Inverter for driving motor of vheicle

Abstract

An inverter for driving a motor of a vehicle mediating between a battery and a driving motor is disclosed. The inverter includes a power storage module, a power module, and a cooling module. The power storage module is configured to be supplied with power from the battery. The power module is configured to be supplied with power from the power storage module to transfer the power to the driving motor. The cooling module is configured to be installed between the power storage module and the power module to simultaneously cool the power storage module and the power module.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . An inverter for driving a motor of a vehicle mediating between a battery and a driving motor, comprising:
 a power storage module configured to be supplied with power from the battery;   a power module configured to be supplied with power from the power storage module to transfer the power to the driving motor; and   a cooling module configured to be installed between the power storage module and the power module to simultaneously cool the power storage module and the power module.   
     
     
         2 . The inverter of  claim 1 , further including:
 a connection module configured to connect the power storage module and the power module to transfer power,   wherein the connection module is formed in a structure having a plus plate connecting a plus terminal of the power storage module and a plus terminal of the power module and a minus plate connecting a minus terminal of the power storage module and a minus terminal of the power module, the plates being stacked in an insulated state.   
     
     
         3 . The inverter of  claim 2 , wherein each plus plate and each minus plate are formed in the shape of the letter L and have a first surface inserted between the power storage module and the cooling module and a second surface extending along a side surface of the cooling module from one end of the first surface, and
 a first surface of the plus plate and a first surface of the minus plate are stacked and a second surface of the plus plate and a second surface of the minus plate are installed to contact each other while being stacked.   
     
     
         4 . The inverter of  claim 3 , wherein the connection module further includes a plus terminal extending from a second surface of the plus plate to be connected to a plus terminal of the power module and a minus terminal extending from a second surface of the minus plate to be connected to a minus terminal of the power module. 
     
     
         5 . The inverter of  claim 3 , wherein the first surface of the minus plate is provided with a through hole so that the first surface of the plus plate and the plus terminal of the power storage module contact each other. 
     
     
         6 . The inverter of  claim 3 , wherein the first surface of the plus plate is provided with a through hole so that the first surface of the minus plate and the minus terminal of the power storage module contact each other. 
     
     
         7 . The inverter of  claim 2 , wherein the cooling module cools the connection module, and
 the power storage module is indirectly cooled by the connection module.
