[0028] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below.
[0029] The following is for reference. Figures 1-4 The present invention describes an on-board power supply system 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention, and also proposes a vehicle.
[0030] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle power supply system 100 of this utility model embodiment includes: an engine 10, a first generator 11, and a second generator 12.
[0031] An output shaft is provided on the engine 10. A first generator 11 is mounted on the engine 10 and is drivenly connected to the output shaft. A second generator 12 is mounted on the engine 10 and spaced apart from the first generator 11. The second generator 12 is selectively drivenly connected to the output shaft. Specifically, the engine 10 serves as a power source, providing power to the first generator 11 and the second generator 12. The first generator 11 and the second generator 12 can supply power to the vehicle's own electrical equipment 23 and the vehicle's added electrical equipment 24, respectively. Furthermore, the second generator 12 has a higher power output, enabling it to simultaneously meet the power needs of both the vehicle's own electrical equipment 23 and the vehicle's added electrical equipment 24.
[0032] Therefore, the first generator 11 and the second generator 12 can supply power to the vehicle's own electrical equipment 23 and the vehicle's added electrical equipment 24, respectively. The second generator 12 has a higher power output, which can simultaneously meet the power needs of the vehicle's own electrical equipment 23 and the vehicle's added electrical equipment 24.
[0033] Reference Figure 2 As shown, a first pulley 13 and a second pulley 14 are provided on the output shaft. Both the first pulley 13 and the second pulley 14 rotate coaxially with the output shaft. The first pulley 13 is driven by the first generator 11, and the second pulley 14 is driven by the second generator 12. The second pulley 14 is selectively driven by the output shaft, and the diameter of the second pulley 14 is larger than the diameter of the first pulley 13. Specifically, the engine 10 is also provided with a double-layer adapter pulley, which consists of an inner pulley and an outer pulley. The inner pulley is the first pulley 13, which is driven by the first generator 11, and the outer pulley is the second pulley 14, which is driven by the second generator 12.
[0034] The engine 10 belt is connected to the crankshaft pulley of the engine 10. After the engine 10 starts, the crankshaft rotates, and the engine 10 drives the first generator 11 to rotate and generate electricity. The first generator 11 is connected to the first pulley 13, and the second generator 12 is connected to the second pulley 14. The first pulley 13 and the second pulley 14 are coaxially connected to the output shaft of the engine 10. After the engine 10 starts, it can also drive the second generator 12 to rotate and generate electricity. By increasing the diameter of the second pulley 14, the transmission ratio is greatly increased, which can increase the speed of the second generator 12 when the engine 10 is idling, thereby increasing the power generation.
[0035] Furthermore, the engine 10 is equipped with a clutch, which is located between the output shaft and the second pulley 14. The clutch is configured to selectively engage between the output shaft and the second pulley 14. That is, when the clutch is disengaged, the second pulley 14 does not drive the second generator 12 to rotate, the outer pulley system of the transfer pulley stops rotating, reducing mechanical losses of the engine 10, and the second generator 12 does not generate electricity. When the clutch is engaged, the second pulley 14 drives the second generator 12 to rotate, and the second generator 12 generates electricity. The clutch can be an electronically controlled clutch.
[0036] Reference Figure 3 As shown, the vehicle power supply system 100 also includes: a controller and a first switch, the controller and the first switch being electrically connected, and the controller and the clutch being electrically connected. The controller is configured to control the clutch to disengage the output shaft and the second pulley 14 when the first switch is triggered. When the special vehicle is not using the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24, in order to reduce the mechanical losses generated by the engine 10 driving the second generator 12, a first switch is installed on the vehicle dashboard, controlled by the controller, and connected to the adapter pulley via a wiring harness. When the first switch is disconnected, the electronically controlled clutch is in a disengaged state, the second pulley 14 does not rotate with the crankshaft pulley of the engine 10, and the second generator 12 does not generate electricity; when the first switch is closed, the clutch is in a engaged state, the second pulley 14 rotates with the crankshaft pulley of the engine 10, and the second generator 12 generates electricity.
[0037] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the first generator 11 is equipped with a third pulley, and the second generator 12 is equipped with a fourth pulley. A first belt 17 is installed between the first pulley 13 and the third pulley, and a second belt 18 is installed between the second pulley 14 and the fourth pulley. The first belt 17 and the second belt 18 can be elastic belts, connecting the pulleys to achieve the transmission between the first generator 11, the second generator 12, and the double-layer adapter pulley. The use of elastic belts and double-layer adapter pulleys for transmission connection results in a simple and compact overall structure, easy maintenance, and high reliability.
[0038] Reference Figure 4As shown, the vehicle power supply system 100 also includes a controller and a second switch, which are electrically connected. The controller is also electrically connected to the engine 10. The controller is configured to increase the engine speed of the engine 10 when the second switch is triggered. Normally, when the engine 10 is idling, the second generator 12 provides limited current. However, some special vehicles require prolonged use of the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24 while idling. If the power supply system for the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24 cannot meet the power demand of the onboard equipment, the second battery 22 will be depleted. In this case, it is necessary to further increase the engine speed of the engine 10 to enable the second generator 12 to provide sufficient current. The specific measures to increase the idling speed are as follows: A second switch is installed on the vehicle dashboard and connected to the controller via a wiring harness. The controller has a preset function to increase the idling speed. When a special vehicle needs to use the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24 for a prolonged period while idling, the driver presses the second switch, outputting a signal to the controller. The controller receives and activates the function to increase the idling speed, increasing the engine speed of the engine 10, thereby increasing the power output of the second generator 12. This method is simple to operate and provides power to the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24 at a low cost.
[0039] Reference Figure 2 As shown, the vehicle-mounted power supply system 100 further includes: a first bracket 15, which is fixed to the engine 10, and a first generator 11 mounted on the first bracket 15; and a second bracket 16, which is fixed to the engine 10, and a second generator 12 mounted on the second bracket 16. That is, the first generator 11 is mounted on the engine 10 via the first bracket 15, and the second generator 12 is mounted on the engine 10 via the second bracket 16, reducing modifications to the engine 10 structure while ensuring the stability of both the first generator 11 and the second generator 12.
[0040] Reference Figure 1 As shown, the vehicle power supply system 100 also includes a first battery 21, which is electrically connected to a first generator 11. The first battery 21 is used to supply power to the vehicle's own electrical equipment 23. Specifically, passenger cars generally use a 12V power supply system. The first generator 11 and the first battery 21 are both 12V. The power supply system for the vehicle's own electrical equipment 23 mainly consists of the first generator 11, the first battery 21, and the wiring harness connecting these parts. The first generator 11 rotates to supply power to the vehicle's own electrical equipment 23 and to charge the first battery 21.
[0041] The vehicle power supply system 100 also includes a second battery 22, which is electrically connected to a second generator 12. The second battery 22 is used to supply power to the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24. The power supply system for the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24 mainly consists of the second generator 12, the second battery 22, and the wiring harness connecting the various parts. Since the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24 is a 24V system, the second generator 12 and the second battery 22 are also 24V. The second generator 12 rotates to supply power to the vehicle-mounted electrical equipment 24 and to charge the second battery 22.
[0042] A vehicle according to a second aspect of the present invention includes an on-board power supply system 100.
