[0002] Vehicles typically have a cooling system to provide adequate cooling for heat-generating components, thereby precisely controlling their operating status. This system includes a cooling module, which can be equipped with a fan and a water tank. A coolant pump delivers coolant from the tank to the components on the vehicle that require cooling, removing heat and maintaining normal operating temperatures.

[0003] The top of the existing heat dissipation module is installed on the bottom of the upper cross beam, and the upper cross beam is in a fixed installation space in the vehicle. When the size of the heat dissipation module changes, for example, the size of the heat dissipation module is reduced, the fixed installation position of the upper cross beam cannot be adjusted, resulting in the disadvantages of space occupation and excessive space design; at the same time, since the heat dissipation module is close to the upper cross beam, other components cannot be arranged on the upper cross beam, such as the front hood lock. The front hood lock can only be set on the outside of both sides of the upper cross beam, resulting in the problem of limited space available at the upper cross beam position. Utility Model Content

[0032] In order to make the technical solutions and advantages of the embodiments of the present application more clearly understood, the exemplary embodiments of the present application are further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, and are not an exhaustive list of all the embodiments. It should be noted that the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other unless they conflict.

[0033] Example 1

[0034] This embodiment provides a fixing mechanism for a heat dissipation module 1. Both sides of the heat dissipation module 1 are detachably connected to an energy absorption box 2. One end of the energy absorption box 2 is provided with a fixing plate 21 that is detachably connected to a fixed position within the vehicle. The other end of the energy absorption box 2 is connected to the side of the anti-collision beam.

[0035] In this embodiment, the straight-line driving direction of the vehicle is defined as the Y-axis direction, which is also the length direction; the direction between the left and right side panels of the vehicle is defined as the X-axis direction, which is also the width direction; and the direction between the roof and floor of the vehicle is defined as the Z-axis direction, which is also the height direction.

[0036] like Figure 1-Figure 7As shown, the anti-collision beam and the energy absorption box 2 located on both sides thereof form a semi-enclosed structure, and the heat dissipation module 1 is located in the space of the semi-enclosed structure. The heat dissipation module 1 is spaced apart from the anti-collision beam, and the two sides of the heat dissipation module 1 are respectively connected to the bottom of the energy absorption box 2. The connection method can be screwing, clamping or welding. In this embodiment, the two sides of the heat dissipation module 1 are respectively screwed and fixed to the bottom of the energy absorption box 2, so that the energy absorption box 2 supports the heat dissipation module 1, and the energy absorption box 2 distributes the weight of the heat dissipation module 1 to the anti-collision beam. The fixing mechanism and the heat dissipation module 1 are both connected to the energy absorption box 2. The assembly structure is compact, unnecessary assembly parts are avoided, the spatial layout is more reasonable, and the overall assembly structure is stable.

[0037] The fixing mechanism includes a first column 3, a second column 4 and an upper crossbeam 5; the first column 3 is respectively arranged on the energy absorption box 2 located on both sides of the heat dissipation module 1, and the relative distance between the first column 3 and the second column 4 can be adjusted and installed and fixed. The two sides of the upper crossbeam 5 are respectively connected to the second columns 4 located on both sides of the heat dissipation module 1, and a separation space 6 is formed between the upper crossbeam 5 and the heat dissipation module 1.

[0038] The upper crossbeam 5 is provided with an installation position 51 for installing the hood lock. The hood lock can be set in the partition space 6 and connected to the middle part of the upper crossbeam 5. The hood lock is located in the partition space 6, does not occupy the space above the upper crossbeam 5, and does not interfere with the heat dissipation module 1. The installation position arrangement of the hood lock is more reasonable.

[0039] The fixing mechanism also includes a fixing portion 7, which is arranged on the side wall of the first column 3. A fixing member 11 is provided on the top of the heat dissipation module 1. The fixing portion 7 and the fixing member 11 are positioned by an elastic seat 71 to achieve the connection and positioning of the heat dissipation module 1 and the first column 3. Support portions 12 are provided on both sides of the heat dissipation module 1. The top of the support portion 12 is detachably connected to the bottom of the energy absorption box 2. The heat dissipation module 1 is stably connected to the first column 3 through the fixing member 11. The heat dissipation module 1 is stably connected to the energy absorption box 2 through the support portion 12, thereby maintaining the entire heat dissipation module 1 in a vertical installation state. Even if the heat dissipation module 1 is not connected to the upper crossbeam 5, it still remains stably installed. The fixing portion 7 and the fixing member 11 cooperate to position the heat dissipation module 1 in the X-axis and Y-axis directions; the support portion 12 cooperates with the energy absorption box 2 to position the heat dissipation module 1 in the Z-axis direction.

[0040] Among them, the fixing part 7 can be an L-shaped structure, one end of the fixing part 7 is connected to the side wall of the first column 3, and the other end of the fixing part 7 extends to the top of the heat dissipation module 1 in the spacing space 6. The end of the fixing part 7 is provided with an elastic seat 71, and the elastic seat 71 is fixed with the fixing part 7 by clamping. Specifically, the end of the fixing part 7 is provided with a fixing port for accommodating the elastic seat 71, and the elastic seat 71 is embedded in the fixing port and maintains a stable connection. A matching portion is provided in the elastic seat 71, and the matching portion can be a fixing hole 72. The fixing part 11 of the heat dissipation module 1 is plugged into the fixing hole 72 to achieve the positioning of the heat dissipation module 1 and the fixing part 7. In this embodiment, the elastic seat 71 is made of rubber material, and the fixing part 11 inserted into the fixing hole 72 has a certain elastic effect, which makes the alignment assembly process more convenient and reduces assembly wear.

[0041] The two sides of the heat dissipation module 1 provided in this embodiment are respectively connected to the energy absorption box 2, and the first column 3 is arranged on the energy absorption box 2. The installation positions of the heat dissipation module 1 and the first column 3 on the energy absorption box 2 are respectively stable; the relative distance between the first column 3 and the second column 4 can be adjusted and installed and fixed, and the two sides of the upper beam 5 are respectively connected to the second column 4, thereby forming an interval space 6 between the upper beam 5 and the heat dissipation module 1. When the installation distance of the second column 4 relative to the first column 3 changes, the distance between the upper beam 5 and the heat dissipation module 1 changes, and the installation position design of the upper beam 5 is more reasonable, avoiding unnecessary space occupation of the upper beam 5. At the same time, the interval space 6 formed between the upper beam 5 and the heat dissipation module 1 can be adaptively installed with other components, making full use of the interval space 6, and avoiding the problems of excessive space design or limited space use.
