[0020] In order to make the purpose, technical scheme and advantages of the utility model clearer, the utility model will be described in further detail below in combination with the drawings and examples.
[0021] Please refer to Figure 1 The electronic device 1000 in the embodiment of the utility model can include the inverter device 1001 in the embodiment of the utility model. The electronic device 1000 can be specifically power electronic device 1000, household appliance, renewable energy device, power management device, industrial device, smart grid device and the like. The inverter device 1001 is arranged in the electronic device 1000 to convert electric energy.
[0022] Please refer to Figure 2 The inverter device 1001 in the embodiment of the utility model can include the power device 100 in the embodiment of the utility model. The power device 100 is a key component for realizing DC (direct current) to AC (alternating current) electric energy conversion in the inverter device 1001.
[0023] In order to solve the problem that the IGBT pin and the PCB board in the inverter power module in the prior art are hard connected by soldering to establish the electrical connection mode, which is prone to poor contact.
[0024] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5 The power device 100 in the embodiment of the utility model includes a heat dissipation substrate 10, which is the bottom part of the whole structure. A plurality of working elements can be arranged on the heat dissipation substrate 10, and the heat dissipation substrate 10 can provide heat dissipation support for the plurality of working elements. Optionally, the heat dissipation substrate 10 can be made of high thermal conductivity material, such as copper or aluminum, to effectively dissipate the heat generated by the working elements.
[0025] Please refer to Figure 3 、 Figure 4 and Figure 5 The heat dissipation substrate 10 is provided with an open hole PCB board 20 and an IGBT module 30, and each IGBT module 30 is a working element arranged on the heat dissipation substrate 10. In the utility model, the open hole PCB board 20 can be provided with a plurality of IGBT modules 30. One open hole PCB board 20 is arranged on a plurality of IGBT modules 30. For the electrical connection mode of the open hole PCB board 20 and each IGBT module 30, the open hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30 are electrically connected through a flexible cable 40.
[0026] Wherein, each of the open-hole PCB board 20 has a plurality of openings 21, and each of the IGBT module 30 has a plurality of pins 31. The openings 21 of the open-hole PCB board 20 are arranged correspondingly with the pins 31 of the IGBT module 30, the pins 31 are located in the openings 21, one end of the flexible cable 40 is connected with the pins 31, and the other end of the flexible cable 40 is connected to the open-hole PCB board 20.
[0027] As shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 Specifically, for the mode of arranging the flexible cable 40, first, the open-hole PCB board 20 is arranged in layers on the plurality of IGBT modules 30, then the openings 21 are formed on the open-hole PCB board 20, and the positions of the openings 21 correspond to the positions of the pins 31 of the IGBT modules 30. That is, each of the pins 31 of the IGBT module 30 is located in the opening 21, and the difference from the traditional IGBT and the open-hole PCB board 20 is that they are connected by soldering. In the utility model, a plurality of flexible cables 40 are arranged, one end of the flexible cable 40 is connected to the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30, and the other end of the flexible cable 40 is connected to the open-hole PCB board 20. Of course, the flexible cable 40 is welded to the open-hole PCB board 20.
[0028] Therefore, in the utility model, the open-hole PCB board 20 is processed by the opening 21 at the position corresponding to the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30, and the flexible cable 40 is arranged to realize the soft connection between the IGBT module 30 and the open-hole PCB board 20, thereby avoiding the hard connection (i.e. rigid connection) between the open-hole PCB board 20 and the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30, which helps to reduce the mechanical stress caused by thermal expansion and contraction or vibration, thereby achieving the effect of improving the reliability of the electrical connection between the open-hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30. Optionally, the flexible cable 40 is a twisted pair cable or a single-core cable, which can be selected by the user according to the actual situation.
[0029] In addition, the open-hole PCB board 20 and the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30 are electrically connected through the flexible cable 40, and this flexible cable 40 realizes the soft connection, which can provide better flexibility and avoid stress and damage caused by hard connection, thereby achieving the effect of improving the reliability of the power device 100 as a whole. In addition, the flexible cable 40 can absorb the displacement caused by mechanical vibration and thermal expansion, thereby avoiding the stress concentration problem caused by rigid connection, especially in high-power applications, this soft connection helps to improve the reliability and stability of the power device 100. The flexible cable 40 can also be bent and adjusted according to the actual needs, which is suitable for complex circuit layout and occupies small space, thereby helping to realize the miniaturization design of the power device 100.
[0030] Further, in order to further reduce the hard contact between the open-hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30, in a possible implementation, the open-hole PCB board 20 is a flexible PCB board, that is, the open-hole PCB board 20 can be an FPC board.
[0031] The FPC board not only has good electrical conductivity and electrical insulation performance, but also has high flexibility, which can adapt to different installation spaces and dynamic environments. By stacking the FPC board on the IGBT module 30, the flexible open-hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30 are designed as a whole, and the open-hole PCB board 20 can be fixed on the IGBT module 30 by self-tapping screws, avoiding the stress concentration and poor contact problems caused by the hard connection between the open-hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30. In addition, the design of the FPC board allows multiple layers of conductive wires to be integrated in the circuit, enabling it to support complex electrical connections while providing good vibration resistance.
[0032] Therefore, by arranging the FPC board, the hard contact between the open-hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30 can be effectively reduced, thereby improving the overall reliability and stability of the power device 100.
[0033] As shown in FIG. 1, Figure 5 Further, for the open hole 21, in a possible implementation, a buffer material 50 is arranged in the open hole 21, and the buffer material 50 surrounds the pin 31.
[0034] Specifically, in the embodiment of the present application, the open-hole PCB board 20 is provided with a buffer material 50 in the open hole 21, and the buffer material 50 is specifically arranged around the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30. The buffer material 50 surrounding the pin 31 can provide additional protection for the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30, thereby improving the reliability of the electrical connection between the open-hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30. Moreover, the use of the buffer material 50 can reduce the contact resistance between the open-hole PCB board 20 and the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30, so as to ensure that the open-hole PCB board 20 and the IGBT module 30 can achieve good electrical connection, thereby improving the reliability of signal transmission.
[0035] Optionally, the buffer material 50 can be silicone, polyurethane, foam material (such as polyethylene, polyurethane foam and ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer), and rubber material, etc. Preferably, a silicone buffer material 50 can be arranged.
[0036] Further, for the arrangement mode of the open-hole PCB board 20 stacked on the IGBT module 30, in a possible implementation, the IGBT module 30 is provided with self-tapping screws, and the open-hole PCB board 20 is stacked on the IGBT module 30 by the self-tapping screws.
[0037] In this way, the perforated PCB 20 can be laminated on the IGBT module 30 and fixed by self-tapping screws, which can simplify the assembly process between the perforated PCB 20 and the IGBT module 30 and provide a stable mechanical connection. The self-tapping screws can be directly screwed into the pre-made holes of the IGBT module 30 without the need for additional nuts or washers, thereby improving the stability of the connection and ensuring that the perforated PCB 20 is not easily loosened in a high-temperature and high-vibration environment. In addition, this laminated structure can also achieve effective space saving, which is conducive to heat conduction and improves the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0038] Further, for the specific connection mode of the flexible cable 40, in one possible implementation, the flexible cable 40 is connected with the pin 31 through a pin or a connector. Specifically, one end of the flexible cable 40 can be crimped on the pin, and the pin is inserted with the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30. The connection mode through the pin is convenient and reliable for plugging, and can be suitable for occasions that need to be frequently disassembled or maintained, so as to facilitate the user to replace the flexible cable 40; or the flexible cable 40 can be connected with the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30 through a connector. The use of the connector can provide a more stable and durable contact for the flexible cable 40 and the pin 31, which helps to improve the reliability of the connection between the flexible cable 40 and the pin 31, and can be suitable for scenarios that need to be reliably operated for a long time.
[0039] Of course, the flexible cable 40 and the pin 31 can also be modularly arranged, that is, the flexible cable 40 and the pin 31 are integrally formed. This means that the pin 31 of the IGBT module 30 has integrated the flexible cable 40 when manufactured, and the pin 31 and the flexible cable 40 form an integral whole. In this way, the number of contact points in the power device 100 can be reduced, thereby improving the stability of the connection between the pin 31 and the flexible cable 40. Moreover, since the flexible cable 40 and the pin 31 are integrally formed, that is, the flexible cable 40 and the pin 31 have been pre-integrated, the modular design of the flexible cable 40 and the pin 31 can greatly simplify the installation and assembly process, and engineers no longer need to connect each flexible cable 40 with the pin 31 one by one, thereby saving time, improving the installation of the cable, and reducing the possibility of human error.
