[0034] The specific implementation of the utility model is as follows: Figure 2-8 , including a winding skeleton 3, a split magnetic core 5, and a winding wire 7. The winding skeleton 3 includes an upper skeleton layer 32 and a lower skeleton layer 33. A slot gap 31 is provided between the upper skeleton layer 32 and the lower skeleton layer 33. The inner layer of the winding skeleton 3 is elliptical in a top view. The split magnetic core 5 is located inside the winding skeleton 3. The upper magnetic core located within the height interval of the upper skeleton layer 32 is separated from the magnetic core located within the height interval of the lower skeleton layer 33. The winding wire 7 is coiled on the outside of the winding skeleton 3. The generation of the split magnetic core 5 can obtain better efficiency by expanding the gap of the split magnetic core 5 in the horizontal direction by fixing it up and down, and can adjust the leakage inductance value to meet the requirements of the resonant inductance and reduce the volume by using the separation method of the slot gap 31.
[0035] Please refer to Figures 1-8 The winding skeleton 3 includes an elliptical through-tube wall and a plurality of winding discs, which are fixed to the circumference of the elliptical barrel tube wall and arranged at intervals from top to bottom. A terminal post 6 is provided on one side of the topmost winding disc, and the terminal post 6 is used to fix the outlet end of the winding wire 7;
[0036] The number of the multi-layer winding discs is at least three, the upper skeleton layer 32 is located between the top winding disc and the middle winding disc, and the lower skeleton layer 33 is located between the bottom winding disc and the middle winding disc;
[0037] A plurality of heat dissipation holes 34 are provided on each of the plurality of winding disks;
[0038] The side walls of the upper skeleton layer 32 and the lower skeleton layer 33 are both provided with a plurality of vertical slot holes 35.

[0039] Please pay attention to Figure 9 The winding wire 7 includes an inner winding 71 and an outer winding 72. The outer winding 72 is wound around the outside of the inner winding 71. The winding wire 7 is respectively wound around the outer walls of the upper skeleton layer 32 and the lower skeleton layer 33. The winding structure is optimized, the leakage inductance is easy to adjust, and the versatility is good. The wire specification is 0.04mm*3000P, which reduces AC loss.
[0040] Please pay attention to Figure 1-3 、 Figure 7-9The outer shell 2 is provided on the outside of the winding skeleton 3, and the outer shell 2 includes an upper and lower combined cover plates 21. The upper part of the split magnetic core 5 is provided with a magnetic core pressing plate 4, and the upper and lower combined cover plates 21 are used to press the magnetic core pressing plate 4 and the split magnetic core 5;

[0043] The elliptical design of the middle magnetic column can make full use of space, improve power density and reduce volume. The core material uses low-loss 96A material, and the eddy current magnetic column is reduced by changing the gap of the elliptical core. The cylindrical middle magnetic column on the top view is larger in diameter when coiled, and the coiled surface increases with the thickness of the winding stack. The elliptical EDX structure center magnetic column can increase the winding length of the coil layer and the outer wall of the magnetic column. There is no need to coil multiple layers to obtain more beneficial efficiency effects of magnetic flux. Compared with the original winding method, it has the characteristics of fewer coils, convenient stacking, centralized and efficient, and it is convenient to reduce the size of the device, which can be better used in trams.
