Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of transformer core technology, and in particular to a core structure. Background Technology

[0002] Magnetic components used in the design of power electronic products, such as transformers and inductors, typically use manganese-zinc ferrite as the core material. Manganese-zinc ferrite, as the main core material, has advantages such as high initial permeability, low loss in low-to-medium frequency (less than 1MHz) applications, a wide variety of magnetic materials available, and low cost.

[0003] To meet the design requirements of power electronic products, the magnetic core typically needs to be polished to create an air gap to adjust the inductance. The size of the air gap depends on both the required inductance and the need to ensure that the maximum magnetic flux density during operation does not exceed the saturation flux density of the manganese-zinc ferrite magnet. Due to the high initial permeability of manganese-zinc ferrite magnets, the air gap is usually relatively large to ensure sufficient design margin for magnetic flux density. Therefore, if... Figure 1 As shown, in the prior art, the magnetic core structure includes a magnetic core body 1 forming an air gap. On the central column 2 on one side of the magnetic core body 1, multiple layers of epoxy boards 3 or ceramic sheets and segmented air gap magnetic materials 4 with the same magnetic material as the magnetic core body 1 are spaced apart. This divides a large air gap into multiple segmented air gaps by combining epoxy boards 3 and segmented air gap magnetic materials 4, forming multiple smaller air gaps. This reduces the eddy current loss caused by the large air gap, thus reducing the problem of excessive temperature rise. However, such technology is extremely complex in the manufacturing process and is not easy to control. Moreover, the air gap cannot be evenly distributed, and the product is unstable after reliability testing.

[0004] Therefore, a new technology needs to be developed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0008] As a preferred scheme, the alloy cores of the two magnetic core bodies abut against each other.

[0009] As a preferred scheme, an air gap is formed between the alloy cores of the two magnetic core bodies.

[0012] As a preferred scheme, the integrated alloy core structure and the middle column have the same shape, and the width of the integrated alloy core structure and the middle column in the direction perpendicular to the butt-jointed direction is the same.

[0013] As a preferred scheme, the alloy core is arranged on the middle installation position by press forming.

[0014] As a preferred scheme, the ferrite core is a PQ type ferrite core.

[0026] Please refer to Figures 2 to 4 , which shows the specific structure of the three embodiments of the present application.

[0027] As Figure 2 shown, in embodiment one, a magnetic core structure includes two magnetic core bodies 10, which are butted together; the two magnetic core bodies 10 each include a ferrite magnetic core 11 and an alloy magnetic core 12, the ferrite magnetic core 11 is a PQ type ferrite magnetic core 11, the ferrite magnetic core 11 has a concave structure, the inner side wall of the ferrite magnetic core 11 perpendicular to the butt joint direction is provided with a middle mounting position, the alloy magnetic core 12 is arranged on the middle mounting position by compression molding, the alloy magnetic cores 12 of the two magnetic core bodies 10 are arranged opposite to each other, so that the existing segmented air gap technology can be replaced by the integration of the alloy magnetic core 12 and the ferrite magnetic core 11, and the alloy magnetic core 12 has the advantages of low magnetic permeability, low loss, high Bs, excellent DC superimposed bias characteristics, etc., so that the DC superimposed bias characteristics of the product can be improved, the temperature rise and loss can be reduced to a greater extent, the manufacturing process is simpler, the consistency is better, which is conducive to improving the product performance and reducing the cost. In addition, the alloy magnetic cores 12 of the two magnetic core bodies 10 abut each other to realize zero air gap design according to product parameter requirements.

[0028] As Figure 3As shown in Embodiment 2, a magnetic core structure includes two magnetic core bodies 10, which are mated together. Each of the two magnetic core bodies 10 includes a ferrite core 11 and an alloy core 12. The alloy core 12 has advantages such as low permeability, low loss, high Bs, and excellent DC superposition bias characteristics, thereby improving the DC superposition bias characteristics of the product. The ferrite core 11 is a PQ-type ferrite core 11 with a concave structure. A central mounting position is provided on the inner sidewall of the ferrite core 11 perpendicular to the mating direction. The alloy core 12 is set at the central mounting position by pressing. The alloy cores 12 of the two magnetic core bodies 10 are arranged opposite each other. Furthermore, an air gap 13 is formed between the alloy cores 12 of the two magnetic core bodies 10 to achieve a small air gap design according to product parameter requirements.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown in Embodiment 3, a magnetic core structure includes two magnetic core bodies 10, which are docked together. Each of the two magnetic core bodies 10 includes a ferrite core 11 and an alloy core 12. Since the alloy core 12 has advantages such as low permeability, low loss, high Bs, and excellent DC superposition bias characteristics, it can improve the DC superposition bias characteristics of the product. The ferrite core 11 is a PQ type ferrite core 11 with a concave structure. The inner sidewall of the ferrite core 11 perpendicular to the docking direction is provided with a central mounting position. The alloy core 12 is disposed on the central mounting position, and the alloy cores 12 of the two magnetic core bodies 10 are disposed opposite each other.

[0030] Specifically, in Embodiment 3, a central post 14 is integrally protruding from the middle mounting position of the ferrite core 11. A non-ferromagnetic medium 15 is provided on the side of the central post 14 away from the middle mounting position. The alloy cores 12 of the two core bodies 10 are integrally connected to form an integral alloy core structure 16. The two ends of the integral alloy core structure 16 are respectively connected to the non-ferromagnetic mediums 15 of the two core bodies 10. Since the permeability μ of the non-ferromagnetic medium 15 is approximately equal to μ0 (air permeability), the gap formed by these non-ferromagnetic media 15 is basically consistent with the effect of an air gap, that is, it is equivalent to setting an air gap at both ends of the alloy core 12. Furthermore, the non-ferromagnetic medium 15 is preferably an epoxy board or a ceramic sheet.

[0031] Furthermore, in Embodiment 3, the integral alloy magnetic core structure 16 and the central column 14 have the same shape, and the integral alloy magnetic core structure 16 and the central column 14 have the same width in the direction perpendicular to the docking direction.

[0033] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the utility model, and does not make any limitation on the technical range of the utility model, so any slight modification, equivalent change and modification made according to the technical essence of the utility model to the above embodiment still belongs to the range of the technical scheme of the utility model.
