Description

Technical Field

[0002] The statements in this section merely provide background technical information related to the present invention and do not necessarily constitute prior art.

[0003] The working conditions of construction machinery are complex, and the output energy varies greatly over time. Hybrid construction machinery uses a low-power engine, which can work in the engine economic range for a long time after forming a dual power source with a battery, saving fuel consumption, maintenance costs and pollutant emissions, and is the mainstream direction of the industry.

[0004] There are thermal management requirements for many important components of hybrid engineering machinery, such as motors and their electronic control units, power batteries, cockpits, range extenders, diesel engines, hydraulic systems, etc. Most thermal management systems are complex and redundant, and are independent of each other in structure. Each component performs cooling and heating separately, resulting in a large number of parts in the whole machine, high energy consumption and low energy utilization.

[0005] The waste heat recovery mode can transfer waste heat from high-temperature components such as the engine to low-temperature components, thereby improving the energy utilization rate of the system. However, at present, the thermal management systems of most hybrid engineering machinery can only recover waste heat from the engine, and lack waste heat recovery from batteries, motors, cockpits and hydraulic oils; when the whole machine is running purely on electricity, the engine is turned off, and the system can only use PTC to heat the cockpit; after the vehicle is turned off, the waste heat in the cockpit is also wasted and cannot be used to maintain the temperature of the power battery. The above situations have caused a lot of energy waste. Summary of the invention
