When a component is said to be "connected" to another component, it can be directly connected to the other component or it may be in a middle component.

[0020] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used in this invention have the same meaning as commonly understood by one of ordinary skill in the art to which this invention pertains. The terminology used in this specification is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. The term "and / or" as used in this invention includes any and all combinations of one or more of the associated listed items.

[0021] The following detailed description of some embodiments of the present invention is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.

[0022] Please refer to Figures 1 to 9 This invention provides an inductor 100, comprising a magnetic ring 10 and two symmetrical windings 20 wound around the magnetic ring 10. The magnetic ring 10 is a ring structure with its ends connected, and the two windings 20 are spaced apart. Each winding 20 includes a first copper busbar 21, a second copper busbar 22, a third copper busbar 23, a fourth copper busbar 24, and a fifth copper busbar 25.

One end of the third copper busbar 23 is detachably connected to the first copper busbar 21, and the other end is detachably connected to the second copper busbar 22. The fourth copper busbar 24 is detachably connected to the first copper busbar 21, and the fifth copper busbar 25 is detachably connected to the second copper busbar 22. The first and second copper busbars 21 and 22 are flush, the third copper busbar 23 is U-shaped, and the fourth and fifth copper busbars 24 and 25 are located on opposite sides of the third copper busbar 23 in a second direction X, and are spaced apart from the third copper busbar 23.

[0023] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figure 3The magnetic ring 10 includes two winding portions 11 symmetrically arranged in the second direction X, and two arc-shaped portions (not shown) symmetrically arranged in the first direction Y. Each arc-shaped portion connects to one of the two winding portions 11 to form a ring structure with ends connected. Two windings 20 are respectively wound on the two winding portions 11, ensuring that there are no air gaps throughout the magnetic ring 10 and that the magnetic fields passing through the two windings 20 are identical. This makes the inductance of the common-mode current passing through the two windings 20 consistent, which is beneficial for improving the common-mode interference suppression effect of the inductor 100. The first direction Y intersects with the second direction X, where the first direction Y corresponds to the length direction of the inductor 100 and the second direction X corresponds to the width direction of the inductor 100.

[0024] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figure 8 The first copper busbar 21 has a first socket 211, and the second copper busbar 22 has a second socket 221. The first socket 211 and the second socket 221 are arranged opposite each other or staggered. One end of the third copper busbar 23 has a first plug 231, and the other end of the third copper busbar 23 has a second plug 232. The first plug 231 is inserted into the first socket 211, and the second plug 232 is inserted into the second socket 221.

[0026] Optionally, the first insert 231 and the first socket 211 are interference-fitted, or the size of the first insert 231 is smaller than the size of the first socket 211. The first insert 231 and the first socket 211 can be connected and fixed by welding, snap-fitting, screwing, riveting, etc., without limitation. Optionally, the connection direction of the second insert 232 and the second socket 221 is similar to the connection direction of the first insert 231 and the first socket 211, which can be referred to for reference only and will not be described again. Optionally, the first insert 231, the second insert 232 and the third copper busbar 23 are an integral structure.

[0027] Optionally, there are multiple first plugs 231, second plugs 232, first sockets 211 and second sockets 221, which are spaced apart. Multiple first plugs 231 and multiple first sockets 211 are connected one-to-one, and multiple second plugs 232 and multiple second sockets 221 are connected one-to-one, so as to improve the connection strength between the third copper busbar 23 and the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22.

[0028] By setting the first copper busbar 21 to have a first socket 211 and the second copper busbar 22 to have a second socket 221, with the first socket 211 and the second socket 221 being directly opposite each other or staggered, and the third copper busbar 23 having a first plug 231 at one end and a second plug 232 at the other end, the first plug 231 is inserted into the first socket 211 and the second plug 232 is inserted into the second socket 221, so that the third copper busbar 23 is relatively fixed to the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 in the first direction Y and the second direction X, thereby improving the connection strength.

[0029] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figure 8 The first copper busbar 21 is also provided with a third socket 212, and the second copper busbar 22 is also provided with a fourth socket 222.

This arrangement ensures that the fourth copper busbar 24 and the fifth copper busbar 25 and the third copper busbar 23 are spaced apart, while also ensuring that the fourth copper busbar 24 and the fifth copper busbar 25 have a cross-sectional area that meets performance requirements, thereby improving the space utilization of the inductor 100.

[0031] Optionally, the shape and connection direction of the third socket 212, the third plug block 241, the fourth socket 222 and the fourth plug block 251 are similar to the shape and connection direction of the first plug block 231, the second plug block 232, the first socket 211 and the second socket 221 mentioned above. They can be referred to for reference and will not be described again.

[0032] By setting the first copper busbar 21 to also have a third socket 212, and the second copper busbar 22 to also have a fourth socket 222, the third socket 212 and the fourth socket 222 are staggered. One end of the fourth copper busbar 24 forms a third plug 241, and one end of the fifth copper busbar 25 forms a fourth plug 251. The third plug 241 is inserted into the third socket 212, and the fourth plug 251 is inserted into the fourth socket 222, so that the fourth copper busbar 24 and the first copper busbar 21 are relatively fixed in the first direction Y and the second direction X, and the fifth copper busbar 25 and the second copper busbar 22 are relatively fixed in the first direction Y and the second direction X, thereby improving the connection strength.

[0033] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figures 4 to 8The fourth copper busbar 24 has a first plug-in portion 242 and a first connecting portion 243. The first plug-in portion 242 is connected to the first connecting portion 243.

The fifth copper busbar has a second plug-in portion 252 and a second connecting portion 253. The second plug-in portion 252 is connected to the second connecting portion 253. The end of the second plug-in portion 252 away from the second connecting portion 253 is detachably connected to the second copper busbar 22 through a fourth plug 251. The first plug-in portion 242 and the second plug-in portion 252 are staggered.

The first connecting terminal 30 is detachably connected to the first connecting portion 243, and the second connecting terminal 40 is detachably connected to the second connecting portion 253.

[0035] See Appendix Figure 2 The first connecting terminal 30 has a first mounting hole 31, and the second connecting terminal has a second mounting hole 41. The inductor 100 also includes a magnetic ring housing 51, which has multiple third mounting holes 513. The inductor 100 also includes multiple first fixing members 60 and multiple second fixing members 70. The multiple first fixing members 60 are installed one-to-one in the multiple third mounting holes 513. One of the second fixing members 70 passes through the first mounting hole 31 and the first connecting hole 244, and another second fixing member 70 passes through the second mounting hole 41 and the second connecting hole 254. The multiple second fixing members 70 are connected and fixed one-to-one with the multiple first fixing members 60, so that the first connecting terminal 30 and the second connecting terminal 40 are detachably connected to the fourth copper busbar 24 and the fifth copper busbar 25, respectively, and the fourth copper busbar 24 and the fifth copper busbar 25 are connected to the magnetic ring housing 51. Optionally, the first fixing member 60 is a nut, and the second fixing member 70 is a bolt of the corresponding specification.

[0036] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figures 4 to 7 The third copper busbar 23 includes a third connecting part 234 and two third plug-in parts 233 connected in sequence. The two ends of the third connecting part 234 are respectively connected to the two third plug-in parts 233, and the two third plug-in parts 233 are symmetrically arranged.

[0037] Please refer to the following: Figure 8The first connecting portion 243 has a first connecting hole 244, the second connecting portion 253 has a second connecting hole 254, and the third connecting portion 234 has a third connecting hole 235. The first connecting hole 244 and the second connecting hole 254 are used to receive input or output current, and the third connecting hole 235 is used for positioning.

[0038] Specifically, both third plug-in portions 233 extend along the third direction Z, and the third connecting portion 234 extends along the first direction Y. Both third plug-in portions 233 are located on the side of the third connecting portion 234 in the third direction Z, and the two third plug-in portions 233 are arranged opposite to each other in the first direction Y.

[0039] Optionally, the third copper busbar 23 has a U-shaped structure, and the third connecting part 234 and the two third plug-in parts 233 are an integral structure.

[0040] By setting the third copper busbar 23 to include a third connecting part 234 and two third plug-in parts 233 connected in sequence, the two ends of the third connecting part 234 are respectively connected to the two third plug-in parts 233, and the two third plug-in parts 233 are symmetrically arranged. The first connecting part 243 forms a first connecting hole 244, the second connecting part 253 forms a second connecting hole 254, and the third connecting part 234 forms a third connecting hole 235. The first connecting hole 244 and the second connecting hole 254 are used to receive input or output current, and the third connecting hole 235 is used for positioning, so that the third copper busbar 23 can be connected to the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 to be arranged around the magnetic ring 10. At the same time, the structure of the third copper busbar 23 is simple and easy to process and form.

[0041] In a specific embodiment, the third plug-in portion 233, the first plug-in portion 242 and the second plug-in portion 252 have the same extension length in the third direction Z, and the first connecting portion 243, the second connecting portion 253 and the third connecting portion 234 have the same extension length in the first direction Y, so that the impedance at all points of the winding 20 is consistent, which is beneficial to the balance of common mode suppression effect and the reduction of inductive reactance to differential mode signals.

[0042] In the specific implementation method, please refer to Figure 8 The fourth copper busbar 24 and the fifth copper busbar 25 have the same shape, and the fourth copper busbar 24 and the fifth copper busbar 25 are arranged opposite to each other along the first direction Y.

[0043] Specifically, the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 have the same shape, that is, the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 are arranged in a complementary manner.

[0044] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 9The inductor 100 also includes an insulating structure 50, which includes a magnetic ring housing 51 that encloses the magnetic ring 10. Both windings 20 are wound around the magnetic ring housing 51. Specifically, the magnetic ring housing 51 includes a shell 511 and a cover plate 512. The shapes of the shell 511 and the cover plate 512 correspond to the shape of the magnetic ring 10. The magnetic ring 10 is housed within the shell 511. The cover plate 512 is detachably connected to the shell 511 to close the opening of the shell 511, thereby completely insulating the magnetic ring 10 from the windings 20, preventing short circuits between the magnetic ring 10 and the windings 20, and increasing the cross-sectional area of ​​the windings 20.

[0045] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 9 The insulation structure 50 also includes a first partition 52 and a second partition 53. Both the first partition 52 and the second partition 53 are connected to the magnetic ring housing 51. The first partition 52 is disposed between the two windings 20, and the second partition 53 is disposed between the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22.

[0046] Specifically, the first partition 52 includes a first partition 521 and a second partition 522. The magnetic ring shell 51 has an annular structure with its ends connected. The first partition 521 passes through the shell 511 and protrudes from the shell 511 in the third direction Z. The first partition 521 is connected to the inner peripheral sidewall of the shell 511 and the end face of the shell 511 in the third direction Z. The second partition 522 is disposed on the end face of the cover plate 512 facing the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 in the third direction Z, and is directly opposite the first partition 521 in the third direction Z. Optionally, multiple protrusions 54 are connected to the opposite surfaces of the first partition 52 in the first direction Y and the inner peripheral sidewall of the shell 511. The protrusions 54 are used to elastically abut against the winding 20 to improve the connection strength between the winding 20 and the magnetic ring shell 51. Optionally, the first partition 521 and the shell 511 are an integral structure, and the second partition 522 and the cover plate 512 are an integral structure.

[0047] The second partition 53 is disposed on the two opposite end faces of the cover plate 512 in the first direction Y and on the surface facing the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22, and is connected to the second partition portion 522. Optionally, the second partition 53 and the cover plate 512 are integrally formed.

[0048] The first partition 52 protrudes from the winding 20 at both ends in the third direction Z and at least one end in the second direction X. The second partition 53 protrudes from the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 at one end in the third direction Z and both ends in the first direction Y. The second partition 53 extends along the edge shape of the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22. The third direction Z intersects with both the first direction Y and the second direction X. The third direction Z corresponds to the height direction of the inductor 100 to increase the creepage distance between adjacent copper busbars and prevent arcing and breakdown.

[0049] By setting a first partition 52 and a second partition 53, both the first partition 52 and the second partition 53 are connected to the magnetic ring housing 51. The first partition 52 is set between the two windings 20, and the second partition 53 is set between the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22, so that the two windings 20 are insulated from each other and the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22, thus preventing short circuits.

[0050] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 5 and Figure 9 The insulation structure 50 also includes a third partition 55 and a fourth partition 56.

[0053] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figures 1 to 3 The inductor 100 also includes a heat exchange structure 80, which has an installation space 821 and a flow channel 811. The magnetic ring 10, the insulating structure 50, and the two windings 20 are all housed within the installation space 821.

The mounting member 82 is disposed on one surface of the heat exchange plate 81 in the third direction Z. The mounting member 82 encloses the installation space 821. The heat exchange plate 81 has a flow channel 811. The cover plate 512 of the magnetic ring shell 51 of the insulating structure 50 is connected to the heat exchange plate 81. There is a gap between the two windings 20 and the inner peripheral sidewall of the installation space 821. The installation space 821 is filled with an insulating medium (not shown) to insulate the magnetic ring 10 and the two windings 20 from the heat exchange structure 80 and improve the heat exchange efficiency. Optionally, the surfaces of the two windings 20 facing the inner peripheral sidewalls and bottom wall of the mounting space 821 are both planar to further improve heat exchange efficiency.

[0054] In a specific embodiment, the outer peripheral surface of the mounting component 82 is connected with a plurality of spaced heat dissipation ribs 84, which extend in the third direction Z to increase the heat exchange area between the mounting component 82 and the external environmental medium.

[0055] By setting up a heat exchange structure 80, which has an installation space 821 and a flow channel 811, the magnetic ring 10, the insulation structure 50 and the two windings 20 are all housed in the installation space 821. The flow channel 811 is used for the passage of the heat exchange medium, so that the inductor 100 can exchange heat with the heat exchange medium in the flow channel 811 through the heat exchange structure 80, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance of the inductor 100.

[0056] For a detailed implementation, please refer to Figure 5 and Figure 10 The bottom wall of the installation space 821 is provided with a first positioning structure 83, and the end of the insulating structure 50 facing the bottom wall of the installation space 821 is provided with a second positioning structure 57.

[0057] Specifically, the first positioning structure 83 is a positioning hole recessed in the heat exchange plate 81, and the second positioning structure 57 is a positioning pin provided on the cover plate 512 of the magnetic ring shell 51 of the aforementioned insulating structure 50. The positioning pin protrudes from the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 of the two windings 20. A portion of the positioning pin is received in the positioning hole and abuts against the bottom wall of the positioning hole, so that there is a preset interval distance between the first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 and the heat exchange plate 81, so as to achieve miniaturization of the inductor 100 while ensuring that there is a sufficient heat exchange distance between the windings 20 and the heat exchange plate 81.

[0058] Optionally, there are multiple first positioning structures 83 and multiple second positioning structures 57, with each of the multiple first positioning structures 83 and multiple second positioning structures 57 connected in a one-to-one correspondence.

[0059] The installation space 821 has a first positioning structure 83 on its bottom wall, and the insulation structure 50 has a second positioning structure 57 on one end facing the bottom wall of the installation space 821. The first positioning structure 83 and the second positioning structure 57 are detachably connected, which allows for effective positioning when installing the heat dissipation structure and ensures the installation accuracy of the inductor 100.

Optionally, there are multiple first connectors 514 and multiple second connectors 822, with the multiple first connectors 514 spaced apart from each other and the multiple second connectors 822 corresponding one-to-one with the multiple first connectors 514.

[0061] The inductor 100 provided by this invention features a magnetic ring 10 and two symmetrical windings 20 wound around the magnetic ring 10. The magnetic ring 10 is a ring structure with its ends connected. The two windings 20 are spaced apart. Each winding 20 includes a first copper busbar 21, a second copper busbar 22, and a third copper busbar 23. The first copper busbar 21 and the second copper busbar 22 are spaced apart and flush. The third copper busbar 23 is U-shaped. One end of the third copper busbar 23 is detachably connected to the first copper busbar 21, and the other end is detachably connected to the second copper busbar 22. This design makes the windings 20 a split structure while the magnetic ring 10 is an integral structure. This reduces the permeability loss of the magnetic ring 10 and achieves a reduction in the cross-sectional area of ​​the magnetic ring and the volume of the inductor 100 while maintaining the same performance. This is beneficial for miniaturizing the inductor 100 and also reduces the installation difficulty and dimensional deviation of the windings 20.
