These terms are only used to distinguish information of the same type from each other. For example, without departing from the scope of this document, the first information may also be referred to as the second information, and similarly, the second information may also be referred to as the first information.

[0028] See also Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of a transformer assembly of the related art, which includes a transformer 100a and a transformer 100b. The two transformers are connected in parallel to meet the demand for high current, but this will cause the overall volume and cost of the transformer assembly to increase sharply. Based on this, the present application provides an integrated magnetic device and a voltage conversion module.

[0029] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 , Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of a three-dimensional structure of an integrated magnetic device provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 3 yes Figure 2 Schematic diagram of an exploded structure, the magnetic device may include a magnetic core 10, a plurality of primary windings 20 and a plurality of secondary windings 30.

[0030] The magnetic core 10 includes a substrate 11 and at least two magnetic columns 12 . All the magnetic columns 12 are disposed on one side of the substrate 11 .

[0031] There are multiple primary windings 20, which correspond to the magnetic columns 12 one by one. All primary windings 20 are connected in series and are respectively arranged on the corresponding magnetic columns 12, for example, they can be arranged at one end of the magnetic column 12 close to the substrate 11. Preferably, the winding direction of each primary winding 20 is the same. For example, the current flowing into each primary winding 20 is simultaneously clockwise or simultaneously counterclockwise, so that the magnetic flux generated by each primary winding 20 can offset each other, such as Figure 4 As shown, it can achieve the effect of current balancing and make the loss of the magnetic core 10 lower and have a lower temperature rise.

[0032] There are multiple secondary windings 30 , which correspond to the magnetic columns 12 one by one. All secondary windings 30 are connected in parallel and are respectively arranged on corresponding magnetic columns 12 , for example, they can be arranged at one end of the magnetic column 12 away from the substrate 11 .

[0033] It is understandable that the primary winding 20 and the secondary winding 30 can be sleeved on the corresponding magnetic column 12, and the primary winding 20 is located between the substrate 11 and the corresponding secondary winding 30, or the secondary winding 30 is located between the substrate 11 and the corresponding primary winding 20. As an example, please continue to refer to 3, the substrate 11 may include a support portion 111, and a limit portion 112 bent and extended from the edge of the support portion 111 to one side, and the magnetic column 12 and the limit portion 112 are located on the same side of the support portion 111. The limit portion 112 can be two side plates, and are located on opposite sides of the substrate 11. The limit portion 112 can also be a plurality of side plates, which are evenly distributed or unevenly distributed along the circumference of the substrate 11.

[0034] It should be noted that Figure 2 and 3 The example of setting two of the central magnetic column 12, the primary winding 20 and the secondary winding 30 is taken as an example, and the same is applicable when three or more are set, and other embodiments of the present application will not be described in detail.

[0035] The magnetic device of this embodiment is an integrated structure, the magnetic core 10 includes at least two magnetic columns 12, and each magnetic column 12 is respectively provided with a primary winding 20 and a secondary winding 30, and all primary windings 20 are connected in series, and all secondary windings 30 are connected in parallel, so as to achieve a large current. Since all primary windings 20 and secondary windings 30 are located on a common magnetic core 10, rather than two independent magnetics, copper, magnetic core and insulating materials can be significantly reduced, and the cost of raw materials can be reduced. Compared with the solution of connecting two transformers in parallel, the volume of the magnetic device can be greatly reduced, and the all-in-one integration and miniaturization of the transformer are realized.

[0036] It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present application, the primary winding 20 may be a conventional cylindrical winding structure, but the manufacturing process of winding around the magnetic column 12 is relatively complicated. Therefore, in one embodiment of the present application, all primary windings 20 are preferably coils connected in series in sequence, such as Figure 3 As shown, the solution of serially connecting the coils can reduce the height of the product and further reduce the volume of the product by about 30%. In the manufacturing process, only the serial coils and the magnetic core 10 need to be assembled, which simplifies the product manufacturing process and reduces the manufacturing cost.

[0037] Similarly, the secondary winding 30 may also be preferably a parallel copper foil coil, such as Figure 3 As shown, the volume of the magnetic device can also be reduced, and the manufacturing process can be simplified to reduce the manufacturing cost.

[0038] In one embodiment, see Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 6 , Figure 5 is a front view of a magnetic device with an integrated structure provided in an embodiment of the present application, Figure 6 : This is a schematic diagram of the circuit structure of an integrated magnetic device provided by an embodiment of the present application. Two primary windings 20 are connected in series (i.e., a series coil), and after the series connection, they include an input terminal 21 and an output terminal 22, which can be connected to a power supply. Both secondary windings 30 are copper foil coils, each of which includes an input contact 31 and an output contact 32, all input contacts 31 are electrically connected to each other, all output contacts 32 are electrically connected to each other, and a load can be connected between the input contact 31 and the output contact 32.

[0039] The present application also provides a voltage conversion module, which may include the magnetic device of the integrated structure described in the above embodiments. Exemplarily, the voltage conversion module can be applied to charging devices, such as chargers and charging piles, and can also be applied to electronic equipment, automobiles and other fields.
