[0003] Direct heat pump systems typically utilize a built-in condenser and electric PTC heater (PTC heater) within the air conditioning unit, along with an external water-heated PTC and condenser. These systems utilize refrigerant reversal to achieve compressor heating. Direct heat pump systems are incompatible with hybrid vehicle air conditioning units (water-heating core + evaporator), resulting in poor adaptability.

[0044] When the heat pump air conditioning system of the present invention is working, it includes the following situations:
[0045] When the vehicle is running, the motor electronic control 6 and the power supply 7 generate heat, and the compressor 17 runs. The heat of the motor electronic control 6 and the power supply 7 is absorbed by the heat exchanger 15, and the absorbed heat and the heat generated by the work of the compressor 17 are transferred to the pipe process of the water-cooled condenser 18 through the water-cooled condenser 18. The direction is changed by the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2, the radiator 9 is short-circuited, and the heated water is directed to the power battery pack 13 for heating, and then directed to the water heating core 21, and blown through the heated water heating core 21 by the blower to provide heat to the passenger compartment in the form of hot air.
[0046] When the vehicle stops, the motor electronic control 6 cannot generate heat, and the compressor 17 runs, absorbing heat from the air through the heat exchanger 15 and the radiator 9, and transferring the absorbed heat and the heat generated by the work of the compressor 17 to the pipe process of the water-cooled condenser 18 through the water-cooled condenser 18. The direction is changed by the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2, and the heated water is directed to the power battery pack 13 for heating, and then to the water heating core 21, and is blown through the heated water heating core 21 by the blower to provide heat to the passenger compartment.
[0047] When the vehicle is running and only the power battery pack 13 needs to be heated, the heat generated by the motor electronic control 6 and the power supply 7 can be directly introduced into the power battery pack 13 to heat the battery, recover waste heat, and save energy.
[0048] In extremely cold weather, the heat pump air conditioning system cannot work, and the water heater 22 is used for heating. The direction is changed by the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2. The passenger compartment is first heated through the water heating core 21, and then the battery is heated through the power battery pack 13.
[0049] Under normal temperature environment, the first control valve 1 proportionally adjusts the fluid flow through the radiator 9 to dissipate heat to the motor electronic control 6 and the power supply 7 in a timely manner, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the motor electronic control 6 and the power supply 7.
[0050] When the passenger compartment and the power battery pack 13 need to be cooled, the direction of the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2 is changed, the compressor 17 starts, and the heat of the power battery pack 13 is absorbed through the heat exchanger 15 to cool the power battery pack 13. The heat of the passenger compartment is absorbed through the evaporator 16 to cool the passenger compartment, and the absorbed heat is transferred to the pipe process of the water-cooled condenser 18 through the water-cooled condenser 18, and all the heat is transferred to the air through the radiator 9.
[0051] When the passenger compartment needs to be heated and the power battery pack 13 needs to be cooled, the direction of the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2 is changed, the compressor 17 runs, and the heat of the power battery pack 13 is absorbed through the heat exchanger 15 to cool the power battery pack 13. The absorbed heat is transferred to the pipe process of the water-cooled condenser 18 through the water-cooled condenser 18, and the heated water is introduced into the water heating core 21 to provide heat to the passenger compartment.
[0052] In other specific embodiments of the present invention, when the passenger compartment needs to be cooled and the power battery pack 13 needs to be heated, the direction of the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2 is changed, the compressor 17 is operated, the air conditioning box heating and cooling doors are adjusted, and the heat of the passenger compartment is absorbed by the evaporator 16. The absorbed heat is introduced into the power battery pack 13 through the water-cooled condenser to heat the power battery pack 13.
[0053] In a low-temperature environment, after the vehicle is running and locked for charging, the temperature inside the passenger compartment is high, and the power battery pack 13 needs to be heated. The compressor 17 runs, absorbing the heat from the passenger compartment through the evaporator 16, and transferring the absorbed heat and the heat generated by the work of the compressor 17 to the pipe process of the water-cooled condenser 18 through the water-cooled condenser 18. The direction is changed by the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2, and the heated water is directly introduced into the power battery pack 13 to heat it.
[0054] It should also be noted here that the tube side and shell side of the heat exchanger 15 and the water-cooled condenser 18 are two heat exchange channels for the heat exchange medium. In actual applications, the tube side or shell side can be selected as the heat exchange channel according to the specific types of the two heat exchange media.
[0055] In this embodiment, the first control valve 1 is an eight-way valve with eight pipeline interfaces, namely a, b, c, d, e, f, g, and h. The second control valve 2 is a five-way valve with five pipeline interfaces, namely i, j, k, l, and m. This facilitates control over the connection and on / off states of each branch and the connecting loop 14, thereby improving the controllability of the system. In actual applications, the appropriate control valve type can be selected according to the actual operating conditions to improve the flexibility and adaptability of the system.
[0056] Among them, a gas-liquid separator 23 is also provided in the connecting loop 14. After the heat exchanger 15 and the evaporator 16 are connected in parallel, they are connected to the compressor 17 via the gas-liquid separator 23. The gas-liquid separator 23 is provided before the compressor 17 to separate the liquid in the fluid, provide protection for the compressor 17, and improve the working reliability of the system.
[0057] At the same time, a liquid storage tank 24 is also provided in the communication loop 14 , and the liquid storage tank 24 is connected to the water-cooled condenser 18 . The liquid storage tank 24 can collect the liquid discharged from the water-cooled condenser 18 to ensure the normal operation of the communication loop 14 .
[0058] In order to control the working states of the heat exchanger 15 and the evaporator 16, the heat exchanger 15 and the evaporator 16 are both connected with regulating valves to further improve the controllability of the system.
[0059] In addition, a detection element is also provided in the communication loop 14 for monitoring the operating status of the system. An appropriate type of detection element can be selected according to actual conditions.
[0060] In practical applications, the water heater 22 may be a water PTC heater. The PTC heater has high heat exchange efficiency and can improve heating efficiency.
[0061] It should also be noted that the heat pump air-conditioning system of the present invention also includes an expansion kettle 25. The first branch 4, the second branch 8 and the third branch 10 are all connected to the expansion kettle 25. The provision of the expansion kettle 25 can stabilize the operating pressure of the system and improve the safety factor of the system. At the same time, it can also play a role in replenishing water for the system, further improving the adaptability of the system.
[0062] At the same time, the heat pump air-conditioning system of the present invention also includes a controller. The first control valve 1, the second control valve 2, the first branch 4, the second branch 8, the third branch 10, the fourth branch 12, the connecting loop 14, the fifth branch 19 and the sixth branch 20 are all communicatively connected to the controller. The controller is used to control the operating status of the system, thereby further improving the degree of automation of the system.
[0063] In actual application, when the controller controls the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2 to connect the first branch 4 with the fifth branch 19 and the sixth branch 20 with the fourth branch 12, the heat pump air conditioning system is in the first state: the heat exchanger 15 absorbs heat from the motor and electronic control 6 and the power supply 7. The heat absorbed by the heat exchanger 15 and the heat generated by the work of the compressor 17 are transferred to the water-cooled condenser 18, which heats the power battery pack 13 and the water heating core 21.
[0064] When the first control valve 1 cooperates with the second control valve 2 to connect the second branch 8 with the fifth branch 19 and the sixth branch 20 with the fourth branch 12, the heat pump air conditioning system is in the second state: the heat exchanger 15 and the radiator 9 absorb heat from the air, and the absorbed heat and the heat generated by the work of the compressor 17 are used by the water-cooled condenser 18 to heat the power battery pack 13 and the water heating core 21;

The heat absorbed by the heat exchanger 15 and the evaporator 16 is transferred to the radiator 9 through the water-cooled condenser 18 to achieve heat dissipation;
[0068] When the first control valve 1 and the second control valve 2 cooperate to connect the fourth branch 12 with the fifth branch 19, the heat pump air conditioning system is in the sixth state: the heat exchanger 15 absorbs heat from the power battery pack 13. The heat absorbed by the heat exchanger 15 and the heat from the operation of the compressor 17 are heated by the water-cooled condenser 18 to heat the water heating core 21;
[0069] When the first control valve 1 cooperates with the second control valve 2 to connect the fourth branch 12 with the sixth branch 20, the heat pump air-conditioning system is in the seventh state: the compressor 17 is running, the evaporator 16 absorbs heat from the passenger compartment, and the heat absorbed by the evaporator 16 and the heat generated by the work of the compressor 17 are used to heat the power battery pack 13 through the water-cooled condenser 18.
