Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of temperature sensor arrangement of stator windings, and in particular, to a bracket, a stator, a motor and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] As the power density of motors increases significantly, the thermal monitoring of motors must be addressed to ensure their reliability. This is because the increase in temperature may cause the insulation performance of the stator winding to deteriorate or burn out. In addition, the motor's rotor may also be demagnetized after being exposed to high temperatures, which will affect its service life.

[0003] For the motor stator winding, a temperature sensor is generally used for thermal monitoring. Usually, the temperature sensor can be fixed on the stator winding through an external fixing. In order to facilitate the fixation of the temperature sensor, a busbar or a three-phase outgoing line is generally used to assist the installation and fixation of the temperature sensor, or the temperature sensor is directly tied to the end of the winding for dripping paint and fixing. However, for the commonly used stator winding, its highest temperature point is not necessarily at the busbar or the three-phase outgoing line; it is difficult to accurately fix the position of the temperature sensor by directly tying the temperature sensor to the end of the winding at the highest temperature point.

[0004] It should be noted that the information disclosed in the above background technology section is only used to enhance the understanding of the background of the present disclosure, and therefore may include information that does not constitute the prior art known to ordinary technicians in the field.

Therefore, the following specific implementation modes and drawings are only exemplary descriptions of the technical solution of the present application, and should not be regarded as the entirety of the present application or as a limitation or restriction on the technical solution of the present application.

They are relative concepts and may change accordingly according to their different positions and different usage states.

[0035] refer to Figure 1 , 2 and 3, which respectively show a schematic diagram of the structure of a bracket 100 proposed according to an embodiment of one aspect of the present application and a schematic diagram of the bracket when arranged in the stator winding viewed from two directions. The bracket 100 is used to fix the temperature sensor 200 at the highest temperature point of the stator winding 300, especially to fix the temperature sensor 200 in the middle space formed by the ends of the two layers of windings at the highest temperature point of the stator winding 300. In the variable pitch W-pin flat wire stator winding, due to the staggered arrangement of the winding ends, a hollow middle space is formed between the winding ends. Arranging the temperature sensor 200 in the middle space can ensure its more secure fixation and precise positioning. Figure 1 In an embodiment, the bracket includes a bracket mounting portion 1 and a sensor mounting portion 2, and the bracket mounting portion 1 is arranged on the sensor mounting portion 2. An accommodating portion 21 is arranged on the sensor mounting portion 2 to accommodate the temperature sensor 200, and the portion of the sensor mounting portion 2 accommodating the temperature sensor 200 can extend into the middle space formed by the two-layer winding ends of the stator winding 300. In an optional case, the sensor mounting portion 2 is arranged to have a structure with two ends, especially a rectangular structure, and the temperature sensor 200 is arranged near one end thereof (at Figure 1 It should be understood that when the temperature sensor 200 is accommodated in the accommodating portion 21, at least one surface thereof is not blocked by the accommodating portion 21, so that the surface can be in contact with the surface of the winding, or the surface of the shaped conductor of the winding.

[0036] exist Figure 1 In the embodiment, the bracket mounting part 1 is arranged on the sensor mounting part 2, and a fixing part 11 is arranged on the bracket mounting part 1, which can be fixed on the winding end, and when it is fixed on the winding end, the sensor mounting part 2 presses the temperature sensor 200 accommodated therein against the winding surface of the stator winding 300. In an optional case, the bracket mounting part 1 is arranged close to one end of the sensor mounting part 2, especially close to the end of the sensor mounting part 2 extending into the middle space formed by the two layers of winding ends.

[0037] In an optional case, the parts of the bracket mounting part 1 and the sensor mounting part 2 accommodated in the intermediate space are configured to match the shape of the intermediate space, so that the temperature sensor 200 can be inserted as deep into the intermediate space as possible. In order to accurately measure the temperature of the stator winding 300, the best way is to make the temperature measuring surface of the temperature sensor 200 fit the winding surface as much as possible, which requires the temperature sensor 200 to extend as far as possible into the intermediate space formed by the winding end. Figure 1 In an embodiment, the bracket mounting portion 1 is configured to be a triangular shape that matches the shape of the intermediate space, and is arranged close to one end of the rectangular sensor mounting portion 2 (the temperature sensor 200 is accommodated in the accommodating portion of the sensor mounting portion 2 away from the end), and in an optional case, a cutting portion or a cutout 22 is configured on the end of the sensor mounting portion 2, and the cutting portion or the cutout 22 matches the shape of the intermediate space. Figure 1 In the embodiment, one corner of the rectangular sensor mounting portion 2 is cut off to form an inclined cut. As a result, the bracket mounting portion 1 and the end of the sensor mounting portion 2 can be better extended into the intermediate space, so that one end of the temperature sensor 200 can be immersed in the intermediate space. It should be understood that the shape of the bracket mounting portion 1 and the shape of the cut portion or cutout 22 of the sensor mounting portion 2 can be constructed differently from the above-mentioned shapes according to the actual shape of the winding intermediate space where the bracket 100 is arranged, which does not deviate from the scope of the present application.

[0038] In one embodiment of one aspect of the present application, the accommodating portion 21 is configured as a long strip-shaped groove, and the depth of the groove is less than the thickness of the temperature sensor 200 accommodated therein in the direction of the groove depth. This arrangement of the accommodating portion 21 ensures that the temperature measuring surface of the temperature sensor 200 actually protrudes from the accommodating portion 21 and can be placed against the winding surface without being hindered by the accommodating portion 21, so as to accurately measure the temperature. In this embodiment, the groove is, for example, configured in the form of a slideway, which extends through the entire length of the sensor mounting portion 2, and the temperature sensor 200 can be inserted into the groove from one end of the sensor mounting portion 2 and slide to the position where it needs to be arranged. This method ensures that the temperature sensor 200 can easily adjust its position in the accommodating portion 21. For example, a structural feature for positioning, such as a stopper, etc., can also be configured in the groove for accurate positioning of the temperature sensor 200 therein. It should be understood that the accommodating portion 21 can also be configured in the form of a clamping portion, and the temperature sensor 200 is clamped in the clamping portion for fixing.

[0039] In one embodiment of one aspect of the present application, a first opening 23 is provided at a portion of the accommodating portion 21 that is not in contact with the temperature sensor 200, and when the temperature sensor 200 is installed in the accommodating portion 21, its wiring harness passes through the first opening 23. In an optional case, the first opening 23 is particularly provided at the end of the sensor mounting portion 2 that is not fully accommodated in the above-mentioned intermediate space. The first opening 23 not only provides a passage for the wiring harness of the temperature sensor 200 so that its wiring harness can be arranged through the first opening 23, but also allows the wiring harness to contact the bracket 100, and plays a role in further fixing the bracket 100 at the end of the winding when the wiring harness is tightened. It should be understood that, in an optional case, the first opening 23, for example, can also be arranged on the bracket mounting portion 1.

[0040] In one embodiment of one aspect of the present application, a second opening 24 is provided at a portion of the accommodating portion 21 that is not in contact with the temperature sensor 200 for dripping paint. The second opening 24 is provided, for example, near the arrangement position of the temperature sensor 200, and provides a paint entry space when dripping paint. By dripping paint, not only can the insulation between the winding forming wires be ensured, but also the bracket 100 and the winding end can be better fixed by the viscosity of the insulating paint.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present application, a slot 12 for a tying rope is configured on the edge of the bracket mounting portion 1 for fixing the tying rope, so as to better fix the position of the bracket 100 on the stator winding 300 through the tying rope. Figure 1In the embodiment, two card slots 12 are configured on the bracket mounting portion 1. However, it should be understood that other numbers of card slots may be configured according to actual application conditions, and the card slots 12 may also be configured on the sensor mounting portion 2 or on both the sensor mounting portion 2 and the bracket mounting portion 1.

[0042] In one embodiment of one aspect of the present application, the fixing portion 11 is configured as a hook protruding from the bracket mounting portion 1, which can be engaged with one of the two layers of winding ends. In an optional case, the hook and the temperature sensor 200 are arranged on the same side of the bracket 100, so that when the hook is engaged with the winding end, it simultaneously enables the sensor mounting portion 2 to apply a force toward the winding end to the temperature sensor 200, so that the temperature sensor 200 can be against the winding end. In an optional case, the projection area of ​​the hook on the bracket mounting portion 1 is configured as a through hole 13 to facilitate the reverse molding of the hook when manufacturing the bracket mounting portion 1. In addition, a plurality of, for example, two, material-reducing recessed portions 14 are configured around the hook on the bracket mounting portion 1 to reduce the material consumed when manufacturing the bracket mounting portion 1. It should be understood that the fixing portion 11 can also be configured as a clamping member or an adhesive member, for example, which is clamped to the winding end or adhered to the winding end.

[0043] Another aspect of the present application provides a stator, which includes

[0044] stator core;

[0045] The stator winding 300 is installed on the stator core, and the highest temperature point of the stator winding 300 during operation is at the winding end of one layer of the winding;

[0046] The bracket 100 and the temperature sensor 200, the bracket 100 comprises a bracket mounting portion 1 and a sensor mounting portion 2;

[0047] The sensor mounting portion 2 is provided with a receiving portion 21 for receiving the temperature sensor 200. The portion of the sensor mounting portion 2 receiving the temperature sensor 200 extends into the middle space formed by the two-layer winding ends of the stator winding 300.

[0048] The bracket mounting portion 1 is arranged on the sensor mounting portion 2, and a fixing portion 11 is arranged on the bracket mounting portion 1, which is fixed on the winding end, and when it is fixed on the winding end, the sensor mounting portion 2 will press the temperature sensor 200 accommodated therein against the winding surface at the highest temperature point of the stator winding 300.

[0049] In another embodiment of the present application, the stator winding 300 is a flat-wire wave winding, especially a flat-wire wave winding with a variable pitch shaped wire. Due to the structural form of this winding and the arrangement of the oil injection cooling path of the winding, its highest temperature point is generally not at the bus or three-phase outlet, but generally at a certain stator end. The temperature sensor 200 can be fixed at the highest temperature point of this stator winding 300 through the above-mentioned bracket 100, especially using the staggered intermediate space formed by the winding ends of the stator winding 300, so that the bracket 100 can be accurately and shape-matched fixed in the intermediate space, so that the temperature sensor 200 can extend into the intermediate space to better fit the winding surface.

[0050] The third aspect of the present application further provides a motor, which includes the above-mentioned stator. The motor of the present application has all the technical effects of the above-mentioned stator, which will not be described in detail here.

[0051] The fourth aspect of the present application further provides a vehicle, which includes the above motor. The vehicle of the present application has all the technical effects of the above bracket, which will not be described in detail here.

[0052] It should be understood that the motor of the present application can be installed on various vehicles, including cars, trucks, buses, hybrid vehicles, pure electric vehicles, etc. Therefore, the subject matter of the present application is also intended to protect various vehicles equipped with the motor of the present application.
