[0026] A detailed description of specific embodiments of the present application is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0027] As Figures 1 to 3 shown, embodiments of the present application provide a thermal management system 100 applied to a vehicle 200. The thermal management system 100 includes a supply air main line 10, a supply air branch line 20, and a refrigeration branch line 30.
[0028] The supply air main line 10 is configured to deliver an air flow to at least an in-vehicle space of the vehicle 200. The in-vehicle space of the vehicle 200 refers to a space within the vehicle 200 for an occupant to sit. The vehicle 200 is provided with a plurality of air outlets 7 that are in communication with the in-vehicle space to deliver the air flow to the in-vehicle space through the air outlets 7. The plurality of air outlets 7 can be provided at different locations of the vehicle 200 to deliver the air flow to different areas of the in-vehicle space.
[0029] The supply air main line 10 is configured to deliver an air flow to at least an in-vehicle space of the vehicle 200. The refrigeration branch line 30 is configured to deliver a cold air flow to a heat generating component 50 of the vehicle 200. The air intake end of the supply air branch line 20 and the air intake end of the refrigeration branch line 30 are in parallel communication with the supply air main line 10 to provide the supply air main line 10 with the air flow, and the supply air branch line 20 is configured to deliver the air flow provided by the supply air main line 10 to the heat generating component 50 of the vehicle 200.
[0030] Therefore, in the heat management system 100, the air supply branch 20 and the refrigeration branch 30 are connected in parallel on the air supply main line 10, and the air supply branch 20 and the refrigeration branch 30 are used to deliver air flow to the heat generating component 50, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the heat generating component 50. Compared with the method of installing a corresponding fan in the space where the heat generating component 50 is installed to dissipate heat, the method of using remote air flow to dissipate heat of the heat generating component 50 can not only improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat generating component 50, but also dissipate heat of the heat generating component 50 by using the original heat dissipation flow channel of the vehicle 200 through the external branch.
[0031] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment, along the flow direction of the air flow in the air supply main line 10, the air supply main line 10 is sequentially provided with the air supply part 11 and the refrigeration part 12.
[0032] The air supply part 11 can be an air supply device such as a blower, which can guide the air flow to flow faster to the refrigeration part 12. The refrigeration part 12 is a device such as an evaporator, which can cool the air flow flowing therethrough. The air supply branch 20 is connected in parallel with the air flow path of the refrigeration part 12 at the air outlet end of the air supply part 11, so that the air flow flowing out of the air outlet end of the air supply part 11 can flow to the refrigeration part 12 and the air supply branch 20, respectively. The refrigeration branch 30 is connected to the air outlet end of the refrigeration part 12, so that the air flow cooled by the refrigeration part 12 can flow to the refrigeration branch 30.
[0033] Therefore, the heat management system 100 can deliver air flow to the air supply branch 20 through the air supply part 11, thereby increasing the flow rate of the air flow and improving the heat dissipation efficiency. The refrigeration branch 30 can deliver cold air flow flowing out of the refrigeration part 12 to the heat generating component 50, thereby further improving the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 In an embodiment, the heat management system 100 further includes a first air inlet branch 80 and a second air inlet branch 90, which are connected in parallel to the air inlet end of the air supply main line 10. The air outlet end of the first air inlet branch 80 is connected to the air inlet end of the air supply main line 10, so that the outside air of the vehicle 200 is delivered to the air supply main line 10 through the first air inlet branch 80. The air outlet end of the second air inlet branch 90 is connected to the air inlet end of the air supply main line 10, so that the inside air of the vehicle 200 is delivered to the air supply main line 10 through the second air inlet branch 90.
[0035] In the embodiment, the thermal management system 100 further comprises a sixth flow adjusting structure 6, which is arranged at the communication position of the outflow end of the first air inlet branch 80, the outflow end of the second air inlet branch 90, and the air inlet end of the air supply trunk 10, and is used to adjust the flow of the outside air from the first air inlet branch 80 to the air supply trunk 10 and the flow of the inside air from the second air inlet branch 90 to the air supply trunk 10. The sixth flow adjusting structure 6 can be a damper, and specifically an electronic damper.
[0036] It can be understood that, by adjusting the sixth flow adjusting structure 6, the present application can open the first air inlet branch 80 and block the second air inlet branch 90, so as to supply the air supply trunk 10 with only outside air. By adjusting the sixth flow adjusting structure 6, the present application can also block the first air inlet branch 80 and open the second air inlet branch 90, so as to supply the air supply trunk 10 with only inside air. By adjusting the sixth flow adjusting structure 6, the present application can also open the first air inlet branch 80 and the second air inlet branch 90 at the same time, so as to supply the air supply trunk 10 with outside air and inside air at the same time, and can adjust the proportion of outside air and inside air in the air flow flowing to the air supply trunk 10 by adjusting the sixth flow adjusting structure 6.
[0037] Please also refer to Figure 1 In an embodiment, the thermal management system 100 further comprises a first flow adjusting structure 1. The first flow adjusting structure 1 is arranged at the outflow end of the air supply member 11, and specifically at the communication position of the outflow end of the air supply member 11, the air inlet end of the refrigeration member 12, and the air inlet end of the air supply branch 20, so as to distribute the flow of the air flow from the outflow end of the air supply member 11 to the refrigeration member 12 and the air supply branch 20 through the first flow adjusting structure 1. The first flow adjusting structure 1 can be a damper, and specifically an electronic damper.
[0038] In addition, by connecting the air inlet end of the air supply branch 20 to the outflow end of the air supply member 11, the present application can increase the flow rate of the air flow flowing to the air supply branch 20 by using the air supply member 11, so as to improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0039] When the refrigeration member 12 is in a working state, the present application can block the air supply branch 20 by the first flow adjusting structure 1, so that the air flow flowing out of the air supply member 11 is only delivered to the refrigeration member 12, and then the flow of the air flow flowing to the heat generating component 50 and the air flow flowing to the inside space of the vehicle is distributed after the refrigeration member 12 cools the air flow.
[0040] When the refrigeration component 12 is in the non-working state, the application can open the air supply branch 20 through the first flow adjusting structure 1, so that the air flow flowing out of the air supply component 11 can flow to the refrigeration component 12 and the air supply branch 20 at the same time. In addition, based on the heat dissipation demand of the heat generating component 50 and the heat dissipation demand of the vehicle interior space, the application can distribute the flow of the air flow flowing from the air supply component 11 to the heat generating component 50 and to the vehicle interior space through the first flow adjusting structure 1.
[0041] In the embodiment, the air supply component 11 is provided with multiple gears, and the working speed of the air supply component 11 is different when the air supply component 11 is in different gears, so that the gears of the air supply component 11 can be adjusted according to different heat dissipation demands of the heat management system 100.
[0042] Please combine Figure 1 In an embodiment, the heat management system 100 further comprises a second flow adjusting structure 2, and the second flow adjusting structure 2 is arranged at the air outlet end of the refrigeration component 12. The second flow adjusting structure 2 is configured to distribute the flow of the air flow flowing from the air outlet end of the refrigeration component 12 to the refrigeration branch 30 and to the vehicle interior space. The second flow adjusting structure 2 can be a damper, and specifically an electronic damper.
[0043] When the refrigeration component 12 is in the non-working state, the application can block the refrigeration branch 30 through the second flow adjusting structure 2, so that the air flow passing through the refrigeration component 12 only flows to the vehicle interior space. At this time, the air supply branch 20 is opened by adjusting the first flow adjusting structure 1, so that the air flow flowing to the confluence main line 40 is all the air flow directly flowing out of the air supply component 11. In addition, when the air flow flowing to the confluence main line 40 all comes from the air supply branch 20, the gears of the air supply component 11 can be adjusted according to different heat dissipation demands of the heat generating component 50, so that the flow rate of the air flow flowing from the air supply component 11 to the air supply branch 20 is adjusted to meet the heat dissipation demand of the heat generating component 50.
[0044] When the refrigeration component 12 is in the working state, the application can open the refrigeration branch 30 through the second flow adjusting structure 2, and block the air supply branch 20 through the first flow adjusting structure 1, so that the air flow flowing out of the air supply component 11 is only transported to the refrigeration component 12, and then part of the air flow flows to the refrigeration branch 30 after being cooled by the refrigeration component 12. In addition, based on the heat dissipation demand of the heat generating component 50 and the heat dissipation demand of the vehicle interior space, the application can distribute the flow of the air flow flowing out of the refrigeration component 12 to the heat generating component 50 and to the vehicle interior space through the second flow adjusting structure 2.
[0045] Please combine Figure 1In an embodiment, the heat management system 100 further comprises a confluence main line 40 and a plurality of third heat dissipation branches 70. The confluence main line 40 is connected to the air outlet end of the air supply branch 20 and the air outlet end of the refrigeration branch 30. The confluence main line 40 is configured to deliver air flow to the heat generating components 50 of the vehicle 200, so that the air flow flowing into the air supply branch 20 and the air flow flowing into the refrigeration branch 30 can both flow to the heat generating components 50 through the confluence main line 40 to dissipate heat from the heat generating components 50. The plurality of third heat dissipation branches 70 are connected in parallel to the air outlet end of the confluence main line 40. The plurality of third heat dissipation branches 70 are arranged in correspondence with the plurality of heat generating components 50, and the third heat dissipation branches 70 are configured to deliver air flow to the corresponding heat generating components 50, so that the air flow flowing out of the confluence main line 40 is delivered to different heat generating components 50 through different third heat dissipation branches 70 to dissipate heat from the different heat generating components 50 and improve the utilization rate of the air flow flowing out of the confluence main line 40.
[0046] In the embodiment, the number of heat generating components 50 is three, which are the wireless charging device 51, the data processing unit 52 (DHU, Data Handling Unit), and the vehicle-mounted refrigerator 53. Correspondingly, the number of third heat dissipation branches 70 is three, and the three third heat dissipation branches 70 deliver air flow to the wireless charging device 51, the data processing unit 52, and the vehicle-mounted refrigerator 53 to dissipate heat therefrom.
[0047] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of heat generating components 50 can also be four or more, i.e., in addition to the wireless charging device 51, the data processing unit 52, and the vehicle-mounted refrigerator 53, the heat generating components 50 can also be other in-vehicle accessories that are prone to heat generation when working, such as a vehicle-mounted audio system.
[0048] In the embodiment, the heat management system 100 further comprises a third flow regulating structure 3 arranged at the air outlet end of the confluence main line 40. The third flow regulating structure 3 is configured to distribute the flow from the air outlet end of the confluence main line 40 to each of the plurality of third heat dissipation branches 70, so as to adjust the flow of each corresponding third heat dissipation branch 70 according to the heat dissipation requirement of each heat generating component 50, thereby achieving dynamic heat dissipation adjustment. The third flow regulating structure 3 can be a damper, and specifically a combined electronic damper.
[0049] In addition, when part of the plurality of heat generating components 50 is in a non-working state, the third flow adjusting structure 3 can block the third heat dissipation branch 70 corresponding to the heat generating component 50 in the non-working state, so that the airflow flowing out of the combined flow main line 40 is concentrated to the heat generating component 50 in the working state. Meanwhile, when at least two heat generating components 50 are in the working state, the fourth flow adjusting structure 4 can adjust the flow of the airflow flowing to the heat generating component 50 based on the heat dissipation priority or the required heat dissipation efficiency of each heat generating component 50.
[0050] Please combine Figures 1 to 3 In an embodiment, the thermal management system 100 further includes a heating branch 60, the air inlet end of the heating branch 60 is communicated with the air supply main line 10, and the connection between the air inlet end of the heating branch 60 and the air supply main line 10 is located on the air outlet side of the refrigeration component 12, so that the airflow flowing through the refrigeration component 12 can partially flow to the heating branch 60.
[0051] The heating branch 60 is provided with a heating component 61, and the heating component 61 is configured to heat the airflow entering the heating branch 60. The heating component 61 is a device such as a heat exchanger that can heat the airflow flowing therethrough, and the heating branch 60 is configured to at least deliver a hot airflow to the vehicle interior space of the vehicle 200. In this way, the air supply component 11, the refrigeration component 12, and the heating component 61 in the present application jointly constitute an air conditioning system of the vehicle 200, thereby realizing the delivery of hot air or cold air to the vehicle interior space.
[0052] In addition, the air supply main line 10 can also deliver airflow to the vehicle window 8, the windshield 9, and other positions of the vehicle 200 to realize defrosting operation and the like.
[0053] In the present embodiment, the air outlet end of the heating branch 60 is communicated with the air supply main line 10, so that the airflow entering the heating branch 60 from the air supply main line 10 is heated by the heating component 61 to form a hot airflow, and the hot airflow can also flow to the air supply main line 10 through the air outlet end of the heating branch 60, thereby delivering the hot airflow to the air supply main line 10, so that the air outlet end of the air supply main line 10 can deliver the hot airflow.
[0054] It can be understood that in other embodiments, the air outlet end of the heating branch 60 can also not be communicated with the air supply main line 10, and the air outlet end of the heating branch 60 can be communicated with the vehicle interior space of the vehicle 200 through a separately arranged pipeline.

The fourth flow adjusting structure 4 is configured to adjust the flow of the airflow flowing to the heating component 61. The fourth flow adjusting structure 4 can be a damper, and specifically an electronic damper.
[0056] When the cooling component 12 is in operation, the air inlet of the heating branch 60 is sealed by the fourth flow regulation structure 4 to prevent the heating component 61 from affecting the delivery of cold air to the vehicle interior by the main air supply 10.
[0057] When the cooling component 12 is not in operation, the air inlet of the heating branch 60 is selectively closed or opened by the fourth flow regulation structure 4, depending on whether the interior space needs to be heated.
[0058] In this embodiment, the thermal management system 100 further includes a fifth flow regulation structure 5, which is located at the air outlet of the heating element 61. The fifth flow regulation structure 5 is configured to adjust the flow rate of the hot air flowing out of the self-made heating element 61. The fifth flow regulation structure 5 can be a damper, specifically an electronic damper.
[0059] When the main air supply path 10 needs to deliver hot air, the heating element 61 starts to work. The air inlet of the heating branch 60 is opened through the fourth flow regulation structure 4, and the air outlet of the heating branch 60 is opened through the fifth flow regulation structure 5, so that the airflow of the main air supply path 10 can partially flow to the heating element 61. The heating element 61 heats the airflow before it flows back to the main air supply path 10.
[0060] In addition, based on the heating requirements of the vehicle interior space or windows 8, this application adjusts the flow rate of the airflow entering the heating branch 60 through the fourth flow adjustment structure 4, and adjusts the flow rate of the airflow from the self-heating branch 60 to the air supply main 10 through the fifth flow adjustment structure 5, so as to adjust the output volume of the hot airflow from the air supply main 10.

The thermal management system 100 is installed on the body 201 to deliver hot or cold air to the interior space of the vehicle, and to deliver hot air to the windows 8, windshield 9, and other locations of the vehicle 200 for defrosting. It can also deliver air to the heat-generating components 50 configured inside the vehicle 200 to dissipate heat.
