[0028] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 This embodiment provides an electric vehicle control module installation structure 100, including a seat bucket 110 and a control box 120 disposed on the upper edge of the seat bucket 110. The control box 120 is provided with a controller 130 and an air switch 140, and the air switch 140 is electrically connected to the controller 130.

[0029] Specifically, when assembling the electric vehicle control module mounting structure 100 of this application, the controller 130 and the air switch 140 are integrated and installed within the control box 120. Compared to existing separate installation methods, this application reduces the number of installation steps. During assembly, the control box 120, with the controller 130 and air switch 140 pre-installed, only needs to be installed as a whole on the upper edge of the seat bucket 110. There is no need to separately position and fix the controller 130 and air switch 140, greatly shortening the installation time and significantly improving the assembly efficiency of the electric vehicle, which is beneficial for the large-scale production of electric vehicles. When the electric vehicle is subjected to vibration or collision, the control box 120 can provide reliable protection for the internal components, extending the service life of the control module and reducing maintenance costs.

[0030] The electric vehicle control module mounting structure 100 provided in this application includes a seat bucket 110 and a control box 120 disposed on the upper edge of the seat bucket 110. The control box 120 houses a controller 130 and an air switch 140, which are electrically connected to the controller 130. By integrating the controller 130 and the air switch 140 into the control box 120, installation steps are reduced, installation time is significantly shortened, and the assembly efficiency of the electric vehicle is significantly improved, which is beneficial for the large-scale production of electric vehicles.

[0031] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the control box 120 includes a box body 121 and a cover 122 covering the box body 121.

[0032] Specifically, the control box 120 includes a box body 121 and a cover 122 covering the box body 121. The box body 121 and the cover 122 adopt a split design, and the cover 122 can be quickly assembled and disassembled with the box body 121 through a snap-fit ​​structure. The snap-fit ​​structure is distributed at the four corners of the box body 121, with two interlocking snaps at each corner. The cover 122 has corresponding slots. When the cover 122 is closed on the box body 121, the snaps can be precisely engaged in the slots to form a stable connection. At the same time, a sealing rubber gasket is also provided on the contact surface between the box body 121 and the cover 122. This rubber gasket has good elasticity and sealing performance, which can effectively prevent external dust, moisture and other impurities from entering the interior of the control box 120.

[0033] The split-type structure design of the control box 120 greatly facilitates the installation, debugging, and maintenance of internal components such as the controller 130 and the air switch 140. When it is necessary to inspect or replace internal components, it is not necessary to disassemble the entire control box 120; simply opening the cover 122 allows quick access to the internal components, significantly improving maintenance efficiency and reducing maintenance costs.

[0034] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the housing 121 is provided with a controller mounting slot 1211 and an air switch mounting slot 1212. The controller 130 is installed through the controller mounting slot 1211, and the air switch 140 is installed through the air switch mounting slot 1212.

[0035] Specifically, both the controller mounting slot 1211 and the air switch mounting slot 1212 are customized according to the external dimensions and structural characteristics of the corresponding components. The controller mounting slot 1211 has multiple positioning protrusions and heat dissipation fins inside. The positioning protrusions precisely define the installation position of the controller 130, preventing displacement within the housing 121; the heat dissipation fins increase the contact area with air, aiding in heat dissipation of the controller 130. The bottom of the air switch mounting slot 1212 is equipped with a shock-absorbing rubber pad, effectively absorbing vibrations generated during the operation of the air switch 140. Guide rails are also provided on the slot walls for convenient and quick installation and removal of the air switch 140. This mounting slot design achieves precise positioning and installation of the controller 130 and the air switch 140, ensuring the accuracy and stability of component installation and preventing poor contact or operational malfunctions caused by improper installation.

[0036] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, an alarm 150 is also installed inside the box 121, and the alarm 150 is electrically connected to the controller 130.

[0037] Furthermore, the housing 121 is also provided with an alarm mounting slot 1213, through which the alarm 150 is installed.

[0038] Specifically, an alarm trigger module is integrated within the controller 130. When an abnormality is detected in the control module, such as overload, short circuit, or overheating, the alarm trigger module immediately sends a signal to activate the alarm 150. The alarm 150 provides a reliable safety warning function for the electric vehicle control module. When an abnormality occurs in the control module, the audible and visual alarm 150 can promptly issue an alarm, alerting operators or maintenance personnel, facilitating quick problem detection and appropriate measures to prevent further escalation of the fault and ensuring the safe operation of the electric vehicle. The design of the alarm mounting slot 1213 provides a stable installation environment for the alarm 150.

[0039] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, a wire harness through hole 1214 is provided at the bottom of the box 121, through which the wire harness is introduced into the box 121.

[0040] Specifically, a rubber protective sleeve is installed inside the wire harness through-hole 1214. The inner wall of the rubber protective sleeve has anti-slip textures, which can tightly wrap the wire harness passing through it, preventing the wire harness from shaking or shifting within the through-hole. At the same time, the outer wall of the rubber protective sleeve fits tightly against the inner wall of the wire harness through-hole 1214, providing a good seal and preventing dust, moisture, etc. from entering the control box 120 through the wire harness through-hole 1214. In addition, fixing clips are also provided around the wire harness through-hole 1214 to secure the wire harness, making the wire harness arrangement more neat and orderly.

[0041] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a switch hole 1221 is also provided on the cover 122, through which the toggle block of the air switch 140 is exposed.

[0042] Specifically, the design of the switch hole 1221 allows operators to conveniently and quickly operate the toggle switch 140 without opening the cover 122, thereby controlling the circuit and improving the convenience and efficiency of operation.

[0043] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, a connector 111 is provided on the upper edge of the seat bucket 110, and the control box 120 is connected through the connector 111.

[0044] Specifically, a connector 111 is provided along the upper edge of the seat 110, through which the control box 120 is connected. The connector 111 is an L-shaped metal bracket, one end of which is fixed to the inner side of the upper edge of the seat 110 by welding or screws, and the other end has a mounting surface. There are four connectors 111, distributed at the four corners of the upper edge of the seat 110, to ensure the balance and stability of the control box 120 during installation. Positioning pins are also provided on the mounting surface of the connector 111, which are used to engage with positioning holes on the control box 120 to achieve precise positioning of the control box 120 during installation.

[0045] In one possible embodiment of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the control box 120 is provided with a connection hole, and the connector 111 is provided with a mounting hole corresponding to the connection hole. The connector 111 and the control box 120 are connected by fasteners passing through the connection hole and the mounting hole.

[0046] Specifically, during installation, first align the connecting holes on the control box 120 with the mounting holes on the connector 111, then pass the bolts through the connecting holes and mounting holes, and finally tighten them with nuts. To prevent the bolts from loosening, a spring washer is installed between the bolt and the nut. The spring washer generates elastic tension, increasing the friction of the bolt connection and ensuring a firm connection. Through the matching connection of the connecting holes, mounting holes, and fasteners, a firm connection is achieved between the control box 120 and the connector 111, ensuring the stability of the control box 120 during the operation of the electric vehicle and effectively preventing the control box 120 from falling off or shifting due to vibration or other factors.

[0047] This application also discloses an electric vehicle, including a vehicle body and a control module mounting structure as described in the foregoing embodiments. This electric vehicle incorporates the same structure and beneficial effects as the control module mounting structure in the foregoing embodiments. The structure and beneficial effects of the control module mounting structure have been described in detail in the foregoing embodiments and will not be repeated here.

[0048] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
