[0002] With the rapid development of new energy vehicles in recent years, their safety and cost have become increasingly important concerns for users and automakers. High-voltage distribution boxes, as a crucial component of new energy vehicles, are key to ensuring the safety of personnel and the safe operation of vehicle equipment.

[0003] Chinese Patent 120222086A relates to a high-voltage power distribution box and an automobile, including a quick-connect connector and a gland connector. The quick-connect connector is used to connect the positive and negative terminals of the battery side of the high-voltage power distribution box to the positive and negative terminals of a battery system including several battery boxes. The gland connector is used to connect the positive and negative terminals of the output side of the high-voltage power distribution box to the positive and negative terminals of the electrical equipment. The positive and negative terminals of the battery side and the output side of the high-voltage power distribution box are respectively connected inside the high-voltage power distribution box. Using a quick-connect connector for the interface connecting the high-voltage power distribution box to the battery system allows for quick plugging and unplugging when the power is off, making it safer to use. Using gland connectors for the interfaces connecting the high-voltage power distribution box to the charging interface and the motor controller interface makes the connection more secure and reliable, adaptable to complex and changing operating conditions.

[0004] Existing technologies use quick-connect connectors, which are expensive, have poor connection reliability, increase vehicle costs, and compromise safety. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention aims to provide a high-voltage power distribution system for new energy vehicles, so as to reduce vehicle costs and improve connection reliability.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution adopted by this utility model is as follows:

[0007] This utility model provides a high-voltage power distribution system for new energy vehicles, including a power battery, a charging interface module, a power conversion module, a high-voltage distribution box, a drive module, and a load. The power battery is connected to the charging interface module, the charging interface module is connected to the power conversion module, the power battery is connected to the power conversion module through the high-voltage distribution box, and the power conversion module is connected to the drive module and the load.

[0008] The charging interface module uses an AC / DC charging socket.

[0009] The power conversion module adopts a charging and charging assembly.

[0010] The drive module adopts an electric drive three-in-one assembly.

[0011] The load includes an electric compressor, a water heater, and a fan heater.

[0012] The high-voltage distribution box is connected to the power battery, the charging assembly, the electric compressor, the air heater, and the water heater via quick-connect high-voltage connectors.

[0013] The high-voltage distribution box is connected to the electric drive three-in-one assembly via an IPT screw connector.

[0015] The technical effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0016] (1) In this utility model, the high voltage distribution box and the electric drive three-in-one assembly are connected by IPT screw connector, which makes the connection stable and reduces the failure rate, and the cost is lower than that of quick-connect high voltage connector.

[0017] (2) This utility model has the advantages of precise high-voltage power distribution and reliable electrical safety protection. This utility model realizes centralized power distribution of the power battery through a high-voltage distribution box, which can accurately deliver electrical energy to different loads and modules such as electric compressor, air heater, water heater and electric drive three-in-one assembly, ensuring stable power supply to each component; at the same time, fuses are installed in the high-voltage wiring harnesses connecting the power battery and the charging two-in-one assembly, electric compressor, air heater and water heater. When a short circuit, overload or other fault occurs in the circuit, the fuse can quickly melt to cut off the fault circuit, avoiding the fault from expanding and causing safety risks such as damage to the power battery, burnout of the load or fire. This ensures the electrical safety of the entire vehicle's high-voltage system from the power distribution head.

[0018] (3) This utility model has the advantages of strong vibration resistance and high long-term reliability of key component connections. In this utility model, the high-voltage distribution box and the electric drive three-in-one assembly are connected by IPT screw-type connectors. Compared with traditional plug-in connectors, the IPT screw-type connector enhances the connection strength through the threaded fastening structure, which can effectively resist vibration and bumps during vehicle operation and prevent the connection from loosening or breaking. This connection method can ensure the continuous and stable power transmission from the high-voltage distribution box to the electric drive three-in-one assembly, avoid the electric drive system from shutting down and the whole vehicle from losing power due to connection failure, and thus ensure the connection reliability during long-term use, significantly improving the safe operation level of the whole vehicle.

[0026] The present invention provides a high-voltage power distribution system for new energy vehicles, comprising a power battery, a charging interface module, a power conversion module, a high-voltage distribution box, a drive module, and a load. The charging interface module uses an AC / DC charging socket for connecting an external charging gun. The power battery in this invention can receive charging from AC or DC power sources.

[0027] The power conversion module adopts a charging-in-one assembly, which is an integration of an on-board charger and a DC-DC converter. It is used to convert AC power to DC power to charge the power battery when the charging power source is AC power.

[0028] The high-voltage distribution box is used for power distribution of the power battery. At the same time, the fuse in the high-voltage wiring harness in the high-voltage distribution box protects the electrical safety of the vehicle.

[0033] The working process of this utility model is described in detail below.

[0034] When the AC / DC charging socket is connected to an external DC charging pile, the DC charging pile directly charges the power battery; when the AC / DC charging socket is connected to an external AC charging pile, the AC charging pile converts the power of the charging two-in-one assembly into DC power to charge the power battery, and the power battery outputs power to the electric compressor, air heater, water heater and electric drive three-in-one assembly through the high voltage distribution box.

It achieves centralized power distribution from the power battery through a high-voltage distribution box, accurately delivering electrical energy to different loads and modules such as the electric compressor, air heater, water heater, and electric drive three-in-one assembly, ensuring stable power supply to each component. Simultaneously, fuses are installed in the high-voltage wiring harnesses connecting the power battery to the charging two-in-one assembly, electric compressor, air heater, and water heater. When a short circuit or overload occurs, the fuses quickly melt to cut off the fault circuit, preventing the fault from escalating and causing safety risks such as power battery damage, load burnout, or fire. This ensures the electrical safety of the entire vehicle's high-voltage system from the power distribution head.

[0038] This invention features strong vibration resistance and high long-term reliability in key component connections. The high-voltage distribution box and the electric drive three-in-one assembly are connected using an IPT screw-type connector. Compared to traditional plug-in connectors, the IPT screw-type connector enhances connection strength through its threaded fastening structure, effectively resisting vibrations and bumps during vehicle operation and preventing loosening or disconnection.
