Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of vehicle equipment, and more particularly, to an engine compartment fuse box and a vehicle. Background Art

[0002] With the increase in automotive functions, the number of high-power components has increased accordingly, especially in the front compartment area. High-power components require special fuses to be matched, such as MIDI type chip fuses. Due to their large size, they cannot be placed on the main body of the fuse box.

[0003] The number of high-power components configured in different vehicle models also varies. To avoid redundant waste of the number of fuses in the fuse box, vehicle manufacturers usually design different fuse boxes for different vehicle models and configurations.

[0004] This results in traditional vehicle manufacturers developing multiple sets of molds to cope with different functional configurations when planning the engine compartment fuse box, causing waste of mold cost investment and waste of man-hours for frequent mold replacement for injection molding.

[0005] In addition, generally, various types of fuses are provided in a vehicle, and how to scientifically and reasonably layout different types of fuses is also an urgent problem to be solved. Summary of the Utility Model

[0006] The purpose of the present application is to provide an engine compartment fuse box and a vehicle, which can meet the requirements of the structural design of fuse boxes for different vehicle models with low cost investment, and can improve the layout of fuses and make more reasonable use of the space of the fuse box.

[0007] To achieve the above object, in a first aspect, the present utility model provides an engine compartment fuse box, including a main box body and a sub-box body. The fuses include a first type of fuse and a second type of fuse. A plurality of the first type of fuses are dispersedly arranged on the main box body. The sub-box body includes a side shell, and a plurality of the second type of fuses are installed on the side shell, and a plurality of installation positions for the fuses are reserved on the side shell.

[0008] In an alternative embodiment, the fuses further include a third type of fuse, and a plurality of the third type of fuses are arranged at the corner parts on the same side of the main box body.

[0009] In an alternative embodiment, the second type of fuse includes a chip fuse, and both ends are fixed to the side shell by bolts and nuts.

[0010] In an alternative embodiment, guiding pieces are arranged on the side of the side shell, and adjacent guiding pieces form a guiding groove for the second type of fuse, and the guiding groove is opposite to the position of the bolt.

[0011] In an alternative embodiment, a relay is further included, which is installed at the corner part of the main box body and is oppositely arranged on the other side of the third type of fuse.

[0012] In an alternative embodiment, the side shell is a U-shaped side shell, including a length frame arranged in the length direction of the main box body and a width frame arranged in the width direction of the main box body. The reserved installation position is arranged on the length frame and / or the width frame for expanding the installation of the second type of fuse.

[0013] In an alternative embodiment, a wiring bolt and a wiring nut are arranged on the length frame. The wiring bolt is connected to the bus of the fuse box and is fixedly installed through the wiring nut.

[0014] In an alternative embodiment, a connector is arranged on the other side of the main box body relative to the first type of fuse. The connector is used to connect and conduct the first type of fuse with the circuit path.

[0031] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of this application.

In addition, terms such as "first", "second", etc. are only used for distinguishing descriptions and cannot be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.

[0033] In the description of the present application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise clearly specified and defined, the terms "set" and "connected" 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 directly connected, or indirectly connected through an intermediate medium, and it can be the communication inside two components. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meanings of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] The engine compartment fuse box in the present application is mainly used for the configuration of different types of fuses. Specifically, in the form of reserved installation positions, it meets the quantity differences of high-power components in different vehicle models, provides a certain expansion space for function expansion, and at the same time reduces the development quantity of fuse box molds and lowers the cost.

[0035] See Figure 1 , and in combination with Figure 2 , in the engine compartment fuse box of the present utility model, the main structure includes a main box body 1 and a sub-box body 2. Among them, the main box body 1 serves as the installation main body of the fuses and is mainly used for installing the fuses corresponding to low-power components. Specifically, the fuses include a first type of fuse 3 and a second type of fuse 4, and multiple first type of fuses 3 are dispersedly arranged on the main box body 1.

[0036] The fuse types in the present application mainly include three different forms. Specifically, from the corresponding angle, the first type of fuse 3 is a MINI fuse with a smaller size, and the MINI fuse mainly corresponds to components with smaller power.

[0037] The second type of fuse 4 is a MIDI fuse with a larger size, and the MIDI fuse mainly corresponds to components with larger power, specifically including sheet-shaped MIDI type chip fuses.

[0038] The sub-box body 2 includes a side shell 21 surrounding the side of the main box body 1, and multiple second type of fuses 4, that is, multiple sheet-shaped MIDI type chip fuses with a larger size, are installed on the side shell 21.

[0039] By differentiating the installation of two different types of fuses, combining the dispersed arrangement of MINI fuses on the main box body 1 and the installation of MIDI type chip fuses on the outer peripheral side shell 21, a scientific and reasonable layout of different types of fuses can be achieved, improving the integration degree.

[0040] Since the MIDI type chip fuse occupies a large area, by reserving multiple second reserved installation positions 41 for fuses on the side shell 21, the installation quantity of MIDI type chip fuses can be increased, so as to match the setting quantity of high-power components on different vehicle models, reduce additional mold opening processes, and lower the cost.

[0041] Based on the settings of multiple fuses, the fuse in this application further includes a third type of fuse 5. The third type of fuse 5 is specifically an MCASE fuse between a MINI fuse and a MIDI fuse. The MCASE fuse is specifically a plug-in type fuse, including multiple ones. Multiple MCASE fuses are plug-in installed at the corner parts on the same side of the main box body 1, which can realize the simultaneous installation of multiple different types of fuses.

[0042] Based on the fact that the second type of fuse 4 described above is a relatively large-sized MIDI type chip fuse, from the perspective of its installation, the MIDI type chip fuse is fixed on the side shell 21 through a fuse bolt 42 and a fuse nut 43. Refer to Figure 1 the layout form in, both ends of the second type of fuse 4 are respectively connected and installed through a fuse bolt 42 and a fuse nut 43, and are fixed on the side shell 21.

[0043] Furthermore, multiple second type of fuses 4 are arranged adjacent to each other on the side shell 21 of the main box body 1. They can be installed in the length direction of the side shell 21 or in the width direction of the side shell 21, ensuring full occupancy of the space of the side shell 21.

[0044] Guide pieces 22 are provided on the side part of the side shell 21. Adjacent guide pieces 22 form a guide groove 23 for the second type of fuse 4. By making the position of the guide groove 23 opposite to that of the bolt, on the one hand, it can play a good positioning effect, and on the other hand, it is also convenient for wiring the second type of fuse 4, ensuring the connection and conduction between the second type of fuse 4 and the circuit path.

[0045] From the perspective of the basic control of the circuit, the present utility model further includes a relay 6. The relay 6 is installed at the corner part of the main box body 1 and is relatively arranged on the other side of the third type of fuse 5.

[0046] Specifically, the size of the MCASE fuse of the third type of fuse 5 is between that of a MINI fuse and a MIDI fuse, while the size of the relay 6 is relatively large. By arranging the relay 6 and the MCASE fuse on both sides of the main box body 1 respectively, the main installation space on the main box body 1 can be left, meeting the dispersed and dense distribution of MINI fuses on the main box body 1.

[0047] The side shell 21 on the side of the main box body 1 is specifically in the structural form of a U-shaped side shell 21, specifically including a length border 24 arranged in the length direction of the main box body 1 and a width border 25 arranged in the width direction of the main box body 1. The width border 25 is closely arranged on both sides of the length border 24.

[0048] The second reserved installation position 41 is provided on the length border 24 and / or the width border 25. Specifically, according to the specific wiring form, the second reserved installation position 41 can be provided on the length border 24 of the side shell 21, or on the width border 25 of the side shell 21. Additionally, the second reserved installation position 41 can also be provided on both the length border 24 and the width border 25 simultaneously, so as to be able to be used for expanding the installation of the second type of fuse 4.

[0049] Based on the structure in the drawings, the second reserved installation position 41 includes a middle installation position 41a provided at the middle part of the length border 24, and a side installation position 41b located on one of the width borders 25. By leaving multiple second reserved installation positions 41, multiple installation positions for the second type of fuse 4 can be reserved for different vehicle models, providing sufficient expansion installation space for the relatively large MIDI type chip fuses.

[0050] In order to supply power to the fuse box and ensure normal power supply, a wiring bolt 7 and a wiring nut 71 are provided on the length border 24. Specifically, the wiring bolt 7 and the wiring nut 71 are provided at the side end of the length border 24, mainly used to connect the wiring bolt 7 to the bus of the fuse box and firmly install the bus on the fuse box through the wiring nut 71.

[0051] In the present utility model, the MIDI type chip fuse conducts the circuit path through wiring, while for the relatively small MINI fuse, the circuit path is conducted by connecting its pins to the connector.

[0052] Specifically, a connector (not shown in the figure) is provided on the other side of the main box body 1 relative to the first type of fuse 3. The connector is used to connect and conduct the first type of fuse 3 with the circuit path.

[0053] The MCASE fuse of the third type of fuse 5 is specifically installed in a plug-in form. In order to fully consider providing a certain expansion space for different fuses, a third reserved installation position 51 for plugging and fixing the third type of fuse 5 and a relay reserved installation position 61 for plugging and fixing the relay 6 are also provided on the main box body 1.

[0054] Furthermore, in order to fully provide an effective expansion space for all types of fuses, a first reserved installation position 31 for connecting and installing the first type of fuse 3 is also provided on the main box body 1, which can provide sufficient expansion installation positions for different types of fuses, enabling the same mold to meet the expansion installation requirements of different vehicle models with different numbers, sizes, and powers of components.

[0055] The present utility model also provides a vehicle, including the above-mentioned engine compartment fuse box, which can greatly reduce the dependence of a specific vehicle model on a specific fuse box mold, and a general fuse box can meet the usage requirements of different vehicles, thereby reducing the development cost to the greatest extent.

[0056] It should be noted that, without conflict, the features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other.

[0057] The above are only the preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made to the present application. Any modification, equivalent replacement, improvement, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present application shall be included within the protection scope of the present application.
