Description

Technical Field

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

[0002] Current sensors are often used to detect the magnitude of phase current in motors. Related sensors include... Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, where Figure 1 The image shows a C-type sensor, with the shielding cover shaped like a C. The chip is placed within the gaps of the C-shaped shielding cover, and a magnetic plate is located inside the chip. The shielding cover's function is to provide a uniform magnetic field to the chip. In this type of sensor, the magnetic plate inside the chip and the magnetic field are perpendicular. Figure 2 The image shows a U-shaped sensor, with the shielding cover in a U-shape. In this type of sensor, the magnetic sheet and magnetic field inside the chip are parallel. U-shaped sensors are smaller, easier to install, and more robust.

[0003] However, regardless of whether it's a C-type or U-type shield, the shielding sheets that make up the shield have very high conductivity. Therefore, when guiding AC magnetic flux, the shielding sheets need to be segmented; otherwise, significant losses will occur. Figure 1 and Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram; the diagram does not show the markings of the shielding sheet segmentation. Traditional U-shaped shields are often made by stamping thin shielding sheets into a U-shape and then stacking multiple sheets together, such as... Figure 3 The image shows a side view of a U-shaped shield. Assuming the current in the conductor is perpendicular to the paper and outwards, the direction of the magnetic flux inside the U-shaped shield is as shown by the arrow in the figure. Figure 4 The image shown is a top view of the U-shaped shield, which reveals the stacking of the shielding sheets. Figure 5 The image shows a U-shaped shielding sheet that can be stamped from a single profile. Since the profile is a large sheet, shielding sheet 1 and shielding sheet 2 are U-shaped shielding sheets with two different stamping directions. Assuming the rolling direction is along the arrow direction, the magnetic flux directions of shielding sheet 1 and shielding sheet 2 (e.g., ...) Figure 3 As shown, none of these can be completely aligned with the rolling direction, resulting in a lower saturation B value (saturation magnetic induction) and higher losses. Therefore, in related technologies, at least a portion of the stamped U-shaped shielding sheet is perpendicular to the rolling direction, and the core performance of this portion is poor, leading to a decrease in the overall core performance. Furthermore, stamping U-shaped shielding sheets on large profiles also wastes material, indirectly increasing the cost of the sensor. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the present invention aims to provide a shielding cover and a sensor. This shielding cover can be formed by stacking multiple shielding sheets of strip structure, so that the forming direction of each part of the shielding cover is the same as the magnetic flux direction of the shielding cover, thereby increasing the saturation B value (saturation magnetic induction intensity) of the shielding cover and reducing losses. Simultaneously, multiple shielding stacks connected in series can be spliced ​​to form a accommodating chamber for accommodating a sensor chip, allowing the sensor chip to operate in a well-shielded magnetic environment, reducing external magnetic field interference, and improving the measurement accuracy and stability of the sensor.

[0005] This utility model discloses a shielding cover for enclosing a sensor chip. It includes:

[0006] Multiple shielding stacks, each shielding stack is formed by stacking multiple shielding sheets, and the multiple shielding stacks are connected in series to enclose and form a accommodating cavity for placing the sensor chip;

[0007] Among them, multiple shielding sheets are all straight strip structures, so that the rolling direction of any shielding sheet can be the same as the magnetic flux direction of the shielding cover.

[0008] Furthermore, a first adhesive is filled between two adjacent shielding stacks.

[0009] Furthermore, each shielding stack also includes connectors, through which multiple stacked shielding sheets are fixed to each other.

[0011] Furthermore, the connector is a second adhesive, and the space between two adjacent shielding sheets is filled with the second adhesive.

[0012] Furthermore, multiple shielding sheets in any shielding stack are stacked along a first preset direction.

[0013] Furthermore, the number of shielding stacks is three, and the three shielding stacks are connected in series to form a "U"-shaped shield.

[0014] Furthermore, the shielding stack located at the bottom of the "U" shape is defined as the bottom stack, and the shielding stack located on the side of the "U" shape is defined as the side stack. In this case, multiple shielding sheets in the side stack are stacked along a second preset direction, and multiple shielding sheets in the bottom stack are stacked along a first preset direction or along a third preset direction.

[0015] The second preset direction is respectively set perpendicular to the first preset direction and the third preset direction.

[0016] Furthermore, the shielding sheet is an oriented silicon steel shielding sheet.

[0017] This utility model embodiment also discloses a sensor, including:

[0018] As mentioned above, a shielding cover;

[0019] The sensor chip is arranged in the accommodating chamber, and the sensor chip is a Hall chip.

[0022] 2) The shielding cover adopts a split structure. The strip-shaped shielding sheet is easy to process. Stamping strip-shaped shielding sheets on large profiles can reduce the waste of profiles, thereby indirectly reducing the production cost of the sensor. Attached Figure Description

[0036] The following specific examples illustrate the implementation of this utility model. Those skilled in the art can easily understand other advantages and effects of this utility model from the content disclosed in this specification. This utility model can also be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified or changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the spirit of this utility model. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features described therein can be combined with each other.

[0037] It should be noted that the illustrations provided in the following embodiments are only schematic representations of the basic concept of the present invention. Therefore, the illustrations only show the components related to the present invention and are not drawn according to the number, shape and size of the components in actual implementation. In actual implementation, the form, quantity and proportion of each component can be arbitrarily changed, and the layout of the components may also be more complex.

[0038] Please refer to Figures 6-11 ,in, Figure 6 This is a side view of the shielding sheet provided in Embodiment 1 of this utility model; Figure 7 This is a top view of the shielding sheet provided in Embodiment 1 of this utility model; Figure 8 This is a side view of the shielding sheet provided in Embodiment 2 of this utility model; Figure 9 This is a top view of the shielding sheet provided in Embodiment 2 of this utility model; Figure 10 This is a side view of the shielding sheet provided in Embodiment 3 of this utility model; Figure 11This is a top view of the shielding sheet provided in Embodiment 3 of this utility model. This utility model provides a shielding cover 100, which includes multiple shielding stacks. Each shielding stack is formed by stacking multiple shielding sheets, and the multiple shielding stacks are connected in series to enclose and form an accommodating cavity (not shown in the figure) for placing a sensor chip. The multiple shielding sheets are all linear strip structures, so that the rolling direction of any shielding sheet is the same as the magnetic flux direction of the shielding cover 100.

[0039] It is worth noting that the shielding cover 100 can be formed by stacking multiple shielding sheets with strip-shaped structures, so that the forming direction of each part of the shielding cover 100 is the same as the magnetic flux direction of the shielding cover 100, thereby increasing the saturation B value (saturation magnetic induction intensity) of the shielding cover 100 and reducing losses. At the same time, multiple shielding stacks connected in series can be spliced ​​to form a accommodating chamber for accommodating the sensor chip, so that the sensor chip can work in a good magnetic shielding environment, reducing external magnetic field interference and improving the measurement accuracy and stability of the sensor.

[0040] It is also worth noting that the shielding cover 100 adopts a split structure. The strip-shaped shielding sheet is easy to process. Stamping strip-shaped shielding sheets on large profiles can reduce the waste of profiles, thereby indirectly reducing the production cost of the sensor.

[0041] Optionally, a first adhesive 5 is filled between two adjacent shielding stacks.

[0042] Specifically, the filling of the first adhesive 5 can firmly fix adjacent shielding stacks, preventing loosening, misalignment, or deformation, and improving overall mechanical stability. Simultaneously, the filling of the first adhesive 5 can reduce gaps, thereby reducing magnetic flux leakage, making the magnetic shielding effect more complete and uniform, and improving the ability of the shielding cover 100 to suppress external interference magnetic fields. In this embodiment, the first adhesive 5 can be epoxy resin. Epoxy resin has high strength and durability; its cured strength is high, it can maintain structural stability for a long time, and it avoids generating additional electromagnetic interference, making it suitable for long-term applications. Depending on the specific implementation environment, other materials can also be used as the first adhesive 5.

[0043] In this embodiment, each shielding stack also includes a connector, through which multiple stacked shielding sheets are fixed to each other.

[0044] It is worth noting that the shielding stack is composed of multiple shielding sheets stacked together. Without a reliable fixing method, the sheets may become misaligned or loose due to vibration, external force, or long-term use. In this embodiment, the shielding sheets can be firmly fixed by connectors, so that the shielding stack as a whole remains stable, ensuring the long-term reliability of the shielding cover 100, reducing the risk of magnetic flux leakage, and improving the magnetic shielding capability of the shielding cover 100.

[0045] Optionally, such as Figure 6 As shown, the connector can be a fastening screw, and threaded holes 4 are provided in multiple shielding plates; wherein, the fastening screw is sequentially inserted into multiple shielding plates through the threaded holes 4.

[0046] Specifically, screw fixing is more reliable, providing higher mechanical strength and ensuring a tight fit between the shielding sheets, preventing loosening, deformation, or misalignment due to vibration or external forces. It also offers superior long-term stability, making it suitable for applications requiring high strength and durability, such as magnetic shielding components in high-vibration and high-temperature environments.

[0047] Optionally, the connector can be a second adhesive, with the space between two adjacent shielding sheets filled with the second adhesive.

[0048] Specifically, the second adhesive can be made of the same material as the first adhesive 5, or it can be made of other materials. Compared with the screw fixing mentioned above, it does not require drilling threaded holes 4 on the shielding sheet, thereby reducing processing steps. The adhesive method can be directly applied and bonded, reducing processing steps and improving production efficiency. Its cost is lower than that of screws and thread processing, and it can significantly reduce manufacturing costs in large-scale production.

[0049] In this embodiment, multiple shielding sheets in any shielding stack are stacked along a first preset direction.

[0050] It should be noted that, such as Figure 6 and Figure 7 In the embodiment shown, multiple shielding sheets are stacked along a first preset direction, wherein the first preset direction refers to... Figure 6 With the orientation perpendicular to the paper, this stacking method ensures that all shielding sheets are aligned in the same direction, resulting in optimal magnetic permeability in a uniform direction. Furthermore, the consistent orientation of all shielding sheets allows for the use of standardized production equipment and processes for processing and placement, avoiding complex multi-directional stacking and simplifying the production process.

[0051] Optionally, the number of shielding stacks is three, and the three shielding stacks are connected in series to form a "U"-shaped shielding cover 100.

[0052] Specifically, the number of shielding stacks can be 2, 4, 5, etc., to form a "C"-shaped or other shaped shielding cover 100. This embodiment does not constitute a limitation on the specific structural type of the shielding cover 100, but is only an example to illustrate its structural type.

[0053] In this embodiment, as Figures 8-11 As shown, the shielding stack located at the bottom of the "U" shape is defined as the bottom stack 3, and the shielding stack located on the side of the "U" shape is defined as the side stack 1. The multiple shielding sheets in the side stack 1 are stacked along a second preset direction, and the multiple shielding sheets in the bottom stack 3 are stacked along a first preset direction or a third preset direction. The second preset direction is perpendicular to the first preset direction and the third preset direction, respectively.

[0054] Understandably, the first preset direction refers to, for example... Figure 8 The direction perpendicular to the paper surface, the second preset direction refers to Figure 8 The diagram shows the directions from left to right; the third preset direction refers to... Figure 8 The diagram shows the direction from top to bottom. In this embodiment, the bottom stack 3 and the side stack 1 adopt different stacking directions, which can provide uniform mechanical support in different directions and reduce stress concentration in the overall structure. In addition, this stacking method can be applied to devices with various shapes and structures, which is beneficial for adaptability design according to specific size requirements and meets the space occupation requirements of different sensors.

[0055] In this embodiment, the shielding sheet is an oriented silicon steel shielding sheet.

[0056] This embodiment also includes a sensor comprising the shield 100 as described above and a sensing chip, the sensing chip being disposed within a receiving chamber, and the sensing chip being a Hall effect chip. This sensor possesses all the beneficial effects of the shield 100.
