[0054] The present invention also provides the support pipe inside the inverter, so that the liquid cooling box can be supported above the bottom cover of the inverter and liquid cooling liquid can be introduced into the liquid cooling box through the support pipe, thereby reducing the arrangement of the pipes, making the structure more compact and miniaturized.
[0055] The present invention provides a column-mounted, integrated liquid-cooled inverter, comprising an inverter top cover 1, an inverter bottom cover 2, a housing 3 with a circular outer surface, a column-mounted liquid cooling box 100, and necessary electronic components. The liquid cooling box 100 is welded to the inverter bottom cover 2 via support pipes 12, positioning the entire liquid cooling box away from the inverter bottom cover 2 and facilitating component installation. Other electronic components are mounted on the surfaces of the inverter bottom cover 2 and the liquid cooling box 100.

In this way, the liquid can be effectively introduced into the liquid cooling box by utilizing the inlet holes passing through the inner and outer walls of the supporting pipe, thereby completing the transmission effect of the liquid cooling liquid.
[0063] In some embodiments,
[0064] A water tank outlet pipe 18 is provided on the water tank top cover 9. The liquid-cooled inverter also includes an inverter top cover 1.

[0068] The present invention uses a three-phase input port and a three-phase output port opened on the top cover of the inverter. Three wires can be introduced into the inverter through the three-phase input port and exported through the three-phase output port, thereby realizing the power connection function of the internal components of the inverter, further realizing the integration of power supply and cooling, making the structure more compact and the inverter as a whole more miniaturized.
[0069] See Figure 1The inverter of the present invention is also designed with a cylindrical overall shape. When disassembling the inverter, simply remove the inverter cover 1 and the outer shell 3 with its arc-shaped outer surface, making component installation very convenient. Furthermore, the inverter cover 1 is provided with a three-phase input port 20 and a three-phase output port 21. A certain electrical safety distance is maintained between each hole. Because the inverter is cylindrical, the orientation of the inlet and outlet holes can be changed by rotating the inverter, making wiring easier.

The inverter is integrated into a one-piece structure, significantly reducing its size while also enabling 360-degree, seamless disassembly and installation, reducing process complexity, improving installation efficiency, and balancing heat dissipation and disassembly and installation. Furthermore, column-type heat dissipation eliminates the need for complex liquid cooling piping designs, making internal cleaning more convenient.

[0082] See Figure 3 and Figure 4 The capacitor 11 is installed at the bottom of the column-type liquid cooling box 100 and is fixed by a capacitor clip bracket 17. The isolation plate 13 separates the liquid while ensuring that the heat generated by the capacitor 11 can be transferred to the liquid. The support pipe 12 serves as a support for the entire inverter on the one hand, and is also an important pipe for cooling the entire inverter on the other hand. The support pipe 12 and the column-type liquid cooling box 100 are interconnected by welding. The support pipe 12 has an inlet hole 14 in a part of the interior of the column-type liquid cooling box 100 for transporting the coolant to the interior of the liquid cooling box. The support pipe 12 contacts the inverter bottom cover 2 at a section of the opening. The inverter bottom cover 2 has four corresponding bottom water inlets 19. The coolant enters from the lower layer and flows out from the upper water tank outlet pipe 18 after cooling is completed. At this point, the column-type liquid cooling box 100 completes the cooling of the inverter's heating components, and one box has multiple uses, realizing integrated cooling.
