Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of heat dissipation device technology, and in particular to an integrated heat dissipation system for an electric loader. Background Technology

[0002] Electric loaders are engineering machinery that use electricity as a power source. They are mainly used for material handling, loading, unloading, and stacking operations, and are widely used in construction, mining, ports, logistics, and other fields. Compared with traditional diesel-powered loaders, electric loaders have significant advantages in environmental protection, energy efficiency, and noise control, and are one of the important directions for the electrification transformation of engineering machinery.

[0003] Electric loaders are equipped with various drive systems, such as motor and electronic control systems, hydraulic circuit systems, and air conditioning systems, along with battery packs to provide power. They generally require cooling for the motor controllers, travel motors, hydraulic motors, hydraulic oil, and battery packs included in these systems or components. For example, water-cooled radiators are used to cool the motor controllers, travel motors, hydraulic motors, and battery packs, while hydraulic oil coolers cool the hydraulic oil. Furthermore, these radiators and condensers require cooling fans for further cooling to ensure effective heat dissipation.

[0004] Existing electric loaders typically have separate cooling fans for water-cooled radiators, hydraulic oil radiators, and condensers. This means the motor and electronic control cooling systems, hydraulic oil cooling systems, and air conditioning cooling systems operate independently, leading to the following drawbacks: First, low space utilization, as independent cooling modules affect the overall machine's compactness; second, redundant energy consumption, with multiple cooling fan systems increasing power loss; third, limited cooling efficiency, as the separate layout easily leads to turbulent airflow; and fourth, difficult maintenance, as the split design results in complex piping and a higher failure rate.

Furthermore, the technical features involved in the different embodiments of this utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as they do not conflict with each other.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 4 A preferred embodiment of this utility model provides an integrated heat dissipation system for an electric loader, which mainly includes a water-cooled radiator 10, a hydraulic oil radiator 20, a condenser 30, a cooling fan assembly 40, and a mounting bracket 50.

[0033] The water-cooled radiator 10 is equipped with a water pump to deliver its internal circulating coolant to components such as the motor controller 71, the walking motor 72, the hydraulic motor 73, and the battery pack 74, and then back to the water-cooled radiator 10 to achieve cooling of the motor controller 71, the walking motor 72, the hydraulic motor 73, and the battery pack 74.

[0034] The hydraulic oil cooler 20 is used to cool the oil. For example, in a loader, the tipping cylinder 75 and the boom cylinder 76 are used to control the tipping of the bucket and the boom. The working pump 77 sends the oil from the tank 78 to the tipping cylinder 75 and / or the boom cylinder 76 through the multi-way valve 79, and then into the hydraulic oil cooler 20 to cool the oil.

[0035] The condenser 30 is used to convert the high-temperature and high-pressure superheated vapor of the air conditioning system 80 into a liquid working fluid. In one exemplary embodiment, the air conditioning system 80 first uses an electric compressor 81 to strongly compress the low-temperature and low-pressure vapor from the evaporator outlet to increase its pressure and temperature, forming high-temperature and high-pressure superheated vapor. Subsequently, these strongly compressed gases enter the condenser 30 and release a large amount of energy hidden inside, becoming a liquid working fluid (usually Freon). At the same time, it also becomes cooler, achieving refrigeration. The liquid working fluid then returns to the air conditioning system 80 for circulation.

[0036] The cooling fan assembly 40 includes at least one cooling fan 41 for cooling the water-cooled radiator 10, the hydraulic oil radiator 20, and the condenser 30. The water-cooled radiator 10, the hydraulic oil radiator 20, and the condenser 30 share a single cooling fan assembly 40. Using a single cooling fan assembly 40 to cool the water-cooled radiator 10, the hydraulic oil radiator 20, and the condenser 30 offers several advantages: first, it improves space utilization and makes the overall cooling module more compact; second, a single fan system reduces power loss; third, a single fan system is less prone to turbulent airflow, ensuring efficient cooling; and fourth, the integrated cooling system design simplifies the structure, reduces piping, and lowers the failure rate.

[0037] In a preferred embodiment, the water-cooled radiator 10, the hydraulic oil radiator 20, the condenser 30, and the cooling fan assembly 40 are all mounted on the mounting bracket 50, with the water-cooled radiator 10 and the hydraulic oil radiator 20 positioned between the condenser 30 and the cooling fan assembly 40 to achieve a stacked structure. The negative pressure airflow from the cooling fan assembly 40 drives the airflow through the water-cooled radiator 10, the hydraulic oil radiator 20, and the condenser 30. Specifically, the airflow is driven from one side of the condenser 30, passing through the condenser 30 and the water-cooled radiator 10 and the hydraulic oil radiator 20. The airflow passes over the cooling fins on these components, carrying away heat and thus achieving heat dissipation for the water-cooled radiator 10, the hydraulic oil radiator 20, and the condenser 30, ensuring their effective operation.

[0038] The water-cooled radiator 10 and the hydraulic oil radiator 20 are arranged side by side on the same plane. This side-by-side arrangement can be vertical or horizontal. The condenser 30 and the cooling fan assembly 40 are located on both sides of the water-cooled radiator 10 and the hydraulic oil radiator 20.

[0039] The cooling fan assembly 40 comprises multiple cooling fans 41 arranged in an array on a single plane. In an exemplary embodiment, the cooling fan assembly 40 may have four cooling fans 41 arranged in a grid pattern, covering both the water-cooled radiator 10 and the hydraulic oil radiator 20. In the exemplary embodiment, the water-cooled radiator 10 and the hydraulic oil radiator 20 are arranged side-by-side, with two cooling fans primarily covering the water-cooled radiator 10 and two cooling fans primarily covering the hydraulic oil radiator 20. All four cooling fans 41 also cover the condenser 30. The speed or operation of each cooling fan 41 can be adjusted according to actual use to achieve dynamic adjustment of the cooling fan assembly for energy saving and environmental protection.

[0040] The water pump includes a first water pump 11 and a second water pump 12. The first water pump 11 is used to sequentially send circulating coolant to the motor controller 71, the travel electric motor 72 and the hydraulic motor 73 and then back to the water-cooled radiator 10 to achieve cooling of the motor controller 71, the travel electric motor 72 and the hydraulic motor 73. The second water pump 12 is used to send circulating coolant to the battery pack 74 and then back to the water-cooled radiator 10 to achieve cooling of the battery pack 74.

[0041] In a preferred embodiment, a cooler 60 for cooling the circulating coolant is provided in the circuit between the water-cooled radiator 10 and the circulating coolant of the motor controller 71 and / or the travel motor 72 and / or the hydraulic motor 73 and / or the battery pack 74. In an exemplary embodiment, a cooler 60 for cooling the circulating coolant is provided in the circuit between the water-cooled radiator 10 and the circulating coolant of the battery pack 74. The cooling of the circulating coolant by the cooler 60 is then returned to the water-cooled radiator 10 to achieve cooling of the circulating coolant and ensure heat dissipation effect.

[0042] The cooler 60 is connected to the circuit of the air conditioning system 80 to use the refrigerant of the air conditioning system to cool the circulating coolant. In other words, the refrigerant of the cooler 60 is obtained through the air conditioning system 80, and the configured air conditioning system is used directly without the need to introduce new refrigerant.

[0043] Preferably, the condenser 30 is equipped with a liquid receiver 31, which is connected to the circuit of the air conditioning system 80 through the liquid receiver 31. The condenser 30 absorbs the moisture in the refrigerant of the air conditioning system 80 to achieve liquid storage and store excess refrigerant in the system.

[0044] The water-cooled radiator 10 is equipped with an expansion tank 90, which is bolted to the mounting bracket 50 and connected to the water-cooled radiator 10. The expansion tank 90 accommodates the volume changes of the coolant due to thermal expansion and contraction, regulates the system pressure of the water-cooled radiator 10, and ensures the stable operation of the cooling system. Specifically, when the coolant expands due to heat, causing the system pressure to rise, the expansion tank 90 absorbs the excess coolant to prevent damage to pipes or components due to overpressure. When the coolant cools down and contracts, the expansion tank 90 replenishes the coolant to prevent negative pressure from causing air to enter or water pump cavitation.

[0045] The water-cooled radiator 10 is equipped with a temperature sensor at the inlet and / or outlet of the circulating coolant pipes to detect the temperature of the circulating coolant at these inlets. The hydraulic oil radiator 20 is equipped with a temperature sensor at the outlet of its oil pipe to detect the temperature of the oil at this outlet. A temperature sensor is installed on the pipeline in front of the electric compressor 81 to detect the temperature of the low-temperature, low-pressure steam supplied by the evaporator. Each temperature sensor is electrically connected to a controller and transmits the detected temperature signal to the controller. The controller can then control each cooling fan 41 of the cooling fan assembly 40 according to the detected temperature, such as adjusting the speed or starting / stopping each cooling fan 41, achieving dynamic adjustment for energy saving and environmental protection.

[0046] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any variations or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
