[0044] In order to help those skilled in the art better understand the present invention, the following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0045] It should be noted that the terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present invention and the above-mentioned drawings are used to distinguish similar objects and are not necessarily used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchangeable where appropriate so that the embodiments of the present invention described herein can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein.

[0046] Figure 1 A schematic structural diagram of a servo joint module provided by an embodiment of the present utility model is shown in FIG. Figure 2 A cross-sectional view of a servo joint module provided by an embodiment of the present utility model. Figure 3 A three-dimensional assembly diagram of a servo joint module provided by an embodiment of the utility model, Figure 4 This is a front structural diagram of a servo driver provided by an embodiment of the utility model. Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the back structure of a servo driver provided by an embodiment of the utility model, with reference to Figure 1-5The servo joint module in the embodiment of the present invention includes a servo driver 10. The servo driver 10 includes a circuit board 11, an electronic device 12, a heat-conducting component 13, and a housing 14. The electronic device 12 and the heat-conducting component 13 are both disposed between the circuit board 11 and the housing 14, and the heat-conducting component 13 covers at least a portion of the electronic device 12. The thermal conductivity of the heat-conducting component 13 is greater than that of air.

[0047] Exemplarily, the electronic device 12 may be a main control chip (MCU), MOS tube, servo control chip, gate driver or other heat-sensitive components arranged on the circuit board 11. These heat-sensitive components generate a lot of heat and are easily damaged. They need to be heat-dissipated to control their temperature below their rated temperature. It should be noted that the rated temperature refers to the highest temperature at which the equipment or product can operate safely under normal operating conditions.

[0048] For example, the heat generated by the electronic device 12 can be conducted to the housing 14 by providing a heat-conducting component 13 between the electronic device 12 and the housing 14, thereby controlling the temperature of the electronic device 12 to be below its rated temperature. It can be understood that the larger the contact area between the heat-conducting component 13 and the electronic device 12, the higher the heat-conducting efficiency of the heat-conducting component 13. Therefore, the heat-conducting efficiency of the heat-conducting component 13 can be improved by providing the heat-conducting component 13 to completely cover the electronic device 12.

[0049] For example, the heat-conducting component 13 can be made of heat-dissipating silicone grease, which has a thermal conductivity greater than that of air. Compared to existing technologies that rely solely on air for heat dissipation, the present embodiment uses a heat-conducting component 13 with a thermal conductivity greater than that of air to conduct heat generated by the electronic device 12. This not only allows the heat generated by the heating element to be more efficiently transferred to the housing 14, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the housing 14, but also minimizes the heat generated by the heating element from being transferred to other areas of the circuit board 11.

[0050] For example, the housing 14 can be made of metal, which has better heat dissipation than housings made of other materials such as plastic and ceramic. An aluminum housing is preferred, as it not only has better heat dissipation but also has the advantages of being lightweight and low cost.

[0051] The technical solution of the embodiment of the present utility model, by arranging a heat-conducting component with a thermal conductivity coefficient greater than that of air between the electronic device and the shell, can enable the heat generated by the electronic device to be quickly conducted to the shell and dissipated to the external air through the shell, thereby avoiding damage to the electronic device due to excessive temperature, and realizing temperature protection of the electronic device in the servo joint module.

[0052] Figure 6A schematic diagram of a servo joint module provided by an embodiment of the present invention, with reference to 4 and Figure 6 The electronic device 12 includes a main control chip 121 and a driving element 122. The servo driver 10 also includes a first temperature sensor 15, which is used to detect the temperature information of the driving element 122. The first temperature sensor 15 includes a first temperature output terminal, the main control chip 121 includes a first temperature receiving terminal and a first control signal output terminal, and the driving element 122 includes a first control signal receiving terminal. The first temperature output terminal is electrically connected to the first temperature receiving terminal and is used to transmit the temperature information of the driving element 122 to the first temperature receiving terminal. The first control signal output terminal is electrically connected to the first control signal receiving terminal and is used to transmit a first drive adjustment signal to the driving element 122.

[0053] Exemplary, reference Figure 4 The driving element 122 in the embodiment of the present invention may include a gate driver 1221, and the first temperature sensor 15 may be an internal temperature sensor built into the gate driver 1221. Figure 6 The first temperature sensor 15 can transmit the detected temperature information of the gate driver 1221 to the first temperature receiving terminal of the main control chip 121 via its first temperature output terminal. The main control chip 121 can then control its first control signal output terminal to output a corresponding first drive adjustment signal to the first control signal receiving terminal of the gate driver 1221 based on the received temperature information of the gate driver 1221, thereby adjusting the operating state of the gate driver 1221. For example, when the temperature information of the gate driver 1221 exceeds its rated temperature, the main control chip 121 can respond to the gate driver 1221 by activating an alarm, outputting a low power state, or stopping operation, according to program settings, to prevent the gate driver 1221 from operating in an environment exceeding its rated temperature.

[0054] Exemplary, reference Figure 4 In the embodiment of the present invention, the driving element 122 may include a MOS tube 1222, and the first temperature sensor 15 may be an internal temperature sensor built into the MOS tube 1222. Figure 6The first temperature sensor 15 can transmit the temperature information of the MOS transistor 1222 detected by it to the first temperature receiving end of the main control chip 121 through its first temperature output end. The main control chip 121 can control its first control signal output end to output a corresponding first drive adjustment signal to the first control signal receiving end of the MOS transistor 1222 based on the received temperature information of the MOS transistor 1222, thereby adjusting the operating state of the MOS transistor 1222. For example, when the temperature information of the MOS transistor 1222 exceeds its rated temperature, the main control chip 121 can respond to the MOS transistor 1222 by activating an alarm, outputting a low power state, stopping operation, etc. according to program settings, so as to prevent the MOS transistor 1222 from operating in an environment exceeding its rated temperature.

[0055] It should be noted that the main control chip 121 also has a built-in internal temperature sensor for detecting the temperature information of the main control chip 121. The main control chip 121 can directly obtain the temperature information detected by the internal sensor and adjust the operating state of the main control chip based on the temperature information. For example, when the temperature information of the main control chip 121 exceeds its rated temperature, the main control chip 121 can, according to program settings, initiate an alarm, output a low power state, or stop operation for the main control chip 121 and other devices controlled by the main control chip 121 to prevent the main control chip 121 from operating in an environment exceeding its rated temperature.

[0056] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the electronic device 12 includes a main control chip 121 and a servo control chip 123. The servo joint module also includes a motor 20 and a second temperature sensor 30, and the second temperature sensor 30 is used to detect the temperature information of the motor 20. The second temperature sensor 30 includes a second temperature output end, the main control chip 121 includes a second temperature receiving end and a second control signal output end, the servo control chip 123 includes a second control signal receiving end and a first drive signal output end, and the motor 20 includes a first drive signal receiving end. The second temperature output end is electrically connected to the second temperature receiving end for transmitting the temperature information of the motor 20 to the second temperature receiving end. The second control signal output end is electrically connected to the second control signal receiving end for transmitting a drive control adjustment signal to the servo control chip 123. The first drive signal output end is electrically connected to the first drive signal receiving end for transmitting a second drive adjustment signal to the first drive signal receiving end.

[0057] For example, the second temperature sensor 30 may be provided in the winding of the motor 20 and may detect the temperature information of the motor 20. Figure 6The second temperature sensor 30 can transmit the detected temperature information of the motor 20 to the second temperature receiving terminal of the main control chip 121 through its second temperature output terminal. The main control chip 121 can control its second control signal output terminal to output a corresponding drive control adjustment signal to the second control signal receiving terminal of the servo control chip 123 based on the received temperature information of the motor 20. The servo control chip 123 can control its first drive signal output terminal to output a corresponding second drive adjustment signal to the first drive signal receiving terminal of the motor 20 based on the received drive control adjustment signal, thereby adjusting the working state of the motor 20. For example, when the temperature information of the motor 20 exceeds its rated temperature, the main control chip 121 can respond to the motor 20 by activating an alarm, outputting a low power state, stopping operation, etc. according to program settings to prevent the motor 20 from operating in an environment exceeding its rated temperature.

[0058] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 6 , the electronic device 12 includes a main control chip 121 and a servo control chip 123. The servo joint module also includes a motor 20 and a torque sensor 40, and the torque sensor 40 is used to detect the torque information of the motor 20. The torque sensor 40 includes a torque output end, the main control chip 121 includes a torque receiving end and a third control signal output end, the servo control chip 123 includes a third control signal receiving end and a second drive signal output end, and the motor 20 includes a second drive signal receiving end. The torque output end is electrically connected to the torque receiving end for transmitting the torque information of the motor 20 to the torque receiving end. The third control signal output end is electrically connected to the third control signal receiving end for transmitting a torque control adjustment signal to the servo control chip 123. The second drive signal output end is electrically connected to the second drive signal receiving end for transmitting a third drive adjustment signal to the second drive signal receiving end.

[0059] For example, the torque sensor 40 can be provided on the output flange of the motor 20 to detect the torque information of the motor 20. Figure 6The torque sensor 40 can transmit the torque information of the motor 20 detected by it to the torque receiving end of the main control chip 121 through its torque output end. The main control chip 121 can control its third control signal output end to output a corresponding torque control adjustment signal to the third control signal receiving end of the servo control chip 123 based on the received torque information of the motor 20. The servo control chip 123 can control its second drive signal output end to output a corresponding third drive adjustment signal to the second drive signal receiving end of the motor 20 based on the received torque control adjustment signal, thereby adjusting the working state of the motor 20. For example, when the torque information of the motor 20 exceeds the preset torque, the main control chip 121 can respond to the motor 20 by activating an alarm, outputting a low power state, stopping the operation, etc. according to the program settings to prevent the torque information of the motor 20 from exceeding the preset torque. It should be noted that the above-mentioned preset torque can be the rated torque. The rated torque refers to the torque that the motor can continuously output under normal working conditions. It is usually the torque of the optimal operating state measured under rated power and speed conditions. Torque exceeding the rated torque will cause the motor to overload and may even cause motor damage or other failures.

[0060] refer to Figure 2 、 Figure 3 、 Figure 5 and Figure 6 The servo joint module also includes a magnetic encoder 50 and a motor 20. The magnetic encoder 50 includes a magnetic code disk 51 and a magnetic encoder reader 52. The magnetic code disk 51 is mounted on the motor 20, and the magnetic encoder reader 52 is mounted on the circuit board 11. The electronic device 12 includes a main control chip 121 and a servo control chip 123. The magnetic code disk 51 includes a magnetic field signal output terminal, the magnetic encoder reader 52 includes a magnetic field signal receiving terminal and a position signal output terminal, the main control chip 121 includes a position signal receiving terminal and a fourth control signal output terminal, the servo control chip 123 includes a fourth control signal receiving terminal and a third drive signal output terminal, and the motor 20 includes a third drive signal receiving terminal. The magnetic field signal output terminal is coupled to the magnetic field signal receiving terminal and is configured to transmit a magnetic field signal based on the position information of the motor 20 to the magnetic field signal receiving terminal. The position signal output terminal is electrically connected to the position signal receiving terminal and is configured to transmit the position signal of the motor 20 to the position signal receiving terminal. The fourth control signal output terminal is electrically connected to the fourth control signal receiving terminal and is configured to transmit a position control adjustment signal to the servo control chip 123. The third driving signal output end is electrically connected to the third driving signal receiving end, and is used to transmit a position adjustment signal to the third driving signal receiving end.

[0061] For example, the magnetic encoder read head 52 is adapted to the magnetic code disk 51 and can support multi-turn counting. Figure 6The magnetic code disk 51 fixed on the rotor of the electrode 20 can transmit the magnetic field signal based on the position information of the motor 20 sensed by it to the magnetic field signal receiving end of the magnetic encoder reader 52 through its magnetic field signal output end. Specifically, the magnetic code disk 51 is usually made of ferromagnetic material and has a series of magnetic poles. These magnetic poles are arranged in a specific pattern, which can be a periodic magnetic pole array or a continuous magnetic strip. When the magnetic code disk rotates or moves, the magnetic poles on it will change their positions accordingly, thereby changing the surrounding magnetic field distribution. The magnetic encoder reader 52 is fixed on the circuit board 11 and is relatively closely aligned with the magnetic code disk 51. It is responsible for capturing the magnetic field changes around the magnetic code disk 51, that is, the magnetic field signal based on the position information of the motor 20.

[0062] The magnetic encoder reader 52 can control its position signal output terminal to output the corresponding position information to the position signal receiving terminal of the main control chip 121 based on the received magnetic field signal based on the position information of the motor 20. The main control chip 121 can control its fourth control signal output terminal to output the corresponding position control adjustment signal to the fourth control signal receiving terminal of the servo control chip 123 based on the received position information. The servo control chip 123 can control its third drive signal output terminal to output the corresponding position adjustment signal to the third drive signal receiving terminal of the motor 20 based on the received position control adjustment signal, thereby adjusting the operating state of the motor 20. For example, when the position information of the motor 20 exceeds a preset position, the main control chip 121 can respond to the motor 20 by activating an alarm, outputting a low power state, or stopping the motor 20 according to program settings to prevent the position information of the motor 20 from exceeding the preset position.

[0063] refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The circuit board 11 includes a first surface 111 and a second surface 112 that are opposite to each other. The electronic device 12 is disposed on the first surface 111 , and the magnetic encoder read head 52 is disposed on the second surface 112 .

[0064] Exemplary, reference Figure 4 and Figure 5Heat-sensitive components such as the main control chip 121, gate driver 1221, MOS transistor 1222, and servo control chip 123 are all disposed on the first surface 111. The main control chip 121 is connected to the housing 14 via a first heat-conducting component 131, the gate driver 1221 is connected to the housing 14 via a second heat-conducting component 132, the MOS transistor 1222 is connected to the housing 14 via a third heat-conducting component 133, and the servo control chip 123 is connected to the housing 14 via a fourth heat-conducting component 134. The magnetic encoder head 52 is disposed on the second surface 112, away from the heat-sensitive components. Most of the heat generated by these components is conducted to the housing 14 via the heat-conducting component 13. Therefore, the heat generated by these components is substantially not conducted to the magnetic encoder head 52, thus preventing data drift caused by overheating of the magnetic encoder head 52. This helps to improve the signal acquisition accuracy of the magnetic encoder head 52 and its operational stability in high-temperature environments.

[0065] refer to Figure 5 The second surface 112 of the circuit board 11 is also equipped with other components. It should be noted that compared to heat-sensitive components such as the main control chip 121, gate driver 1221, MOS transistor 1222, and servo control chip 123, the components on the second surface 112 are not heat-sensitive and can be cooled normally through air. To maintain the magnetic encoder read head 52 within the optimal operating temperature range, the present embodiment places these components as far away from the magnetic encoder read head 52 as possible.

[0066] Optionally, the distance D1 between the magnetic code disk 51 and the magnetic encoder reading head 52 satisfies 0.3 mm ≤ D1 ≤ 0.7 mm.

[0067] It is understandable that the distance D1 between the magnetic code disk 51 and the magnetic encoder reader 52 will affect the detection accuracy of the magnetic encoder 50. By setting the distance D1 between the magnetic code disk 51 and the magnetic encoder reader 52 to satisfy 0.3mm≤D1≤0.7mm, the magnetic field changes around the magnetic code disk 51 can be sensed by the magnetic encoder reader 52 and converted into accurate position information.

[0068] refer to Figure 4-6 The circuit board 11 further includes a through hole 113 extending through the circuit board 11. The servo joint module further includes a motor 20 and a sensor. At least one of the motor 20, the sensor, and the master controller is electrically connected to the servo driver 10 via a signal transmission line S1 extending through the through hole 113.

[0069] In the prior art, the wiring between the servo driver and the motor, sensor, and headquarters controller is routed sideways, which increases the difficulty of wiring. In this embodiment, a through hole 113 is provided on the circuit board 11, which penetrates the circuit board 11. The signal transmission line S1 connecting the servo driver and the motor, sensor, and headquarters controller can pass through the through hole 113, replacing the existing side wiring and helping to reduce the difficulty of wiring.

[0070] refer to Figure 6 The sensor includes a second temperature sensor 30 and a torque sensor 40. The signal transmission line S1 includes a second temperature signal transmission line S11, a torque signal transmission line S12, a first drive signal transmission line S13, a second drive signal transmission line S14, a third drive signal transmission line S15, and a communication signal transmission line S16. The electronic device 12 includes a main control chip 121 and a servo control chip 123. The second temperature signal transmission line S11 electrically connects the second temperature sensor 30 and the main control chip 121, and the first drive signal transmission line S13 electrically connects the servo control chip 123 and the motor 20. The torque signal transmission line S12 electrically connects the torque sensor 40 and the main control chip 121, and the second drive signal transmission line S14 electrically connects the servo control chip 123 and the motor 20.
