Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0039] It should be noted that, where there is no conflict, the features in the embodiments of this utility model can be combined with each other.
[0040] With the continuous development of new energy vehicles, range-extended hybrid vehicles have also emerged. The generator controller, compressor controller, and auxiliary heating system (PTC) controller in these vehicles are all independently and distributed, located far apart. Each requires its own independent cooling system, resulting in multiple cooling units within the vehicle compartment. This occupies a large space, increases production costs, and adds to the overall vehicle weight. Furthermore, because the generator controller, compressor controller, and PTC controller are all independently located, each requires its own protective housing, further increasing the vehicle's weight and production costs.
[0041] In view of this, an integrated control system and a vehicle are provided in the embodiments of this utility model. The integrated control system and the vehicle can solve the above problems, and will be described in detail below.
[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 The integrated control system includes an outer shell 1, a power brick 2, a combination brick 3, and a heat exchange component 4. The outer shell 1 has a first accommodating area 11 and a second accommodating area 12. The power brick 2 is installed in the first accommodating area 11, and the combination brick 3 is installed in the second accommodating area 12. The heat exchange component 4 is connected to the power brick 2 and the combination brick 3, and the heat exchange component 4 exchanges heat with the power brick 2 and the combination brick 3 simultaneously. Thus, the same set of heat exchange components 4 can exchange heat with the power brick 2 and the combination brick 3 simultaneously, which can reduce the space occupied in the vehicle compartment, save production costs, and reduce the weight of the whole vehicle.
[0043] Meanwhile, the integrated control system of this utility model embodiment also integrates the power brick 2 corresponding to the generator controller, the compressor control module 30 corresponding to the compressor controller, and the PTC control module 31 corresponding to the PTC controller into one, making the overall structure more compact. This reduces the use of connecting harnesses and pipes, and eliminates the need for the housings used when the compressor controller and PTC controller are set up independently, further saving production costs and reducing the weight of the entire vehicle. It is worth mentioning that the compressor control module 30 and the PTC control module 31 are integrated into a combined brick 3, which is electrically connected to the power brick 2, and a fuse is provided in the electrical connection path between the combined brick 3 and the power brick 2.
[0044] The outer casing 1 has a partition 10 inside, which divides the internal space of the outer casing 1 into a first accommodating area 11 and a second accommodating area 12. The partition 10 has a first channel 101 and a second channel 102, which are both connected to the first accommodating area 11 and the second accommodating area 12.
[0045] refer to Figure 5The heat exchange assembly 4 includes a first heat exchange plate 41, a second heat exchange plate 42, a first flow channel pipe 43, a second flow channel pipe 44, and a plate connecting pipe 45. The first flow channel pipe 43 is connected to the first heat exchange plate 41, the second flow channel pipe 44 is connected to the second heat exchange plate 42, and the plate connecting pipe 45 connects the first heat exchange plate 41 and the second heat exchange plate 42. The first heat exchange plate 41 exchanges heat with the power brick 2, and the second heat exchange plate 42 exchanges heat with the composite brick 3. The first flow channel pipe 43 passes through the first channel 101 and is connected to the first heat exchange plate 41, and the plate connecting pipe 45 passes through the second channel 102 and connects the first heat exchange plate 41 and the second heat exchange plate 42.
[0046] Of course, the first flow channel tube 43 and the first heat exchange plate 41 may not be directly connected. For example, the two ends of the first channel 101 are respectively sealed to the first flow channel tube 43 and the first heat exchange plate 41, and the first channel 101 connects the first flow channel tube 43 and the first heat exchange plate 41. Similarly, the first heat exchange plate 41 and the plate connecting pipe 45 may not be directly connected. The two ends of the second channel 102 are respectively sealed to the first heat exchange plate 41 and the plate connecting pipe 45, and the second channel 102 connects the first heat exchange plate 41 and the plate connecting pipe 45. The plate connecting pipe 45 is also connected to the second heat exchange plate 42.
[0047] Optionally, the wall surface of the first heat exchange plate 41 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation protrusions 411, which are evenly and spaced apart. The interior of the first heat exchange plate 41 is hollow, allowing the cooling medium to flow. The first heat exchange plate 41 is in contact with the heating element of the combined brick 3 to dissipate heat for the combined brick 3. When the wall surface of the first heat exchange plate 41 is provided with a plurality of heat dissipation protrusions 411, the cooling medium inside the first heat exchange plate 41 can be disturbed to prevent the cooling medium from forming laminar flow during the flow process. At the same time, the heat dissipation protrusions 411 can increase the heat dissipation area and improve the heat dissipation efficiency.
[0048] Optionally, the second heat exchange plate 42 is provided with multiple water inlets 421, which are connected to the interior of the composite brick 3, and some water inlets 421 are connected to the second flow channel pipe 44. When the cooling medium in the plate connecting pipe 45 enters the interior of the second heat exchange plate 42, the cooling medium is discharged from the multiple water inlets 421, and the cooling medium contacts the composite brick 3 to dissipate heat from the composite brick 3. The higher water inlets 421 are connected to the second flow channel pipe 44, and the cooling medium that has completed heat exchange enters the second flow channel pipe 44 through these water inlets 421 and is then discharged. It should be noted that all components on the composite brick 3 are encapsulated internally with glue. When the cooling medium contacts the composite brick 3, it contacts the encapsulating glue, and the cooling medium will not affect the normal operation of the components on the composite brick 3.
[0049] Refer again Figure 1A filter 5 is also provided on the outer shell 1. The filter 5 is located between the power brick 2 and the combined brick 3. This arrangement allows the power brick 2 and the combined brick 3 to share a filter 5. Compared with the original scattered arrangement which requires at least two filters 5, the arrangement of integrating the combined brick 3 and the power brick 2 in this embodiment can reduce the use of at least one filter 5.
[0050] Optionally, the power brick 2 and the combination brick 3 are stacked in the thickness direction of the outer casing 1. This allows the generator controller to be installed at the axial end of the generator, and the outer casing 1 to be fastened to the generator, thus improving the radial space utilization of the vehicle. This is generally suitable for vehicles with longitudinally mounted generators or vehicles with large axial dimensions of the engine compartment. The second accommodating area 12 where the combination brick 3 is located is located on the side away from the generator. To seal and protect the combination brick 3, the outer casing 1 is also connected to a cover plate 13, which covers the second accommodating area 12 and is sealed to the outer casing 1.
[0051] The power brick 2, compressor control module 30 and PTC control module 31 in this embodiment of the present invention are existing technologies, and their specific structures and connections will not be described in detail.
[0052] An embodiment of this utility model also provides an automobile, including the above-mentioned integrated control system, and also including a generator and an engine. The integrated control system is mounted on the generator, and the rotor of the generator is connected to the crankshaft of the engine and directly connected by bolts or welding. Compared with the spline connection used in conventional settings, the direct connection between the rotor and the crankshaft can eliminate the need for a flywheel and a torsional damper, which can not only reduce the axial dimension of the connection between the generator and the engine, but also reduce the weight of the motor housing.
[0053] In this embodiment, the integrated control system is placed on the generator, which can save multiple wiring harnesses. For example, at least three high-voltage wiring harnesses, two high-voltage connectors, one low-voltage wiring harness, two low-voltage connectors, and resolver adapter wiring harness can be eliminated, which greatly reduces production costs.
[0054] 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.
