Embodiment 1

[0059] 【Embodiment 1】--- figure 1 and 2

[0060] In Embodiment 1 of the present invention, as figure 1 and 2 As shown, the partial offset between the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for the air conditioner and the heat exchanger 11 for cooling the fuel cell is achieved by making the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for the air conditioner and the heat exchanger 11 for cooling the fuel cell in the right and left direction of the vehicle. partially achieved by biasing. In Embodiment 1 of the present invention, the fan guard 17 does not need to be provided.

[0061] According to the effects and technical advantages of Embodiment 1 of the present invention, since the width of the front compartment of the vehicle is greater than the height of the vehicle, it is easy to realize the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for the air conditioner and the heat exchanger 11 for cooling the fuel cell in the right and left direction of the vehicle bias.

Embodiment 2

[0062] 【Example 2】--- image 3

[0063] In embodiment 2 of the present invention, such as image 3 As shown, the partial offset between the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for the air conditioner and the heat exchanger 11 for cooling the fuel cell is achieved by making the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for the air conditioner and the heat exchanger 11 for cooling the fuel cell in the right and left direction of the vehicle. partially achieved by biasing. In Embodiment 2 of the present invention, it is necessary to provide a fan guard 17 .

[0064] In a front view, a portion 11a of the fuel cell cooling heat exchanger 11 extending from the end of the air conditioner outdoor heat exchanger 12 facing the high temperature portion 12a extends from the fan guard 17 in the right and left direction of the vehicle. out.

Embodiment 3

[0066] 【Embodiment 3】--- Figure 4 and 5

[0067] In embodiment 3 of the present invention, as Figure 4 and 5 As shown, the partial offset between the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for the air conditioner and the heat exchanger 11 for cooling the fuel cell is that the outdoor heat exchanger 12 for the air conditioner is aligned with the heat used for cooling the fuel cell in the vertical (vertical) direction of the vehicle. The switches 11 are partially offset from each other. The portion 11a of the fuel cell cooling heat exchanger 11 extending from the end of the air conditioner outdoor heat exchanger 12 opposite to the high temperature portion 12a in front view extends from the fan shroud 17 in the downward direction and from the An end portion of the air conditioner outdoor heat exchanger 12 facing the high temperature portion 12a extends. The vehicle running wind flowing through the air inlet 18 located under the bumper directly contacts the part 11a.

Abstract

The present invention provides a cooling device for a fuel cell vehicle in which the cooling efficiency of a heat exchanger for cooling a fuel cell located downstream of an outdoor heat exchanger for an air conditioner is not lowered. (1) In the cooling device, the outdoor heat exchanger for the air conditioner and the heat exchanger for cooling the fuel cell are partially offset from each other so that the high temperature portion of the outdoor heat exchanger for the air conditioner does not appear in a front view viewed from the front of the vehicle. It overlaps with the fuel cell cooling heat exchanger. (2) A part of the fuel cell cooling heat exchanger protruding from the end of the air conditioner outdoor heat exchanger facing the high temperature part is provided outside the fan shroud so as to be cooled only by the vehicle running wind.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a cooling device for a vehicle. Background technique [0002] Japanese Patent Publication No. 2003-118396 discloses a fuel cell vehicle cooling device including an outdoor (external) heat exchanger for an air conditioner and a heat exchanger for fuel cell cooling. [0003] Such as Figure 6 As shown, in this device, an outdoor heat exchanger 2 for an air conditioner and a heat exchanger 1 for cooling a fuel cell are arranged in sequence from upstream to downstream along the flow direction of air flowing through the heat exchanger. The outdoor heat exchanger 2 for the air conditioner is arranged in front of the heat exchanger 1 for cooling the fuel cell so that the entire part of the outdoor heat exchanger 2 for the air conditioner is in contact with the fuel cell in the front view of the heat exchanger when viewed from the front of the vehicle. The heat exchanger 1 for battery cooling is overlapped. [0004] Figure 6 It is a...
