DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The utility model will be further described below in combination with the embodiments shown in the drawings:

[0030] As shown in Figure 1 and Figure 3 , an electric drive assembly capable of efficiently adjusting temperature includes a drive motor 1. The drive motor 1 is a three-phase asynchronous motor, which is a commonly used type of motor in new energy vehicles. The drive motor 1 operates by cutting the magnetic induction lines through the energized conductor. Compared with permanent magnet synchronous motors, three-phase asynchronous motors have lower manufacturing and maintenance costs. High load efficiency: the load efficiency of an induction motor can reach 90%-92%, and the speed range is wide, suitable for various working conditions.

[0031] In this embodiment, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 6 , the outer cover of the drive motor 1 is provided with a first heat exchange assembly 2 having a water channel cavity.

[0032] The first heat exchange assembly 2 includes a motor support upper shell 21, a motor support lower shell 22, a heat exchange inner shell 23, and a heat exchange outer shell 24. The heat exchange inner shell 23 and the heat exchange outer shell 24 are sealingly connected between the motor support upper shell 21 and the motor support lower shell 22. The drive motor 1 is installed inside the heat exchange inner shell 23. The surface of the heat exchange inner shell 23 is provided with a plurality of first annular bosses 25. The gap between the inner wall of the heat exchange outer shell 24 and the first annular bosses 25 is a water channel cavity. The surface of the heat exchange outer shell 24 is also provided with a water inlet 26 and a water outlet 27.

[0033] When the drive motor 1 operates at excessively high speed and is in a high-temperature state, the heat generated by the drive motor 1 will be transferred to the heat exchange inner housing 23 and the heat exchange outer housing 24. If air cooling is insufficient to achieve adequate cooling, an external water pump will activate. Water will enter the water channel cavity between the inner wall of the heat exchange outer housing 24 and the first annular protrusion 25 through the inlet 26, gradually filling the entire water channel cavity. Through heat exchange, the water can more effectively remove the heat generated by the motor from the heat exchange inner housing 23, keeping the motor operating within its normal operating temperature range. This helps prevent motor overheating, improves motor reliability, and extends its service life.

[0034] In winter, if heated water enters the water passage cavity between the inner wall of the heat exchange housing 24 and the first annular protrusion 25 through the inlet 26 and gradually fills the entire water passage cavity, the first heat exchange component 2 can also heat the motor in a cold environment, ensuring that it operates within a relatively ideal temperature range, which helps to improve motor efficiency.

[0035] In this embodiment, please refer to... Figure 2 , Figure 4 The drive motor 1 has a transmission mechanism 3 connected to its shaft end. The transmission mechanism 3 includes an upper transmission housing 31, a lower transmission housing 32, a power input gear 33, a gear support shaft 34, a first driven gear 35, a second driven gear 36, and a wheel drive assembly 37. The shaft of the drive motor 1 passes through the upper transmission housing 31 and is rotatably connected to the interior of the lower transmission housing 32. The power input gear 33 is connected to the surface of the shaft of the drive motor 1. The gear support shaft 34 is located inside the lower transmission housing 32. The first driven gear 35 and the second driven gear 36 are splined on the gear support shaft 34. The first driven gear 35 is engaged with the power input gear 33, and the second driven gear 36 is connected to the wheel drive assembly 37.

[0036] The wheel drive assembly 37 includes a wheel drive gear 371, a differential 372, and a wheel drive shaft 373. The wheel drive gear 371 is rotatably connected to the interior of the lower transmission housing 32. The differential 372 is installed inside the wheel drive gear 371, and its movement is synchronized with the rotation of the wheel drive gear 371. The wheel drive shafts 373 on both sides of the differential 372 pass through the interior surfaces of the upper transmission housing 31 and the lower transmission housing 32, respectively. The diameter of the wheel drive gear 371 is larger than that of the power input gear 33, the first driven gear 35, and the second driven gear 36. The interior of the metal bearing 38 on the surface of the motor support upper housing 21 or the motor support lower housing 22 is connected to the end of the gear support shaft 34.

[0037] During rotation, the shaft of the drive motor 1 drives the power input gear 33 to rotate, which in turn drives the first driven gear 35 and the second driven gear 36 to rotate simultaneously. During this rotation, the gear support shaft 34 provides support and guidance. The second driven gear 36 transmits power to the wheel drive gear 371. This transmission process reduces the high speed of the drive motor 1 while amplifying its output torque, ensuring that the wheels of the electric vehicle connected to the end of the wheel drive shaft 373 receive a driving force suitable for the driving scenario (such as starting or climbing).

[0038] In the process of the wheel drive gear 371 driving the differential 372, the differential 372 dynamically adjusts the speed difference between the left and right wheels to ensure that the vehicle maintains stability and handling when turning.

[0039] In this embodiment, please continue to refer to Figure 5 As shown, at least one drive gear inside the transmission mechanism 3 has a liquid flow channel inside, which is connected to the outlet 27 of the first heat exchange component 2. The gear support shaft 34 has a support shaft recess 341 on its surface near the transmission lower housing 32. The support shaft recess 341 is a liquid flow channel. The end of the support shaft recess 341 is connected to one end of the guide pipe 6, and the other end of the guide pipe 6 is connected to the outlet 27 of the first heat exchange component 2.

[0040] The gears inside the transmission mechanism 3 generate a large amount of heat during high-speed rotation. The end of the support shaft recess 341 is connected to the interior of the guide pipe 6, which in turn is connected to the outlet 27 of the heat exchange housing 24. This establishes a preliminary heat exchange mechanism between the transmission mechanism 3 and the first heat exchange component 2.

[0041] In summer, if the transmission mechanism 3 is cooled at the same time as the drive motor 1, it can prevent the lubricating oil used in some gears inside the transmission mechanism 3 from failing due to high temperature.

[0042] In winter, if the heat generated inside the transmission mechanism 3 can be effectively transferred to the gap between the inner wall of the heat exchange housing 24 and the first annular protrusion 25, then the heat generated by the mechanical friction of the transmission mechanism 3 can be conducted to the motor, maintaining the optimal operating temperature of the motor when it is operating at low temperatures.

[0043] Please continue to refer to this. Figure 7As shown, to further enhance the heat exchange efficiency between the transmission mechanism 3 and the first heat exchange component 2, a second heat exchange component 4 for containing liquid is provided on one side of the surface of the transmission mechanism 3. The second heat exchange component 4 includes a metal support plate 41 and a heat exchange pipe 42. The metal support plate 41 is provided on the side of the transmission lower housing 32. There is a gap between the metal support plate 41 and the transmission lower housing 32, and the heat exchange pipe 42 is provided inside the gap. The end of the heat exchange pipe 42 is connected to the interior of the guide pipe 6.

[0044] The heat exchange pipes 42 are arranged in a coiled manner, covering the entire surface of the lower transmission housing 32. The gap between the metal support plate 41 and the lower transmission housing 32 is to ensure that heat is effectively dissipated during summer.

[0045] In summer, the outlet 27 needs to be in a free-flowing mode. Water passing through the inner heat exchange shell 23 and outer heat exchange shell 24 will flow out through the outlet 27. However, since the bottom of the outlet 27 is connected to the guide pipe 6, this discharged water will also flow further into the heat exchange pipe 42 and the support shaft recess 341 through the guide pipe 6. At this point, the heat dissipation of the entire drive motor 1 and the transmission mechanism 3 is integrated, allowing both to effectively dissipate heat. This highly integrated design not only reduces costs but also further ensures the normal operation of the hardware under extreme weather conditions.

[0046] In winter, the outlet 27 needs to be in a closed state, meaning that water entering from the inlet 26 cannot flow out from the outlet 27. Similarly, water passing through the inner heat exchange shell 23 and the outer heat exchange shell 24 will flow out through the outlet 27. However, since the bottom of the outlet 27 is connected to the guide pipe 6, the discharged water will further flow into the heat exchange pipe 42 and the support shaft recess 341 through the guide pipe 6. At this time, the temperature of the entire drive motor 1 can be effectively affected by the heat generated by the transmission mechanism 3. The first heat exchange component 2 outside the drive motor 1 and the second heat exchange component 4 outside the transmission mechanism 3 tend to be integrated. The drive motor 1 can warm the first heat exchange component 2, reducing the risk of abnormal operation of the drive motor 1 due to extreme weather. The highly integrated design not only reduces costs but also further ensures the normal operation of the hardware under extreme weather conditions.

[0047] In this embodiment, to further control the opening of the outlet 27, please refer to [the relevant documentation / reference]. Figure 8 and Figure 9 As shown, Figure 8 This indicates that water can flow out of valve body outlet 532, and Figure 9This indicates that water cannot flow out of the valve body outlet 532. The outlet 27 of the first heat exchange component 2 is connected to a valve body mechanism 5 that can control the blockage and flow of the water path. The valve body mechanism 5 includes a water valve cover 51, a micro motor 52, a water valve base 53, a valve core cavity 54, and a metal valve core 55. The micro motor 52 is located inside the water valve cover 51. The valve body inlet 531 and the valve body outlet 532 are located inside the water valve base 53. The valve core cavity 54 is located between the bottom of the water valve cover 51 and the top of the water valve base 53. The shaft end of the micro motor 52 is connected to the metal valve core 55. The rotation of the metal valve core 55 can block or open the valve body inlet 531 and the valve body outlet 532.

[0048] The water valve base 53 is also provided with a hollow valve core support shaft 56 inside. One side of the valve core support shaft 56 is also provided with a columnar inner groove 57 that communicates with the water outlet 532 of the valve body. The top of the columnar inner groove 57 is provided with a water passage hole 571. The bottom of the metal valve core 55 is provided with several second annular protrusions 551 adapted to the top of the valve core support shaft 56 and silicone sealing protrusions 58 adapted to the water passage hole 571. The rotation of the metal valve core 55 can cause the silicone sealing protrusions 58 to be engaged or disengaged from the inside of the water passage hole 571.

[0049] The water valve cover 51 and the water valve base 53 are sealed together. When it is necessary to control the outlet 27 to be blocked, the shaft of the micro motor 52 will control the metal valve core 55 to rotate, causing the silicone sealing boss 58 at the end of the metal valve core 55 to deform and block the inside of the water passage hole 571. The water flowing from the valve body inlet 531 will be blocked by the fit between the silicone sealing boss 58 and the water passage hole 571. Similarly, after continuing to rotate the metal valve core 55, the silicone sealing boss 58 will move away from the inside of the water passage hole 571. At this time, the water flowing from the valve body inlet 531 will flow out of the valve body outlet 532 through the water passage hole 571 at the top of the columnar inner groove 57.

[0050] Working principle and usage of this invention:

[0051] During summer operation: the shaft of the micro motor 52 will control the metal valve core 55 to rotate, and the silicone sealing boss 58 will move away from the inside of the water passage hole 571. At this time, the water flowing from the valve body inlet 531 will flow out from the valve body outlet 532 to the outside through the water passage hole 571 at the top of the columnar inner groove 57, and the outlet 27 is in a smooth state.

[0052] At this point, the water passing through the heat exchange inner shell 23 and the heat exchange outer shell 24 will flow out through the outlet 27. However, since the bottom of the outlet 27 is connected to the guide pipe 6, the discharged water will also flow further into the heat exchange pipe 42 and the support shaft recess 341 through the guide pipe 6. At this point, the heat dissipation of the entire drive motor 1 and the transmission mechanism 3 tends to be integrated, and both can effectively dissipate heat. In terms of design, not only is the high integration reducing costs, but it also further ensures the normal operation of the hardware under extreme weather conditions.

[0053] During winter operation: The shaft of the micro motor 52 controls the metal valve core 55 to rotate, causing the silicone sealing boss 58 at the end of the metal valve core 55 to deform and block the inside of the water passage hole 571. The water flowing from the valve body inlet 531 will be blocked by the fit between the silicone sealing boss 58 and the water passage hole 571, and the outlet 27 will be in a blocked state.

[0054] At this time, the water passing through the heat exchange inner shell 23 and the heat exchange outer shell 24 will flow out through the outlet 27. However, since the bottom of the outlet 27 is connected to the guide pipe 6, the discharged water will also flow into the heat exchange pipe 42 and the support shaft recess 341 through the guide pipe 6. At this time, the temperature of the entire drive motor 1 can be effectively affected by the heat generated by the transmission mechanism 3. The first heat exchange component 2 outside the drive motor 1 and the second heat exchange component 4 outside the transmission mechanism 3 tend to be integrated. The drive motor 1 can heat the first heat exchange component 2. When the drive motor 1 does not need to be heated, the outlet 27 is opened to drain the water, reducing the risk of abnormal operation of the drive motor 1 due to extreme weather. The design not only has high integration, reducing costs, but also further ensures the normal operation of the hardware under extreme weather conditions.

[0055] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the spirit of the invention.
