[0035] In summary, through the integrated design of various components, the panel assembly is divided into a first side panel and a second side panel.

The panel assembly occupies less space and is lighter, while the existing connecting pipes are long and numerous. This reduces the overall vehicle weight and the number of vehicle parts, such as connecting pipes and fasteners. It also saves space in the vehicle layout, reduces the installation complexity of its sub-components, and makes installation convenient and quick, thereby reducing the overall vehicle cost.

The first side plate 42 in the plate assembly has a kettle interface 13 at the position corresponding to the eleventh flow channel 51. The kettle interface 13 is used to connect the kettle 25.

[0064] In this embodiment, the first side plate 42 and the second side plate 43 are interlocked to form a coolant flow channel. Specifically, combined with Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, the coolant flow channel includes a fourth coolant flow channel 44, and a first water-cooled condenser inlet 14 for connecting to the first water-cooled condenser is provided on the second side plate 43 at a position corresponding to the fourth coolant flow channel 44.

Specifically, in conjunction with Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 5 As shown, the coolant flow channel also includes a sixth coolant flow channel 46, and a battery inlet 9 is provided on the first side plate 42 at the position corresponding to the sixth coolant flow channel 46.

[0067] In summary, through the integrated design of various components, the panel assembly is divided into a first side panel 42 and a second side panel 43. After injection molding, the first side panel 42 and the second side panel 43 are assembled using a hot plate welding process. The integrated structure design of the panel assembly replaces the existing connecting pipes of new energy vehicles. The panel assembly occupies less space and is lighter, while the existing connecting pipes are long and numerous. This reduces the overall vehicle weight and the number of vehicle parts, such as connecting pipes and fasteners. It also saves space in the vehicle layout, reduces the installation complexity of its sub-components, and makes installation convenient and quick, thereby reducing the overall vehicle cost.

[0068] Furthermore, by optimizing the structural design of the board assembly and avoiding the use of existing water pipe connections, the flow resistance of the coolant system is reduced. The system flow resistance of the three-way electronic water valve is <5 kPa, and that of the five-way water valve 28 is <10 kPa. The three-way electronic water valve and the five-way water valve 28 of this application adopt an external structural design. This structure and installation method significantly improve the internal leakage performance of the product module assembly, achieving a value of <10 ml / min. This reduces heat loss in the product module assembly system and improves the efficiency of product functions. Therefore, this integrated thermal management module product structure design reduces the system flow resistance of the product module assembly, reduces the pressure loss of the new energy vehicle system, and simultaneously improves the energy efficiency, comfort, and driving range of the new energy vehicle.

[0069] In addition, the integrated structural design mounts the water pump and valves onto the board assembly, replacing the existing vehicle space layout and connecting pipeline technology with the board assembly structure. It can also be applied to the vehicle's motor system circuit to achieve its high-temperature cooling and heating functions.

[0070] It is worth noting that: (1) the kettle 25 and the plate assembly are welded separate structures, but the concept of this application may also be realized by integrating the kettle 25 and the plate assembly into a single structure. (2) the three-way water valve 26 and the five-way water valve in this application adopt an external design structure, but the concept of this application may also be realized by an internal structure.

[0071] Different opening methods can be selected for the five-way water valve and the three-way water valve 26 mentioned above to achieve different functional modes. The four functional modes are described in detail below:

[0072] Functional Mode 1: Combination Figure 7 As shown, the heating circuit and the battery circuit are connected in series, as described in (1), and the motor circuit is short-circuited, as described in (2).
