AI Technical Summary
Existing car refrigerators cannot continue to cool after the car stops and starts, making it inconvenient for users to store items that need to be refrigerated.
A centralized cold storage vehicle refrigerator system is adopted, which includes a vehicle thermal management system, a cold storage unit, an evaporator, a second condenser, and a refrigerator. By forming a closed-loop structure, the cold storage unit continues to provide cooling capacity to maintain the refrigerator's cooling function when the vehicle is stopped.
This technology enables the refrigerator to continue cooling for an extended period even after the car has stopped and started, thus meeting users' storage needs.

[0021] Reference Figures 1 to 2 A centralized cold storage vehicle-mounted refrigerator system includes: a vehicle-mounted thermal management system 1 and a cold storage unit 2. The cold storage unit 2 is connected to the vehicle-mounted thermal management system 1. The cold storage unit 2 includes an evaporator 21 and a second condenser 22. The evaporator 21 is connected to a first condenser 13 and a thermal management system outlet pipe 15. The system also includes a refrigerator 4, which is connected to the second condenser 22 to form a closed loop. During the downtime of the vehicle-mounted thermal management system 1, the second condenser 22 retains a portion of the cold energy absorbed from the evaporator 21. Therefore, the cold storage unit 2 can continue to provide cooling energy to the refrigerator 4, enabling the refrigerator 4 to continue cooling. Thus, the refrigerator 4 can continue to cool even after the vehicle has stopped and started.
[0022] In a preferred embodiment, the vehicle-mounted thermal management system 1 includes a liquid receiver 11 for storing refrigerant, a compressor 12 connected to the liquid receiver 11, a first condenser 13 connected to the compressor 12, a cold storage unit 2 connected to the first condenser 13, and a thermal management system inlet pipe 14 and a thermal management system outlet pipe 15. The thermal management system inlet pipe 14 is connected to the first condenser 13, and the thermal management system outlet pipe 15 is connected to the liquid receiver 11.
[0023] In a preferred embodiment, the cold storage unit 2 absorbs and stores heat through an evaporator.
[0024] In a preferred embodiment, the cold accumulator 2 contains a cold storage liquid, which is a solid-liquid mixture. Through the phase change process of the solid-liquid mixture, the effect of absorbing heat at low temperatures and releasing heat at high temperatures can be achieved.
[0025] In a preferred embodiment, an electronic expansion valve 3 is also included. The electronic expansion valve 3 is disposed between the first condenser 13 and the cold storage 2. The electronic expansion valve 3 is used to regulate the refrigerant flow pressure, so that the refrigerant is throttled and depressurized to reach the pressure required by the evaporator in the cold storage 2.
[0026] In a preferred embodiment, the refrigerator 4 includes a first refrigerator 411 and a second refrigerator 412 connected in parallel. There are multiple refrigerators 4, which can be installed in the front row, rear row, trunk, or other locations of a car.
