The embodiments relate to the field of electrical device technologies, and a packaging structure.
A developmental trend of packaging structures such as power supply modules is having increasingly large power. A common heat dissipation mode cannot meet a heat dissipation requirement, and a water cooling heat dissipation mode is increasingly widely used. A die-casting fitting may be used as a housing of a high-power water-cooled power supply module and a water channel may be made on the housing or a dedicated heat sink. Heating devices such as an insulated gate bipolar transistor (IGBT), a magnetic device, and a metal-oxide-semiconductor field-effect transistor (MOSFET) are attached to a wall of the water channel to dissipate heat. Only a single circuit board can be disposed on this type of water-cooled power supply module, and power density is low.
The embodiments may provide a packaging structure, to resolve a problem that power density of an existing packaging structure is low.

First, refer to
The power component is disposed in the first accommodating space. The power component may include a first circuit board 300 and a second circuit board 400. The first circuit board 300 and the second circuit board 400 may be disposed opposite to each other. A front side of the first circuit board 300 may be disposed opposite to a front side of the second circuit board 400. A back side of the first circuit board 300 faces the top cover 100. The first circuit board 300 may be fastened to the top cover 100 by using a connecting piece such as a screw. The back side of the first circuit board 300 is a side on the back of the front side of the first circuit board 300. A back side of the second circuit board 400 faces the bottom housing 200. The second circuit board 400 may be fastened to the bottom housing 200 by using a connecting piece such as a screw. The back side of the second circuit board 400 is a side on the back of the front side of the second circuit board 400. In an application, a component with a high height on the front side of the first circuit board 300 and a component with a high height on the front side of the second circuit board 400 may be arranged in a staggered manner. In this way, a distance between the first circuit board 300 and the second circuit board 400 may be small, space occupied by the first circuit board 300 and the second circuit board 400 may be small, and a volume of the housing may be small.
According to the packaging structure provided in embodiments, the first circuit board 300 and the second circuit board 400 are disposed inside the housing, so that power density of the packaging structure can be improved. The top cover 100 and the bottom housing 200 are connected to form the housing, and the structure is simple. The first circuit board 300 and the second circuit board 400 are disposed opposite to each other and are respectively disposed on the top cover 100 and the bottom housing 200. In this way, internal space of the housing can be fully utilized, and assembly of the circuit boards is convenient. The first heat transfer medium channel and the second heat transfer medium channel are respectively disposed on the top cover 100 and the bottom housing 200. A heat dissipation area is large and heat dissipation efficiency is high, so that the first heating device 301 on the first circuit board 300 and the second heating device 401 on the second circuit board 400 can effectively dissipate heat. In this way, working reliability of a device is improved.
In a possible embodiment, a third heating device 500 is disposed in the housing. The third heating device 500 may press against both the bottom housing 200 and the top cover 100 or press against one of the bottom housing 200 and the top cover 100. For example, the third heating device 500 may be a device with a high height, such as a magnetic device. Two ends of the third heating device 500 in a height direction respectively press against the bottom housing 200 and the top cover 100 to dissipate heat. One end of the third heating device 500 may be fastened to the bottom housing 200 and press against the inner wall of the bottom housing 200, and the other end of the magnetic device presses against the inner wall of the top cover 100. It may be understood that one end of the third heating device 500 may be fastened to the top cover 100 and press against the inner wall of the top cover 100, and the other end presses against the inner wall of the bottom housing 200.
The first circuit board 300 may have a first avoidance notch 304. One end of the third heating device 500 may pass through the first avoidance notch 304 to press against the inner wall of the top cover 100. The second circuit board 400 may have a second avoidance notch 404. The third heating device 500 may pass through the second avoidance notch 404 to press against the inner wall of the bottom housing 200. In this way, the third heating device 500, the first circuit board 300, and the second circuit board 400 may be densely arranged. This arrangement does not need to avoid the entire first circuit board 300 and the entire second circuit board 400. Therefore, devices have a highly flexible layout and occupy small space.
In a possible embodiment, a second guide assembly may be further disposed between the first circuit board 300 and the second circuit board 400. The second guide assembly may include a first signal connection terminal and a second signal connection terminal. The first signal connection terminal may be disposed on the first circuit board 300 and may be disposed on the front side of the first circuit board 300. The second signal connection terminal may be disposed on the second circuit board 400 and may be disposed on the front side of the second circuit board 400. During assembly, the first signal connection terminal and the second signal connection terminal may be plug-connected. In this way, the top cover 100 and the bottom housing 200 can be precisely guided for the connection, so that the top cover 100 and the bottom housing 200 can be more accurately connected. In addition, after the first signal connection terminal and the second signal connection terminal are plug-connected for engagement, a signal connection between the first circuit board 300 and the second circuit board 400 can be implemented.
In a possible embodiment, the first heat transfer medium channel may be U-shaped, and has a large heat dissipation area. The first heat transfer medium channel may also be of another shape. A shape of the first heat transfer medium channel may be based on distribution of first heating devices on the first circuit board. Therefore, it can be ensured that the first heat transfer medium channel passes a distribution position of the first heating device. The first heating device may be in contact with a region the first heat transfer medium channel passes, thereby improving heat dissipation effect of the first heating device. The second heat transfer medium channel and the first heat transfer medium channel may be of a same shape or different shapes. For example, the second heat transfer medium channel may be U-shaped, or may be of another shape. Similarly, a shape of the second heat transfer medium channel may be based on distribution of second heating devices on the second circuit board, to ensure heat dissipation effect of the second heating device.
The foregoing descriptions are merely implementations but are not intended to limit the scope of the embodiments. Any variation or replacement readily figured out by a person skilled in the art shall fall within the scope of the embodiments.
