[0017] It should be further understood that the term "and / or" used in the present application specification and the appended claims means any combination of one or more of the associated listed items and all possible combinations, and includes these combinations.
[0018] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of a transformer is provided for an embodiment of the present application. As shown in Figure 1 , the transformer includes a first primary winding N1A, a second primary winding N1B, a first secondary winding N2, a second secondary winding N3 and a winding frame. The transformer is a sandwich structure, and the first primary winding N1A and the second primary winding N1B sandwich the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3. The first primary winding N1A is close to the bottom of the winding slot of the winding frame, which is the inner layer, and correspondingly, the second primary winding N1B is the outer layer.
[0019] Please refer to Figure 2 ,Figure 2 is a schematic flow chart of a winding optimization method of a transformer provided by an embodiment of the present application. As shown in the figure, the specific steps of the winding optimization method of the transformer include S101-S103. Figure 2
[0020] S101, two layers of tight winding are performed on the winding frame of the transformer by using the first copper wire to form the first primary winding N1A.
[0021] For example, the first copper wire should be selected to have a relatively large diameter (such as 0.8*2 specification), because the first primary winding N1A is located in the inner layer of the winding frame, and the heat dissipation condition is relatively poor. The heat needs to be transferred to the surface of the transformer through multiple layers of thermal resistance for dissipation. The use of a relatively large diameter can effectively reduce the resistance value of the copper wire, thereby reducing the transmission loss and the amount of heat generated. At the same time, the tight winding method ensures the compactness of the winding and good coupling degree. The design of two layers of tight winding not only meets the required number of turns, but also facilitates the uniform distribution of magnetic flux through the layered winding method. This design of using thick wire in the inner layer can significantly improve the overall temperature rise performance of the transformer and prolong the service life.
[0022] S102, two second copper wires are used to perform single-layer tight winding respectively close to the first primary winding N1A to form the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3.
[0023] For example, the secondary winding is divided into two independent windings (N2 and N3), which can not only realize the functions of multiple output or center tap, but also realize different output voltage configurations through reasonable connection method. The winding method close to the first primary winding N1A ensures good coupling coefficient, reduces leakage inductance, and improves energy transmission efficiency. This design also helps to reduce the distributed capacitance between the windings and improve the high-frequency characteristics of the transformer, and is particularly suitable for high-frequency applications such as switching power supplies.
[0024] S103, the third copper wire is used to perform single-layer tight winding close to the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3 to form the second primary winding N1B, and the ratio of the diameter of the first copper wire to the diameter of the third copper wire is in the range of 1.1-1.4, and the number of strands of the first copper wire is the same as the number of strands of the second copper wire.
[0025] For example, the second primary winding N1B (N1B) at the outermost layer uses a thinner wire diameter (such as 0.7*2 specification), although the current density is higher and the loss is larger, but since it is at the outermost layer of the winding frame, it has the best heat dissipation condition, and the heat can be directly dissipated to the surrounding environment without the need to pass through multiple layers of thermal resistance. The ratio range of the wire diameter of the first copper wire and the third copper wire is set to 1.1-1.4, which is an optimized design. The ratio ensures that the overall volume of the inner and outer windings will not be too large, and in the case of not changing the winding frame, the performance of the transformer can be improved and the heat dissipation index can be achieved, and the optimization of loss distribution is also realized. This "thick inside and thin outside" design cleverly uses the principle of heat conduction: the thick wire with small heat generation is placed in the inner layer with poor heat dissipation condition, and the thin wire with large heat generation is placed in the outer layer with good heat dissipation condition, thereby optimizing the overall temperature rise. The actual measurement data shows that this design can reduce the temperature of the transformer by about 5 degrees, significantly improving the reliability and service life of the transformer.
[0026] The embodiment of the present application provides a winding optimization method of a transformer, which comprises the following steps: adopting a first copper wire to tightly perform two-layer dense winding on a winding frame of the transformer to form a first primary winding N1A; adopting two second copper wires to respectively tightly perform single-layer dense winding on the first primary winding N1A to form a first secondary winding N2 and a second secondary winding N3; and adopting a third copper wire to tightly perform single-layer dense winding on the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3 to form a second primary winding N1B, wherein the ratio range of the wire diameter of the first copper wire and the wire diameter of the third copper wire is 1.1-1.4, and the number of strands of the first copper wire is the same as the number of strands of the second copper wire. In the above method, the first primary winding N1A with a larger wire diameter is arranged in the inner layer, so that the current density and the copper loss are reduced, thereby reducing the temperature of the inner layer, and the second primary winding N1B with high loss is arranged in the outer layer, so that the high-efficiency heat dissipation of the surface of the transformer is directly utilized, and the overall temperature rise is cooperatively inhibited.
[0027] In order to more clearly introduce the technical scheme of the present application, the technical scheme of the present application will be introduced through specific embodiments below. It should be noted that the specific embodiments are used to expand the description of the technical scheme of the present application, and are not intended to limit the present application.
[0028] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 The parameter table of the winding provided by the embodiment of the present application is shown.
[0029] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 , the method further comprises: selecting a copper wire with a wire diameter of TIW0.8 and a number of strands of 2 as the first copper wire; and selecting a copper wire with a wire diameter of TIW0.7 and a number of strands of 2 as the second copper wire.
[0030] For example, the first copper wire is selected as a copper wire with a line diameter of TIW 0.8 and a strand number of 2. The selection takes into account the regulatory requirements and performance optimization. TIW represents triple insulated wire, which has excellent electrical insulation performance and can meet the regulatory electrical insulation distance requirements between the primary and secondary sides without additional insulation measures. The line diameter of 0.8 mm is relatively thick, which can effectively reduce the current density and transmission loss of the first primary winding N1A. The triple insulation structure generally includes a basic insulation layer, a reinforced insulation layer, and a protective insulation layer, each of which has independent insulation functions, so that sufficient insulation strength can be ensured even if one of the layers is damaged. This design allows the transformer winding slot to be free of additional retaining walls, simplifying the structural design of the transformer and reducing manufacturing costs. At the same time, although the thicker line diameter occupies more winding space, reasonable winding layout and optimization design can still meet the assembly requirements of the magnetic core.
[0031] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 3 the method further includes selecting a third copper wire as an enameled litz wire with a line diameter of UEW 0.10 and a strand number of 180.
[0032] For example, UEW represents polyurethane enameled wire, which has good heat resistance and electrical performance. The single-strand line diameter of 0.10 mm combined with the design of 180 strands forms a typical litz wire structure. This multi-strand thin wire design can effectively suppress the skin effect during high-frequency operation, as the diameter of each thin wire is much smaller than the skin depth, and the current can be uniformly distributed throughout the conductor cross section. The design of 180 strands not only provides sufficient conductor cross-sectional area to carry the secondary current, but also reduces the influence of proximity effect through the twisted structure of the thin wires. Another advantage of litz wire is its good flexibility, which facilitates winding and molding. Compared with the triple insulated wire used in the primary side, the use of enameled wire in the secondary side can reduce the thickness of the insulation layer and improve the window utilization rate.
[0033] Referring to Figure 4 , Figure 4 a connection diagram of a winding provided by an embodiment of the present application is shown.
[0034] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 4 the method further includes connecting the first end of the first primary winding N1A as a first primary pin PIN1; connecting the second end of the first primary winding N1A and the first end of the second primary winding N1B as a second primary pin N1; and connecting the second end of the second primary winding N1B as a third primary pin PIN2; wherein the first primary pin PIN1, the second primary pin N1, and the third primary pin PIN2 are all current input terminals of the transformer.
[0035] Exemplarily, the design of connecting the two ends of the first primary winding N1A and the two ends of the second primary winding N1B to form a three-primary-pin structure provides flexible input configuration options. This connection actually connects the first primary winding N1A and the second primary winding N1B through an intermediate tap to form a primary structure with a center tap. The second primary pin N1 acts as the center tap, and various operating modes can be achieved: in some applications, the center tap can be used to implement double-tube forward, push-pull, and other topological structures; in other applications, different connection methods can be used to switch the input voltage (such as 110V / 220V automatic switching). This design also helps to balance the current distribution of the two primary windings, especially under asymmetric load conditions. By reasonably designing the turn ratio of the two primary windings, different voltage transformation ratios can be achieved. At the same time, this segmented primary design helps to reduce the distributed capacitance of the winding and improve the high-frequency characteristics of the transformer. In practical applications, the three-primary-pin design also facilitates PCB layout, and the pin positions can be arranged flexibly according to the specific circuit topology.
[0036] In some embodiments, as shown in FIG. 7, the method further includes: connecting the first end of the first secondary winding N2 as a first secondary pin PIN7; connecting the second end of the first secondary winding N2 and the first end of the second secondary winding N3 as a second secondary pin PIN10; and connecting the second end of the second secondary winding N3 as a third secondary pin PIN9; wherein the first secondary pin PIN7, the second secondary pin PIN10, and the third secondary pin PIN9 are current output terminals of the transformer. Figure 4
[0037] Exemplarily, the secondary winding adopts a three-pin structure similar to the primary winding, and the center tap configuration is formed by connecting the specific ends of the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3. This design is of great significance in switching power supply applications, especially in cases where symmetrical positive and negative output or full-wave rectification is required. The center-tapped secondary structure can cooperate with two rectifier diodes to achieve full-wave rectification, which has lower conduction voltage drop and higher efficiency compared to bridge rectification. In some applications, the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3 can provide independent outputs, and multi-output functions can be achieved through different rectification and filtering circuits. This design also helps to reduce output ripple, as the two secondary windings can work alternately, and the pulsation frequency of the output current is twice the switching frequency. The secondary pin as a current output terminal, its connection method directly affects the output characteristics. By reasonably designing the turn ratio and connection method of the two secondary windings, different output voltage combinations can be achieved. At the same time, the center tap structure also helps to reduce common-mode noise and improve the EMC performance of the power supply. The flexibility of this design allows the same transformer to adapt to different application requirements.
[0038] In some embodiments, 3TS insulation layers are arranged between the two layers of the first primary winding N1A, between the first primary winding N1A and the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3, and between the first secondary winding N2 and the second secondary winding N3 and the second primary winding N1B.
[0039] For example, 3TS represents 3 Tape Spiral, which is a reliable insulation method formed by spiral winding of multiple layers of tape. The insulation layer arranged between the two layers of the first primary winding N1A is mainly to improve the interlayer voltage distribution, reduce the interlayer capacitance, and prevent interlayer breakdown. The 3TS insulation layer arranged between the primary and secondary windings is a key measure to meet the regulatory requirements, ensuring that the primary and secondary windings have sufficient electrical isolation strength to withstand the specified voltage test. This insulation design not only considers the normal working voltage, but also considers factors such as transient overvoltage and long-term aging. The thickness and material selection of the 3TS insulation layer are carefully designed to ensure insulation strength and control overall thickness to avoid affecting the assembly of the magnetic core. At the same time, reasonable insulation layer arrangement also helps to improve the heat conduction path of the transformer, although it increases the thermal resistance, but through the optimization of material selection and thickness control, its impact can be minimized. This strict insulation design ensures that the transformer can meet the requirements of various regulatory standards.
[0040] The above is only a specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily think of various equivalent modifications or replacements within the technical scope disclosed in the present application, and these modifications or replacements should be covered within the protection scope of the present application. Therefore, the protection scope of the present application should be subject to the protection scope of the claims.
