Description
Technical Field

[0002] In recent years, global energy shortages and environmental pollution have become increasingly severe, drawing significant attention to distributed energy sources such as wind and solar power due to their clean energy characteristics. Against the backdrop of my country's sustained economic development, large-scale development of distributed energy has become a crucial strategy for alleviating the energy supply and demand imbalance. However, the intermittent and fluctuating nature of wind and solar power generation poses a severe challenge to grid stability when connected on a large scale. Therefore, current renewable energy power plants generally require the installation of energy storage systems of a certain capacity to mitigate power fluctuations, achieve peak-valley regulation, stabilize voltage, and improve power quality.
[0003] With the rapid development of the energy storage industry, energy storage inverters have gradually become key equipment, and their core component, the energy storage power module, occupies an extremely important position in the entire system. However, because energy storage power modules are usually exposed to harsh environments such as alternating high and low temperatures, high humidity, and dust for extended periods, their failure rate is relatively high, necessitating improvements in heat dissipation and protection performance. Currently, energy storage power modules generally use air cooling. However, during long-term operation, the fans used for air cooling require regular maintenance, and the air ducts and heat sink fins also need to be cleaned of foreign objects, increasing maintenance costs. In addition, energy storage power modules and their associated air ducts and air filters occupy a large amount of space, resulting in low heat dissipation efficiency.

[0036] To address the technical problem of low heat dissipation efficiency in the aforementioned energy storage power modules, this utility model provides an energy storage power module and an energy storage inverter. In a first aspect, this utility model provides an energy storage power module, please refer to... Figures 1-2 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of an energy storage power module provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of an IGBT module provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The energy storage power module includes a mounting bracket 10, a liquid cooling plate 20 mounted in the middle of the mounting bracket 10, a first IGBT module 31 and a second IGBT module 32 disposed on the liquid cooling plate 20, and an input stacked busbar 41, an intermediate connecting copper busbar 42 and an AC output copper busbar 43 disposed above the first IGBT module 31 and the second IGBT module 32. The first end 311 of the first IGBT module is connected to the input stacked busbar 41, and the second end 312 of the first IGBT module is connected to the first end 421 of the intermediate connecting copper busbar.

A drive control board 50 is disposed above the second IGBT module 32, and the drive control board 50 is fixedly connected to the liquid cooling plate 20 through a first support column 61.
[0037] Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, the energy storage power module uses a liquid-cooled plate 20 as the core heat dissipation device. Compared with the traditional air-cooled heat dissipation method, it has higher heat dissipation efficiency, effectively reducing the heat generated by the power module during operation. This ensures that the components on the liquid-cooled plate 20 can maintain a low temperature even under high load operation, reducing the impact of overheating on the performance and lifespan of the energy storage power module, and improving the overall reliability and stability of the equipment. The first IGBT module 31 and the second IGBT module 32 are efficiently electrically connected through the input stacked busbar 41, the intermediate connecting copper busbar 42, and the AC output copper busbar 43. This not only reduces the complexity of the connection lines and lowers line losses, but also effectively avoids electrical interference and improves the electrical performance of the system. In addition, the drive control board 50 of the energy storage power module is fixedly connected to the liquid-cooled plate 20 through the first support column 61, simplifying the structure of the components, facilitating later fault detection and replacement maintenance, and improving the maintainability and long-term operational reliability of the energy storage power module.
[0038] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a mounting bracket provided in an embodiment of the present invention. The mounting bracket 10 includes a first mounting plate 11, a first side plate 12 and a second side plate 13 perpendicularly connected to the first mounting plate 11, and a handle 14 disposed on the outside of the first mounting plate 11.

The mounting bracket 10 also includes a first support bracket 15 and a second support bracket 16, which are respectively connected to the first side plate 12 and the second side plate 13. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the mounting bracket 10 forms a stable frame structure through the combined design of the first mounting plate 11, the first side plate 12, the second side plate 13, the first support bracket 15, and the second support bracket 16. This structure effectively enhances the overall support of the mounting bracket, ensuring the firmness and stability of the liquid cooling plate 20 and other components during installation, and avoiding damage to the components caused by vibration or external force. In addition, a handle 14 is provided on the outside of the first mounting plate 11, which makes the installation and disassembly of the energy storage power module more convenient and quick.
[0039] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figure 1 and Figure 3An insulating beam 70 is connected to the side of the liquid cooling plate 20 near the input busbar 41. The input busbar 41 is mounted on the top of the insulating beam 70, and the insulating beam 70 is an integrally formed L-shaped insulating profile 71. The L-shaped insulating profile 71 includes a horizontal panel 711 and a vertical panel 712 perpendicularly connected to the horizontal panel 711. The two ends of the horizontal panel 711 are respectively connected to the first support bracket 15 and the second support bracket 16, and the vertical panel 712 is connected to the side of the liquid cooling plate 20 near the input busbar 41. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the insulating beam 70 adopts an L-shaped insulating profile 71, which ensures electrical isolation between the liquid cooling plate 20 and the input busbar 41, effectively avoiding equipment damage caused by electrical short circuits or leakage.
[0040] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figure 2 The input busbar 41 is equipped with an absorption capacitor 73, which is connected to the first terminal 311 of the first IGBT module. Specifically, in this embodiment of the invention, during the IGBT device's turn-on and turn-off processes, voltage spikes or oscillations often occur in the circuit due to the presence of parasitic inductance and capacitance. The absorption capacitor 73 can quickly absorb these voltage spikes, suppressing surges and effectively protecting the first IGBT module from overvoltage impacts, thereby improving its operational reliability and service life.
[0041] As a further improvement of this invention, both the first IGBT module 31 and the second IGBT module 32 are type I three-level topologies. Specifically, in this embodiment, the type I three-level topology, by introducing an additional voltage level, can produce a smoother transition in the output voltage waveform and reduce harmonic components in the voltage waveform.
[0042] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figure 3 The intermediate connecting copper busbar 42 is provided with a first balancing copper busbar 441 and a second balancing copper busbar 442, and the first balancing copper busbar 441 and the second balancing copper busbar 442 are staggered and overlapped on the intermediate connecting copper busbar 42. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, each intermediate connecting copper busbar 42 is independently arranged, and the first balancing copper busbar 441 and the second balancing copper busbar 442 can be staggered and overlapped on the intermediate connecting copper busbar 42, so that the current distribution is more uniform, avoiding local current overload, thereby ensuring the stable operation of each electrical component.
[0043] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figure 4 , Figure 4This is a schematic diagram of a gate plate provided in an embodiment of the present invention. A first gate plate 81 and a second gate plate 82 are respectively disposed on the first IGBT module 31 and the second IGBT module 32, and the first gate plate 81 and the second gate plate 82 are electrically connected to the drive control board 50. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, since the first gate plate 81 and the second gate plate 82 control the first IGBT module and the second IGBT module respectively, the drive control board 50 can adjust the switching behavior of each IGBT module according to actual needs, providing a more flexible control strategy.
[0044] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figure 1 and 3 A first dustproof plate 83 and a second dustproof plate 84 are respectively provided above the first gate plate 81 and the second gate plate 82. The first dustproof plate 83 is connected to the liquid cooling plate 20 through a first support column 61. The end of the second dustproof plate 84 near the first side plate is connected to the drive control board 50 through an insulating column 63, and the end of the second dustproof plate 84 near the second side plate is connected to the liquid cooling plate 20 through a second support column 62. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, since the first gate plate 81 and the second gate plate 82 are directly connected to the drive control board 50, if their surfaces are covered with dust or dirt, it may lead to a decrease in electrical performance, or even cause a short circuit or malfunction. Setting up dustproof plates can effectively isolate external pollution and reduce the risk of electrical component failure.
[0045] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figure 1 The drive control board 50 is disposed on the side of the second IGBT module 32 near the first side plate 12, and the drive control board 50 is connected to the liquid cooling plate 20 via the first support column 61. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the drive control board 50 is disposed on the side of the second IGBT module 32 near the first side plate 12. This design effectively utilizes space, avoids wasting space inside the energy storage power module, and improves the integration between components. In addition, the drive control board 50 is connected to the liquid cooling plate 20 via the first support column 61, which allows the liquid flow to remove high temperatures, effectively utilizing the heat dissipation capacity of the liquid cooling plate 20 and ensuring that the drive control board 50 can maintain a suitable operating temperature during high-power operation.
[0046] For further improvements to this utility model, please refer to... Figures 1-2The liquid cooling plate 20 is respectively provided with an input insulating plate 91, an intermediate insulating plate 92, and an output insulating plate 93. The input insulating plate 91 is located below the connection between the input stacked busbar 41 and the first IGBT module 31. The intermediate insulating plate 92 is located below the connection between the intermediate connecting copper busbar 42 and the first IGBT module 31 and the second IGBT module 32, respectively. The output insulating plate 93 is located below the connection between the AC output copper busbar 43 and the second IGBT module 32, and the output insulating plate is threadedly connected to the first mounting plate. Specifically, in this embodiment of the present invention, the input insulating plate 91, the intermediate insulating plate 92, and the output insulating plate 93 serve as electrical isolation components, effectively isolating high-voltage and low-voltage areas and preventing short circuits caused by electrical faults or poor contact. The reasonable arrangement of these insulating plates ensures that no direct electrical contact occurs between different voltage sections, improving the safety of the entire energy storage power module.
[0047] On the other hand, this invention also provides an energy storage inverter, which incorporates the energy storage power module described above. Compared to traditional structures, the energy storage inverter of this invention has a more compact structure and higher heat dissipation efficiency.
