[0030] This utility model provides a range extender assembly and a vehicle to reduce the material cost of the range extender assembly. A detailed description is provided below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown in the figure, an embodiment of the present invention provides a range extender assembly, including a motor housing 1, a cover 2, a controller 4, and a motor 6; the motor housing 1 has a first mounting cavity 14, the motor 6 is disposed in the first mounting cavity 14, and one end wall of the motor housing 1 along its axial direction is configured as a common end wall 11; the cover 2 is located on the side of the common end wall 11 away from the first mounting cavity 14 along the axial direction of the motor housing 1, the cover 2 and the common end wall 11 together form a second mounting cavity 21, and the second mounting cavity 21 and the first mounting cavity 14 are sequentially distributed along the axial direction of the motor housing 1, and the controller 4 is disposed in the second mounting cavity 21.
[0032] It should be noted that the peripheral sidewalls of the motor housing 1 are cylindrical, and the axial direction of the motor housing 1 is the axial direction of this cylindrical structure, i.e. Figure 1 The X-axis direction is shown. It should also be noted that the cover 2 can be connected to the common end wall 11 in a detachable manner, such as by bolts, and there are no restrictions here.
[0033] In this embodiment, the cover 2 is located on the side of the common end wall 11 that is axially away from the first mounting cavity 14 along the motor housing 1. The cover 2 and the common end wall 11 together form the second mounting cavity 21 for mounting the controller 4. That is, the controller 4 is surrounded by the common end wall 11 and the cover 2. The common end wall 11 is part of the controller 4 housing, and the common end wall 11 itself is an end wall of the motor housing 1 along its axial direction. In other words, the common end wall 11 is part of the motor housing 6. That is, the housing of the motor 6 and the housing of the controller 4 share the common end wall 11, realizing the design of the motor and controller sharing a housing. This can improve the integration of the range extender assembly, making it smaller and thus reducing the material cost of the range extender assembly. In addition, the second mounting cavity 21 and the first mounting cavity 14 are distributed sequentially along the axial direction of the motor housing 1. This means that the housing of the controller 4 is located in the axial direction of the motor housing 1. Compared with mounting the housing of the controller 4 in the radial direction of the motor housing 1 (refer to...), this is a more efficient design. Figure 2 In the Z-axis direction (as shown), the radial dimension of the entire range extender assembly can be relatively reduced, which is beneficial for installation and use in environments with limited radial space.
[0034] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the cover 2 is provided with an installation groove 22 with the opening facing the common end wall 11, and the common end wall 11 covers the opening of the installation groove 22 to form the second installation cavity 21.
[0035] Specifically, the depth of the mounting groove 22 can be the same as the maximum thickness of the controller 4, so that the controller 4 can be completely accommodated inside the mounting groove 22. The installation process of the controller 4 can be roughly as follows: install the controller 4 in the mounting groove 22, and then install the cover 2 together with the controller 4 to the outside of the common end wall 11. After completing the bolt connection between the cover 2 and the common end wall 11, the controller 4 can be surrounded between the cover 2 and the common end wall 11. In addition, in some other embodiments, a mounting groove can also be provided on the outer surface of the common end wall 11, and the mounting groove can be sealed by the cover 2 to form a closed second mounting cavity. This is not a limitation.
[0036] In this optional embodiment, the cover 2 is provided with a mounting groove 22 that opens toward the common end wall 11. The mounting groove 22 is covered by the common end wall 11 to form a second mounting cavity 21. That is, the controller 4 can be located inside the mounting groove 22. Therefore, after the controller 4 is installed into the mounting groove 22, the controller 4 will not protrude excessively from the opening of the mounting groove 22. This makes it less likely for the controller 4 to be bumped or knocked during the process of taking the cover 2 together with the controller 4 to the common end wall 11 for installation, thus better protecting the controller 4.
[0037] In related technologies, range extender assemblies typically have a cooling water channel and a cooling oil channel. The cooling water channel dissipates heat from the controller, while the cooling oil channel dissipates heat from the motor. This results in the need for two cooling media, cooling water and cooling oil. Furthermore, the cooling water channel and the cooling oil channel must be independent of each other, which increases the complexity of the cooling system of the range extender assembly.
[0038] In view of this, alternatively, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the second mounting cavity 21 is provided with a first inner water channel, and the first mounting cavity 14 is provided with a second inner water channel 34. The first inner water channel and the second inner water channel 34 are connected to form a single water channel structure.
[0039] Understandably, when the cooling water flows through the second mounting cavity 21 along the single-channel structure, it can dissipate heat from the controller 4; when the cooling water flows through the first mounting cavity 14 along the single-channel structure, it can dissipate heat from the motor 6. Furthermore, both ends of the single-channel structure can be connected to the vehicle's cooling pipes to obtain cooling water from the cooling pipes.
[0040] In this optional embodiment, by connecting the first inner water channel in the second mounting cavity 21 with the second inner water channel 34 in the first mounting cavity 14 to form a single water channel structure, the cooling water can dissipate heat on the controller 4 and the motor 6 separately when flowing along the single water channel structure. There is no need to set up separate cooling water channels for cooling the controller and cooling oil channels for cooling the motor at the same time. This can reduce the complexity of the cooling system of the range extender assembly and reduce manufacturing costs. In addition, only a single type of cooling medium is needed to complete the synchronous cooling of the controller and the motor, and the inspection and replacement of the cooling medium is simpler.
[0041] Optionally, such as Figure 2 , Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the outer side of the cover 2 is provided with a first outer water channel 31 and a second outer water channel 32. The end of the first outer water channel 31 passes through the cover 2 and is connected to one end of the first inner water channel. One end of the second outer water channel 32 passes through the cover 2 and is connected to the other end of the first inner water channel. The outer side of the motor housing 1 is provided with a third outer water channel 33. One end of the third outer water channel 33 is connected to the other end of the second outer water channel 32. The other end of the third outer water channel 33 passes through the motor housing 1 and is connected to the second inner water channel 34.
[0042] Specifically, the first outer water channel 31, the first inner water channel, the second outer water channel 32, the third outer water channel 33, and the second inner water channel 34 can be connected sequentially to form a cooling water channel 3. When the cooling water flows along the cooling water channel 3 to the first inner water channel, it dissipates heat from the controller 4, and when it flows to the second inner water channel 34, it dissipates heat from the motor 6. In addition, a water inlet 231 can be provided at the end of the first outer water channel 31 away from the first inner water channel, and a water outlet 13 can be provided on the motor housing 1 to communicate with the second inner water channel 34.
[0043] In this optional embodiment, the first outer water channel 31, the first inner water channel, the second outer water channel 32, the third outer water channel 33, and the second inner water channel 34 are sequentially connected to form a complete water channel structure, so that the cooling water can sequentially cool the controller 4 and the motor 6 when flowing along the water channel structure. Furthermore, for all water channels, only the first inner water channel and the second inner water channel 34 are located inside the range extender assembly, while the remaining first outer water channel 31, second outer water channel 32, and third outer water channel 33 are all located outside the range extender assembly, which can reduce... Minimizes the occupancy of the range extender assembly's internal installation space, ensuring sufficient internal space. Furthermore, the second outer water channel 32 and the third outer water channel 33 connect the first inner water channel and the second inner water channel 34. The second outer water channel 32 is located outside the cover 2, and the third outer water channel 33 is located outside the motor housing 1. In this way, the second outer water channel 32 can avoid the controller 4 in the second mounting cavity 21, and the third outer water channel 33 can avoid the motor 6 in the first mounting cavity 14, making it easier to assemble the range extender assembly.
[0044] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the controller 4 includes a bracket and a water-cooled plate. The bracket is connected to the cover 2, and the water-cooled plate is disposed on the bracket. The first inner water channel includes a flow channel disposed within the water-cooled plate.
[0045] Specifically, the controller 4 may include an inverter brick 41 and a filter 42. The inverter brick 41 consists of a bracket, a water-cooled plate, a bus capacitor, a power module, and a drive unit.
[0046] In this optional embodiment, the first internal water channel includes a flow channel disposed in the water-cooling plate of the controller 4, that is, the first internal water channel is integrated with the controller 4. This can ensure the compactness of the internal structure of the second mounting cavity 21 and improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the controller 4.
[0047] Optionally, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a water jacket 5 is provided in the first mounting cavity 14, and the second inner water channel 34 is formed between the peripheral wall surface of the water jacket 5 and the inner wall surface of the motor housing 1.
[0048] Specifically, the water jacket 5 can be an annular structure surrounding the central axis of the motor housing 1. Its peripheral wall can be provided with an annular groove 51, which is sealed by the inner wall of the motor housing 1 to form a closed second inner water channel 34. The water outlet 13 can be opened at a position radially opposite to the annular groove 51 on the wall of the motor housing 1. Furthermore, a sealing ring 52 can be respectively provided on both sides of the annular groove 51 on the peripheral wall of the water jacket 5 to ensure the sealing between the peripheral wall of the water jacket 5 and the inner wall of the motor housing 1, thereby ensuring that the second inner water channel 34 is sealed and not prone to leakage.
[0049] In this optional embodiment, by providing a water jacket 5 in the first mounting cavity 14, and forming a second inner water channel 34 between the peripheral wall surface of the water jacket 5 and the inner wall surface of the motor housing 1, the second inner water channel 34 can be positioned in the first mounting cavity 14 in a state surrounding the central axis of the motor housing 1, thereby surrounding the periphery of the motor 6 and improving the uniformity of heat dissipation from the circumference of the motor 6.
[0050] Optionally, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the outer side of the cover 2 is provided with a first protrusion 23, and the first external water channel 31 is formed in the first protrusion 23; and / or, the outer side of the cover 2 is provided with a second protrusion 24, and the second external water channel 32 is formed in the second protrusion 24; and / or, the outer wall of the motor housing 1 is provided with a third protrusion 12, and the third external water channel 33 is formed in the third protrusion 12.
[0051] Specifically, in combination Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the inverter brick 41 of the controller 4 can be located in the middle of the second mounting cavity 21. Therefore, in order to ensure that both the first external water channel 31 and the second external water channel 32 are connected to the first internal water channel in the inverter brick 41, the first protrusion 23 can be located on the end face of the cover 2. One end of the first protrusion 23 can be located at the periphery of the end face of the cover 2 to connect with the water inlet 231, and the other end of the first protrusion 23 can extend to the middle of the end face of the cover 2 to connect with the first internal water channel in the inverter brick 41. The second protrusion 24 can be located on both the end face and the side face of the cover 2. One end of the second protrusion 24 can be located at the middle of the end face of the cover 2 to connect with the first internal water channel in the inverter brick 41, and the other end of the second protrusion 24 can pass through the end face and the side face of the cover 2 and extend to the connection position between the cover 2 and the motor housing 1 to connect with the third protrusion 12. Figure 3 As shown, in order to ensure that the second outer water channel 32 and the third outer water channel 33 are connected, the third protrusion 12 can be provided on the peripheral side of the motor housing 1. One end of the third protrusion 12 can be located at the connection position between the cover 2 and the motor housing 1 so as to connect with the second protrusion 24. The other end of the third protrusion 12 can extend to the peripheral side of the motor housing 1 at a position radially opposite to the water jacket 5 so as to connect with the second inner water channel 34.
[0052] In this optional embodiment, the outer side of the cover 2 is provided with a first protrusion 23, and a first outer water channel 31 is formed within the first protrusion 23. This method of forming a water channel with a protrusion can form the first outer water channel without significantly increasing the volume of the cover, ensuring normal flow of cooling water and ensuring that the cover has a small size to reduce material costs. The outer side of the cover 2 is provided with a second protrusion 24, and a second outer water channel 32 is formed within the second protrusion 24. This method of forming a water channel with a protrusion can form the second outer water channel without significantly increasing the volume of the cover, ensuring normal flow of cooling water and ensuring that the cover has a small size to reduce material costs. The outer wall of the motor housing 1 is provided with a third protrusion 12, and a third outer water channel 33 is formed within the third protrusion 12. This method of forming a water channel with a protrusion can form the third outer water channel without significantly increasing the volume of the motor housing, ensuring normal flow of cooling water and ensuring that the motor housing has a small size to reduce material costs.
[0053] Optionally, such as Figure 2 As shown, the controller 4 includes a bracket, a water-cooled plate, a bus capacitor, a power module, and a drive unit. The bracket is connected to the cover 2, the water-cooled plate is disposed on the bracket, and the bus capacitor, the power module, and the drive unit are all mounted on the water-cooled plate.
[0054] The inverter brick 41 of the controller 4 consists of the bracket, water-cooled plate, bus capacitor, power module and drive unit.

[0057] Specifically, such as Figure 5 As shown, the end of the rotor hub 611 away from the common end wall 11 may be provided with a flange 6111. The flange 6111 may have a connecting hole 6112. The connecting hole 6112 can be connected to the connecting hole on the crankshaft flange by bolts, thereby connecting the crankshaft and the rotor hub 611. Additionally, as... Figure 2 As shown, the range extender assembly may further include a motor rotor 612 and a motor stator 62. The motor rotor 612 is fitted onto the rotor hub 611 to form a rotor assembly 61. The motor stator 62 is embedded and connected to the water jacket 5, providing a fixed magnetic field to drive the rotor assembly 61 to rotate. Furthermore, as... Figure 2 As shown, the range extender assembly may also include an eddy current sensor 7, which is disposed on the side of the common end wall 11 near the rotor hub 611 and can be used to perform non-contact measurements on the rotor assembly 61 to detect the operating parameters of the rotor assembly 61.
[0058] In this optional embodiment, one end of the crankshaft is connected to the end of the rotor hub 611 away from the common end wall 11. This allows the rotor hub 611 to be directly connected to the crankshaft, eliminating the need for a dual-mass flywheel and torsional damper between them, which helps to reduce the cost of the range extender assembly.
