Arrangement and method for a vehicle inverter drive
View Patent ↗A method and arrangement are disclosed for a vehicle inverter drive having a voltage distribution block and two or more inverters, intermediate circuits of which are connected in parallel to the voltage distribution block for supplying voltage to the intermediate circuits, in which the intermediate circuits of the inverters are interconnected with a coaxial cable to minimize inductance in the parallel connection.
1. An arrangement for a vehicle inverter drive, the arrangement comprising:
a voltage distribution block;
two or more inverters, intermediate circuits of which are connected in a parallel connection to the voltage distribution block for supplying voltage to the intermediate circuits; and
a coaxial cable for interconnecting the intermediate circuits of the inverters to reduce inductance in the parallel connection.
2. An arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the coaxial cable is an armored single-phase cable, the armoring of which acts as another conductor.
3. An arrangement as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a cross-sectional area of the armoring is half or more than half of a cross-sectional area of a phase conductor of the single-phase cable.
4. An arrangement as claimed claim 1 , wherein the inverters comprise:
linking connectors connected to poles of the intermediate circuits of the inverters, the linking connectors of different inverters being interconnected with a coaxial cable.
5. An arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the intermediate circuits of the inverters are connected to the voltage distribution block with coaxial cables.
6. An arrangement as claimed claim 2 , wherein the inverters comprise:
linking connectors connected to poles of the intermediate circuits of the inverters, the linking connectors of different inverters being interconnected with a coaxial cable.
7. An arrangement as claimed in claim 2 , wherein the intermediate circuits of the inverters are connected to the voltage distribution block with coaxial cables.
8. An arrangement as claimed claim 3 , wherein the inverters comprise:
linking connectors connected to poles of the intermediate circuits of the inverters, the linking connectors of different inverters being interconnected with a coaxial cable.
9. An arrangement as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the intermediate circuits of the inverters are connected to the voltage distribution block with coaxial cables.
10. A method for a vehicle inverter drive having a voltage distribution block and two or more inverters, intermediate circuits of which are connected in parallel connection to the voltage distribution block, the method comprising:
supplying voltage from the voltage distribution block to the intermediate circuits; and
interconnecting the intermediate circuits of the inverters via a coaxial cable for reducing inductance in the parallel connection.
