Detailed Implementation

[0020] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0021] The following is for reference. Figures 1-3 A vehicle 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: Body 10, body 10 defines the front engine compartment space 11; The engine compartment storage box 20 and the temperature control integrated module 30 are installed in the front engine compartment space 11, and along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the temperature control integrated module 30 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20.

[0022] In the traditional layout scheme, the temperature control integrated module 30 is generally placed at a higher position in the front cabin space 11, usually near the tower base, occupying the rear space of the cabin storage box 20 in the horizontal direction. This results in the rear end face of the cabin storage box 20 not being able to extend backward, which greatly wastes the space in the front cabin space 11, and consequently results in a smaller capacity of the cabin storage box 20. However, in the solution of this invention, the temperature control integrated module 30 is positioned below the engine compartment storage box 20 along the height direction of the vehicle 100. This fully utilizes the space below the engine compartment storage box 20, achieving a compact layout and freeing up space behind the engine compartment storage box 20. This allows the rear end of the engine compartment storage box 20 to extend rearward, increasing its volume and improving its practicality. It also lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, enhancing the vehicle 100's handling stability. Furthermore, positioning the temperature control integrated module 30 below the engine compartment storage box 20, closer to the natural ventilation area or air conditioning duct at the bottom of the driver's compartment, facilitates heat dissipation. Additionally, it allows maintenance personnel to directly maintain the temperature control integrated module 30 from below, potentially without disassembling the engine compartment storage box 20, significantly reducing maintenance time and complexity. It also reduces the risk of intrusion into the temperature control integrated module 30 during a frontal collision.

[0023] Furthermore, the cabin storage box 20 can be constructed as a tipping bucket structure, similar to the bucket or scoop of an excavator, with a narrow bottom, wide opening, and angled sides. This design allows users to quickly retrieve and place items, and the angled sides reduce blind spots, making it easier for users to see the items inside the cabin storage box 20 without straining to look. The tipping bucket shape also better fits the complex curved or angled structures inside the forward cabin space 11, converting hard-to-use corner spaces into effective storage capacity. The square-shaped temperature control integrated module 30 facilitates modular design and improves the utilization rate of the interior space of the forward cabin space 11. The temperature control integrated module 30 integrates a water pump, battery cooler, heat exchanger, etc.

[0024] According to an embodiment of the present invention, by placing the temperature control integrated module 30 below the engine compartment storage box 20, the vehicle 100 can free up the space behind the engine compartment storage box 20, allowing the rear end face of the engine compartment storage box 20 to extend rearward, increasing the volume of the engine compartment storage box 20, and at the same time lowering the center of gravity of the vehicle, thereby improving the handling stability of the vehicle 100.

[0025] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the vehicle 100 also includes: a first fixed crossbeam 21, which is located in the front engine compartment space 11. The body 10 includes a front longitudinal beam 12. Along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the first fixed crossbeam 21 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the front longitudinal beam 12. The temperature control integrated module 30 and the engine compartment storage box 20 are both fixed to the first fixed crossbeam 21.

[0026] The first fixed crossbeam 21 is located in the front engine compartment space 11. The vehicle body 10 includes a front longitudinal beam 12. Along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the first fixed crossbeam 21 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the front longitudinal beam 12. In some embodiments of the present invention, the first fixed crossbeam 21 and the front longitudinal beam 12 can be fixedly connected by welding, or the first fixed crossbeam 21 and the front longitudinal beam 12 can be fixedly connected by bolts. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The first fixed crossbeam 21 and the front longitudinal beam 12 can also be fixedly connected by other means, as long as the first fixed crossbeam 21 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the front longitudinal beam 12.

[0027] As a specific embodiment of the present invention, the left and right sides of the first fixed crossbeam 21 are fixedly connected to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body by welding brackets. Welding is a processing method that uses heating or pressure to make the weldment atomically bonded. The resulting weld has extremely high strength, which is beneficial to improving the connection strength between the first fixed crossbeam 21 and the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body. This allows the connection between the first fixed crossbeam 21 and the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body to withstand various forces and vibrations generated by the vehicle 100 during driving, ensuring the stability and safety of the vehicle 100 structure.

[0028] Furthermore, the first fixed crossbeam 21 can be constructed as a square tube beam. The closed section design of the square tube beam makes its bending stiffness (section modulus) significantly higher than that of an open section (such as an H-beam). Especially in bidirectional load scenarios (such as simultaneously bearing vertical and horizontal loads), it can distribute stress more evenly and reduce local deformation. The square tube beam has good cross-sectional symmetry and is not prone to local buckling under compression, thus effectively improving the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0029] Both the temperature control integrated module 30 and the engine compartment storage box 20 are fixed to the first fixed crossbeam 21. As a specific embodiment of the present invention, both the temperature control integrated module 30 and the engine compartment storage box 20 are fixed to the first fixed crossbeam 21 by bolts. This arrangement allows both the temperature control integrated module 30 and the engine compartment storage box 20 to be detachably connected to the first fixed crossbeam 21, which is beneficial for the later maintenance and replacement of the temperature control integrated module 30 and the engine compartment storage box 20, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of the vehicle 100.

[0030] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the lower end of the temperature control integrated module 30 is lower than the lower end of the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body.

[0031] The temperature control integrated module 30 typically requires good airflow to dissipate heat. When its lower end is lower than the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body, it can more effectively utilize the airflow generated when the vehicle 100 is in motion, allowing air to flow more smoothly over the surface of the temperature control integrated module 30. This increases the cooling contact area of ​​the temperature control integrated module 30, thereby enhancing its heat dissipation effect. It also further lowers the vehicle's center of gravity, further improving the vehicle 100's handling stability. Furthermore, the lower position makes the temperature control integrated module 30 easier to access and inspect, reducing maintenance difficulty and costs.

[0032] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle 100 also includes a heater 40, which is located in the front engine compartment space 11. Along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the heater 40 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the first fixed crossbeam 21.

[0033] The heater 40 is a water heater and can be constructed in an "L" or similar "L" shape. Along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the heater 40 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the first fixed crossbeam 21. In some embodiments of the present invention, the heater 40 and the first fixed crossbeam 21 can be fixedly connected by welding, or the heater 40 and the first fixed crossbeam 21 can be fixedly connected by bolts. However, the present invention is not limited to these methods. The heater 40 and the first fixed crossbeam 21 can also be fixedly connected by other methods, as long as the heater 40 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the first fixed crossbeam 21.

[0034] By placing the heater 40 below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixing it to the first fixed crossbeam 21, the space behind the engine compartment storage box 20 can be freed up, allowing the rear end face of the engine compartment storage box 20 to extend backward, increasing the volume of the engine compartment storage box 20, while also lowering the center of gravity of the vehicle and improving the handling stability of the vehicle 100.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the temperature control integrated module 30 and heater 40 are arranged along the left and right directions of the vehicle 100, which can significantly improve the uniformity of temperature regulation inside the vehicle, optimize space utilization, enhance system redundancy and reliability, and improve maintenance convenience. It can also make more effective use of the space inside the vehicle 100, help reduce interference between equipment, improve space utilization, and provide more space for the engine compartment storage box 20.

[0036] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the vehicle 100 also includes: a second fixed crossbeam 22, which is located in the front engine compartment space 11. Along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the second fixed crossbeam 22 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body. Along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the second fixed crossbeam 22 is located in front of the first fixed crossbeam 21. The engine compartment storage box 20 is fixed to the second fixed crossbeam 22.

[0037] The second fixed crossbeam 22 is located in the front engine compartment space 11 along the height direction of the vehicle 100. The second fixed crossbeam 22 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body. In some embodiments of the present invention, the second fixed crossbeam 22 and the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body can be fixedly connected by welding, or the second fixed crossbeam 22 and the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body can be fixedly connected by bolts. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The second fixed crossbeam 22 and the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body can also be fixedly connected by other means, as long as the second fixed crossbeam 22 is located below the engine compartment storage box 20 and fixed to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body.

[0038] As a specific embodiment of the present invention, the left and right sides of the second fixed crossbeam 22 are fixedly connected to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body by welding brackets. Welding is a processing method that uses heating or pressure to make the weldment atomically bonded. The resulting weld has extremely high strength, which is beneficial to improving the connection strength between the second fixed crossbeam 22 and the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body. This allows the connection between the second fixed crossbeam 22 and the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body to withstand various forces and vibrations generated by the vehicle 100 during driving, ensuring the stability and safety of the vehicle 100 structure.

[0039] Furthermore, the first fixed crossbeam 21 can be constructed as a square tube beam. The closed section design of the square tube beam makes its bending stiffness (section modulus) significantly higher than that of an open section (such as an H-beam). Especially in bidirectional load scenarios (such as simultaneously bearing vertical and horizontal loads), it can distribute stress more evenly and reduce local deformation. The square tube beam has good cross-sectional symmetry and is not prone to local buckling under compression, thus effectively improving the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0040] Along the height direction of the vehicle 100, the second fixed crossbeam 22 is located in front of the first fixed crossbeam 21, and the engine compartment storage box 20 is fixed to the second fixed crossbeam 22. With this arrangement, the second fixed crossbeam 22 and the first fixed crossbeam 21 can form multi-point support to stably support the engine compartment storage box 20. Both the second fixed crossbeam 22 and the first fixed crossbeam 21 are constructed as square tube beam structures, which can reduce weight while ensuring strength, which is beneficial to the lightweight design of the vehicle 100.

[0041] The cabin storage box 20 is fixed to the second fixed crossbeam 22. In some embodiments of the present invention, the cabin storage box 20 and the second fixed crossbeam 22 can be fixedly connected by welding, or the cabin storage box 20 and the second fixed crossbeam 22 can be fixedly connected by bolts. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The cabin storage box 20 and the second fixed crossbeam 22 can also be fixedly connected by other means, as long as the cabin storage box 20 is fixed to the second fixed crossbeam 22.

[0042] As a specific embodiment of the present invention, the engine compartment storage box 20 is fixed to the second fixed crossbeam 22 by bolts. This arrangement allows both the engine compartment storage box 20 and the second fixed crossbeam 22 to be detachably connected, which is beneficial for the later maintenance and replacement of the engine compartment storage box 20, thereby reducing the maintenance cost of the vehicle 100.

[0043] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle 100 further includes: a front heat dissipation module 50, which is disposed in the front engine compartment space 11, fixed to the vehicle body 10, located in the front direction of the vehicle 100, in front of the engine compartment storage box 20, and arranged along the height direction of the vehicle 100.

[0044] The front-end heat dissipation module 50 is square and fixed to the vehicle body 10. In some embodiments of the present invention, the front-end heat dissipation module 50 and the vehicle body 10 can be fixedly connected by welding or by bolts. However, the present invention is not limited to this. The front-end heat dissipation module 50 and the vehicle body 10 can also be fixedly connected by other means, as long as the front-end heat dissipation module 50 is fixed to the vehicle body 10.

[0045] Along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle 100, the front-end heat dissipation module 50 is located on the front side of the engine compartment storage box 20, and the front-end heat dissipation module 50 is arranged along the height direction of the vehicle 100. Specifically, the front-end heat dissipation module 50 is located on the front side of the engine compartment storage box 20 and is arranged vertically. Compared with the traditional arrangement mode in which the front-end heat dissipation module 50 is set at an angle, it can free up the space on the front and lower sides of the engine compartment storage box 20, allowing the engine compartment storage box 20 to extend towards the front and lower sides, greatly increasing the volume of the engine compartment storage box 20.

[0046] Furthermore, the upper end of the front-end heat dissipation module 50 can be fixedly connected to the front-end module of the vehicle 100, and the lower end of the front-end heat dissipation module 50 can be fixedly connected to the energy-absorbing structure of the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body. This can transfer the vertical load (such as vibration and impact) of the front-end heat dissipation module 50 to the front structure of the vehicle body 10, while the connection between the lower end of the front-end heat dissipation module 50 and the energy-absorbing structure of the front longitudinal beam guides the horizontal load (such as collision force) to the frame of the vehicle body 10. The bidirectional fixing method can form a stable triangular mechanical structure, thereby reducing the risk of deformation of the front-end heat dissipation module 50 under complex working conditions.

[0047] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle 100 further includes an air conditioning compressor 60, which is disposed in the front engine compartment space 11 and located below the engine compartment storage box 20 along the height direction of the vehicle 100.

[0048] The air conditioning compressor 60 is located within the front engine compartment 11, along the height of the vehicle 100. Situated below the engine compartment storage box 20, it fully utilizes vertical space and avoids horizontally occupying area of ​​the front engine compartment 11. This allows the engine compartment storage box 20 to extend horizontally, increasing its volume. Furthermore, when the air conditioning compressor 60 needs repair, it can be exposed simply by removing the engine compartment storage box 20, shortening repair time. Alternatively, it can be repaired directly from the bottom of the vehicle without removing the storage box 20, further reducing repair difficulty and time.

[0049] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle 100 further includes: a front subframe 70, which is located below the vehicle body 10 and fixed to the vehicle body 10 along the height direction of the vehicle 100, and an air conditioning compressor 60 is fixed to the front subframe 70.

[0050] The front subframe 70 is rectangular in shape and is located below and fixed to the vehicle body 10. The air conditioning compressor 60 is fixed to the front subframe 70. Specifically, the front subframe 70 can be fixed to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body. The front subframe 70 includes a front crossbeam 71 and a longitudinal beam 72. The air conditioning compressor 60 is surrounded by a mounting bracket, which is rectangular in shape. The air conditioning compressor 60 is fixedly connected to the front crossbeam 71 and at least one longitudinal beam 72 of the vehicle body through the mounting bracket, forming a "horizontal-longitudinal" two-way support system to form a triangular mechanical structure. This significantly improves the installation stability and reliability of the air conditioning compressor 60, thereby effectively improving the safety and reliability of the vehicle 100.

[0051] According to some embodiments of the present invention, such as Figure 3As shown, the air conditioning compressor 60 and the temperature control integrated module 30 are arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle 10, and the air conditioning compressor 60 is located in front of the temperature control integrated module 30.

[0052] The air conditioning compressor 60 is located in front of the temperature control integrated module 30, allowing it to utilize the oncoming airflow generated during driving for air cooling, preventing overheating from prolonged operation and improving its reliability and lifespan. Furthermore, the high-temperature, high-pressure gaseous refrigerant discharged from the air conditioning compressor 60 can directly enter the condenser in the temperature control integrated module 30 for heat dissipation, reducing the length and bends of the high-pressure pipeline, thereby lowering flow resistance and pressure loss and improving system circulation efficiency. Moreover, the air conditioning compressor 60 is one of the main sources of vibration and noise; placing it in front of the temperature control integrated module 30 keeps it away from the passenger compartment, effectively utilizing the length of the front compartment to attenuate the vibration and noise of the air conditioning compressor 60, thus improving the quietness and smoothness of the vehicle interior.

[0053] Furthermore, the air conditioning compressor 60 and the temperature control integrated module 30 can be set to the same height, which makes the bottom of the cabin storage box 20 flatter and provides a support point for the cabin storage box 20.

[0054] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the vehicle 100 further includes a braking control module 51, the vehicle body 10 includes a front bulkhead 13, the front bulkhead 13 is the rear sidewall of the front engine compartment space 11, the braking control module 51 is disposed in the front engine compartment space 11, the braking control module 51 and the engine compartment storage box 20 are arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle 100 and are located on the rear side of the engine compartment storage box 20, and the braking control module 51 is fixed to the front bulkhead 13.

[0055] The braking control module 51 is generally square in shape. It and the engine compartment storage box 20 are arranged along the front-rear direction of the vehicle 100 and are located behind the storage box 20. The braking control module 51 is fixed to the front bulkhead 13. Specifically, the front bulkhead 13, as an important structural component of the front of the vehicle body 10, can absorb energy through crumpling deformation during a collision. The braking control module 51, fixed to the front bulkhead 13, utilizes the deformation space of the bulkhead 13 to avoid direct impact, protecting the precision components inside the module from damage. Furthermore, fixing the braking control module 51 to the front bulkhead 13 reduces the space occupied by other components in the front engine compartment 11, freeing up space for other parts (such as the engine and cooling system). This indirectly frees up space to increase the volume of the engine compartment storage box 20, and also improves the overall design flexibility of the vehicle 100.

[0056] Because the front-end heat dissipation module 50 is arranged vertically, compared to the traditional arrangement where the front-end heat dissipation module 50 is tilted, the space on the front and lower sides of the cabin storage box 20 can be freed up, providing more space for the temperature control integration module 30 and the air conditioning compressor 60. This allows the temperature control integration module 30 to be moved from the rear of the cabin storage box 20 to the bottom of the cabin storage box 20. Both the temperature control integration module 30 and the air conditioning compressor 60 are integrated at the bottom of the cabin storage box 20, which not only frees up a lot of space at the rear of the cabin storage box 20, but also makes the bottom of the cabin storage box 20 flatter and provides a support point for the cabin storage box 20. Therefore, the brake control module 51 is retained at the rear of the engine compartment storage box 20, which still allows the engine compartment storage box 20 to extend rearward, and also allows the front and lower parts of the engine compartment storage box 20 to be arranged more compactly. This helps to free up the space in front of and below the engine compartment storage box 20, allowing the engine compartment storage box 20 to extend forward and downward, thereby further increasing the volume of the engine compartment storage box 20.

[0057] Furthermore, the assembly sequence of the above components can be as follows: first, assemble the temperature control integrated module 30 and heater 40 onto the first fixed crossbeam 21, then connect them as a whole to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body, and at the same time connect the second fixed crossbeam 22 to the front longitudinal beam 12 of the vehicle body. Then, install the brake control module 51 onto the front bulkhead 13. Next, assemble the air conditioning compressor 60 and mounting bracket as a whole onto the front subframe 70. Then, connect the front subframe 70 as a whole to the vehicle body 10. Next, assemble the front heat dissipation module 50 with the vehicle body 10 and the front module. Finally, assemble the engine compartment storage box 20 onto the front and rear first fixed crossbeams 21 and second fixed crossbeams 22.
