DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0028] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
[0029] Combination Figures 1 to 4According to the refrigerant side component 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the refrigerant side component 100 is configured to utilize refrigerant phase change heat to achieve a temperature control function, specifically, comprising: a refrigerant plate 10 and a liquid storage tank 20, the refrigerant plate 10 having a refrigerant flow channel (not shown in the figure), and a first interface 101 and a second interface 102 connected to the refrigerant flow channel; the liquid storage tank 20 is connected to the refrigerant plate 10 and is opposite to each other in the up and down directions, the liquid storage tank 20 has a refrigerant inlet 201 and a refrigerant outlet 202, the refrigerant inlet 201 is docked with the first interface 101 and sealed, and the refrigerant outlet 202 is docked with the second interface 102 and sealed, so that the refrigerant in the liquid storage tank 20 can be supplied to the refrigerant flow channel, and the sealing can avoid refrigerant leakage and improve the stability and safety of operation. Specifically, the liquid storage tank 20 is mounted on the refrigerant plate 10 in the up-down direction, so that the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202 of the liquid storage tank 20 can be directly connected to the interface of the refrigerant plate 10, so that the refrigerant in the liquid storage tank 20 flows to the refrigerant plate 10, which is conducive to simplifying the assembly structure and improving work efficiency. The liquid storage tank 20 is fixed on the refrigerant plate 10 in the up-down direction, which is conducive to improving the stability of the liquid storage tank 20 after assembly. In addition, the upper end surface of the refrigerant plate 10 has an accommodating space, which can accommodate the liquid storage tank 20, which is conducive to space layout.
[0030] According to the refrigerant side component 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the assembly structure can be simplified by directly connecting the liquid storage tank 20 to the refrigerant plate 10, and the liquid storage tank 20 is connected to the refrigerant plate 10 in the up and down directions, which can improve the assembly stability and facilitate spatial arrangement.
[0031] In some embodiments of the present invention, the liquid storage tank 20 may also be connected to the refrigerant plate 10 in a direction perpendicular to the panel of the refrigerant plate 10 to fully utilize the space on the end surface of the refrigerant plate 10 .
[0032] Combination Figure 2 In some embodiments of the present invention, the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202 are arranged on the bottom wall of the liquid storage tank 20, and the refrigerant inlet 201 is connected to the first interface 101 up and down, and the refrigerant outlet 202 is connected to the second interface 102 up and down. That is to say, during assembly, the liquid storage tank 20 can directly connect the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202 to the interface of the refrigerant plate 10 in the up and down direction to connect the liquid storage tank 20 with the refrigerant flow channel, and the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202 are directly connected to the first interface 101 and the second interface 102, which can avoid the need to set up complex connecting pipelines and facilitate the rapid transmission of refrigerant. The refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202 are arranged on the bottom wall of the liquid storage tank 20, which can facilitate the refrigerant to flow out from the refrigerant outlet 202, and after the liquid storage tank 20 is assembled, the center of gravity of the refrigerant side component 100 can be lowered, which is conducive to improving the structural stability of the refrigerant side component 100.
[0033] Combination Figure 2In some embodiments of the present invention, the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20 is provided with a first sealing groove 210, and the first sealing groove 210 surrounds the refrigerant inlet 201; the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20 is provided with a second sealing groove 220, and the second sealing groove 220 surrounds the refrigerant outlet 202. The first sealing groove 210 and the second sealing groove 220 can surround the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202, so as to facilitate sealing at the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202. In other words, the sealing structure can be provided on the bottom surface or bottom wall of the liquid storage tank 20, so that the sealing effect can be directly achieved when the liquid storage tank 20 is assembled on the refrigerant plate 10, which is conducive to simplifying the structure and improving the sealing effect.
[0034] Further, in some embodiments of the present invention, a first sealing ring 211 is provided in the first sealing groove 210, the first sealing ring 211 protrudes from the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20 and stops on the refrigerant plate 10, and surrounds the first interface 101; a second sealing ring 221 is provided in the second sealing groove 220, the second sealing ring 221 protrudes from the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20 and stops on the refrigerant plate 10, and surrounds the second interface 102. Thus, when the liquid storage tank 20 is installed on the refrigerant plate 10, the sealing ring protruding from the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20 can abut on the refrigerant plate 10, thereby forming a seal between the upper surface of the refrigerant plate 10 and the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20, which is conducive to improving the sealing effect and has a simple structure and is easy to construct. Specifically, the sealing ring is provided in the sealing groove, which can facilitate the assembly and fixing of the sealing ring and improve the stability of the structure. More specifically, a first sealing groove 210 and a second sealing groove 220 can be directly constructed on the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20, and the first sealing groove 210 and the second sealing groove 220 are arranged on the periphery of the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202. In this way, after the sealing ring is embedded in the sealing groove, the sealing ring can surround the refrigerant inlet 201 and the refrigerant outlet 202, thereby preventing refrigerant leakage. The sealing ring protrudes from the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20, and it is also convenient to observe and replace the sealing ring for easy maintenance.
[0035] Combination Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present invention, a mounting boss 110 is provided on the refrigerant plate 10, the mounting boss 110 protrudes from the upper surface of the refrigerant plate 10, the first interface 101 and the second interface 102 are provided on the mounting boss 110, and the liquid storage tank 20 is docked with the mounting boss 110. That is, when the liquid storage tank 20 is connected to the refrigerant plate 10, it can cooperate with the mounting boss 110, so as to facilitate the positioning of the installation position of the liquid storage tank 20, and the mounting boss 110 can provide installation, improve the flatness of the assembly, and improve the assembly effect.
[0036] In practical applications, the mounting boss 110 may not be provided, and a mounting structure or mounting surface suitable for cooperating with the liquid storage tank 20 may be constructed on the refrigerant plate 10, and the liquid storage tank 20 may be directly connected to the refrigerant plate 10. However, by providing the mounting boss 110, the structure of the refrigerant plate 10 may be simplified, and the assembly flexibility and structural stability after assembly may be improved.
[0037] Combination Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some embodiments of the present invention, at least one pin hole 103 is provided on the refrigerant plate 10, and a positioning pin 203 corresponding to the pin hole 103 is provided on the bottom surface of the liquid storage tank 20. The positioning pin 203 is inserted into the pin hole 103. The pin hole 103 cooperates with the positioning pin 203 to further improve the stability of the connection between the liquid storage tank 20 and the refrigerant plate 10. Specifically, the pin holes 103 and the positioning pins 203 can be arranged in multiple groups at intervals, which can facilitate positioning, quick assembly, and improve the stability after connection. More specifically, in combination with Figure 2 Two positioning pins 203 may be provided, one adjacent to the first sealing ring 211 and the other adjacent to the second sealing ring 221 .
[0038] In some embodiments of the present invention, the liquid storage tank 20 is screwed to the refrigerant plate 10, which can further improve the stability of the liquid storage tank 20 and the refrigerant plate 10 after assembly. Figure 1 A plurality of screws 30 may be arranged at intervals to connect the liquid storage tank 20 and the refrigerant plate 10 .
[0039] Combination Figure 1 In some embodiments of the present invention, the axis of the liquid storage tank 20 extends in the up-down direction, and the refrigerant plate 10 is perpendicular to the up-down direction. In other words, the liquid storage tank 20 is assembled perpendicular to the end surface of the refrigerant plate 10. After the liquid storage tank 20 is assembled, the force is more uniform, there is no stress concentration phenomenon, and it is easy to assemble. The liquid storage tank 20 can be assembled in the vertical space, which is conducive to space arrangement and improves the compactness of the structure of the refrigerant side component 100.
[0040] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments of the present invention, the refrigerant side assembly 100 further includes: a clamp 40 and a connector 50, wherein the clamp 40 covers the liquid storage tank 20; one end of the connector 50 is connected to the clamp 40, and the other end is connected to the refrigerant plate 10. Specifically, the clamp 40 is arranged along the periphery of the liquid storage tank 20, and the connector 50 is connected between the clamp 40 and the refrigerant plate 10, which can further improve the connection tightness and stability between the liquid storage tank 20 and the refrigerant plate 10. When the liquid storage tank 20 is subjected to circumferential force, the connector 50 can play a supporting effect in the circumferential direction of the liquid storage tank 20 and facilitate the dispersion of force. Specifically, the liquid storage tank 20 is generally a cylinder with a certain height. Combined with the above, the bottom of the liquid storage tank 20 is connected to the refrigerant plate 10. In order to further improve the structural stability, the clamp 40 can cover the middle area of the liquid storage tank 20 along the up and down directions, so that the middle position of the liquid storage tank 20 can be connected to the refrigerant plate 10 by setting the clamp 40 and the connecting piece 50, thereby improving the stability of the liquid storage tank 20 after assembly.
[0041] According to the refrigerant side component 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, Figure 1 The connector 50 includes a connecting plate 510, a bent portion 520 and a connecting portion 530. The bent portion 520 is connected between the connecting plate 510 and the connecting portion 530. The connecting portion 530 is connected to the lower end of the connecting plate 510 and extends in a direction away from the liquid storage tank 20. A positioning hole 501 is provided on the connecting portion 530. The clamp 40 surrounds the middle part of the liquid storage tank 20. The connecting plate 510 is connected to the clamp 40. The connecting plate 510 is attached to the outer wall of the liquid storage tank 20 and extends downward. The bent portion 520 is bent in a direction away from the liquid storage tank 20. The positioning hole 501 on the connecting portion 530 is suitable for fixed connection with the refrigerant plate 10 to connect the clamp 40 with the refrigerant plate 10.

The extension portion 120 can play a role of avoiding and limiting along the circumference of the liquid storage tank 20, which can improve the structural stability after assembly and help improve the compactness of the structure of the refrigerant side component 100. The extension portion 120 can also be used to install other components to make full use of the space on the upper end surface of the refrigerant plate 10 or the vertical space.

In other words, the thermal management integrated device 1000 can integrate the refrigerant side component 100, the water side component 12 and the water heater 13 together, which can facilitate the connection of the water heater 13 with the water side component 12, and the connection of the water side component 12 with the refrigerant side component 100, which is conducive to simplifying the connecting pipelines, improving the compactness of the structure, and facilitating the arrangement in the vehicle and the maintenance of the thermal management integrated device 1000.
[0045] Furthermore, the thermal management integrated device 1000 further includes a support assembly 14, wherein the refrigerant side assembly 100 is connected to the support assembly 14, and the water heater 13 is installed on the support assembly 14. In other words, the support assembly 14 can be used to install and support the refrigerant side assembly 100 and the water heater 13, so that the refrigerant side assembly 100, the water side assembly 12 and the water heater 13 can be easily connected through the support assembly 14, and it is beneficial to improve the overall structural compactness and stability of the thermal management integrated device 1000.
[0046] According to the thermal management integrated device 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, by connecting the refrigerant side component 100 and the water heater 13 on the support component 14, and the refrigerant side component 100 is connected to the water side component 12, and the water heater 13 is connected to the water side component 12, the refrigerant side component 100, the water side component 12 and the water heater 13 can be integrated and arranged, which is beneficial to improving the structural compactness and stability of the thermal management integrated device 1000.
[0047] In actual application, when the thermal management integrated device 1000 is applied in a vehicle, the water side component 12 can use water to exchange heat with components in the vehicle, so as to improve the heat exchange effect and be environmentally friendly. The water side component 12 is connected to the refrigerant side component 100, and can use the refrigerant phase change heat to exchange heat with the water side component 12, thereby achieving a temperature regulation effect. During assembly, the refrigerant side component 100 is connected to the support component 14, which can facilitate the positioning of the refrigerant side component 100, and the support component 14 can improve the structural stability. In addition, the water heater 13 is connected to the water side component 12, which can facilitate the heating of water, shorten the distance between the water heater 13 and the water side component 12, and simplify the connection structure. The water heater 13 can be directly installed on the support component 14, so that the water heater 13 can be integrated into the thermal management integrated device 1000, and it is easy to assemble and improve the structural performance.

[0050] Among them, the water flow channel can be connected with the flow channel that needs heat exchange (such as the cockpit heat exchange flow channel, the battery heat exchange flow channel, etc.) to form a water circulation loop, and the refrigerant flow channel can form a refrigerant reflux through a combination of a compressor, a condenser, a throttle valve, and an evaporator connected in series in sequence, and the refrigerant reflux cooperates with the water circulation loop for heat exchange.
[0051] In some examples of the present invention, a first sensor is provided in the water flow channel, and the first sensor can be used to monitor the temperature or pressure of the fluid in the water flow channel, so as to adjust and control according to the detected value.

Specifically, by providing a receiving space for placing the liquid level sensor, the sensor can detect the liquids in the two cavities at the same time, and the water levels in the two cavities can be detected by the liquid level sensors in the receiving space, which is conducive to simplifying the structure, and the detection positions are the same, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the detection.

The position of the water pump is also the same, preferably on the same side as the water valve, but not limited to the same side. Furthermore, the heat exchange device is relatively fixed or sealed to the water plate 122, which can ensure that the water side flow channel in the heat exchange device can be connected to the flow channel of the water side component 12. The entire water circuit is composed of the kettle 121, water plate 122, water valve assembly 126, water pump, heat exchange device and other thermal management components of the vehicle.
