Inverter with internal/external ferromagnetic cores
An inverter having a first busbar for connection to a positive pole of a battery and a second busbar for connection to a negative pole of the battery and a filter element that includes an annular core surrounding the first and the second busbar and made from a ferromagnetic material. It is proposed that a core made from a further ferromagnetic material to be provided in an intermediate space surrounded by the annular core and formed between the two busbars.
1. An inverter comprising:
a first busbar connected to a positive pole of a battery;
a second busbar separately formed and arranged apart from the first busbar, and connected to a negative pole of the battery; and
a filter for reducing common-mode and differential-mode interference that includes an annular core surrounding the first and the second busbars and made from a ferromagnetic material,
wherein another core made from a further ferromagnetic material is provided between the first and second busbars with a spacing in an intermediate space surrounded by the annular core and the first and second busbars, and
the first and second busbars have recesses that point toward one another and that surround the another core in sections.
2. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein the spacing includes a predefined first spacing between the another core and each of inner sides of the annular core facing to each other.
3. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein the spacing includes a predefined second spacing between the another core and each side of the first and second busbars.
4. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein the annular core includes a pass-through surface having a substantial rectangle shape in which the first and second busbars and the another core are arranged, and
the first and second busbars are spaced apart from each other and the recesses of the first and second busbars are recessed opposite to each other to form the intermediate space, and the another core is arranged apart from the pass-through surface and the first and second busbars through the spacing.
5. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the ferromagnetic or and the further ferromagnetic material has a first relative permeability μ rl >10 3 .
6. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein the another core is held in the annular core by way of a holding device, wherein the holding device is formed from a material having a second relative permeability μ r2 <10.
7. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein a holding device is formed from a plastic.
8. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein the annular core is a toroidal core made from a nanocrystalline ferromagnetic material.
9. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein at least one of the ferromagnetic and the further ferromagnetic material is a ferrimagnetic material.
10. An inverter according to claim 1 , wherein the annular core has a circular, oval or substantially rectangular pass-through surface.
11. An inverter according to claim 4 , wherein an electric current flows from the positive pole of the battery through the first busbar in one direction and flows toward the negative pole of the battery through the second busbar in another direction opposite to the one direction.
12. An inverter according to claim 1 , further comprising a power inverter connected to the filter at a downstream of the filter, and including an intermediate circuit capacitor having an input terminal to which the first busbar is connected, and an output terminal to which the second busbar is connected, and half bridges to which the first and second busbars are connected at a downstream of the intermediate circuit capacitor, each of the half bridges including two power transistors.
