Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of piezoelectric transformer, in particular to a radial vibration piezoelectric transformer with asymmetric protruding electrodes and a preparation method thereof. BACKGROUND

[0002] The radial vibration piezoelectric transformer is a new type of piezoelectric transformer in development. The piezoelectric transformer has the outstanding advantages of realizing low-voltage and high-power output with small size, and can be used in electronic rectifiers, adapters and power supplies. Taking a circular radial vibration mode transformer as an example, the previous radial vibration piezoelectric transformer has paid attention to the single-piece shape of the transformer, the multi-piece stacking mode, the electrode lead-out, the composition of the insulating assembly and other issues, so as to achieve the purpose of output voltage reduction or voltage increase, and to achieve certain technical performance indicators, and to meet the specific safety standards of insulation isolation between primary and secondary. The traditional radial vibration piezoelectric transformer has the following technical bottlenecks:

[0003] The circular radial vibration mode single-piece surface electrode and the side electrode formed by extending the same are symmetrical. When the circular piece vibrates radially, two symmetrical standing wave points are often formed at two symmetrical protruding parts (i.e. the side electrode welding lead-out line part) outside the circumference of the single piece, which is larger than the diameter of the single piece. A large amount of energy is gathered at the standing wave points, forming two symmetrical heat points, and the high temperature may even melt the brazing points at the side electrode.

[0004] The efficiency fluctuates greatly when the load changes, and lacks self-adaptive adjustment capability;

[0005] The heat dissipation performance is insufficient, affecting the long-term reliability;

[0006] Although the prior art has made certain improvements through electrode structure optimization, it has not fundamentally solved the above problems. SUMMARY

[0007] The purpose of the present application is to provide a radial vibration piezoelectric transformer with asymmetric protruding electrodes and a preparation method thereof, to solve the problems raised in the background art.
