Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of automotive parts, specifically relating to an integrated fuse box and its power distribution circuit. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, the four key requirements for automobiles—electrification, connectivity, intelligence, and sharing—have placed higher demands on the integration of automotive parts. Furthermore, with the rapid development of the logistics industry, competition in the light commercial vehicle market is becoming increasingly fierce. Low-cost design and development of automotive parts are better suited to meet the severe challenges of the market, and the power distribution structure requires a high degree of integration. The overall vehicle electrical system is complex, especially with the market favoring pure electric and hybrid trucks, which have added more electrical appliances to the vehicle. The smaller and shorter front compartment space of light commercial vehicles compared to passenger cars presents even greater challenges to circuit and component design. To meet the functional requirements of various electrical appliances, different demands are needed for fuses and relays, and higher requirements are placed on space, cost, and integration.
[0003] Traditional power distribution systems consist of a first-stage fuse and a second-stage fuse. The battery power line from the DC power supply is connected to the first-stage fuse, and the DC power is then transmitted to the second-stage fuse, forming a first-stage and second-stage power distribution structure. This traditional power distribution circuit requires two fuses, which is severely limited by space and cannot meet cost requirements. Therefore, there is an urgent need for a fuse box and a matching power distribution circuit to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned problems, this utility model provides a fuse box and power distribution circuit with high integration, versatility, and space-saving design for the front compartment, taking into account both cost and space requirements. The specific technical solution is as follows:
[0005] An integrated fuse box is characterized by comprising a main body, an upper box, and a lower box. The lower box opens downwards. The main body includes terminals, a copper conductor, a blade fuse, a slow-blow fuse, a 30A relay, and a 70A relay. The terminals secure four stud fuses to the main body via nuts, distributing the first-stage T30 electrical connection and the second-stage T30 electrical connection of the vehicle's power supply. The blade fuse, slow-blow fuse, 30A relay, and 70A relay are integrated modularly within the main body. The copper conductor is positioned below the stud fuses. A rectangular cavity is provided on one side of the main body, and correspondingly, a rectangular groove is provided on the lower box. The cavity and groove interlock to form the outlet of the fuse terminals. This is used to connect upstream power circuits and downstream electrical equipment or the next level of power distribution; simultaneously, the fuse box provides overall protection for the four terminals.
[0006] Furthermore, the main body and the lower box are interlocked by a locking mechanism to form the inner cavity of the fuse box, and the power supply circuits are interconnected within the inner cavity.
[0007] Furthermore, eight terminals are arranged at intervals inside the fuse box. The first and fifth terminals are assigned to the first-level T30 electrical connection of the vehicle power supply, and the second, third, fourth, sixth, seventh, and eighth terminals are assigned to the second-level T30 electrical connection of the vehicle power supply. The first terminal is connected to the battery, and the fifth terminal is connected to the generator.
[0008] Furthermore, a circular cable outlet is provided at the bottom of the lower box, with a first cable tie hole and a second cable tie hole provided at the cable outlet to fix the downward-facing cable bundle and prevent the cable bundle from shifting due to relative movement.
[0009] Furthermore, the copper conductor block is provided in three parts. The first copper conductor block has four holes, three of which are vertical and one is horizontal, which are connected to the positive terminal of the T15 power supply. After the generator starts working, the circuit of the electrical equipment that is separated is a short-time working circuit, and it is a separate three-way protection circuit that can withstand peak current. The second copper conductor block has four holes in the horizontal direction, and the third copper conductor block has four holes, three of which are vertical and one is horizontal, which are connected to the positive terminal of the T30 power supply. The traditional first-level power supply protection circuit and the second-level power supply protection circuit are retained.
[0010] Furthermore, the relay socket inside the integrated fuse box is configured with 5 connection sockets.
[0011] This utility model has a downward opening in the lower box body, forming a downward wiring space for the fuse box. It is arranged in the Z-axis of the whole vehicle, occupying less space in the X and Y axes. It also adopts a modular design structure, maximizing platform universality and cost savings, and adapting to different configuration requirements.
[0012] This invention utilizes a novel power distribution circuit, including a T30 positive power connector, a T15 positive power connector, a first-stage power supply protection circuit, and a second-stage power supply protection circuit. The first-stage power supply circuit is split via copper conductors, retaining the long-term operating equipment within it. Within the existing fuse box space, the most suitable and cost-effective fuse protection circuit is selected. The separated equipment circuits, which operate for short periods, are matched with fuse protection circuits capable of withstanding peak current. In vehicle energy management, this distinguishes non-long-term operating functional circuits such as steering, braking, and door locks, reducing the total energy of the first-stage power supply circuit and optimizing the fuse box structure. This enables more efficient downstream energy management and allows for optimal fuse and wire selection. Attached Figure Description
