Description
Integrated transformer and three-port on-board charger that can utilize leakage inductance Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to a transformer, and in particular to an integrated transformer which can utilize leakage inductance and integrate multiple coils, and a three-port vehicle-mounted charger. Background Art
[0002] In existing on-board charger technology, the DC conversion circuit is generally divided into two stages. The front-stage circuit is a bidirectional high-voltage DC conversion circuit, whose output is connected to the on-board power battery and provides a high-voltage DC charging current. This circuit topology is generally an LLC resonant circuit, in which the resonant inductor and the main transformer are independent of each other and are used in the circuit as two discrete components. The rear-stage circuit is a low-voltage DC conversion circuit, whose input is connected in parallel with the on-board power battery to the output of the front-stage bidirectional high-voltage DC conversion circuit, and the output is connected to the low-voltage battery and other low-voltage loads. Its circuit topology is also often an LLC resonant circuit, in which the transformer and resonant inductor are independent of each other and are used as two discrete components. Referring to the circuit diagram of the existing on-board charger transformer shown in Figure 1, the two-stage DC conversion circuit has a total of two resonant inductors, two transformers, and a total of four power magnetic devices. For on-board integrated charging products, there are the following problems: 1. The total loss of multiple power magnetic devices is large, which is not conducive to improving product efficiency; 2. The multiple power magnetic devices generate severe heat overall, and the heat dissipation cost is high; 3. The total volume of multiple magnetic components is large, which is not conducive to the high power density and miniaturization development of the product; 4. The total cost of multiple magnetic components is high.
[0003] Although some transformers in existing technical solutions mention the use of leakage inductance as a resonant inductor, the following problems still exist: 1. The design and control of leakage inductance are relatively difficult; 2. In multi-level output applications such as in-vehicle charging products, the front- and rear-stage DC conversion circuits still require the use of more than two power magnetic devices, which results in relatively high power consumption and cost.

Referring to an embodiment shown in Figure 3, the integrated transformer includes a first C-shaped magnetic core 1 and a second C-shaped magnetic core 2. The two ends of the first C-shaped magnetic core 1 and the two ends of the second C-shaped magnetic core 2 are connected in pairs to form a closed magnetic ring. The first C-shaped magnetic core 1 is wound with a first winding W1 and a third winding W3, and the second C-shaped magnetic core 2 is wound with a second winding W2. The integrated transformer also includes a bypass magnetic core 3, which is arranged in the middle of the magnetic ring and divides the interior of the magnetic ring into a first chamber 4 and a second chamber 5.
[0056] The first winding W1 and the third winding W3 pass through the first cavity 4 on the left, while the second winding W2 passes through the second cavity 5 on the right. The first C-shaped magnetic core 1 and the second C-shaped magnetic core 2 form the main magnetic circuit, and the bypass magnetic core 3 forms the bypass magnetic circuit. By adjusting the magnetic circuit length, cross-sectional area, and magnetic permeability of the first C-shaped magnetic core 1, the second C-shaped magnetic core 2, the bypass magnetic core 3, and the magnetic flux adjustment block 6, the magnetic resistance of the magnetic flux adjustment block 6 and the magnetic resistance of the bypass magnetic core 3 are changed to control the excitation inductance of the first winding W1 and the leakage inductance of the first winding W1 to the second winding W2.

Referring to the principle block diagram of the on-board charger of the present invention shown in FIG8 , the three-port on-board charger also includes: a bidirectional high-voltage DC conversion circuit connected to the first winding W1, a primary-side conversion circuit connected to the second winding W2, and a low-voltage DC conversion circuit connected to the third winding W3. The magnetic path length, cross-sectional area, and magnetic permeability of the first C-shaped magnetic core 1, the second C-shaped magnetic core 2, the bypass magnetic core 3, and the flux regulating block 6 are used to change the magnetic resistance of the flux regulating block 6 and the bypass magnetic core 3, thereby controlling the excitation inductance of the first winding W1 and the leakage inductance of the first winding W1 to the second winding W2. FIG9 shows a circuit diagram of the on-board charger of the present invention.
[0094] The following application example is combined with an on-board charger.
[0095] 1. Referring to Figure 9, the circuit has three ports: Port A (connected to the PFC circuit), Port B (connected to the high-voltage battery pack), and Port C (connected to the low-voltage load within the vehicle). Ports A and B are both connected to the full-bridge circuit, while Port C is connected to the Buck converter for magnetic circuit decoupling. Therefore, when Port A transfers energy to Ports B and C simultaneously, the power received by Port B is determined by both Ports A and B. This allows for a variety of control methods, such as phase-shift control, variable frequency control, variable duty cycle control, or any combination of these. The Port C circuit chops the voltage on the low-voltage load side within the vehicle, meaning the received power is regulated by the duty cycle of S11.
[0096] 2. Take the A and B port circuits operating in DAB phase-shift control mode as an example. As shown in Figure 9, S1 and S4 have the same drive signal, and S2 and S3 have the same drive signal. Both drive signals have a duty cycle of 0.5, meaning they are on for 180 degrees and are complementary. It is important to note that a dead time should be added between these two drive signals to prevent the upper and lower transistors of the same bridge arm from conducting and causing a short circuit in the input source.
[0097] 3. As shown in Figure 9, S5, S8, and S10 have the same drive signal, and S6, S7, and S9 have the same drive signal. The duty cycle of these two drive signals is 0.5 and they are complementary. It is worth noting that a dead time should be added between these two drive signals to prevent the upper and lower transistors of the same bridge arm from being turned on, which would cause a short circuit on the output side and a short circuit on the low-voltage load side winding in the vehicle.
[0098] 4. Arms 1, 2, 3, and 4 operate in DAB mode. As shown in Figure 9, when port A transmits energy to port B, the drive signal of S5 must lag behind S1 by a certain phase Dps. Adjusting Dps adjusts the energy transfer from port A to port B. As shown in Figure 10, when port B transmits energy to port A, the drive signal of S1 must lag behind S5 by a certain phase Dps. Adjusting Dps adjusts the energy transfer from port B to port A.
[0099] 5. As shown in Figures 10 and 11, the drive signals for S9 and S10 both have a duty cycle of 0.5 and are phase-matched with the drive signals for S5 and S6, respectively. S11 switches at twice the frequency of the switching device at port A. Adjusting S11's duty cycle, Dbuck, regulates the power transfer to port C. S12 provides a freewheeling path for the inductor current, and its drive signal is complementary to that of S11. It is important to note that a dead time should be added between these two drive signals to prevent short-circuiting of the low-voltage load-side winding within the vehicle.
