Description

A copper foil lead wire structure for motors Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of copper foil welding technology, and in particular to a structure for copper foil lead wires of motors. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry has placed higher demands on the power density and performance of drive motors.

[0003] High-power-density motors can deliver greater power output in a smaller size and weight, thereby improving vehicle performance, range, and energy efficiency. Using copper foil as the armature coil material is one of the important means to improve motor performance. Copper foil has excellent conductivity and high mechanical strength, which can significantly improve the slot fill factor of the motor, thereby further improving power density and torque density.

[0004] However, copper foil also faces some technical challenges in practical applications. Copper foil is wide, thin, and lacks flexibility, making it difficult to twist, which requires a significant amount of space during motor assembly. To achieve flexibility in bending and installation, additional lead wires are usually welded. However, current copper foil lead wire welding technology suffers from insufficient contact area between the copper foil and the lead wire, poor weld joint stability, uneven weld shape, and copper foil deformation after welding. These problems can further lead to insufficient current carrying capacity, motor overheating, weld joint detachment, and poor winding quality, affecting the overall performance of the motor.

[0005] Therefore, how to improve the structural stability, current carrying capacity, and service life of copper foil welding leads remains a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Summary of the Invention

[0006] To address the technical problem of improving the structural stability, current carrying capacity, and service life of copper foil welded lead wires, this utility model provides a motor copper foil lead wire structure, which is formed by welding copper foil wound into lead wires, with solder evenly filling the area around the lead wires and the overlapping area of ​​the copper foils.

[0007] Among them, the cross-sectional area of ​​the weld is greater than 150% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the copper foil;

[0008] One end of the lead wire is connected to the copper foil winding, and the other end is connected to the output terminal.

[0009] In one embodiment, the thickness of the copper foil is 0.02 mm to 1 mm.

[0010] In one embodiment, the lead wire is a copper wire with a specification of φ0.03 ~ φ1.1 and a number of strands ≥1.

[0011] Furthermore, when the number of copper wire strands is ≥5, the multiple copper wires are arranged in a rectangular array on the surface of the copper foil, with the long side of the rectangular array parallel to the side of the copper foil and the short side perpendicular to the side of the copper foil.

[0012] Furthermore, the rectangular array has 2 to 4 layers of copper wire arranged on its short side.

[0013] In one embodiment, the solder is HL204 or HL205.

[0014] In one embodiment, the axial welding length of the lead wire is 70% to 100% of the width of the copper foil.

[0015] In one embodiment, the overlap area of ​​the copper foil is 30% to 70% of the total radial width of the lead wire.

[0016] In one embodiment, the number of turns of the copper foil fully wound around the lead wire is 1 to 3 turns.

[0017] In one embodiment, when the motor copper foil lead wire structure serves as the inlet and outlet ends respectively, the lead wires are located on the inner and outer sides of the copper foil respectively.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:

[0019] The copper foil lead wire structure for motors provided by this utility model is formed by winding copper foil into a lead wire and welding it. The copper foil has a large contact area with the lead wire, and the solder evenly fills the gaps in the lead wire and the overlapping area of ​​the copper foil. The cross-sectional area of ​​the weld is greater than 150% of the cross-sectional area of ​​the copper foil, effectively preventing the weld from becoming a bottleneck in current conduction. Furthermore, the copper foil is completely wound around the lead wire 1 to 3 times, and the length of the copper foil overlapping area is 30% to 70% of the radial width of the lead wire. The winding assembly has a dense structure, a large overlapping range, high weld strength after welding, no weld seams on the outer side of the copper foil, high structural flatness, and no surface quality problems such as burn-through or deformation. After the copper foil winding is completed, the motor slot fill factor is high, effectively improving the motor power density. Attached Figure Description
