Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy vehicle technology, specifically to a roof-mounted battery cover for a bus and the bus itself. Background Technology

[0002] In recent years, with the advocacy of energy conservation and emission reduction, vehicles have increasingly adopted pollution-free electric energy to replace traditional fuels. The installation of batteries is an essential feature of new energy vehicles. At the same time, to facilitate passengers getting on and off, bus companies have an increasingly strong demand for low-floor vehicles and vehicles with bottom entrances. As a result, it is very common for the battery installation location to change from the chassis to the top.

[0003] The inventors discovered that the batteries in existing new energy buses are integrated with the roof of the vehicle, which increases the overall height of the bus. The front and rear heights of the bus are the same, but the length of the battery is much shorter than the length of the bus, resulting in poor overall coordination and a large space occupation.

Specifically, in this embodiment, the battery is square, and the battery cavity is also square. In other embodiments, the battery can be cylindrical, and the battery cavity is also cylindrical accordingly. As long as the battery can be fixed inside the battery cavity, the shape of the battery cavity is not limited in this utility model.

[0037] Furthermore, a shielding component is disposed at the front end of the housing 10 along the direction of travel of the bus. The shielding component is used to shield the air conditioner. It is understood that, in this embodiment, the air conditioner is fixed to the outer side of the top of the bus. By wrapping the air conditioner with the shielding component, the air conditioner and the battery can be integrated, avoiding gaps between the air conditioner and the battery, preventing the bus top module from becoming fragmented, improving the overall integrity and coordination of the bus, and optimizing the appearance of the bus.

[0038] The clearance opening 30 is located on the side of the housing 10 away from the obstruction. The clearance opening 30 is corresponding to the sunroof of the bus. It can be understood that when the housing 10 is installed on the roof of the bus, the clearance opening 30 allows the sunroof to be exposed, making it convenient to open or close the sunroof.

[0039] Optionally, in this embodiment, the skylight is square, and the clearance opening 30 is correspondingly square. In other embodiments, if the skylight is other shapes, such as circular, the clearance opening 30 is correspondingly other shapes. As long as the skylight can be exposed, the shape of the clearance opening 30 is not limited in this invention.

[0040] Optionally, in this embodiment, the clearance opening 30 is a closed structure, that is, a baffle 31 is provided on the side of the clearance opening 30 away from the housing 10. In other embodiments, the baffle 31 may not be provided on the side of the clearance opening 30 away from the housing 10. As long as the location of the skylight can be avoided, the present invention does not limit the type of clearance opening 30.

[0041] Furthermore, to prevent water accumulation in the relief opening 30 during rain, a water guiding structure is provided in the relief opening 30. In this embodiment, the water guiding structure is a drain outlet. The drain outlet is located on the side wall of the relief opening 30. In other embodiments, the water guiding structure can be a water channel. As long as water accumulation in the relief opening 30 is prevented, the specific shape of the water guiding structure is not limited in this invention.

[0042] It is understood that in this embodiment, the battery, air conditioner, and sunroof are arranged along the forward direction of the bus.

[0043] In this embodiment, the shielding component includes two wing plates 20. The wing plates 20 are respectively connected to both sides of the housing 10 perpendicular to the direction of travel of the bus. The wing plates 20 extend towards the side facing the direction of travel of the bus. It can be understood that the wing plates 20 are connected to the front end of the housing 10 and are disposed on the left and right sides of the housing 10, used to clamp the air conditioner between the two wing plates 20. The wing plates 20 shield both sides of the air conditioner, integrating the air conditioner and battery, and improving the overall integrity of the bus roof.

[0044] Optionally, in this embodiment, the wing plate 20 is detachably connected to the air conditioner by screws. In other embodiments, the wing plate 20 may not be fixed to the air conditioner, but may simply be located on both sides of the air conditioner. As long as the wing plate 20 can effectively shield the outside of the air conditioner, this utility model is not limited in this regard.

[0045] To increase the drag of the bus forward, in this embodiment, a first guide ramp 21 is provided at the end of the wing plate 20 away from the housing 10. The distance from the bottom of the first guide ramp 21 to the housing 10 is greater than the distance from the top of the first guide ramp 21 to the housing 10. It can be understood that the first guide ramp 21 makes the wing plate 20 form a streamlined structure to reduce the air resistance when the bus is moving forward.

[0046] Furthermore, the housing 10 is provided with second guide ramps 12 on both sides perpendicular to the direction of travel of the bus. The top of the second guide ramps 12 tapers inward toward the interior of the housing 10. Specifically, the second guide ramps 12 are provided on the left and right sides of the housing 10. It can be understood that the second guide ramps 12 make the housing 10 form a streamlined structure to reduce air resistance when the bus turns.

[0047] Please refer to Figure 2 The housing 10 also has an inspection door 32 for opening the housing 10 to inspect the battery. Specifically, the inspection door 32 is located in a vertical plane. It can be understood that the inspection door 32 is exposed on the outside of the housing 10. By setting the inspection door 32 vertically, rainwater can slide off the inspection door 32 when it rains, preventing rainwater from entering the interior of the housing 10.

[0048] Furthermore, a sealing element is provided at the access door 32. Specifically, the sealing element is a sealing ring. It is located at the edge of the access door 32 to further enhance the sealing performance of the housing 10 and prevent water leakage from the housing 10, which could damage the battery.

[0049] In this embodiment, the access door 32 is located on the side of the housing 10 where the clearance opening 30 is provided. That is, the access door 32 is located at the rear end of the housing 10. In other embodiments, the access door 32 may be located on the left or right sides of the housing 10. As long as the access door 32 can be exposed outside the housing 10, the present invention does not limit the position of the access door 32.

[0050] Furthermore, to facilitate moving the housing 10 to the top of the bus, a mounting member 40 is provided on the top of the housing 10 for mounting the housing 10 onto the bus. It is understood that the mounting member 40 is used to move the housing 10.

[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, the mounting component 40 is a mounting ring. When it is necessary to install the housing 10, the housing 10 is lifted by a crane in cooperation with the mounting ring and moved to the top of the bus. The housing 10 is then installed on the top of the bus by screw connection or welding.

[0052] Alternatively, in other embodiments, the mounting component 40 can be a suction cup, magnetic component, or other lifting structure.

[0053] Furthermore, the housing 10 is provided with protrusions 11 on both sides perpendicular to the direction of travel of the bus. It is understood that in this embodiment, the protrusions 11 are arranged in the shape of strips along the direction of travel of the bus. The protrusions 11 can increase the strength of the outer wall of the housing 10, and can also be used for decoration, such as displaying advertisements, company logos and other signs.

[0054] In other embodiments, the protrusion 11 can also be configured as a light panel for displaying advertisements, vehicle information, etc.
