Description

Technical Field

[0002] With the electrification of construction machinery, electric excavators are widely used in various construction scenarios due to their advantages of low emissions and low noise. As a core component of electric excavators, the cooling system directly affects the operational stability and overall reliability of the electric drive system (motor and controller) and hydraulic system. The electric drive and hydraulic systems generate a large amount of heat during operation. If this heat cannot be dissipated in time, it can lead to problems such as decreased motor efficiency, controller malfunction, and accelerated hydraulic oil oxidation, and in severe cases, cause the entire machine to shut down.

Independent cooling solutions involve separate radiators, fans, and piping for the electric drive system and the hydraulic system, with the two systems operating independently. However, the overall size is large, making it unsuitable for compact layouts. Integrated cooling solutions achieve heat dissipation through a shared fan, simplifying the structure, saving space, and reducing energy consumption.

[0064] In this way, the control module can be based on the second operating temperature. The electronic fan 21 can be selected to operate and its speed can be adjusted. The electronic fan 21 can compensate for the insufficient cooling capacity of the cooling fan 13 under special working conditions and play an auxiliary role in enhancing heat dissipation.

[0065] like Figure 3 As shown, the electric drive cooling module includes an expansion tank 6, which is connected to the second heat dissipation cavity 12, the cooler 2, and the part of the electric drive cooling circuit used to connect the second heat dissipation cavity 12 and the electric water pump.

[0066] In addition, the cooling system has a slow charging mode. When the cooling system is in slow charging mode, the initial speed of the electric water pump is the second preset water pump speed. The electric fan 21 is not working. The control module is able to set the second operating temperature. Compared with the fifth lower limit temperature of water and upper limit of water temperature A comparison is made to control the operation of the electric fan 21 and the electric water pump. Fifth water temperature lower limit temperature. The specific value can be selected based on the needs of the cooling system, the second preset water pump speed. Alternatively, you can select based on your needs, such as the second preset pump speed. satisfy ,For example .

[0067] Specifically, at the second operating temperature Temperature below the fifth lower limit of water temperature At that time, the third rotation speed Equal to the second preset water pump speed Fourth rotation speed Equal to 0; that is, in At that time, the electric fan 21 is not working. .

[0068] Second operating temperature Greater than or equal to the fifth lower limit temperature of water And less than or equal to the upper limit of water temperature. At that time, that is At that time, the third rotation speed satisfy: , The seventh adjustment factor, the fourth speed. satisfy: , This is the eighth adjustment factor. That is to say, in At that time, with the second operating temperature With the increase of [variable name], the speed of both the electric water pump and the electric fan 21 increases linearly. Seventh adjustment coefficient. and the eighth adjustment factor The specific value can be determined based on the demand; the seventh adjustment coefficient. Satisfy: In hour, Eighth adjustment coefficient Satisfy: In hour, .

[0069] Second operating temperature Temperature greater than the upper limit of water temperature At that time, the third rotation speed Equal to the maximum speed of the electric water pump Fourth rotation speed Equal to the maximum speed of electric fan 21 That is, in hour, = , .

[0070] As mentioned above, the cooler 2 can work in slow charging mode, avoiding heat dissipation blind spots and ensuring the temperature stability of components such as the controller 7.

[0071] Thus, this application uses the heat dissipation module 1 to cool the hydraulic and electric drive cooling modules, simplifying the structure of the cooling system. The cooling fan 13 and water pump mechanism 3 are linked and adjusted on both sides, enabling precise matching of the temperature control requirements of the electric drive and hydraulic systems, effectively preventing component aging or failure due to high temperatures. Furthermore, different temperature control strategies are applied to the crushing, digging, and slow charging modes to adapt to the different heat generation characteristics, balancing heat dissipation effectiveness and energy efficiency.

[0072] According to another aspect of this application, an electric excavator is provided that has the same technical effects as the cooling system described above, which will not be repeated here.

[0073] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of the present invention, and not to limit them; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications can still be made to the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments, or equivalent substitutions can be made to some or all of the technical features; and these modifications or substitutions do not cause the essence of the corresponding technical solutions to deviate from the scope of the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention.
