[0039] Referring to Figure 5 , Figure 5 is Figure 3 the enlarged structural schematic view of the dashed circle frame shown in FIG. 1.

[0040] To solve the above problems, the application provides an electric drive shell 10, which comprises a box body 100 and a motor shell 20. The box body 100 comprises a first part 110 and a second part 120 connected with each other. The first part 110 is formed with a first containing space 111 for containing a power supply 30. The second part 120 is formed with a second containing space 121 for containing a controller 50. The motor shell 20 is located on the outer side of the box body. The motor shell 20 is connected with the second part 120. The projection of the motor shell 20 on the second part 120 covers the projection of the controller 50 on the second part 120. The first part 110 is provided with a first flow channel 130. The first flow channel 130 is in communication with the first containing space 111 and the outer side of the first containing space 111. The second part 120 is provided with a second flow channel 140. The second flow channel 140 is arranged in such a manner that a first port 1421 thereof is covered by the motor shell 20, and a second port 1422 thereof is formed to avoid the motor shell 20. The first port 1421 is in communication with the second containing space 121 and the outer side of the second containing space 121. The second port 1422 is in communication with the first port 1421 and is located between the first port 1421 and the first flow channel 130. The electric drive shell 10 further comprises a connecting cover plate 131 located on the outer side of the box body. The connecting cover plate 131 covers one end of the first flow channel 130 away from the first containing space 111 and one end of the second flow channel 140 away from the second port 1422. The connecting cover plate 131 is connected with the box body 100 to form a communication flow channel 143 in communication with the first flow channel 130 and the second flow channel 140.

[0041] The box body 100 is used for mounting electrical components required by the electric drive assembly 1. The box body 100 comprises the first part 110 and the second part 120 connected with each other. The first part 110 and the second part 120 can be separated by a partition plate and form the first containing space 111 and the second containing space 121. The first containing space 111 is used for mounting the power supply 30. The second containing space 121 is used for mounting the controller 50. The bottom wall of the second part 120 can be higher than the bottom wall of the first part 110, that is, the bottom wall of the first part 110 protrudes from the bottom wall of the second part 120. Thus, the volume of the second part 120 is reduced under the condition that the components in the second part 120 are mounted, so that the volume and weight of the box body are smaller.

[0042] In addition, the electric drive assembly 1 can further comprise a PCB board connected with the controller 50, the PCB board is fixed to the side of the controller 50 away from the first cooling groove 144, and the size of the PCB board in the second direction Y matches the size of the second part 120 in the second direction Y, so as to better fix the PCB board. Since the PCB is thus arranged, in order to ensure the electrical connection between the controller 50 and the PCB board, the projection of the PCB board on the second part 120 covers the projection of the controller 50 on the second part 120, and the controller 50 is spaced apart from the partition in the second accommodating space 121.

[0043] The motor housing 20 can be located on the side of the second part 120 away from the second accommodating space 121, so as to make full use of the smaller size of the second part 120, thereby improving the space utilization of the electric drive housing 10. The projection of the motor housing 20 on the second part 120 is larger than the projection of the controller 50 on the second part 120, that is, in the case that the controller 50 is spaced apart from the partition in the second direction Y, the projection area of the motor housing 20 on the second part 120 is larger than the projection area of the controller 50 on the second part 120. The water channel for dissipating heat of the controller 50 and the water channel for dissipating heat of the power supply 30 are connected, so as to accelerate the circulation speed of the cooling liquid, and the motor housing 20 is located on the side of the second part 120 away from the controller 50, and the space occupied by the motor housing 20 is larger, so as to hinder the connection of the two water channels for dissipating heat of the power supply 30 and the controller 50.

[0044] To solve this problem, the first flow channel 130 can be arranged on the side of the first part 110 away from the power supply 30, and the second flow channel 140 can be arranged on the side of the second part 120 away from the controller 50. The first flow channel 130 can be provided with a first flow channel 130 water inlet, which communicates the first flow channel 130 and the first containing space 111, that is, the first flow channel 130 water inlet penetrates the bottom wall of the first part 110, and the power supply cooling flow channel 40 can be provided with a power supply 30 flow channel outlet, which is connected with the first flow channel 130 water inlet in correspondence, so as to communicate the power supply cooling flow channel 40 and the first flow channel 130. The second part 120 is provided with the second flow channel 140, which is located on the side of the second part 120 away from the controller 50, and the second flow channel 140 is provided with a first port 1421 and a second port 1422. The first port 1421 penetrates the two opposite sides of the second part 120, so as to communicate the second containing space 121 and the outside of the second containing space 121, and the second port 1422 is arranged between the first port 1421 and the second flow channel 140. The second containing space 121 is provided with a first cooling groove 144, and the first port 1421 also penetrates the bottom wall of the first cooling groove 144, so as to communicate the second flow channel 140 and the first cooling groove 144. However, the projection of the first port 1421 on the second part 120 is covered by the motor shell 20, and the second port 1422 also forms an avoidance with the motor shell 20. It can be understood that the projections of the first port 1421 and the second port 1422 on the second part 120 are located on the projection of the motor shell 20 on the second part 120, so that the first flow channel 130 cannot directly extend to the direction of the second port 1422 to be connected with the second port 1422, and is blocked by the motor shell 20. Therefore, the second flow channel 140 is arranged on the side of the first flow channel 130 close to the motor shell 20, so as to communicate the first flow channel 130 and the first cooling groove 144 through the second flow channel 140. The first flow channel 130 further includes a connecting cover plate 131, which covers the side of the first flow channel 130 away from the first containing space 111, so that the first flow channel 130 forms a closed space to circulate the cooling liquid. The connecting cover plate 131 also covers the end of the second flow channel 140 away from the second port 1422, so that the end of the second flow channel 140 away from the second port 1422 is partially located in the first flow channel 130, and the part is provided with a communication flow channel 143 to communicate the first flow channel 130 and the second flow channel 140. The second flow channel 140 can be partially located in the first flow channel 130, so that only a small opening needs to be opened between the first flow channel 130 and the second flow channel 140 after they are integrally casted, so as to communicate them. Of course, the second flow channel 140 can also not be located in the first flow channel 130, and a larger opening in the second direction Y can be opened between the first flow channel 130 and the second flow channel 140 to communicate them.

[0045] The first flow channel 130 is located on the side of the first part 110 away from the accommodating space. Since the motor housing 20 is cylindrical, there is a gap between the outside of the motor housing 20 and the first part 110 and the second part 120. The second flow channel 140 can then extend towards the motor housing 20 and form an avoidance with the motor housing 20, so that the first flow channel 130 is partially located on the side of the second part 120 away from the controller 50, but the first flow channel 130 and the first port 1421 still have a first distance due to the blockage of the motor housing 20. The bottom wall of the second part 120 is higher than the bottom wall of the first part 110, so that the part of the first flow channel 130 located on the second part 120 has a larger internal space than the part located on the first part 110. Connecting the second flow channel 140 and the first flow channel 130 located on the second part 120 can make the size of the communication flow channel 143 larger, so that the flow of the cooling liquid is larger, and the cooling effect is better.

[0046] Through the above embodiment, the second flow channel 140 can communicate the first flow channel 130 blocked by the motor housing 20 and the second accommodating space 121, and the first flow channel 130 can communicate the second flow channel 140 and the first accommodating space 111, so that the first flow channel 130 and the second flow channel 140 jointly communicate the first accommodating space 111 and the second accommodating space 121, which simplifies the structure of the water channel and improves the heat dissipation efficiency.

[0047] Referring to Figure 6 , Figure 6 is Figure 2 a structural schematic view of an embodiment of the box body.

[0048] In some embodiments, the second flow channel 140 includes a first columnar flow channel 141 and a second columnar flow channel 142, the second columnar flow channel 142 being in communication with the first columnar flow channel 141 and the second containing space 121, the first columnar flow channel 141 being arranged to extend in the first direction X, and the first columnar flow channel 141 being provided with a third port 1411 at one end thereof in the first direction X, the third port 1411 being in communication with the inside and outside of the first columnar flow channel 141. The first direction X can be understood as a direction perpendicular to the connection of the first part 110 and the second part 120. The first columnar flow channel 141 is arranged to extend in the first direction X, and the end of the first columnar flow channel 141 in the first direction X is provided with the third port 1411, and the third port 1411 is in communication with the inside and outside of the first columnar flow channel 141, so that the first columnar flow channel 141 can be integrally cast during casting molding, and only a latch protruding in the first direction X relative to the mold itself needs to be arranged on the mold, and the mold is poured, and the first columnar flow channel 141 can be formed. Since the first columnar flow channel 141 is arranged along the first direction X. Therefore, the second columnar flow channel 142 needs to be arranged to connect the first cooling groove 144 and the first columnar flow channel 141, and the second columnar flow channel 142 is provided with a first port 1421 and a second port 1422 at two ends thereof, respectively, and the second port 1422 penetrates the wall of the first columnar flow channel 141 away from the first flow channel 130 to communicate the first columnar flow channel 141 and the second columnar flow channel 142. Of course, the first columnar flow channel 141 can also be arranged to extend along other directions, and the present scheme extends along the first direction X in order to avoid the motor housing 20. If there are other components or structures blocking in the first direction X, the first columnar flow channel 141 can also be arranged to extend along other directions to form an avoidance.

[0049] In some embodiments, the first columnar flow channel 141 is circular in cross section and extends in the first direction X to form a cylindrical shape. The first columnar flow channel 141 is provided with a liquid seal plug at one end near the third port 1411, which is in interference fit with the third port 1411. The cross section of the channel inside the first columnar flow channel 141 allowing the flow of cooling liquid can be circular. The first columnar flow channel 141 with a circular cross section extends in the first direction X to form a cylindrical flow channel, so that the first columnar flow channel 141 has a larger internal space for the same volume, thereby allowing more cooling liquid to be contained for the same material and space occupancy, and thus improving the cooling efficiency. The first columnar flow channel 141 is also provided with a liquid seal plug, which can be a "bowl-shaped plug". The liquid seal plug can be in interference fit with the third port 1411 with a circular cross section to block the third port 1411. If the third port 1411 has other shapes, the bowl-shaped plug cannot directly block the third port 1411, and a cover plate must be used to block the third port 1411 by welding. Therefore, the third port 1411 is circular, which can also reduce the manufacturing process flow of the electric drive housing 10, thereby improving the manufacturing efficiency and reducing the cost.

[0050] In some embodiments, the electric drive housing 10 includes a first cooling groove 144 located in the second accommodating space 121 corresponding to the position of the controller 50. The first cooling groove 144 is in communication with the second columnar flow channel 142, the groove opening of the first cooling groove 144 faces the controller 50, and the side wall of the first cooling groove 144 is vertically arranged. The first cooling groove 144 is located in the second accommodating space 121, and the first cooling groove 144 can be fixed to the side of the second part 120 away from the motor housing 20, and the position of the first cooling groove 144 corresponds to the position of the controller 50. The groove opening of the first cooling groove 144 faces the controller 50, so that the first cooling groove 144 can directly contact the controller 50 to dissipate heat for the controller 50, without the need to set an additional cover plate to close the first cooling groove 144 and then set the controller 50 on the cover plate to dissipate heat for the controller 50. Directly connecting the first cooling groove 144 with the controller 50 can improve the heat dissipation efficiency and also improve the production efficiency of the electric drive housing 10. In addition, the side wall of the first cooling groove 144 can be understood as the groove wall of the periphery of the first cooling groove 144, and the side wall of the first cooling groove 144 is vertically arranged, so that after the first cooling groove 144 is integrally cast and formed, it is ensured that the mold can be smoothly removed, thereby improving the production efficiency of the electric drive housing 10.

[0051] In some embodiments, the second columnar flow channel 142 extends in the vertical direction Z, and the first port 1421 and the second port 1422 are respectively located at two ends of the second columnar flow channel 142. The second port 1422 penetrates the wall of the first columnar flow channel 141 away from the communication flow channel 143, and the first port 1421 communicates the inside of the first cooling groove 144 and the second flow channel 140. The second columnar flow channel 142 extends in the vertical direction Z and communicates with the first cooling groove 144 and the first columnar flow channel 141 in the first direction X, respectively. The second port 1422 and the first port 1421 are respectively located at two ends of the second columnar flow channel 142, and the first port 1421 penetrates the bottom wall of the first cooling groove 144, thereby communicating the first cooling groove 144 and the second columnar flow channel 142. When the second columnar flow channel 142 is cast and formed, the plug can be arranged on the bottom wall of the first cooling groove 144, so that the second columnar flow channel 142 can be integrally cast and formed, and the second port 1422 is arranged at one end of the second columnar flow channel 142 close to the first columnar flow channel 141, so as to communicate the first columnar flow channel 141 and the second columnar flow channel 142. Therefore, the second columnar flow channel 142 extends in the vertical direction Z, so that the second flow channel 140 can be integrally cast and formed, and the generation efficiency of the electric drive shell 10 can be improved. The spacing distance of the first flow channel 130 and the first cooling groove 144 can cooperate with the radial dimension of the second flow channel 140, so that the second flow channel 140 can be directly formed by integral casting. Therefore, the second flow channel 140 can be integrally cast and formed, and at the same time, due to the appropriate distance between the first columnar flow channel 141 and the first flow channel 130, and the small size of the communication flow channel 143 for connecting the first flow channel 130 and the second flow channel 140, the molding time of the communication flow channel 143 can be reduced.

[0052] Referring to Figure 7 and Figure 8 , Figure 7 is Figure 3 the enlarged structural schematic view of the implementation of the circular frame. Figure 8 is a structural schematic view of an embodiment of the electric drive shell provided by the present application.

[0053] In some embodiments, the electric drive housing 10 comprises a water outlet channel 145, the water outlet channel 145 comprises a first water outlet channel 1451 and a second water outlet channel 1452, the first water outlet channel 1451 is arranged to extend in the second direction Y, one end of the first water outlet channel 1451 is connected to the first cooling groove 144 away from the first port 1421, the other end of the first water outlet channel 1451 is connected to the outside of the first part 110, the second water outlet channel 1452 is arranged to extend in the vertical direction Z, one end of the second water outlet channel 1452 is connected to the first water outlet channel 1451 away from the first cooling groove 144, the motor housing 20 is provided with a third water outlet channel 210 extending in the first direction X, the third water outlet channel 210 extends to the end of the motor housing 20 in the first direction X, the other end of the second water outlet channel 1452 is connected to the third water outlet channel 210. The electric drive housing 10 is provided with a water outlet channel 145, one end of the water outlet channel 145 is connected to the first cooling groove away from the second port 1422, the other end of the water outlet channel 145 is connected to the outside of the electric drive housing 10 and can be connected to the cooling circulating component to cool and circulate the cooling liquid for heat dissipation. The water outlet channel 145 comprises the first water outlet channel 1451 and the second water outlet channel 1452, because the gap between the first cooling groove 144 and the motor housing 20 is small. Therefore, one end of the first water outlet channel 1451 is connected to the first cooling groove 144 away from the first port 1421 and arranged to extend in the second direction Y, one end of the second water outlet channel 1452 is connected to the first water outlet channel 1451 away from the first cooling groove 144, the other end of the second water outlet channel 1452 is arranged to extend in the vertical direction Z to redirect the water outlet channel 145. The end of the second water outlet channel 1452 away from the first water outlet channel 1451 is blocked by the motor housing 20, therefore, the motor housing 20 is also provided with a third water outlet channel 210 arranged in the first direction X, so that one end of the third water outlet channel 210 is connected to the second water outlet channel 1452, the other end of the third water outlet channel 210 is arranged to extend in the first direction X to discharge the cooling liquid, which can also be connected to the cooling circulating component located at the end of the motor housing 20 away from the second water outlet channel 1452. The first water outlet channel 1451, the second water outlet channel 1452 and the third water outlet channel 210 are arranged to extend in the second direction Y, the vertical direction Z and the first direction X respectively, in addition to guiding the cooling liquid out of or into the cooling circulating component, the first water outlet channel 1451, the second water outlet channel 1452 and the third water outlet channel 210 can also be integrally casted, thereby improving the production efficiency of the electric drive housing 10.

[0054] In some embodiments, as Figure 6As shown, the first flow channel 130 includes a second cooling groove 132, the groove opening of the second cooling groove 132 is directed away from the first accommodating space 111, and the groove wall of the second cooling groove 132 is vertically arranged. In the figure, the second cooling groove 132 is covered by the connecting cover plate 131, the second cooling groove 132 and the first cooling groove 144 are arranged similarly, the groove opening of the second cooling groove 132 is arranged in the vertical direction Z away from the first accommodating space 111, and the groove wall of the second cooling groove 132 is also vertically arranged, so that the second cooling groove 132 can be integrally cast and formed, the connecting cover plate 131 is arranged on the groove opening of the second cooling groove 132 to be sealingly connected with the second cooling groove 132, and then the connecting cover plate 131 and the second cooling groove 132 are tightly matched to form a sealed first flow channel 130.

[0055] In this way, the electric drive housing 10 can be integrally cast and formed, and only the connecting cover plate 131 needs to be welded on the groove opening of the second cooling groove 132 to complete the manufacturing of the electric drive housing 10. This structure is simple and has a relatively fast production efficiency.

[0056] In summary, the second flow channel 140 can communicate the first flow channel 130 blocked by the motor housing 20 and the second accommodating space 121, the first flow channel 130 can communicate the second flow channel 140 and the first accommodating space 111, so that the first flow channel 130 and the second flow channel 140 jointly communicate the first accommodating space 111 and the second accommodating space 121, which simplifies the structure of the flow channel and can improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
