Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of new energy technology, and specifically to a hydrogen supply system for a mine car. Background Art

[0002] At present, in the field of new energy mining cars, there are mainly two different technical routes: pure electric and hydrogen fuel cell hybrid. Due to the shortcomings of lithium batteries such as long charging time, short cruising range, and poor low-temperature adaptability, hydrogen fuel cell mining cars have developed rapidly in recent years. However, due to the high power demand and long cruising range of mining cars, the power system of a mining car is often composed of multiple sets of fuel cells. At the same time, in order to meet the hydrogen consumption requirements of mining cars, more hydrogen bottles need to be configured, and hydrogen bottles often need to be arranged in a decentralized manner. Multiple hydrogen bottles provide hydrogen to multiple sets of fuel cells, which often results in uneven hydrogen distribution. On the one hand, it will affect the power performance, and on the other hand, it will lead to the life of the fuel cell and hydrogen bottle.

[0009] Furthermore, any of the hydrogen filling ports is connected to an infrared temperature sensor for detecting the temperature of the hydrogen.

[0010] Furthermore, the hydrogen discharge end of the hydrogen storage system is connected to a hydrogen discharge pipeline for discharging hydrogen.

[0012] In practical applications, the hydrogen inlet ends and hydrogen use ends of all hydrogen bottles are connected in parallel through high-pressure hydrogen inlet pipelines and high-pressure hydrogen use pipelines, and are respectively aggregated together to achieve hydrogen communication between each hydrogen bottle. When hydrogen is refueled through the hydrogen refueling assembly, the gas storage capacity of each hydrogen bottle is ensured to remain consistent; when hydrogen is used, the hydrogen storage capacity of the hydrogen bottles in the hydrogen storage system is evenly distributed to each fuel cell system through the high-pressure hydrogen use pipeline, so that the hydrogen storage capacity in the hydrogen storage system is evenly distributed; the layout structure of the present application realizes the average distribution of hydrogen storage capacity, improves hydrogen utilization, and increases the service life of fuel cells and hydrogen bottles.
