[0073] The first relay 600 and the second relay 700 receive external control signals and control the attracted and separated states of the first coil 640 of the first relay 600 and the second coil 740 of the second relay 700 respectively, thereby realizing the regulation of the voltage. In a possible implementation, when the voltage inputted by the third external terminal 510 at the end of the external copper bar 500 cannot meet the charging requirement of the battery pack, the first coil 640 of the first relay 600 and the second coil 740 of the second relay 700 are controlled to be in different attracted states by receiving the electrical signal, thereby realizing the parallel connection of the bus capacitor 200 and the boost capacitor 300.

The second signal terminal 150 is connected to the second relay 700, and the second coil 740 of the second relay 700 is controlled to be attracted or separated by receiving a signal through the second signal terminal 150.

[0075] It can be understood that the first signal terminal 140 is connected to the first relay 600. When the external control circuit sends a specific signal to the first signal terminal 140, the signal is transmitted to the first coil 640 of the first relay 600, thereby controlling the first coil 640 to be attracted or separated. Similarly, the second signal terminal 150 is connected to the second relay 700. By sending a signal to the second signal terminal 150, the external control circuit can control the second coil 740 of the second relay 700 to be attracted or separated. In this way, the first relay 600 and the second relay 700 can work independently according to external instructions, or work cooperatively to achieve more complex circuit control logic.

[0076] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the motor control system further comprises a first lead wire 910 and a second lead wire 920.

The second lead wire 920 is connected to the external copper bar 500. By collecting voltage data on the external copper bar 500 through the second lead wire 920, the attraction or separation state of the first coil 640 and the second coil 740 controlled by the first signal terminal 140 and the second signal terminal 150 can be determined according to the voltage information collected by the second lead wire 920, so as to meet the load demand of the external circuit.

By connecting the IGBT to the motor control system, the energy generated during the switching process of the IGBT can be effectively absorbed and stored, thereby slowing down the fluctuation speed of the current and voltage and reducing the switching loss and electromagnetic interference. The collector of the IGBT is connected to the positive terminal 110 on the shell 100, and the emitter of the IGBT is connected to the negative terminal 120 on the shell 100 to ensure that the IGBT can be correctly connected to the circuit. By connecting to the bus capacitor, the inductance parameter of the IGBT can be reduced, which helps to weaken the peak voltage of the bus and further protect the circuit.

[0080] In some embodiments of the present disclosure, the inside of the shell 100 is provided with a cooling channel (not shown in the figure), which is used to dissipate heat for the IGBT and the boost capacitor 300, the bus capacitor 200, the protection circuit 800, the first relay 600, and the second relay 700 located in the accommodating cavity.
