[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy vehicle industry, the electronic suspension industry has also attracted more and more attention. The integrated electro-hydraulic pump solution (permanent magnet synchronous motor + motor controller + pump) that provides power and control for electronic suspension is highly favored by various OEMs. At the same time, the requirements for the integration of electro-hydraulic pumps are getting higher and higher. As the core drive unit of the electro-hydraulic pump system, the design and installation structure of the electro-hydraulic pump drive board directly affects the performance and reliability of the system.

[0003] The electronic control unit (ECU) and motor typically share a common housing, with the IPM power module on the ECU driver board directly attached to the motor housing for heat dissipation. However, because motors operate at very high temperatures, and some are air-cooled, their internal cooling systems are ineffective at dissipating heat. This leads to excessive temperature rise in the IGBTs or MOSFETs within the IPM power module. These issues not only affect the reliability of the driver board but can also cause the entire system to fail. Therefore, designing an efficient and reliable mounting structure is crucial.

[0021] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the inventor of this case, through long-term research and extensive practice, has come up with the technical solution of this utility model. The following will further explain the technical solution, its implementation process, and its principles.

[0022] This utility model discloses a heat dissipation structure for an electro-hydraulic pump drive plate assembly, such as... Figure 1 As shown, the device includes an upper cover plate 3, on one side of which an IPM power module 1 is disposed. The IPM power module 1 is fixedly connected to the upper cover plate 3. A high-efficiency thermal conductive grease layer is disposed between the IPM power module 1 and the upper cover plate 3. The high-efficiency thermal conductive grease layer can not only fill the gap between the IPM power module 1 and the upper cover plate 3, but also increase thermal conductivity, greatly improving heat dissipation efficiency and ensuring that the IPM power module 1 can still operate stably under high temperature conditions.

[0023] The IPM power module 1 has pins on the side away from the upper cover plate 3. These pins pass through pin holes on the driver board assembly 2 and are fixed within the pin holes, ensuring electrical connection between the IPM power module 1 and the driver board assembly 2. In this embodiment, the pins of the IPM power module 1 are soldered to the solder holes of the driver board assembly 2, ensuring electrical connection between the IPM power module 1 and the driver board assembly 2. The IPM power module 1 is mounted upside down on the upper cover plate 3 and secured with bolts.

[0024] The upper cover plate 3 is fixedly connected to the drive plate assembly 2. Specifically, four threaded holes are pre-machined on the drive plate assembly 2. During installation, four screws are used to pass through the threaded holes to fix the drive plate assembly 2 to the upper cover plate 3, ensuring the stability and reliability of the fixation between the drive plate assembly 2 and the upper cover plate 3. This fixing method not only facilitates installation and disassembly but also effectively reduces the impact of vibration and shock on the drive plate assembly 2.

[0025] To further improve heat dissipation efficiency, multiple heat dissipation fins 4 are provided on the side of the upper cover plate 3 away from the IPM power module 1. These multiple heat dissipation fins 4 can be arranged in an array or not; in this embodiment, to achieve more efficient and uniform heat dissipation, multiple heat dissipation fins 4 are arranged in an array on the upper cover plate 3. The multiple heat dissipation fins 4 significantly increase the heat dissipation surface area, effectively dissipating heat into the air through convection and conduction, reducing temperature rise, and improving service life.

[0026] Based on the above, a protrusion 5 is provided on the upper cover plate 3. The protrusion 5 is located on the side of the upper cover plate 3 closest to the IPM power module 1. The protrusion 5 corresponds to the position of the IPM power module 1 and is fixedly connected to the IPM power module 1. The protrusion 5 is precision machined to ensure the flatness of the IPM power module 1 during installation. Before installing the IPM power module 1, a high-efficiency thermal grease is applied to the IPM power module 1 to form a high-efficiency thermal grease layer. The thermal grease can fill the gap between the protrusion and the IPM power module 1, increasing the thermal conductivity of the IPM power module 1.

[0027] Another aspect of this utility model discloses an electro-hydraulic pump, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 As shown, the device includes a housing 7 and a heat dissipation structure for the electro-hydraulic pump drive board assembly. The heat dissipation structure for the electro-hydraulic pump drive board assembly is mounted on the housing 7. A thin-film capacitor 11 is fixedly connected inside the housing 7, specifically, the thin-film capacitor 11 is fixed to the housing 7 by fixing bolts. During assembly, the upper cover plate 3, drive board assembly 2, and IPM power module 1 are pre-assembled and then installed onto the housing 7 as a whole.

[0028] Based on the above, a control board assembly 6 is provided inside the housing 7. The control board assembly 6 is connected to the drive board assembly 2 via a wiring harness 9 to ensure internal communication.

[0029] In some implementations, the drive board assembly 2 is provided with five L-shaped terminals 10. Each of the five L-shaped terminals 10 includes a high-voltage positive terminal, a high-voltage negative terminal, a U terminal, a V terminal, and a W terminal. The high-voltage positive terminal is connected to the positive copper busbar of the film capacitor 11, and the high-voltage negative terminal is connected to the negative copper busbar of the film capacitor 11. The U terminal is connected to the U-phase line of the motor, the V terminal is connected to the V-phase line of the motor, and the W terminal is connected to the W-phase line of the motor, ensuring three-phase output.

[0030] In some implementations, a high-voltage socket 8 is provided on the housing 7. The positive wiring harness 9 of the high-voltage socket 8 is connected to the high-voltage positive terminal, and the negative wiring harness 9 of the high-voltage socket 8 is connected to the high-voltage negative terminal, ensuring direct input of external power.
