The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.
[0028] In the related technology, when the film capacitor of the motor controller on the market is connected to the copper busbar of the power module, nuts are welded inside the copper busbar and then fixed on the outside with bolts. This connection method has extremely high requirements on the size matching of the two components, is difficult to process, and is prone to cause a high defect rate.
[0029] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 4 A motor controller according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.
[0030] According to the utility model, the motor controller 100 includes: a thin film capacitor 11, a power module 12 and a fastener. A connecting shell 21 is formed on the thin film capacitor 11, and a accommodating cavity is formed inside the connecting shell 21; a connecting row 22 is formed on the power module 12, and the connecting row 22 is opposite to the connecting shell 21 in the thickness direction; at least part of the fastener is accommodated in the accommodating cavity and the fastener is spaced apart from the inner wall of the accommodating cavity so as to be suitable for relative movement in the horizontal direction of the thickness direction of the connecting shell 21.
[0031] In some specific embodiments, the motor controller 100 is composed of a thin film capacitor 11, a power module 12 and a fastener. A connecting shell 21 is formed at the edge of the thin film capacitor 11, and a receiving cavity for accommodating at least part of the fastener is formed inside the connecting shell 21. A connecting row 22 is formed on the power module 12, and at least another part of the fastener can pass through the connecting row 22 and the connecting shell 21 respectively and fix the connecting row 22 and the connecting shell 21 together, thereby realizing the connection between the power module 12 and the thin film capacitor 11. At least part of the fasteners are spaced apart from the inner wall of the receiving cavity, so that there is a certain gap between at least part of the fasteners and the inner wall of the receiving cavity. At least part of the fasteners can move relative to each other for a certain distance in the thickness direction and horizontal direction of the connecting shell 21 in the receiving cavity, thereby reducing the difficulty of matching between the fasteners, the connecting shell 21 and the connecting row 22, reducing the difficulty of assembling the connecting row 22 and the connecting shell 21, and improving the accuracy and assembly efficiency of the connection between the power module 12 and the thin film capacitor 11.
[0032] According to the motor controller 100 of the utility model, a receiving cavity for accommodating at least part of the fasteners is formed inside the connecting shell 21, and a connecting row 22 is formed on the power module 12. At least part of the fasteners can pass through the connecting row 22 and the connecting shell 21 respectively and fix the connecting row 22 and the connecting shell 21 together. At least part of the fasteners are spaced apart from the inner wall of the receiving cavity, so that at least part of the fasteners can move relatively for a certain distance in the thickness direction and horizontal direction of the connecting shell 21 in the receiving cavity, thereby reducing the difficulty of matching the fasteners, the connecting shell 21 and the connecting row 22, reducing the difficulty of assembling the connecting row 22 and the connecting shell 21, and improving the connection accuracy and assembly efficiency between the power module 12 and the thin film capacitor 11.
[0033] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the connection shells 21 are configured to be multiple and arranged on the same side edge of the film capacitor 11 , and the connection row 22 is configured to be multiple and corresponds one-to-one to the multiple connection shells 21 .
[0034] In some specific embodiments, a plurality of connecting shells 21 are formed at the edge of one side opposite to the connecting row 22 of the thin film capacitor 11 and the power module 12, and the connecting row 22 is constructed to correspond one to one to the plurality of connecting shells 21, so that during the assembly process of the connecting row 22 of the thin film capacitor 11 and the power module 12, each connecting shell 21 and the corresponding connecting row 22 can be independently installed and adjusted, which is convenient for precise alignment and tightening, thereby reducing the assembly complexity of the connecting shells 21 and the connecting rows 22. At the same time, when maintaining the equipment or replacing faulty parts, a connecting shell 21 and a connecting row 22 with a failed connection can also be dealt with in a targeted manner without affecting the normal connection of other connecting pieces and the connecting shell 21. In addition, the connection of multiple connecting shells 21 and multiple connecting rows 22 can increase the connection points between the thin film capacitor 11 and the power module 12, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the connection between the thin film capacitor 11 and the power module 12.
[0035] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the cross-section of the accommodating cavity is constructed as a polygon. The polygonal construction of the accommodating cavity can set limits for the range of movement of the fastener. By matching the shape of the fastener with that of the accommodating cavity, the rotation angle or movement range of the fastener can be limited in a specific direction, ensuring that the fastener maintains the correct posture and position during the fastening process, and can effectively prevent the fastener from excessive rotation or disengagement, thereby improving the accuracy of assembly of the connecting shell 21 and the connecting row 22. At the same time, each side of the polygonal accommodating cavity can serve as a supporting surface for the fastener, which can effectively prevent the fastener from unnecessary tilting or shaking when it moves at a small angle, thereby enhancing the stability of the fastener during the assembly process.
[0036] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the fastener includes: a nut 23 and a bolt, the nut 23 is accommodated in the accommodating cavity; the bolt passes through the connecting shell 21 and is respectively fixed to the nut 23 and the connecting row 22; wherein the outer peripheral surface of the nut 23 forms a limiting wall, and the limiting wall is suitable for abutting against the inner wall of the accommodating cavity.
[0037] In some specific embodiments, the fastener consists of a nut 23 and a bolt. The nut 23 can be movably arranged in a small range in the accommodating cavity to facilitate alignment of the nut 23 with the bolt. The bolt passes through the connecting shell 21 and is fixed to the nut 23. The bolt and nut 23 cooperate to fix the connecting shell 21 and the connecting row 22 together, thereby realizing the connection between the thin film capacitor 11 and the power module 12. The outer peripheral surface of the nut 23 forms a limiting wall. During the assembly of the nut 23 and the bolt, the nut 23 can move in a small range and rotate a certain angle to facilitate the connection between the bolt and the nut 23. The limiting wall abuts against the inner wall of the accommodating cavity to limit the rotation angle of the nut 23 in the accommodating cavity, thereby ensuring the stability of the nut 23 and the bolt during the assembly process and ensuring the smooth connection between the nut 23 and the bolt.
[0038] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the outer surface of the nut 23 is provided with a plurality of limiting walls connected in sequence, and an arc transition surface 231 is provided between two adjacent limiting walls. The arc transition surface 231 can reduce the friction and wear between the nut 23 and the inner wall of the accommodating cavity during the assembly process, so that the nut 23 can float more smoothly, avoiding the nut 23 scratching the inner wall of the accommodating cavity during the floating process, extending the service life of the nut 23 and the accommodating cavity, and reducing the noise during the assembly process of the power module 12 and the thin film capacitor 11.
[0039] According to some embodiments of the utility model, the diameter of the maximum circumscribed circle of the inner wall of the accommodating cavity is d1, the diameter of the minimum inscribed circle is d2, the diameter of the maximum circumscribed circle of the outer surface of the nut 23 is d3, and satisfies: d1>d3>d2. When the diameter of the maximum circumscribed circle of the outer surface of the nut 23 is within the above range, the nut 23 can be rotated a certain angle in the accommodating cavity, and the nut 23 can be prevented from rotating 360° in the accommodating cavity, thereby ensuring the stability and reliability of the nut 23 and the bolt during assembly.
[0040] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the connecting shell 21 includes: a bottom plate and a side plate, wherein a through hole suitable for bolts to pass through is formed on the bottom plate; and the side plate is arranged on the outer periphery of the bottom plate and defines a receiving cavity with the bottom plate.
[0041] In some specific embodiments, the connecting shell 21 is composed of a bottom plate and side plates. The side plates are arranged on the periphery of the bottom plate. The side plates and the bottom plate jointly define an accommodating cavity. The nut 23 is arranged in the accommodating cavity. There is a certain small gap between the bottom plate and the side plates and the nut 23 respectively. While ensuring that the nut 23 moves in the accommodating cavity, the bottom plate and the side plates can also play a role in blocking the movement, preventing the nut 23 from escaping from the accommodating cavity, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the nut 23 in the accommodating cavity. A through hole is formed on the bottom plate, and the bolt can pass through the through hole to connect with the nut 23, thereby realizing the connection between the bolt and the nut 23.
[0042] According to some embodiments of the utility model, a mounting hole 101 suitable for cooperating with a bolt is provided on the nut 23, the diameter of the mounting hole 101 is d4, the diameter of the through hole is d5 and satisfies: d4<d5<d3, and the diameter of the through hole is set within the above range, so that the through hole can allow the bolt to be fully inserted into the mounting hole 101 of the nut 23, ensuring the correct and stable assembly of the bolt and the nut 23, and can also ensure that the nut 23 cannot easily slip out of the through hole before it is completely fixed, and the relative setting position of the nut 23 can remain unchanged even during the operation of the motor controller 100 or during slight vibration, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the nut 23 in the accommodating cavity.
[0043] According to some embodiments of the present invention, a guide section is formed at the end of the bolt, and the diameter of the guide section gradually decreases in the direction toward the free end. The guide section can help the bolt to be more easily aligned with the mounting hole 101 of the nut 23, especially when at least part of the inner through-hole edge of the mounting hole 101 of the nut 23 is blocked, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the bolt and the nut 23. The guide section with a gradually decreasing diameter acts as a natural guiding device, so that the bolt can be smoothly inserted into the target position set on the nut 23, reducing the resistance and possibility of misalignment during the assembly of the bolt and the nut 23, and improving the assembly accuracy and reliability of the film capacitor 11 and the power module 12. At the same time, by gradually guiding the bolt to extend into the mounting hole 101 of the nut 23 by the guide section, it can also be ensured that the bolt is gradually axially aligned during the tightening process, avoiding inaccurate assembly or thread damage caused by initial misalignment, thereby improving the overall assembly accuracy and efficiency.
