[0027] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in specific embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0028] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the all-terrain vehicle 100 includes a frame 11, body panels 12, running gear 13, powertrain 14, transmission system 15, cooling system 16, and electrical system 17.

[0029] To clearly illustrate the technical solution of this application, the following are also defined: Figure 1 The directions shown are front, rear, left, right, top, and bottom. In this application, the length direction of the frame 11 refers to... Figure 1 In the fore-and-aft direction, the width direction of the frame 11 refers to... Figure 1 The left and right directions in the middle, and the height direction of frame 11 refers to Figure 1 The up and down directions in the middle.

[0030] The frame 11 serves as the basic framework of the all-terrain vehicle 100, supporting the body panel 12, running system 13, powertrain 14, transmission system 15, cooling system 16, and electrical system 17. The body panel 12 is connected to the frame 11, forming a cab 111 between them, providing space for the driver and / or passengers. At least a portion of the running system 13 is located below the frame 11. The powertrain 14 powers the running system 13, driving it and thus enabling the all-terrain vehicle 100 to move. The transmission system 15 is supported by the frame 11 and includes a driveshaft 151. The driveshaft 151 connects the powertrain 14 to the running system 13, enabling the all-terrain vehicle 100 to move. The cooling assembly 16 is supported by the frame 11. The cooling assembly 16 includes a radiator 161 and cooling pipes 162. The radiator 161 is connected to the cooling pipes 162. The radiator 161 is used to cool the cooling water inside the all-terrain vehicle 100. The cooling pipes 162 are used to transport used cooling water to the radiator 161 for cooling. Furthermore, the cooling pipes 162 also transport the cooled water from the radiator 161 to various modules of the all-terrain vehicle 100 for cooling. For example, the cooling pipes 162 transport cooling water from the radiator 161 to the powertrain 14 to cool the powertrain 14. At least a portion of the electrical system 17 is supported by the frame 11. The electrical system 17 can be electrical appliances such as lights and instrument panels on the all-terrain vehicle 100, or it can be components such as a body controller used to control the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0031] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in one implementation, the body panel 12 includes a bottom panel 121 located at the bottom of the driver's compartment. The bottom panel 121 includes a central channel 1211 extending along the length of the frame 11. At least a portion of the driveshaft 151 is located within the central channel 1211. The electrical system 17 includes a wiring harness 171, at least a portion of which is located within the central channel 1211. Furthermore, at least a portion of the cooling pipes 162 of the cooling assembly 16 is also located within the central channel 1211.

[0032] In this embodiment, the drive shaft 151 is at least partially disposed on one side of the central channel 1211, and the connecting harness 171 and the heat dissipation pipe 162 are at least partially disposed on the other side of the central channel 1211 opposite to the drive shaft 151, so as to avoid the connecting harness 171 and the heat dissipation pipe 162 interfering with the operation of the drive shaft 151.

[0033] It should be noted that, when observed from the length direction of the vehicle frame 11, the middle channel 1211 is basically in the shape of an inverted "冖", and the drive shaft 151, the connecting wire harness 171, and the heat dissipation pipeline 162 are all at least partially located in the middle channel 1211. Among them, the middle channel 1211 can be a convex structure formed by the middle part of the bottom covering 121 protruding upward.

[0034] In this embodiment, the connecting wire harness 171 is installed on the heat dissipation pipeline 162, so as to avoid the connecting wire harness 171 interfering with the drive shaft 151, improve the space utilization rate of the middle channel 1211, make the structure of the middle channel 1211 simple and compact, save the space of the all-terrain vehicle 100, and improve the space utilization rate and structural compactness of the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0035] As an implementation method, the heat dissipation pipeline 162 and the drive shaft 151 are distributed along the width direction of the vehicle frame 11, that is, the heat dissipation pipeline 162 and the drive shaft 151 are respectively located on both sides inside the middle channel 1211, and the connecting wire harness 171 is located above the heat dissipation pipeline 162, so as to avoid the connecting wire harness 171 and the heat dissipation pipeline 162 interfering with the normal operation of the drive shaft 151, further improve the space utilization rate of the middle channel 1211, and make the structure of the all-terrain vehicle 100 more compact.

[0036] As an implementation method, both the heat dissipation pipeline 162 and the connecting wire harness 171 at least partially extend along the length direction of the vehicle frame 11, so that the extension directions of the heat dissipation pipeline 162 and the connecting wire harness 171 are consistent with the extension direction of the middle channel 1211, and further at least part of the heat dissipation pipeline 162 and the connecting wire harness 171 can be installed in the middle channel 1211, so as to improve the space utilization rate of the all-terrain vehicle 100 and improve the structural compactness of the all-terrain vehicle 100.

[0037] As Figure 6 shown, as an implementation method, the heat dissipation assembly 16 includes a fixing member 163. The fixing member 163 is fixed on the heat dissipation pipeline 162, and the fixing member 163 is also connected to the connecting wire harness 171. Specifically, one end of the fixing member 163 is fixedly connected to the heat dissipation pipeline 162, and the other end of the fixing member 163 is connected to the connecting wire harness 171, so as to fix the connecting wire harness 171 on the heat dissipation pipeline 162 and improve the connection stability of the connecting wire harness 171 fixed on the heat dissipation pipeline 162.

[0038] As one implementation, at least a portion of the fastener 163 extends along the height direction of the frame 11. The lower end of the fastener 163 is fixedly connected to the heat dissipation pipe 162, and the upper end of the fastener 163 is connected to the connecting harness 171, thereby fixing the connecting harness 171 above the heat dissipation pipe 162, reducing the occupancy of the connecting harness 171 in the width direction of the central channel 1211, and further preventing the connecting harness 171 and the heat dissipation pipe 162 from interfering with the operation of the drive shaft 151.

[0039] like Figure 6 As shown, in one implementation, the electrical system 17 includes a connector 172 for fixing the connecting wire harness 171. Specifically, at least a portion of the connector 172 is sleeved on the connecting wire harness 171, and the connector 172 is also connected to the fixing member 163, thereby enabling the connecting wire harness 171 to be fixedly installed above the heat dissipation pipe 162 via the connector 172.

[0040] More specifically, the connector 172 includes a sleeve portion 1721 and a snap-fit ​​connector 1722. The sleeve portion 1721 is sleeved onto the connecting wire harness 171, and is used to tighten the connecting wire harness 171, preventing it from becoming tangled and further reducing the space occupied by the connecting wire harness 171. The snap-fit ​​connector 1722 engages with the fixing member 163, and the other side of the snap-fit ​​connector 1722 connects to the sleeve portion 1721, thereby fixing the connecting wire harness 171 above the heat dissipation pipe 162, further improving the stability of the connecting wire harness 171 fixed to the heat dissipation pipe 162.

[0041] like Figure 7 As shown, in one implementation, the all-terrain vehicle 100 also includes an electrical box 18 and a seat assembly 19, both of which are supported by the frame 11. The seat assembly 19 provides support for the driver and / or passengers. At least a portion of the electrical system 17 is installed within the electrical box 18, integrating at least a portion of the electrical system 17 within it. In this embodiment, the electrical box 18 is located below the seat assembly 19, which is detachably connected to the frame 11. This facilitates maintenance personnel's access to inspect the electrical system 17 within the electrical box 18 after the seat assembly 19 is removed from the frame 11, and also reduces the wiring length between the components of the electrical system 17.

[0042] Specifically, the seat assembly 19 includes a seat cushion 191, which is detachably connected to the frame 11.

[0043] More specifically, the seat assembly 19 includes front seats and rear seats, and optionally, in this embodiment, the electrical box 18 is installed under the rear seats.

[0044] like Figure 8As shown, in one implementation, the body panel 12 includes a maintenance cover 122 and an interior trim panel 123, both located below the seat assembly 19. The interior trim panel 123 is supported by the frame 11, and an accommodating space is formed around it. An electrical box 18 is installed within this accommodating space and is connected to the frame 11 for secure mounting. The interior trim panel 123 has an operating opening 1231, which is covered by the maintenance cover 122, which is detachably connected to the interior trim panel 123. When it is necessary to inspect the electrical system 17 in the electrical box 18, the maintenance personnel can remove the seat assembly 19 from the frame 11, that is, remove the seat cushion 191 from the frame 11. After removing the maintenance cover 122, the electrical system 17 in the electrical box 18 can be inspected through the operating port 1231 on the interior trim 123. Viewed from the height of the frame 11, the operating port 1231 overlaps with the electrical box 18 at least partially, so that the maintenance personnel can inspect the electrical system 17 in the electrical box 18 through the operating port 1231.

[0045] like Figure 9 As shown, in one implementation, the electrical system 17 includes a battery 173, a fuse box 174, a charging fuse 175, and a starting relay 176. The fuse box 174, charging fuse 175, and starting relay 176 are all electrically connected to the battery 173. The battery 173 supplies power to the all-terrain vehicle 100. The fuse box 174 contains fuses to protect the circuit. The charging fuse 175 protects the battery 173 during charging. The starting relay 176 controls the on / off state of the motor.

[0046] Specifically, the battery 173, fuse box 174, charging fuse 175 and starting relay 176 are all installed in the electrical box 18. This arrangement facilitates maintenance personnel in repairing the above-mentioned components and also reduces the length of the wiring harness between the components.

[0047] According to the above description, the all-terrain vehicle 100 provided in this application has its connecting harness 171 of the electrical system 17 and the heat dissipation pipe 162 of the heat dissipation assembly 16 installed in the central channel 1211, and the connecting harness 171 is fixedly installed above the heat dissipation pipe 162, avoiding interference of the connecting harness 171 with the drive shaft 151, thereby improving the space utilization of the all-terrain vehicle 100 and improving the structural compactness of the all-terrain vehicle 100; furthermore, by centrally arranging components such as the battery 173, fuse box 174, charging fuse 175, and starter relay 176 in the electrical box 18, it is convenient for maintenance personnel to inspect the above components, and the length of the wiring harness between the above components can also be reduced. At the same time, the electrical box 18 is arranged below the seat assembly 19, which makes it convenient for maintenance personnel to inspect the electrical system 17 in the electrical box 18 after the seat assembly 19 is removed from the frame 11.

[0048] It should be understood that those skilled in the art can make improvements or modifications based on the above description, and all such improvements and modifications should fall within the protection scope of the appended claims.
