[0031] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the technical solution of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in combination with the specific embodiments of the utility model and the corresponding drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0032] The technical solutions provided by various embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] In one embodiment of the present invention, a driving power component is provided, such as Figures 1 to 5 As shown, the driving power component includes a driving circuit board 1, a stacked busbar 2 and a cooling water channel 3 which are stacked in sequence from top to bottom.

[0034] Specifically, a power board 4 is fixed on the side of the cooling water channel 3, that is, the power board 4 is arranged in the vertical direction, and a plurality of installation locations 5 (dashed area) arranged in a line in the horizontal direction and arranged at intervals are provided on the power board 4. The installation locations 5 are used to install the IGBT power unit 6 to realize the modular design of the IGBT power unit 6; wherein, the number of the installation locations 5 is a fixed value and will not change due to the change in the number of IGBT power units 6. The cooling water channel 3 is used to cool the IGBT power unit 6 to make its operation more stable, and the installation locations 5 arranged at intervals reduce interference between the IGBT power units 6. When the IGBT power unit 6 is installed on the installation location 5, the IGBT power unit 6 is arranged vertically, and the pins of the IGBT power unit 6 can pass through the stacked busbar 2 and be welded and fixed to the driver circuit board 1, thereby making the structure more compact and more integrated.

[0035] Therefore, the IGBT power unit 6 can be set according to the power demand. When high power is required, the number of IGBT power units 6 is increased, and the number of IGBT power units 6 is at most the same as the number of installation locations 5; when low power is required, the number of IGBT power units 6 is reduced, so that some installation locations 5 are vacant. In this way, the drive power component does not need to modify the structure and position of the drive circuit board 1, the stacked busbar 2 and the cooling water channel 3 to meet different power requirements and can be applied to controllers of different powers. Moreover, it is only necessary to simulate and verify the structure formed by the array of the drive circuit board 1, the stacked busbar 2, the cooling water channel 3 and the IGBT power unit 6 once, and then increase or decrease the number of IGBT power units 6 according to the power demand, which can ensure that the drive power component can operate stably and reduce the risk of research and development. In addition, drive power components of different powers can be produced and assembled by the same production line, thereby reducing production costs.

[0036] In summary, in the driving power component of the present embodiment, by setting a plurality of installation locations for installing IGBT power units on the power board on the side of the cooling water channel, the IGBT power unit is arranged vertically, and its pins can pass through the stacked busbars and be welded and fixed to the driving circuit board, thereby realizing the modular design of the IGBT power unit. Different numbers of IGBT power units can be set according to different power requirements without modifying the overall layout architecture, thereby ensuring the stability of the operation of the driving power component, greatly improving the design efficiency, and reducing the R&D risks and costs; and the driving power component has a compact structure and a higher degree of integration.

[0037] In this embodiment, a positioning groove (not shown in the figure) is opened at the installation position 5 on the power board 4, and the positioning groove is used to position the IGBT power unit 6 during installation to ensure that the IGBT power unit 6 can be accurately installed, so that the pins of the IGBT power unit 6 can accurately pass through the stacked busbar 2 and be welded and fixed to the drive circuit board 1.

[0038] In addition, if Figure 3 As shown, there are three cooling water channels 3, which are arranged in parallel and at intervals, and each cooling water channel 3 is independently provided with a water inlet and a water outlet, so that the cooling water channels 3 do not affect each other, and both sides of each cooling water channel 3 are provided with a power board 4, which ensures the stable operation of the IGBT power unit 6 on each power board 4.

[0039] And, if Figure 5 As shown, each power board 4 is provided with six mounting locations 5, which can not only ensure the power requirements of the conventional motor controller, but also prevent the size of the driving power component from being too large.

In other embodiments, less than six IGBT power units 6 may be installed in the six mounting locations 5. Figure 6 and Figure 7 As shown, according to four IGBT power units 6 , the remaining two mounting locations 5 are in a vacant state.

[0040] In this embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 8 As shown, the driving power component further includes an insulating bracket 7 .

[0041] The insulating support 7 is arranged below the cooling water channel 3 , and the cooling water channel 3 is fixed to the insulating support 7 by screws or bolts, so as to support and fix the cooling water channel 3 .

[0042] And, if Figure 8 As shown, a plurality of first fixing columns 8 and a plurality of second fixing columns 9 are provided on the upper end surface of the insulating bracket 7, and the first fixing columns 8 and the second fixing columns 9 are evenly distributed. Each first fixing column 8 passes through the cooling water channel 3 and is fixedly connected to the stacked busbar 2. The stacked busbar 2 can be fixedly connected to the first fixing column 8 by screws or bolts. Each second fixing column 9 passes through the cooling water channel 3 and the stacked busbar 2 in sequence and is fixedly connected to the driving circuit board 1. The driving circuit board 1 can be fixedly connected to the second fixing column 9 by screws or bolts. In this way, by providing the first fixing column 8 and the second fixing column 9, the stacked busbar 2 and the driving circuit board 1 can be supported and fixed, so that the positions of the cooling water channel 3, the stacked busbar 2 and the driving circuit board 1 can be relatively fixed, and the stability of the driving power component structure is ensured.

[0043] In addition, if Figure 8 As shown, a plurality of positioning posts 10 are provided on the upper end surface of the insulating bracket 7, and positioning holes cooperating with the positioning posts 10 are provided on the stacked busbar 2 and the driving circuit board 1, that is, positioning holes are opened on the stacked busbar 2 and the driving circuit board 1, and the positioning posts 10 can pass through the positioning holes on the stacked busbar 2 and the positioning holes on the driving circuit board 1 in sequence to realize the positioning of the stacked busbar 2 and the driving circuit board 1 before installation.

[0044] It should be noted that, in order to enhance the structural strength of the first fixing column 8, the second fixing column 9 and the positioning column 10, reinforcing rib structures may be provided between the first fixing column 8, the second fixing column 9 and the positioning column 10 and the insulation. The insulating bracket 7 may also be provided with reinforcing ribs, reinforcing grooves or reinforcing protrusions to enhance the structural strength of the insulating bracket 7.

[0047] Specifically, the potting cover 11 is disposed above the driving circuit board 1 and is used to position and shape the potting glue when the driving power component is potted, so that the potting glue can completely seal the driving power component and achieve insulation of the internal structure of the driving power component.
