[0036] Example 1
[0037] like Figure 1As shown, an integrated oil-cooled motor controller is used in a vehicle power system to achieve a higher level of integration and meet the urgent needs of modern intelligent vehicles for miniaturized, intelligent, and efficient motor control. This integrated oil-cooled motor controller includes a power supply module, a main control chip, a microcontroller (MCU), an integrated power module, an oil pump control module (EOP), and a high-voltage battery pack.
[0038] In this embodiment, the power supply module is used to supply low-voltage DC power to the main control chip and to feed back data to the main control chip and / or the microcontroller. The power supply module includes a battery, a voltage regulator (LDO), and a power supply sensor group. The battery is used to supply low-voltage DC power to the main control chip, the voltage regulator is used to stabilize the low-voltage DC power supplied by the battery to the main control chip, and the power supply sensor group is used to feed back data to the main control chip and / or the microcontroller. In practice, lines KL30 and KL31 are used to connect the battery to the LDO, and then the LDO is connected to the main control chip.
[0039] In this embodiment, the main control chip is used to control and coordinate the operation of the microcontroller, integrated power module, oil pump control module, and high-voltage battery pack. As the core of the entire motor controller integrated power module and oil pump control module, the main control chip is responsible for coordinating the operation of the integrated power module and oil pump control module. Based on various operating conditions of the vehicle, such as accelerator pedal position, brake signal, and battery level, it generates corresponding control commands and sends them to the two modules.
[0040] In this embodiment, the microcontroller (MCU) is used to control and coordinate the operation of the integrated power supply module, the oil pump control module, and the motor. In practice, a high-performance microcontroller (MCU) is used to run a dedicated control algorithm program. On the one hand, it schedules the operation of the integrated power supply module according to the input control commands, manages voltage conversion, and monitors the power supply status. On the other hand, it calculates the optimal operating parameters of the oil pump according to the working conditions and outputs the corresponding drive signal to the oil pump control module to achieve intelligent and precise control.
[0041] In this embodiment, the integrated power module is used to convert high-voltage DC power into low-voltage DC power and output it, as well as to supply low-voltage DC power to the oil pump control module, while simultaneously feeding back data to the main control chip and / or microcontroller. The integrated power module employs a high-efficiency DC-DC converter (DCDC) circuit to convert the high-voltage battery pack voltage of the new energy vehicle into different low-voltage levels required by the various electronic components inside the motor controller, such as 5V and 12V. This conversion circuit has a wide input voltage range adaptability and can stably output power even when the battery voltage fluctuates significantly. The integrated power module is connected to the main control chip of the motor controller, receiving control signals from the main control chip to achieve intelligent adjustment of the power output; for example, dynamically adjusting the output voltage according to the motor's operating status to reduce power consumption. The integrated power module has built-in overvoltage, overcurrent, and short-circuit protection circuits. When an abnormal output voltage or current is detected, it quickly cuts off the power output to protect the internal components of the motor controller from damage; the protection circuit has a fast response and self-recovery function, automatically restoring normal power supply after the fault is cleared. During implementation, connect the DC-DC converter to other components or modules that require low-voltage DC power (LV in the attached diagram represents low-voltage output), such as connecting the DC-DC converter to the EOP.
[0042] In this embodiment, the oil pump control module (EOP) is used to control the operation of the oil pump and feed back data to the main control chip and / or microcontroller, such as oil temperature and oil pump speed. The oil pump control module includes an oil pump drive circuit, an oil pump sensor group, and a communication unit. The oil pump drive circuit controls the oil pump's speed and flow rate, and can precisely control these parameters according to the instructions from the motor controller. The oil pump drive circuit uses pulse width modulation (PWM) technology, adjusting the duty cycle of the PWM signal to control the input voltage of the oil pump motor, thereby achieving precise control of the oil pump speed. The oil pump sensor group feeds back data to the main control chip and / or microcontroller. In practice, oil pump status monitoring sensors, such as pressure sensors and flow sensors, are connected to the oil pump. These sensors monitor the oil pump's operating status in real time and feed the data back to the main control chip of the motor controller. The main control chip performs closed-loop control of the oil pump control module based on the feedback data, ensuring that the oil pump always operates in optimal condition to meet the motor's lubrication and cooling requirements. The communication unit is used to communicate with the vehicle's electronic control unit (ECU). By receiving vehicle operating parameter information from the ECU, such as vehicle speed and motor load, it is easier to coordinate and control the operation of the oil pump. For example, when the vehicle is traveling at high speed and the motor load is light, the oil pump speed can be appropriately reduced to reduce energy consumption.
[0043] In this embodiment, the high-voltage battery pack is used to supply high-voltage DC power to the microcontroller and integrated power module, and to feed data back to the main control chip and / or microcontroller. The high-voltage battery pack includes a slow-charging module (OBC), a high-voltage DC output module (HVDC Output), and a battery sensor group. The slow-charging module receives external AC power (AC Input) and charges the high-voltage DC output module. The high-voltage DC output module outputs high-voltage DC power to the microcontroller and integrated power module. The battery sensor group feeds data back to the main control chip and / or microcontroller. In practice, AC power from the external charging station is output to the OBC, which then transmits it to the high-voltage DC output module (HVDC Output). The positive and negative terminals (HV+, HV-) of the high-voltage battery pack are connected to the MCU and DC-DC converter.
