Description

Whole-vehicle arrangement structure of range-extending electric tractor and tractor with same Technical Field The invention relates to the field of commercial vehicles, in particular to a whole vehicle arrangement structure of an extended-range electric tractor and the tractor with the same. Background With the increasing importance of global environmental protection and sustainable development, the motorized transformation of commercial vehicles has become an irreversible trend for the automotive industry. The new energy is particularly urgent due to the characteristics of high energy consumption and large emission of the tractor serving as an important carrier for road logistics transportation. The extended range electric tractor is used as an important technical path for electric transformation of commercial vehicles, effectively overcomes the shortages of short endurance mileage and insufficient charging infrastructure of the pure electric trucks, and is particularly suitable for transportation scenes such as medium and long-distance trunk logistics and the like. However, the range-extending electric tractor is provided with a range-extending system consisting of an engine-generator, so that system components are more complex than those of a pure electric tractor, and serious tests are brought to the whole vehicle space layout, axle load distribution, system integration level, heat management and cab NVH. Many existing solutions fail to achieve an optimal balance of efficiency and utility in terms of power and energy configuration strategies. One common idea is to simply transplant a large-displacement traditional engine as a range extender, which can ensure the power generation power, but leads to heavy system weight, complex structure and high thermal management load, and the engine is often operated in a non-efficient area, so that the fuel economy is poor. The other is that the battery capacity configuration is conservative, the pure electric endurance mileage is short, so that the range extender is frequently started and stopped, the advantages of electric driving cannot be fully exerted, the overall energy efficiency and the service life of components are reduced due to frequent system switching, and the improvement of the operation economy is limited. In terms of the spatial layout and the integration level of the whole vehicle, the existing design often faces serious challenges. The chassis space of the tractor is extremely tight, and a plurality of large-scale assemblies such as a large-capacity power battery, a range extender, an electric driving system, a cooling system, a gas storage system, a fuel oil system and the like are needed to be accommodated. Traditional 'flat-laid' layout is extremely prone to interference among components and tedious and messy pipelines. In order to install large batteries, reasonable positions of other systems are often sacrificed or effective bearing space of a frame is occupied, so that axle load distribution is unreasonable, and running stability is affected. In addition, the decentralized layout also makes the production and assembly complex, and the routine maintenance and troubleshooting are difficult. In terms of heat management performance, the range extender (engine) and the power battery have different requirements for heat dissipation, and the working temperature ranges are different. In the prior art, the two cooling systems are simply coupled to cause mutual interference of heat flows, complex control logic and low efficiency, or the cooling pipelines are roundabout and zigzag due to unreasonable layout of the systems, so that the circulation resistance and the pumping loss of the cooling liquid are increased, and the energy consumption and the reliability of the whole vehicle are influenced. In the aspect of driving comfort (NVH performance), the range-extended vehicle is provided with a plurality of noise vibration sources such as a driving motor, a range extender, various electric accessories (such as an inflating pump and a steering pump) and the like. If the noise source is not effectively isolated and shielded in the existing design, particularly high-noise components such as a range extender, an exhaust silencer and an air compressor are arranged at a position close to a cab, the noise and vibration level in the cab can be obviously increased, the comfort of long-distance driving is seriously affected, and the quality requirements of modern commercial vehicles are not met. The prior patent CN 217917633U discloses a fuel cell tractor, which discloses the technical content that a power cell is arranged in a cab, but the arrangement of a range extender is not optimized and improved in the whole. In order to improve or solve at least one of the above technical problems, there is a need to optimize the layout of existing range-extending electric tractors.
