[0038] Embodiment 1: The utility model discloses a boost capacitor module assembly 1. The boost capacitor module assembly 1 provided by the present embodiment integrates a Boost capacitor, a power module 12, a copper bus and a heat dissipation part 13, improves the volume ratio of the capacitor, improves the heat dissipation effect, reduces the cost and maintains better working efficiency. For details, refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 ,include:
[0039] A boost capacitor module 11 includes a housing 111 and a first capacitor 112 and a second capacitor 113 disposed in the housing 111. The housing 111 is further provided with a plurality of capacitor copper bars 114 extending from the first capacitor 112 and the second capacitor 113.
[0040] The power module 12 (IGBT) is arranged on one side of the boost capacitor module 11 and has a plurality of extended module copper bars 121;
[0041] The heat dissipation unit 13 is arranged between the boost capacitor module 11 and the power module 12 to dissipate heat for both modules at the same time; specifically, the heat dissipation unit 13 can be set to any structure, including but not limited to a water cooling plate, a radiator group or other existing integrated components that realize heat dissipation function;
[0042] The support frame 14 is connected to the side of the shell 111 and can also extend to the side of the power module 12, so that the capacitor copper bus 114 and the module copper bus 121 are respectively extended to the support frame 14 for fixation; specifically, the support frame 14 can be vertically arranged on the side of the shell 111, so that each capacitor copper bus 114 and the module copper bus 121 are bent to the surface of the support frame 14 for fixation, which is convenient for connection.
[0043] In this embodiment, two capacitors (a first capacitor 112 and a second capacitor 113) are provided to provide a greater energy storage capacity, thereby smoothing the output voltage and reducing voltage fluctuations during the inductor charging and discharging process. Specifically, a plurality of capacitor copper bars 114 are provided, which may include capacitor copper bars (including T+ input and T- output) respectively connected to the first capacitor 112 and the second capacitor 113 to connect the module copper bar 121 (T+ input, T- output) or other modules / devices.
[0044] In this embodiment, the width of the first capacitor 112 is greater than the width of the second capacitor 113, so that the power module 12 is arranged in the width direction of the second capacitor 113 and is parallel to the first capacitor 112 in the length direction. Specifically, the width of the first capacitor 112 is set to exceed the sum of the width of the second capacitor 113 and the width of the power module 12, so that the whole forms a roughly rectangular parallelepiped structure. This arrangement can reduce the connection path between the copper bars on the one hand, and reduce the space occupied by the overall structure on the other hand. At the same time, the heat dissipation part 13 is integrated, so that the boost capacitor module 11 and the power module 12 can dissipate heat at the same time, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The specific size and arrangement can be adaptively adjusted according to the actual application scenario.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the boost capacitor module 11 is provided with a plurality of extended connection parts 15, which can be used to connect other modules or devices outside the boost capacitor module 11. For example, the connection parts 15 can be set to a plate shape with bolt holes, etc., and the specific distribution and orientation can be set according to the actual scenario.
[0046] In a preferred embodiment, the heat dissipation portion 13 completely covers the power module 12, and extends out of both ends of the power module 12 in the length direction to be fixed to the boost capacitor module 11. The heat dissipation portion 13 completely covers the surface of the power module 12, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect on the power module 12, realizing the integration of the heat dissipation portion 13, the boost capacitor module 11 and the power module 12, and effectively improving the space utilization while maintaining the heat dissipation effect.
[0047] In a preferred embodiment, specifically, the heat dissipation portion 13 is configured as a water-cooled plate; the water-cooled plate is provided with a liquid inlet and a liquid outlet (not shown in the figure) at both ends extending from the power module 12 on the side away from the boost capacitor module 11, that is, the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet are both arranged on the water-cooled plate toward the outside of the boost capacitor module assembly 1 to facilitate the entry and exit of the heat dissipation liquid. Optionally, an inclined surface can be provided near the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet to reduce the flow resistance of the heat dissipation liquid and further improve the heat dissipation effect.
[0048] In a preferred embodiment, a water storage portion 131 with an opening is provided on the water cooling plate, and the opening is closed by the outer wall of the shell 111, so that the shell 111 of the boost capacitor module constitutes a part of the side wall of the water cooling plate, thereby reducing the thermal resistance between the heat dissipation liquid and the first capacitor 112 / the second capacitor 113, and reducing the heat transfer loss. Furthermore, a sealing ring 132 surrounding the opening is provided between the water cooling plate and the shell 111, thereby reducing the risk of heat dissipation liquid flowing out and improving the safety of use.
[0049] In a preferred embodiment, at least one filter capacitor 16 may be arranged in the housing 111 of the boost capacitor module 11 to achieve a certain filtering effect and further reduce the internal inductance of the boost capacitor module 11 for application in corresponding implementation scenarios.
[0050] In this embodiment, the boost capacitor module assembly 1 integrates a boost capacitor (a first capacitor 112 and a second capacitor 113), a power module 12 and a heat dissipation part 13, and is also provided with a plurality of copper busbars and a connection part 15. The capacitor and the copper busbar are directly encapsulated in the shell 111, and the power module 12 is welded on the water cooling plate. The water cooling plate and the shell 111 are connected by bolts, and the electrical connection between the power module 12 and the capacitor is realized by the copper busbar. The integration of multiple functions and modules is realized in a smaller volume, the structure is simple, the cost is low, and it can be applied to a variety of motor control scenarios.

In an optional embodiment, the DC input filter component and the boost inductor module 23 are arranged in parallel and perpendicular to the area where the first capacitor 112 of the boost capacitor module assembly 1 is located, thereby forming an approximate T-shaped arrangement to reduce space occupancy, and can also reduce electromagnetic interference and parasitic parameters between them and other circuit elements, and can also increase the air flow path, help heat dissipation, improve mechanical stability, and reduce damage risks.
[0055] In a preferred embodiment, the boost capacitor module component 1 is also electrically connected to a DC input filter component 24, which suppresses noise and ripple in the DC power supply to ensure stable operation of the circuit. As an example, the DC input filter component 24 may include but is not limited to a capacitor filter, an inductor filter, and a multi-stage filter, etc. Specifically, the specific component arrangement can be selected according to parameters such as the ripple factor, noise level, and transient response of the DC power supply.
