[0031] The embodiments of the present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are for illustrative purposes only and should not be construed as limiting the scope of the invention.
[0032] like Figures 1-2 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a power module packaging structure, including a packaging box 1, a DBC substrate 3 and a cover plate 5. The packaging box 1 has a substrate groove 2 inside, and the DBC substrate 3 is placed at the bottom of the substrate groove 2. A power semiconductor chip 4 is disposed on the surface of the DBC substrate 3, and the cover plate 5 is snapped to the top of the packaging box 1. The number of power semiconductor chips 4 is six, and the power semiconductor chips 4 are connected in parallel. The number of DBC substrates 3 is three, and the DBC substrates 3 have the same shape and size.
[0033] The packaging structure of the power module includes the following steps:
[0034] Step 1: Solder the six power semiconductor chips 4, the drive resistor, and the thermistor onto the DBC substrate 3;
[0035] Step 2: Bond power lines and drive lines sequentially to six power semiconductor chips 4 on the DBC substrate 3;
[0036] Step 3: Weld the bonded DBC substrate 3 to the bottom of the substrate groove 2, and then perform potting and curing.
[0037] Step 4: After the potting adhesive has cured, place the cover plate 5 on top of the encapsulation box 1, thereby completing the encapsulation through locking.
[0038] Based on the above description, the packaging box 1 of the present invention can carry three DBC substrates 3 with the same structural size, which facilitates the placement of DBC substrates 3 during the manufacturing process. This solves the problem that the shape and placement position of existing DBC substrates 3 are different in shape and size, which requires identification of their shape and placement position before placement, thereby improving efficiency. Moreover, it can meet the requirements of six power semiconductor chips 4 connected in parallel, thereby improving the current carrying capacity.
[0039] like Figures 1-8 As shown, a sealed chamber 6 is formed inside the substrate groove 2 on one side of the encapsulation box 1. The heat dissipation assembly 7 includes a gas-liquid pipe 701 disposed inside the sealed chamber 6, and a jacketed pipe 702 is sleeved on the outer wall of the gas-liquid pipe 701. A jacketed chamber 703 is provided between the outer wall of one end of the gas-liquid pipe 701 and the jacketed pipe 702. An air inlet pipe 705 is connected to one end face of the gas-liquid pipe 701 through a first one-way valve 704, and an air inlet pipe 705 is connected to one side of the gas-liquid pipe 701 through a second one-way valve 706. A gas distribution channel 707 is located at the bottom of the substrate groove 2 and below the DBC substrate 3. One end of the gas distribution channel 707, away from the second one-way valve 706, connects to the outside of the packaging box 1. The other end of the gas-liquid pipe 701 is connected to the interlayer chamber 703 via a third one-way valve 708 and a conduit. The side of the interlayer chamber 703 away from the third one-way valve 708 is connected to the gas-liquid pipe 701 via another conduit and a fourth one-way valve 709. The fourth one-way valve 709... Opposite to the third one-way valve 708, a flexible piston rod 710 runs through the gas-liquid pipe 701. The flexible piston rod 710 divides the gas-liquid pipe 701 into two spaces. Coolant is provided in the space near the fourth one-way valve 709 and the third one-way valve 708 and in the interlayer chamber 703. A cooling plate is provided at the bottom of this space, and the heat dissipation surface of the cooling plate is exposed at the bottom of the package 1. The end of the flexible piston rod 710 is connected by a rope 711 and a steering wheel 71. 2 is connected to a movable shaft 713, with turntables 714 rotatably connected to both ends of the movable shaft 713, forming an eccentric wheel with the turntables 714. A transmission gear 715 is fixed at the bottom of the movable shaft 713, a micro motor 716 is connected to the top of the eccentric wheel, and an electromagnet 717 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the eccentric wheel. The transmission gear 715 is located above the electromagnet 717, and a semi-toothed ring box 718 is provided below the electromagnet 717, and the semi-toothed ring box 718 is slidably connected to the encapsulation box 1.
[0040] The specific operation is as follows, considering that the six power semiconductor chips 4 will generate heat when working, the eccentric wheel is driven to rotate by the micro motor 716, so that the wire rope 711 carries the elastic piston rod 710 to make piston movement inside the gas-liquid pipe 701, when the elastic piston rod 710 is away from the first one-way valve 704, the first one-way valve 704 is opened and the second one-way valve 706 is closed, at this time, external air is introduced through the air inlet pipe 705, and when the elastic piston rod 710 is close to the first one-way valve 704, the first one-way valve 704 is closed and the second one-way valve 706 is opened, so that the air inside the gas-liquid pipe 701 is injected into the air distribution channel 707 and passes under the DBC substrate 3, thereby using the gas flow to take out the heat from the bottom of the DBC substrate 3 to achieve the heat dissipation effect;
[0041] When it is necessary to improve the gas flow rate to improve the heat dissipation effect, not only can the output efficiency of the micro motor 716 be improved to increase the piston frequency of the elastic piston rod 710, but also the electromagnet 717 can be energized to attract the half-tooth ring box 718 to slide upward, so that the inner tooth groove is flush with the transmission gear 715, and when the movable shaft 713 rotates with the rotating disc 714, the transmission gear 715 will mesh with the half-ring-shaped inner tooth groove, so that the transmission gear 715 rotates, and in the process of rotating, the transmission gear 715 will wind the wire rope 711, so that the elastic piston rod 710 obtains a greater stroke when it is retracted, thereby increasing the gas suction amount, and when the transmission gear 715 leaves the half-ring-shaped inner tooth groove, the wire rope 711 is released under the elastic action of the elastic piston rod 710, so that the extension distance of the elastic piston rod 710 is matched with the retraction distance, thereby increasing the gas discharge amount, thereby further increasing the gas intake amount inside the air distribution channel 707;
[0042] Based on the above description, the present application monitors the temperature inside the packaging box 1 based on the heat sensor, and can dissipate heat in three heat dissipation efficiencies for temperatures at different thresholds, respectively, the micro motor 716 is in low or medium efficiency output, so that the gas flows at low flow rate to dissipate heat, the micro motor 716 is in high efficiency output, so that the gas flows at medium flow rate to dissipate heat, and the micro motor 716 is in high efficiency output and the transmission gear 715 is cyclically meshed with the half-ring-shaped inner tooth groove, so that the extension and retraction stroke of the elastic piston rod 710 is increased, thereby making the gas flow at high flow rate to dissipate heat, thereby adapting to different temperature conditions to improve the heat dissipation effect;
[0043] When the elastic piston rod 710 is away from the first one-way valve 704 and close to the third one-way valve 708, the third one-way valve 708 is opened and the fourth one-way valve 709 is closed, the cooling liquid is pushed by the elastic piston rod 710 and injected into the interlayer chamber 703, and when the elastic piston rod 710 is close to the first one-way valve 704 and away from the third one-way valve 708, the third one-way valve 708 is closed and the fourth one-way valve 709 is opened, so that the cooling liquid in the interlayer chamber 703 returns to the gas-liquid pipe 701, and the cooling liquid circulates through the interlayer chamber 703 with the piston movement of the elastic piston rod 710, thereby being able to pre-cool the gas in the gas extraction part inside the gas-liquid pipe 701;
[0044] Based on the above description, the present application uses the elastic piston rod 710 to divide the gas-liquid pipe 701 into a cooling liquid chamber and an air extraction chamber, and with the piston movement of the elastic piston rod 710, the gas flow is cooled and radiated, and the cooling liquid is circulated through the interlayer chamber 703 to pre-cool the gas in the air extraction chamber, thereby further improving the heat dissipation effect of the gas cooling on the basis of the three heat dissipation efficiencies, and the bottom of the cooling liquid chamber is provided with a refrigeration fin to re-cool the cooling liquid circulating through the cooling liquid chamber, thereby prolonging the use time of the cooling liquid and avoiding excessive heat absorption to make the heat absorption pre-cooling effect lost.
[0045] In summary, the packaging structure of the power module, when in use, first, three DBC substrates 3 with consistent structure size can be carried in the packaging box 1, and the packaging box 1 can satisfy the parallel connection of six power semiconductor chips 4, thereby improving the current-carrying capacity;
[0046] Considering that the six power semiconductor chips 4 will generate heat when working, the micro motor 716 drives the eccentric wheel to rotate to make the wire rope 711 carry the elastic piston rod 710 to make piston movement inside the gas-liquid pipe 701, when the elastic piston rod 710 is away from the first one-way valve 704, the first one-way valve 704 is opened and the second one-way valve 706 is closed, at this time, external air is introduced through the air inlet pipe 705, and when the elastic piston rod 710 is close to the first one-way valve 704, the first one-way valve 704 is closed and the second one-way valve 706 is opened, so that the air inside the gas-liquid pipe 701 is injected into the air distribution channel 707 and passes below the DBC substrate 3, thereby using the gas flow to take out heat from below the DBC substrate 3 to achieve the heat dissipation effect;
[0047] When the gas flow rate needs to be increased to improve the heat dissipation effect, not only can the piston frequency of the elastic piston rod 710 be increased by increasing the output efficiency of the micro motor 716, but also the electromagnet 717 can be energized to attract the half-tooth ring box 718 to make it slide upwards, so that its inner tooth groove is flush with the transmission gear 715. When the movable shaft 713 rotates with the rotating disc 714, the transmission gear 715 will mesh with the half-ring inner tooth groove, so that the transmission gear 715 rotates. During the rotation of the transmission gear 715, it will wind the wire rope 711, so that a greater stroke is obtained when the elastic piston rod 710 contracts, thereby increasing the gas suction amount. When the transmission gear 715 leaves the half-ring inner tooth groove, the wire rope 711 is released under the elastic action of the elastic piston rod 710, so that the extension distance of the elastic piston rod 710 is matched with the contraction distance, thereby increasing the gas discharge amount, thereby further increasing the gas inlet amount in the gas distribution channel 707.
[0048] While the three heat dissipation efficiencies can be achieved, as the elastic piston rod 710 moves away from the first one-way valve 704 and approaches the third one-way valve 708, the third one-way valve 708 is opened and the fourth one-way valve 709 is closed. The cooling liquid is pushed by the elastic piston rod 710 and injected into the interlayer chamber 703. When the elastic piston rod 710 approaches the first one-way valve 704 and moves away from the third one-way valve 708, the third one-way valve 708 is closed and the fourth one-way valve 709 is opened, so that the cooling liquid in the interlayer chamber 703 returns to the gas-liquid pipe 701. The cooling liquid circulates through the interlayer chamber 703 with the piston movement of the elastic piston rod 710, thereby being able to pre-cool the gas in the gas extraction part inside the gas-liquid pipe 701. On the basis of the three heat dissipation efficiencies, the heat dissipation effect of the gas cooling heat dissipation is further improved.
