Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle front-end cooling modules, and more specifically, to a front-end cooling module and a vehicle provided with the front-end cooling module. Background Art
[0002] The information provided in this section is for the purpose of generally presenting the background of the present disclosure. To the extent described in this section, the work of the presently named inventors and aspects of the description that may not constitute prior art at the time of filing are neither explicitly nor implicitly admitted to be prior art to the present disclosure.
[0003] The vehicle front cooling module is a module composed of heat exchange components at the front end of the vehicle, which is used for cooling or heating through heat exchange of refrigerant, including a housing, a radiator, a condenser and a fan, etc. A damper is provided in the housing to allow airflow to flow through the front cooling module to achieve the purpose of promoting heat exchange. The vehicle front cooling module is usually arranged at the vehicle drive system, which can realize heat exchange of refrigerant to promote the cooling or heating process of the cabin air conditioner.
[0004] The front cooling module is very important for the heating of the cabin air conditioner in winter. When the cabin air conditioner needs to be heated, the condenser actually plays the role of the evaporator in the traditional air conditioner. The refrigerant is transported to the condenser, and the condenser absorbs heat from the external environment to make the refrigerant absorb heat, and finally transports the refrigerant after absorbing heat to the cabin for heating. The fan unit of the front cooling module is generally arranged on the front or rear side of the assembly of the condenser and the radiator to bring the airflow of the outside air into the front cooling module and promote the heat circulation between the components in the front cooling module. The radiator and the condenser usually have aluminum fins. During the movement of the vehicle, if a stone falls into the front cooling module, the structure of the aluminum fin will be damaged, resulting in a decrease in ventilation performance and affecting the heat dissipation effect. In addition, if mud or leaves are sucked into the front cooling module, they are easy to adhere to the aluminum fins, which will also cause problems such as poor heat dissipation.

[0020] In order to make the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present application are described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. First of all, it should be noted that the directional terms such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, outside, top, bottom, etc. mentioned or may be mentioned in this specification are defined relative to the structures shown in the drawings. They are relative concepts and may change accordingly according to their different positions and different usage states. Therefore, these or other directional terms should not be interpreted as restrictive terms.
[0021] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" 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 an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.
[0022] Figure 1 The schematic structure of the front-end cooling module disclosed in this application is shown. Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be clearly seen in the figure that the front-end cooling module 10 includes an air intake housing 100 with an air inlet, and an air intake grille 110 is arranged at the air inlet. The air intake grille 110 has a plurality of openings (not shown) and a damper (not shown) assigned to each opening. The opening of the damper depends on the strength of the air flow passing through it, which is usually determined by the vehicle speed and the wind speed. In addition, a partition plate 120 is clamped at each opening, and the partition plate 120 has a plurality of through holes 121 for air intake, and the edge of the partition plate 120 is coated with an elastic member 130, for example, the elastic member 130 can be made of rubber and fixed to the edge of the partition plate 120 by secondary rubber coating. When the partition plate 120 is clamped at the opening of the air intake grille 110, the elastic member 130 can undergo elastic deformation, so that the partition plate 120 is firmly clamped to the side wall of the air intake grille 110, and the elastic member 130 also plays an effective sealing role.
[0023] In combination with the above embodiment, in other optional embodiments, the partition plate 120 has a rectangular shape and is provided with a first edge 122 and a second edge 123 opposite to each other, the elastic member 130 includes a first elastic member 131 and a second elastic member 132, the first elastic member 131 is provided at the first edge 122 of the partition plate 120, and the second elastic member 132 is provided at the second edge 123 of the partition plate 120, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 Specifically, the length of the first elastic member 131 is the same as the length of the first edge 122 of the partition plate 120 , and the length of the second elastic member 132 is the same as the length of the second edge 123 of the partition plate 120 .
[0024] For the purpose of easy installation, a slot (not shown) for installing the partition plate 120 is provided on the side wall of the air intake grille 110. When the operator installs the partition plate 120 on the side wall of the air intake grille 110 of the air intake housing 100, the elastic member 130 can be squeezed and deformed into the slot, thereby fixing the partition plate 120 on the side wall of the air intake grille 110. When it is necessary to clean the fallen leaves or stones on the partition plate 120, the partition plate 120 is very easy to disassemble.
[0025] In such Figure 2 In the partition plate 120 of the front-end cooling module 10 shown, the cross-sectional shape of the through hole 121 is designed to be rectangular. Of course, the size, shape and position of the through hole 121 of the partition plate 120 can be designed according to actual needs and are not limited here. For example, the cross-sectional shape of the through hole 121 can also be set to be circular, elliptical, triangular, quadrilateral, pentagonal or hexagonal, etc. In addition, the size and shape of the through hole 121 of the partition plate 120 can be designed to be exactly the same. As an alternative, the area of the through hole 121 of the partition plate 120 is not greater than 20mm 2 , thereby preventing dirt, stones or fallen leaves from entering the air inlet grille 110 of the air inlet and damaging the internal structure of the front-end cooling module 10.
[0026] Continue to refer Figure 1 The front-end cooling module 10 further includes an exhaust housing 500 with an air outlet 510 , and a radiator 200 , a condenser 300 and a fan 400 arranged in sequence between the air intake housing 100 and the exhaust housing 500 .
[0027] In addition, the present application also provides a vehicle, which is provided with the above-mentioned front-end cooling module 10. The vehicle can be a pure electric vehicle in particular. It should be noted that the technical improvements and beneficial effects of the vehicle are the same as those of the front-end cooling module, and will not be repeated here.
[0028] Several specific implementations are listed above to explain in detail the front cooling module of the present application and the vehicle equipped with the front cooling module. These examples are only used to illustrate the principle and implementation of the present application, but not to limit the present application. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, ordinary technicians in this field can also make various modifications and improvements. Therefore, all equivalent technical solutions should belong to the scope of the present application and be defined by the claims of the present application.
