[0030] In the description of the present utility model, 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 directly connected or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two elements. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present utility model can be understood according to specific situations.

[0031] The following will describe the detailed implementation manners of the present utility model in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the detailed implementation manners described herein are only used to illustrate and explain the present utility model, and are not used to limit the present utility model.

[0032] An embodiment of the first aspect of the present utility model is to provide a battery cover, as Figure 2 shown, including a cover body, a cover door 1, a support component, and a waterproof component 2;

[0033] The cover body has inspection openings on both sides in the vehicle width direction. The cover body includes a skin 3 and side trim panels 4 connected to both sides of the skin 3 in the vehicle width direction. The skin 3 and the side trim panels 4 on both sides are welded into one body, and the side trim panels 4 are connected to the support component, and the support component is used to connect to the top cover 5 of the vehicle;

[0034] The cover door 1 is rotatably connected to the inspection opening, and a waterproof component 2 for abutting against the cover door 1 is provided at the inspection opening.

[0035] As Figure 1 shown, in the existing electric buses, six battery boxes 9 are installed on the same bracket, and the length direction of the batteries is parallel to the direction from the head to the tail of the vehicle. During installation, the top side trim is fixed to both sides of the vehicle through a support component. After installing the bracket with six battery boxes 9 onto the top cover, the top-mounted battery cover is hoisted onto the top cover and connected to the top cover through the support component. The top-mounted battery cover extends from the front of the vehicle to the rear of the vehicle, and both sides of the top-mounted battery cover cover the outside of the top side trim.

[0036] In the existing electric buses, since both sides of the top-mounted battery cover cover the outside of the top side trim, both the top-mounted battery cover and the top side trim occupy the width space of the top cover. Therefore, the installation space reserved for the bracket is small. It is necessary to make the length direction of the batteries 9 parallel to the direction from the head to the tail of the vehicle to reduce the width space occupied by the six battery boxes 9. At the same time, it is necessary to install the six battery boxes 9 on the same bracket to ensure that the batteries 9 are more compact. Therefore, it is difficult to meet the arrangement of the batteries 9 in a through manner in the prior art, that is, it is difficult to meet the arrangement that the length direction of the batteries 9 is parallel to the width direction of the vehicle. At the same time, since the six battery boxes 9 are installed on the same bracket, when a single battery box needs to be repaired, the entire bracket needs to be disassembled, and a crane needs to be called for operation, so the convenience of battery installation and maintenance is poor.

[0037] In addition, since the top side trim is located inside the top-mounted battery cover and the top side trim has a certain height, if inspection doors are opened on the left and right sides of the top-mounted battery cover, the top side trim will block the lower part of the inspection opening, which will cause a certain obstruction to the inspection operation and is not convenient for personnel to operate. Especially for vehicles with a higher shape of the top side trim, it is required that both battery installation and maintenance need to be carried out on the roof of the vehicle, and it is strictly prohibited to step on the box cover during the operation, which increases the operation risk and operation difficulty.

[0038] In the battery cover provided by the embodiment of the first aspect of the present invention, as Figure 2 shown, the skin 3 is welded to the side trim 4 on both sides to form an integral body, and the cover body is used to replace the combined structure of the top side trim and the top-mounted battery cover of the traditional electric bus. Since the skin 3 is directly connected to the side trim 4, the skin 3 does not occupy the width space of the top cover 5, and further makes the cover body not occupy a large width space of the top cover 5, reducing the limitation on the installation space of the battery box to the minimum and making full use of the top space of the original vehicle model. When the above battery cover is under inspection, the cover door 1 can be opened and the operation can be carried out through the inspection opening. When the cover door 1 is closed, it can abut against the waterproof component 2, thereby playing a waterproof role.

[0039] In the above embodiments, first, it is convenient to implement the through arrangement of the batteries. There is no need to compactly arrange multiple battery boxes on the same bracket. Each battery box can be independently installed on different brackets, which is convenient for the removal of the batteries and the laying of the pipelines of the battery boxes, improving the convenience of battery installation and maintenance. Second, the inspection openings are located on both sides of the cover body along the vehicle width direction. After the cover door 1 is opened, there is no blocking structure inside the inspection openings, and the entire inspection openings are exposed in front of the personnel, facilitating the personnel to perform maintenance operations.

[0040] Specifically, the inspection opening can be solely opened on the side trim panel 4; when the height dimension of the inspection opening is relatively large, the inspection opening can also extend upwards to the skin 3, that is, the inspection opening is opened on the skin 3 and the side trim panel 4. That is to say, the personnel can adjust the position of the inspection opening according to actual needs.

[0041] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, to make the structure of the cover body more stable and firm, the battery cover further includes a reinforcing member 6. The reinforcing member 6 is connected to the inner side of the skin 3, or the reinforcing member 6 is connected to the inner sides of the skin 3 and the side trim panel 4.

[0042] It can be understood that a receiving cavity for accommodating structures such as battery boxes is formed between the cover body and the top cover 5. The above-mentioned inner side refers to the side of the skin and the side trim panel 4 facing the receiving cavity.

[0043] The setting of the reinforcing member 6 can enhance the strength of the cover body. In a preferred embodiment, the reinforcing member 6 is connected to the inner sides of the skin 3 and the side trim panel 4.

[0044] Specifically, the reinforcing member 6 can be a rectangular tube. The rectangular tube is welded to the inner side of the skin 3, or the rectangular tube is welded to the inner sides of the skin 3 and the side trim panel 4.

[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the rectangular tube is welded to the inner sides of the skin 3 and the side trim panel 4.

[0046] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the cover door 1 is rotatably connected to a part of the reinforcing member 6 close to the inspection opening.

[0047] In the above embodiment, the reinforcing member 6 can also support the cover door 1 to ensure that the cover door 1 rotates stably relative to the cover body.

[0048] In an alternative embodiment, for the convenience of the personnel's maintenance operations, the battery cover includes a telescopic mechanism 7. One end of the telescopic mechanism 7 is rotatably connected to the reinforcing member 6, and the other end is rotatably connected to the cover door 1.

[0049] When the personnel open the cover door 1, the telescopic mechanism 7 extends to support the cover door 1 in the opened state. Thus, during the maintenance process, it is not necessary for the personnel to continuously support the cover door 1, liberating the hands of the personnel.

[0050] Specifically, a buried plate 61 is connected to the reinforcing member 6, and the bottom end of the telescopic mechanism 7 can be rotatably connected to the buried plate 61, and the top end of the telescopic mechanism 7 is rotatably connected to the hatch door 1.

[0051] It should be noted that any structure that can drive the opening and closing of the hatch door 1 can be the telescopic mechanism 7 mentioned in the above embodiments. For example, the telescopic mechanism 7 can be a gas strut or a hydraulic strut, etc.

[0052] In a preferred embodiment, the telescopic mechanism 7 is a gas strut.

[0053] In an alternative embodiment, to ensure that the hatch door 1 can be stably locked in the closed state, a locking assembly for locking the hatch door 1 in the closed state is further provided between the hatch door 1 and the side decorative panel 4.

[0054] The above-mentioned locking assembly may include a buckle installed on the side decorative panel 4 and a spring connected to the buckle. When the hatch door 1 is closed, the hatch door 1 can be snapped onto the buckle. When the hatch door 1 needs to be opened, the buckle can be pressed down against the spring force to cancel the snap connection between the hatch door 1 and the buckle. After the hatch door 1 is opened, the buckle resets under the action of the spring.

[0055] The above-mentioned locking assembly may also include a limiting plate rotatably connected to the side decorative panel 4. When the limiting plate rotates to abut against the outer side surface of the hatch door 1, the opening of the hatch door 1 can be restricted. When the limiting plate rotates to cancel the abutment against the outer side surface of the hatch door 1, the hatch door 1 is not limited and the hatch door 1 can be opened.

[0056] Of course, the structure of the locking assembly is not limited to the above two embodiments. Any structure that can lock the hatch door 1 in the closed state can be the locking assembly mentioned in the above embodiments.

[0057] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the hatch door 1 can be bent into an arc shape. The top end of the hatch door 1 is rotatably matched with the reinforcing member 6, and the bottom end of the hatch door 1 can be buckled on the top cover 5.

[0058] In an alternative embodiment, as Figure 2 shown, the support assembly includes a transition bracket 8, and the transition bracket 8 is connected to both sides of the side decorative panel 4 in the vehicle width direction.

[0059] The above-mentioned transition bracket 8 can realize the connection between both sides of the side decorative panel 4 in the above direction and the top cover 5, thereby ensuring that the side decorative panel 4 is stably installed on the top cover 5.

[0060] Specifically, the transition bracket 8 can be configured as two, three, four, five or even more.

[0061] In a preferred embodiment, four transition brackets 8 may be configured, and the four transition brackets 8 are arranged opposite to each other in pairs along the width direction of the top cover 5 .

[0062] In an optional embodiment, if Figure 2 As shown, the transition bracket 8 includes a first bracket 81 and a second bracket 82, one end of the first bracket 81 is connected to the side decorative panel 4 and its position is adjustable relative to the side decorative panel 4 in the vertical direction, the other end of the first bracket 81 is connected to one end of the second bracket 82, and the end of the second bracket 82 away from the first bracket 81 is used to connect to the top cover 5 and its position is adjustable relative to the top cover 5 in the width direction of the vehicle.

[0063] In the above embodiment, since the position of the first bracket 81 is adjustable relative to the side decorative panel 4 in the vertical direction, and the position of the second bracket 82 is adjustable relative to the top cover 5 in the width direction of the vehicle, the installation of the side decorative panel 4 has a certain adjustment margin, and the operation of the installer is more convenient.

[0064] Specifically, the first bracket 81 is provided with a first waist-shaped hole, the extension direction of which is parallel to the vertical direction, and the second bracket 82 is provided with a first circular hole, through which a bolt can pass through the first circular hole and the first waist-shaped hole and be locked by a nut. Similarly, the second bracket 82 is provided with a second waist-shaped hole, the extension direction of which is parallel to the width direction of the vehicle, and the top cover 5 is provided with a second circular hole, through which a bolt can pass through the second circular hole and the second waist-shaped hole and be locked by a nut.

[0065] In an optional embodiment, a connecting frame is connected to one end of the side decorative panel 4 away from the skin 3, and the connecting frame can enhance the stability of the bottom of the side decorative panel 4. The connecting frame can be a rectangular frame, and the rectangular frame can include rectangular tubes connected horizontally and vertically.

[0066] On the basis of the above-mentioned embodiment, the transition bracket 8 further includes a fixed support, which is connected to both sides of the connecting frame along the length direction of the vehicle.

[0067] During installation, the connection frame can be placed on the top cover 5 , and the fixed support is connected between the connection frame and the top cover 5 to achieve the installation of the connection frame and the top cover 5 .

[0068] Specifically, the fixed support can be an L-shaped support, and a polyurethane pad, a flat pad, a spring pad, etc. can be provided between the L-shaped support and the top cover 5. The embedded bolts of the top cover 5 pass through the polyurethane pad, the flat pad, the spring pad and the L-shaped support and are locked by nuts to realize the connection between the L-shaped support and the top cover 5.

[0069] The above-mentioned transition bracket 8 and the fixed support are arranged, which not only realize the fixation of the two sides of the side trim panel 4 along the vehicle length direction to the roof cover 5, but also realize the fixation of the two sides of the side trim panel 4 along the vehicle width direction to the roof cover 5, making the side trim panel 4 more firmly installed on the roof cover 5.

[0070] In an alternative embodiment, the waterproof component 2 includes a waterproof plate 21 and a sealing strip 22. The waterproof plate 21 can be connected to the transition bracket 8 through connecting members such as bolts, and the waterproof plate 21 is recessed with a waterproof stop. The sealing strip 22 is installed in the waterproof stop and the sealing strip 22 fits against the roof cover 5.

[0071] When the hood door 1 is closed, the hood door 1 can be closed on the sealing strip 22 in the waterproof stop. The sealing strip can be arranged around the inspection opening, or can be distributed at some edges of the inspection opening. The sealing strip can compensate for the gap between the hood door 1 and the inspection opening, thereby playing a waterproof role.

[0072] In the above-mentioned embodiment, the sealing strip 22 can also be arranged to fit against the roof cover 5, preventing rainwater from entering the accommodation cavity through the gap between the hood door 1 and the fixed roof cover 5, and playing a protective role for the battery box.

[0073] An embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention is to provide a roof structure. The roof structure provided by the embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention includes a roof cover 5, a first cover shell, a second cover shell and the above-mentioned battery cover. The first cover shell, the battery cover and the second cover shell are sequentially connected to the roof cover 5 along the front-to-rear direction of the vehicle body, and the battery cover is arranged opposite to the battery bracket on the roof cover 5.

[0074] Compared with the prior art, in the roof structure provided by the embodiment of the second aspect of the present invention, the first cover shell, the battery cover and the second cover shell are sequentially connected to the roof cover 5 along the front-to-rear direction of the vehicle body, and the battery cover is arranged vertically opposite to the battery bracket on the roof cover 5. Therefore, when the battery needs to be replaced, the battery cover can be removed separately without synchronously removing the first cover shell and the second cover shell. Compared with the traditional top-mounted battery cover that extends from the front of the vehicle to the rear of the vehicle, it can effectively reduce the hoisting difficulty and reduce the maintenance cost.

[0075] In the above-mentioned roof structure, the front and rear ends of the battery cover are respectively connected to the first cover shell and the second cover shell, ensuring the overall effect of the roof structure.

[0076] Of course, in other embodiments, the roof structure may only include the first cover shell or only include the second cover shell, and one end of the battery cover away from the first cover shell or the second cover shell extends to the end of the vehicle.

[0077] In an alternative embodiment, the battery bracket includes a plurality of independently arranged sub-brackets, each sub-bracket is detachably connected to the roof cover 5, and each bracket is used to install a battery box.

[0078] In the above embodiments, since each bracket is used to install a battery box, when a certain battery box needs to be replaced, the corresponding bracket can be disassembled, effectively reducing the difficulty of disassembling and assembling the battery box and making it more convenient for personnel to repair.

[0079] An embodiment of the third aspect of the present invention provides an electric bus. The electric bus provided by the embodiment of the third aspect of the present invention includes the above battery cover and the above roof structure.
