Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive suspension control technology, and specifically refers to an automotive suspension control system. Background Technology

[0002] In existing active suspension technologies, rapid raising and lowering of the suspension is achieved by controlling the forward and reverse rotation of the motor through a controller, or by generating electricity through the forward and reverse rotation of the motor. However, existing motor controller products are large in size and contain a variety of components. They all adopt a multi-PCBA stacked design, including various control boards, drive power boards, structural boards, etc., which are connected by wiring harnesses or board-to-board connectors. Currently, this type of design has a complex assembly process, low production efficiency, high material and production costs, and a high risk of various failures.

[0003] In addition, most current technical solutions share the same heat dissipation system for power devices and motors, which means that the power capacity of the power devices cannot be fully utilized due to the influence of motor temperature. Low-power applications require the selection of high-cost, low-loss high-power devices, and the high material cost leads to a high system cost, which limits the market promotion of active suspension. Utility Model Content

[0004] This utility model provides a vehicle suspension control system, which mainly solves the problems of complex assembly, large number of circuit boards, large product size and poor heat dissipation in the prior art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution: The upper housing has a mounting cavity; The drive control board is provided with multiple electrical interfaces. The drive control board is detachably mounted on the upper housing. The upper housing is provided with a first heat dissipation protrusion and a first mounting position is provided on the first heat dissipation protrusion. A power unit is detachably mounted on a first mounting position of the first heat dissipation protrusion. The power unit has multiple pins and is connected to the drive control board through the multiple pins. The first heat dissipation protrusion has a first heat dissipation surface and abuts against the power unit. The lower housing has a drive motor mounted on it. The lower housing is detachably connected to the upper housing. The drive control board is communicatively connected to the drive motor.

[0006] In some embodiments, the upper housing is provided with a first clearance groove, and the drive control board is provided with a first component unit. The first clearance groove corresponds to the position of the first component unit, and the first component unit is partially located in the first clearance groove.

[0007] In some embodiments, a heat dissipation module is also provided on the outer side of the upper housing. The heat dissipation module includes a plurality of spaced heat dissipation fins, which are disposed on the surface of the upper housing.

[0008] In some embodiments, a low-voltage interface and a high-voltage interface are also provided on the outside of the upper housing, both of which are electrically connected to the drive control board.

[0009] In some embodiments, a low-pressure adapter plate is also included in the mounting cavity of the upper housing. The low-pressure adapter plate has a plate-like structure, and the low-pressure interface is connected to the drive control board through the low-pressure adapter plate.

[0010] In some embodiments, the system also includes a resilient socket disposed on the drive control board and a first plug disposed on the lower housing. The first plug is electrically connected to the drive motor. When the upper housing is assembled onto the lower housing, the first plug is inserted into the resilient socket.

[0011] In some embodiments, an encoder board is also included, which is disposed within the lower housing. The drive control board is electrically connected to the drive motor through the encoder board. A first cover plate is provided on the side of the lower housing near the encoder board, and the first cover plate is detachably connected to the lower housing.

[0012] In some embodiments, the drive control board has a high-voltage area, and the power module is disposed near the high-voltage area of ​​the drive control board.

[0013] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: This application integrates various functional components from existing technologies onto a single, highly integrated drive control board, reducing the overall size of the device and simplifying the assembly process. Furthermore, a first heat dissipation protrusion with a first heat dissipation surface is provided on the upper housing. The power unit is detachably connected to this protrusion and directly contacts the first heat dissipation surface for heat dissipation, separating its heat dissipation from that of the drive motor. This separates the heat dissipation from the drive motor, improving the power unit's heat dissipation efficiency and preventing the drive motor's temperature from affecting the power unit, thus maximizing the power unit's functionality.

[0014] Additional aspects and advantages of this application will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and will become apparent from the description or may be learned by practice of this application. Attached Figure Description

[0016] The present application will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the description of the embodiments, unless otherwise stated, the terms "left", "right", etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present application and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the present application must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation on the present application.

[0017] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 as well as Figure 4 As shown, this utility model provides a vehicle suspension control system, which mainly includes an upper housing 100, a drive control board 105, and a lower housing 200.

[0018] Specifically, the upper housing 100 is provided with a mounting cavity for mounting the drive control board 105. The drive control board 105 is detachably mounted on the upper housing 100 and has multiple electrical interfaces. These interfaces can be connected to the vehicle's low-voltage and high-voltage systems, to various motor signal acquisition signals, and to various oil temperature and oil pressure signal acquisition signals. In this embodiment, the drive control board 105 is secured using threaded holes and screws or bolts. A power unit 104 is connected to the drive control board 105. A first heat dissipation protrusion 101 is provided inside the upper housing 100. Figure 4 As shown, the first heat dissipation boss 101 corresponds to the power unit 104. A first heat dissipation surface is provided on the first heat dissipation boss 101. The power unit 104 is fixed to the first heat dissipation surface of the first heat dissipation boss 101 by screws or bolts. The heat dissipation surface of the power unit 104 abuts against the first heat dissipation surface for direct heat dissipation. The lower housing 200 is detachably connected to the upper housing 100. The specific connection method is to lock and fix it through screw thread holes or through-hole bolt nut structure. A drive motor 201 is provided in the lower housing 200. The drive control board 105 communicates with the drive motor 201, thereby realizing the forward and reverse rotation control of the drive motor 201 by the drive control board 105, realizing the lifting of the vehicle suspension. The specific lifting structure of the vehicle suspension is existing technology and will not be described in detail here.

[0019] This application solves the problem of complex assembly structures of multiple boards in the prior art by setting a highly integrated drive control board 105, which integrates multiple board modules that perform multiple functions on a single drive control board 105. At the same time, by setting a first heat dissipation boss 101, on which a first heat dissipation surface is provided, the power unit 104 can be directly and detachably mounted on the first heat dissipation surface, which can realize direct heat dissipation of the power unit 104. The heat dissipation of the power unit 104 is separated from the heat dissipation structure of the drive motor 201 and carried out separately. On the one hand, the heat dissipation efficiency is improved, and on the other hand, the large amount of heat generated by the drive motor 201 can be avoided from affecting the power unit 104, so that the power unit 104 can be maximized.

[0020] Specifically, a first mounting position is provided on the first heat dissipation boss 101, and the power unit 104 is detachably mounted on the first heat dissipation boss 101, such as... Figure 4 As shown, the power unit 104 has multiple first pins 1041, which electrically connect the power unit 104 to the drive control board 105. Specifically, the first heat dissipation boss 101 has threaded holes for fixing the power unit 104, and the power unit 104 has corresponding fixing holes. The power unit 104 is locked and fixed by screws and washers. The drive control board 105 has multiple connection holes, and the first pins 1041 of the power unit 104 correspond to the positions of the multiple connection holes. The first pins 1041 can be inserted into the connection holes. At the same time, the first pins 1041 are fixed to the connection holes by soldering, which can prevent the first pins 1041 from being loosely connected. In the specific assembly, the power unit 104 is first installed on the first heat dissipation platform 101 of the upper housing 100, and then the drive control board 105 is installed on the upper housing 100.

[0021] In one embodiment, a first clearance groove 102 is provided on the inner side of the upper housing 100, and a first component unit 1051 is provided on the drive control board 100. The position of the first clearance groove 102 corresponds to the position of the first component unit 1051, and a portion of the first component unit 1051 can be located within the first clearance groove 102. Specifically, as shown... Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the first component unit 1051 includes, but is not limited to, bus capacitors and common mode inductors, which protrude a certain height relative to the drive control board 105. In order to avoid these protruding first component units 1051 occupying the installation space of the drive motor 201 on the lower housing 200, the first component unit 1051 is set on the drive control board 105 on the side close to the upper housing 100. At the same time, a first clearance groove 102 is provided so that these protruding components are located in the first clearance groove 102, making the entire device installation structure compact and occupying a small volume.

[0022] Furthermore, a portion of the first component unit 1051 abuts against the first clearance groove 102, thereby allowing the heat generated by the first component unit 1051 to be directly discharged to the outside through the upper housing 100. Specifically, the contact surface of the first component unit 1051 is its heat dissipation surface protruding in the height direction relative to the drive control board 105.

[0023] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 As shown, a heat dissipation module is also provided on the outer side of the upper housing 100. The heat dissipation module includes a plurality of spaced-apart heat dissipation fins 106 disposed on the outer surface of the upper housing 100. By setting the spaced-apart heat dissipation fins 106, heat exchange with the outside is accelerated, ensuring that the temperature rise of the power unit 104 operates within a reasonable range. In this embodiment, the heat dissipation fins 106 can be distributed laterally, longitudinally, or alternately on the outer surface of the upper housing 100, all of which can achieve uniform and rapid heat dissipation.

[0024] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a low-voltage interface 107 and a high-voltage interface 108 disposed on the outside of the upper housing 100. Both the low-voltage interface 107 and the high-voltage interface 108 are electrically connected to the drive control board 105. The low-voltage interface 107 can be connected to an external low-voltage power supply, and the high-voltage interface 108 can be connected to an external high-voltage power supply.

[0025] In one embodiment, to reduce the volume occupied by the upper housing 100 and the overall space occupied by the device, a low-voltage adapter plate 103 is provided in the mounting cavity of the upper housing 100. The low-voltage adapter plate 103 is connected to an external low-voltage interface 107 and is also connected to the drive control board 105. In this embodiment, the low-voltage adapter plate 103 is a thin plate structure and is arranged parallel to the drive control board 105, thereby reducing the mounting space of the upper housing 100 in the plane perpendicular to the drive control board 105 and further reducing the volume of the upper housing 100.

[0026] In one embodiment, the drive control board 105 is provided with a flexible socket 1052, such as Figure 3As shown, a corresponding first plug 203 is provided on the lower housing 200. The drive motor 201 is electrically connected to the first plug 203. The elastic socket 1052 has a Y-shaped structure, which can guide the first plug 203 during the insertion process. The first plug 203 and the elastic socket 1052 are in corresponding positions. When the upper housing 100 is installed on the lower housing 200, the first plug 203 located in the lower housing 200 can be directly inserted into the elastic socket 1052, realizing blind insertion of the first plug 203, thereby realizing the electrical connection between the drive control board 105 and the drive motor 201.

[0027] In one embodiment, such as Figure 2 As shown, the system also includes an encoder board 204 disposed within the lower housing 200. The drive control board 105 is electrically connected to the drive motor 201 via the encoder board 204. A first cover plate 202 is provided on the side of the lower housing 200 near the encoder board 204. The first cover plate 202 is detachably connected to the lower housing 200. The detachable connection method of the first cover plate 202 includes, but is not limited to, threaded hole screw structure, nut, or through hole structure. By providing the first cover plate 202, the installation and maintenance of the encoder board 204 can be facilitated.

[0028] In one embodiment, the drive control board 105 has a high-voltage region, and the power unit 104 is disposed near the high-voltage region side of the drive control board 105. By placing the power unit 104 on the high-voltage region side, only basic insulation from the low-voltage power supply (flyback power supply) and communication circuits is required; most other circuits only require functional insulation, significantly reducing the board space. Compared to basic insulation, functional insulation has lower requirements for electrical clearances and creepage distances, allowing for a more compact board layout and further reducing board space.

[0029] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various improvements and modifications without departing from the principle of this utility model. These improvements and modifications should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model.
