Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicles, in particular to a thermal management system, a suspension system and a vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] The thermal management system mainly includes a refrigerant cycle and a water cooling cycle. In the existing thermal management system, the refrigerant cycle is mainly used for cooling and heating of the passenger compartment and the battery, and the water cooling cycle is mainly used for cooling of components such as the drive motor, the control system and the engine.

[0003] The suspension system is an assembly of all parts connecting the vehicle body and the wheels, and has functions such as supporting the vehicle body, absorbing road impact, improving comfort, adjusting the posture of the vehicle body, improving maneuverability, and ensuring that the wheel jumping has a normal motion track. The suspension system classification includes passive suspension, semi-active suspension and full-active suspension. The elasticity and damping of the passive suspension cannot change with external conditions. The semi-active suspension has no power source, and only the resistance element is controllable. The full-active suspension can replace the damping and elastic elements by using electric control components (power source) according to the motion state of the vehicle, and actively controls the vehicle motion. The above-mentioned vehicle thermal management technology lacks a suspension cooling system, which causes the temperature of the active suspension system to be too high, the performance of the active suspension system is affected, and the service life is reduced.

[0062] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.

[0063] The suspension system, as an assembly connecting all components of the vehicle body and wheels, functions to support the body, absorb road impacts, improve comfort, adjust vehicle posture, enhance handling, and ensure that wheel movements follow a normal trajectory. Suspension systems are classified into passive suspension, semi-active suspension, and fully active suspension. The elasticity and damping of a passive suspension cannot change with external conditions. A semi-active suspension has no power source; only the resistance element is controllable. A fully active suspension can actively control vehicle movement by using electronically controlled components (power source) to replace damping and elastic elements based on the vehicle's motion. The aforementioned vehicle thermal management technologies lack a suspension cooling system, leading to problems such as excessively high temperatures in the active suspension system, affecting suspension performance and reducing its service life.

[0064] In view of this, this application proposes a thermal management system. Figures 1 to 9 This is a schematic diagram of an embodiment of the thermal management system provided in this application. The thermal management system can regulate the temperature of the suspension system, prevent the suspension system from overheating, and improve the performance and service life of the suspension system. The thermal management system will be described in detail below with reference to the main accompanying drawings.

[0065] Example 1

[0066] According to a first aspect of this application, a thermal management system 100 is provided; see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 1 The thermal management system 100 includes a first thermal management system for regulating the temperature of a first component, wherein the first thermal management system is also used to regulate the temperature of the vehicle's suspension system.

[0067] The thermal management system 100 provided in this application can not only cool the first component, but also cool the suspension system, regulate the temperature of the suspension system, prevent the temperature of the suspension system from becoming too high, and improve the performance and service life of the suspension system. Secondly, by cooling the suspension system through the thermal management system 100, there is no need to add a new radiator, which saves costs.

[0068] In this embodiment, the first component includes a powertrain, a powertrain controller assembly, an OBC controller, and other components. Further, the powertrain includes multiple drive motors / engines, and the powertrain controller assembly includes multiple powertrain controllers.

[0069] Please see Figure 1 The thermal management system 100 includes a refrigeration cycle system 20, a main cooling cycle system 10, a converter cooling cycle system 30, and a suspension cooling cycle system 50. The refrigeration cycle system 20 is used for cooling or heating the passenger compartment and can also cool the vehicle's battery pack. The main cooling cycle system 10 is used for cooling the powertrain. The converter cooling cycle system 30 is used for cooling the DC and IDC converters. The suspension cycle system is used for cooling the suspension system. In this embodiment, the suspension system includes suspension components and a suspension controller. The suspension component cooling parts and the suspension controller cooling parts 12 are located in the main cooling cycle system 10, and the main cooling cycle system 10 cools the suspension system (i.e., the main cooling cycle system 10 includes the suspension cooling cycle system 50).

[0070] For more details, please continue reading. Figure 1 The main cooling circulation system 10 includes a first main circulation path 1, which includes a power cooling component 11 and a suspension controller cooling component 12. The power cooling component 11 is used to cool the powertrain, and the suspension controller cooling component 12 is used to cool the suspension controller. In this embodiment, the powertrain includes a front powertrain and a rear powertrain, and the suspension controller includes a first suspension controller and a second suspension controller. The power cooling component 11 includes a first power cooling section and a second power cooling section. The first power cooling section is used to cool the front powertrain, and the second power cooling section is used to cool the rear powertrain. The suspension controller cooling component 12 includes a first suspension controller cooling component 12 and a second suspension controller cooling component 12. The first suspension controller cooling component 12 is used to cool the first suspension controller, and the second suspension controller cooling component 12 is used to cool the second suspension controller. Cooling multiple components separately improves cooling efficiency.

[0071] Please continue reading. Figure 1The main cooling circulation system 10 also includes a suspension cooling component 13, which is used to cool the suspension assembly. In this embodiment, the suspension assembly includes a front suspension and a rear suspension, and the suspension cooling section includes a front suspension cooling section and a rear suspension cooling section. The front suspension cooling section is used to cool the front suspension, and the rear suspension cooling section is used to cool the rear suspension, so that the suspension assembly as a whole is in a temperature equilibrium state, which meets the flow-pressure drop matching requirements of the whole vehicle, and is also convenient for layout.

[0072] It should be noted that the connection method of the suspension controller cooling component 12, suspension cooling component 13, and power cooling component 11 is not limited, and can be selected according to the actual layout of the vehicle; for example, the suspension controller cooling component 12, suspension cooling component 13, and power cooling component 11 can be connected in series in the first loop main path 1. The suspension controller cooling component 12, suspension cooling component 13, and power cooling component 11 can also be connected in parallel in the first loop main path 1. The selection can be made according to the actual situation.

[0073] In some embodiments, the suspension controller cooling component 12, the suspension cooling component 13, and the power cooling component 11 are provided in multiples. The first circulation main road 1 includes two first circulation branches a arranged in parallel. In the circulation direction of the main cooling circulation system 10, each first circulation branch a includes the suspension controller cooling component 12, the suspension cooling component 13, and the power cooling component 11 connected in series.

[0074] In some embodiments, when the cooling pressure of the thermal management system 100 is low, the suspension controller cooling component 12, the suspension cooling component 13, and the power cooling component 11 are arranged sequentially in the circulation direction of the main cooling circulation system 10. The suspension controller cooling component 12, the suspension cooling component 13, and the power cooling component 11 are connected in series to meet the cooling requirements.

[0075] In some other embodiments, the main cooling circulation system 10 further includes two first circulation branch mains 151, which are arranged in parallel and connected to the first circulation main 1. Specifically, the first suspension controller cooling component 12, the front suspension cooling component 13 and the front powertrain cooling component are connected in series on one of the first circulation branch mains 151, and the second suspension controller cooling component 12, the rear suspension cooling component 13 and the rear powertrain cooling component are connected in series on the other first circulation branch main 151.

[0076] Furthermore, the arrangement order of the first suspension controller cooling component 12, the front suspension cooling component 13, and the front powertrain cooling component is not limited and can be selected according to actual conditions. In this embodiment, the suspension controller assembly is relatively sensitive to temperature and needs to be at a suitable temperature to work properly. Prolonged exposure to high temperatures can easily damage the suspension controller assembly. To avoid this situation, the first suspension controller cooling component 12 is placed before the front suspension cooling component 13 and the front powertrain cooling component. In this way, during the cycle, the first suspension controller cooling component 12 is cooled first, keeping it at a suitable temperature and improving its service life. It should be noted that the arrangement of the second suspension controller cooling component 12, the rear suspension cooling component 13, and the rear powertrain cooling component is the same as that of the first suspension controller cooling component 12, the front suspension cooling component 13, and the front powertrain cooling component, and will not be described in detail here.

[0077] Please continue reading. Figure 1 The main cooling circulation system 10 also includes a first water pump 14, which is used to regulate pressure. The first water pump 14 is located at the outlet of the first main circulation path 1. The main cooling circulation system 10 also includes a second main circulation path 15. One end of the second main circulation path 15 is connected to the outlet of the first main circulation path 1 via the first water pump 14, and the other end of the second main circulation path 15 is connected to the inlet of the first main circulation path 1. The first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 are connected to form a complete cooling circulation loop. Furthermore, the second main circulation path 15 is connected to the refrigeration circulation system 20 via a first heat exchanger 16 to exchange heat with the refrigeration circulation system 20. When the vehicle's heat pump function is activated, heat exchange can occur between the refrigeration circulation system 20 and the main cooling circulation system 10, using the heat from the main cooling circulation system 10 to heat the passenger compartment. This configuration rationally utilizes energy, improves energy efficiency, and saves resources.

[0078] Furthermore, the second loop main road 15 includes a first loop branch main road 151, a second loop branch main road 152 and a third loop branch main road 153, with the three branches used in three different environmental conditions.

[0079] In some embodiments, when the vehicle is in normal cooling condition, one end of the first circulation branch main road 151 is connected to the outlet of the first circulation main road 1, and the other end of the first circulation branch main road 151 is connected to the inlet of the first circulation main road 1. A first radiator assembly 1511 is provided on the first circulation branch main road 151, and heat is dissipated through the first radiator assembly 1511 to complete the cooling cycle. Specifically, the cooling method of the main cooling cycle system 10 is as follows: the cooling medium flows out from the first radiator assembly 1511, cools the suspension controller assembly, suspension assembly, and powertrain in sequence, and then flows into the first water pump 14. After being pressurized by the first water pump 14, it flows into the first circulation branch main road 151, and then into the first radiator assembly 1511. After being dissipated by the first radiator assembly 1511, it flows into the first circulation main road 1, thereby completing the cooling cycle.

[0080] In some embodiments, when the heat pump function is activated, one end of the second circulation branch main line 152 is connected to the outlet of the first circulation branch main line 1, and the other end of the second circulation branch main line 152 is connected to the first circulation branch main line 151 via a first connecting node 1521. In the circulation direction of the main cooling circulation system 10, the first connecting node 1521 is located after the first radiator assembly 1511, and the first heat exchanger 16 is located in the second circulation branch main line 152. The first heat exchanger 16 cools the second circulation branch main line 152, thereby reducing the cooling pressure of the main cooling circulation system 10. The second circulation branch is also provided with a first connector 1531, which is located after the first heat exchanger 16. The second circulation branch also includes a second circulation sub-branch, one end of which is connected to the first connector 1531, and the other end is connected to the first circulation branch main line 151 via the first connecting node 1521. More specifically, the cooling medium flows directly from the first connector 1531 into the second connector node 1532, sequentially cooling the suspension controller assembly, suspension assembly, and powertrain before flowing into the first water pump 14. After being pressurized by the first water pump 14, it flows into the second circulation branch main line 152. The second circulation branch main line 152 is equipped with a first heat exchanger 16, which cools the cooling medium, reducing its temperature. Subsequently, it flows into the first connector 1531, and then into the second water circulation sub-branch through the first connector 1531. The second water circulation sub-branch is then connected to the first circulation branch main line 151 through the first connector node 1521. Since the first connector node 1521 is located at the first radiator assembly 1511, the cooling medium will no longer pass through the first radiator assembly 1511 and will directly enter the first circulation main line 1, thus completing the cooling cycle. This configuration, with the first heat exchanger 16 connected to the refrigeration cycle system 20, effectively utilizes the refrigeration cycle system 20 for auxiliary heat dissipation, while using the heat from the main cooling cycle system 10 to heat the passenger compartment. This configuration optimizes energy use, improves energy efficiency, and conserves resources.

[0081] In some embodiments, the cooling cycle is performed simultaneously by the first heat exchanger 16 and the first radiator assembly 1511. The second main circulation path 15 also includes a third main circulation path 153. One end of the third main circulation path 153 is connected to the second main circulation path 152 via a first connector 1531, and the other end of the third main circulation path 153 is connected to the first main circulation path 151 via a second connection node 1532. In the circulation direction of the main cooling circulation system 10, the first connector 1531 is located after the first heat exchanger 16, and the second connection node 1532 is located before the first radiator assembly 1511. More specifically, the cooling medium flows out from the first radiator assembly 1511, sequentially cooling the suspension controller assembly, suspension assembly, and powertrain before flowing into the first water pump 14. After being pressurized by the first water pump 14, it flows into the second circulation branch main line 152. The second circulation branch main line 152 is equipped with a first heat exchanger 16, which cools the cooling medium, reducing its temperature. Subsequently, it flows into the first connector 1531, then into the third circulation branch main line 153, and then into the first circulation branch main line 151 through the second connecting node 1532. Finally, it flows into the first radiator assembly 1511, where it dissipates heat before flowing back into the first circulation main line 1, thus completing the cooling cycle.

[0082] In this embodiment, both the first connecting node 1521 and the second connecting node 1532 are three-way valves.

[0083] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 The main cooling cycle system 10 is connected to the refrigeration cycle system 20 via a first heat exchanger 16. The refrigeration cycle system 20 includes a compressor 203, a condenser 201, and an expansion valve 204 connected in sequence. More specifically, the first heat exchanger 16 is connected between the compressor 203 and the expansion valve 204 to convert the refrigerant from a liquid state to a gaseous state through the expansion valve 204, providing refrigeration temperature and cooling capacity. The working principle of the refrigeration cycle system 20 is as follows: after the refrigerant is pressurized by the compressor 203, it releases heat in the condenser 201, then flows through the expansion valve 204 to reduce pressure and temperature, and then flows through the first heat exchanger 16 into the first circulation branch a, absorbing the heat generated in the first circulation branch a, and finally flows into the compressor 203 to complete the refrigeration cycle. In this cycle, the suspension cooling cycle system 50 and the first heat exchanger 16 act as evaporators.

[0084] In addition, the refrigeration cycle system 20 also includes an integrated module 202. One end of the integrated module 202 is connected between the compressor 203 and the first heat exchanger 16, and the other end is connected between the condenser 201 and the expansion valve 204. The specific configuration of the integrated module 202 can be referred to the configuration in the field.

[0085] Please continue reading. Figure 1 The converter cooling circulation system 30 is independent of the main cooling circulation system 10 and the refrigeration circulation system 20. The converter cooling circulation system 30 includes a first main circulation path. In the circulation direction of the converter cooling circulation system 30, a second radiator assembly 303, a DC cooling component 301, a second water pump 304, and an IDC cooling component 302 are arranged sequentially. The working principle and cooling circulation path of the converter cooling circulation system 30 can be referred to conventional settings in the field, and will not be described in detail here.

[0086] According to a second aspect of this application, a suspension system is provided for heat exchange with a first thermal management system in the aforementioned thermal management system 100.

[0087] In some embodiments, the suspension system includes an actuator adapted to connect the vehicle body and wheels, and further, the suspension cooling circulation system 50 of the first thermal management system is also used to cool the actuator.

[0088] It should be noted that the cooling method for the actuator is not limited, as long as cooling is achieved. In some embodiments, the suspension cooling circulation system 50 further includes an actuator cooling section 56 for cooling the actuator. This configuration uses a separate cooling section to cool the actuator, improving cooling efficiency. In other embodiments, the suspension cooling circulation system 50 includes a suspension cooling section 13 connected to the actuator for cooling. This configuration saves space, as the actuator is cooled by the suspension cooling section 13 without the need for additional cooling sections.

[0089] It should be noted that the specific type of the actuator is not limited; the actuator can be a linear motor suspension, a hydraulic suspension, or an air suspension. In this embodiment, the actuator is a linear motor suspension. Temperature is one of the important factors restricting motor performance. When the temperature is too high, it will affect the output and thrust duration of the linear motor, leading to increased energy consumption and reduced linear motor performance. In addition, when the temperature is too high, it will cause the copper loss of the linear motor to increase. Cooling the linear motor through the suspension cooling circulation system keeps the linear motor at a suitable operating temperature, enabling the linear motor to maintain high working efficiency. When the temperature is too high, it will also accelerate the aging of the insulation components of the linear motor, causing the insulation withstand voltage failure, resulting in leakage or even damage and burning of the linear motor. At the same time, when the temperature is too high, it will also cause the permanent magnet of the linear motor to demagnetize, reducing the performance of the linear motor, affecting the mechanical properties of the linear motor, and reducing the reliability and service life of the linear motor. At a suitable operating temperature, the thrust of the linear motor in the suspension system increases, which can improve the suspension's actuation capability under peak conditions.

[0093] The vehicle can be a gasoline-powered vehicle, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, or a new energy vehicle, etc., and this application does not specifically limit it. The powertrain is not limited to a drive motor, engine, or other automotive power source.

The configuration of the refrigeration cycle system 20 and the converter cooling cycle system can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0099] In some embodiments, the suspension system includes a suspension assembly and a suspension controller. When the vehicle is traveling on a smooth road and the amount of movement of the suspension system is small, the suspension system generates less heat. Considering cost savings, the suspension controller cooling component 12 is located in the main cooling circulation system 10, and the suspension controller is cooled by the main cooling circulation system 10.

[0100] For more details, please continue reading. Figure 2 The main cooling circulation system 10 includes a first main circulation path 1, a second main circulation path 15, and a first water pump 14. The first water pump 14 is used to regulate pressure and is located at the outlet of the first main circulation path 1. One end of the second main circulation path 15 is connected to the outlet of the first main circulation path 1 via the first water pump 14, and the other end of the second main circulation path 15 is connected to the inlet of the first main circulation path 1. The first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 are connected to form a complete cooling circulation loop. The configuration of the second main circulation path 15 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0101] Please continue reading. Figure 2 To alleviate the pressure on the main cooling circulation system 10, the first circulation main path 1 is configured to be diverted. Specifically, the first circulation main path 1 includes at least one first circulation sub-branch 401, a suspension circulation branch 402, and a first valve 403. The suspension circulation branch 402 is used to cool the suspension assembly. The first circulation sub-branch 401 is provided with a suspension controller cooling component 12 and a power cooling component 11. The suspension controller cooling component 12 is used to cool the suspension controller, and the power cooling component 11 is used to cool the powertrain. The configuration of the suspension controller cooling component 12 and the power cooling component 11 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0102] For further information, please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 2The first valve 403 is connected to one end of the second main circulation path 15, the suspension circulation branch path 402, the first main circulation branch path 151, and the other end of the suspension circulation branch path 402. The first valve 403 is configured to control the suspension circulation branch path 402 to connect to the first main circulation branch path 151 and the second main circulation path 15, or to disconnect it from the first main circulation branch path 151 and the second main circulation path 15. In this embodiment, the first valve 403 is a four-way valve, which includes a first valve section, a second valve section, a third valve section, and a fourth valve section facing four different directions. The first valve section is connected to the outlet end of the second main circulation path 15, the second valve section is connected to the inlet end of the first sub-branch path 401, the third valve section is connected to the inlet end of the suspension circulation path, and the fourth valve section is connected to the outlet end of the suspension circulation path. When the cooling medium flows from the second main circulation path 15 into the first valve 403, it will be split. Part of it flows into the first circulation sub-branch 401 through the first valve 403, and the other part flows into the suspension circulation branch 402 through the first valve 403. The first valve 403 is used to split the flow, make reasonable use of space, and improve cooling efficiency.

[0103] Furthermore, the suspension circulation branch 402 includes a suspension cooling component 13 and a third water pump 404. The suspension cooling component 13 is located between the inlet of the third water pump 404 and the third valve section, and the outlet of the third water pump 404 is connected to the fourth valve section.

[0104] More specifically, there are multiple suspension cooling components 13, and the connection method of the multiple suspension cooling components 13 is not limited, and can be selected according to the actual situation.

[0105] In some embodiments, please refer to Figure 7 Multiple suspension cooling components 13 are arranged in series. See also some other embodiments. Figure 8 Multiple suspension cooling components 13 are arranged in parallel. In some other embodiments, please refer to...

[0106] According to a second aspect of this application, a suspension system is provided. The configuration of the suspension system can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0107] According to a third aspect of this application, a vehicle is provided.

[0109] In other embodiments, the vehicle includes the aforementioned suspension system, which has all the advantages of the upper suspension system, and will not be described further herein.

[0110] The advantage of this embodiment is that when the heat generation of the suspension system is low, the cooling of the powertrain and the suspension system do not affect each other, and the suspension system can maintain a low temperature, preventing a situation where the suspension system temperature is high due to a high powertrain efficiency. When the heat generation of the suspension system is high, the radiator can effectively release heat, avoiding overheating of the circuit.

[0111] The vehicle may be a gasoline-powered vehicle, a plug-in hybrid electric vehicle, or a new energy vehicle, etc., and this disclosure does not make any specific restrictions.

[0112] Example 3

[0113] According to a first aspect of this application, a thermal management system 100 is provided; see [link to relevant documentation]. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The thermal management system 100 includes a first thermal management system for regulating the temperature of a first component, wherein the first thermal management system is also used to regulate the temperature of the vehicle's suspension system.

[0114] The thermal management system 100 provided in this application can not only cool the first component, but also cool the suspension system, regulate the temperature of the suspension system, prevent the temperature of the suspension system from becoming too high, reduce the wear of the suspension system, and improve the service life of the suspension system; secondly, by cooling the suspension system through the thermal management system 100, there is no need to add a new radiator, thus saving costs.

[0115] In this embodiment, the first component includes a powertrain, a powertrain controller assembly, an OBC controller, and other components. Further, the powertrain includes multiple drive motors / engines, and the powertrain controller assembly includes multiple powertrain controllers.

[0116] Please see Figure 3 The thermal management system 100 includes a refrigeration cycle system 20, a main cooling cycle system 10, a converter cooling cycle system 30, and a suspension cooling cycle system 50. The refrigeration cycle system 20 is used for cooling or heating the passenger compartment and cooling the battery pack. The main cooling cycle system 10 is used for cooling the powertrain. The converter cooling cycle system 30 is used for cooling the DC and IDC circuits. The suspension cycle system is used for cooling the suspension system. The configuration of the refrigeration cycle system 20 and the converter cooling cycle system 30 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0117] In some embodiments, the suspension system includes a suspension assembly and a suspension controller. The suspension controller generates less heat but requires continuous cooling. Therefore, the suspension controller cooling component 12 can be located in the main cooling circulation system 10 to cool the suspension controller.

[0118] Please continue reading. Figure 3 The main cooling circulation system 10 includes a first main circulation path 1, a second main circulation path 15, and a first water pump 14. The first water pump 14 is used to regulate pressure and is located at the outlet of the first main circulation path 1. One end of the second main circulation path 15 is connected to the outlet of the first main circulation path 1 via the first water pump 14, and the other end of the second main circulation path is connected to the inlet of the first main circulation path 1. The first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 are connected to form a complete cooling circulation loop. The arrangement of the first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0119] Please see Figure 4 The thermal management system 100 also includes a suspension cooling circulation system 50, which is independent of the first thermal management system. The suspension cooling circulation system 50 is used to regulate the temperature of the suspension components. Specifically, the suspension cooling system includes a first suspension cooling branch 501. In the circulation direction of the first suspension cooling branch 501, a third radiator assembly 5011, a suspension cooling component 13, and a fourth water pump 5012 are sequentially arranged. More specifically, the cooling medium flows out from the third radiator assembly 5011, flows through the fourth water pump 5012, is pressurized by the fourth water pump 5012, flows through the suspension cooling component 13 to cool it, and then flows back into the third radiator assembly 5011 to complete the cooling cycle. By using a suspension cooling circulation system 50 independent of the first thermal management system to cool the suspension components, the suspension cooling circulation system 50 is completely separate from the main cooling circulation system 10, and they do not affect each other, avoiding a situation where excessive power in one component leads to excessively high water temperature, causing other components to overheat. When the suspension system generates relatively little heat under all operating conditions, or when the system's heat capacity can be maintained for a long time without the third radiator assembly 5011, the third radiator assembly 5011 can be removed, and the heat can be transferred to the environment by using water pipes for heat dissipation and air cooling of the suspension's own shell.

[0120] More specifically, there are multiple suspension cooling components 13. The connection method of the multiple suspension cooling components 13 can be referred to in Embodiment 2, and will not be described in detail here.

[0124] In other embodiments, the vehicle includes the aforementioned suspension system, which has all the advantages of the upper suspension system, and will not be described further herein.

[0127] The thermal management system 100 provided in this application can not only cool the first component, but also cool the suspension system, regulate the temperature of the suspension system, prevent the temperature of the suspension system from becoming too high, and improve the performance and service life of the suspension system. Secondly, by cooling the suspension system through the thermal management system 100, there is no need to add a new radiator, which saves costs.

[0128] In this embodiment, the first component includes a powertrain, a powertrain controller assembly, an OBC controller, and other components. Further, the powertrain includes multiple drive motors / engines, and the powertrain controller assembly includes multiple powertrain controllers.

[0129] Please see Figure 3 The thermal management system 100 includes a refrigeration cycle system 20 and a main cooling cycle system 10. The refrigeration cycle system 20 is used for cooling or heating the passenger compartment and cooling the battery pack. The main cooling cycle system 10 is used for cooling the powertrain. The configuration of the refrigeration cycle system 20 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0130] In some embodiments, the suspension system includes a suspension assembly and a suspension controller, with the suspension controller cooling component 12 disposed in the main cooling circulation system 10, and the suspension controller being cooled by the main cooling circulation system 10.

[0131] Please continue reading. Figure 3The main cooling circulation system 10 includes a first main circulation path 1, a second main circulation path 15, and a first water pump 14.

The first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 are connected to form a complete cooling circulation loop. The arrangement of the first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0132] Please see Figure 5 The thermal management system 100 also includes a second cooling circulation system 60, which is used to regulate the temperature of the converter assembly and the suspension assembly. Specifically, the second cooling circulation system 60 includes a third water-cooled main circulation path 601, in which a fourth radiator assembly 6011, a fifth water pump 6012, an IDC cooling component 302, a DC cooling component 301, and a suspension cooling component 13 are sequentially arranged. More specifically, the cooling medium flows out from the fourth radiator assembly 6011, is pressurized by the fifth water pump 6012, flows sequentially through the IDC cooling component 302, the DC cooling component 301, and the suspension cooling component 13, and then flows back into the fourth radiator assembly 6011 to complete the cooling cycle.

[0137] In other embodiments, the vehicle includes the aforementioned suspension system, which has all the advantages of the upper suspension system, and will not be described further herein.

[0138] Example 5

[0140] The thermal management system 100 provided in this application can not only cool the first component, but also cool the suspension system, regulate the temperature of the suspension system, prevent the temperature of the suspension system from becoming too high, and improve the performance and service life of the suspension system. Secondly, by cooling the suspension system through the thermal management system 100, there is no need to add a new radiator, which saves costs.

[0141] In this embodiment, the first component includes a powertrain, a power controller assembly, an OBC controller, and other components. Further, the powertrain includes multiple drive motors, and the power controller assembly includes multiple drive motor controllers.

[0142] Please continue reading. Figure 6 The thermal management system 100 includes a refrigeration cycle system 20, a main cooling cycle system 10, a converter cooling cycle system 30, and a suspension cooling cycle system 50. The refrigeration cycle system 20 is used for cooling or heating the passenger compartment and cooling the battery pack. The main cooling cycle system 10 is used for cooling the powertrain. The converter cooling cycle system 30 is used for cooling the DC and IDC circuits. The suspension cycle system is used for cooling the suspension system. The configuration of the refrigeration cycle system 20 and the converter cooling cycle system 30 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0143] In some embodiments, the suspension system includes a suspension assembly and a suspension controller, with the suspension controller cooling component 12 disposed in the main cooling circulation system 10, and the suspension controller being cooled by the main cooling circulation system 10.

[0144] Please continue reading. Figure 3 The main cooling circulation system 10 includes a first main circulation path 1, a second main circulation path 15, and a first water pump 14. The first water pump 14 is used to regulate pressure and is located at the outlet of the first main circulation path 1. One end of the second main circulation path 15 is connected to the outlet of the first main circulation path 1 via the first water pump 14, and the other end of the second main circulation path is connected to the inlet of the first main circulation path 1. The first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 are connected to form a complete cooling circulation loop. The arrangement of the first main circulation path 1 and the second main circulation path 15 can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.

[0145] Please continue reading. Figure 6 The difference from Embodiment 3 is that a second heat exchanger 701 is added to the suspension cooling circulation system 50, which is configured to recover heat from the refrigeration circulation system 20. Its working process is as follows:

[0146] The thermal management system 100 also includes a first connecting branch 502, which connects the refrigeration cycle system 20 and the second heat exchanger 701. A connecting valve b is provided on the first connecting branch 502, which is used to connect or disconnect the suspension cooling cycle system 50 and the refrigeration cycle system 20.

[0147] When the thermal management system 100 is in normal heat dissipation mode, the connecting valve b is closed, and the refrigeration cycle system 20 is disconnected from the suspension cooling cycle system 50. The suspension cooling cycle system 50 relies on its own fifth radiator assembly 702 for heat dissipation. Specifically, the suspension cooling cycle system 50 includes a second suspension cooling branch 70. In the circulation direction of the second suspension cooling branch 70, the fifth radiator assembly 702, the suspension cooling component 13, and the sixth water pump 703 are arranged sequentially. The second heat exchanger 701 is located between the sixth water pump 703 and the suspension cooling component 13. More specifically, the cooling medium flows out from the fifth radiator assembly 702, flows through the sixth water pump 703, is pressurized by the sixth water pump 703, then passes through the second heat exchanger 701, flows through the suspension cooling component 13 to cool the suspension cooling component 13, and then flows back into the fifth radiator assembly 702 to complete the cooling cycle.

[0148] When the heat pump function is activated in winter, the connecting valve b opens, connecting the refrigeration cycle system 20 to the suspension cooling cycle system 50. The heat from the suspension cooling cycle system 50 is released to the refrigeration cycle system 20 via the second heat exchanger 701, assisting the refrigeration cycle system 20 in heating and thus providing heating for the passenger compartment. Specifically, the cooling medium flows through the sixth water pump 703, is pressurized, then passes through the second heat exchanger 701 (which absorbs heat from the cooling medium, thereby reducing its temperature), flows through the suspension cooling component 13 to cool it, enters the second connecting member 705, and flows from the suspension cooling sub-branch 704 into the sixth water pump 703, thus completing the circulation.

[0149] More specifically, there are multiple suspension cooling components 13. The connection method of the multiple suspension cooling components 13 can be referred to in Embodiment 2, and will not be described in detail here.

[0150] According to a second aspect of this application, a suspension system is provided. The configuration of the suspension system can be referred to in Embodiment 1, and will not be described in detail here.
