DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0037] 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 some embodiments of the present invention, not all embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and is in no way intended to limit the present invention and its application or use. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0038] It should be noted that the terms used herein are only for describing specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the exemplary embodiments according to the present application. As used herein, unless the context clearly indicates otherwise, the singular form is also intended to include the plural form. In addition, it should be understood that when the terms "comprise" and / or "include" are used in this specification, they indicate the presence of features, steps, operations, devices, components and / or combinations thereof.

[0039] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of the parts and steps, the numerical expressions and the numerical values ​​set forth in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present invention. At the same time, it should be understood that, for ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship. The techniques, methods and equipment known to those of ordinary skill in the relevant art may not be discussed in detail, but where appropriate, the techniques, methods and equipment should be considered as part of the authorization specification. In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific values ​​should be interpreted as being merely exemplary and not as limitations. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values. It should be noted that similar numbers and letters represent similar items in the following figures, and therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further discussed in subsequent figures.

[0040] In the description of the present invention, it needs to be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by directional words such as "front, back, up, down, left, right", "horizontal, vertical, vertical, horizontal" and "top, bottom" are usually based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the drawings. They are only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description. Unless otherwise specified, these directional words do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction or be constructed and operated in a specific direction. Therefore, they cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of the present invention; the directional words "inside and outside" refer to the inside and outside relative to the outline of each component itself.

[0041] For ease of description, spatially relative terms such as "above", "above", "on the upper surface of", "above", etc. may be used herein to describe the spatial positional relationship of a device or feature to other devices or features as shown in the figures. It should be understood that spatially relative terms are intended to include different orientations of the device in use or operation in addition to the orientation described in the figures. For example, if the device in the drawings is inverted, the device described as "above other devices or structures" or "above other devices or structures" will be positioned as "below other devices or structures" or "below other devices or structures". Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.

[0042] In addition, it should be noted that the use of words such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above words have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0043] like Figure 1-6 As shown, the utility model provides a frequency converter, which includes:

[0044] The shell 36 has a first heat exchange space 100 and a second heat exchange space 200 inside. At least one first heat-generating component is provided in the first heat exchange space 100, and at least one second heat-generating component is provided in the second heat exchange space 200. The total heating power of the first heat-generating component is less than the total heating power of the second heat-generating component. A first fan group having at least one fan is provided in the first heat exchange space 100, and a second fan group having at least one fan is provided in the second heat exchange space 200, and the total airflow rate of the first fan group is less than the total airflow rate of the second fan group.

[0045] The utility model arranges the interior of the inverter housing to have a first and a second heat exchange space, a first heat-generating component is arranged in the first heat exchange space, and a second heat-generating component is arranged in the second heat exchange space, and the total power of the first heat-generating component is less than the total power of the second heat-generating component, and the first fan group arranged in the first heat exchange space is arranged to have a total airflow flow rate smaller than that of the second fan group in the second heat exchange space, so that fans with different airflow rates can be arranged according to the different heating powers of components in different spaces, thereby forming a targeted designed graded heat dissipation. The integrated inverter case of the utility model performs graded heat dissipation according to the difference in required heat dissipation, thereby ensuring sufficient heat dissipation performance for heat exchange spaces with different heating powers, while also providing a heat dissipation effect, reducing energy consumption, and improving the energy efficiency of the inverter heat dissipation structure.

[0046] In some embodiments,

[0047] The total number of fans in the first fan group is smaller than the total number of fans in the second fan group, and the average speed of the fans in the first fan group is smaller than the average speed of the fans in the second fan group.

[0048] This is a preferred structural form of the utility model in which the total airflow rate of the first fan group is smaller than the total airflow rate of the second fan group. By setting the total number of fans in the first fan group to be greater than the total number of fans in the second fan group, the airflow rate can be differentiated by differentiating the number of fans, so that more fans are arranged in the heat exchange space with high power and fewer fans are arranged in the heat exchange space with low power; and / or the average fan speed of the first fan group is smaller than the average fan speed of the second fan group. The airflow rate can be differentiated by differentiating the speed setting, so that fans with higher average speed are arranged in the heat exchange space with high power and fans with lower average speed are arranged in the heat exchange space with low power.

[0049] In some embodiments,

[0050] The inverter upper component 1 and the inverter lower component 2 are arranged in the shell 36, and the inverter upper component 1 is located at the upper end of the inverter lower component 2, and the inverter upper component 1 and the inverter lower component 2 are separated by a sheet metal part; the inverter upper component 1, the inverter lower component 2 and the sheet metal part are an integrated structure, the inverter upper component 1 includes the first heat exchange space 100 and the first heat-generating component, and the upper part of the sheet metal part and the shell 36 form the first heat exchange space 100, the inverter lower component 2 includes the second heat exchange space 200 and the second heat-generating component, and the lower part of the sheet metal part and the shell 36 form the second heat exchange space 200.

[0051] The present invention also uses sheet metal to separate the components inside the inverter box into layers, reducing mutual interference between modules, especially arranging components with larger mass at the bottom to ensure structural stability, and separating strong electricity and weak electricity on the left and right sides at the top to ensure electrical safety; the modular design of the device of the present invention ensures the quick installation and disassembly of the inverter components, saving the labor cost of disassembly and assembly.

[0052] This utility model proposes a dedicated inverter housing structure for air compressors. This allows the inverter to perfectly implement control functions on complete machines with special installation space and electrical connection restrictions, while ensuring convenient installation and high space utilization. Compared to general-purpose inverters, the dedicated inverter in this housing structure is more closely connected to other modules of the complete machine, eliminating the need for special structural modifications to the complete machine to accommodate the inverter. The structural design better meets the needs of the complete machine and offers significant structural advantages. At the same time, the arrangement of components within the housing fully utilizes space, eliminating redundant designs and ensuring perfect control functions. The specialized design also makes the inverter more compatible with the complete machine and simplifies control.

[0053] In some embodiments,

[0054] The upper component 1 of the inverter includes a weak current area and a strong current area, and the sheet metal includes a terminal board support sheet metal group 8 and a main control board support sheet metal 9; the weak current area is provided with a terminal board 5, an indicator light 7, the terminal board support sheet metal group 8 and an intermediate relay 11, and the strong current area is provided with a main control board 3, a switching power supply 4, the main control board support sheet metal 9, and a module support sheet metal 10. The first heating component includes the terminal board 5, the indicator light 7, the intermediate relay 11, the main control board 3 and the switching power supply 4; the first fan group includes a first cooling fan 201.

The heat dissipation design is carried out according to the difference in thermal power between the upper and lower layers, and the heat dissipation system is controlled as a whole. The present invention uses sheet metal to separate the components inside the inverter case in layers, with larger components arranged at the bottom to ensure structural stability, and strong and weak electricity separated on the left and right sides at the top to ensure electrical safety. The hierarchical heat dissipation design is used, and cooling fans with different flow rates are set according to the different heat dissipation requirements of the upper and lower layers to improve the heat dissipation effect. The modular design of the device ensures the quick installation and disassembly of the inverter components, saving the labor cost of disassembly and assembly.

[0056] The lower layer of this utility model primarily houses the power module, while the upper layer houses the control module. The power module generates significant heat during operation, requiring greater heat dissipation from the lower layer. Cooling fans with different flow rates refer to the amount of air passing through them per unit time, a parameter affected by fan speed and size. The lower layer requires greater heat dissipation, and to maintain the internal temperature of the chassis, the fan's cooling power must be higher.
