The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and cannot be understood as limiting the present invention.

In the description of the present invention, unless otherwise specified, "multiple" means two or more.

[0038] In the description of the present invention, it should be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "installation", "connection" and "connection" should be understood in a broad sense, for example, it can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection, or it can be indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, or it can be the internal communication of two components. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0039] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 6 A thermal management module 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, the thermal management module 100 according to some embodiments of the first aspect of the present utility model comprises: a body 1 and a protection device 2. The protection device 2 is connected to the surface of the body 1, and a collapse energy absorption structure 20 is provided on the protection device 2.

[0041] When a collision or impact occurs, the crush energy absorption structure 20 can deform to absorb and disperse part of the impact force. Through this deformation, the energy transmitted to the body 1 is reduced, thereby reducing the risk of damage to the internal components of the thermal management module 100 and refrigerant leakage.

[0042] At the same time, by providing the protection device 2, the force distribution of the thermal management module 100 is optimized to a certain extent, so that when the thermal management module 100 is impacted, the force is evenly dispersed through the protection device 2, further enhancing the impact resistance of the thermal management module 100.

[0043] In addition, the protective device 2 can also cooperate with the main body 1 structure of the thermal management module 100. The protective device 2 has a certain supporting effect on the main body 1, so the two can form a stable thermal management module 100 as a whole, thereby improving the stability of the thermal management module 100.

[0044] In some optional embodiments, Figure 2 As shown, at least one surface of the body 1 is provided with a protective device 2. For example, during the driving of the vehicle, the thermal management module 100 may be impacted from different directions, such as side collision, rear-end collision, etc. By providing the protective devices 2 at multiple locations, the thermal management module 100 can be more comprehensively protected, so that it can maintain relatively stable performance in various situations and reduce the possibility of failure.

[0045] For example, the setting position of the protection device 2 can be adjusted according to the layout of the internal structure of the thermal management module 100. In particular, the surface of the main body 1 around the refrigerant component in the thermal management module 100 can effectively protect the internal refrigerant component and improve the reliability of the entire thermal management module 100.

[0046] Since the protective device 2 is connected to the surface of the body 1, it also has good maintainability and replaceability. After an impact event occurs, only the damaged protective device 2 on the surface of the body 1 needs to be replaced, so that the thermal management module 100 can quickly restore its original impact resistance performance and reduce maintenance costs.

[0047] It should be noted that this thermal management module 100 with a protective device 2 can be applied to vehicles, and can also be applied to other scenarios that require thermal management and anti-collision protection. In the following description of this application, this thermal management module 100 with a protective device 2 is used in a vehicle as an example for explanation. However, those skilled in the art should understand that whether it is industrial equipment, building facilities or other systems, as long as there are high requirements for thermal management and anti-collision performance, the thermal management module 100 in this application can play a certain role.

[0048] like Figure 1 , Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, according to the thermal management module 100 of some embodiments of the present invention, the collapse energy absorption structure 20 includes: a first energy absorption cavity 201 provided in the protective device 2 and a filling member 202 provided in the first energy absorption cavity 201 .

[0049] The first energy absorption cavity 201 has a certain deformation space, and when impacted by external force, the first energy absorption cavity 201 can be deformed. This deformation can absorb a large amount of impact energy through plastic deformation or fracture of the first energy absorption cavity 201. In this way, even if the thermal management module 100 is subjected to a strong impact, the direct impact of the impact force on the internal structure of the thermal management module 100 can be effectively reduced.

[0050] The filler 202 is disposed in the first energy absorbing cavity 201. When the protective device 2 is impacted, the filler 202 can respond quickly and deform or break accordingly. In this process, the filler 202 will buffer and absorb part of the impact energy, thereby further reducing the impact force transmitted to the main body 1 of the thermal management module 100.

[0051] In some embodiments, the collapse energy absorption structure 20 further includes: a second energy absorption cavity 203. By providing the second energy absorption cavity 203, the impact resistance of the thermal management module 100 is further enhanced.

[0052] The second energy absorbing cavity 203 is located between the first energy absorbing cavity 201 and the body 1 , and the second energy absorbing cavity 203 is an air cavity.

[0053] With this arrangement, when the thermal management module 100 is impacted, the external force will first reach the first energy absorption cavity 201. The deformation space formed by the first energy absorption cavity 201 and the filler 202 inside it will respond quickly, absorbing and dispersing part of the impact energy. Subsequently, the remaining external force will continue to be transmitted to the second energy absorption cavity 203. The deformation space formed by the second energy absorption cavity 203 can further buffer and disperse the remaining external force, further reducing their direct impact on the body 1.

[0054] Through this step-by-step energy absorption method, the crushing energy absorption structure 20 can minimize the damage to the thermal management module 100 body 1 caused by the impact. At the same time, since the second energy absorption cavity 203 is close to the body 1, it can also provide additional protection for the body 1 to prevent the body 1 from being severely deformed or broken under strong impact.

[0055] like Figure 3-Figure 6 As shown, in some embodiments, the filler 202 is a porous filler material.

[0056] First, the porous filling material contains a large number of pores and tiny channels. These pores and channels are like multiple small energy absorption chambers inside the filling member 202. When impacted, the multiple small energy absorption chambers each absorb and disperse a portion of the energy. This multi-level energy absorption mechanism enables the porous filling material to absorb and disperse the impact energy more efficiently, providing more comprehensive protection for the thermal management module 100.

[0057] Secondly, these tiny energy absorbing chambers are interconnected, which also enhances the structural stability of the filling piece 202. They support each other and form a network structure, which can maintain the overall stability when impacted and prevent the filling piece 202 from breaking or falling off.

[0058] In addition, the large number of pores in the porous filling material is equivalent to forming a plurality of weight-reducing holes, which correspondingly makes the filling member 202 lighter in weight, helping to reduce the burden of the entire thermal management module 100. When the thermal management module 100 is applied to a vehicle, it is beneficial to achieve lightweighting of the vehicle.

[0059] In some optional embodiments, the porous filling material piece may be a porous metal piece or a porous polymer piece. The porous metal piece, such as foam metal, has a porous structure that enables the metal to deform when impacted, thereby absorbing and dispersing the impact force through deformation, thereby reducing damage to the structure of the main body 1.

[0060] Optionally, the porous filling material piece may be foamed aluminum.

[0061] According to the thermal management module 100 of some embodiments of the utility model, the collapse energy absorption structure 20 includes at least two energy absorption chambers. The protective device 2 includes: a protective back plate 25 and a protective shell 26. The protective back plate 25 is connected to the body 1, and at least one energy absorption chamber (i.e., the second energy absorption chamber 203) is formed between the protective back plate 25 and the body 1; the protective shell 26 is connected to the side of the protective back plate 25 away from the body 1, and at least one energy absorption chamber (i.e., the first energy absorption chamber 201) is formed between the protective shell 26 and the protective back plate 25.

[0062] First, when external forces act on the protective shell 26, the first energy absorption cavity 201 can use its internal structure to convert the impact energy into other forms of energy, such as heat energy or deformation energy, thereby reducing the energy directly transferred to the protective back plate and the internal structure. This energy absorption and dispersion mechanism can significantly reduce the degree of damage to the internal structure caused by the impact force.

[0063] Secondly, a second energy absorption cavity 203 is formed between the protective back plate 25 and the main body 1 to further absorb and alleviate the external impact force, so that the impact force gradually weakens during the propagation process, thereby protecting the internal structure of the main body 1 and reducing the risk of damage to the thermal management module 100.

[0064] In some embodiments, Figure 1 , Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, the protective back plate 25 and the protective shell 26 are both extended along the first direction, the protective shell 26 is connected to the protective back plate 25 at both ends in the second direction, and the protective back plate 25 is connected to the body 1 at both ends in the second direction, and there is an angle between the first direction and the second direction.

[0065] For example, the protective back plate 25 and the protective housing 26 can effectively cover the key parts of the thermal management module 100 and provide protection for a larger area.

[0066] Optionally, the protective back plate 25 and the protective housing 26 can be produced by a simple processing method using a plate body, which not only reduces the production cost but also improves the production efficiency. This simple processing technology is conducive to the large-scale production of the thermal management module 100, that is, a longer raw material is manufactured and then cut into a suitable length according to actual needs. In mass production, waste can be avoided.

[0067] like Figure 3-4 As shown, according to the thermal management module 100 of some embodiments of the present invention, the protective back plate 25 includes an intermediate plate 251, two first bending sections 252 and two second bending sections 253. The two first bending sections 252 are respectively located at the two ends of the intermediate plate 251 along the second direction, and one end of each first bending section 252 is connected to the adjacent edge of the intermediate plate 251. The two second bending sections 253 are respectively located at the two ends of the intermediate plate 251 along the second direction, and one end of each second bending section 253 is connected to the other end of the adjacent first bending section 252, and the second bending section 253 is connected to the body 1.

[0068] The middle plate 251, as the main part of the protective back plate 25, provides basic protection functions and also provides an installation basis for the setting of the protective shell 26. The middle plate 251 extends along the second direction and can effectively cover the key areas of the thermal management module 100, such as the refrigerant component area, to prevent external impact from directly acting on the body 1 and causing refrigerant leakage.

[0069] Secondly, the two first bending sections 252 are respectively located at the two ends of the middle plate 251 along the second direction and connected to the adjacent edges of the middle plate 251. In this way, a second energy absorption cavity 203 is formed between the protective back plate 25 and the body 1, and the entire structure becomes compact. In addition, the first bending section 252 can disperse and absorb a part of the impact of the external force, reducing the transmission of the impact force to the second bending section 253.

[0070] Furthermore, the two second bending sections 253 are respectively located at the two ends of the middle plate 251 along the second direction, and are connected to the other end of the adjacent first bending section 252. This continuous bending enables the middle plate 251 to better fit the shape of the body 1, and enhances the connection stability between the protective back plate 25 and the body 1. At the same time, the second bending section 253 is connected to the body 1 to form a supporting structure, further ensuring the stable connection between the protective back plate 25 and the body 1.

[0071] Through this multi-section bending structure, the protective back plate 25 can absorb and buffer the impact force accordingly through the deformation and energy absorption of each bending section when it is hit. At the same time, the energy absorption cavity formed between the middle plate 251, each bending section and the main body surface provides additional space for absorbing and dispersing the impact energy. The second energy absorption cavity 203 responds to the impact force and absorbs the impact energy through the compression and deformation of the air inside it, thereby reducing direct damage to the main body 1.

[0072] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the thermal management module 100 is as follows: Figure 3 , Figure 6 As shown, each second bending section 253 is provided with a plurality of connection holes 2531, and the plurality of connection holes 2531 are spaced apart along the first direction. The connection holes 2531 are used to connect with the body 1 of the thermal management module 100. The thermal management module 100 also includes a plurality of connectors, which are provided at the connection holes 2531 and connected to the body 1.

[0073] The protective back plate 25 is fixed to the body 1 by passing a plurality of connectors through the connecting holes 2531. This not only ensures the stability of the protective back plate 25 in normal working state, but also prevents the protective back plate 25 from falling off or shifting when impacted through the restraining effect of the connectors, thereby ensuring the overall safety of the thermal management module 100.

[0074] Such a connection method is simple, reliable, and easy to operate, and can also form a tight connection structure. At the same time, since the plurality of connection holes 2531 are spaced apart along the first direction, the number and position of the connectors can be adjusted according to actual needs to adapt to thermal management modules 100 of different sizes and shapes.

[0075] Optionally, the connecting member may be a bolt, a screw, a stud or the like.

[0076] In some optional embodiments, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the crush energy absorption structure 20 further includes: a protrusion 204 , and the protrusion 204 is arranged on a side of the protective device 2 away from the main body 1 .

[0077] Then, when subjected to external force, the protrusion 204 will first contact the external force. As the first part to be hit, the protrusion 204 can pre-disperse and reduce the impact force transmitted to the body 1. This helps to reduce the risk of damage to the body 1 and improve the safety performance of the overall structure of the thermal management module 100. In addition, the protrusion 204 can increase the deformation space of the protective device 2, so that the protective device 2 can have a larger deformation range to absorb and disperse the impact force when subjected to external force.

[0078] Optionally, the protrusion 204 is extended along the first direction. By extending the protrusion 204, the direction of the impact force can be guided so that it is dispersed on the protective device 2 along the path of the first direction, which helps to reduce the direct damage of the impact force to the structure of the body 1, thereby improving stability and durability.

[0079] In some optional embodiments, such as Figure 3-Figure 4 As shown, the protective housing 26 includes: two support plate segments 261 and a connecting plate segment 262. The two support plate segments 261 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, each support plate segment 261 is extended along the first direction, and one end of the support plate segment 261 is connected to the protective back plate 25. The connecting plate segment 262 is extended along the first direction, and the two ends of the connecting plate segment 262 in the second direction are respectively connected to the two support plate segments 261, and at least a portion of the connecting plate segment 262 is bent and deformed in a direction away from the protective back plate 25 to form at least one protrusion 204.

[0080] Specifically, the two support plate segments 261 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, and such an arrangement can provide support for the protective housing 26, so that the protective housing 26 forms protection for the thermal management module 100. At the same time, the support plate segment 261 is extended along the first direction, which is conducive to improving the overall stability of the protective housing 26. One end of the support plate segment 261 is connected to the protective back plate 25, so that the impact force can be effectively transmitted to the entire protective device 2 to avoid excessive local force.

[0081] The connecting plate segment 262 is extended along the first direction and connected to two supporting plate segments 261 at both ends in the second direction, and at least a portion of the connecting plate segment 262 is bent and deformed in a direction away from the protective back plate 25, thereby forming a protrusion 204. This bending deformation not only increases the deformation space of the protective device 2, but also enables the protrusion 204 to bear the impact first, thereby playing the role of absorbing energy and dispersing the impact force.

[0082] In some optional embodiments, the protective housing 26 and the protective back plate 25 are both heat-conducting metal plates.

[0083] When the thermal management module 100 is working, the heat generated inside it will be quickly transferred to the heat-conducting metal plate of the protective device 2. Since the heat-conducting metal plate has a large surface area, the heat can be dispersed to the heat-conducting metal plate, which can accelerate the heat dissipation. The heat is transferred to the air through the heat-conducting metal plate, which helps to reduce the temperature inside the thermal management module 100 and prevent it from overheating.

[0084] The good strength and rigidity of the heat-conducting metal plate also ensure its stability in the thermal management module 100. Even in a high temperature environment, the metal plate can maintain its structural integrity, ensuring the continuity and effectiveness of heat transfer.

[0085] In addition, the metal plate material has high strength and hardness, so that the protective device 2 can withstand greater impact and pressure and is not easily deformed or damaged.

[0086] In some optional embodiments, the protective housing 26 and the protective back plate 25 are both heat-conducting aluminum plates.

[0087] In some Figure 1-Figure 4 , Figure 6 In the illustrated embodiment, both ends of the protection device 2 along the first direction are open, so that the protection device 2 can improve the structural safety while also meeting the heat dissipation requirements.

[0088] Through the open setting, when part of the heat in the thermal management module 100 enters the protective device 2 through the surface of the body 1, it is effectively dissipated through the open openings at both ends, which helps to maintain the stable operation of the thermal management module 100 and prevent internal overheating.

[0089] The thermal management system according to the second embodiment of the utility model includes a thermal management module 100. The thermal management module 100 is the thermal management module 100 of the first embodiment of the present application. The thermal management system improves the stability and reliability of the thermal management system by adopting the thermal management module 100 with anti-collision function.

[0091] The vehicle is equipped with a thermal management system with anti-collision function, which not only achieves thermal management of the vehicle but also enhances safety performance, meeting users' multiple demands for vehicle safety and efficiency.
