Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of frequency converters, and in particular relates to a high-power water-cooled integrated bypass power unit. Background Art
[0002] As a core component of the inverter, the power cell module is crucial for its proper operation. To prevent module failure and ensure the normal operation of the inverter, a power cell bypass module is required. When a power cell fails, the bypass module activates and removes the faulty power cell from the circuit, allowing current to bypass the power cell and continue flowing through the bypass channel without affecting overall system operation. Meanwhile, other functioning power cells continue to transmit and convert power, maintaining system output performance. The structure, size, and safe and stable operation of high-power power cell modules integrated with the bypass module are crucial issues.
[0003] Currently, water cooling is the primary method for dissipating heat in high-power power units. Due to their high voltage and heat generation, existing high-power water-cooled power units are often designed with a rectifier module, inverter module, capacitor module, and other components. The bypass module is used as an independent module in conjunction with the power unit module. This design not only has disadvantages such as large size and high manufacturing cost, but also results in a correspondingly large power cabinet, resulting in high manufacturing cost and difficulty in transportation. The connection between the bypass module and the power unit is also very difficult, and consideration must also be given to the insulation between the connection point and other connecting copper bars, as well as between the connection point and the cabinet frame. Summary of the Invention
[0004] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a high-power water-cooled integrated bypass power unit, which splits the power unit of the high-voltage inverter into two independent functional boxes, and integrates the rectifier module, inverter module and bypass module into a multifunctional box. This split power unit structure has the advantages of strong scalability, easy maintenance, compact structure, safety and stability.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention is implemented through the following technical solutions:
[0006] A high-power water-cooled integrated bypass power unit includes a rectifier-inverter-bypass integrated module, a capacitor module, and a capacitor laminated composite busbar. The rectifier-inverter-bypass integrated module and the capacitor module are electrically connected via the capacitor laminated composite busbar. Both the rectifier-inverter-bypass integrated module and the capacitor module are box-type structures, and the capacitor module and the rectifier-inverter-bypass integrated module are arranged side by side. A water inlet is provided at the bottom of the rectifier-inverter-bypass integrated module and a water outlet is provided at the top, which are used for circulating cooling water and dissipating heat in the rectifier-inverter-bypass integrated module.
[0007] The rectifier-inverter bypass integrated module includes an integrated module box, a water-cooled plate assembly, a drive plate assembly, a bypass contactor assembly, a composite busbar, a fuse, a transformer assembly, an IGBT module, a temperature-controlled switch, a rectifier bridge, a bypass busbar 1, a bypass busbar 2, and an output copper busbar. The water-cooled plate assembly is fixed in the rectifier-inverter box, and the electrical components in the water-cooled plate assembly are electrically connected to the fuse through the composite busbar; the drive plate assembly is fixedly connected to the rectifier-inverter box, and the drive plate assembly is electrically connected to the transformer assembly, the IGBT module, the temperature-controlled switch, and the fuse through cables; the IGBT module, the temperature-controlled switch, and the rectifier bridge are fixedly connected to the water-cooled plate assembly; the bypass contactor assembly is electrically connected to the output copper busbar through the bypass busbar 1, the bypass busbar 2, and bolts, and the composite busbar is electrically connected to the capacitor stack composite busbar.
[0008] The water-cooling plate assembly includes a water inlet, a water outlet, and a water-cooling plate. The water-cooling plate is fixedly connected to the IGBT module, the temperature control switch, and the rectifier bridge by bolts. The upper and lower ends of the side of the water-cooling plate are respectively connected to the water outlet and the water inlet.
[0009] The water cooling plate is assembled and fixed on the front lower part of the integrated module box.
[0010] The driving board is assembled and fixed on the upper front end of the integrated module box.
[0011] The front end of the integrated module box is fixedly connected with a handle.
[0012] The capacitor module includes a capacitor module box, a connecting column, and a capacitor. A connecting column is fixed in the middle of the front end of the capacitor module box for connecting to the capacitor stack busbar; the capacitor is encapsulated in the capacitor module box; the capacitor is electrically connected to the capacitor stack busbar through the connecting column.
[0013] The front end of the capacitor module box is fixedly connected with a handle.
[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0015] 1. The utility model has a compact structure and adopts an integrated design, which reduces the volume, is easy to maintain, has strong environmental adaptability, and is lower in cost than conventional water-cooled variable frequency power units.
[0016] 2. This utility model divides the power unit into two independent boxes, modifying the internal configuration. The rectifier module, inverter module, and bypass module are integrated into the same box, equipped with a water-cooled plate assembly. The capacitor module is housed in another box, significantly reducing the overall volume. Simultaneously, by modifying the internal configuration of the integrated rectifier, inverter, and bypass module and increasing or decreasing the number of capacitors in the capacitor module, the design power of the power unit can be increased or decreased, resulting in greater scalability and consistency.
[0017] 3. The rectifier-inverter-bypass integrated module and the capacitor module of the present invention are electrically connected via a capacitor stack busbar. When any of the modules fails, the failed module can be removed for maintenance simply by removing the capacitor stack busbar. This facilitates disassembly and maintenance of the power unit because the weight of a single module is much lighter than that of the entire power unit.
[0018] 4. When the utility model is installed on the power cabinet, the water inlets and outlets of the rectifier, inverter and bypass integrated module are connected in parallel to achieve cooling and heat dissipation, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the rectifier, inverter and bypass integrated module.

The water-cooled plate assembly 10 is fixed to the lower front end of the integrated module box 1.
