The integrated capacitor assembly 20, the filter inductor 30, the power assembly 40, the connecting copper busbar assembly 50 and the circuit board 60 are all arranged in the housing 10. Compared with the independently arranged boost charging device, the motor controller in the present application integrates the components required for the drive circuit and the boost charging filter circuit of the boost charging device into one housing 10, which is equivalent to integrating the boost charging device into the motor controller used only for driving the motor 200, thereby reducing the space occupied by the boost charging device and thus reducing the manufacturing cost of the entire vehicle.

[0034] It should be noted that the battery structure is connected to the boost charging filter circuit in the motor controller 100. Figure 1 Only the structures of the motor controller 100 and the motor 200 are shown, and the battery structure is not shown.

[0040] Specifically, Figure 4 and Figure 7 As shown, each filter Y capacitor core 22 is provided with a grounding terminal 221 and a grounding screw 222 . The grounding screw 222 is installed on the mounting hole of the grounding terminal 221 to ground the entire integrated capacitor assembly 20 .

[0044] Specifically, Figure 3 and Figure 7 As shown, the power component 40, the negative busbar copper bar 52 and the positive busbar copper bar 53 are all arranged in parallel. Such an arrangement can reduce the space occupied by the power component 40, the negative busbar copper bar 52, the positive busbar copper bar 53 and the integrated capacitor component 20; in order to connect the parallel-arranged power component 40, the negative busbar copper bar 52 and the positive busbar copper bar 53, the connecting copper bar assembly 50 also includes a positive connecting copper bar 56 and a negative connecting copper bar 57.

The setting of the relay connection port 551 facilitates the connection between the boost charging copper bar 55 and the relay assembly 400 through the connector, thereby increasing the connection stability between the boost charging copper bar 55 and the relay assembly 400.

[0046] During specific implementation, the boost charging copper bus 55 is connected to the relay assembly 400, and the on and off of the relay assembly 400 is controlled by a control voltage signal, thereby being able to control the on and off of the entire boost charging filter circuit. When the relay assembly 400 is in the on state, the boost charging filter circuit inside the motor controller 100 is turned on as a whole, and the motor controller 100 can boost charge the battery structure connected thereto; when the relay assembly 400 is in the off state, the boost charging filter circuit inside the motor controller 100 is disconnected, the drive circuit is turned on, and the motor controller 100 can drive the motor 200.

[0047] Specifically, the relay connection port 551 is a screw hole, which facilitates the connection between the boost charging copper busbar 55 and the relay assembly 400 through bolts, and the combination of the bolts and the screw holes facilitates the disassembly between the boost charging copper busbar 55 and the relay assembly 400, and when the relay assembly 400 is damaged, it is easy to replace.

[0051] In a specific implementation, the protruding positive connection terminal 531, the negative connection terminal 521 and the boost charging connection terminal 552 are all extended toward the direction of the input copper busbar 51, which can facilitate the connection of the positive input copper busbar 511, the negative input copper busbar 512 and the boost charging input copper busbar 513 of the input copper busbar 51, and such an arrangement can arrange the positive connection terminal 531, the negative connection terminal 521 and the boost charging connection terminal 552 in the same area, thereby reducing the occupied space, and further reducing the space occupied by the boost charging device as a whole.
