[0022] The utility model will be explained further in detail now in combination with the drawings and embodiments, wherein the same or similar reference signs represent the same or similar elements or elements with the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below by referring to the drawings are exemplary, only for explaining the utility model, and are not for limiting the scope of the utility model.

[0023] As shown in the drawings, Figure 1 The utility model provides an inverter inductance, this inverter inductance includes external shell 10, internal shell 20 and inductance component 30, wherein one or more inductance components 30 can be placed in the containing cavity of internal shell 20, and the shape structure of external shell 10 and internal shell 20 is mutually matched, so that the inductance component 30 and internal shell 20 of the integral of assembled completion can be tightly placed in the containing cavity 11 of external shell 10. Inductance component 30 includes at least one coil 31, the terminal 32 for connecting inductance component 30 with external circuit, multiple separate magnetic cores 33, the insulating baffle 35 of both sides of coil 31 and insulating cover plate 36. In preferred embodiments, three separate magnetic cores 33 are arranged in the cavity surrounded by each coil 31, wherein the three separate magnetic cores 33 are linearly arranged adjacent to each other, and the three separate magnetic cores 33 are composed of upper yoke magnetic core and lower yoke magnetic core of aerosolized iron silicon aluminum material and middle column magnetic core of iron silicon material. Compared with the inductor with only one integral magnetic core, the inductor with the aerosolized iron silicon aluminum magnetic core divided into upper and lower yokes and the middle iron silicon alloy magnetic core can better guide and concentrate the magnetic field lines to improve the inductive voltage and energy storage capacity of the inductor; can more effectively control the magnetic field distribution, reduce the leakage phenomenon of magnetic flux, thereby improve the utilization rate of the magnetic core and reduce the energy loss; and the middle iron silicon alloy magnetic core as a connecting and supporting part can provide continuity of the magnetic circuit and increase the transmission efficiency of the magnetic field. Therefore, the utility model meets the inductance performance requirements of high saturation resistance and low loss by the three separate magnetic cores composed of upper yoke magnetic core and lower yoke magnetic core of aerosolized iron silicon aluminum material and middle column magnetic core of iron silicon material.

[0024] In further embodiments, the peripheral size of the insulating baffle 35 and the insulating cover plate 36 on both sides of the coil 31 is greater than the diameter size of the coil 31, so as to facilitate the separation of the coil 31 and the internal shell 20. Moreover, the insulating baffle 35 is arranged between the coil 31 and the insulating cover plate 36 to separate the insulating cover plate 36 and the coil 31. In combination with Figure 2The structure of the insulation partition plate 35 is shown, which is provided with a hole 351 that can make the upper yoke and lower yoke of the magnetic core 33 axially pass through the insulation partition plate 35 and abut against the insulation cover plate 36, so as to fix and position the magnetic core 33 through the hole 351. The insulation partition plate 35 is also provided with a plurality of fixing claws 352 protruding from the outer surface thereof, and a flange 353 surrounding three sides of the insulation partition plate 35, wherein the fixing claws 352 and the flange 353 are integrally formed to jointly constitute the fixing part of the insulation cover plate 36, so as to ensure that the magnetic core 33 is stably abutted against the insulation cover plate 36.

[0025] In a preferred embodiment, an insulation gasket 34 can also be arranged between the insulation cover plate 36 and the upper yoke or lower yoke of the magnetic core 33, which can be composed of high-temperature and high-pressure resistant epoxy resin. Through the insulation gasket 34, the displacement impact between the insulation cover plate 36 and the magnetic core 33 can be buffered, and further the insulation of the magnetic core 33 from the external environment is ensured.

[0026] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 The external shell 10 can include one or more accommodation cavities 11 for accommodating the internal shell 20, wherein two adjacent accommodation cavities 11 are joined together through a connecting part 15. The two sides of the connecting part 15 are formed by the edge profiles of the side portions of the two adjacent accommodation cavities 11, and the top of the connecting part 15 is a flat rectangular plane with a certain width, wherein the rectangular top of the connecting part 15 makes the adjacent accommodation cavities 11 spaced apart by a certain distance, so that the two adjacent inductor assemblies 30 placed in the adjacent accommodation cavities 11 are also spaced apart by a certain distance. In this way, through the spacing of the connecting part 15, the problem of heat being difficult to dissipate caused by the adjacent inductor assemblies 30 being close together is avoided.

[0027] In an embodiment, the external shell 10 is provided with a plurality of parallel side heat dissipation fins 12 on both sides, and a plurality of parallel bottom heat dissipation fins 13 on the bottom. The bottom heat dissipation fins 13 extend downward from the bottom base plate of the external shell 10 to a sufficient height, wherein the fin height of the bottom heat dissipation fins 13 can reach at least 120 mm. The design of the side heat dissipation fins 12 and the bottom heat dissipation fins 13 can effectively increase the heat dissipation area of the inverter inductor shell and improve the heat dissipation effect.

[0028] In one embodiment, the middle of the accommodating cavity 11 of the outer shell 10 is provided with a heat dissipation spacer 14, which is protruded upward from the middle of the bottom plate of the accommodating cavity 11 and is inserted into the gap in the middle of the accommodating cavity of the two adjacent coils 31 of the inductor assembly 30 of the inner shell 20. The heat dissipation spacer 14 can facilitate the heat between the adjacent coils 31 of the inductor assembly 30 to be guided to the outer shell 10 and dissipated through the side heat dissipation teeth 12 and the bottom heat dissipation teeth 13 on the outer shell 10.

[0029] In one embodiment, the outer shell 10 is further provided with a mounting hole 16 at the middle heat dissipation tooth of the bottom heat dissipation teeth 13 of the accommodating cavity 11 at the symmetrical two ends, which is extended upward from the bottom of the middle heat dissipation tooth of the bottom heat dissipation teeth 13, but the mounting hole 16 is formed as a blind hole without penetrating the middle heat dissipation tooth. The mounting hole 16 is used to mount and fix the outer shell 10 of the inverter inductor with the external electrical equipment.

[0030] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the inner shell 20 can include a plurality of accommodating cavities for accommodating the inductor assembly 30, wherein the plurality of accommodating cavities are spaced apart by a certain distance and connected together through the inner shell connecting part 21. Each accommodating cavity includes a first inductor accommodating cavity 22 and a second inductor accommodating cavity 23. The first inductor accommodating cavity 22 and the second inductor accommodating cavity 23 can have a cylindrical shape suitable for accommodating the inductor. Further, referring to Figure 6 , the spacing distance between the first inductor accommodating cavity 22 and the second inductor accommodating cavity 23 gradually decreases from the bottom and finally merges together at the middle of the accommodating cavity of the inner shell 20 to form a joint 24. And the spacing part from the bottom to the joint 24 between the first inductor accommodating cavity 22 and the second inductor accommodating cavity 23 forms an air channel opening between the adjacent inductors of the inductor assembly 30, wherein the heat dissipation spacer 14 of the outer shell 10 can be inserted into the air channel opening to be fitted together in a non-tight fitting manner. Through the air channel opening, the hot air between the adjacent inductors can flow freely in the air channel opening, and after the hot air contacts the heat dissipation spacer 14, the heat of the inductor can be smoothly discharged from the shell.

[0031] The above only describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principles of the present application shall be included in the protection scope of the present application.
