Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of current distributor technology, specifically to a high-current, high-heat-dissipation current distributor. Background Technology
[0002] A current distributor is a power electronic device or component used to distribute a single input current evenly and efficiently to multiple output branches. It is crucial in high-power systems, new energy sources, and industrial equipment, especially when systems require multiple parallel power supplies, current sharing control, or redundancy backup.
[0003] Existing current distributors generate more heat and experience faster temperature rise when carrying a large current through their copper busbars. When current (I) flows through the resistive (R) copper busbars, heat is generated (power loss P_loss = I). 2 *R). The higher the current, the more exponentially the heat generated increases. However, existing current distributors have limited heat dissipation for the copper busbar, thus limiting the maximum current load of the current distributor. Furthermore, the copper busbar of existing current distributors is usually a one-piece structure, which requires the integral cutting of thick plates during production and processing, resulting in low material utilization. When a local part is damaged, the entire copper busbar often needs to be replaced, leading to high maintenance costs and long maintenance time.
[0004] Therefore, the applicant has made beneficial designs and found a way to solve the above problems. The technical solution to be introduced below is generated in this context. Utility Model Content
[0005] The present invention provides a high-current, high-heat-dissipation current distributor to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.
[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0007] A high-current, high-heat-dissipation current distributor includes several interconnected lower housings and several upper housings respectively mounted on top of the lower housings. Both the lower housings and the upper housings have internal cavities. Both the lower housings and the upper housings have several heat dissipation holes arranged in an array on their surfaces. A copper busbar is provided inside the internal cavity. One end of the copper busbar is connected to a busbar. Several plug-in pins are detachably provided on the copper busbar. Several screws are riveted to the copper busbar, and each screw is screwed with a nut.
[0008] Preferably, the busbar includes a wiring portion and a connecting portion one, and the plug-in pin includes a pin portion and a connecting portion two.
[0009] Preferably, both the first connecting part and the second connecting part are sleeved on the screw and fixed by nuts.
[0010] Beneficial effects
[0011] The above-mentioned technical solutions of one or more of the high-current, high-heat-dissipation current distributor provided in this embodiment of the utility model have at least one of the following technical effects:
[0012] This invention, through the aforementioned technical solution, effectively improves the heat dissipation of the copper busbar by providing several heat dissipation holes in the lower and upper housings. This maintains the operating temperature of the copper busbar below the same safe limit (ΔT_max), allowing a larger current (I) to flow through it. This is because a larger current generates more heat (Imax). 2 While the enhanced heat dissipation capability can offset this extra heat, allowing the copper busbar to allow a larger current to flow, and because the copper busbar and the plug pin are separate structures, they can be processed separately, making the manufacturing process easier. The copper busbar and the plug pin can be processed on different production lines at the same time, which greatly shortens the overall delivery cycle. Furthermore, if the plug pin is damaged, only the plug pin needs to be replaced instead of the entire copper busbar, reducing maintenance costs and time. Attached Figure Description

[0022] To avoid excessive and unnecessary details, well-known structures or functions will not be described in detail in the following embodiments.
[0023] like Figure 1-4 The diagram shown is a structural schematic of a high-current, high-heat-dissipation current distributor according to a preferred embodiment of the present invention.
[0024] In this embodiment, several interconnected lower housings and several upper housings respectively mounted on top of the lower housings are included. The lower housings 1 and upper housings 2 are fixed together by screws. Both the lower housings 1 and upper housings 2 have an internal cavity 3. Several heat dissipation holes 4 are arrayed on the surfaces of both the lower housings 1 and upper housings 2. A copper busbar 5 is located inside the internal cavity 3. The heat dissipation holes 4 are used to dissipate the heat generated by the copper busbar 5 from inside the internal cavity 3. One end of the copper busbar 5 is connected to a busbar 6. Several plug-in pins 7 are detachably provided on the copper busbar 5. Several screws 8 are riveted to the copper busbar 5, and each screw 8 is screwed with a nut 9. By providing several heat dissipation holes 4 in the lower housings 1 and upper housings 2, the heat dissipation effect of the copper busbar 5 can be effectively improved, and the operating temperature of the copper busbar 5 can be maintained below the same safety limit (ΔT_max). This allows a larger current (I) to flow through the copper busbar 5. Because a larger current generates more heat (I... 2However, the enhanced heat dissipation capacity can just offset this extra heat, allowing the copper busbar 5 to allow a larger current to flow. Since the copper busbar 5 and the plug pin 7 are separate structures, the copper busbar 5 and the plug pin 7 can be processed separately, which makes the production and processing more difficult. The copper busbar 5 and the plug pin 7 can be processed on different production lines at the same time, which greatly shortens the overall delivery cycle. Furthermore, if the plug pin 7 is damaged, only the plug pin 7 needs to be replaced instead of the entire copper busbar 5, reducing maintenance costs and time.
[0025] In this embodiment, the busbar 6 includes a wiring part 10 and a first connection part 11. The first connection part 11 is used to connect to the copper busbar 5. The plug-in pin 7 includes a pin part 12 and a second connection part 13. The pin part 12 is used to connect to external devices, and the second connection part 13 is used to connect to the copper busbar 5.
[0026] In this embodiment, both the first connecting part 11 and the second connecting part 13 are sleeved on the screw 8 and fixed by tightening the nut 9. This structure is used for the connection and fixation between the busbar 6, the copper busbar 5, and the plug-in pin 7.
[0027] The present invention relates to a high-current, high-heat-dissipation current distributor. Its installation, connection, or setting methods are all common mechanical methods, and any method that can achieve its beneficial effects can be implemented.
[0028] All technologies not described in detail in this utility model are known technologies. Those skilled in the art can easily implement this utility model based on their understanding of this specification, and the contents shown in the accompanying drawings are part of this specification.
