[0040] In this embodiment, a flow channel plate 20 and a jump pipe 40 are arranged on the substrate, the flow channel plate 20 has a high-pressure refrigerant flow channel, the jump pipe 40 has a low-pressure refrigerant flow channel, and a heat exchange component 30 is arranged to throttle the high-pressure refrigerant to a low-pressure refrigerant, so that the high-pressure refrigerant flow channel and the low-pressure refrigerant flow channel are separated, thereby reducing heat loss during the operation of the refrigerant and improving the heat exchange efficiency.
[0041] Furthermore, the high-pressure interface includes a first interface 211, which is disposed on the substrate 10 and is used to connect to the exhaust port of the compressor 50, and the compressor 50 is used to compress a high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant. The compressor 50 is an electric compressor.
[0042] Furthermore, the heat exchange assembly 30 includes: a heat exchanger assembly 31, the heat exchanger assembly 31 is connected to at least one of the high-pressure interface and the low-pressure interface, and the heat exchanger assembly 31 is located downstream of the compressor 50; a sensor assembly 32, the sensor assembly 32 is arranged on the flow channel plate 20 and the jump pipe 40, the sensor assembly 32 is used to collect the temperature and pressure in the high-pressure refrigerant flow channel, and the sensor assembly 32 is used to collect the temperature and pressure in the low-pressure refrigerant flow channel; a valve assembly 33, the valve assembly 33 is connected to the high-pressure interface, at least part of the valve assembly 33 is arranged at the boundary between the high-pressure refrigerant flow channel and the low-pressure refrigerant flow channel, and the valve assembly 33 is used to throttle the high-pressure refrigerant to a low-pressure refrigerant.
[0043] Specifically, the heat exchanger assembly 31 is located downstream of the compressor 50, which helps to utilize the high-pressure heat energy generated by the compressor and improve the energy efficiency of the entire heat exchange system. The sensor assembly 32 is arranged on the flow channel plate 20 and the jump pipe 40, and can accurately monitor the temperature and pressure in the high-pressure refrigerant flow channel and the low-pressure refrigerant flow channel. This real-time monitoring helps to control the operation of the system and ensure that the refrigerant works in the best state. The valve assembly 33 is connected to the high-pressure interface and is arranged at the boundary between the high-pressure refrigerant flow channel and the low-pressure refrigerant flow channel, and is used to throttle the high-pressure refrigerant to a low-pressure refrigerant. This precise throttling control helps to maintain the refrigerant flow balance in the system and improve the refrigeration efficiency. Through the coordinated work of the sensor assembly 32 and the valve assembly 33, the pressure and temperature in the system can be adjusted in real time, thereby improving the stability and reliability of the system.
[0044] Furthermore, the high-pressure interface also includes a second interface 212 and a third interface 213 that are adjacently arranged, and the heat exchanger assembly 31 includes: a first condenser 311, which is arranged downstream of the compressor 50, and the first condenser 311 is connected to the exhaust port of the compressor 50; a second condenser 312, which is arranged downstream of the first condenser 311, the inlet of the second condenser 312 is connected to the second interface 212, and the outlet of the second condenser 312 is connected to the third interface 213, and the first condenser 311 and the second condenser 312 are used to condense high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant into medium-low-temperature and high-pressure liquid refrigerant.
[0045] Specifically, by setting up two condensers, multi-stage condensation of high-temperature and high-pressure gaseous refrigerant can be achieved, the condensation efficiency can be improved, and the refrigerant can be more stably converted into a medium-low-temperature and high-pressure liquid. The first condenser and the second condenser can be controlled independently, and their respective working states can be adjusted according to actual needs to achieve more precise temperature control. During the condensation process, as the refrigerant temperature decreases, its pressure will also decrease accordingly, which helps to reduce the pressure loss in the system and improve the overall efficiency of the system.
[0046] Furthermore, the valve assembly 33 includes: a first electronic expansion valve 331, which is disposed on the flow channel plate 20 and is located between the first condenser 311 and the second condenser 312.

[0047] Furthermore, the valve assembly 33 also includes: a second electronic expansion valve 332, which is arranged on the flow channel plate 20 and is located downstream of the second condenser 312; a third electronic expansion valve 333, which is arranged on the flow channel plate 20 and is located downstream of the second condenser 312. The liquid refrigerant of medium-low temperature and high pressure condensed by the second condenser 312 is throttled into a low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixed refrigerant through the second electronic expansion valve 332 and the third electronic expansion valve 333.
[0048] Among them, the electronic expansion valve adjusts the flow of refrigerant through electronic control, thereby achieving precise control of system temperature and pressure. In the thermal management integrated module, the electronic expansion valve can accurately adjust the flow of refrigerant according to the actual needs of the system to achieve precise control of temperature and pressure. By accurately controlling the flow of refrigerant, the electronic expansion valve can reduce the amount of refrigerant circulating in the system, thereby reducing energy consumption and improving the overall energy efficiency of the system. The electronic expansion valve can quickly respond to external temperature and pressure changes and adjust the flow of refrigerant in time to keep the system running stably.

The low-temperature and low-pressure gas-liquid mixed refrigerant after throttling by the second electronic expansion valve 332 evaporates into a low-temperature and low-pressure gaseous refrigerant through the evaporator 313.
[0050] Specifically, by arranging the evaporator 313 downstream of the second electronic expansion valve 332, it can be ensured that the gas-liquid mixed refrigerant is fully evaporated when flowing through the evaporator 313, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency. The second electronic expansion valve 332 can accurately control the refrigerant flow rate passing through, and then control the evaporation rate and pressure in the evaporator 313, thereby achieving precise control of the refrigeration system. By connecting the inlet of the evaporator with the fourth interface and the outlet with the fifth interface, the flow path of the refrigerant can be optimized, the pressure loss can be reduced, and the overall performance of the system can be improved. By arranging the fourth interface and the fifth interface on the flow channel plate, space can be saved, making the entire system more compact and convenient for installation and maintenance.

[0053] Specifically, this arrangement allows the low-pressure and low-temperature gas-liquid mixed refrigerant that has been throttled by the third electronic expansion valve 333 to flow into the refrigeration equipment 314 using the first jump pipe 41, thereby separating the low-pressure refrigerant flow channel and the high-pressure refrigerant flow channel from the third electronic expansion valve 333, reducing the heat loss of the refrigerant and improving the working effect.
