[0037] Example 1
[0038] The utility model proposes a vehicle thermal management system, comprising a heating pump 100, through which thermal management of the vehicle can be achieved.
[0039] See also Figures 1 to 14 The heating pump 100 includes a shell 1, a cover body 2, a pump body 3 and a guide assembly. The pump body 3 is arranged in the shell 1, the cover body 2 is arranged at one end of the shell 1, the pump body 3 includes a stator 31, a rotor 32 and a heating assembly 33, the guide assembly includes an impeller 4 connected to the rotor 32, the impeller 4 is rotatably arranged at the water inlet 21 of the cover body 2, a heating chamber 6 is formed between the pump body 3 and the shell 1, and the heating assembly 33 is accommodated in the heating chamber 6.
[0040] The guide assembly also includes a fixed impeller 5 disposed at the water outlet of the impeller 4, wherein the fixed impeller 5 has a variety of structural forms, including 5a, 5b, 5c, and 5d, and the fixed impeller 5 is located between the pump body 3 and the cover body 2. The fixed impeller 5 has a plurality of guide channels 51, and the guide channels 51 connect the water outlet of the impeller 4 and the heating chamber 6. The heating chamber 6 here is also a flow channel, and the fluid enters the guide channel 51 after being discharged from the water outlet of the impeller 4, and is dispersed into the heating chamber 6 through the plurality of guide channels 51.
[0041] In this way, by arranging the fixed impeller 5 at the water outlet of the moving impeller 4, the fluid is automatically discharged from the water outlet of the impeller 4 and enters the guide channel 51, and is dispersed into the heating chamber 6 through multiple guide channels 51. This can not only reduce the flow resistance of the fluid entering the heating chamber 6, but also improve the uniformity of heating of the fluid, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the heating pump 100.
[0042] Of course, the water inlet 21 here is only used to describe the inlet of the fluid, and the fluid here can be water or other fluids that can be used for heating; the water outlet is also the same, and is only used to describe the outlet where the fluid is discharged from the automatic impeller 4.
[0043] Furthermore, the fixed impeller 5 surrounds the movable impeller 4 , so that the fluid can enter the heating chamber 6 along all directions of the circumference of the movable impeller 4 after being discharged from the water outlet of the impeller 4 .
[0044] See also Figure 3 ,as well as Figures 7 and 8 In this embodiment, the stator impeller 5 includes a plurality of stator blades 52 arranged at intervals along the circumference of the impeller 4 , and a guide channel 51 is formed between any two adjacent stator blades 52 .
[0045] Preferably, the plurality of fixed blades 52 are arranged spirally at intervals along the circumference of the impeller 4, and correspondingly, the plurality of guide channels 51 are also arranged spirally at intervals along the circumference of the impeller 4, so that the fluid can flow more smoothly in the guide channels 51 and reduce flow resistance.
[0046] Furthermore, along the radial direction of the impeller 4, the distance between adjacent fixed blades 52 gradually increases from the inside to the outside, and correspondingly, each guide channel 51 gradually widens from the inside to the outside, thereby further improving the guide effect of the guide channel 51 and reducing the flow resistance.
[0047] Combination Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment, the stator impeller 5 a is integrally disposed at one end of the cover body 2 facing the pump body 3 .
[0048] Combination Figures 5 to 8 In another embodiment, the stator impeller 5 b may also be integrally provided at one end of the pump body 3 facing the cover body 2 .
[0049] Both implementations can greatly simplify the structure of the heating pump 100 while reducing the flow resistance of the fluid entering the heating chamber 6 .
[0050] See also Figure 1 to Figure 2 ,as well as Figures 5 and 6 Furthermore, the pump body 3 includes an isolation sleeve 34, which includes a first cylindrical wall 341, a second cylindrical wall 342 and a bottom wall 343. The first cylindrical wall 341 and the second cylindrical wall 342 are coaxially arranged with the impeller 4. The first cylindrical wall 341 is located on the outer periphery of the second cylindrical wall 342. The bottom wall 343 connects the first cylindrical wall 341 and the second cylindrical wall 342 and is close to the cover body 2. The fixed impeller 5b is integrally arranged at one end of the bottom wall 343 facing the cover body 2.
[0051] Preferably, the heating component 33 is configured in a tubular shape, which not only increases the heating area of the heating component 33, thereby improving the heating efficiency of the heating pump 100, but also facilitates processing.
[0052] In this embodiment, the drain port 7 of the heating pump 100 is disposed on the cover 2, so that the contact area between the fluid and the heating assembly 33 can be increased, thereby improving the heating efficiency. In other embodiments, the drain port 7 of the heating pump 100 can also be disposed on the housing 1, and the heating chamber 6 is connected to the guide channel 51 and the drain port 7. Of course, the drain port 7 here is only used to describe the outlet of the fluid from the heating pump 100, and the fluid here can be water or other fluids that can be used for heating.
[0053] Preferably, the heating component 33 is located between the pump body 3 and the shell 1, and the heating component 33 divides the heating chamber 6 into a first chamber 61 and a second chamber 62. The first chamber 61 is located between the heating component 33 and the pump body 3, and the second chamber 62 is located between the heating component 33 and the shell 1, and the second chamber 62 is located downstream of the first chamber 61. That is, after the fluid enters the impeller 4 through the water inlet 21, it is discharged from the water outlet of the automatic impeller 4 and enters the guide channel 51, and then flows through the first chamber 61 and the second chamber 62 in sequence, and then discharges the heating pump 100 from the water outlet 7.
[0054] Specifically, one end of the heating component 33 close to the cover body 2 is connected to the cover body 2 , and a gap is formed between one end of the heating component 33 away from the cover body 2 and the housing 1 so that the fluid can flow from the first cavity 61 to the second cavity 62 .

The first guide portion 53 has a plurality of first flow grooves 531, and the second guide portion 54 has a plurality of second flow grooves 541. A first flow groove 531 is connected with a second flow groove 541 to form a guide channel 51, and a plurality of first flow grooves 531 are connected with a plurality of second flow grooves 541 one by one to form a plurality of guide channels 51.
[0058] See also Fig.11 Further, the first guide portion 53 includes a plurality of first guide ribs 532 arranged at intervals along the circumference of the impeller 4, and a first flow groove 531 is formed between any two adjacent first guide ribs 532.

[0063] In this embodiment, the stator impeller 5 d is an independent component and has no connection with the casing 1 and the pump body 3 , so the stator impeller 5 d can be replaced separately, thereby extending the service life of the heating pump 100 .
[0064] See also Figure 15 to Figure 16 Furthermore, the diverter member 55 includes an annular plate 552 and a plurality of diverter ribs 553 arranged at intervals along the circumference of the annular plate 552.
