The system includes: a waste heat temperature control circulation module, a PTC heater (10), a refrigerant circulation module, an in-vehicle heat exchange module, and a battery temperature control module. The refrigerant circulation module is connected to an external heat exchanger (15) via a four-way valve (14). The external heat exchanger (15) is connected to the in-vehicle heat exchange module and the battery temperature control module via a three-way valve with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve. The refrigerant circulation module is connected to the in-vehicle heat exchange module and the battery temperature control module via the four-way valve (14). The PTC heater (10) is installed in the waste heat temperature control circulation module, which is connected to the battery temperature control module.
[0030] In this embodiment, a direct heat pump automotive air conditioning system with waste heat recovery in stages is provided, including: a first water pump 1, a charging system 2, a DC power converter 3, a motor control system 4, a motor 5, a proportional five-way valve 6, a motor radiator 7, a motor cooling fan 8, a first electromagnetic three-way valve 9, a PTC heater 10, an in-vehicle radiator 11, a first plate heat exchanger 12, a compressor 13, a four-way valve 14, an external heat exchanger 15, a three-way valve with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve 16, a first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17, an in-vehicle radiator fan 18, a gas-liquid separator 19, a second plate heat exchanger 20, a second water pump 21, a battery heat exchange module 22, a battery radiator 23, a battery radiator fan 24, a third electromagnetic three-way valve 25, an expansion tank 26, a second electromagnetic three-way valve 27, and a second in-vehicle heat exchanger 28.
[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 The proportional five-way valve 6 shown has five ports, the four-way valve 14 has four ports, and the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9, the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27, and the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 each have three ports. The five ports a, b, c, d, and e of the proportional five-way valve 6 are respectively connected to the motor radiator 7, the first plate heat exchanger 12, the vehicle interior radiator 11, the PTC heater 10, and the motor 5. Port a of the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 is connected to the first plate heat exchanger 12 and the vehicle interior radiator 11; port b of the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 is connected to the motor radiator 7; port c of the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 is connected to the first water pump 1 and the expansion tank 26; port a of the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 is connected to the first vehicle interior heat exchanger 17; and the second electromagnetic three-way valve 25... Ports b and c on the three-way valve 27 are connected to both ends of the in-vehicle heat exchanger 28, respectively. Port c on the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 is also connected to port b of the four-way valve 14 and the second plate heat exchanger 20. Ports abc on the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 are connected to the battery radiator 23, the second plate heat exchanger 20 and the first plate heat exchanger 12, respectively. Ports acd on the four-way valve 14 are connected to the compressor 13, the external heat exchanger 15 and the gas-liquid separator 19, respectively. Port b on the four-way valve 14 is connected to the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 and the second plate heat exchanger 20. Ports abc of the three-way valve 16 with the bidirectional electronic expansion valve are connected to the external heat exchanger 15, the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17 and the second plate heat exchanger 20, respectively.
[0032] The three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve has two operating modes:
[0033] (1) ab connected: contains a bidirectional electronic expansion valve with bidirectional throttling function, connecting the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17 and the external heat exchanger 15.
[0034] (2) AC connection: It contains a bidirectional electronic expansion valve with bidirectional throttling function, and connects the second plate heat exchanger 20 with the vehicle external heat exchanger 15.
[0035] The four-way valve 14 has two operating modes:
[0036] (1) The compressor 13 is connected to the external heat exchanger 15 via the ac connection, and the gas-liquid separator 19 is connected to the first internal heat exchanger 17 via the bd connection.
[0037] (2) The compressor 13 is connected to the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17 via the ab connection, and the gas-liquid separator 19 is connected to the external heat exchanger 15 via the cd connection.
[0038] The proportional five-way valve 6 has two inlets, d and e, and three outlets, a, b, and c. The flow distribution ratio of each inlet and outlet is controlled by controlling the size of the inlet and outlet.
[0039] This invention enables automotive air conditioning to operate in multiple modes by switching valves; the operating modes are as follows:
[0040] 1. In-vehicle cooling mode: such as Figure 2 As shown, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant compressed by compressor 13 enters through port a of four-way valve 14 and exits through port c. It then enters the external heat exchanger 15, releasing heat to the environment and becoming a subcooled liquid. Next, it enters through port a of three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve and exits through port b (the a→b channel contains a bidirectional electronic expansion valve). It then enters the first internal heat exchanger 17, where the refrigerant absorbs heat from the air, lowering the air temperature. The refrigerant then flows into the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 through port a and exits through port b, entering the second internal heat exchanger 28 to absorb heat from the air again, achieving a double cooling of the air. Finally, it enters through port b of four-way valve 14 and exits through port d, entering the gas-liquid separator 19 and returning to compressor 13, completing the internal cooling cycle. In this mode, four-way valve 14 is in the ac and bd connection state; three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the ab connection state (ab contains an electronic expansion valve); and the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 is in the ab connection state.
[0041] In cooling mode, when the cooling capacity is small, the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 can be adjusted to the AC-AC state. At this time, the refrigerant only passes through the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17 and not through the second in-vehicle heat exchanger 28. When the cooling capacity is large, the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 can be adjusted to the A-B-AC state. At this time, the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17 and the second in-vehicle heat exchanger 28 are connected in series, and the refrigerant passes through both the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17 and the second in-vehicle heat exchanger 28 at the same time. The switching between large and small cooling capacities can be achieved by adjusting the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27.
[0042] 2. In-vehicle cooling + battery cooling mode: such as Figure 3As shown, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant compressed by compressor 13 enters through port a of four-way valve 14, flows out through port c, and then enters the external heat exchanger 15 to release heat into the environment, becoming a subcooled liquid. It then enters through port a of three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve, and a portion of the refrigerant flows out through port b (the a→b channel has a bidirectional electronic expansion valve). It then enters the first internal heat exchanger 17, where the refrigerant absorbs heat from the air, lowering the air temperature. The refrigerant then flows in through port a of the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27, flows out through port c, enters through port b of four-way valve 14, flows out through port d, and enters the gas-liquid separator 19. Finally, it returns to compressor 13, completing the internal cooling cycle. The remaining refrigerant flows out through port c (the a→c channel has a bidirectional electronic expansion valve), enters the second plate heat exchanger 20 to exchange heat with the battery coolant, and finally returns to compressor through four-way valve 14 and gas-liquid separator 19. Under the action of the second water pump 21, the battery circulating liquid flows through the battery heat exchange module 22, absorbs heat from the battery surface, enters the second plate heat exchanger 20, transfers heat to the refrigerant to achieve cooling, and then flows through port b of the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 and out through port c, flows through the first plate heat exchanger 12, and then returns to the second water pump 21 to achieve battery cooling cycle; in this mode, the four-way valve 14 is in the ac and bd communication state; the three-way valve 16 with bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the ab and ac communication state (both ab and ac contain electronic expansion valves); the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 is in the ac communication state; and the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 is in the bc communication state.
[0043] 3. In-vehicle cooling and dehumidification mode: such as Figure 4 As shown, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 13 enters through port a of the four-way valve 14, flows out through port c, and then enters the external heat exchanger 15 to release heat into the environment, becoming a subcooled liquid. It then enters through port a of the three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve, flows out through port b (there is a bidirectional electronic expansion valve in the a→b channel), and then enters the first internal heat exchanger 17. The refrigerant absorbs heat from the air, and the air temperature decreases. It then enters through port a of the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27, flows out through port c, enters through port b of the four-way valve 14, flows out through port d, and then enters the gas-liquid separator 19. Finally, it returns to the compressor 13, realizing the internal cooling cycle. The PTC circulating heating fluid, heated by the PTC heater 10 under the action of the first water pump 1, enters through port d of the proportional five-way valve 6 and flows out through port c. Then it passes through the vehicle radiator 11 to dehumidify the air, and then enters through port a of the first solenoid three-way valve 9 and flows out through port c. Finally, it returns to the water pump, thus completing the dehumidification process. In this mode, the four-way valve 14 is in the ac and bd connection state; the three-way valve 16 with the bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the ab connection state (both ab contain electronic expansion valves); and the first solenoid three-way valve 9 is in the ac connection state.

Figure 5 As shown, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant compressed by compressor 13 enters through port a of four-way valve 14, flows out through port c, and then enters the external heat exchanger 15 to release heat into the environment, becoming a subcooled liquid. It then enters through port a of three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve, flows out through port c (the a→c channel has a bidirectional electronic expansion valve), exchanges heat with the battery coolant through the second plate heat exchanger 20, enters through port b of four-way valve 14, flows out through port d, passes through gas-liquid separator 19, and finally returns to the compressor. Simultaneously, the battery coolant, under the action of the second water pump 21, absorbs heat through the battery heat exchange module 22, then exchanges heat with the refrigerant through the second plate heat exchanger 20, enters through port b of the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25, flows out through port c, and then returns to the water pump through the first plate heat exchanger 12, completing the battery cooling cycle. In this mode, the four-way valve 14 is in the AC and BD connection state; the three-way valve 16 with the bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the AC connection state (AC contains electronic expansion valves); and the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 is in the BC connection state.

Then it enters through port a and flows out through port c of the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25, and returns to the water pump through the first plate heat exchanger 12 to complete the battery cooling cycle. In this mode, the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 is in the ac-connected state.
[0046] 5. Motor cooling mode: such as Figure 7 As shown, the circulating liquid for the motor flows through the charging system 2, DC power converter 3, motor control system 4, and motor 5 under the action of the first water pump 1. It enters through port e of the proportional five-way valve 6 and flows out through port a. Then it enters the motor radiator 7. The air cools the motor radiator 7 under the action of the motor cooling fan 8. The cooled liquid returns to the first water pump 1 to realize the motor cooling cycle. In this mode, the proportional five-way valve 6 is in the ae-e connected state.
[0047] 6. Heat pump heating + battery preheating mode: such as Figure 8As shown, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant compressed by the compressor 13 enters through port a of the four-way valve 14 and flows out through port b. Part of the refrigerant exchanges heat with the low-temperature coolant through the second plate heat exchanger 20 and becomes a subcooled liquid. The other part of the refrigerant enters through port c of the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 and flows out through port a. It then passes through the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17 and releases heat under the action of the fan 18. Finally, the two refrigerants enter through ports b and c of the three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve to mix. After flowing out through port a, it absorbs heat through the external heat exchanger 15, then enters through port c of the four-way valve 14 and flows out through port d. It then enters the gas-liquid separator 19 and finally returns to the compressor 13. The battery circulating liquid, under the action of the second water pump 21, preheats the battery through the battery heat exchange module 22, then absorbs heat through the second plate heat exchanger 20, and then enters through port b and exits through port c of the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25, then passes through the first plate heat exchanger 12, and finally returns to the water pump, realizing the battery preheating cycle; the four-way valve 14 is in the ab and cd communication state; the three-way valve 16 with bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the ab and ac communication state (both ab and ac contain electronic expansion valves); the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 is in the bc communication state.
[0048] 7. Waste heat utilization battery preheating mode: such as Figure 9 As shown, the motor circulating fluid, under the action of the first water pump 1, flows through the charging system 2, DC power converter 3, motor control system 4, and motor 5. It enters through port e of the proportional five-way valve 6 and exits through port b. It then exchanges heat with the battery circulating fluid through the first plate heat exchanger 12, and then enters through port a of the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 and exits through port c, finally returning to the first water pump 1. The battery circulating fluid, under the action of the second water pump 21, preheats the battery through the battery heat exchange module 22, then passes through the battery radiator 23, and then enters through port a of the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 and exits through port c.

In this mode, the proportional five-way valve 6 is in the B-E phase; the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 is in the A-C phase; and the battery three-way valve 25 is in the A-C phase.
[0049] 8. Heat pump heating + PTC supplementary heating mode: such as Figure 10As shown, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant compressed by compressor 13 enters through port a of four-way valve 14 and flows out through port b. The refrigerant then enters through port c of the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 and flows out through port a. It then passes through the first in-vehicle heat exchanger 17, where it releases heat under the action of fan 18. It then enters through port b of three-way valve 16 with bidirectional electronic expansion valve and flows out through port a. It enters the external heat exchanger 15 to absorb heat, then enters through port c of four-way valve 14 and flows out through port d. It then passes through gas-liquid separator 19 and finally returns to compressor, realizing a heat pump heating cycle. At the same time, the PTC heating circulating liquid flows through PTC heater 10 under the action of first water pump 1 for heating. It then enters through port d of proportional five-way valve 6 and flows out through port c. It then passes through in-vehicle radiator 11, where it heats the interior under the action of fan 28. Finally, it enters through port a of the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 and flows out through port c, returning to water pump, realizing a heat replenishment cycle. In this mode, the four-way valve 14 is in the ab and cd connection state; the three-way valve 16 with the bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the ab connection state (both ab and cd contain electronic expansion valves); the second electromagnetic three-way valve 27 is in the ac connection state; the proportional five-way valve 6 is in the cd connection state; and the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 is in the ac connection state.
[0050] 9. Waste heat heating + PTC supplementary heating mode: such as Figure 11 As shown, under the action of the first water pump 1, part of the circulating liquid flows through the charging system 2, DC power converter 3, motor control system 4, and motor 5, entering through port e of the proportional five-way valve 6. The other part passes through the PTC heater 10, entering through port d of the proportional five-way valve. After the two parts of the circulating liquid mix, they flow out through port c, pass through the vehicle radiator 11, and release heat under the action of the fan 28.

In this mode, the proportional five-way valve 6 is in the cde-connected state; the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 is in the ac-connected state.
[0051] 10. Defrosting Mode 1 (Battery Thermal Defrosting): (e.g.) Figure 5As shown, the high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant compressed by compressor 13 enters through port a of four-way valve 14, flows out through port c, and then enters the external heat exchanger 15 to release heat and complete defrosting. It then enters through port a of three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve, flows out through port c (the a→c channel contains a bidirectional electronic expansion valve), exchanges heat with the battery coolant in the second plate heat exchanger 20, then enters through port b of four-way valve 14, flows out through port d, then passes through gas-liquid separator 19, and finally returns to the compressor; (The text repeats itself here.) Under the action of the second water pump 21, the battery coolant absorbs heat through the battery heat exchange module 22, then exchanges heat with the refrigerant through the second plate heat exchanger 20, and then enters through port b and exits through port c of the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25, and then returns to the water pump through the first plate heat exchanger 12 to complete the battery cooling cycle; in this mode, the four-way valve 14 is in the AC and BD connection state; the three-way valve 16 with bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the AC connection state (AC contains electronic expansion valves); the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 is in the BC connection state.
[0052] 10. Defrosting Mode 2 (PTC preheats the battery while defrosting): For example... Figure 12 As shown, the PTC heating circulating liquid flows through the PTC heater 10 under the action of the first water pump 1 for heating, then enters from port d of the proportional five-way valve 6 and exits from port b. It exchanges heat with the battery circulating liquid in the first plate heat exchanger 12, then enters from port a of the first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 and exits from port c, finally returning to the water pump. Simultaneously, the battery circulating liquid, under the action of the second water pump 21, preheats the battery through the battery heat exchange module 22, then heats the refrigerant through the second plate heat exchanger 20, then enters from port b of the third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 and exits from port c, then absorbs heat through the first plate heat exchanger 12, finally returning to the water pump. This achieves battery preheating circulation while transferring some heat to the refrigerant. The high-temperature, high-pressure refrigerant, compressed by compressor 13, enters through port a of four-way valve 14 and exits through port c. It then enters the external heat exchanger 15 to release heat and complete defrosting. Afterward, it enters through port a of three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve and exits through port c (the a→c channel contains a bidirectional electronic expansion valve). It then exchanges heat with the battery circulating fluid in the second plate heat exchanger 20, enters through port b of four-way valve 14, exits through port d, passes through gas-liquid separator 19, and finally returns to the compressor. In this mode, four-way valve 14 is in the AC / BD connection state; three-way valve 16 with a bidirectional electronic expansion valve is in the AC connection state (AC contains electronic expansion valves); third electromagnetic three-way valve 25 is in the BC / C connection state; proportional five-way valve 6 is in the BC / D connection state; and first electromagnetic three-way valve 9 is in the AC connection state.
