[0049] Figure 1 It is a cross-sectional view of a horizontal compressor according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 A partial enlarged view of the . Figure 3 yes Figure 1 The cross-sectional view along the AA axis. Figures 1 to 3As shown, a horizontal compressor of the present invention comprises: a middle shell 1 and a front shell enclosed together to form a first cavity 5, an air inlet suction plate 2 and a rear shell 3. The first cavity 5 contains a motor, a movable scroll and a fixed scroll. The air inlet suction plate 2 is arranged on the side of the motor away from the movable scroll and docked with the middle shell 1. The first side of the air inlet suction plate 2 is provided with an annular flange protruding from the middle shell 1, and an inward step-type suction hole passing through the annular flange is provided. The inward step-type suction hole includes an outer section suction port 21 that is interconnected and an inner section suction port 22 whose diameter is smaller than the outer section suction port 21. The rear shell 3 and the second side of the air inlet suction plate 2 enclose together to form a second cavity 4 for accommodating a power circuit module. The axis of the outer section suction port 21 and the axis of the inner section suction port 22 are not colinear. The inner section suction port 22 guides the refrigerant entering from the outer section suction port 21 to at least move in a direction close to the second cavity 4 during the flow process. The horizontal compressor and the new energy vehicle of the present invention can accelerate the flow rate of the refrigerant and enhance the cooling effect on the power circuit module and improve the efficiency of the compressor through the stepped variable diameter structure of the air intake port without adding additional parts.
[0050] In a preferred embodiment, continue to refer to Figure 2 The relationship between the diameter D1 of the outer air intake port 21 and the diameter D2 of the inner air intake port 22 is: 0.53≤D2 / D1≤0.68, but this is not used as an example.
[0051] In a preferred embodiment, the relationship between the depth L1 of the outer section air intake port 21 and the depth L2 of the inner section air intake port 22 is: 0.3≤L2 / L1≤1, so that the refrigerant flows through the air intake pressure plate and enters a throttling section, so that the refrigerant flow rate is increased and the cooling effect on the IPM is enhanced, but this is not used as an example.
[0052] In a preferred embodiment, the tubular inner wall of the inner section air suction port 22 is tangent to the plane where the first side of the air inlet air suction pressure plate 2 is located, but this is not an example.
[0053] In a preferred embodiment, the axis E1 of the outer air intake port 21 penetrates the annular flange along the thickness direction of the annular flange. The axis E1 of the outer air intake port 21 and the axis E2 of the inner air intake port 22 can be parallel or inclined, but this is not an example.
[0054] In a preferred embodiment, the distance from the axis E2 of the inner section air intake port 22 to the bottom surface of the rear shell is W, (D2 / 2)mm≤W≤(D2 / 2+3)mm, so as to guide the air intake flow toward the IPM and enhance the cooling effect on the IPM, but this is not used as an example.
[0055] In a preferred embodiment, the first end of the inner air inlet 22 is connected to the outer air inlet 21, and the second end of the inner air inlet 22 extends toward the projection area of the first side of the air inlet pressure plate 2 close to the power circuit module based on the plane direction of the air inlet pressure plate 2. This is equivalent to tilting the inner air inlet 22 around the Z axis toward the bottom surface of the rear shell, and guiding the air flow to the IPM (IPM stands for Intelligent Power Module, which is the abbreviation of Intelligent Power Module) location area, but this is not used as an example.
[0056] In a preferred embodiment, see Figure 1 An angle transition is provided between the outer air intake port 21 and the inner air intake port 22, and the value range of the angle α of the angle transition is 105°≤∠α≤165°, but this is not taken as an example.
[0057] In a preferred embodiment, the refrigerant flow rate through the inner section air intake port 22 is greater than the refrigerant flow rate through the outer section air intake port 21 , but this is not an example.
[0058] The stepped variable diameter structure of the air intake port of the present invention increases the refrigerant flow rate and enhances the cooling effect on the IPM; the eccentric design of the inner air intake port 22 (small diameter flow channel) makes the flow channel close to the bottom surface of the rear shell, thereby enhancing the cooling effect on the IPM; the inner air intake port 22 is designed at an inclined angle relative to the outer air intake port 21 (large diameter flow channel), so that the flow channel is directed to the area where the IPM is located, thereby enhancing the cooling effect on the IPM; compared with the air intake port structure without a stepped structure, the bottom surface of the rear shell can be closer to the compressor pump body, which can enhance the cooling effect on the controller components and increase the design space of the controller structure.
[0059] The following is in conjunction with the instruction manual Figures 1 to 3 To introduce the specific implementation of the horizontal compressor of the present invention:
[0060] See also Figures 1 to 3As shown, in the horizontal compressor of the present invention, the middle shell 1 and the front shell are enclosed to form a first cavity 5, an air inlet suction plate 2 and a rear shell 3. The first cavity 5 contains a motor, a movable scroll and a fixed scroll. The air inlet suction plate 2 is arranged on the side of the motor away from the movable scroll and docked with the middle shell 1. The first side of the air inlet suction plate 2 is provided with an annular flange protruding from the middle shell 1, and an inward step-type suction hole passing through the annular flange is provided. The inward step-type suction hole includes an outer section suction port 21 that is interconnected and an inner section suction port 22 whose diameter is smaller than the outer section suction port 21. The rear shell 3 and the second side of the air inlet suction plate 2 are enclosed to form a second cavity 4 for accommodating a power circuit module. The axis of the outer section suction port 21 and the axis of the inner section suction port 22 are not colinear. The inner section suction port 22 guides the refrigerant entering from the outer section suction port 21 to at least move in a direction close to the second cavity 4 during the flow process. The relationship between the diameter D1 of the outer section air intake port 21 and the diameter D2 of the inner section air intake port 22 is: 0.53≤D2 / D1≤0.68. The relationship between the depth L1 of the outer section air intake port 21 and the depth L2 of the inner section air intake port 22 is: 0.3≤L2 / L1≤1. The tubular inner wall of the inner section air intake port 22 is tangent to the plane where the first side of the air inlet air intake pressure plate 2 is located, and the distance from the axis E2 of the inner section air intake port 22 to the bottom surface of the rear shell is W, (D2 / 2)mm≤W≤(D2 / 2+3)mm, so as to guide the air flow to the IPM and enhance the cooling effect on the IPM. The first end of the inner section air intake port 22 is connected to the outer section air intake port 21, and the second end of the inner section air intake port 22 extends to the projection area of the first side of the air inlet air intake pressure plate 2 close to the power circuit module. An oblique transition is provided at the outer section air intake port 21 and the inner section air intake port 22, and the value range of the angle α of the oblique transition is 105°≤∠α≤165°, but this is not used as an example. The refrigerant flow rate through the inner section air intake port 22 is greater than the refrigerant flow rate through the outer section air intake port 21. The present invention designs the compressor air intake port as a two-stage variable diameter structure, the first section is to match the pipe diameter of the air-conditioning system, and the second section is a guide and acceleration channel for the refrigerant intake airflow. Through this structural scheme, the compressor intake airflow is enhanced with an accelerated throttling process after passing through the air intake port, the refrigerant flow rate is increased, and the cooling effect on the controller is increased. Compared with the ordinary air intake port, the bottom surface of the rear shell can be closer to the compressor pump body side when the position of the air intake port of the compressor and the whole vehicle remains unchanged, and the axial space for the arrangement of the control panel components can be more.
[0061] Figure 4 FIG. 2 is a partial enlarged view of a horizontal compressor according to another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4As shown, another horizontal compressor of the present invention is different from the previous horizontal compressor in that the first end of the inner section air intake port 22 is connected to the outer section air intake port 21, and in the vertical direction perpendicular to the plane where the air inlet air intake pressure plate 2 is located, the second end of the inner section air intake port 22 extends in the direction close to the second cavity 4. It is equivalent to the inner section air intake port 22 deflecting the air intake port around the X-axis toward the IPM module area, and guiding the air flow direction of the air intake to the area where the IPM is located, but this is not used as an example.
[0062] According to actual needs, the first end of the inner air intake port 22 can also be set to be connected to the outer air intake port 21, and in the vertical direction perpendicular to the plane where the air inlet air intake pressure plate 2 is located, the second end of the inner air intake port 22 extends toward the direction close to the second cavity 4, and in the plane direction based on the air inlet air intake pressure plate 2, the second end of the inner air intake port 22 also extends toward the projection area of the power circuit module on the first side of the air inlet air intake pressure plate 2, but this is not used as an example.
[0063] The present invention also provides a new energy vehicle, which adopts the above-mentioned horizontal compressor. The other relevant technical features and technical effects are as described above and will not be repeated here. The present invention helps to improve the whole machine NVH (Noise, Vibration, Harshness, which is a comprehensive issue to measure the quality of automobile manufacturing and is the most direct and superficial feeling for automobile users) of new energy vehicles.
[0064] In summary, the horizontal compressor and new energy vehicle of the present invention can accelerate the refrigerant flow rate, enhance the cooling effect on the power circuit module, and improve the compressor efficiency through the stepped variable diameter structure of the air intake port without adding additional parts.
[0065] The above contents are further detailed descriptions of the present invention in combination with specific preferred embodiments, and it cannot be determined that the specific implementation of the present invention is limited to these descriptions. For ordinary technicians in the technical field to which the present invention belongs, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present invention, which should be regarded as falling within the protection scope of the present invention.
