[0027] Figure 1 It is a schematic structural diagram of the storage box of the present invention, Figure 2 is Figure 1 an exploded view of Figure 3 is Figure 1 a partial sectional view of Figure 4 It is a schematic diagram of the air flow direction inside the air-cooling channel, Figure 5 It is a schematic structural diagram inside the electronic control component, Figure 6 is Figure 5 a sectional view taken along the A-A direction in Figure 7 It is a schematic block diagram of the working principle of the fan controller, as shown in Figures 1-7 : In the storage box of the motorcycle in this embodiment, an installation position for installing the motorcycle electronic control component 2 and an air-cooling system are provided inside the storage box 1, and the air-cooling system includes an air-cooling channel 6 for cooling the electronic control component 2 in the installation position. The electronic control component 2 can be the electronic control component 2 of the motorcycle instrument or the electronic control component 2 of other systems of the motorcycle. The installation position can accommodate the electronic control component 2. Generally, the installation position is formed by the inner wall of the storage box 1 being recessed downward. The up and down directions are the up and down directions of the motorcycle. When the electronic control component 2 is installed in the installation position, the air-cooling system can cool the electronic control component 2, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the electronic control component 2 and avoiding phenomena such as jamming or crashing when the electronic control component 2 is running. The air-cooling channel 6 is formed inside the storage box 1, and the space inside the storage box 1 can be effectively utilized.

[0028] In this embodiment, a cooling fan 4 for generating cooling air for the air-cooling channel 6 is further provided inside the storage box 1. The cooling fan 4 generally includes structures such as a motor and fan blades, which is an application of the prior art and will not be elaborated here. The cooling fan 4 can be controlled to be turned on or off, which is convenient for targeted heat dissipation according to the operating conditions of the electronic control component 2.

[0029] In this embodiment, the air-cooling system further includes a cover member 3. The cover member 3 covers the installation position and forms the air-cooling channel 6 with the side wall of the storage box 1. The air inlet 101 of the air-cooling channel 6 is arranged on the side wall of the storage box 1. The cover member 3 is fixedly installed on the storage box 1 by bolts. After the electric control component 2 is installed in the installation position, the cover member 3 forms a cover for the electric control component 2 and forms the air-cooling channel 6 with the side wall of the storage box 1. Thus, there is no need to set up separate parts, reducing the use and assembly of parts, thereby reducing production costs. At the same time, by forming the air-cooling channel 6, the structure of the electric control component 2 in the prior art can be adaptively changed. There is no need to set up too many heat sinks 5, which can reduce the volume of the electric control component 2 and save the layout space of the electric control component 2.

[0030] In this embodiment, the cover member 3 includes a cover body and a wind guide cover. The cover body covers the installation position, and the wind guide cover is arranged at the edge of the cover body and encloses the air-cooling channel 6 with the side wall of the storage box 1. In this structure, front, back, left, and right are in the right-left, up-down directions relative to Figure 2 ... The cover body and the wind guide cover are integrally formed structures. The shape of the cover body is adapted to the shape of the installation position. The left edge and the front edge of the cover body are bent upwards to form a bent surface, and the bent surface is bent to form a horizontal surface. The bent surface and the horizontal surface constitute the structure of the wind guide cover. The wind guide cover and the side wall of the storage box 1 enclose the air-cooling channel 6, so that the structure of the storage box 1 itself can be reasonably utilized, and the use of parts can be reduced.

[0031] In this embodiment, the air-cooling system further includes a filter member 7. The filter member 7 is arranged in the air-cooling channel 6, and the cooling fan 4 is arranged in the air-cooling channel 6 and is located at a position behind the filter member 7 relative to the air-cooling channel 6. The filter member 7 is a foam filter element, which can be bonded or fixed in the air-cooling channel 6 by other fixing methods. The material of the foam filter element is generally polystyrene. Setting the foam filter element can expand the air inlet area compared with paper or cotton filter elements, and is easy to clean and reusable, which can reduce the later maintenance and use costs. The cooling fan 4 is located at a position behind the air-cooling channel 6 (behind the air inlet 101, that is, in the direction away from the air inlet 101). By setting the filter member 7, sundries and the like can be prevented from entering the air-cooling channel 6 and affecting the use of the cooling fan 4. The cooling fan 4 can be installed in the storage box 1 by bolts.

[0032] In this embodiment, the air-cooling channel 6 includes an air inlet section, an extension section, and an air outlet section. The air inlet section is communicated with the air inlet 101 and extends forward along the edge of the installation position to form the extension section. The extension section is bent to the right along the edge of the installation position to form the air outlet section. The air inlet section, the extension section, and the air outlet section form a Z-shaped structure. The forward and right directions of this structure are as Figure 3In the rightward and downward directions shown in the figure, the air-cooling channel 6 is formed along the edge of the installation position, so that the internal space of the storage box 1 can be reasonably utilized to complete the layout of the air-cooling channel 6, and the occupation of the internal storage space of the storage box 1 can be reduced; the outlet of the air outlet section corresponds to the electric control component 2.

[0033] The filter element 7 is located at the bend of the air inlet section, and the cooling fan 4 is located at the bend of the extension section. The filter element 7 is located at the connection of the air inlet section and the extension section, and the cooling fan 4 is located at the connection of the extension section and the air outlet section. Compared with setting the filter element 7 at the air inlet 101, the probability of damage to the filter element 7 can be reduced.

[0034] In this embodiment, the air-cooling system further includes a control unit, and the control unit includes a temperature sensor and a fan controller 9. The temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature when the electric control component 2 operates. The signal output end of the temperature sensor is connected to the signal input end of the fan controller 9, and the signal output end of the fan controller 9 is connected to the signal input end of the cooling fan 4. The electric control component 2 generally includes a housing and structures such as a processor 8 and peripheral circuits arranged in the housing. The temperature sensor is used to detect the temperature when the processor 8 operates, and the fan controller 9 can be a combination of a CPU and peripheral circuits.

[0035] In this embodiment, the fan controller 9 is used to control the opening and closing of the cooling fan 4 according to the temperature when the electric control component 2 operates. When the temperature is greater than or equal to the set temperature I, the cooling fan 4 is controlled to start, and when the temperature drops to less than or equal to the set temperature II, the cooling fan 4 is controlled to close. The fan controller 9 controls the opening or closing of the cooling fan 4 through the temperature when the electric control component 2 operates. The electric control component 2 is generally provided with a housing, and a plurality of heat sinks 5 are arranged at the bottom of the housing, which is an application of the prior art and will not be elaborated here. When the temperature of the electric control component 2 is less than the set temperature I, the cooling fan 4 does not operate, and the electric control component 2 dissipates heat through the heat sinks 5 at the bottom. The temperature I and the temperature II can be set according to actual needs.

[0036] In this embodiment, the temperature I is 90 °, and the temperature II is 80 °. When the temperature of the electric control component 2 is greater than or equal to 90 °, the fan controller 9 controls the cooling fan 4 to operate, and when the temperature of the electric control component 2 drops to less than or equal to 80 °, the fan controller 9 controls the cooling fan 4 to stop operating.
