[0034] Various embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In each of the accompanying drawings, identical elements are represented by identical or similar reference numerals. For the sake of clarity, the various parts in the accompanying drawings are not drawn to scale.

[0035] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0036] Figure 1 A cross-sectional view of the packaging structure of the first embodiment of the present invention is shown; the packaging structure includes a bottom plate 110, an interconnection layer 120, a shell 130, a substrate 140, an encapsulation body 150 and a cover plate 160, wherein the bottom plate 110 is made of a metal material such as aluminum, and the bottom plate 110 can be used as a heat sink. The lower surface of the bottom plate 110 is provided with fins to increase the heat dissipation area. The shell 130 and the substrate 140 are both located on the upper surface of the bottom plate 110. In order to enhance the connection strength, the upper surface of the bottom plate 110 is further provided with an interconnection layer 120. The size of the interconnection layer 120 is matched with the upper surface of the bottom plate 110, and the shell 130 and The substrate 140 is located on the interconnection layer 120, and the shell 130 includes, for example, multiple side walls to form a closed annular structure. The shell 130 is arranged around the substrate 140; specifically, the shell 130 is, for example, rectangular, including opposite first and second side walls, and opposite third and fourth side walls. The substrate 140 is located in the shell 130, and the substrate 140 is, for example, a copper-clad ceramic substrate. The upper and lower surfaces of the substrate 140 both have a copper conductive layer. An integrated circuit 141 is also provided on the upper surface of the substrate 140. The integrated circuit 141 includes, for example, an IGBT, an FRD, a MOSFET, a driver chip, etc. The encapsulation body 150 is filled in the shell 130, and the encapsulation body 150 covers the substrate 140, the integrated circuit 141 and the related bonding wires of the integrated circuit 141 and / or the substrate 140. A cover plate 160 is also arranged above the encapsulation body 150. The cover plate 160 is matched with the shell 130, for example, and the cover plate 160 is embedded in the shell 130. Specifically, the inner side surfaces of at least two opposite side walls of the shell 130 are provided with buckles 131, and the cover plate 160 has a bayonet that matches the buckle 131. The cover plate 160 is fixedly connected to the shell 130 by the cooperation between the buckle 131 and the bayonet. In the packaging structure of the first embodiment, the connection between the cover plate 160 and the shell 130 is achieved by snapping, and the enclosure 150 also fills the cavity surrounded by the cover plate 160, the shell 130 and the base plate 110, thereby increasing the contact area (interconnection area) between the shell 130 and the enclosure 150, increasing the connection strength, reducing the risk of delamination, reducing the risk of external gas damaging the substrate 140 along the gas intrusion path indicated by the arrow in the figure, and improving the reliability of devices using the packaging structure.

[0037] The encapsulation body 150 may, for example, include multiple encapsulation layer structures, or may be formed from only one encapsulation material. For example, the encapsulation body 150 may be formed using silicone gel potting, liquid epoxy resin potting, or epoxy resin and silicone gel layer potting. Of course, the encapsulation body 150 may also be formed using methods such as injection molding.

[0038] In order to clearly illustrate the structure of the buckle 131 and the base plate 140, Figure 2 The cover plate 160 and the encapsulation body 150 are omitted. Figure 2 As shown, the buckle 131 is, for example, arranged on the inner wall of the shell 130, and the clamping part at the top thereof is, for example, higher than the shell 130. A plurality of integrated circuits 141 are, for example, arranged on the substrate 140. Different base islands of the substrate 140, integrated circuits 141 and integrated circuits 141, and integrated circuits 141 and the substrate 140 are connected, for example, by bonding wires 142. Furthermore, the packaging structure is, for example, a packaging structure of a power module, and a connecting terminal 143 of the integrated circuit perpendicular to the substrate 140 is also provided on the packaging structure. Accordingly, a through hole corresponding to the connecting terminal 143 is provided on the cover plate 160, and the top of the connecting terminal 143 at least partially passes through the through hole of the cover plate 160.

[0039] Figure 3 A cross-sectional view of the packaging structure of the second embodiment of the present invention is shown; the packaging structure of the second embodiment is Figure 1 The packaging structure of the first embodiment shown is similar, except that in the packaging structure of the second embodiment, a groove 132 is provided on the inner side wall of the shell 130. To ensure the strength of the shell 130, the depth of the groove 132 does not exceed 70% of the shell thickness. By providing the groove 132, the gas intrusion path indicated by the arrow is significantly longer than that of the first embodiment. Figure 3 The cross-section of the middle groove 132 is rectangular, but it can also be curved, semicircular, polygonal, or other shapes as needed. This groove 132 not only extends the path for gas intrusion but also compensates for the volume shrinkage of the encapsulation 150 during its formation (including but not limited to methods such as potting and injection molding). This allows the encapsulation 150 to be embedded in the groove, further enhancing the connection strength and reducing the risk of delamination.

[0040] Figure 4 A cross-sectional view of the packaging structure of the third embodiment of the present invention is shown. The packaging structure of the third embodiment is similar to that of the second embodiment, except that, in the packaging structure of the third embodiment, two grooves 132 are provided on the same side wall of the housing 130. The two grooves are parallel to each other and located at different heights of the side wall of the housing 130. The cross-sections of the two grooves 132 are, for example, rectangular. Compared to the second embodiment, increasing the number of grooves 132 further extends the intrusion path of external gas, thereby enhancing the anti-sulfurization effect of the packaging structure. Of course, more grooves can be provided as needed, and the cross-sectional shapes of the different grooves can be the same or different. A combination of multiple grooves can achieve a better anti-sulfurization effect.

[0041] Figure 5A cross-sectional view of the packaging structure of the fourth embodiment of the present invention is shown; the fourth embodiment is similar to the first embodiment, except that in the fourth embodiment, a baffle 133 is provided at a position corresponding to the shell 130 and the buckle 131, the top surface of the encapsulation body 150 is higher than the root of the buckle 131, and the gap between the longitudinal portion of the buckle 131 and the inner side wall of the shell 130 is small. In the process of forming the encapsulation body 150 by the encapsulation material, the area near the buckle 131 is insufficiently filled in the gap between the buckle 131 and the shell 130 due to the effect of surface tension, such as Figure 6 As shown, the baffle 133 is, for example, disposed around the buckle 131. By isolating the buckle 131 from the enclosure 150 by the baffle 133, the aforementioned problem can be effectively avoided, and the risk of delamination can be reduced. The baffle 133 is, for example, an integral structure with the housing 130. The baffle 133 can also reduce the amount of encapsulating material used to form the enclosure 150, thereby reducing costs.

[0042] Figure 7 and Figure 8 The following are a cross-sectional view and a schematic diagram of the packaging structure of the fifth embodiment of the present invention. The packaging structure of the fifth embodiment is different from that of the fourth embodiment in that, on the basis of the fourth embodiment, a groove 132 is further provided at the contact point between the inner side wall of the shell 130 and the encapsulation body 150. The groove 132 extends laterally along the inner side wall of the shell 130, so that the intrusion path of external gas is extended as a whole on the inner side of the side wall of the shell 130. Figure 8 As shown, groove 132 is staggered from baffle 133. When groove 132 and baffle 133 are located at the same height on the sidewall of outer shell 130, groove 132 is interrupted at baffle 133 to prevent groove 132 from interfering with baffle 133. Of course, groove 132 can also be positioned lower than baffle 133 and staggered longitudinally from baffle 133. Furthermore, depending on needs and practical circumstances, groove 132 can be provided on the inner sides of all sidewalls of outer shell 130, or only on the inner sides of some sidewalls. Grooves 132 can extend laterally in a straight line, or in other patterns such as a wavy line. Of course, grooves 132 can also be provided in segments.

[0043] This packaging structure is not only compact in structure, but also increases the contact area (interconnection area) between the shell and the enclosure, reduces the risk of delamination, and increases the connection strength; through the groove design on the inner wall of the shell, the path for external gas invasion is extended, thereby enhancing the anti-sulfurization effect. Furthermore, the groove can also compensate for the cooling shrinkage of the enclosure during the formation process of the enclosure (including but not limited to glue filling, injection molding, etc.), so that the enclosure has a structure embedded in the groove, further enhancing the connection strength and reducing the risk of delamination. In the case where the top surface of the enclosure is higher than the root of the buckle, a baffle is also provided for the buckle to avoid the problem of insufficient filling of the gap between the buckle and the shell by the encapsulation material due to the influence of surface tension. The packaging structure provided by the utility model has an excellent anti-sulfurization effect and can be better applied in harsh application scenarios such as offshore wind power, papermaking, mining, rubber, etc.
