Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of electric vehicle charging cables, and in particular to a direct current liquid-cooled charging cable and a preparation method thereof. Background Art
[0002] In recent years, the new energy vehicle market has developed rapidly. Buses, taxis, logistics vehicles and shared cars have an urgent need for high-power fast charging, which shortens charging time, reduces operating costs and improves operating efficiency, directly leading to increased operating revenue. However, the small number of public charging parking spaces, low power battery range and long charging time are still key factors restricting the development of new energy vehicles; especially on highways, users hope to shorten charging time and reduce waiting, and the demand for fast charging is more urgent. Therefore, how to improve vehicle range and shorten charging time has become an industry consensus.
[0003] The electric vehicle charging cable is a carrier for transmitting electric energy between the electric vehicle and the charging pile. To achieve high-power fast charging of electric vehicles, not only the car battery is acceptable, but also the current sharing and control of the charging pile can be satisfied, but also a charging cable with high current transmission capacity is required. The high-power charging cables on the market are oil-cooled and water-cooled according to the different cooling media. Oil cooling is to design the insulation layer into an oil pipe, directly immerse the conductor part in oil, and increase the current carrying capacity through the circulation and heat dissipation of the insulating oil. This form of cable has a complex structure and high requirements for the conductor insulation material and structure. Another type is a water-cooled cable, which is to add some water pipes inside the cable. The cooling medium is a non-insulated liquid, which can be pure water or antifreeze, etc. The heat generated by the cable is conducted through the contact between the insulation and the water pipe. This conduction method is for the cable to enter the liquid, and then the heat is taken away by the circulation of the liquid. This is not the effect of direct cooling of the conductor. To this end, a better structure, better cooling effect, and high-power charging cable are designed to make up for the shortcomings of the existing technology. Summary of the invention
