Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of capacitors. Background Art

[0002] With the rapid development of power electronics technology, metallized film capacitors have been widely used in the field of new energy vehicles. However, with the continuous improvement of power density requirements in the field of new energy vehicles, the current resistance requirements of film capacitors are increasing. Moreover, in hybrid vehicles, the ambient temperature of film capacitors in the controller is more stringent, which puts higher requirements on the heat dissipation structure of film capacitors. The traditional film capacitor structure is gradually unable to meet the requirements.

[0003] In the related art, the metallized film capacitor includes a packaging shell, a capacitor core, an extraction electrode and a sealant; the capacitor core includes a plate, a dielectric and a metal layer sprayed on the two end faces of the plate, and the capacitor core is arranged in the packaging shell; the sealant is encapsulated in the packaging shell to fix the capacitor core, and the sealant is usually epoxy resin; the extraction electrode is connected to the capacitor core and is led out of the packaging shell, and the extraction electrode is generally a lead, a welding piece or a busbar. In the structure of the film capacitor, when the packaging shell is close to the waterway or the shell for cooling, due to the poor thermal conductivity outside the package, the internal heat is difficult to dissipate through the outside of the package, resulting in a high temperature of the capacitor core and the extraction electrode, which makes the current resistance ability low and is not suitable for hybrid vehicles.

[0004] In order to improve the heat dissipation performance of metallized film capacitors, relevant technologies disclose metallized film capacitors with cooling surfaces, including a packaging shell, a capacitor core, a lead electrode, a sealant and a heat sink; the capacitor core includes a plate, a dielectric and a metal layer sprayed on the two end faces of the plate, and the capacitor core is arranged in the packaging shell; the sealant is encapsulated in the packaging shell to fix the capacitor core, and the sealant is usually epoxy resin; the lead electrode is connected to the capacitor core and led out of the packaging shell, and the lead electrode is generally a lead, a welding piece or a busbar; the heat sink is bonded to the packaging shell or to the water channel, the heat sink is an aluminum plate, and the heat sink serves as a cooling surface. When the film capacitor with a cooling surface is cooled by placing the packaging shell close to a water channel or a shell, the current resistance capacity is improved compared to the traditional design due to the good thermal conductivity of the heat sink. However, since it is necessary to consider the risk of poor insulation caused by interference between the internal solder joints of the capacitor and the heat sink, it is necessary to ensure a large gap between the copper busbar and the heat sink. However, due to the large gap between the copper busbar and the heat sink, the thermal conductivity of the filling resin is poor, and the heat dissipation of the copper busbar is still insufficient under high current conditions. Utility Model Content

[0005] The utility model aims to solve one of the technical problems in the above-mentioned technology at least to a certain extent. To this end, one purpose of the utility model is to provide a capacitor to improve the heat dissipation performance of the capacitor, thereby improving the current resistance of the capacitor.

[0006] In order to achieve the above-mentioned object, the embodiment of the utility model provides a capacitor, comprising:

[0011] A lead-out electrode is connected to the capacitor core and led out of the packaging shell, the lead-out electrode includes a solder point area connected to the capacitor core, the distance between the solder point area and the heat sink is greater than the distance between the non-solder point area of ​​the lead-out electrode and the heat sink, that is, the solder point area and the non-solder point area are bent and connected and are located in different planes.

[0012] According to a capacitor of an embodiment of the utility model, since the lead-out electrode includes a solder point area connected to the capacitor core, the distance between the solder point area and the heat sink is greater than the distance between the non-solder point area of ​​the lead-out electrode and the heat sink, the solder point area needs to consider the risk of poor insulation caused by interference with the heat sink, and the gap between the solder point area and the heat sink is larger, while the gap between the non-solder point area and the heat sink is smaller, that is, the non-solder point area is closer to the heat sink to enhance the heat dissipation performance of the lead-out electrode. Therefore, the utility model can improve the heat dissipation performance of the capacitor, thereby improving the current resistance of the capacitor.
