Abstract

The present application relates to the technical field of semiconductor, and in particular to an inverter. The inverter provided by the present application includes a substrate, a discrete device and a heat conducting component. The discrete device and the heat conducting component are both arranged on the substrate. A part of the heat conducting component is located in an area of the substrate where the discrete device is provided, and another part of the heat conducting component is located in an area of the substrate where the discrete device is not provided. The heat conducting component may rapidly transfer the heat of the overheated area of the substrate where the discrete device is mounted to the less hot area of the substrate, and promote the heat generated by the discrete device to spread evenly to the substrate.

Claims (15)

1 . An inverter, comprising a substrate ( 1 ) and a discrete device ( 3 ), the discrete device ( 3 ) being arranged on the substrate ( 1 ),

wherein the inverter further comprises a heat conducting component ( 4 ), the heat conducting component ( 4 ) is arranged on the substrate ( 1 ), a part of the heat conducting component ( 4 ) is located in an area of the substrate ( 1 ) where the discrete device ( 3 ) is provided, and another part of the heat conducting component ( 4 ) is located in an area of the substrate ( 1 ) where no discrete device ( 3 ) is provided.

2 . The inverter according to claim 1 , wherein a heat conducting component mounting groove ( 11 ) is defined on the substrate ( 1 ), the heat conducting component ( 4 ) is arranged in the heat conducting component mounting groove ( 11 ), and a side wall of the heat conducting component mounting groove ( 11 ) is bonded with the heat conducting component ( 4 ) by an adhesive.

3 . The inverter according to claim 2 , wherein a thickness of the substrate ( 1 ) at a position where the heat conducting component mounting groove ( 11 ) is defined is greater than a thickness of the substrate ( 1 ) at a position where the heat conducting component mounting groove ( 11 ) is not defined.

4 . The inverter according to claim 2 , further comprising

a mounting assembly ( 5 ), wherein the mounting assembly ( 5 ) is configured to fix the discrete device ( 3 ) onto the substrate ( 1 ) on which the heat conducting component ( 4 ) is mounted.

5 . The inverter according to claim 4 , wherein the mounting assembly ( 5 ) comprises

a heat conducting gasket ( 51 ), wherein the discrete device ( 3 ) is placed on the heat conducting gasket ( 51 ) and the heat conducting gasket ( 51 ) is in contact with the heat conducting component ( 4 );

a pressing sheet ( 52 ) which is placed on one or more of the discrete device ( 3 ); and

a fixing member ( 53 ) which is configured to fix the pressing sheet ( 52 ) to the substrate ( 1 ).

6 . The inverter according to claim 5 , wherein a gasket mounting groove ( 12 ) is defined on the substrate ( 1 ), a bottom surface of the heat conducting component mounting groove ( 11 ) is flush with a top surface of the heat conducting component ( 4 ), and the heat conducting gasket ( 51 ) is placed in the gasket mounting groove ( 12 ) and above the heat conducting component ( 4 ).

7 . The inverter according to claim 6 , wherein a side of the heat conducting gasket ( 51 ) in contact with the gasket mounting groove ( 12 ) is coated with a thermal conductive adhesive, and a side of the heat conducting gasket ( 51 ) in contact with the discrete device ( 3 ) is also coated with the thermal conductive adhesive.

8 . The inverter according to claim 5 , wherein a protrusion ( 522 ) is provided on a side of the pressing sheet ( 52 ) close to the discrete device ( 3 ), and the protrusion ( 522 ) is pressed against the discrete device ( 3 ).

9 . The inverter according to claim 1 , further comprising a heat sink ( 2 ) arranged on the substrate ( 1 ) and configured to dissipate heat from the substrate ( 1 ).

10 . The inverter according to claim 1 , further comprising a temperature detection component ( 8 ), wherein the temperature detection component ( 8 ) is configured to detect a temperature of the discrete device ( 3 ), and when the detected temperature is greater than a preset value, the temperature detection component ( 8 ) controls the discrete device ( 3 ) to reduce working power.
