Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the field of optoelectronic technology, and in particular to a power module and a processing method thereof. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of electronic technology and industrial equipment, power modules, as an important part of electronic equipment, undertake the functions of power conversion, distribution and stable output. Their performance directly affects the operating stability and service life of the equipment. At the same time, in order to adapt to the diverse application scenarios, the processing methods of power modules are gradually developing towards automation and high precision to meet the needs of high performance and high reliability.

[0003] At present, the existing power module and its processing method usually provide basic stable power output and component protection effects by integrating module mechanism, heat dissipation mechanism and fixing mechanism. The assembly and packaging of the module can meet the use requirements under general working conditions through traditional processing technology. Its processing method is relatively mature and can achieve high production efficiency and a certain degree of module reliability. It is suitable for application scenarios with low load and relatively stable environment.

[0004] However, the existing technology has many shortcomings when facing complex working conditions and long-term operating conditions. First, the sealing performance of the module is poor. Its sealing design mostly relies on static structural connections, which is difficult to cope with vibration, high humidity and temperature fluctuations in the environment, resulting in the module being susceptible to moisture, dust and other erosion. This will not only affect the normal operation of the circuit, but also accelerate the aging of components, thereby greatly shortening the service life of the module; in addition, the heat dissipation efficiency of the existing power module is insufficient, and it usually relies on a simple passive heat dissipation design. The airflow distribution is uneven, and it is difficult to quickly take away the heat generated during high-load operation. This uneven heat dissipation causes local overheating inside the module, accelerates the aging and performance degradation of key components, and limits the long-term operating reliability of the module and its applicability in high-power scenarios; at the same time, the disassembly and assembly process of the existing module is relatively cumbersome, and its structural design usually does not fully consider the convenience of maintenance and upgrading. Installation and disassembly often require more steps, which increases the complexity of the operation. Especially in industrial scenarios that require frequent maintenance, the complex disassembly and assembly process is easy to cause operators to operate incorrectly or damage the module structure, further reducing the overall reliability and maintenance efficiency of the module. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the deficiencies in the prior art, the present invention provides a power module and a processing method, which solve the problems that the existing power module has insufficient sealing performance under complex working conditions and is easily corroded by moisture and dust, affecting the operating stability; the heat dissipation efficiency is low, and uneven airflow distribution leads to local overheating, which accelerates the aging of components.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions: a power module, comprising: The module structure is used to provide stable power, complete power conversion and distribution, and support load operation; A sealing mechanism, which is arranged in the middle of the module mechanism and is used to provide secondary sealing for the module mechanism, and prevent the outside from affecting the inside of the module mechanism by dynamic extrusion; A cooling mechanism, which is arranged on the top of the module mechanism and is used to form a uniform airflow inside the module mechanism to reduce the heat of the module mechanism when in use; The connecting mechanism is arranged on the top of the module mechanism and is used to provide a simple operation for the assembly and disassembly between the cooling mechanism and the module mechanism.

[0007] Preferably, the module mechanism comprises a shell, a PCB board is installed inside the shell, a pin is fixedly connected to the bottom of the PCB board, the pin runs through the middle of the shell, and a cover plate is installed on the upper side of the shell.

[0008] Preferably, the sealing mechanism includes a compression spring, which is fixedly connected to the inside of the shell, and the other end of the compression spring is fixedly connected to a sealing block. A sealing groove is formed on one side of the cover plate close to the shell, and the sealing block and the sealing groove are plug-fitted.

[0009] Preferably, the cooling mechanism includes a shell, which is arranged in the middle of the cover plate, and a support block is fixedly connected to the inside of the shell, and a motor is fixedly connected to the other side of the support block, and a fan blade is fixedly connected to the output end of the motor, and a diverter plate is fixedly installed on the side of the shell close to the cover plate.

[0010] Preferably, the connecting mechanism includes an installation component and a disassembly component, both of which are arranged on the top of the cover plate, wherein the installation component includes a fixed block, the fixed block is fixedly connected to the top of the cover plate, a slot is provided in the middle of the fixed block, a return spring is fixedly connected to the inside of the shell, the other end of the return spring is fixedly connected to a block, and the block and the slot are plugged into each other.

[0011] Preferably, the disassembly assembly includes a rotating rod, which is rotatably connected to the middle part of the casing, and one end of the rotating rod close to the casing is fixedly connected to a wire wheel, and a pull rope is fixedly connected to the outer side of the wire wheel, and the other end of the pull rope is fixedly connected to a side of the block close to the return spring.

[0012] Preferably, one end of the rotating rod away from the casing is fixedly connected to a handle, and an anti-slip groove is provided on the outer side of the handle.

[0014] Preferably, a connecting rod is fixedly connected to the upper side of the cover plate, and the fixing block is fixedly connected to an end of the connecting rod away from the cover plate.

[0015] The present invention also provides a method for processing a power module, comprising the following steps: Step 1: Weld the PCB board into a semi-finished product, clean the semi-finished PCB board, and remove any contamination from the surface. After it is dry, put the PCB board into the housing and let the pins pass through the housing. After installation, use a glue gun to wrap the PCB board with colloid and place it at room temperature for curing. After curing, install the cover plate.

The operation is simple and reliable, which reduces the risk of human error operation, facilitates the maintenance and function upgrade of the module, and enhances the stability of the overall structure and long-term working performance.
