[0047] The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present utility model will be described in detail below.

[0048] Below, refer to Figures 1 - 8 Describe the thermal management water side module 1000 according to an embodiment of the present utility model. The thermal management water side module 1000 is applied to a vehicle.

[0049] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the flow channel plate 100 according to the present utility model includes: a flow channel plate body 110 and a water pump volute 130. A flow channel is formed in the flow channel plate body 110. The water pump volute 130 is integrally formed with the flow channel plate body 110. The water pump volute 130 is in communication with the flow channel. The water pump volute 130 is used to cooperate with the volute-less water pump 200.

[0050] It can be understood that the runner plate body 110 and the water pump volute 130 constitute the main structure of the runner plate 100. A runner is formed inside the runner plate body 110, so that liquid can flow within the runner plate body 110, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the runner plate 100. The water pump volute 130 is arranged on the runner plate body 110, so that the water pump volute 130 can position the volute-less water pump 200, facilitating the arrangement of the volute-less water pump 200 on the runner plate 100, and also improving the sealing performance of the runner plate 100. Moreover, the water pump volute 130 and the runner plate body 110 are integrally formed, which is convenient for the production and manufacturing of the water pump volute 130 and the runner plate body 110, saves the manufacturing materials of the volute-less water pump 200, and thus reduces the development cost.

[0051] Therefore, by integrally forming the runner plate body 110 and the water pump volute 130, it is convenient to arrange the volute-less water pump 200 on the water pump volute 130. Moreover, the water pump volute 130 is connected to the runner, so that the volute-less water pump 200 can be connected to the runner, improving the sealing performance of the runner plate 100, reducing the development cost, and increasing the utilization rate of the vehicle installation space and the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0052] In particular, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, there are multiple runners and multiple water pump volutes 130. The multiple runners are in one-to-one correspondence and communication with the multiple water pump volutes 130. That is to say, the multiple water pump volutes 130 are arranged at intervals. One water pump volute 130 corresponds to one runner. Such an arrangement enables the multiple water pump volutes 130 to be connected to the multiple runners, allowing liquid to flow in the multiple runners, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the runner plate 100.

[0053] Among them, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the multiple water pump volutes 130 are arranged on one surface of the runner plate body 110 in the thickness direction and are spaced apart on this surface. It can be understood that the thickness direction is the front-back direction of the runner plate body 110. The multiple water pump volutes 130 are located on the side of the runner plate body 110 away from the controller 400, that is, on the rear side of the runner plate body 110, which is convenient for arranging the volute-less water pump 200 on the water pump volute 130, facilitating the volute-less water pump 200 to drive and transport the liquid in the runner. Moreover, the multiple water pump volutes 130 are arranged at intervals up and down, enabling the volute-less water pump 200 to also be arranged at intervals up and down, facilitating the volute-less water pump 200 to drive and transport the liquid in the multiple runners.

[0054] In addition, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a plurality of flow channels include a first flow channel and a second flow channel; a plurality of pump volutes 130 include a first pump volute 131 and a second pump volute 132. The first pump volute 131 communicates with the first flow channel, and the second pump volute 132 communicates with the second flow channel. Wherein, on the other surface in the thickness direction of the flow channel plate main body 110, a controller cooling cavity 111 is provided, and a part of the second flow channel is located in the controller cooling cavity 111. That is to say, the first flow channel and the second flow channel are located in the flow channel plate main body 110, so that liquid can flow in the first flow channel or the second flow channel. The first pump volute 131 and the second pump volute 132 are arranged at intervals up and down in the flow channel plate main body 110, which facilitates the setting of the volute-less pump 200 on the first pump volute 131 or the second pump volute 132. Moreover, the first pump volute 131 communicates with the first flow channel, and the second pump volute 132 communicates with the second flow channel, so that the volute-less pump 200 can drive the liquid flowing in the first flow channel or the second flow channel. The controller cooling cavity 111 is located on the side of the flow channel plate main body 110 close to the controller 400, that is, the controller cooling cavity 111 is located on the front side of the flow channel plate main body 110, and a part of the second flow channel is located in the controller cooling cavity 111, which facilitates the controller cooling cavity 111 to cool the controller 400.

[0055] In addition, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the first flow channel includes: a first liquid inlet flow channel and a first liquid outlet flow channel. The first liquid inlet flow channel has a first liquid inlet 112, and the first liquid outlet flow channel has a first liquid outlet 113. The first pump volute 131 communicates with the first liquid inlet flow channel and the first liquid outlet flow channel respectively. It can be understood that the first liquid inlet flow channel and the first liquid outlet flow channel constitute the main structure of the first flow channel. The first liquid inlet 112 is arranged at one end of the first liquid inlet flow channel facing the outside of the flow channel plate main body 110, and the first liquid outlet 113 is arranged at the other end of the first liquid outlet flow channel facing the outside of the flow channel plate main body 110. Such a setting facilitates the liquid to enter the first liquid inlet flow channel from the first liquid inlet 112, and then flow out from the first liquid outlet 113 after flowing through the first liquid outlet flow channel, so that the liquid can flow in the first flow channel. Moreover, the first pump volute 131 communicates with the first liquid inlet flow channel and the first liquid outlet flow channel, so that the volute-less pump 200 on the first pump volute 131 can drive and transport the liquid to flow in the first liquid inlet flow channel and the first liquid outlet flow channel, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the flow channel plate 100.

[0056] Particularly, as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the first liquid inlet 112 and the first liquid outlet 113 are located on one side of the outer periphery of the flow channel plate 100, and the included angle between the central axis of the first liquid inlet flow channel and the central axis of the first liquid outlet flow channel is an acute angle. That is to say, the first liquid inlet 112 and the first liquid outlet 113 are arranged at intervals up and down on the same side of the outer periphery of the flow channel plate 100, and the first liquid outlet 113 is arranged to incline downward relative to the first liquid inlet 112, so as to facilitate the liquid to enter the first flow channel from the first liquid inlet 112 and then flow out from the first liquid outlet 113.

[0057] In addition, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the second flow channel includes: a second liquid inlet flow channel, a cooling flow channel, and a plurality of second liquid outlet flow channels. The second liquid inlet flow channel has a second liquid inlet 114. The cooling flow channel is arranged in the controller cooling cavity 111 and is communicated with the second liquid inlet flow channel. Each second liquid outlet flow channel has a second liquid outlet 115. The second water pump volute 132 is respectively communicated with the cooling flow channel and the plurality of second liquid outlet flow channels.

[0058] It can be understood that the second liquid inlet flow channel, the cooling flow channel, and the plurality of second liquid outlet flow channels constitute the main structure of the second flow channel. One end of the second liquid inlet flow channel is provided with the second liquid inlet 114, and one end of the second liquid outlet flow channel is provided with the second liquid outlet 115. Such a setting facilitates the liquid to enter the second liquid inlet flow channel from the second liquid inlet 114, and then flow out from the second liquid outlet 115 after flowing through the second liquid outlet flow channel, so that the liquid can flow in the second flow channel. The cooling channel is located in the controller cooling cavity 111, so that the liquid can cool the controller 400 in the cooling channel. Moreover, the cooling channel is communicated with the second liquid inlet flow channel, so that the second liquid inlet flow channel, the cooling flow channel, and the plurality of second liquid outlet flow channels are connected. The second water pump volute 132 is connected with the cooling flow channel and the plurality of second liquid outlet flow channels, so that the volute-less water pump 200 on the second water pump volute 132 can drive and transport the liquid to flow in the second liquid inlet flow channel, the cooling flow channel, and the second liquid outlet flow channel, and further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the flow channel plate 100 and the controller 400.

[0059] Particularly, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, there are a plurality of second liquid inlets 114, and the plurality of second liquid inlets 114 are arranged on one side of the outer periphery of the flow channel plate 100. That is to say, the plurality of second liquid inlets 114 are liquid inlets and liquid replenishing ports. The liquid inlets and liquid replenishing ports are located on one side of the upper end of the flow channel plate 100, so as to facilitate the liquid to enter the second liquid inlets 114. Moreover, the liquid inlets and liquid replenishing ports are arranged at intervals, so that the liquid can be selected to flow in through the liquid inlets or liquid replenishing ports according to the actual vehicle working conditions.

[0060] In addition, as Figure 4As shown in the figure, a plurality of flow guiding plates 116 are arranged in the controller cooling cavity 111. A cooling inlet 117 and a cooling outlet 118 are respectively arranged in the controller cooling cavity 111. The cooling inlet 117 is communicated with the second liquid inlet channel, and the cooling outlet 118 is communicated with the second water pump volute 132. A cooling flow channel is formed between two adjacent flow guiding plates 116. It can be understood that the plurality of flow guiding plates 116 are arranged at intervals in the controller cooling cavity 111, so that the plurality of flow guiding plates 116 can divide the cooling area of the controller cooling cavity 111, and the plurality of flow guiding plates 116 can also guide the liquid. The cooling inlet 117 is located above the controller cooling cavity 111, and the cooling outlet 118 is located below the controller cooling cavity 111. Such an arrangement can make the plurality of flow guiding plates 116 located between the cooling inlet 117 and the cooling outlet 118. Thus, after the liquid enters the controller cooling cavity 111 through the cooling inlet 117, it can flow out from the cooling outlet 118 after being guided by the plurality of flow guiding plates 116. Moreover, the cooling inlet 117 is communicated with the second liquid inlet channel, and the cooling outlet 118 is communicated with the second water pump volute 132. Therefore, the liquid in the second liquid inlet channel can enter the cooling inlet 117, and the volute-less water pump 200 on the second water pump volute 132 can drive the liquid to flow out from the cooling outlet 118. The gap between two adjacent flow guiding plates 116 forms a cooling flow channel, so that the liquid can cool the controller 400 when flowing through the cooling flow channel, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the flow channel plate 100 and the controller 400.

[0061] In addition, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a control valve inlet 119 and a plurality of control valve outlets 120 are arranged on one side of the outer periphery of the flow channel plate body 110. The control valve inlet 119 is communicated with the second water pump volute 132, and the plurality of control valve outlets 120 are respectively and correspondingly communicated with a plurality of second liquid outlet channels. That is to say, the control valve inlet 119 and the plurality of control valve outlets 120 are arranged on the side of the flow channel plate body 110 close to the control valve 300, and the control valve inlet 119 and the plurality of control valve outlets 120 are arranged at intervals up and down. Thus, the liquid can flow into the control valve 300 through the control valve inlet 119 and then flow out through the plurality of control valve outlets 120. The control valve inlet 119 is connected to the second water pump volute 132. Therefore, the volute-less water pump 200 on the second water pump volute 132 can drive and convey the liquid into the control valve inlet 119. The plurality of control valve outlets 120 are respectively and correspondingly communicated with the plurality of second liquid outlet channels. Therefore, the liquid flowing out from the control valve outlet 120 can flow into the second liquid outlet channel, and thus the recycling of the liquid can be realized.

[0062] Particularly, as Figure 4As shown, a part of each second liquid outlet channel extends to the other surface of the channel plate body 110 in the thickness direction and is arranged at an interval from the controller cooling cavity 111. It can be understood that a part of the second liquid outlet channel is located on the side close to the controller 400, and the second liquid outlet channel and the controller cooling cavity 111 are arranged at an interval, so as to facilitate the communication between the cooling inlet 117 and the second liquid inlet channel, and further enable the liquid in the second liquid inlet channel to enter the cooling inlet 117.

[0063] In addition, as Figure 3 shown, the channel plate body 110 is provided with a plurality of mounting parts 121. The plurality of mounting parts 121 are arranged around the water pump volute 130, and the plurality of mounting parts 121 are used for mounting the vaneless water pump 200. That is to say, the plurality of mounting parts 121 are located on the channel plate body 110, and the plurality of mounting parts 121 are arranged at intervals on the outer periphery of the water pump volute 130. Such an arrangement can position the vaneless water pump 200 by the plurality of mounting parts 121, so that the fasteners can pass through the vaneless water pump 200 and the plurality of mounting parts 121, and further the vaneless water pump 200 can be mounted on the channel plate body 110.

[0064] In addition, as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, a plurality of bushings 122 arranged at intervals in the circumferential direction of the channel plate body 110 are provided on the outer peripheral side of the channel plate body 110, and the bushings 122 are used for connecting with the vehicle frame. It can be understood that the plurality of bushings 122 are located on the channel plate body 110, and the plurality of bushings 122 are arranged at intervals on the outer peripheral edge of the channel plate body 110, so that the bushings 122 can be connected with the vehicle frame, and further the channel plate body 110 can be connected with the vehicle frame. For example, rubber blocks are provided on the plurality of bushings 122, so as to realize the vibration isolation function of the channel plate 100.

[0065] According to the thermal management water side module 1000 of the embodiment of the present invention, it includes: the channel plate 100 and the vaneless water pump 200 of the above embodiments. The vaneless water pump 200 is mounted on at least one of the channel plate body 110 and the water pump volute 130. Such an arrangement can reduce the development cost, and can also improve the utilization rate of the vehicle installation space and the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0066] Among them, as Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 and Figure 6As shown, there are multiple flow channels, and the multiple flow channels include a first flow channel and a second flow channel; there are multiple pump volutes 130, and the multiple pump volutes 130 include a first pump volute 131 and a second pump volute 132. The first pump volute 131 is in communication with the first flow channel, and the second pump volute 132 is in communication with the second flow channel; there are multiple non-volute pumps 200, and the multiple non-volute pumps 200 include: a first pump 210 and a second pump 220. The first pump 210 cooperates with the first pump volute 131, and the second pump 220 cooperates with the second pump volute 132; the thermal management water-side module 1000 includes: a control valve 300 and a controller 400. The control valve 300 is connected to the second flow channel and is used to control the flow direction of the water flowing out of the second pump 220. The controller 400 is disposed in the controller cooling cavity 111, and the controller 400 is electrically connected to the first pump 210, the second pump 220, and the control valve 300 respectively.

[0067] That is to say, the first pump volute 131 is in communication with the first flow channel, the second pump volute 132 is in communication with the second flow channel, and the first pump 210 is disposed on the first pump volute 131, so that the first pump 210 can drive and convey the liquid in the first flow channel. The second pump 220 is disposed on the second pump volute 132, so that the second pump 220 can drive and convey the liquid in the second flow channel and the cooling flow channel. The control valve 300 is located on one side of the lower end of the flow channel plate 100, and the control valve 300 is in communication with the second flow channel, so that the second pump 220 can drive and convey the liquid in the second flow channel and the control valve 300. The controller 400 is disposed on one side of the controller cooling cavity 111 of the flow channel plate main body 110, so that the controller 400 can control the working states of the first pump 210, the second pump 220, and the control valve 300. For example, the first pump 210 and the second pump 220 are brushless motor pumps, and the control valve 300 is a three-way water valve and contains a brushed motor, which is convenient for the controller 400 to control the first pump 210, the second pump 220, and the control valve 300, and further can reduce the area of the control panel.

[0068] In particular, as Figure 8As shown, the controller 400 is provided with a waterproof and breathable valve 411. The waterproof and breathable valve 411 has the functions of waterproofing and breathability, but does not allow water to penetrate, thus preventing moisture from entering the controller 400 and balancing the pressure between the inside and outside of the controller 400. It can also keep the inside of the controller 400 dry and breathable and filter out impurities and particles in the external environment, thereby improving the performance of the controller. For example, when the temperature inside the controller 400 is too high, the waterproof and breathable valve 411 can reduce the pressure inside the controller 400 and keep the internal and external pressures the same. When the temperature inside the controller 400 decreases, the waterproof and breathable valve 411 can restore the pressure inside the controller 400 and keep the internal and external pressures the same again. The waterproof and breathable valve 411 can also prevent the circuit inside the controller 400 from being ablated, thereby extending the service life of the controller 400.

[0069] In addition, as Figure 7 and Figure 8 shown, the controller 400 includes: a housing 410 and a control board. The housing 410 is disposed in the controller cooling chamber 111, and the control board is disposed inside the housing 410. The control board is electrically connected to the first water pump 210, the second water pump 220, and the control valve 300 respectively. Among them, a waterproof and breathable valve 411 is disposed on a surface of the housing 410 away from the controller cooling chamber 111. It can be understood that the housing 410 and the control board constitute the main structure of the controller 400. The housing 410 is connected to the controller cooling chamber 111, so that the controller cooling chamber 111 can cool the controller 400. The control board is located inside the housing 410, so that the housing 410 can protect the control board, and it is convenient for the control board to be electrically connected to the first water pump 210, the second water pump 220, and the control valve 300. Such a setting can reduce the area of the control panel. The waterproof and breathable valve 411 is located on a side of the housing 410 away from the controller cooling chamber 111, so that the waterproof and breathable valve 411 can prevent the circuit inside the controller 400 from being ablated.

[0070] Among them, as Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown in the figure, the housing 410 includes a first housing 412 and a second housing 413. The first housing 412 is disposed in the controller cooling cavity 111, and the second housing 413 is disposed on a side of the first housing 412 away from the controller cooling cavity 111. The first housing 412 and the second housing 413 are connected and define a receiving cavity for receiving the control board. Among them, the second housing 413 is provided with a waterproof and breathable valve 411. That is to say, the first housing 412 and the second housing 413 constitute the main structure of the housing 410. The first housing 412 is connected to the controller cooling cavity 111, so that the controller cooling cavity 111 can cool the controller 400. The second housing 413 is located on a side of the first housing 412 away from the controller cooling cavity 111, so that a receiving cavity can be formed between the first housing 412 and the second housing 413, thereby facilitating the setting of the control board in the receiving cavity. The waterproof and breathable valve 411 is located on the second housing 413, so that the circuit in the controller 400 can be prevented from being ablated, and thus the service life of the controller 400 can be extended.

[0071] In addition, as Figure 7 shown, the first housing 412 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation ribs 414 distributed at intervals, and the heat dissipation ribs 414 protrude into the controller cooling cavity 111. It can be understood that the plurality of heat dissipation ribs 414 are arranged at intervals in the first housing 412, and the heat dissipation ribs 414 protrude towards the controller cooling cavity 111, so that the plurality of heat dissipation ribs 414 can cool the controller 400, and thus the heat dissipation efficiency of the controller 400 can be improved.

[0072] In addition to this, as Figure 5 and Figure 6 shown, a first wire outlet 211 is provided on an end face of the first water pump 210 away from the first water pump volute 131. The first wire outlet 211 is electrically connected to the controller 400 through a first wire harness. A second wire outlet 221 is provided on an outer peripheral surface of the second water pump 220. The second wire outlet 221 is electrically connected to the controller 400 through a second wire harness. That is to say, the first wire outlet 211 is located on a side of the first water pump 210 away from the controller 400, and the second wire outlet 221 is located on a side of the second water pump 220 close to the control valve 300, so that the layout space of the first water pump 210 and the second water pump 220 can be saved. Moreover, the first wire outlet 211 is connected to the controller 400 through the first wire harness, and the second wire outlet 221 is connected to the controller 400 through the second wire harness, so that the controller 400 can control the first water pump 210 and the second water pump 220.
