Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to a heater, an integrated compressor, and a vehicle, and more particularly, to a heater, an integrated compressor including the heater, and a vehicle including the integrated compressor. Background Technology

[0002] The description in this section provides background information related to the present invention only and does not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] In the vehicle's thermal management system, the heater, as a key component, needs to work in conjunction with the system's refrigerant to achieve precise temperature control of the fluid, thereby providing a stable temperature environment for key modules such as the vehicle's air conditioning system, battery cooling system, and motor cooling system, in order to ensure the vehicle's operating efficiency and reliability.

[0004] Currently, the flat plate heaters widely used in vehicle thermal management systems can meet basic heating needs, but they have significant shortcomings in practical applications and are difficult to adapt to the stringent requirements of compactness and efficiency in vehicle scenarios.

[0005] On the one hand, flat-plate heaters are limited by their structural design, and most adopt the form of splicing multiple components and stacking heat sinks, resulting in a large overall size and weight. Since the vehicle space is already compact, the excessive size not only increases the difficulty of installation layout and occupies the assembly space of core components such as batteries and motors, but may also affect the rational planning of fluid pipelines due to layout constraints, reducing the system integration.

[0006] On the other hand, flat-plate heaters generally suffer from uneven heating. The core reason lies in the unreasonable layout of the heating elements and design flaws in the heat conduction path, leading to an unbalanced heat distribution across the plate, with the central area becoming overheated while the peripheral areas are underheated. This uneven heating causes large temperature fluctuations in the fluid flowing through the heater, making it impossible to provide a stable temperature environment for components such as batteries and motors, thus affecting their performance and lifespan. Simultaneously, localized overheating areas result in significant energy waste, increasing overall vehicle energy consumption, while insufficiently heated areas require the heater to operate under continuous high loads, further exacerbating energy loss and increasing the risk of component aging.

[0007] In view of the shortcomings of the existing technology, how to provide a heating assembly technology solution that can adapt to the compact space of the vehicle, reduce heat energy waste, and thus meet the stringent requirements of vehicle thermal management system for compactness and efficiency has become an urgent technical problem to be solved in this field.

[0008] Furthermore, it should be noted that the above description of the technical background is merely for the purpose of providing a clear and complete explanation of the technical solutions of the present invention and facilitating understanding by those skilled in the art. It should not be assumed that these technical solutions are known to those skilled in the art simply because they have been described in the background section of this invention. Summary of the Invention

[0009] This invention is made to solve the above-mentioned technical problems, and its purpose is to provide a heater, an integrated compressor and a vehicle that can effectively reduce volume and weight, balance heating efficiency, reduce energy consumption and meet the compact and efficient requirements of vehicle thermal management.

[0010] To achieve the purpose of this invention, an integrated compressor is provided, comprising a controller, a heater, and a compressor body, wherein the heater, controller, and compressor body are connected as one unit, and the heater comprises: a cover having a mounting portion and a receiving portion, the receiving portion having a first hole and a second hole; and a heating tube, the heating tube being a single tube and comprising opposing ends, one of the opposing ends having a liquid inlet and the other of the opposing ends having a liquid outlet, the heating tube being located in the receiving portion, and the opposing ends passing through the first hole and the second hole respectively and being fixedly connected to the first hole and the second hole.

[0011] According to the above-described configuration, the integrated compressor of the present invention integrates the heater, controller and compressor body into one unit. The heater adopts the form of a single heating tube, which can simplify the heater structure, reduce the number of parts, and reduce manufacturing costs and assembly difficulty. The compact integrated layout can reduce the overall size of the machine and adapt to the compact requirements of vehicle space.

[0012] Preferably, the heating element is fixedly connected to the cover near the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet by means of adhesive application, bolt fastening or welding, and the cover is made of metal and is integrally formed.

[0013] As described above, by fixing the heating tube to a metal cover near the inlet and outlet, a double reliable support can be formed for the heating tube. The high strength of the metal cover provides solid support, preventing loosening and displacement caused by vehicle vibration and liquid leakage. At the same time, the thermal conductivity of the metal can be used to disperse the heat gathered at the end, improving heating uniformity and operational stability.

[0014] Preferably, the heating tube is formed in the form of a straight tube.

[0015] As described above, by making the heating tube into a straight tube and the internal fluid channel into a straight structure, the flow resistance inside the tube can be minimized, energy loss caused by bending can be avoided, and flow efficiency can be improved.

[0016] Preferably, the cover is fixedly connected to the base plate of the controller via the mounting part, and the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet are located on the side of the cover opposite to the base plate.

[0017] Based on the configuration described above, the heater and controller can be tightly integrated, the connection path can be shortened, and interference between the liquid inlet and outlet and other components can be avoided, which facilitates pipeline planning and connection.

[0018] Preferably, the mounting portion includes a flange formed at the outer edge of the cover, the flange protruding from the cover toward the base plate, and a gap is formed between the flange and the base plate.

[0019] As described above, the outer edge of the lid has a flange protruding towards the base plate and is located outside the base plate to form a wrapping structure. This effectively protects the edge of the base plate, prevents dust and impurities from entering the connection area, improves environmental adaptability, and enhances the structural strength and rigidity of the lid through the flange. In addition, the gap formed between the flange and the base plate can guide the sealant to spread evenly, fully filling the tiny gaps in the gap to form a continuous sealing ring. Together with the main sealing layer on the contact surface between the lid and the base plate, this forms a double sealing protection.

[0020] Preferably, a flow exchanger is provided at the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet, which can change the flow direction of the liquid.

[0021] Based on the above-described configuration, the converter can adapt to different pipeline routing requirements and avoid installation interference; it also provides auxiliary support to the end of the heating tube, further maintaining its positional stability.

[0022] Preferably, an adapter plate is provided between the heating element and the controller, and the heating element is electrically connected to the controller via the adapter plate.

[0023] As described above, the adapter board can centrally integrate the electrical circuits of the heating element and the controller, avoiding messy and interfering wiring, improving space utilization and connection reliability; at the same time, the adapter board can block heat conduction to the controller, ensuring stable operation of the controller.

[0024] Preferably, a temperature sensor is provided in the heating tube at a position adjacent to at least one of the liquid inlet and the liquid outlet, and the temperature sensor is electrically connected to the controller via the adapter plate.

[0025] Based on the above configuration, the liquid temperature can be monitored in real time through a temperature sensor to achieve closed-loop heating control; the adapter board can centrally connect the wiring, avoiding messy layout and improving space utilization.

[0026] Preferably, a wiring terminal is provided at the part of the heating tube where no heating part is provided, the heating part is connected to the adapter plate via the wiring terminal, and is electrically connected to the controller via the adapter plate.

[0027] Based on the above configuration, the interference and insulation risks of direct wiring to the heating unit can be avoided by using the wiring terminals, thereby improving electrical safety; the circuit can be centrally integrated by the adapter board, which simplifies wiring, reduces losses and interference, and improves the reliability of the electrical system; in addition, the adapter board also has thermal insulation function, which can reduce heat loss and thermal impact on the controller.

[0028] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a heater for use in an integrated compressor. The heater includes: a cover having a mounting portion and a receiving portion, the receiving portion having a first hole and a second hole; and a heating tube, the heating tube being a single tube and including opposing ends, one of the opposing ends having a liquid inlet and the other of the opposing ends having a liquid outlet, the heating tube being located in the receiving portion, and the opposing ends passing through the first hole and the second hole respectively and being fixedly connected to the first hole and the second hole.

[0029] As described above, the heater of the present invention adopts a single tube structure, which is compact and can reduce the volume to fit the vehicle space; in addition, the heating tube can achieve uniform heating compared to a flat plate heater.

[0030] Furthermore, the present invention also provides a vehicle comprising the integrated compressor described above. Attached Figure Description

[0046] Various embodiments of the present invention will now be described in detail, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings.

[0047] Although the invention has been described in conjunction with exemplary embodiments, it should be understood that this specification is not intended to limit the invention to the exemplary embodiments described below. Rather, the invention is intended to cover not only these exemplary embodiments, but also various alternatives, modifications, equivalents, and other embodiments that may be included within the spirit and scope of the invention as defined by the appended claims.

[0048] The following specific embodiments illustrate the implementation of the present invention. Those skilled in the art can understand the advantages and effects of the present invention from the content disclosed in this specification. The present invention can be implemented or applied through other different specific embodiments, and various details in this specification can also be modified and changed based on different viewpoints and applications without departing from the concept of the present invention. Furthermore, the accompanying drawings of the present invention are for simple illustrative purposes only and are not depictions of actual dimensions; this is stated in advance. The following embodiments will further describe the relevant technical content of the present invention in detail, but the disclosed content is not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0049] The following is for reference Figure 1 The overall structure of the integrated compressor of the present invention will be described.

[0050] like Figure 1 As shown, the integrated compressor of the present invention includes a heater 100, a controller 200 and a compressor body 300 in sequence.

[0051] The heater 100 is integrated into the integrated compressor and is installed on the side of the controller 200 opposite to the compressor body 300.

[0052] Furthermore, the aforementioned controller 200 can simultaneously control the heater 100 and the compressor body 300.

[0053] This design allows for the miniaturization of the compressor's overall structure, making it suitable for the compact space requirements of vehicles.

[0054] The following is for reference Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mounting method of the heater 100 of the integrated compressor of the present invention relative to the controller 200 will be described.

[0055] like Figure 2 As shown, the heater 100 mainly includes a cover 1 and a heating tube 2.

[0056] The aforementioned box cover 1 is integrally formed and mainly comprises an mounting portion 11 and a receiving portion 12.

[0057] Specifically, the aforementioned box cover 1 is made of metal and can be integrally formed by die casting, machining, stamping, etc. More preferably, the aforementioned box cover 1 is formed by sheet metal stamping.

[0058] Sheet metal stamping can achieve integrated molding of structures such as mounting parts and housing parts. After molding, the structure has high strength and good density, can withstand vehicle vibration pressure, and improves stability and service life. In addition, this processing method has high production efficiency, is suitable for mass production, and can reduce manufacturing costs.

[0059] The aforementioned cover 1 is fixedly mounted to the controller 200 via the mounting part 11, and the aforementioned receiving part 12 is formed as a slot in the cover 1 to receive at least a portion of the aforementioned heating tube 2.

[0060] In addition, the aforementioned receiving portion 12 has a first hole 121 and a second hole 122 that are opposite to each other.

[0061] The heating tube 2 is formed as a single tube and has opposite ends in the extension direction of the heating tube 2. An inlet 21 is provided at one of the opposite ends and an outlet 22 is provided at the other of the opposite ends.

[0062] The liquid medium to be heated flows into the heating channel of the heating tube 2 through the inlet 21, and after being heated in the heating channel, it flows out through the outlet 22.

[0063] By adopting a single-tube structure, the overall structure of the heater 100 is simplified, which can significantly reduce the number of parts, thereby reducing manufacturing costs and improving assembly efficiency and operational reliability.

[0064] Furthermore, the heating tube 2 extends through the first hole 121 and the second hole 122 of the receiving portion 12, so that the liquid inlet 21 and the liquid outlet 22 are located outside the receiving portion 12 and on the other side of the heater 100 opposite to the controller 200.

[0065] The heating tubes 2 are fixedly connected to the cover 1 at the liquid inlet 21 and liquid outlet 22 by means of adhesive application, bolt fastening or welding.

[0066] like Figure 2 As shown, after the heating tube 2 is extended through the receiving part 12 and fixedly connected to the cover 1, a flow exchange member 23 can also be fitted at the position of the liquid inlet 21 and the liquid outlet 22 of the heating tube 2.

[0067] The aforementioned converter 23 is fitted over the liquid inlet 21 and liquid outlet 22 of the heating tube 2 through a sealing gasket (not shown). The sealing gasket can effectively block liquid leakage and ensure the sealing reliability of the connection.

[0068] Moreover, the aforementioned converter 23 has a variety of different structural shapes. Depending on the actual pipeline routing and installation space of the vehicle thermal management system, the flow direction of liquid flowing in through the inlet 21 and out through the outlet 22 can be flexibly changed by replacing the converter with a converter of different structural shapes, thereby avoiding installation interference problems caused by pipeline routing conflicts.

[0069] In addition, a first fixing stud DYLZ is welded to the cover 1 at the position corresponding to the converter 23, and the converter 23 is fixedly connected to the first fixing stud DYLZ by fixing bolts.

[0070] This configuration effectively ensures the structural stability of the converter during device operation, preventing the converter from becoming loose or displaced due to vehicle vibration, thus ensuring the continuous reliability of the liquid flow direction control function.

[0071] It is worth noting that the converter 23, which is fixedly installed at both ends of the heating tube 2, can also serve to fix and support the heating tube 2.

[0072] This support function can further and effectively maintain the relative stability of the heating element within the housing of the cover, ensure a safe gap between the heating element and surrounding components, and enable the heating element to achieve uniform heating and efficient heat exchange.

[0073] In addition, such as Figure 2 As shown, a plurality of second fixing studs DELZ are also fixedly connected to the mounting part 11 of the cover 1 by welding. The plurality of second fixing studs DELZ are used for mounting and fixing the adapter plate 5 described later, and are distributed at equal intervals along the long side of the heater 100.

[0074] like Figure 3 As shown, the heater 100 is fixedly connected to the controller 200 via the cover 1, and more specifically, it is fixedly connected to the base plate 3 of the controller 200 via the mounting part 11 of the cover 1.

[0075] Next, continue to refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5 The specific installation method of the heater 100 of the integrated compressor of the present invention relative to the controller 200 will be described.

[0076] like Figure 4 As shown, multiple mounting holes are provided in the mounting part 11 at the position corresponding to the base plate 3, and the mounting part 11 and the base plate 3 are fastened together by fixing bolts.

[0077] In addition, the mounting part 11 of the cover 1 also includes a flange 111. The flange 111 is provided on the outer edge of the cover 1 and protrudes from the cover 1 toward the base plate 3 of the controller 200. The flange 111 is located further outward than the outer edge of the base plate 3, and can form a circumferential or semi-enclosed structure for the base plate 3.

[0078] Ideally, the aforementioned flange 111 is set inwardly towards the bottom plate at the outer edge of the lid 1.

[0079] This design creates an inward-curving protective structure, enhancing the gap-blocking effect and effectively preventing external dust and other impurities from entering the connection area between the heater and the controller. This improves the equipment's environmental adaptability and also enhances the structural strength of the cover. Furthermore, the flange guides the sealant to spread evenly along the gap, filling tiny voids and forming a continuous sealing ring, significantly improving sealing reliability.

[0080] In the actual assembly process, firstly, sealant is evenly injected onto the mating surface of the base plate 3 and the mounting part 11 of the cover 1 using a manual glue gun or automated equipment. The sealant can fully fill the tiny gap between the base plate 3 and the cover 1, thereby effectively ensuring the structural seal.

[0081] Next, the fixing bolts are passed through the mounting holes of the mounting part 11 and the base plate 3 and the two are fastened together. In this way, not only can the connection rigidity between the cover 1 and the base plate 3 be guaranteed, but the pre-tightening force of the bolts can also further compact the sealing layer, which can effectively ensure the structural sealing and finally achieve a stable and sealed assembly of the heater 100 and the controller 200.

[0082] It should be noted that when the lid 1 and the base plate 3 are pressed together, some of the sealant will naturally overflow to the gap between the flange 111 and the base plate 3, forming a double sealing structure of the main seal on the mating surface and the auxiliary seal on the flange side, which can significantly improve the sealing reliability.

[0083] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown in the circular dashed box, during the process of the box cover 1 and the base plate 3 being pressed together, under the action of the bolt preload, the sealant that is squeezed out can spread evenly along the gap between the flange 111 and the base plate 3, fully filling all the tiny gaps in the gap, forming a continuous sealing ring without breaks or bubbles.

[0084] This sealing structure, together with the main sealing layer on the contact surface of the lid 1, forms a double layer of protection:

[0085] On the one hand, the wrap-around design of the 111 flange can provide lateral restraint for the sealant, preventing excessive leakage and effectively ensuring the filling of gaps at the bonding surfaces;

[0086] On the other hand, the cured sealant forms a tight bond with the flange and the edge of the base plate, which can further block the path of impurities such as dust, water stains, moisture, and oil stains from entering the connection gap from the outside.

[0087] Finally, refer to Figure 6A and Figure 6B The specific structure of the heater 100 of the integrated compressor of the present invention will be described.

[0088] like Figure 6AAs shown, the heating tube 2 includes a base 24 and a heating part 25, and is at least partially located within the receiving part 12 of the cover 1.

[0089] The aforementioned substrate 24 is formed as a tubular body of the heating tube 2 and extends along the long side of the heater 100. A heating part 25 is provided on the outer peripheral wall of the substrate 24 and extends along the circumferential direction of the substrate 24.

[0090] Ideally, the substrate 24 is formed as a straight tube extending along the long side of the heater 100.

[0091] With this configuration, the fluid channels inside the substrate 24 are formed into a straight structure without bends, which can minimize the flow resistance of the fluid when it flows in the pipe, avoid energy loss caused by pipe bends, and the straight tubular structure can further improve the space compactness of the heater.

[0092] In addition, the substrate 24 has a heating channel. When the liquid medium to be heated flows into the heating channel through the inlet 21, the liquid medium is heated by the heating part 25 and then flows out through the outlet 22.

[0093] The heating element 25 covers most of the outer peripheral wall of the substrate 24, which can effectively increase the heat exchange area relative to the liquid medium, thereby effectively improving the overall heating efficiency.

[0094] During use, the heating power of the heater 100 can be adjusted by adjusting the diameter of the base 24 or the thickness of the heating part 25 according to actual needs, and the power can be adjusted within the range of 5-7kw.

[0095] Compared to conventional vehicle-mounted flat-plate heaters, the heater 100 of this invention has significant advantages:

[0096] On the one hand, the heating tube has a more compact structure, and the integrated tubular design eliminates the need for additional heat sinks, effectively adapting to the compact space of a vehicle.

[0097] On the other hand, the heating tubes provide more uniform heating. With the heating elements arranged in a circumferential manner, the heat radiation is more uniform, the energy utilization efficiency is greater, and the defects such as overheating in the center and underheating at the edges of the flat plate heater can be eliminated.

[0098] In addition, such as Figure 6A As shown, a terminal 4 is provided in the base 24 at a position where the heating part 25 is not arranged. The base of the terminal 4 is welded to the base 24 and is electrically connected to the heating part 25.

[0099] An inlet temperature sensor 211 is installed near the inlet 21 of the substrate 24, and an outlet temperature sensor 221 is installed near the outlet 22 of the substrate 24. The temperature sensors can monitor the water temperature at the inlet 21 and the outlet 22.

[0100] More specifically, such as Figure 6B As shown, an adapter plate 5 is also installed at the opening of the receiving part 12 of the cover 1. The adapter plate 5 is fixedly connected to the second fixing stud DELZ on the cover 1 by fixing bolts.

[0101] One end of the aforementioned inlet temperature sensor 211 and outlet temperature sensor 221 extends into the substrate 24 to monitor the liquid temperature, and the other end is inserted into the adapter plate 5 and finally connected to the first connector 51.

[0102] One end of the aforementioned terminal 4 is electrically connected to the heating unit 25, and the other end is inserted into the electrical interface of the adapter plate 5, and finally connected to the second connector 52.

[0103] The first connector 51 and the second connector 52 are further connected to the controller 200. The controller 200 supplies power to the temperature sensor through the first connector 51 and acquires the temperature data detected by the temperature sensor. It supplies power to the heating element through the second connector 52 and adjusts the power supply to the heating element based on the acquired temperature data in order to regulate the water temperature.

[0104] By setting up the adapter plate 5, on the one hand, the temperature sensor and the heating unit can be centrally connected, reducing the problem of messy wiring. Its compact installation structure can effectively improve the space utilization rate in the housing. On the other hand, the adapter plate can also provide thermal insulation, which can reduce heat loss in the heating tube and reduce the impact on the controller.

[0105] While the structure and working principle of the present invention have been described above in conjunction with preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should recognize that the above examples are merely illustrative and do not constitute a limitation of the invention. Modifications and variations can be made to the invention within the spirit and scope of the claims, and all such modifications and variations will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
