed. Later, water channels are connected at the water inlet 107 and the water outlet 108, and the DC bus is connected to the input copper bar 521 of the choke shielding device 5, and the current-carrying terminals on the integrated circuit boards of the first inverter cavity 102 and the second inverter cavity 103 are connected to the three-phase windings of the motor.
