Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of vehicle technology, and more particularly to a thermal management component for a vehicle and a vehicle. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the requirements for compactness, lightweight design, and NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) performance are increasing. As one of the core systems of new energy vehicles, the layout and installation of its components directly affect the vehicle's performance and driving experience. Currently, the electric compressor in new energy vehicles is typically mounted on the vehicle body or chassis bracket via a separate bracket. Some integrated compressor solutions also fix the compressor and heater together via a base plate or flow channel plate.
[0003] This integrated installation method has certain drawbacks: vibration and noise issues are prominent, as the electric compressor generates significant vibration during operation. This installation method is often insufficient to completely isolate and attenuate vibrations. These vibrations are transmitted to the vehicle body through the bracket or base plate, generating unpleasant noise and affecting the vehicle's quietness and comfort. Therefore, improving vibration reduction is a pressing technical problem that needs to be solved. Utility Model Content
[0004] This application provides a thermal management component for a vehicle and a vehicle, and the thermal management component according to this application improves the vibration reduction effect.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the main technical solutions adopted in this application include:
[0006] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a thermal management component for a vehicle, including a front-end module, a compressor bracket, and a compressor; the compressor bracket is mounted on the front-end module along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle; the compressor is disposed on the side of the compressor bracket away from the front-end module along the longitudinal direction of the vehicle; wherein, the thermal management component further includes a first damping member and a first fastener, the first fastener passing through the compressor bracket and fixed to the front-end module, the first damping member being located between the compressor bracket and the first fastener, or the first damping member being located between the compressor bracket and the front-end module.
[0007] According to the first aspect of the present application, a thermal management component for a vehicle is provided. The first damper can directly absorb the vibration energy generated when the compressor is working, block the transmission path of vibration to the front-end module and the vehicle body, effectively reduce the NVH noise caused by compressor vibration during vehicle operation, reduce the occurrence of vibration transmission to the cabin, improve driving comfort, and at the same time reduce the impact interference of vibration on other components of the thermal management system (such as pipelines and sensors). In addition, the first damper can also buffer the instantaneous impact when the vehicle is driving on bumpy roads, reduce the occurrence of stress concentration between the first fastener and the compressor bracket and the front-end module, avoid structural deformation or loosening caused by local stress concentration, and improve structural reliability.
[0008] Optionally, the thermal management assembly further includes a second damper, one of which, along with the first damper, is located between the compressor bracket and the first fastener, and the other is located between the compressor bracket and the front-end module.
[0009] In the above solution, the vibration transmission between the compressor bracket and the front-end module can be reduced first by the first damping component on one side of the compressor bracket, and then the vibration transmission between the first fastener and the compressor bracket can be reduced by the second damping component on the other side of the compressor bracket. This greatly reduces the transmission of vibration to the vehicle body and cabin, significantly optimizes the vehicle's NVH performance, and improves driving comfort.
[0010] Optionally, the first fastener includes a first nut and a first stud, the first stud passing through the compressor bracket and fixed to the front-end module, the first damping member being sleeved on the first stud and clamped between the first nut and the compressor bracket, and the second damping member being sleeved on the first stud and clamped between the compressor bracket and the front-end module.
[0011] In the above solution, the first damping component can block the transmission of vibration between the first nut and the compressor bracket, and the second damping component can block the transmission of vibration between the compressor bracket and the front module, thereby achieving vibration isolation on both sides of the compressor bracket, which greatly reduces the vibration caused by compressor working vibration or vehicle driving impact, significantly weakens NVH noise, and significantly improves driving comfort.
[0012] Optionally, the thermal management assembly also includes a third damper and a second fastener, the second fastener being inserted through the compressor and fixed to the compressor bracket, and the third damper being disposed between the compressor and the compressor bracket.
[0013] In the above solution, the second fastener passes through the compressor and is fixed to the compressor bracket, which can firmly connect the compressor and the compressor bracket, help to prevent relative displacement between the compressor and the bracket, and ensure the sealing of the thermal management system pipeline connection and the operating stability of the compressor. The third vibration damper is directly clamped between the compressor and the bracket, which can absorb the vibration energy generated by the compressor and block the transmission path of the compressor vibration to the compressor bracket, front-end module and body. Working together with the first vibration damper, it can further reduce the NVH noise of the thermal management system and significantly improve the driving comfort.
[0014] Optionally, the compressor includes a compressor body and a mounting part, the mounting part is disposed on the compressor body, a second fastener passes through the mounting part and is fixed to the compressor bracket, and a third vibration damping member is sleeved on the second fastener and clamped between the mounting part and the compressor bracket.
[0015] In the above solution, the mounting section serves to provide an installation area for the second fastener. Compared with setting the mounting structure directly on the compressor body, it can ensure the relative positional accuracy of the compressor and the compressor bracket, reduce the occurrence of installation misalignment, and at the same time, the mounting section can distribute the clamping stress of the second fastener and the working load of the compressor, reducing the probability of stress concentration on the compressor body. The third vibration damping component is sleeved on the second fastener and precisely clamped between the mounting section and the bracket, which can directly absorb vibration energy from between the compressor and the compressor bracket, further reducing NVH noise and significantly improving driving comfort.
[0016] Optionally, the mounting part is provided with multiple weight-reducing grooves, which penetrate one side wall of the mounting part along a first direction, and the first direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the second fastener.
[0017] In the above solution, multiple weight-reducing grooves can significantly reduce redundant materials in the mounting section, reducing the overall weight of the compressor while ensuring the connection strength and load-bearing capacity of the mounting section. This contributes to the lightweight design of the entire vehicle and reduces energy consumption. The through-type structure of the weight-reducing grooves can change the stress distribution of the mounting section, disperse the compressive stress generated when the second fastener is tightened and the vibration stress transmitted when the compressor is working, and avoid deformation or cracking of the mounting section caused by local stress concentration. At the same time, the hollow structure formed by the weight-reducing grooves can weaken the transmission efficiency of vibration in the mounting section, further improving the vibration reduction and noise reduction effect and reducing NVH noise.
[0018] Optionally, the compressor bracket is provided with a first groove, a first fastener passes through the bottom wall of the first groove and is fixed to the front end module, and a first damping member is clamped between the bottom wall of the first groove and the first fastener.
[0019] In the above scheme, the first groove can form a limiting constraint on the first damping component, preventing the damping component from circumferentially moving or shifting during vehicle driving vibration or assembly, ensuring that the damping component is always in the optimal damping force position, and ensuring stable and reliable damping effect. The concave design of the first groove can make full use of the space of the compressor bracket, without occupying additional external arrangement space around the front-end module, thus improving the overall compactness of the thermal management component structure.
[0020] Optionally, the first fastener includes a first nut and a first stud, the first stud passing through the bottom wall of the first groove and fixed to the front end module, the first damping member being sleeved on the first stud and sandwiched between the first nut and the bottom wall of the first groove, and the first nut being disposed in the first groove.
[0021] In the above solution, the first groove provides a dedicated space for the first nut, which can prevent the first nut from protruding outward and interfering with surrounding pipes and components, greatly optimizing the compactness of the overall structure of the thermal management component and improving space utilization. At the same time, the first groove can form a circumferential limit on the first nut, preventing the nut from loosening or falling off due to vehicle vibration, ensuring the long-term reliability of the connection structure. In addition, the first groove can also act as a limit to prevent the first vibration damper from axial movement or circumferential displacement, ensuring that the vibration damper is always in the optimal stress position, stably absorbing the compressor's operating vibration and fastener locking stress, and enhancing the vibration reduction and noise reduction effect.
[0022] Optionally, the compressor bracket is provided with a first protrusion, which protrudes towards the compressor, and a third damping member is clamped between the mounting part and the first protrusion.
[0023] In the above scheme, the protruding structure can reduce the contact area of the damping component, making the damping force more concentrated. At the same time, it can distribute the weight load and vibration stress of the compressor to the protruding part of the compressor bracket, reducing the probability of the compressor body directly transmitting vibration to the compressor bracket.
[0024] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a vehicle including a thermal management component according to any of the embodiments.
[0025] The vehicle according to the second aspect of the present application, having the thermal management component proposed in any embodiment, significantly reduces the transmission of vibration to the vehicle body and cabin, significantly optimizes the vehicle's NVH performance, and improves driving comfort.

[0045] In this application, "multiple" refers to two or more (including two), similarly, "multiple sets" refers to two or more (including two sets), and "multiple pieces" refers to two or more (including two pieces).
[0046] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles, the requirements for compactness, lightweight design, and NVH (noise, vibration, and harshness) performance are increasing. As one of the core systems of new energy vehicles, the layout and installation of its components directly affect the vehicle's performance and driving experience. Currently, the electric compressor in new energy vehicles is typically mounted on the vehicle body or chassis bracket via a separate bracket. Some integrated compressor solutions also fix the compressor and heater together via a base plate or flow channel plate.
[0047] This integrated installation method has certain drawbacks: vibration and noise issues are prominent, as the electric compressor generates significant vibration during operation. This installation method is often insufficient to completely isolate and attenuate vibrations. These vibrations are transmitted to the vehicle body through the bracket or base plate, producing unpleasant noise and affecting the vehicle's quietness and comfort.
[0048] Therefore, how to improve the vibration reduction effect is a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved.
[0049] Therefore, in order to improve the vibration reduction effect, this application provides a thermal management component for a vehicle. The thermal management component further includes a first vibration damper 400 and a first fastener 500. The first fastener 500 passes through the compressor bracket 200 and is fixed to the front-end module 100. The first vibration damper 400 is located between the compressor bracket 200 and the first fastener 500, or between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100. The first vibration damper 400 can directly absorb the vibration energy generated when the compressor 300 is working, blocking the vibration from reaching the front-end module 100. The transmission path of the compressor 300 and the vehicle body effectively reduces NVH noise caused by the vibration of the compressor 300 during vehicle operation, reduces the occurrence of vibration transmission to the cabin, improves driving comfort, and reduces the impact interference of vibration on other components of the thermal management system (such as pipelines and sensors). At the same time, the first damping component 400 can also buffer the instantaneous impact when the vehicle is driving on bumpy roads, reduce the occurrence of stress concentration between the first fastener 500 and the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100, avoid structural deformation or loosening caused by local stress concentration, and improve structural reliability.
[0050] The following description, with reference to the accompanying drawings, describes an embodiment of a thermal management component for a vehicle according to this application.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The thermal management component for a vehicle according to the first aspect of this application includes a front-end module 100, a compressor bracket 200, and a compressor 300.
[0052] Along the vehicle's longitudinal direction X, the compressor bracket 200 is mounted on the front-end module 100. It can be understood that the front-end module 100 can support and fix the compressor bracket 200. Fixing the compressor bracket 200 to the front-end module 100 along the vehicle's longitudinal direction X can effectively reduce the transmission of vibration of the compressor 300 during operation to the vehicle body. At the same time, it can prevent abnormal posture of the compressor 300 caused by bracket installation misalignment, and ensure the sealing and reliability of the thermal management system pipeline connection.
[0053] Meanwhile, the integration of the compressor bracket 200 with the front-end module 100 enables a compact layout of the thermal management components, reducing the space occupied in the front compartment. It also helps to shorten the pipe connection length between the compressor 300 and components such as the condenser, reducing energy loss and the risk of pipe leakage.
[0054] In addition, the front-end module 100 forms a stable force transmission path through the vehicle body frame. After the compressor bracket 200 is installed on the front-end module 100, the vibration of the compressor 300 can be dispersed to multiple load-bearing structures of the vehicle body through the front-end module 100, reducing the occurrence of local stress concentration and helping to improve the vibration reduction effect.
[0055] Along the front-rear direction X of the vehicle, the compressor 300 is located on the side of the compressor bracket 200 away from the front-end module 100;
[0056] With this configuration, the vibration and heat radiation of the compressor 300 during operation will not directly affect the precision components (such as sensors and electronic control units) on the front-end module 100, thus avoiding component loosening and signal interference caused by vibration, as well as the impact of heat radiation on the service life of electronic components, and ensuring the overall functional stability of the front-end module 100.
[0057] The thermal management component also includes a first vibration damper 400 and a first fastener 500. The first fastener 500 passes through the compressor bracket 200 and is fixed to the front-end module 100. The first vibration damper 400 is located between the compressor bracket 200 and the first fastener 500, or between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100.
[0058] Understandably, the first fastener 500 passes through the compressor bracket 200 and is fixed to the front-end module 100, which can achieve a rigid connection between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100, reducing the probability of loosening due to vibration of the compressor 300 and impact of vehicle driving; when the first damper 400 is located between the compressor bracket 200 and the first fastener 500, the first damper 400 can absorb the vibration between the first fastener 500 and the compressor bracket 200, reducing vibration transmission; when the first damper 400 is located between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100, it can buffer the relative vibration between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100, block the transmission of vibration to the vehicle body, effectively reduce the NVH noise of the thermal management system, and improve driving comfort.
[0059] In other embodiments, the thermal management assembly further includes a second damper, one of which, along with the first damper 400, is located between the compressor bracket 200 and the first fastener 500, and the other is located between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100.
[0060] Understandably, the vibration transmission between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100 can be reduced first by the first damping component 400 on one side of the compressor bracket 200, and then the vibration transmission between the first fastener 500 and the compressor bracket 200 can be reduced by the second damping component on the other side of the compressor bracket 200. This significantly reduces the transmission of vibration to the vehicle body and cabin, significantly optimizes the vehicle's NVH performance, and improves driving comfort.
[0061] Meanwhile, the second damper and the first damper 400 can disperse the stress on the compressor bracket 200 from different directions, avoid deformation of the compressor bracket 200 caused by local stress concentration, make the connection between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100 tighter, and reduce abnormal noise caused by relative displacement during vehicle operation.
[0062] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The first fastener 500 includes a first nut 510 and a first stud. The first stud passes through the compressor bracket 200 and is fixed to the front-end module 100. The first damping member 400 is sleeved on the first stud and clamped between the first nut 510 and the compressor bracket 200. The second damping member is sleeved on the first stud and clamped between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100.
[0063] In the above scheme, the first stud can serve to connect the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100. Specifically, the first stud can be slidably connected to the compressor bracket 200, the first nut 510 is disposed at one end of the length direction of the first stud, and the other end of the length direction of the first stud can be threadedly engaged with the front-end module 100, thereby realizing the connection between the first fastener 500 and the front-end module 100. At the same time, the first nut 510 can extend radially along the first stud.
[0064] With this configuration, the first damping component 400 can block the transmission of vibration between the first nut 510 and the compressor bracket 200, and the second damping component can block the transmission of vibration between the compressor bracket 200 and the front-end module 100, thereby achieving vibration isolation on both sides of the compressor bracket 200, which greatly reduces the vibration caused by the working vibration of the compressor 300 or the impact of vehicle driving, significantly weakens NVH noise, and significantly improves driving comfort.
[0065] As an example, the first damper 400 and the second damper can be constructed as damping pads made of elastic material.
[0066] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3The thermal management component also includes a third damping member 600 and a second fastener 700. The second fastener 700 passes through the compressor 300 and is fixed to the compressor bracket 200. The third damping member 600 is disposed between the compressor 300 and the compressor bracket 200.
[0067] In the above scheme, the second fastener 700 passes through the compressor 300 and is fixed to the compressor bracket 200, which can firmly connect the compressor 300 and the compressor bracket 200, help to prevent relative displacement between the compressor 300 and the bracket, and ensure the sealing of the thermal management system pipeline connection and the operational stability of the compressor 300.
[0068] The third damping component 600 is directly clamped between the compressor 300 and the bracket. It can absorb the vibration energy generated by the compressor 300 and block the transmission path of the vibration of the compressor 300 to the compressor bracket 200, the front-end module 100 and the vehicle body. It works in conjunction with the first damping component 400 to further reduce the NVH noise of the thermal management system and significantly improve the driving comfort.
[0069] Meanwhile, the third damping component 600 can disperse the load stress at the connection point, avoid deformation of the compressor bracket 200 or damage to the mounting surface of the compressor 300 caused by local stress concentration, and avoid direct friction between the compressor 300 and the compressor bracket 200, reducing wear and corrosion and extending the service life of the compressor 300 and the compressor bracket 200.
[0070] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The compressor 300 includes a compressor body 310 and a mounting part 320. The mounting part 320 is disposed on the compressor body 310. A second fastener 700 passes through the mounting part 320 and is fixed to the compressor bracket 200. A third vibration damping member 600 is sleeved on the second fastener 700 and clamped between the mounting part 320 and the compressor bracket 200.
[0071] In the above scheme, the mounting part 320 can provide a mounting area for the second fastener 700. Compared with setting the mounting structure directly on the compressor body 310, it can ensure the relative positional accuracy of the compressor 300 and the compressor bracket 200, reduce the occurrence of installation offset. At the same time, the mounting part 320 can disperse the clamping stress of the second fastener 700 and the working load of the compressor 300, reducing the probability of stress concentration in the compressor body 310.
[0072] The second fastener 700 passes through the mounting part 320 and is fixed to the bracket, forming a stable rigid connection. This effectively resists the high-frequency vibration of the compressor 300 and the impact of vehicle driving, prevents relative displacement between the compressor 300 and the compressor bracket 200, and ensures operational stability. The third damping component 600 is sleeved on the second fastener 700 and precisely clamped between the mounting part 320 and the bracket. It can directly absorb vibration energy between the compressor 300 and the compressor bracket 200, and work together with the first damping component 400 and / or the second damping component to further reduce NVH noise and significantly improve driving comfort.
[0073] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The mounting part 320 is provided with a plurality of weight-reducing grooves 321. Along the first direction, the plurality of weight-reducing grooves 321 penetrate one side wall of the mounting part 320. The first direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the second fastener 700.
[0074] In the above solution, multiple weight-reducing grooves 321 can significantly reduce the redundant material of the mounting part 320, and reduce the overall weight of the compressor 300 while ensuring the connection strength and load-bearing capacity of the mounting part 320. This helps to reduce the weight of the vehicle and thus reduce energy consumption. The through structure of the weight-reducing grooves 321 can change the stress distribution of the mounting part 320, disperse the compressive stress generated when the second fastener 700 is locked and the vibration stress transmitted when the compressor 300 is working, and avoid deformation or cracking of the mounting part 320 caused by local stress concentration. At the same time, the hollow structure formed by the weight-reducing grooves 321 can weaken the transmission efficiency of vibration in the mounting part 320, further improve the vibration reduction and noise reduction effect, and reduce NVH noise.
[0075] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 The compressor bracket 200 is provided with a first groove 210, the first fastener 500 passes through the bottom wall of the first groove 210 and is fixed to the front module 100, and the first damping member 400 is sandwiched between the bottom wall of the first groove 210 and the first fastener 500.
[0076] In the above scheme, the first groove 210 can form a limiting constraint on the first damping component 400, so as to avoid the vibration of the vehicle or the circumferential movement or displacement of the damping component during the assembly process, and ensure that the damping component is always in the optimal damping force position, thus ensuring a stable and reliable damping effect. The groove structure can wrap the connection part between the damping component and the fastener, reduce the corrosion of the damping component by external dust and liquid, and at the same time avoid the damping component from scratching and interfering with the surrounding pipes and components, thus extending the service life of the damping component.
[0077] Meanwhile, the bottom wall of the first groove 210 provides a flat and precise mounting reference surface for the first fastener 500 and the first damping component 400, which can improve the locking stability of the fastener, avoid stress concentration caused by uneven mounting surface, reduce the alignment difficulty during assembly, and improve assembly efficiency.
[0078] In addition, the recessed design of the first groove 210 can make full use of the space of the compressor bracket 200 without taking up additional external arrangement space around the front-end module 100, thus improving the overall compactness of the thermal management component.
[0079] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 4 The first fastener 500 includes a first nut 510 and a first stud. The first stud passes through the bottom wall of the first groove 210 and is fixed to the front end module 100. The first damping member 400 is sleeved on the first stud and sandwiched between the first nut 510 and the bottom wall of the first groove 210. The first nut 510 is disposed in the first groove 210.
[0080] In the above solution, the first groove 210 provides a dedicated space for the first nut 510, which can prevent the first nut 510 from protruding outward and interfering with surrounding pipes and components, greatly optimize the overall compactness of the thermal management component structure and improve space utilization; at the same time, the first groove 210 can form a circumferential limit on the first nut 510 to prevent the nut from loosening or falling off due to vehicle vibration, and ensure the long-term reliability of the connection structure.
[0081] Meanwhile, the first groove 210 can act as a limit, preventing the first damping component 400 from axially shifting or circumferentially deviating, ensuring that the damping component is always in the optimal stress position, stably absorbing the working vibration of the compressor 300 and the locking stress of the fasteners, and enhancing the vibration reduction and noise reduction effect.
[0082] In addition, the grooved enveloping structure can effectively isolate external dust and liquids from erosion of the nuts, vibration dampers and stud connections, reduce the corrosion of metal parts and the aging and wear of vibration dampers, and extend the service life of the parts.
[0083] In other embodiments, please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 The compressor bracket 200 is provided with a first protrusion 220, which protrudes towards the compressor 300, and the third damping member 600 is sandwiched between the mounting part 320 and the first protrusion 220.
[0084] In the above scheme, the first protrusion 220 can precisely limit the third damping component 600, preventing the damping component from shifting or moving due to the working vibration of the compressor 300 or the bumps of the vehicle, ensuring the damping effect of the third damping component 600, and further reducing NVH noise.
[0085] The raised structure can reduce the contact area of the damping components, making the damping force more concentrated. At the same time, it can distribute the weight load and vibration stress of the compressor 300 to the raised part of the compressor bracket 200, reduce the probability of the compressor body 310 directly transmitting vibration to the compressor bracket 200, and prevent deformation or cracking of the flat area of the compressor bracket 200 due to local stress concentration, thereby strengthening the structural rigidity and service life of the bracket.
[0086] The height and size of the first protrusion 220 can be flexibly adjusted to accommodate the installation gaps of the third damping component 600 with different thicknesses and different models of compressor 300. It can meet diverse assembly needs without modifying the overall structure of the bracket, thus improving the platform adaptability.
[0087] Secondly, embodiments of this application provide a vehicle including a thermal management component according to any of the embodiments.
[0088] The vehicle according to the second aspect of the present application, having the thermal management component proposed in any embodiment, significantly reduces the transmission of vibration to the vehicle body and cabin, significantly optimizes the vehicle's NVH performance, and improves driving comfort.
