Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric vehicle controller technology, and in particular to a fixed connection structure for a filter capacitor in an electric vehicle controller. Background Technology

[0002] In the current market, two-wheeled and three-wheeled electric vehicles and electric motorcycles all use controllers to drive and control the motors. At the power input end inside the controller, electrolytic capacitors of sufficient capacity are required to provide noise reduction, filtering, voltage regulation and other functions for the controller, so as to achieve stable motor operation control.

[0003] Currently, the common method for installing filter capacitors in conventional controllers is to directly mount them onto the control board inside the controller. The positive and negative terminals of the power supply are fixed to the main control board by soldering wires to the holes. The surface of the main control board is covered with current-carrying copper strips, which are responsible for connecting the positive and negative terminals to each filter capacitor. However, using conventional methods usually requires laying a large area of ​​current-carrying copper strips, which is costly. The mixed installation of filter capacitors and control chips results in large ripple interference, serious heat generation, and affects the working stability of the control chip. Furthermore, the production of filter capacitor plug-in requires multiple current-carrying copper strips to connect the pins of each main capacitor, which is complex and results in low performance stability. Therefore, those skilled in the art provide a fixed connection structure for filter capacitors in electric vehicle controllers to solve the problems mentioned in the background art. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to address the shortcomings of existing technologies by proposing a fixed connection structure for the filter capacitor of an electric vehicle controller.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] A filter capacitor fixed connection structure for an electric vehicle controller includes a controller body, which is composed of a top cover and a base. The top cover is fixed to the base by bolts. The top cover has multiple openings, each containing the following components: three phase wire terminals, one positive terminal, one negative terminal, and a terminal block assembly. The base has capacitor placement slots, in which up to seven filter capacitors are arranged sequentially. The controller body has a filter capacitor connection plate inside, and the pins of the multiple filter capacitors are fixedly connected to the capacitor connection plate by hole welding.

[0007] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a power board is installed inside the main body of the controller, and a control board is fixed above the power board by bolts.

[0008] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the terminal block assembly is installed on the top of the control board by welding, and the three phase wire terminals, positive terminal, and negative terminal are all fixed to the base by bolts.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the filter capacitor connection plate has conductive copper foil on both the front and back sides, and the conductive copper foil circuit is used to connect the pins of each filter capacitor.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model, a circular copper foil electrode is provided at one end of the filter capacitor connection plate, and a circular copper foil electrode is provided at the other end of the capacitor connection plate. A circular opening is provided in the middle of both the circular copper foil electrode and the circular copper foil electrode.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model, the circular openings between the first and second circular copper foil electrodes at both ends of the capacitor connection plate are aligned with the fixing bolt holes on the positive and negative terminals that are connected to the power board, respectively. A base step one is installed on one side of the power board, and a base step two is installed on the other side of the power board. The filter capacitor connection plate is fixed on the base step one and the base step two.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0013] 1. Reduced costs and improved processability: By using PCB copper foil as conductive lines to connect all main capacitors, the current loop is short and the copper loss is low, which reduces material costs while improving processability and reliability.

[0014] 2. Improved Reliability: Traditional controllers use vertically plugged-in filter capacitors, which have long pin distances between each capacitor and high copper resistance at the positive and negative terminals, resulting in mediocre filtering capability, severe heat generation, and low stability. In contrast, the capacitor mounting method described in this patent solders the filter capacitor pins to the same circuit board in both directions, resulting in a shorter direct distance between the filter capacitor pins and the power supply terminals, stronger ripple absorption capability, and more stable overall controller reliability.

[0015] 3. Enhanced safety performance: Traditional controllers use a shared PCB between the filter capacitor and the control chip. Ripple current causes the filter capacitor to generate high temperatures, and the electromagnetic radiation generated by the ripple current reduces the safety of the control chip, resulting in high safety risks. The capacitor mounting method described in this patent mounts the filter capacitor as an independent module, which is in close contact with the aluminum base. This facilitates heat dissipation of the filter capacitor and reduces electromagnetic radiation interference to the control chip. Attached Figure Description
