In the following embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis, and the parts not described in detail in a certain embodiment can be referred to the related description of other embodiments.

[0032] To solve the technical problem of excessive overall axial size of the bus rings of the phase coils in the prior art, an embodiment of the present application provides a bus assembly of a motor. The bus assembly has an axial direction and a radial direction perpendicular to each other. The bus assembly comprises an insulating base. The bus assembly further comprises bus rings, which include a first bus ring, a second bus ring, and a third bus ring. The first bus ring, the second bus ring, and the third bus ring are arranged in the axial direction and stacked on each other on the insulating base, and the first bus ring, the second bus ring, and the third bus ring are insulated from each other by the insulating base. The bus assembly further comprises a star point connector arranged on the insulating base. The star point connector is insulated from the bus rings by the insulating base. The star point connector is arranged in the radial direction and spaced apart from at least one of the bus rings. Details are described below.

[0033] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 , Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of an embodiment of the bus assembly of the present application, Figure 2 is Figure 1 is an exploded structural schematic diagram of the bus assembly shown in Figure 3 is Figure 1 is a partial schematic diagram of the A-A direction cross-sectional structure of the bus assembly shown in.

[0034] In an embodiment, the motor comprises a bus assembly 10. The bus assembly 10 electrically connects the same phase coils among a plurality of coils arranged in a circumferential direction on a stator core of the motor. The bus assembly 10 comprises an insulating base 11. The bus assembly 10 has an axial direction Z and a radial direction R perpendicular to each other. The bus assembly 10 further comprises bus rings 12. The bus rings 12 include a first bus ring 121, a second bus ring 122, and a third bus ring 123. The first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122, and the third bus ring 123 are arranged in the axial direction Z and stacked on each other on the insulating base 11, and the first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122, and the third bus ring 123 are insulated from each other by the insulating base 11. The first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122, and the third bus ring 123 are respectively used to connect the coils of different phases of the motor, specifically, the first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122, and the third bus ring 123 are respectively used to connect the U-phase coil, the V-phase coil, and the W-phase coil of the motor, for example, the first bus ring 121 can be used to connect the W-phase coil of the motor, the second bus ring 122 can be used to connect the V-phase coil of the motor, and the third bus ring 123 can be used to connect the U-phase coil of the motor, which is not limited herein. In the axial direction Z, the second bus ring 122 is located between the first bus ring 121 and the third bus ring 123.

[0035] The bus assembly 10 further comprises a star point connector 13. The star point connector 13 is arranged on the insulating base 11, and the star point connector 13 is insulated from the first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122 and the third bus ring 123 by the insulating base 11. The star point connector 13 is used to connect the star points of the coils of different phases of the motor. The star point connector 13 is arranged radially R apart from at least one of the bus rings 12. In this embodiment, the star point connector 13 is arranged reasonably so that the star point connector 13 is not stacked with the first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122 and the third bus ring 123, and the star point connector 13 has little effect on the overall axial Z dimension of the bus assembly 10, thus the axial Z dimension of the bus assembly 10 can be reduced, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the motor.

[0036] Specifically, the first bus ring 121 has a first surface 1213 facing away from the third bus ring 123, and the third bus ring 123 has a second surface 1231 facing away from the first bus ring 121. The bus assembly 10 further has a reference plane a perpendicular to the axial Z. The star point connector 13 is arranged radially R apart from at least one of the first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122 and the third bus ring 123 in the reference plane a, and at least part of the star point connector 13 is located between the first surface 1213 and the second surface 1231 in the axial Z. In other words, the star point connector 13 is arranged reasonably in this embodiment, so that the star point connector 13 has little effect on the overall axial Z dimension of the bus assembly 10, thus the axial Z dimension of the bus assembly 10 can be reduced, which is beneficial to the miniaturization design of the motor.

[0037] Further, please refer to Figure 4 The star point connector 13 comprises a connection main body 131, and a first star point connecting portion 132, a second star point connecting portion 133 and a third star point connecting portion 134 connected to the connection main body 131. The first star point connecting portion 132, the second star point connecting portion 133 and the third star point connecting portion 134 are arranged circumferentially apart from each other along the bus ring 12. The first star point connecting portion 132, the second star point connecting portion 133 and the third star point connecting portion 134 are respectively used to connect the star points of coils of different phases, i.e. the star points of U-phase coils, the star points of V-phase coils and the star points of W-phase coils. Specifically, the connection main body 131 is arranged radially R apart from at least one of the bus rings 12, and the connection main body 131 of the star point connector 13 is located between the first surface 1213 and the second surface 1231 in the axial Z.

[0038] Exemplarily, as Figure 3As shown, the connecting body part 131 is arranged opposite to the first bus ring 121, specifically, the surface of the connecting body part 131 in the axial direction Z is flush with the first surface 1213 of the first bus ring 121. Of course, in other embodiments of the present application, the connecting body part 131 can be arranged opposite to the third bus ring 123, i.e., the surface of the connecting body part 131 in the axial direction Z is flush with the second surface 1231 of the third bus ring 123, or part of the connecting body part 131 is located between the first surface 1213 and the second surface 1231 in the axial direction Z, which is not limited herein.

[0039] In an embodiment, the bus assembly 10 further comprises a first phase connector 125, a second phase connector 126 and a third phase connector 127. The first phase connector 125 is connected to the first bus ring 121, and the first bus ring 121 is connected to the coils of the motor through the first phase connector 125; the second phase connector 126 is connected to the second bus ring 122, and the second bus ring 122 is connected to the coils of the motor through the second phase connector 126; the third phase connector 127 is connected to the third bus ring 123, and the third bus ring 123 is connected to the coils of the motor through the third phase connector 127.

[0040] The motor of the present embodiment adopts a concentrated winding design, and has high power density, high efficiency and small axial dimension Z. In order to improve the efficiency of the motor, the coils of the concentrated winding generally adopt a parallel connection scheme. Therefore, the number of the first phase connectors 125 is multiple, and each first phase connector 125 is arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the first bus ring 121, and each first phase connector 125 is electrically connected to the coils of the same phase in the motor; similarly, the number of the second phase connectors 126 is multiple, and each second phase connector 126 is arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the second bus ring 122, and each second phase connector 126 is electrically connected to the coils of the same phase in the motor; similarly, the number of the third phase connectors 127 is multiple, and each third phase connector 127 is arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction of the third bus ring 123, and each third phase connector 127 is electrically connected to the coils of the same phase in the motor.

[0041] For example, the first phase connector 125 is connected to the outer periphery of the first bus ring 121, the second phase connector 126 is connected to the outer periphery of the second bus ring 122, and the third phase connector 127 is connected to the outer periphery of the third bus ring 123. There are multiple star-point connectors 13, each distributed at intervals on the outer periphery of each bus ring 12 (i.e., the first bus ring 121, the second bus ring 122, and the third bus ring 123, hereinafter the same), and the first star-point connecting portion 132, the second star-point connecting portion 133, and the third star-point connecting portion 134 of the star-point connector 13 are located on the side of the connecting body portion 131 away from the bus ring 12. Through the aforementioned method, the bus assembly 10 of this embodiment has a smaller size in the radial direction R, further facilitating the miniaturization design of the motor.

[0042] The first phase connector 125, the first star point connector 132, the second phase connector 126, the second star point connector 133, the third phase connector 127, and the third star point connector 134 are sequentially and alternately distributed. In this way, the first phase connector 125, the second phase connector 126, the third phase connector 127, the first star point connector 132, the second star point connector 133, and the third star point connector 134 are respectively positioned opposite to the lead wires of their respective coils and are easy to connect. The lead wires only need to be led out along the Z-axis, avoiding the need for complex bending processes for the coil lead wires to connect with the bus ring 12. This reduces the difficulty of handling and welding the motor coil lead wires, allowing the wiring operation of the lead wires to be completed by automated equipment such as winding machines.

[0043] Of course, in other embodiments of this application, the first phase connector 125 may be connected to the inner side of the first bus ring 121, the second phase connector 126 may be connected to the inner side of the second bus ring 122, the third phase connector 127 may be connected to the inner side of the third bus ring 123, and the star connectors 13 may be distributed on the inner side of each bus ring 12. This is not limited here.

[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 4 As shown, the distances D1 between the first phase connector 125 and the first star point connector 132 in the circumferential direction of the busbar assembly 10, D2 between the second phase connector 126 and the second star point connector 133 in the circumferential direction of the busbar assembly 10, and D3 between the third phase connector 127 and the third star point connector 134 in the circumferential direction of the busbar assembly 10 are equal. The distances between each phase connector and each star point connector and the central axis of the motor are equal. The first phase connector 125, the second phase connector 126, the third phase connector 127, the first star point connector 132, the second star point connector 133, and the third star point connector 134 are coplanar on the same side in the axial Z direction, which further facilitates reducing the axial Z dimension of the busbar assembly 10, thereby contributing to the miniaturization design of the motor.

[0045] Please refer to Figure 5 The phase connectors and the star point connectors each include a clip 14. The clip 14 includes a clamping portion 143 having a clamping opening 144 in which the lead wire of the coil is disposed and clamped by the clamping portion 143, and the lead wire is electrically connected to the clamping portion 143 by welding or the like. At least part of the clip 14 further includes a first connecting portion 141 and a second connecting portion 142. One end of the first connecting portion 141 is connected to the bus ring 12 or the connecting body portion 131, and the first connecting portion 141 extends in the radial direction R. One end of the second connecting portion 142 is connected to the other end of the first connecting portion 141, and the second connecting portion 142 extends in the axial direction Z. The clamping portion 143 is connected to the other end of the second connecting portion 142. The first connecting portion 141 and the second connecting portion 142 are in an integral structure, and the clip 14 is formed by bending the first connecting portion 141 and the second connecting portion 142 integrally, so that the second connecting portion 142 has sufficient size in the axial direction Z, and the risk of breakage of the clamping portion 143 when the clip 14 is bent can be reduced. Figure 3 Exemplarily, the clamping portion 143 of the phase connector and the star point connector is disposed close to the third bus ring 123, and the upper end surfaces of the clamping portions 143 of the phase connector and the star point connector are coplanar.

[0046] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 is a schematic view of a cross-sectional structure of an embodiment of the bus assembly.

[0047] In an embodiment, the insulating base body 11 is formed by two injection molding processes, which has lower manufacturing cost compared to the potting process. Specifically, the insulating base body 11 includes a first injection insulator 111 and a second injection insulator 112. The first injection insulator 111 has a first insulating cavity 1111 inside, and the first bus ring 121 and the second bus ring 122 are accommodated in the first insulating cavity 1111, and the third bus ring 123 is laminated on the side of the first injection insulator 111 in the axial direction Z away from the first bus ring 121 and the second bus ring 122. The second injection insulator 112 has a second insulating cavity 1121 inside, and the first injection insulator 111 and the third bus ring 123 are accommodated in the second insulating cavity 1121, wherein the first injection insulator 111 and the second injection insulator 112 are in a split structure.

[0048] The injection molding process of the insulating base 11 can be specifically as follows: first, the first bus ring 121 and the second bus ring 122 are stacked in the axial direction Z, and a first injection molding process is performed to form a first injection insulator 111; then, the third bus ring 123 is stacked on the side of the first injection insulator 111 away from the first bus ring 121 and the second bus ring 122 in the axial direction Z, and is placed into the star point connector 13, and a second injection molding process is performed to form a second injection insulator 112, thereby obtaining the final bus assembly 10. The first injection insulator 111 and the second injection insulator 112 are formed by two injection molding processes, so that the first injection insulator 111 and the second injection insulator 112 are in a split structure. By the foregoing manner, the insulating base 11 has low manufacturing cost and good sealing and insulating performance, and the insulating treatment process after the coil lead of the motor is welded to the bus assembly 10 is omitted.

[0049] Further, the first injection insulator 111 includes a first insulating main body part 1112, a second insulating main body part 1113, and an insulating connecting part 1114. The first insulating main body part 1112 is provided with the second insulating main body part 1113 on both sides in the axial direction Z, and each second insulating main body part 1113 is spaced apart from the first insulating main body part 1112, so that each first insulating cavity 1111 is formed between the first insulating main body part 1112 and the second insulating main body part 1113, and the first bus ring 121 and the second bus ring 122 are arranged in different first insulating cavities 1111. Each second insulating main body part 1113 and the first insulating main body part 1112 are connected by the insulating connecting part 1114. Since the first insulating main body part 1112, the second insulating main body part 1113, and the insulating connecting part 1114 are formed by the same injection molding process, the first insulating main body part 1112, the second insulating main body part 1113, and the insulating connecting part 1114 are in an integral structure.

[0050] Please refer to Figure 7 The first bus ring 121 includes a first main ring 1211 and a first protruding part 1212. The inner edge and / or the outer edge of the first main ring 1211 is provided with the first protruding part 1212, that is, the first protruding part 1212 protrudes in the radial direction R and away from the first main ring 1211. In the first injection molding process, the mold clamps the first protruding part 1212 to fix the first bus ring 121, which facilitates the injection of the first injection insulator 111 and avoids the influence of the mold clamping the first main ring 1211 on the sealing and insulating performance of the first main ring 1211. Figure 7 Exemplarily, the inner edge and the outer edge of the first main ring 1211 are both provided with the first protruding part 1212.

[0051] Similarly, please refer toFigure 8 The second bus ring 122 comprises a second main ring 1221 and a second protrusion 1222, the inner edge and / or the outer edge of the second main ring 1221 is provided with the second protrusion 1222, that is, the second protrusion 1222 protrudes in the radial direction R and away from the second main ring 1221. In the first injection molding process, the mold clamps the second protrusion 1222 to fix the second bus ring 122, which facilitates the injection of the first injection insulation body 111, and avoids the mold clamping the second main ring 1221 affecting the sealing insulation performance of the second main ring 1221. Figure 8 Exemplarily, the inner edge and the outer edge of the second main ring 1221 are provided with the second protrusion 1222.

[0052] Further, please refer to Figure 9 At least part of the first protrusion 1212 and the second protrusion 1222 are spaced apart in the circumferential direction of the bus ring 12, and at least part of the orthographic projection of the first protrusion 1212 on the reference plane α and the orthographic projection of the second protrusion 1222 on the reference plane α are spaced apart. In other words, the first protrusion 1212 and the second protrusion 1222 are arranged in a staggered manner, which facilitates the mold clamping the first protrusion 1212 and the second protrusion 1222 at the same time in the first injection molding process, thereby fixing the first bus ring 121 and the second bus ring 122.

[0053] The first protrusion 1212 and the second protrusion 1222 are arranged in a spaced apart manner in the circumferential direction of the bus assembly 10, so that a gap is formed between the first protrusion 1212 and the second protrusion 1222, and at least part of the insulation base body 11 is arranged in the gap. Specifically, the above-mentioned insulation connecting portion 1114 is arranged in the gap, so that the first protrusion 1212 and the second protrusion 1222 are insulated from each other.
