Abstract

The present invention provides a heat dissipating system for an electric vehicle drive controller. The heat dissipating system for electric vehicle drive controller includes: high power MOS transistors for controlling magnitude of power supplied to an electric vehicle drive motor and for switching current direction, and a radiator connected to bodies of the MOS transistors, the radiator being made of aluminum alloy material, and a surface of the radiator being plated with a metallic nickel layer. Compared with existing electric vehicle drive controller, the electric vehicle drive controller of the present invention has advantages of low operating temperature, high reliability and long service life.

Claims (7)

1. A heat dissipating system for an electric vehicle drive controller, comprising:

high power MOS transistors for controlling magnitude of power supplied to an electric vehicle drive motor and for switching current direction, and

a radiator connected to bodies of the MOS transistors, the radiator being made of aluminum alloy material and serving as a conductor connected to the MOS transistors, and a surface of the radiator being plated with a metallic nickel layer, wherein the metallic nickel layer keeps a contact resistance between the high power MOS transistors and the radiator low and prevents an alumina layer from forming on the radiator.

2. The heat dissipating system for an electric vehicle drive controller according to claim 1 , wherein the nickel layer has a thickness of 3-10 μm.

3. The heat dissipating system for an electric vehicle drive controller according to claim 2 , wherein the radiator connected with the MOS transistors is pressed on a heat dissipating base plate, with a silicon fabric of good thermal conductivity padded between the radiator and the heat dissipating base plate.

4. The heat dissipating system for an electric vehicle drive controller according to claim 1 , wherein the radiator connected with the MOS transistors is pressed on a heat dissipating base plate, with a silicon fabric of good thermal conductivity padded between the radiator and the heat dissipating base plate.

5. The heat dissipating system for an electric vehicle drive controller according to claim 1 , wherein each of the high power MOS transistors has a junction resistance lower than or equal to 0.006 ohm.
