[0030] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0031] Application Overview
[0032] Refrigerated trucks are a common special-purpose vehicle. Since the vehicle is equipped with a refrigerated cargo compartment for transporting goods that need to be refrigerated, a corresponding refrigeration system needs to be configured for the cargo compartment. The refrigeration system is used to extract the heat in the cargo compartment and discharge it into the outside atmosphere to achieve cooling of the cargo compartment.
[0033] However, in low-temperature environments, the cab of a refrigerated truck also needs heating, and a special cab air conditioning system is generally used; and for electric refrigerated trucks, the power battery will affect battery performance at low temperatures, so in order to ensure the normal power supply of the power battery, a special battery heating system is usually provided. In existing refrigerated trucks, the refrigeration system, cab air conditioning system, and battery heating system are independent of each other, which makes the vehicle structure and pipeline layout more complicated, and increases the manufacturing cost of the vehicle; at the same time, the heat absorbed during the refrigeration process of the cargo compartment is not effectively utilized, but directly discharged into the atmosphere, causing energy waste, and the heating system of the cab and power battery also requires additional energy consumption, resulting in poor vehicle economy and increased vehicle use costs.
[0034] Some embodiments of the vehicle heating system, the battery heating system and the vehicle in the technical solution of the present utility model are provided below.
[0035] In an embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, a vehicle heating system 100 is provided, which is applied to a vehicle with a cargo compartment. The vehicle heating system 100 in this embodiment is described below using a refrigerated truck as an example.
[0036] like Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the vehicle heating system 100 includes a cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1, a heating branch 2 and a control valve assembly 3. The cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 is provided with a first radiator 12 and a cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13. In actual application, the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 can exchange heat with the cargo compartment, absorb the heat in the cargo compartment and release it into the liquid in the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 to reduce the temperature in the cargo compartment, thereby achieving a cooling effect on the cargo compartment; the first radiator 12 is used to dissipate heat to the outside. When the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 is in a conducting state, the liquid in the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 flows through the first radiator 12 and releases heat to the outside to achieve heat dissipation to the outside. The heating branch 2 is arranged in parallel with the first radiator 12. When used, the heating branch 2 can heat the vehicle's cab or power battery to achieve cab heating or battery heating. The control valve assembly 3 is connected to the heating branch 2 and the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1, and the connection between the control valve assembly 3 and the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 is located between the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 and the first radiator 12. The connection state of the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 with the heating branch 2 and the first radiator 12 can be controlled by the control valve assembly 3. Specifically, the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 can be connected to the first radiator 12 to realize the self-conduction of the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1, the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 can be connected to the heating branch 2, and the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 can also be connected to the first radiator 12 and the heating branch 2 at the same time.
[0037] When in use, corresponding control operations can be performed according to the actual use needs of the vehicle. For example, when the cab or power battery has a heating demand, the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 can be connected to the heating branch 2 through the control valve component 3. At this time, the heat absorbed during the cargo compartment refrigeration process can be used to heat the cab or power battery through the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 and the heating branch 2 to achieve the function of indoor air conditioning or battery heating; when the cab and the power battery do not have a heating demand, the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 can be connected to the first radiator 12 through the control valve component 3, so that the heat absorbed during the cargo compartment refrigeration process is released to the outside through the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 and the first radiator 12 to achieve normal heat dissipation. Of course, the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 can also be connected to the first radiator 12 and the heating branch 2 at the same time through the control valve component 3. At this time, part of the heat absorbed during the cargo compartment refrigeration process can be used to heat the cab or power battery, and the other part of the heat can be released to the outside.
[0038] It is understandable that in an environment with low temperatures, power batteries are prone to power depletion, and heating the power batteries can help ensure battery performance.
[0039] It should be noted that the vehicle in this embodiment includes but is not limited to an electric refrigerated vehicle or a hybrid refrigerated vehicle, and of course it can also be an internal combustion engine vehicle. In this case, the heating branch 2 can heat the cab or other equipment of the vehicle. In addition, in the present invention, the liquid in the pipeline can be a coolant or other fluid medium, and the following situation is the same.
[0040] The vehicle heating system 100 in this embodiment improves the setting method of the cargo compartment refrigeration system and the heating system in the existing vehicle. It can not only realize the normal cooling of the cargo compartment, but also use the heat absorbed during the cargo compartment cooling process to heat the cab or the power battery. It not only simplifies the system, but also improves the energy utilization rate, can effectively reduce the vehicle manufacturing cost and use cost, and improve the driving experience.
[0041] In a further embodiment of the present invention, Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in the vehicle heating system 100, the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 includes a first pipeline 111 and a second pipeline 112; the two ends of the first pipeline 111 are respectively connected to the liquid outlet of the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 and the liquid outlet of the first radiator 12, and the two ends of the second pipeline 112 are respectively connected to the liquid inlet of the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 and the liquid outlet of the first radiator 12. Correspondingly, the control valve assembly 3 includes a first reversing valve 31, a stop valve 32 and a reversing controller 33; the first reversing valve 31 is arranged in the first pipeline 111, the first reversing valve 31 is connected to the heating branch 2, and is suitable for connecting the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 with the heating branch 2 and / or the first radiator 12, that is, the first reversing valve 31 can be operated by reversing to connect the first pipeline 111, at this time the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 is connected to the first radiator 12 through the first pipeline 111, and the first The reversing valve 31 can also disconnect the first pipeline 111 and connect the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 with the heating branch 2 through a reversing operation. The first reversing valve 31 can also connect the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 with the heating branch 2 while the first pipeline 111 is connected through a reversing operation. The stop valve 32 is arranged at one end of the heating branch 2 away from the first reversing valve 31, and the stop valve 32 is connected to the second pipeline 112. The stop valve 32 can connect or disconnect the heating branch 2 with the second pipeline 112. The reversing controller 33 is respectively connected to the first reversing valve 31 and the stop valve 32 in communication to control the working states of the first reversing valve 31 and the stop valve 32.
[0042] In actual application, under normal conditions, the reversing controller 33 controls the first reversing valve 31 and the stop valve 32 to make the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 conduct itself and realize normal cooling and heat dissipation. The reversing controller 33 can obtain a heating instruction for the cab or the power battery. When receiving the above heating instruction, the reversing controller 33 performs corresponding control operations on the first reversing valve 31 and the stop valve 32 to connect the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 with the heating branch 2 to heat the cab or the power battery.
[0043] Furthermore, if Figure 3 , Figure 4 The first reversing valve 31 shown is provided with a first valve port 311, a second valve port 312 and a third valve port 313; the first valve port 311 is connected to the pipeline connected to the liquid outlet of the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13, the second valve port 312 is connected to the pipeline connected to the liquid inlet of the first radiator 12, and the third valve port 313 is connected to the heating branch 2.
[0044] Among them, in a specific implementation, the first reversing valve 31 specifically adopts a two-position three-way valve; the first reversing valve 31 can be operated by the valve core reversing operation, so that the first valve port 311 is connected with the second valve port 312, at this time, the first pipeline 111 is connected, and the heating branch 2 is disconnected from the first pipeline 111; the first reversing valve 31 can also be operated by the valve core reversing operation, so that the first valve port 311 is connected with the third valve port 313, at this time, the first pipeline 111 is disconnected, and the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 is connected with the heating branch 2. Preferably, the first reversing valve 31 can be used as follows Figure 4 The two-position three-way solenoid valve shown in FIG. The first reversing valve 31 in this embodiment has a simple structure, relatively low cost, and is convenient for connection and reversing control.
[0045] In another specific implementation, the first reversing valve 31 adopts a proportional valve, and the first reversing valve 31 can make the first valve port 311 communicate with the second valve port 312 and the third valve port 313 at the same time through the valve core reversing operation. At this time, the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 is simultaneously connected with the first radiator 12 and the heating branch 2, and the flow of the second valve port 312 and the third valve port 313 can be adjusted according to the use needs, so that part of the heat absorbed in the cargo compartment cooling process heats the cab or the power battery through the heating branch 2, and the other part of the heat is released to the outside through the first radiator 12. Preferably, the first reversing valve 31 can specifically adopt a proportional reversing valve or a proportional regulating valve. Of course, when the first reversing valve 31 is a proportional valve, the second valve port 312 or the third valve port 313 can also be controlled to be closed, so that the first valve port 311 is connected to the third valve port 313 alone or is connected to the second valve port 312 alone, so that the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 is connected to the heating branch 2 alone or is connected to the first radiator 12 alone, which will not be repeated here.
[0046] Furthermore, if Figure 5 As shown, the heating branch 2 specifically includes a first branch 21 and a second branch 22 which are arranged in parallel. A first water pump 211 is provided in the first branch 21, and the liquid outlet of the first water pump 211 faces the direction of the connection stop valve 32; a battery cooler 221 is provided in the second branch 22. In practical applications, the first branch 21 can be used as a battery water channel for the power battery. When the first branch 21 is connected to the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13, the first branch 21 can heat the power battery; the second branch 22 can cool the liquid. When the first branch 21 is connected to the second branch 22, the liquid can flow through the battery cooler 221 for cooling, so that the first branch 21 can cool and dissipate heat for the power battery.
[0047] The first branch 21 can directly adopt the existing battery water channel of the power battery, or can be connected to the existing water channel of the power battery. The battery cooler 221 can specifically adopt the existing combined chiller of the power battery.
[0048] It can be understood that under normal temperature environment, the power battery needs to be cooled down during normal operation. At this time, it is not necessary to heat the power battery. The battery cooler 221 of the second branch 22 can be connected to the first branch 21 to achieve cyclic cooling of the power battery. The setting of the heating branch 2 in this embodiment can meet the cooling demand of the power battery during normal operation and the heating demand of the power battery in a low temperature environment.
[0049] Furthermore, if Figure 5 and Figure 6In the example in FIG. 3 , the control valve assembly 3 further includes a second reversing valve 34. The second reversing valve 34 is arranged in the pipeline between the heating branch 2 and the first reversing valve 31. Specifically, the second reversing valve 34 is provided with a fourth valve port 341, a fifth valve port 342 and a sixth valve port 343; the fourth valve port 341 is connected to the third valve port 313 of the first reversing valve 31 through a pipeline, the fifth valve port 342 is connected to the second branch 22, and the sixth valve port 343 is connected to the first branch 21. The second reversing valve 34 can make the sixth valve port 343 communicate with the fourth valve port 341 through the valve core reversing operation. At this time, when the first valve port 311 of the first reversing valve 31 is also connected to the third valve port 313, the first branch 21 is connected to the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 through the first reversing valve 31 and the second reversing valve 34, and the second branch 22 is disconnected, so that the heated liquid generated by the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 flows into the first branch 21, so as to use the heat of the liquid to heat the power battery; the second reversing valve 34 can also make the sixth valve port 343 communicate with the fifth valve port 342 through the valve core reversing operation. At this time, the first branch 21 is connected to the second branch 22 to form a loop, and the first valve port 311 of the first reversing valve 31 is connected to the second valve port 312, so that the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 itself forms a circulation loop. The second reversing valve 34 is connected to the reversing controller 33 in communication to perform reversing operation according to the instruction of the reversing controller 33.
[0050] In this embodiment, the first reversing valve 31 and the second reversing valve 34 cooperate to realize different communication relationships between the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13, the first radiator 12 and the first branch 21 and the second branch 22 of the heating branch 2 of the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1, so as to meet normal heat dissipation and heating requirements. The control valve assembly 3 has a relatively simple structure and is easy to connect and control.
[0051] In a further embodiment of the present invention, Figure 5 As shown, the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 also includes a third water pump 14 and a cooling fan 15. The third water pump 14 is specifically arranged in the second pipeline 112, and the liquid outlet of the third water pump 14 is toward the liquid inlet of the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13, so that the liquid in the pipeline circulates toward the liquid inlet of the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 through the pumping operation of the third water pump 14. The cooling fan 15 is arranged corresponding to the first radiator 12, and the airflow movement on the surface of the first radiator 12 can be accelerated by the rotation of the cooling fan 15 to promote the heat dissipation and cooling of the first radiator 12, which is conducive to further improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The cooling fan 15 can specifically adopt an electronic fan to facilitate electronic control operation; a corresponding temperature threshold can be set, and when the temperature of the first radiator 12 exceeds the temperature threshold, the cooling fan 15 is turned on to accelerate the heat dissipation.
[0052] Furthermore, if Figure 5As shown, the cargo compartment heat exchange assembly 13 specifically includes a cargo compartment cooling circuit 131 and a cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132. The cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132 is provided with a first water channel 1321 and a second water channel 1322. The first water channel 1321 is connected to the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1, and the second water channel 1322 is connected to the cargo compartment cooling circuit 131; the cargo compartment cooling circuit 131 is provided with a cargo compartment evaporator 1311. In actual application, the cargo compartment cooling circuit 131 is set corresponding to the cargo compartment to absorb the heat in the cargo compartment to achieve refrigeration of the cargo compartment; in addition, as shown in FIG. Figure 5 In the example in FIG. 1 , a fourth water pump 1312 may also be provided in the cargo compartment cooling circuit 131, and the fourth water pump 1312 pumps liquid, so that the liquid in the cargo compartment cooling circuit 131 circulates. When the liquid flows through the second water channel 1322 of the cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132, it exchanges heat with the first water channel 1321, and the liquid in the first water channel 1321 absorbs the heat in the second water channel 1322, so that the heat in the cargo compartment cooling circuit 131 is exchanged to the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1, and then releases the heat to the outside through the first radiator 12, or supplies heat through the heating branch 2.
[0053] Specifically, under normal temperature conditions, Figure 7 In the example, the cargo compartment of the vehicle is in a normal cooling state, and the power battery is also in a normal operating state. At this time, under the control of the reversing controller 33, the valve core of the first reversing valve 31 is switched to the first valve port 311 and the second valve port 312 are connected (such as Figure 7 The valve core of the second reversing valve 34 is switched to the sixth valve port 343 and communicates with the fifth valve port 342 (such as Figure 7 The stop valve 32 is in the closed state. The cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 forms a large cycle, and the first branch 21 and the second branch 22 of the heating branch 2 form a small cycle, and the two cycles are independent of each other. The cargo compartment cooling circuit 131 absorbs the heat in the cargo compartment and enters the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 through the cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132, and then the heat is released from the first radiator 12 to the outside atmosphere through the large cycle; at the same time, the liquid in the heating branch 2 circulates to cool the power battery.
[0054] In special cases, such as low temperature environments, Figure 8 In the example in FIG. 8 , the cargo compartment of the vehicle is in a normal cooling state, but the power battery needs to be heated. At this time, under the control of the reversing controller 33, the valve core of the first reversing valve 31 is switched to the first valve port 311 and connected to the third valve port 313 (as in the upper position in FIG. 8 ), and the valve core of the second reversing valve 34 is switched to the sixth valve port 343 and connected to the fourth valve port 341 (as in FIG. 8 ). Figure 8The stop valve 32 is in the on state. The first radiator 12 in the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 is disconnected from the cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132, the first branch 21 of the heating branch 2 is connected to the cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132 to form a loop, and the second branch 22 is also disconnected. The cargo compartment cooling circuit 131 absorbs heat in the cargo compartment and enters the first branch 21 of the heating branch 2 through the cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132 to heat the power battery.
[0055] In a further embodiment of the present invention, Fig. 9 As shown, in another implementation of the heating branch 2, the heating branch 2 specifically includes a third branch 23, in which a second radiator 231 and a second water pump 232 are provided, and the third branch 23 can be connected to the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 to form a loop by reversing the valve core of the first reversing valve 31. In actual application, the second radiator 231 can be arranged corresponding to the cab of the vehicle, and the liquid in the loop circulates under the pumping action of the second water pump 232, so that the heat generated during the refrigeration process of the cargo compartment is introduced into the second radiator 231 of the third branch 23 through the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13, so as to release the heat through the second radiator 231 and heat the cab. When the cab does not need to be heated, the valve core of the first reversing valve 31 is reversed to the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1 to be connected, and the heat is normally dissipated to the outside, and the third branch 23 is disconnected from the cargo compartment heat dissipation circuit 1.
[0056] Furthermore, as required, the second radiator 231 may also be provided with a corresponding electronic fan to accelerate the movement of airflow and deliver hot air to the cab.
[0057] Furthermore, the cargo compartment heat exchange component 13 may also be Figure 7 and Figure 8 The structural form shown in the figure, that is, the form including the cargo compartment condenser exchanger 132 and the cargo compartment cooling circuit 131, has the same specific working principle as that in the above embodiment and will not be repeated here.

There is no need to set up an additional battery heating device, which improves energy utilization, saves energy and is environmentally friendly, and is conducive to reducing vehicle use costs.
[0064] In addition, the battery heating system 400 in this embodiment also has all the beneficial effects of the vehicle heating system 100 in any embodiment of the first aspect mentioned above, which will not be repeated here.
