Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of frequency converter technology, and in particular to a frequency converter. Background Technology

[0002] In the field of industrial production and automation control, frequency converters are key equipment for achieving motor speed regulation and energy-saving control.

[0003] A frequency converter is a power control device that uses frequency conversion technology and microelectronics to control the speed of an AC motor by changing the frequency and amplitude of the motor's power supply. The core of a frequency converter consists of a rectifier unit, a filter unit, an inverter unit, and a control unit. It first rectifies and filters the industrial frequency AC power into DC power, and then converts it into AC power with adjustable frequency and voltage through the inverter unit to achieve motor speed regulation. The operating stability and heat dissipation performance of the frequency converter directly affect the working efficiency and service life of the overall system.

[0004] While existing frequency converters achieve basic frequency conversion control functions, their heat dissipation structures are often simplistic, relying on basic ventilation holes or single heat dissipation components. This makes it difficult to quickly dissipate the large amounts of heat generated during operation, potentially leading to overheating and malfunctions in core components such as the internal control board, thus affecting operational stability. Furthermore, they lack effective shock absorption and protection mechanisms. In environments with vibrations during equipment transportation, installation, or operation, internal components are easily damaged by impacts, shortening the equipment's lifespan. Additionally, some frequency converters struggle to balance enclosure protection with heat dissipation; excessive protection hinders heat dissipation, while optimized heat dissipation may reduce the effectiveness of protection. Therefore, this paper proposes a new frequency converter to address these issues. Utility Model Content

[0032] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0033] Reference Figures 2-4 This utility model provides an embodiment of a frequency converter, including a rear housing 1 and a control main board 5. A front cover 2 is movably attached to the outer edge of the rear housing 1. The top and sides of the front cover 2 have several heat dissipation holes. The front cover 2 provides physical protection for the internal components of the frequency converter, while the heat dissipation holes on its top and sides allow for air convection, aiding in heat dissipation. A heat dissipation assembly 3 is provided on the back of the rear housing 1. The heat dissipation assembly 3 includes heat dissipation fins 31, the outer walls of which are fixedly connected to the inner surface of the back of the rear housing 1. Multiple heat dissipation fins 31 are provided, and the multiple heat dissipation fins 31 are evenly distributed. The multiple evenly spaced heat dissipation fins 31 greatly increase the surface area for heat exchange and effectively improve the rate of heat dissipation. A heat dissipation groove 32 is opened between the inner wall of the heat dissipation fin 31 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 4. The heat dissipation groove 32 provides space for heat flow and facilitates the conduction of heat from the fins to the external environment. A cooling fan 33 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the heat dissipation fin 31. The cooling fan 33 can quickly remove the heat on the heat dissipation fin 31 by forcing airflow, thereby enhancing the overall heat dissipation performance.

[0034] Reference Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 5 A mounting groove 4 is provided at the center of the outer surface of the inverter's rear housing 1. A mounting assembly 6 is provided between the mounting groove 4 and the control main board 5. The mounting assembly 6 includes a fixing bracket 61 and a connecting seat 62. The back of the fixing bracket 61 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the mounting groove 4. There are two fixing brackets 61, which are mirror images of each other along the central axis of the mounting groove 4. The front of the connecting seat 62 is fixedly connected to the back of the control main board 5. A buffer guide rod 63 is movably engaged between the fixing bracket 61 and the connecting seat 62. There are multiple buffer guide rods 63, which are evenly distributed along the length direction of both sides of the surface of the fixing bracket 61 and the connecting seat 62. A spring 64 is sleeved and connected to the outer side of the buffer guide rod 63. The combination of 63 and spring 64 can effectively buffer external vibration and impact, providing shock absorption and protection for the control motherboard 5 and ensuring its operational stability. Two exhaust fans 65 are fixedly connected to the back of the connector 62. The two exhaust fans 65 are mirrored along the central axis of the connector 62. The two exhaust fans 65 work together to accelerate the air circulation inside the mounting groove 4 and remove the heat around the control motherboard 5 in time. A heat-conducting plate 66 is fixedly connected to the inner side of the connector 62. The surface of the heat-conducting plate 66 is attached to the back of the control motherboard 5. The heat-conducting plate 66 has good thermal conductivity and can quickly conduct the heat generated by the control motherboard 5 to other heat dissipation components, preventing the control motherboard 5 from being damaged due to overheating.

[0035] Working principle: When the frequency converter is running, the control board 5 will generate a lot of heat. First, the heat conduction plate 66 attached to the back of the control board 5 will play its role. Its good heat conduction performance will quickly absorb the heat of the control board 5 and conduct it to the connector 62. At the same time, the two exhaust fans 65 on the back of the connector 62 are mirrored along the central axis and rotate together to accelerate the air circulation inside the mounting groove 4, so as to timely exhaust the heat conducted by the heat conduction plate 66 and the heat around the control board 5, and avoid the heat from accumulating in the mounting groove 4.

[0036] For the mounting component 6, the mounting bracket 61 is fixed to the inner wall of the mounting groove 4, and the connecting seat 62 is connected to the control main board 5. The multiple buffer guide rods 63 and the springs 64 sleeved on the outside of the two are movably connected to form a buffer structure. When the frequency converter is subjected to vibration, the buffer guide rods 63 and the springs 64 can effectively buffer the vibration impact, play a shock absorption and protection role for the control main board 5, ensure its operation in a stable environment, and indirectly facilitate the stable dissipation of heat.

[0037] Looking at the heat dissipation component 3, the multiple equally spaced heat dissipation fins 31 on the back of the inverter's rear housing 1 greatly increase the surface area for heat exchange. After heat is transferred from inside the inverter to the heat dissipation fins 31, the heat dissipation grooves 32 between the inner wall of the heat dissipation fins 31 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 4 provide a channel for heat flow, facilitating heat conduction from the fins to the external environment. At the same time, the cooling fans 33 on the upper surface of the heat dissipation fins 31 force airflow, quickly carrying away the heat from the heat dissipation fins 31, thus enhancing the overall heat dissipation performance.

[0038] In addition, the front cover 2 is movably attached to the outer edge of the rear cover 1 of the inverter, providing physical protection for the internal components of the inverter. Furthermore, several ventilation holes on its top and sides allow for air convection, aiding in heat dissipation. This, combined with the heat dissipation functions of the heat dissipation components 3 and 6, forms a multi-dimensional heat dissipation system, ensuring that the inverter maintains a suitable operating temperature during operation and guaranteeing its stable and efficient operation.

[0039] In summary, the inverter achieves efficient heat dissipation and stable operation through the shock absorption and protection of the mounting component 6, the local heat dissipation of the heat conduction plate 66 and the exhaust fan 65, the centralized heat dissipation of the heat dissipation fins 31 and the heat dissipation fan 33, and the auxiliary heat dissipation of the heat dissipation holes of the front cover 2.

[0040] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features.
