Electric machine
An electric machine including a pulse inverter having a region with an oil space and busbars, wherein the electric machine is electrically connected to the pulse inverter by the busbars such that the busbars are electrically connected to a connection of the pulse inverter, wherein the busbars and the electric machine are cooled by oil, and wherein the oil for supplying and cooling the busbars is stored within the oil space in the region of the pulse inverter.
1. An arrangement comprising:
an electric machine having a first housing:
a pulse inverter having a region with an oil space and having a second housing; and
busbars,
wherein the electric machine is electrically connected to the pulse inverter by the busbars such that the busbars are electrically connected to a connection of the pulse inverter,
wherein the busbars, the pulse inverter, and the electric machine are cooled by oil,
wherein the oil for supplying and cooling the busbars is stored within the oil space in the region of the pulse inverter,
wherein a portion of the busbars is arranged in a third housing, and
wherein the third housing runs between the electric machine and the pulse inverter, and the first housing, the second housing, and the third housing are in fluid communication with each other.
2. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the busbars are each configured with a supply channel for the oil so that oil is able to flow along the busbars along the respective supply channel.
3. The arrangement as claimed in claim 2 , wherein a pump is provided to convey the oil along the respective supply channel of the busbars from the pulse inverter to the electric machine or vice versa.
4. The arrangement as claimed in claim 3 , wherein the busbars are arranged in the third housing so as to have oil flow through and/or around the busbars.
5. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein at least three busbars are provided.
6. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first housing, the second housing, and the third housing are further configured with a first interface between at least the first housing and the third housing as well as a second interface between at least the second housing and the third housing, wherein the first interface is configured without any seal between the first housing and the third housing and wherein the second interface is configured without any seal between the second housing and the third housing.
7. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the first housing, the second housing, and the third housing are further configured with a first interface between at least the first housing and the third housing as well as a second interface between at least the second housing and the third housing, wherein each of the interfaces has an open state and a closed state, wherein the open state permits the fluid communication across the interface, and wherein the closed state breaks fluid communication across the interface.
8. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the third housing runs between the first housing and the second housing.
9. The arrangement as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the oil space is in the second housing, and a second portion of the busbars are arranged in the oil space.
