Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to a heat dissipation system for a dump truck, in particular to a high-temperature heat dissipation system for an articulated dump truck. Background Art

[0002] The existing articulated dump truck engine heat dissipation basically relies on the radiator located at the front of the vehicle. The radiator dissipates the heat of the coolant into the air through aluminum fins, and then the hot air is taken away by the cold air flow sucked in by the engine fan. The existing solution can meet the ambient temperature of the equipment in most countries, but in some areas with extremely high temperature seasons (such as Saudi Arabia, Tajikistan, etc.), the equipment will have to shut down due to high temperature alarms.

[0003] The causes of the above technical problems and defects; (1) The existing radiator located at the front of the vehicle falls on the frame and is covered inside the hood. Therefore, its width is limited by the left and right longitudinal beams of the front frame, its height is limited by the frame and the top surface of the hood, and its thickness is limited by the front end of the engine fan and the hood. Its overall heat dissipation area has no possibility of being expanded based on the existing space; (2) The layout of the radiator needs to take into account the inflow of cold air and the discharge of hot air, so as to avoid the hot air returning to the front of the radiator, causing the radiator to repeatedly cool the hot air and reduce the cooling efficiency. The existing radiator is located at the front of the vehicle. Cold air enters from the front of the vehicle and passes through the main cooling fan. The hot air flow that is replaced will escape to the rear of the frame due to the constraints of the hood, frame and bottom guard plate, and will also escape from the air outlet on the side of the hood. Therefore, the scattered hot air flow will limit the layout of the auxiliary radiator. The already compact front frame makes it difficult to effectively ensure the cold air inlet and hot air discharge of the auxiliary radiator, and ensure that the airflow of the newly added auxiliary radiator does not interfere with the airflow of the main radiator.

[0004] (3) The existing radiator located at the front of the vehicle, in addition to natural air intake, mainly relies on a direct-connected fan driven by the front end of the engine or a fan with a clutch. The fan diameter is limited by the torque that the engine connection hub can withstand and the width of the frame longitudinal beam. Its rotation speed is also limited by the engine speed. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a high-temperature heat dissipation system for an articulated dump truck, which expands the heat dissipation capacity of the existing main radiator by adding an auxiliary heat dissipation component, and the selected side box side near-top-out solution can provide additional heat dissipation capacity without interfering with the heat dissipation airflow of the main radiator. The hydraulic motor and the self-made heat dissipation bracket in the auxiliary heat dissipation component solution remove the diameter size restriction of the auxiliary cooling fan, allowing the fan to rotate at a higher speed and bring in a larger air intake, thus opening up the feasibility of vehicle attendance in extreme high temperature conditions, which can improve customer satisfaction with the equipment, increase the benefits brought by the equipment, and safeguard the rights and interests of customers.

[0006] Open up a suitable space in the articulated dump truck, arrange the auxiliary radiator reasonably, plan the cold air inlet and hot air exhaust channels for the auxiliary radiator, ensure smooth cold air intake, and avoid the interference of hot air exhaust on the air intake and exhaust of the main radiator; reasonably place the auxiliary cooling fan of the auxiliary radiator, the speed of the auxiliary cooling fan is regulated by the hydraulic motor, the cooling bracket is stable and can withstand the torque caused by the high-speed operation of the auxiliary cooling fan, so as to break through the heat dissipation limit of the original vehicle and provide the possibility for the equipment to operate smoothly in extremely high temperature environments.
