[0046] As Figures 1 to 4As shown, according to a first aspect of the present disclosure, a front compartment structure 100 of a vehicle is provided, comprising a front compartment cabin 10, a thermal management device assembly 20, and an electric device assembly 30, the front compartment cabin 10 having a first arrangement space 11 and a second arrangement space 12 therein, the electric device assembly 30 being arranged in the second arrangement space 12, and the thermal management device assembly 20 being arranged in the first arrangement space 11.

[0047] With the above technical solution, since the first arrangement space 11 and the second arrangement space 12 are located at different positions in the front compartment cabin 10 respectively, the electric device assembly 30 is arranged in the second arrangement space 12, and the thermal management device assembly 20 is arranged in the first arrangement space 11, which not only helps to increase the spacing between the electric device assembly 30 and the thermal management device assembly 20, but also helps to avoid the electric connection lines between the electric devices in the electric device assembly 30 from passing through the thermal management device assembly 20, and helps to avoid the pipelines between the thermal management devices in the thermal management device assembly 20 from passing through the electric device assembly 30, so that the front compartment structure 100 has good water and electricity separation degree, thereby helping to avoid the influence of the thermal management devices and pipelines in the thermal management device assembly 20 on the electric device assembly 30 when water leakage occurs, and further helping to improve the safety of the front compartment structure 100.

[0048] Moreover, the electric device assembly 30 is arranged in the first arrangement space 11, which helps to improve the concentration of the arrangement of the electric devices in the electric device assembly 30, thereby helping to save the electric connection lines between the electric devices, further helping to reduce the cost of the electric connection lines, and helping to improve the space utilization in the front compartment cabin 10.

[0049] Similarly, the thermal management device assembly 20 is arranged in the second arrangement space 12, which helps to improve the concentration of the arrangement of the thermal management devices in the thermal management device assembly 20, thereby helping to save the pipelines between the thermal management devices, further helping to reduce the cost of the pipelines, and helping to improve the space utilization in the front compartment cabin 10.

[0050] Optionally, the front compartment structure 100 of the vehicle can comprise a left suspension 81, a right suspension 82, an engine 60, and a hybrid power module 70 (five-in-one) arranged in the front compartment cabin 10. The engine 60 and the hybrid power module 70 can be arranged along the left-right direction of the vehicle and at least partially stacked and connected together to form a power assembly module. The power assembly can be connected with the left longitudinal beam, the right longitudinal beam, and the subframe of the vehicle through the left suspension 81 and the right suspension 82.

[0051] Here, the left suspension 81 and the right suspension 82 can be four-point suspensions.

[0052] Optionally, the hybrid power module 70 can comprise a drive motor, a generator, a generator controller 36, a drive motor controller 36, and a speed reducer.

[0053] In the present disclosure, the first arrangement space 11 and the second arrangement space 12 can be located at any suitable positions within the front compartment cabin 10, as an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 The front compartment cabin 10 includes a left half cabin 13 close to the left side of the vehicle and a right half cabin 14 close to the right side of the vehicle, the first arrangement space 11 is located within one of the left half cabin 13 and the right half cabin 14, and the second arrangement space 12 is located within the other one of the left half cabin 13 and the right half cabin 14. For example, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first arrangement space 11 is located within the left half cabin 13, and the second arrangement space 12 is located within the right half cabin 14, in other words, the thermal management device assembly 20 is arranged within the left half cabin 13, and the electric device assembly 30 is arranged within the right half cabin 14.

[0054] The front compartment cabin 10 generally has good arrangement space in the left-right direction of the vehicle, therefore, the first arrangement space 11 is located within one of the left half cabin 13 and the right half cabin 14, and the second arrangement space 12 is located within the other one of the left half cabin 13 and the right half cabin 14, which is beneficial to have a suitable interval between the thermal management device assembly 20 and the electric device assembly 30.

[0055] In addition, the thermal management device assembly 20 and the electric device assembly 30 are arranged within the left half cabin 13 and the right half cabin 14 respectively, which can also make the thermal management device assembly 20 and the electric device assembly 30 both obtain good installation and maintenance space.

[0056] The present disclosure does not limit the devices included in the electric device assembly 30, as an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 The electric device assembly 30 includes one or more of an air filter 31, a storage battery 32, an engine controller 33, a vehicle body stabilizing device 34, an electronic brake booster 35, and a motor controller 36. In this way, it is beneficial to reduce the influence of water leakage of the thermal management device on the air filter 31, the storage battery 32, the engine controller 33, the vehicle body stabilizing device 34, the electronic brake booster 35, and the motor controller 36.

[0057] It should be noted that the electric device assembly 30 refers to a collection of all power-related devices and systems on the vehicle, such as electrical devices and their related control systems for starting, driving, lighting, entertainment, communication, and other functions of the vehicle, and the working medium thereof generally does not include water. The thermal management device included in the electric device assembly 30 of the present disclosure can not be limited to the above electric devices. Moreover, the electric device included in the electric device assembly 30 of the present disclosure can not only be limited to the body of the electric device, but can also include the connecting pipeline between the electric devices, for example, the electric device assembly 30 can include the electrical connection line between the engine controller 33 and the engine 60.

[0058] The present disclosure does not limit the position of the engine controller 33 in the front compartment of the vehicle, and as an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the electric device assembly 30 includes the engine controller 33, and the first arrangement space 11 is located in the left half compartment 13 of the front compartment chamber 10, and the engine controller 33 is located at the rear of the left half compartment 13 in the front-rear direction of the vehicle. Figure 1

[0059] The engine controller 33 is located at the rear of the left half compartment 13, which on the one hand is conducive to shortening the distance between the engine controller 33 and the passenger compartment, thereby being conducive to saving the electrical connection line of the engine controller 33 connected to the passenger compartment, and on the other hand, the engine controller 33 is not too far away from the engine 60 in the front compartment chamber 10, thereby being conducive to saving the electrical connection line between the engine controller 33 and the passenger compartment, and further being conducive to reducing the difficulty of wiring and the cost of wire.

[0060] On the other hand, it is conducive to increasing the distance between the devices and pipelines of the thermal management device assembly 20 located in the right half compartment 14 and the engine controller 33, thereby being conducive to reducing the influence of water leakage of the devices and pipelines of the thermal management device assembly 20 on the engine controller 33.

[0061] As another embodiment of the present disclosure, the engine controller 33 can be located in the right half compartment 14.

[0062] The present disclosure does not limit the position of the battery 32 in the front compartment of the vehicle, and as an embodiment, as shown in FIG. 1, the electric device assembly 30 includes the battery 32, and the first arrangement space 11 is located in the left half compartment 13 of the front compartment chamber 10, and the battery 32 is located in the left half compartment 13. Figure 1

[0063] Thus, it is conducive to increasing the distance between the devices and pipelines of the thermal management device assembly 20 located in the right half compartment 14 and the battery 32, thereby being conducive to reducing the influence of water leakage of the devices and pipelines of the thermal management device assembly 20 on the battery 32.

[0064] ​​In addition, compared with the scheme in the related art that the battery is arranged in the passenger cabin, the battery 32 in the present disclosure is located in the left half cabin 13, which is also beneficial to save the space of the passenger cabin.

[0065] It can be understood that the battery 32 in the present disclosure is a low-voltage battery. The battery 32 can be electrically connected with the motor of the engine 60, can provide electric energy to the motor when the vehicle is started, and can drive the motor to drive the engine 60 to start, that is, can provide starting power for the engine 60. The battery 32 can also be connected with the generator in the hybrid power module 70. After the engine 60 is started, the generator can be driven to generate electricity, and the generator can charge the battery 32.

[0066] The battery 32 also has other electrical connection relationships and functions in the vehicle, especially in the extended-range vehicle, which will not be described in detail in the present disclosure.

[0067] As another embodiment of the present disclosure, the battery 32 can be located in the right half cabin 14.

[0068] The present disclosure does not limit the specific position of the battery 32 in the left half cabin 13. As an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 The front cabin structure 100 also includes a left suspension 81. In the left half cabin 13, the battery 32 is located directly above the left suspension 81. In this way, the space utilization rate directly above the left suspension 81 is improved, and more space is saved in the front cabin cabin 10, so that other devices can be arranged in the front cabin cabin 10.

[0069] It can be understood that the front cabin structure 100 of the vehicle usually includes a left suspension 81 located in the left half cabin 13 and a right suspension 82 located in the right half cabin 14. The left suspension 81 and the right suspension 82 are used to jointly support the engine 60 and the hybrid power module 70 (five-in-one) of the vehicle.

[0070] Optionally, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 The battery 32 is connected with the left suspension 81, and the battery 32 is also connected with the vehicle body. In this way, the dynamic stiffness of the left suspension 81 is improved, that is, the dynamic force required to cause a unit amplitude of the left suspension 81 is improved.

[0071] In order to improve the safety of the battery 32, as an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 The front cabin structure 100 also includes an air filter 31 arranged in the left half cabin 13. In the front-rear direction of the vehicle, the battery 32 is located behind the air filter 31.

[0072] The battery 32 is located behind the air filter 31, which is beneficial to increase the buffer space between the battery 32 and the front end of the vehicle, so that the vehicle body can absorb more impact energy when subjected to a front-to-back impact to reduce the impact force on the battery 32, thereby improving the safety of the battery 32.

[0073] It can be understood that the air filter 31 in the present disclosure is generally referred to as an air cleaner or an air filter, which is generally connected to the air inlet of the engine 60 and can filter out impurities such as dust, sand, pollen, insects, leaves and other tiny particulate matters in the air, thereby ensuring the cleanliness of the air entering the engine 60.

[0074] The sensor on the air filter 31 can be electrically connected to the engine controller 33 to transmit the detected parameters such as air flow, temperature or pressure of the air entering the engine 60 to the engine controller 33.

[0075] Optionally, as shown in Figure 1 In the front-to-back direction of the vehicle, at least part of the battery 32 can be blocked by the air filter 31, that is, the projection of the air filter 31 can block at least part of the battery 32 in the front-to-back direction of the vehicle.

[0076] The part of the air filter 31 blocking the battery 32 can act as a buffer, for example, when the vehicle is subjected to a front-to-back impact, the air filter 31 can absorb the impact energy by collapsing, thereby reducing the impact force on the battery 32, and thereby improving the safety of the battery 32.

[0077] The present disclosure does not limit the devices included in the thermal management device assembly 20, and as an embodiment, as shown in Figures 1 to 4 The thermal management device assembly 20 includes one or more of a water kettle, a first water pump located in the circuit of the motor, a second water pump located in the circuit of the battery, a multi-way valve, a battery heat exchanger 21 and a water-water condenser 22. In this way, the influence of water leakage of the water kettle, the first water pump located in the circuit of the motor, the second water pump located in the circuit of the battery, the multi-way valve, the battery heat exchanger 21 and the water-water condenser 22 on the electrical equipment can be reduced.

[0078] It should be noted that the thermal management devices included in the thermal management device assembly 20 refer to devices for controlling and optimizing the temperature and heat of the vehicle to ensure that the vehicle can operate normally under different working conditions and environmental conditions, and the working medium thereof usually includes water or other liquids. The thermal management devices included in the thermal management device assembly 20 of the present disclosure can not be limited to the above-mentioned thermal management devices, and the thermal management devices included in the thermal management device assembly 20 of the present disclosure can not only be limited to the bodies of the thermal management devices, but also can include the connecting pipelines between the thermal management devices, for example, can also include cooling air conditioning pipelines and the like.

[0079] In addition, the multi-way valve can be one or multiple, for example, multiple multi-way valves can include three-way valves, four-way valves, etc., and the present disclosure does not limit this.

[0080] It can be understood that the present disclosure does not limit the type of water tank, for example, the water tank can include a high-temperature water tank and a low-temperature water tank for degassing and containing expanded cooling liquid.

[0081] Among them, the high-temperature water tank is mainly used for storing and circulating high-temperature cooling liquid, and the low-temperature water pump is mainly used for storing and circulating low-temperature cooling liquid. The high-temperature water tank and the low-temperature water tank can be communicated with the first water pump and the second water pump, ensuring that there is enough cooling liquid supply during the cooling liquid circulation process of the motor and the second circuit. When the cooling liquid is reduced due to evaporation or leakage, the high-temperature water tank and the low-temperature water tank can timely supplement the corresponding cooling liquid to maintain the normal operation of the cooling system.

[0082] It can be understood that the water-water condenser 22 can be communicated with the first water pump in the thermal management integrated module 23 through a pipeline, so that the cooling liquid in the circuit where the motor is located can exchange heat with the air through the water-water condenser 22, thereby realizing the cooling of the cooling liquid in the circuit where the motor is located.

[0083] In addition, the battery heat exchanger 21 can be communicated with the second water pump in the thermal management integrated module 23 through a pipeline, so that the battery heat exchanger 21 can exchange heat with the cooling liquid in the circuit where the battery is located, thereby realizing the cooling of the cooling liquid in the circuit where the battery is located.

[0084] Optionally, the thermal management device assembly 20 includes a thermal management integrated module 23, and the thermal management integrated module 23 includes a water tank, a first water pump, a second water pump, and a multi-way valve.

[0085] The water tank, the first water pump, the second water pump, and the multi-way valve are integrated in the thermal management integrated module 23, which is beneficial to save the pipeline between the water tank, the first water pump, the second water pump, and the multi-way valve, thereby being beneficial to reduce the cost of the above-mentioned pipeline.

[0086] The present disclosure does not limit the specific position of the thermal management integrated module 23 in the second arrangement space 12, as an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 、 3 , 4, the second arrangement space 12 is located in the right half cabin 14 of the vehicle, along the front-rear direction of the vehicle, the thermal management integrated module 23 is located in the right half cabin 14, and the thermal management integrated module 23 is located in front of the right tower package 300 of the vehicle.

[0087] That is, the thermal management integrated module 23 can be arranged by utilizing the space in front of the right tower package 300 of the vehicle, on the one hand, it is beneficial to improve the space utilization in the front cabin compartment 10, and other available spaces in the front cabin compartment 10 can be saved.

[0088] On the other hand, it is beneficial to reduce the occupation of the thermal management module to the middle space of the front cabin compartment 10, so that the middle of the front cabin compartment 10 has complete space for other devices to be arranged, so that the front cabin compartment 10 has good versatility, and other devices in the front cabin compartment 10 can be arranged without changing the arrangement of the thermal management integrated module 23, for example, the arrangement of the thermal management integrated module 23 described above can adapt to the arrangement of other devices in the front cabin compartment 10 of the left-hand drive vehicle, and can also adapt to the arrangement of other devices in the front cabin compartment 10 of the right-hand drive vehicle.

[0089] In another aspect, it is beneficial to arrange the pipeline connected to the thermal management module close to the side wall of the front cabin compartment 10, so as to facilitate the pipeline connected to the thermal management module to avoid other devices in the front cabin compartment 10.

[0090] It can be understood that the shock absorber tower top of the vehicle is an important part connecting the shock absorber and the vehicle body, which bears the vibration and impact from the road and transmits it to other parts of the vehicle body. The right tower package 300 of the vehicle is the shock absorber tower top on the right side of the vehicle and the reinforcing structure or wrapping around it, and the right tower package 300 of the vehicle is usually located at the right rear end of the front cabin compartment 10.

[0091] As another embodiment of the present disclosure, the thermal management module can also be arranged in front of the left tower package 200 of the vehicle.

[0092] In the present disclosure, the battery heat exchanger 21 can be arranged at any suitable position in the second arrangement space 12, which is not limited in the present disclosure. As an embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 The thermal management device assembly 20 includes a battery heat exchanger 21, the battery heat exchanger 21 is connected with the interface on the thermal management integrated module 23, and the battery heat exchanger 21 is located in front of the thermal management integrated module 23.

[0093] The battery heat exchanger 21 is arranged in front of the thermal management integrated module 23, on the one hand, it is beneficial to avoid other devices in the front cabin of the vehicle, so as to facilitate the arrangement and disassembly of other devices in the front cabin compartment 10. On the other hand, it is beneficial to shorten the distance between the battery heat exchanger 21 and the thermal management integrated module 23, so as to save the pipeline between the battery heat exchanger 21 and the thermal management integrated module 23.

[0094] The present disclosure also does not limit the position of the water-water condenser 22 in the second arrangement space 12, and as an embodiment, as shown in Figure 3As shown, the thermal management device assembly 20 comprises a water-water condenser 22, which is connected with the interfaces on the thermal management integrated module 23 and is located in front of the thermal management integrated module 23.

[0095] The water-water condenser 22 is arranged in front of the thermal management integrated module 23, which is beneficial to avoiding the water-water condenser 22 from other devices in the front compartment of the vehicle, so as to facilitate the arrangement and disassembly of other devices in the front compartment cabin 10. On the other hand, it is beneficial to shorten the distance between the water-water condenser 22 and the thermal management integrated module 23, so as to save the pipeline between the water-water condenser 22 and the thermal management integrated module 23.

[0096] Specifically, the water-water condenser 22 can be arranged at the front end of the right longitudinal beam of the vehicle.

[0097] Optionally, as shown, Figure 3 As shown, the front compartment structure 100 comprises a water-water heat exchanger 40 and a three-way proportional valve 50, three ports of the three-way proportional valve 50 are adapted to be connected with the interfaces of the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the thermal management integrated module 23 and the generator, and the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 are arranged on the rear compartment wall of the front compartment cabin 10.

[0098] In this way, not only the bodies of the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 can be arranged on the rear compartment wall of the front compartment cabin 10, but also the pipeline between the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 can be arranged along the rear compartment wall of the front compartment cabin 10, so as to facilitate the bodies of the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 to avoid other devices in the front compartment cabin 10, and facilitate the pipeline between the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 to avoid other devices in the front compartment cabin 10, thereby facilitating the arrangement and disassembly of other devices in the front compartment cabin 10.

[0099] In addition, the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 are arranged on the rear compartment wall of the front compartment cabin 10, which is beneficial to taking into account the distance between the three-way proportional valve 50 and the interfaces of the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the thermal management integrated module 23 and the engine 60 of the vehicle, so as to save the pipeline connected with the three-way proportional valve 50, thereby reducing the cost.

[0100] It can be understood that the water-water heat exchanger 40 can use two different temperature water fluids to exchange heat through the wall surface inside the heat exchanger, and the heat is transferred through the heat exchange between the two fluids. In the range-extended vehicle, the water-water heat exchanger 40 is usually used in the cooling system, such as the engine cooling system, the battery cooling system, etc., which can transfer the heat of the high-temperature coolant to the low-temperature coolant, or transfer the heat of the coolant to the external environment, so as to achieve the cooling of the system.

[0101] For example, the water-water heat exchanger 40 can be communicated with the water jacket of the engine 60 through the three-way proportional valve 50, so as to realize heat exchange of the cooling water of the engine 60, and the water-water heat exchanger 40 can also be communicated with the water tank in the thermal management integrated module 23 through the three-way proportional valve 50, so that the water-water heat exchanger 40 can obtain the supplement of the cooling liquid from the water tank.

[0102] The three-way proportional valve 50 can adjust the flow of the cooling liquid (i.e. water) in different flow paths, so as to realize adjustment of the cooling effect of the engine 60.

[0103] Optionally, the rear cavity wall of the front cabin compartment 10 is at least partially formed by the front cross beam of the vehicle, and the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 are both arranged on the front cross beam.

[0104] Since the front cross beam of the vehicle has good rigidity and strength, the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50 are both arranged on the front cross beam, which is beneficial to guarantee the reliability of the operation of the water-water heat exchanger 40 and the three-way proportional valve 50.

[0105] It can be understood that the working principles, the connection relationship among each other, and the connection relationship with other devices of the thermal management devices (such as the water tank, the first water pump located in the loop of the motor, the second water pump located in the loop of the battery, the multi-way valve, the battery heat exchanger 21, and the water-water condenser 22) included in the thermal management assembly in the present disclosure are all known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described herein.

[0106] Similarly, the working principles, the connection relationship among each other, and the connection relationship with other devices of the electrical equipment (such as the air filter 31, the storage battery 32, the engine controller 33, the vehicle body stabilizing device 34, the electronic brake booster 35, and the motor controller 36) included in the electrical equipment assembly in the present disclosure are all known to those skilled in the art, and will not be described herein.

[0107] According to a second aspect of the present disclosure, a vehicle is provided, which comprises the above-mentioned front cabin structure 100.

[0108] The type of the vehicle is not limited in the present disclosure, and as an embodiment, the above-mentioned vehicle can be a range-extended vehicle.
