DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0081] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0082] The embodiment of the present application provides an electronic device 20 a. The electronic device 20 a may be a capacitor module 20 or a power module 30 in a controller 100 .
[0083] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 , the electronic device 20a includes a first connection terminal 211a and a second connection terminal 221b.
[0084] The second connection terminal 221b has opposite polarity to the first connection terminal 211a and is spaced apart from the first connection terminal 211a. In a projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the second connection terminal 221b, the projection of the first connection terminal 211a falls within the projection of the second connection terminal 221b.
[0085] It can be understood that the second connection terminal 221b and the first connection terminal 211a are arranged at intervals along the thickness direction of the second connection terminal 221b, and along the thickness direction of the second connection terminal 221b, the second connection terminal 221b overlaps with the first connection terminal 211a, and the second connection terminal 221b and the first connection terminal 211a are arranged in a stacked manner. Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first connection terminal 211a is disposed above the second connection terminal 221b.
[0086] Since the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b have opposite polarities, after the electronic device 20a is powered on, the current directions of the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b are opposite, and the magnetic field direction around the first connection terminal 211a is opposite to the magnetic field direction around the second connection terminal 221b. Figure 3 Typically, the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b are arranged side by side along the length direction of the first connection terminal 211a, and the center distance between the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b is far. After the electronic device 20a is powered on, the magnetic field around the first connection terminal 211a and the magnetic field around the second connection terminal 221b overlap at a position (position E in the figure) with the same magnetic field direction, resulting in magnetic field superposition, which in turn leads to an increase in stray inductance.
[0087] In the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b so that, in a projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the second connection terminal 221b, the projection of the first connection terminal 211a falls within the projection of the second connection terminal 221b, compared with arranging the two side by side along the length or width of the connection terminals, the center of the first connection terminal 211a and the center of the second connection terminal 221b can be closer, so that during the power-on process, the overlapping part ( Figure 4 The magnetic fields at the middle F position) are in opposite directions and partially cancel each other out, which helps to reduce stray inductance and improve the operating stability of the electronic device 20a.
[0088] In some embodiments, the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b are arranged side by side along their thickness direction (Z direction in the figure), and the first connection terminal 211a is parallel to the second connection terminal 221b. It can be understood that the thickness direction of the first connection terminal 211a (Z direction in the figure) is parallel to the thickness direction of the second connection terminal 221b. Such arrangement makes the center of the first connection terminal 211a and the center of the second connection terminal 221b closer, so that the magnetic field around the first connection terminal 211a and the magnetic field around the second connection terminal 221b can offset each other to a large extent, which helps to reduce the stray inductance to a large extent.
[0089] In some embodiments, the length of the first connection terminal 211 a is the same as the length of the second connection terminal 221 b , which helps the first connection terminal 211 a and the second connection terminal 221 b to be aligned in the length direction.
[0090] In some embodiments, the width of the first connection terminal 211a is smaller than the width of the second connection terminal 221b. Along the width direction of the first connection terminal 211a (the X direction in the figure), the free end of the second connection terminal 221b extends out of the free end of the first connection terminal 211a. This arrangement facilitates the connection of the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b with other electrical connectors, reducing the difficulty of assembling the electronic device 20a with other components.
[0091] For example, Figure 1 As shown, along the length direction (Y direction in the figure) of the first electrical connector 60, the free end of the first connection terminal 211a is aligned with the free end of the second connection terminal 221b. Along the width direction of the first connection terminal 211a, the free end of the second connection terminal 221b extends out of the free end of the first connection terminal 211a, so that the free end of the first connection terminal 211a and the free end of the second connection terminal 221b are misaligned.
[0092] In some embodiments, the electronic device 20a further includes an insulating member 40a.
[0093] The insulating member 40a is at least partially disposed between the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b to reduce the risk of a short circuit between the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b.
[0094] In some embodiments, along the thickness direction of the insulating member 40a (Z direction in the figure), the insulating member 40a has a first surface and a second surface that are arranged opposite to each other. The first surface is in contact with the first connection terminal 211a, and the second surface is in contact with the second connection terminal 221b. In this way, the distance between the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b is further reduced, so that the center of the first connection terminal 211a and the center of the second connection terminal 221b are closer, which helps to further cancel out the magnetic field around the first connection terminal 211a and the magnetic field around the second connection terminal 221b, thereby reducing stray inductance.
[0095] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, along the length direction of the insulating member 40a (Y direction in the figure), the length of the insulating member 40a is greater than the length of the first connecting terminal 211a, and the free end of the insulating member 40a extends out of the free end of the first connecting terminal 211a, which helps to improve the insulation reliability between the first connecting terminal 211a and the second connecting terminal 221b.
[0096] In other embodiments, along the length direction of the insulating member 40a, the length of the insulating member 40a may be equal to the length of the first connection terminal 211a, and the free end of the insulating member 40a is flush with the end of the first connection terminal 211a to reduce the length of the insulating member 40a.
[0097] In some embodiments, the width of the insulating member 40a is greater than the width of the first connecting terminal 211a, and along the width direction of the insulating member 40a (X direction in the figure), the free end of the insulating member 40a extends out of the free end of the first connecting terminal 211a, which helps to improve the insulation reliability between the first connecting terminal 211a and the second connecting terminal 221b.
[0098] In some embodiments, the insulating member 40a includes a first insulating portion 41 and a second insulating portion 42, the first insulating portion 41 is disposed between the first connecting terminal 211a and the second connecting terminal 221b, and the second insulating portion 42 is protruded on the side of the first insulating portion 41 facing the first connecting terminal 211a and is located on the outer side of the first connecting terminal 211a.
[0099] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the first insulating portion 41 is arranged horizontally, the second insulating portion 42 stands vertically along the thickness direction of the insulating member 40a, and the second insulating portion 42 is located outside the first connecting terminal 211a.
[0100] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing the second insulating portion 42, the creepage distance between the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b is increased, which helps to reduce the safety hazard caused by arcing between the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b under high voltage.
[0101] In some embodiments, the second insulating portion 42 protrudes from a side of the first connection terminal 211a away from the second connection terminal 221b, which further increases the creepage distance between the first connection terminal 211a and the second connection terminal 221b.
[0102] It can be understood that along the thickness direction of the first connection terminal 211 a , the second insulating portion 42 is higher than the first connection terminal 211 a .
[0103] Reference Figure 1 In some embodiments, the electronic device 20a is a capacitor module 20, the first connection terminal 211a is a first output terminal 211 of the capacitor module 20, and the second connection terminal 221b is a second output terminal 221 of the capacitor module 20. The first output terminal 211 can be used to electrically couple with the first input terminal 31 of the power module 30, and the second output terminal 221 can be used to electrically couple with the second input terminal 32 of the power module 30.
[0104] In some embodiments, the insulating member 40 a is provided with a first positioning portion 43 , and the first positioning portion 43 is configured to position the first output terminal 211 to reduce the risk of unstable electrical connection caused by displacement of the first output terminal 211 .

[0106] In other embodiments, the first positioning portion 43 may be a latching protrusion disposed on the edge of the insulating member 40 a , and the insulating member 40 a is latched to the edge of the first output end 211 through the first positioning portion 43 to position the first output end 211 .
[0107] In some embodiments, the insulating member 40 a is provided with a second positioning portion 44 , and the second positioning portion 44 is configured to position the second output terminal 221 to reduce the risk of unstable electrical connection caused by displacement of the second output terminal 221 .
[0108] In some embodiments, the second positioning portion 44 is a protrusion protruding from the insulating member 40 a , and the second connecting terminal 221 b is provided with a matching hole corresponding to the second positioning portion 44 , and the second positioning portion 44 is limited in the matching hole.
[0109] In other embodiments, the second positioning portion 44 may be a latching protrusion disposed on the edge of the insulating member 40 a , and the insulating member 40 a is latched to the edge of the second output end 221 through the second positioning portion 44 to position the second output end 221 .
[0110] The structures of the first positioning portion 43 and the second positioning portion 44 may be the same, or may be different as required.
[0111] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the electronic device 20a is a power module 30, the first connection terminal 211a is a first input terminal 31 of the power module 30, and the second connection terminal 221b is a second input terminal 32 of the power module 30. The first input terminal 31 can be used to electrically couple with the first output terminal 211 of the capacitor module 20, and the second input terminal 32 can be used to electrically couple with the second output terminal 221 of the capacitor module 20.
[0112] In some embodiments, a plurality of first input terminals 31 are provided, and the plurality of first input terminals 31 are spaced apart along the length direction thereof, a plurality of second input terminals 32 are provided, and the plurality of second input terminals 32 are spaced apart along the length direction thereof, and each first input terminal 31 corresponds to each second input terminal 32. It can be understood that the first input terminals 31 correspond to the second input terminals 32 one by one.
[0113] For example, Figure 2 As shown, three first input terminals 31 and three second input terminals 32 are provided.
[0114] In some embodiments, the insulating member 40 a is partially located between two adjacent first input terminals 31 and / or between two adjacent second input terminals 32 to insulate the two connected first input terminals 31 and / or the two connected second input terminals 32 , which helps the power module 30 to operate stably.
[0115] According to a second aspect of the present application, a controller 100 is provided, which is applicable to a motor controller 100, a photovoltaic controller 100, an energy storage controller 100, etc. The controller 100 includes the above-mentioned electronic device 20a.
[0116] Reference Figures 5 to 23 In some embodiments, the controller 100 includes a capacitor module 20 and a power module 30, and at least one of the capacitor module 20 and the power module 30 is the above-mentioned electronic device 20a.
[0117] Reference Fig.17 and Fig.18In some embodiments, the capacitor module 20 includes a capacitor core group 23, a first busbar 21, and a second busbar 22. The capacitor core group 23 includes a plurality of cores, and the plurality of cores are arranged along the thickness direction of the core (the Y direction in the figure). The first busbar 21 is arranged above the capacitor core group 23, and the second busbar 22 is arranged below the capacitor core group 23.
[0118] The first busbar 21 has opposite polarity to the second busbar 22. In some embodiments, the first busbar 21 may be a negative busbar, and the second busbar 22 may be a positive busbar.
[0119] Specifically, the first busbar 21 has a negative power input terminal 212 and a negative output terminal, and the second busbar 22 has a positive power input terminal 222 and a positive output terminal. The negative output terminal and the positive output terminal are arranged on one side of the width direction (X direction in the figure) of the capacitor core group 23, and the negative power input terminal 212 and the positive power input terminal 222 are located on the other side of the width direction of the capacitor core group 23.
[0120] In some embodiments, the power supply negative input terminal 212 and the positive input terminal 222 are located on the side of the capacitor core group 23. The power supply positive and negative input terminals and the positive and negative output terminals can be arranged horizontally.
[0121] In some embodiments, reference Fig.19 The power module 30 includes a three-phase output terminal 33. Correspondingly, the capacitor module 20 has three input terminals, each of which includes a first input terminal 31 and a second input terminal 32 with opposite polarities.
[0122] In some embodiments, the capacitor module 20 includes a first output terminal 211 and a second output terminal 221, the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 have opposite polarities, and the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 are spaced apart. The power module 30 includes a first input terminal 31 and a second input terminal 32, the first input terminal 31 and the second input terminal 32 have opposite polarities, the first input terminal 31 is electrically coupled to the first output terminal 211, the second input terminal 32 is electrically coupled to the second output terminal 221, and the first input terminal 31 and the second input terminal 32 are spaced apart.
[0123] Among them, in the projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction (Z direction in the figure) of the first output end 211, the projection of the first output end 211 falls within the projection of the second output end 221, and the projection of the first input end 31 falls within the projection plane of the second input end 32.
[0124] In some embodiments, the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 may be parallel, and the first input terminal 31 and the second input terminal 32 may be parallel.
[0125] Exemplarily, the first output end 211 and the second output end 221 are spaced apart in the thickness direction thereof, the first output end 211 and the second output end 221 are parallel to each other, and the first output end 211 can be disposed above the second output end 221. The first input end 31 and the second input end 32 are spaced apart in the thickness direction thereof, the first input end 31 and the second input end 32 are parallel to each other, and the first input end 31 can be disposed above the second input end 32.
[0126] In some embodiments, the first output terminal 211 is the negative output terminal of the first busbar 21, the second output terminal 221 is the positive output terminal of the second busbar 22, the first input terminal 31 is the negative input terminal corresponding to the first output terminal 211, and the second input terminal 32 is the positive input terminal corresponding to the second output terminal 221.
[0127] It is defined that the first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31 are electrically coupled to form a first current path, and the second output terminal 221 and the second input terminal 32 are electrically coupled to form a second current path. Since the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 have opposite polarities, the first current path and the second current path are opposite, and the direction of the magnetic field around the first current path is opposite to the direction of the magnetic field around the second current path.
[0128] In the embodiment of the present application, by arranging the relative positions of the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 and the relative positions of the first input terminal 31 and the second input terminal 32 so that, in a projection plane perpendicular to the thickness direction of the first output terminal 211, the projection of the first input terminal 31 falls within the projection of the second input terminal 32, and the projection of the first output terminal 211 falls within the projection of the second output terminal 221, compared to arranging the two side by side along the length of the connecting terminal, the center of the first output terminal 211 and the center of the second output terminal 221 can be closer, and the center of the first input terminal 31 and the center of the second input terminal 32 can be closer. As a result, the first current path and the second current path are closer, so that during the power-on process, the overlapping parts of the magnetic field around the first current path and the magnetic field around the second current path cancel each other out due to the opposite directions of the magnetic fields, which helps to reduce stray inductance and improve the stability of the operation of the controller 100.
[0129] In some embodiments, reference Fig.13 The controller 100 further includes a first insulating member 40 , which is at least partially disposed between the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 to insulate the first output terminal 211 from the second output terminal 221 , which helps to improve the insulation reliability between the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 .
[0130] In some embodiments, reference Fig.13The controller 100 further includes a second insulating member 50 , which is at least partially disposed between the first input terminal 31 and the second input terminal 32 to insulate the first input terminal 31 from the second input terminal 32 , which helps to improve the insulation reliability between the first input terminal 31 and the second input terminal 32 .
[0131] Reference Figures 12 to 16 In some embodiments, the controller 100 further includes a first electrical connector 60 , one end of the first electrical connector 60 is connected to the first output terminal 211 , and the other end is connected to the first input terminal 31 . It can be understood that the first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31 are electrically coupled through the first electrical connector 60 .
[0132] Reference Figures 12 to 16 In some embodiments, the controller 100 further includes a second electrical connector 70, one end of the second electrical connector 70 is connected to the second output terminal 221, and the other end is connected to the second input terminal 32. The second output terminal 221 is electrically coupled to the second input terminal 32 through the second electrical connector 70.
[0133] It can be understood that the first electrical connector 60 and the second electrical connector 70 are conductive members, the first electrical connector 60 is a bridge between the first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31 , and the second electrical connector 70 is a bridge between the second output terminal 221 and the second input terminal 32 .
[0134] Usually, the two output ends of the capacitor module 20 and the two input ends of the power module 30 are connected by nuts, and the output ends are stacked on top of the input ends. This connection method requires the power module 30 to be assembled into the controller 100 first, and the capacitor module 20 to be assembled into the controller 100 later. In the case where the capacitor module 20 is integrated with other components of the controller 100, if the capacitor module 20 is installed first, it will make it difficult to assemble the power module 30 with the capacitor module 20. If the power module 30 is assembled into the controller 100 first, and then the controller 100 is integrated with other components, the power module 30 will be damaged due to transportation during the integrated production process, which will further reduce the performance of the power module 30.
[0135] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing the first electrical connector 60 and the second electrical connector 70, the two output ends of the capacitor module 20 and the two input ends of the power module 30 are not in direct contact. As a result, the assembly order of the capacitor module 20 and the power module 30 is not restricted by each other, and the two are assembled independently, which helps to improve the assembly flexibility of the power module 30 and the capacitor module 20.
[0136] In some embodiments, reference Fig.13 and Fig.16The controller 100 further includes a third insulating member 76 , which is disposed between the first electrical connector 60 and the second electrical connector 70 to insulate the first connector from the second electrical connector 70 .
[0137] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing the third insulating member 76, not only the risk of short circuit between the first electrical connector 60 and the second electrical connector 70 is reduced, but also the first electrical connector 60 and the second electrical connector 70 can be closer, thereby allowing the first current path and the second circuit path to be closer, thereby helping the magnetic field around the first current path and the magnetic field around the second current path to offset each other to a large extent.
[0138] To further improve insulation reliability, in some embodiments, an insulating layer may be provided on a side of the first electrical connector 60 facing the second electrical connector 70 , and an insulating layer may be provided on a side of the second electrical connector 70 facing the first electrical connector 60 .
[0139] In some embodiments, the first electrical connector 60 may be wrapped with an insulating material, wherein the insulating material covers the surface of the first electrical connector 60 outside the contact area with the first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31. The second electrical connector 70 may also be wrapped with an insulating material, wherein the insulating material covers the surface of the second electrical connector 70 outside the contact area with the second output terminal 221 and the second input terminal 32.
[0140] In some embodiments, the first electrical connector 60 is welded to the first output terminal 211 and / or the first input terminal 31 .
[0141] In some embodiments, the second electrical connector 70 is welded to the second output terminal 221 and / or the second input terminal 32 .
[0142] In other embodiments, the above welding may also be replaced by riveting, crimping, etc.
[0143] Usually, the output end of the capacitor module 20 is connected to the input end of the power module 30 through a nut. In this connection mode, the nut is easy to loosen, resulting in poor contact, and then causing arcing, breakage and other problems, and at the same time causing an increase in stray inductance.
[0144] In the embodiment of the present application, by welding the first electrical connector 60 to the first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31, and welding the second electrical connector 70 to the second input terminal 32 and the second output terminal 221, the first electrical connector 60 is stably connected to the first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31, and the second electrical connector 70 is stably connected to the second input terminal 32 and the second output terminal 221, which helps to alleviate the problems of arcing, breakage and increased stray inductance caused by the nut connection, thereby improving the operating stability of the controller 100.
[0145] In some embodiments, the first output terminal 211 is disposed above the second output terminal 221, the width of the second output terminal 221 is greater than the width of the first output terminal 211, and along the width direction of the second output terminal 221 (X direction in the figure), the free end of the second output terminal 221 extends out of the free end of the first output terminal 211, so that the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 are staggered in a stepped manner. The first input terminal 31 is disposed above the second input terminal 32, the width of the second input terminal 32 is greater than the width of the first input terminal 31, and along the width direction of the second input terminal 32, the free end of the second input terminal 32 extends out of the free end of the first input terminal 31, so that the first input terminal 31 and the second input terminal 32 are staggered in a stepped manner. The first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31 are respectively welded to the first electrical connector 60.
[0146] The second output terminal 221 and the second input terminal 32 are respectively welded to the second electrical connection member 70 .
[0147] In the embodiment of the present application, by extending the free end of the second output terminal 221 beyond the free end of the first output terminal 211, and the free end of the second input terminal 32 beyond the free end of the first input terminal 31, the upper first output terminal 211 does not completely cover the lower second output terminal 221, and the upper first input terminal 31 does not completely cover the lower second input terminal 32, so as to facilitate welding of the second connecting member with the second output terminal 221 and the second input terminal 32, which helps to reduce the difficulty of assembling the power module 30 and the capacitor module 20.
[0148] For example, the portion of the second output end 221 extending from the free end of the first output end 211 is used as a welding area for welding with the second electrical connector 70, and the portion of the second input end 32 extending from the free end of the first output end 211 is used as a welding area for welding with the second electrical connector 70. By scanning from top to bottom with the laser, during the scanning process, the first output end 211 and the first input end 31 do not block the welding area below, which helps to reduce the difficulty of welding the second electrical connector 70 with the second output end 221 and the second input end 32.
[0149] In some embodiments, reference Fig. 20 and Fig. 22 The first electrical connector 60 is provided with a first stress release portion 64. The first stress release portion 64 is provided to help release the deformation stress of the first electrical connector 60 caused by pressure or heat during laser welding, reduce the welding gap between the first electrical connector 60 and the first output terminal 211 and the first input terminal 31, and improve welding stability.
[0150] In some embodiments, the second electrical connector 70 is provided with a second stress release portion 73. The second stress release portion 73 is provided to help release the deformation stress of the second electrical connector 70 caused by pressure or heat during laser welding, reduce the welding gap between the second electrical connector 70 and the second output terminal 221 and the second input terminal 32, and improve welding stability.
[0151] The structures of the first stress release portion 64 and the second stress release portion 73 may be the same or different.
[0152] The first stress release portion 64 and the second stress release portion 73 may be configured as a through hole 761 , a notch, or the like.
[0153] For example, Fig. 20 and Fig. 22 As shown, the first stress release portion 64 is a rectangular groove disposed on the edge of the first electrical connector 60 , and the second stress release portion 73 is a rectangular groove disposed on the edge of the second electrical connector 70 .
[0154] In some embodiments, the length of the first output end 211 is the same as the length of the second output end 221. The length of the first input end 31 is the same as the length of the second input end 32.
[0155] In some embodiments, the width of the first output end 211 is smaller than the width of the second output end 221, and the free end of the second output end extends from the free end of the first output end. The width of the first input end 31 is smaller than the width of the second input end 32, and the free end of the second input end extends from the free end of the first input end.

[0158] In the embodiment of the present application, by providing the second insulating portion 42, the creepage distance between the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 is increased, which helps to reduce the safety hazard caused by arcing between the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 under high voltage.
[0159] In some embodiments, the second insulating portion 42 protrudes from a side of the first output terminal 211 away from the second output terminal 221 , which further increases a creepage distance between the first output terminal 211 and the second output terminal 221 .
[0160] It can be understood that in this embodiment, the top surface of the second insulating portion 42 is higher than the top surface of the first output end 211 .
[0161] In some embodiments, the first insulating member 40 is provided with a first positioning portion 43, and the first positioning portion 43 is configured to position the first electrical connector 60.
