Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of vehicle design, and in particular to a split-assembly aluminum-iron combined vehicle frame. Background Technology

[0002] The chassis is a frame structure spanning the front and rear axles of a car, commonly known as a beam, and is the base of the vehicle. It generally consists of two longitudinal beams and several transverse beams, supported on the wheels via the suspension system, front axle, and rear axle. The chassis must possess sufficient strength and rigidity to withstand the vehicle's loads and impacts transmitted from the wheels. The function of the chassis is to support and connect the various assemblies of the car, maintaining their relatively correct positions, and bearing various loads from both inside and outside the vehicle.

[0003] Most vehicle frames on the market do not have a cooling function, requiring an additional cooling system to cool the power components, which are generally engines or motors. This cooling structure not only has the drawback of being complex, but the current cooling solutions generally rely on the principle of airflow when the vehicle is moving forward, which is not ideal. When the vehicle is stopped or moving slowly, it will be unable to continue cooling, thus affecting the lifespan of the power components. Utility Model Content

[0004] To overcome the shortcomings mentioned above, this utility model provides a technical solution that can solve the above problems.

[0005] A modular, assembled aluminum-iron combined vehicle frame includes an iron frame and two aluminum beams, wherein the iron frame is fixedly mounted on top of the two aluminum beams by screws.

[0006] The aluminum beams are hollow, with a water pump connected to the front end of each beam and a water pipe connected to the rear end. A power assembly is fixedly installed on the upper side of the front end of each beam, and the heat from the power assembly is transferred to the two aluminum beams and the water pipe through the water pump for heat dissipation.

[0007] The water pump includes a housing, a rotating shaft, and pump blades. The pump blades are fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft, which is rotatably mounted inside the housing. The housing has an inlet and an outlet at both ends. The front ends of two aluminum beams are sealed and connected to the inlet and outlet, respectively. One end of the rotating shaft extends out of the housing, and the output shaft of the power unit drives the rotating shaft to rotate synchronously.

[0008] Furthermore, thermally conductive sealant is provided between the bottom of the power assembly and the two aluminum beams.

[0009] Furthermore: a first pulley is fixedly installed at the output shaft of the power component, a second pulley is fixedly installed at one end of the shaft extending out of the housing, and a transmission belt is fitted between the first pulley and the second pulley.

[0010] Furthermore: a positioning bracket is provided at the front end of the iron frame, the power component is fixedly installed on the positioning bracket, and a ventilation slot is provided on the front side of the positioning bracket.

[0011] Furthermore: the water supply pipe is fixedly installed at the rear end of the iron frame, and both ends of the water supply pipe are inserted into the aluminum beams on both sides respectively.

[0012] Furthermore, the rear ends of both aluminum beams are sealed with first sealing plugs.

[0013] Furthermore, the front ends of both aluminum beams are sealed with second sealing plugs, and water inlets are formed on the second sealing plugs. Water pump pipes are connected to the water inlets and outlets at both ends of the outer shell, and the outer ends of the two water pump pipes are respectively sealed and connected to the water inlets of the two second sealing plugs.

[0014] Furthermore: a positioning pin is provided inside the front end of the aluminum beam, and the second sealing plug is fixed to the front end of the aluminum beam through the positioning pin.

[0015] Furthermore, the bottom side of the iron frame is provided with several shock absorber mounting seats.

[0016] Furthermore, a crash beam is fixedly installed at the rear end of the iron frame.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0018] 1. When the power unit is running, the output shaft of the power unit can drive the rotating shaft inside the water pump to run synchronously. The rotating shaft will drive the pump blades to rotate inside the housing, thereby driving the coolant to circulate in the two aluminum beams and the water pipe. Since the power unit is fixed on the two aluminum beams, the heat of the power unit when it is working will be quickly dispersed to the two aluminum beams through the flow of coolant, which can quickly remove the heat and achieve the technical effect of active heat dissipation.

[0019] 2. When the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the oncoming wind will blow directly onto the power components, thereby quickly carrying away heat and achieving the technical effect of passive heat dissipation.

[0020] This invention integrates the cooling system into two aluminum beams, which are generally made of alloy materials, preventing corrosion, extending service life, and carrying and transporting coolant. This eliminates the need for a separate heat dissipation system, simplifying the frame structure, reducing manufacturing costs, and combining active and passive cooling to cool the power components, thus ensuring their lifespan.

[0021] Additional aspects and advantages of this invention will be set forth in part in the description which follows, and in part will be obvious from the description, or may be learned by practice of the invention. Attached Figure Description

Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention.

For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.

[0036] like Figure 1-7 As shown, the present invention provides a split-assembly aluminum-iron combined vehicle frame, comprising an iron frame 1 and two aluminum beams 2, wherein the iron frame 1 is fixedly mounted on top of the two aluminum beams 2 by screws.

[0037] The aluminum beams 2 are hollow. The front ends of the two aluminum beams 2 are connected to water pumps 3, and the rear ends of the two aluminum beams 2 are connected to water pipes 4. The upper side of the front ends of the two aluminum beams 2 is fixedly installed with a power assembly 5. The heat of the power assembly 5 is transferred to the two aluminum beams 2 and the water pipes 4 through the water pumps 3 for heat dissipation.

[0038] The water pump 3 includes a housing 31, a rotating shaft 32, and pump blades 33. The pump blades 33 are fixedly mounted on the rotating shaft 32, and the rotating shaft 32 is rotatably mounted in the housing 31. The housing 31 has an inlet 6 and an outlet 7 at its two ends, respectively. The front ends of the two aluminum beams 2 are sealed and connected to the inlet 6 and the outlet 7, respectively. One end of the rotating shaft 32 extends out of the housing 31, and the output shaft of the power assembly 5 drives the rotating shaft 32 to rotate synchronously.

[0039] The principle is as follows: When the power component 5 is running, the output shaft of the power component 5 can drive the rotating shaft 32 inside the water pump 3 to run synchronously. The rotating shaft 32 will drive the pump blades 33 to rotate inside the housing 31, thereby driving the coolant to circulate in the two aluminum beams 2 and the water pipe 4. Since the power component 5 is fixed on the two aluminum beams 2, the heat of the power component 5 when it is working will be quickly dispersed to the two aluminum beams 2 through the flow of coolant, which can quickly remove the heat for heat dissipation. In addition, when the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the oncoming wind will also blow directly on the power component 5, thereby quickly removing the heat and achieving a further heat dissipation effect.

[0040] Furthermore, a thermally conductive sealant 8 is provided between the bottom of the power component 5 and the two aluminum beams 2; the thermally conductive sealant 8 can be filled by filling the gap between the power component 5 and the two aluminum beams 2, thereby achieving efficient heat transfer and rapid heat dissipation.

[0041] Furthermore: a first pulley 9 is fixedly installed at the output shaft of the power assembly 5, and a second pulley 10 is fixedly installed at one end of the rotating shaft 32 extending out of the outer casing 31. A transmission belt 11 is installed between the first pulley 9 and the second pulley 10; so that when the power assembly 5 is working, it can drive the rotating shaft 32 to rotate synchronously, thereby ensuring that the coolant in the two aluminum beams 2 circulates and achieves independent heat dissipation.

[0042] Furthermore: a positioning bracket 12 is provided at the front end of the iron frame 1, and the power component 5 is fixedly installed on the positioning bracket 12. A ventilation slot 13 is provided on the front side of the positioning bracket 12. When the vehicle is traveling at high speed, the ventilation slot 13 can achieve the effect of head-on wind, allowing the airflow to quickly carry away the heat of the power component 5 and achieve the effect of passive heat dissipation.

[0043] Furthermore: the water supply pipe 4 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the iron frame 1, and both ends of the water supply pipe 4 are respectively inserted into the aluminum beams 2 on both sides; this ensures the stable assembly of the water supply pipe 4 between the two aluminum beams 2.

[0044] Furthermore, the rear ends of both aluminum beams 2 are sealed with first sealing plugs 14 to prevent coolant leakage.

[0045] Furthermore, the front ends of both aluminum beams 2 are sealed with second sealing plugs 15, and water inlets 16 are formed on the second sealing plugs 15. Pump pipes 17 are respectively connected to the water inlets 6 and water outlets 7 at both ends of the outer shell 31. The outer ends of the two pump pipes 17 are respectively sealed and connected to the water inlets 16 of the two second sealing plugs 15; this can prevent coolant leakage.

[0046] Furthermore: a positioning pin 18 is provided inside the front end of the aluminum beam 2, and the second sealing plug 15 is fixed to the front end of the aluminum beam 2 through the positioning pin 18; this ensures the stable assembly of the second sealing plug 15 at the front end of the aluminum beam 2.

[0047] Furthermore, the bottom side of the iron frame 1 is provided with several shock absorber mounting seats 19; shock absorbers can be installed on the shock absorber mounting seats 19 to cooperate with the wheels of the vehicle, thereby effectively reducing the transmission of vibration during vehicle operation.

[0048] Furthermore, the rear end of the iron frame 1 is fixedly equipped with a crash beam 20, which can play a role in preventing collisions and prevents the frame from deforming easily in the event of an impact.

[0049] This embodiment does not impose any limitation on the shape, material, structure, etc. of this utility model. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes, and alterations made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of this utility model shall fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
