Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of quick-insertion temperature sensors, and in particular relates to a quick-insertion temperature sensor used for monitoring a motor of an electric vehicle. Background Art
[0002] An important component of new energy electric vehicles is the electric motor. The hazards of electric vehicle motor overheating are multifaceted;
[0003] First, overheating of the motor will accelerate the aging of the motor components, thus shortening the life of the motor. This is because high temperature environment will cause the performance of the materials inside the motor to deteriorate. For example, the insulation material of the coil may accelerate aging due to high temperature, which will cause motor failure;
[0004] Secondly, if the motor overheats continuously, it is easy to cause damage to the internal parts of the motor, such as bearings, magnetic steel, etc., which may be deformed or damaged due to high temperature, and then cause the whole motor to fail. This will affect the driving performance of the electric vehicle and may even cause the electric vehicle to fail to operate normally;
[0005] In addition, motor overheating may also lead to more serious consequences; for example, the high temperature inside the motor may cause the insulation material to fail, thus causing safety hazards such as short circuit and fire;
[0006] Therefore, in order to ensure the long life of the motor and to give full play to its optimal performance, the temperature of the motor also needs to be continuously monitored. Therefore, it is crucial to monitor the temperature of the stator winding. This is an important means for the motor to fully utilize all its advantages and avoid the risk of overheating.
[0007] The traditional installation method of motor products is to directly bury the winding: if the motor design allows, the temperature sensor can be directly buried inside the motor winding. This can more accurately sense the temperature inside the motor and avoid the influence of heat transfer. The specific operation steps include selecting a suitable location, cleaning the winding surface, drilling holes to bury the sensor, etc. However, this buried winding installation method is prone to damage the head of the temperature sensor. Excessive pressure during the burial process will cause the NTC thermistor to crack, resulting in abnormal resistance of the temperature sensor, or piercing other parts of the sensor, causing the temperature sensor to short-circuit. For this reason, we propose a quick-insert temperature sensor for monitoring electric vehicle motors. Utility Model Content
[0008] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the deficiencies of the prior art and provide a quick-insert temperature sensor for monitoring electric vehicle motors that can overcome the above problems or at least partially solve the above problems.
[0009] In order to solve the above technical problems, the basic concept of the technical solution adopted by the utility model is: a quick-insert temperature sensor used for monitoring electric vehicle motors, comprising: a metal quick-release buckle, the metal quick-release buckle comprising an n-type portion, the n-type portion forming a slot, the metal quick-release buckle is installed on the copper busbar through the slot; the metal quick-release buckle is fixed with a clamping buckle by a clamping buckle, and the thermistor is tightly attached to the metal quick-release buckle; the metal quick-release buckle also includes a first V-shaped bending portion and a second V-shaped bending portion, so that the metal quick-release buckle is clamped on the copper busbar.
[0010] Preferably, extension parts are arranged on both sides of the first side portion on the n-type portion, and the clamping buckles are symmetrically arranged on the extension parts, and the thermistor is closely attached to the close-fitting surface of the first side portion by bending the clamping buckles together.
[0011] Furthermore, the first V-shaped bending portion and the second V-shaped bending portion are respectively arranged on the first side portion and the second side portion of the n-type portion, and the first V-shaped bending portion and the second V-shaped bending portion are both bent toward the slot.
[0012] Furthermore, one end of the first V-shaped bending portion located in the slot is configured as an arc-shaped bending portion, and the first V-shaped bending portion is formed with a first guiding inclined surface.
[0013] Furthermore, one end of the second V-shaped bending portion located in the clamping groove is arranged to directly face the clamping portion, and the second V-shaped bending portion is formed with a second guiding inclined surface.
[0014] Furthermore, the first guide bevel surface and the second guide bevel surface are tapered.
[0015] Furthermore, the length a of the first V-shaped bending portion is greater than the length b of the second V-shaped bending portion.
[0016] After adopting the above technical scheme, the utility model has the following beneficial effects compared with the prior art: the utility model connects the thermistor to the metal quick-release buckle, and then directly inserts the metal quick-release buckle into the copper busbar of the motor, so that the metal quick-release buckle is connected to the copper busbar, thereby avoiding damage to the thermistor during installation. At the same time, after the thermistor is connected to the metal quick-release buckle, it can be tightly attached to the metal quick-release buckle, and the metal quick-release buckle is tightly attached to the copper busbar. Therefore, the thermistor can sense the temperature of the motor more quickly, thereby improving the speed of monitoring the motor temperature. Therefore, the setting of the metal quick-release buckle can not only improve the installation efficiency of the thermistor, but also avoid damage to the thermistor during installation, and at the same time can also improve the monitoring efficiency of the motor temperature.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0026] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the utility model clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. The following embodiments are used to illustrate the utility model but are not used to limit the scope of the utility model.
[0027] Example 1: Reference Figure 1-Figure 6A quick-insert temperature sensor for monitoring an electric vehicle motor comprises: a metal quick-release buckle 1, the metal quick-release buckle 1 comprises an n-shaped portion 11, the n-shaped portion 11 forms a card slot 12, the metal quick-release buckle 1 is installed on a copper bus 3 through the card slot 12; the metal quick-release buckle 1 is fixed with a clamping buckle 152 provided thereon to fix a thermistor 2, and the thermistor 2 is closely attached to the metal quick-release buckle 1; the metal quick-release buckle 1 also comprises a first V-shaped bending portion 16 and a second V-shaped bending portion 17, so as to clamp the metal quick-release buckle 1 on the copper bus 3;
[0028] Extensions 151 are provided on both sides of the first side portion 13 of the n-shaped portion 11, and clamping buckles 152 are symmetrically provided on the extensions 151. By bending the clamping buckles 152 together, the thermistor 2 is closely attached to the close contact surface 15 of the first side portion 13;
[0029] The first V-shaped bending portion 16 and the second V-shaped bending portion 17 are respectively disposed on the first side edge portion 13 and the second side edge portion 14 of the n-shaped portion 11, and the first V-shaped bending portion 16 and the second V-shaped bending portion 17 are both bent toward the slot 12;
[0030] One end of the first V-shaped bending portion 16 located in the slot 12 is configured as an arc-shaped bending portion 161, and the first V-shaped bending portion 16 is formed with a first guiding inclined surface 162;
[0031] One end of the second V-shaped bending portion 17 located in the clamping groove 12 is configured to directly face the clamping portion 171 , and the second V-shaped bending portion 17 is formed with a second guiding inclined surface 172 ;
[0032] The first guide slope 162 and the second guide slope 172 are tapered;
[0033] The thermistor 2 is encapsulated with a Teflon filler. The thermistor 2 encapsulated with the Teflon filler is placed in the clamping buckle 152 on the extension portion 151, and the clamping buckle 152 is bent using a tool, thereby connecting the thermistor 2 to the metal quick-release buckle 1. At the same time, the setting of the clamping buckle 152 can make the thermistor 2 and the close contact surface 15 close. After the thermistor 2 and the close contact surface 15 are close, the temperature of the motor can be sensed more quickly, so that the speed of monitoring the motor temperature is improved, and the thermistor 2 can be prevented from being damaged during installation.
[0034] After the thermistor 2 is connected to the metal quick-release buckle 1, the metal quick-release buckle 1 is inserted into the copper bar 3 of the motor, so that the n-shaped portion 11 clamps the copper bar 3; in addition, when the metal quick-release buckle 1 is clamped on the copper bar 3, the first V-shaped bending portion 16 and the second V-shaped bending portion 17 further clamp the copper bar 3, thereby improving the firmness of the connection between the metal quick-release buckle 1 and the copper bar 3;
[0035] A notch groove is provided on the copper busbar 3. When the metal quick-release buckle 1 is inserted into the copper busbar 3, since the arc-shaped bend 161 and the straight clamping portion 171 are at the same horizontal plane, the arc-shaped bend 161 and the straight clamping portion 171 will enter into the notch groove of the copper busbar 3, so that the arc-shaped bend 161 and the straight clamping portion 171 are against the bottom surface of the notch groove, effectively preventing the metal quick-release buckle 1 from being pulled off the copper busbar 3 by external force;
[0036] The first guide bevel 162 and the second guide bevel 172 are arranged in a conical shape, which can facilitate the metal quick-release buckle 1 to be inserted into the copper busbar 3 .
[0037] Embodiment 2:
[0038] Reference Figure 1-Figure 6 , a quick-insert temperature sensor for monitoring an electric vehicle motor, which is substantially the same as Embodiment 1, and furthermore: a length a of the first V-shaped bending portion 16 is greater than a length b of the second V-shaped bending portion 17;
[0039] When the length of the first V-shaped bending portion 16 is set longer, the clamping force on the copper busbar 3 can be increased;
[0040] The second V-shaped bending portion 17 is arranged to be shorter than the first V-shaped bending portion 16 , so that the metal quick-release buckle 1 can be easily removed from the copper busbar 3 .
[0041] Therefore, the utility model connects the thermistor 2 to the metal quick-release buckle 1, and then directly inserts the metal quick-release buckle 1 into the copper busbar 3 of the motor, so that the metal quick-release buckle 1 is connected to the copper busbar 3, thereby avoiding damage to the thermistor 2 during installation. At the same time, after the thermistor 2 is connected to the metal quick-release buckle 1, it can be tightly attached to the metal quick-release buckle 1, and the metal quick-release buckle 1 is tightly attached to the copper busbar 3. Therefore, the thermistor 2 can sense the temperature of the motor more quickly, thereby improving the speed of monitoring the motor temperature. Therefore, the setting of the metal quick-release buckle 1 can not only improve the installation efficiency of the thermistor 2, but also avoid damage to the thermistor 2 during installation, and at the same time can also improve the efficiency of monitoring the motor temperature.
