[0033] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2This embodiment provides a long-range fuel cell tractor 100, including a frame 101 and a cab 200, a trailer 300, a hydrogen supply system 120, a fuel cell system 130, and a high-voltage combination module 140.

The hydrogen supply system 120 includes a plurality of hydrogen cylinders, which are stacked in sequence in a vertical direction between the cab 200 and the trailer 300. The fuel cell system 130 is arranged between the cab 200 and the frame 101, and has a preset front turning interval of the trailer 300 with the cab 200; the fuel cell system 130 is arranged between the cab 200 and the frame 101, and the fuel cell system 130 is connected to the hydrogen supply system 120; the high-pressure combination module 140 includes an integrated controller 142 and a high-pressure box 141 connected to each other, and the integrated controller 142 and the high-pressure box 141 are arranged on either side of the frame 101; the fuel cell system 130 and the high-pressure box 141 are electrically connected to the integrated controller 142 respectively.

[0034] Specifically, the present application provides a long-range fuel cell tractor 100, such as Figure 1 As shown, it includes a frame 101 that serves as a load-bearing structure, a cab 200 and a trailer 300 spaced apart on the frame 101, and wheels spaced apart on both sides of the frame 101. The frame 101 disposed below the cab 200 and the frame 101 disposed below the trailer 300 may be two separate and independent frames.

[0035] The long-range fuel cell tractor 100 also includes a hydrogen supply system 120, a fuel cell system 130, and a high-voltage combination module 140. The hydrogen supply system 120 includes a plurality of hydrogen cylinders, preferably eight hydrogen cylinders, each with a capacity greater than 385 liters, to maximize the hydrogen supply of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 and thereby increase the mileage of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100. Of course, this application does not impose any restrictions on the specific volume and number of hydrogen cylinders. If the volume of the hydrogen cylinders is small, the number of hydrogen cylinders can be increased accordingly, as long as the arrangement of the multiple hydrogen cylinders does not affect the wheelbase and front slewing of the vehicle, while effectively increasing the range.

[0036] Among them, Figure 1 As shown, multiple hydrogen cylinders are stacked in sequence along the vertical direction between the cab 200 and the trailer 300 to improve space utilization; at the same time, the hydrogen cylinders and the cab 200 have a preset rotation interval in front of the trailer 300 to ensure that the cab 200 has sufficient rotation space.

[0037] The hydrogen supply system 120 is closely connected to the fuel cell system 130 via a pipeline as a supply source of hydrogen, and can deliver the stored hydrogen to the fuel cell system 130. The hydrogen undergoes a chemical reaction in the fuel cell system 130.

[0038] The fuel cell system 130 converts the chemical energy generated by the reaction of hydrogen and oxygen extracted from the air into electrical energy, powering the vehicle's motor and other high-voltage electrical equipment, thereby driving the vehicle. The fuel cell system 130 includes multiple fuel cells, which are arranged side by side to improve the efficiency and power of electricity generation. The fuel cell system 130 is located in the area between the cab 200 and the frame 101, improving the space utilization of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100. By flipping the cab 200, the fuel cell system 130 located below the cab 200 can be exposed, facilitating repair and maintenance of the fuel cell system 130.

[0039] Please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 4 The high-voltage combination module 140 includes an integrated controller 142 and a high-voltage box 141 connected to each other. The fuel cell system 130 and the high-voltage box 141 are electrically connected to the integrated controller 142 respectively; the high-voltage box 141 is responsible for storing and distributing the electrical energy generated by the fuel cell system 130, so as to transmit the electrical energy to various high-voltage electrical equipment of the vehicle in the form of appropriate voltage and current. At the same time, it can also detect the status of the power battery; and the integrated controller is used for power output connection.

[0040] Among them, the integrated controller 142 and the high-voltage box 141 of the high-voltage combination module 140 are arranged on either side of the frame 101, making the high-voltage wiring harness shorter and smoother; at the same time, the high-voltage wiring harness is separated from the low-voltage wiring harness, thereby improving electrical reliability.

[0041] It should be noted that, in one embodiment of the present application, first, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 In order to further improve the endurance of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 further includes a hydrogen cylinder assembly 150 to further improve the hydrogen storage capacity of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100. The hydrogen cylinder assembly 150 is connected to the fuel cell system 130 through a pipeline; wherein, Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the hydrogen cylinder assembly 150 is arranged close to the hydrogen supply system 120 and is located on the side of the frame 101 away from the high-pressure combination module 140. The hydrogen cylinder assemblies 150 are symmetrically distributed on opposite sides of the frame 101 and are arranged under the trailer 300, and the two hydrogen cylinder assemblies 150 are connected.

[0042] This arrangement not only increases the hydrogen storage capacity of the vehicle and improves its cruising range, but also allows the hydrogen cylinder assembly 150 to be hung on the outside of the vehicle frame 101, thereby improving maintenance convenience.

[0043] Second, if Figure 4 As shown, the high-voltage combination module 140 also includes a second bracket 143, the second bracket 143 includes a second body 1431 and a second connecting arm 1432 arranged on the side of the second body 1431, the second body 1431 is connected to the frame 101 through the second connecting arm 1432, and the second connecting arm 1432 is arranged perpendicular to the frame 101; the second body 1431 includes two placement layers stacked in the vertical direction, and the integrated controller 142 and the high-voltage box 141 are respectively arranged in the two placement layers.

[0044] Specifically, in order to improve the connection stability between the integrated controller 142 and the high-voltage box 141 and the vehicle frame 101, as shown in FIG. Figure 4 As shown, the high-voltage combination module 140 also includes a second bracket 143, the second bracket 143 includes a second body 1431 and a second connecting arm 1432 arranged on the side edge of the second body 1431, and the second connecting arm 1432 provides an installation point for the second body 1431, so that the structure is simple and lightweight; the second body 1431 includes two placement layers stacked in a vertical direction, and the integrated controller 142 and the high-voltage box 141 are respectively arranged in the two placement layers, and the wiring harness interfaces of the integrated controller 142 and the high-voltage box 141 are both facing the outside of the vehicle and the direction of vehicle operation, which is more convenient for maintenance.

[0045] Third, if Figure 2 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 further includes a motor heat dissipation module 110A and a battery cooling module 110B. The motor heat dissipation module 110A and the battery cooling module 110B are arranged at the periphery of the fuel cell system 130. The motor heat dissipation module 110A is used to dissipate heat for the motor, motor controller and integrated controller of the entire vehicle, and the battery cooling module 110B is used to dissipate heat for the power battery pack of the entire vehicle. The motor heat dissipation module 110A and the battery cooling module 110B and the fuel cell system 130 are all arranged between the cab 200 and the frame 101. While saving space utilization, by flipping the cab 200, the motor heat dissipation module 110A and the battery cooling module 110B arranged under the cab 200 can be exposed, so as to facilitate repair and maintenance of the motor heat dissipation module 110A and the battery cooling module 110B.

[0046] The present application provides a long-range fuel cell tractor 100, comprising a frame 101 and a cab 200, a trailer 300, a hydrogen supply system 120, a fuel cell system 130 and a high-voltage combination module 140 arranged on the frame 101; the cab 200 is flippably arranged at the end of the frame 101, so as to facilitate the repair and maintenance of the components at the bottom of the cab 200; the trailer 300 is spaced apart from the cab 200 for loading cargo; the hydrogen supply system 120 comprises a plurality of hydrogen cylinders, which are stacked in sequence between the cab 200 and the trailer 300 in a vertical direction, and can effectively utilize the space between the cab 200 and the trailer 300 to improve space utilization; and the hydrogen cylinders and the cab 200 have a preset front rotation interval of the trailer 300 to ensure the front rotation of the entire vehicle; the fuel cell system 130 comprises a plurality of hydrogen cylinders, which are stacked in sequence between the cab 200 and the trailer 300 in a vertical direction, and can effectively utilize the space between the cab 200 and the trailer 300 to improve space utilization; and the hydrogen cylinders and the cab 200 have a preset front rotation interval of the trailer 300 to ensure the front rotation of the entire vehicle; The vehicle comprises a plurality of fuel cells arranged side by side between the cab 200 and the vehicle frame 101. The fuel cell system 130 is connected to the hydrogen supply system 120 to ensure that hydrogen is smoothly transported from the hydrogen supply system 120 to the fuel cells, providing power for the vehicle's travel. The high-voltage assembly module 140 includes an integrated controller 142 and a high-voltage box 141, which are connected to each other. The integrated controller 142 and the high-voltage box 141 are arranged on either side of the vehicle frame 101, so that the main high-voltage components of the vehicle are arranged on the same side of the vehicle frame 101, which can facilitate disassembly, wiring, and maintenance. At the same time, they can also be separated from the low-voltage wiring harness to improve electrical reliability. The fuel cell system 130 and the high-voltage box 141 are respectively electrically connected to the integrated controller 142, which is used for power connection output to improve the reliability and safety of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100. The long-range fuel cell tractor 100 can effectively increase the driving range while ensuring the forward rotation of the vehicle. The layout structure improves the convenience of assembly and maintenance.

[0047] For example, Figure 1 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 also includes a stack heat dissipation module 160, which is arranged on the top of the hydrogen supply system 120; the stack heat dissipation module 160 includes a connected coolant pipe, which is used to pass coolant; the stack heat dissipation module 160 is connected to the fuel cell system 130 through the coolant pipe.

[0048] Specifically, if Figure 1 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 of the present application rationally utilizes the space of the vehicle by placing the stack heat dissipation module 160 on the top of the hydrogen supply system 120, making the overall structure of the vehicle more compact and regular; at the same time, arranging the stack heat dissipation module 160 on the top of the hydrogen supply system 120 is also beneficial to heat exchange between the heat dissipation module and the surrounding environment, thereby improving the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0049] Since the fuel cell generates a large amount of heat during operation, in order to ensure the performance and efficiency of the fuel cell, extend the service life of the fuel cell, and ensure the safe and stable operation of the system, the stack heat dissipation module 160 can be connected to the fuel cell system 130 through a coolant pipe, and the coolant can circulate along the coolant pipe to flow through the fuel cell system 130 and take away the heat generated by the fuel cell.

[0050] Optionally, the stack heat dissipation module 160 may further include a radiator, which can be arranged at the periphery of the coolant pipe to dissipate heat from the coolant in the coolant pipe and improve heat dissipation efficiency.

[0051] In one embodiment of the present application, Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 also includes a power battery pack 170, which is arranged in the middle of the frame 101 and located on the side of the hydrogen supply system 120 facing the frame 101; the power battery pack 170 includes a first battery pack 171, which is electrically connected to the high-voltage box 141.

[0052] Specifically, in order to ensure that the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 has sufficient kinetic energy, as Figure 2 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 also includes a power battery pack 170, which can provide power together with the fuel cell system 130 to enhance the vehicle's power performance; in the event of a failure of the fuel cell system 130 or insufficient hydrogen supply, the power battery pack 170 can serve as an emergency power supply to provide electrical energy for the vehicle's key equipment, thereby increasing the vehicle's reliability and safety.

[0053] The power battery pack 170 is arranged in the middle of the frame 101 and is located on the side of the hydrogen supply system 120 facing the frame 101, which can make the weight distribution of the vehicle more uniform; Figure 6 As shown, the power battery pack 170 includes a first battery pack 171 , which is electrically connected to the high-voltage box 141 for transmitting electric energy. The high-voltage box 141 can store, distribute and regulate the electric energy from the first battery pack 171 .

[0054] The present application does not impose any limitation on the specific number of the first battery packs 171. For example, Figure 6 As shown, there are two first battery packs 171, which are stacked. Of course, the number of first battery packs 171 can also be one, three, etc., and can be adjusted accordingly based on the required power value of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100.

[0055] It should be noted that, in one embodiment of the present application, Figure 6As shown, the power battery pack 170 also includes a bracket 172 and four connecting frames 173. The four connecting frames 173 are respectively arranged on opposite sides of the bracket 172, and the two connecting frames 173 on the same side are arranged at intervals. The frame 101 includes two parallel and spaced-apart beams 1011. The bracket 172 is fixedly connected to the two beams 1011 through the four connecting frames 173. The first battery pack 171 is placed on the bracket 172. A rubber shock-absorbing pad 174 is provided between the connecting frame 173 and the bracket 172.

[0056] Specifically, when assembling the long-range fuel cell tractor 100, the connecting frame 173 and the rubber shock-absorbing pads 174 are first respectively assembled at the installation points of the two crossbeams 1011 of the frame 101 to enhance the structural stability. The rubber shock-absorbing pads 174 can effectively absorb and cushion these vibrations; at the same time, the bracket 172 and the first battery pack 171 are sub-assembled; by hoisting the above-mentioned sub-assembly and dropping it on the four rubber shock-absorbing pads 174, it can be quickly disassembled and assembled with the frame 101, thereby improving the convenience of disassembly and assembly of the power battery pack 170.

[0057] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 further includes a battery assembly module 180 . The battery assembly module 180 is disposed on a side edge of the vehicle frame 101 and arranged side by side with the high-voltage assembly module 140 .

[0058] Specifically, if Figure 2 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 also includes a battery assembly module 180. The battery assembly module 180 is arranged on the side edge of the frame 101 and is arranged side by side with the high-voltage assembly module 140, so that the main high-voltage components of the entire vehicle are arranged on the outside of the frame 101, making the high-voltage wiring harness shorter and smoother; at the same time, the high-voltage wiring harness is separated from the low-voltage wiring harness, thereby improving electrical reliability.

[0059] It should be noted that, in one embodiment of the present application, Figure 5As shown, the battery combination module 180 includes a mid-axle electric drive controller 181 and a rear-axle electric drive controller 182; the battery combination module 180 also includes a first bracket 183, a low-voltage lithium-ion battery 184 and a second battery pack 185; the second battery pack 185 is connected in parallel with the first battery pack 171 and is electrically connected to the high-voltage box 141; the low-voltage lithium-ion battery 184 is electrically connected to the integrated controller 142; the first bracket 183 includes a first body 1831 and a first connecting arm 1832 arranged on the side edge of the first body 1831, the first body 1831 is connected to the frame 101 through the first connecting arm 1832, and the first connecting arm 1832 is arranged perpendicular to the frame 101; the first body 1831 includes a plurality of placement layers stacked in a vertical direction, and the mid-axle electric drive controller 181, the rear-axle electric drive controller 182, the low-voltage lithium-ion battery 184 and the second battery pack 185 are respectively placed in the placement layers.

[0060] The mid-axle electric drive controller 181 and the rear-axle electric drive controller 182 are primarily responsible for power distribution and regulation, as well as power output control, and are connected to the second battery pack 185 . The battery assembly module 180 also includes a second battery pack 185 , which is connected in parallel with the first battery pack 171 to further increase the kinetic energy of the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 . The low-voltage lithium-ion battery 184 is electrically connected to the integrated controller 142 to provide low voltage for the vehicle's control system, instruments, and other low-voltage equipment, ensuring that the vehicle can start normally.

[0061] like Figure 5 As shown, the battery assembly module 180 also includes a first bracket 183, which includes a first body 1831 and a first connecting arm 1832 disposed on the side of the first body 1831. The first bracket 183 mounts the first body 1831 on the vehicle frame 101 via the first connecting arm 1832, with the first body 1831 disposed outward. The first body 1831 includes multiple vertically stacked placement layers, with the mid-axle electric drive controller 181, rear-axle electric drive controller 182, low-voltage lithium-ion battery 184, and second battery pack 185 respectively placed within the placement layers. This arrangement improves the overall structural integration and facilitates the assembly, disassembly, and maintenance of the battery assembly module 180.

[0062] For example, Figure 2 As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor 100 further includes a brake combination module 190, which is arranged on the frame 101 and located between the hydrogen supply system 120 and the trailer 300. The top of the brake combination module 190 is unobstructed.

[0063] Specifically, if Figure 2As shown, the long-range fuel cell tractor brake assembly module 190 effectively controls the vehicle's speed, bringing it to a smooth stop. Brake assembly module 190 is mounted on the vehicle frame 101 and located between the hydrogen supply system 120 and the trailer 300. Because brake assembly module 190 is unobstructed by other components, it improves space utilization while also enhancing the reliability and convenience of brake assembly module 190 maintenance.

[0064] It should be noted that, in one embodiment of the present application, Figure 7 As shown, the brake combination module 190 includes a welding bracket 193, and the two sides of the welding bracket 193 are fixedly connected to the two cross beams 1011 respectively; the brake combination module 190 includes a connected brake air compressor 191 and an air cylinder assembly 192, the brake air compressor 191 is placed on the top surface of the welding bracket 193, and the air cylinder assembly 192 is placed on the side of the welding bracket 193 away from the brake air compressor 191.

[0065] Specifically, the brake combination module 190 includes a connected brake air compressor 191 and an air cylinder assembly 192. The air cylinder assembly 192 is mainly used to store compressed air delivered by the brake air compressor 191. The brake air compressor 191 can inhale and compress air, and the compressed air is delivered to the air cylinder assembly 192 through pipelines.

[0066] When the driver depresses the brake pedal, the compressed air within reservoir assembly 192 is distributed to the various brake actuators through pipes, valves, and other components, as controlled by integrated controller 142. Once the compressed air enters the brake chamber, it pushes the piston or other actuator within the chamber, generating significant friction and thus braking the vehicle.

[0067] like Figure 7 As shown, the brake combination module 190 also includes a welding bracket 193, and the two sides of the welding bracket 193 are fixedly connected to the two beams 1011 to form a reliable structure, while improving the integration of the brake combination module 190 and improving space utilization through the setting of the bracket.

[0068] The above description is merely an optional embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Those skilled in the art will readily appreciate that the present invention is susceptible to various modifications and variations. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, or improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention shall be included within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0069] It should also be noted that the various specific technical features described in the above specific embodiments can be combined in any appropriate manner without contradiction. In order to avoid unnecessary repetition, the present invention will not further describe various possible combinations.
