Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The utility model belongs to the related technical field of vehicle power distribution, in particular, to a vehicle passenger cabin and vehicle. BACKGROUND

[0002] The vehicle passenger cabin is usually configured with a primary power distribution module and a secondary power distribution module. The primary power distribution module mainly supplies power to modules with current greater than 60 Ah such as fans, steering gears, and brakes. The secondary power distribution module mainly supplies power to modules with current lower than 60 Ah such as headlamps, horns, ambient lights, and windscreen wipers.

[0003] At present, the secondary power distribution module of the existing vehicle is usually configured as a passenger cabin fuse box. Specifically, the passenger cabin fuse box is installed below the air conditioner main unit in the Z direction of the vehicle in a vertical manner. However, due to the structural characteristics of the passenger cabin fuse box, the peak current cannot be controlled when the passenger cabin fuse box is working. As a result, some low-power electrical appliances originally only need a 0.13 square wire harness, but considering the peak current, a redundant design of a 0.22 square wire harness is needed, which increases the amount of wire harness and improves the cost. Moreover, when the passenger cabin fuse box is used subsequently, the staff needs to replace the fuse in the passenger cabin fuse box, which is high in maintenance cost. In addition, the vertically arranged passenger cabin fuse box has a small distance with the air conditioner main unit in the Z direction of the vehicle, which makes the air conditioner main unit prone to collision with the passenger cabin fuse box due to the operation error of the staff during assembly, which increases the complexity of the assembly of the air conditioner main unit.

[0037] The vehicle passenger compartment 100 included in this application specifically refers to a vehicle passenger compartment applied to new energy vehicles.

[0038] like Figure 1 As shown, an embodiment of this application provides a vehicle passenger compartment 100, including a carrier 10, a passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20, and an air conditioning unit 30. The passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 is laid flat along the X-direction of the vehicle and connected to the carrier 10. The air conditioning unit 30 is disposed above the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 in the Z-direction of the vehicle, and a first preset gap is formed between the air conditioning unit 30 and the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 along the Z-direction of the vehicle. Here, the carrier 10 is configured as a central channel sheet metal. It should be noted that the specific structure and working principle of the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 can adopt the conventional method of existing vehicles, and will not be elaborated here.

[0039] As can be seen from the above, the vehicle passenger compartment 100 of this application is applied in a vehicle. By utilizing the structural characteristics and arrangement of the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20, on the one hand, the operating current of the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 can be precisely controlled to reduce the diameter of the corresponding wiring harness on the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20, thereby reducing costs and weight and providing maintenance-free operation; on the other hand, the distance between the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 and the air conditioning unit 30 in the Z direction of the vehicle can be increased to prevent the air conditioning unit 30 from colliding with the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 during assembly, thereby facilitating the assembly of the air conditioning unit 30.

[0040] In one embodiment, the first preset gap between the intelligent power distribution box 20 in the passenger compartment and the air conditioning unit 30 is set to D, where D ≥ 30 mm.

That is, the passenger compartment smart power distribution box 20 and the waterproof cover 40 can be mounted to the carrier 10 on the mounting base.

[0043] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the mounting bracket 50 has flanges 51 protruding upwards from two opposite sides, and the flanges 51 are disposed on the outer side of the intelligent power distribution box 20 in the passenger compartment. A first mounting point 501 is formed on the flange 51, and the waterproof cover 40 can be connected to the mounting bracket 50 through the first mounting point 501 on the flange 51. Here, the waterproof cover 40 is fixed to the mounting bracket 50 by a screw connection between the first connector 101 passing through the first mounting point 501 on the flange 51 and the waterproof cover 40, which facilitates the assembly and connection of the waterproof cover 40 on the mounting bracket 50. It should be noted that the first connector 101 can specifically be configured as a screw, bolt, etc. It is understood that in other embodiments, the first connector 101 can also be fixed to the waterproof cover 40 by snap-fit ​​or welding, which will not be elaborated here.

[0044] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the number of flanges 51 is configured to be four, and the four flanges 51 are arranged at the four corners of the waterproof cover 40, so that the waterproof cover 40 and the mounting bracket 50 form four fixing points, which can improve the stability of the waterproof cover 40 when assembled on the mounting bracket 50. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of flanges 51 may also be configured to be two, three, five, or even more, which will not be elaborated here.

Specifically, the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 can be fixed to the mounting bracket 50 by a screw connection between a second connector 102 passing through the second mounting point 502 and the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20. This facilitates the assembly and connection of the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 on the mounting bracket 50. It should be noted that the aforementioned second connector 102 can be specifically configured as a screw, bolt, etc. It is understood that in other embodiments, the second connector 102 can also be fixed to the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 by snap-fit ​​or welding, which will not be elaborated here.

[0046] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the number of second connectors 102 is configured to be four, and the four second connectors 102 are arranged at the four corners of the mounting bracket 50, so that four fixed points are formed between the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 and the mounting bracket 50, which can improve the stability of the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 when assembled on the mounting bracket 50. It can be understood that in other embodiments, the number of second connectors 102 may also be configured to be two, three, five, or even more, which will not be elaborated here.

[0047] like Figures 2 to 4 As shown, in one embodiment, the mounting bracket 50 is bent to form an extending rib 52, which abuts against the carrier 10. A third mounting point 503 is formed on the portion of the extending rib 52 that abuts against the carrier 10, and the mounting bracket 50 can be connected to the carrier 10 through the third mounting point 503. Here, the third mounting point 503 on the extending rib 52 is located below the mounting bracket 50 in the Z-direction of the vehicle. Specifically, the mounting bracket 50 can be fixed to the carrier 10 by a screw connection between a third connector 103 passing through the third mounting point 503 and the carrier 10, thus facilitating the assembly and connection of the mounting bracket 50 on the carrier 10. It should be noted that the third connector 103 can be configured as a screw, bolt, etc. It is understood that in other embodiments, the third connector 103 can also be fixed to the carrier 10 by snap-fit ​​or welding, which will not be elaborated here.

[0048] like Figures 2 to 4As shown, in one embodiment, the number of third connectors 103 is configured to be four. The four third connectors 103 can be pressed and fixed to the carrier 10 by the four extending ribs 52 on the mounting bracket 50. It is understood that in other embodiments, the number of third connectors 103 may also be two, three, five, or even more, or the mounting bracket 50 may be fixed to the carrier 10 by welding, which will not be elaborated here. It should be noted that the mounting bracket 50 in this embodiment can be installed on the carrier 10 in a flat manner in the vehicle X direction by extending ribs 52 with different bending heights in the Z direction of the vehicle.

[0049] It should be noted that the first connector 101, the second connector 102, and the third connector 103 are arranged at different positions on the mounting bracket 50, and there is sufficient gap between the first connector 101, the second connector 102, and the third connector 103 so that the first connector 101, the second connector 102, and the third connector 103 do not interfere with each other on the mounting bracket 50, so as to meet the usage requirements of fixing the mounting bracket 50 on the carrier 10 and fixing the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 and the waterproof cover 40 on the mounting bracket 50.

[0050] As shown in the figure, in one embodiment, the vehicle passenger compartment 100 also includes a front compartment intelligent power distribution box (not shown), wherein the supply current of the front compartment intelligent power distribution box is greater than the supply current of the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20. Utilizing the structural characteristics of the front compartment intelligent power distribution box, its operating current can be precisely controlled, thereby reducing the diameter of the corresponding wiring harness on the front compartment intelligent power distribution box, resulting in cost and weight reduction, and maintenance-free operation. Here, the supply current of the front compartment intelligent power distribution box is higher than 60Ah, while the supply current of the passenger compartment intelligent power distribution box 20 is lower than 60Ah.
