The present disclosure claims priority to Chinese Patent Application NO. CN202210248435.2, filed on Mar. 14, 2022, and entitled “Electric Energy Transmission System and Automobile”, which is hereby incorporated by reference in its entirety.
The present disclosure relates to the technical field of electric energy transmission, and particular to an electric energy transmission system and an automobile.
As electric appliances on the automobile increase, more and more high-power cables are used on the automobile. Most of the existing high-power cables are multi-core flexible cables. Although the multi-core cables are flexible and can be conveniently processed and wired, due to the large cable diameters and the large weight, so in a traveling process of the automobile, the cables frequently rub against an automobile shell, resulting in damage of insulating layers of the cables, which causes high-voltage discharge or short-circuit, damaging the automobile in minor cases, and causing serious traffic accidents in serious cases. Thus, solid cables become one of main choices for replacing the flexible cables.
However, the layout environment inside the automobile body is complex, the cables need to be bent and formed at many positions, and the resistance of the solid cables at the bent positions changes, resulting in greater heating at the bent positions than other positions, which causes softening and even melting of part of the insulating layers and causes high-voltage discharge or short-circuit. Besides, the excessively high heat also affects the arrangement environment of the bent positions of the cables, when an object close to the bent positions of the cables has a low melting point, the object will be molten, so that the entire cables are wrapped, thus the heat dissipation effect is worse, the cables are finally burnt due to overheating, and even burning of the automobile is caused.
Therefore, there is an urgent need in the prior art for a new solution to solve the above problems.
In order to solve the above problems, the present disclosure provides a new technical solution.

The present disclosure has the technical effects as follows:
1. the cavity is provided between the bent portion of the electric connection skeleton and the inner wall of the insulating layer, the cavity contains air, and the thermal conductivity of the closed air is poor, so that when the bent portion of the electric connection skeleton generates a large amount of heat, it does not affect the insulating layer outside the cavity, thereby protecting the insulating layer of the bent portion against softening or melting;
2. the closed air inside the cavity has an effect of heat isolation, so that heat of the bent portion of the electric connection skeleton cannot be transmitted outside the insulating layer, and a low-melting-point object, such as a rubber-coated fabric and a sponge, that covers the insulating layer cannot be heated to be molten, thereby reducing the probability of accidents; and
3. the closed air inside the cavity expands during heating of the bent portion of the electric connection skeleton, due to the existence of the insulating layer, the pressure in the cavity gradually increases, according to the Paschen's rule, the breakdown voltage increases as the air pressure increases, thus the voltage breakdown resistance of the bent portion is improved, and the safety of the electric energy transmission system is improved.

For those of ordinary skill in the art, the known techniques, methods and devices may not be discussed in detail. However, under appropriate conditions, the techniques, methods and apparatuses should be regarded as a part of the specification.
In all examples shown and discussed here, any specific value should be explained as exemplary only, and does not serve as a limitation. Therefore, other examples of the exemplary embodiments may have different values.
An electric energy transmission system, as shown in
In a design process of the electric energy transmission system, the sectional area of the electric connection skeleton 1 is carefully calculated according to an on-state current, and a sufficient margin is reserved. Even if the current conducted by the electric connection skeleton 1 exceeds a rated current due to voltage instability or the like, the electric connection skeleton 1 can only be heated, and the electric connection skeleton 1 cannot be fused or burnt. However, the insulating layer 2 covering the outside of the electric connection skeleton 1 is made of a plastic material and has a melting temperature in a range of 115° C. to 120° C.; in addition, during mounting of the electric connection skeleton 1, the insulating layer 2 also needs to be covered with a low-melting-point object which has a melting temperature below 100° C., such as a rubber-coated fabric and a sponge. Therefore, when the current is too large and the temperature rise exceeds the standard, the insulating layer 2 or the material such as the rubber-coated fabric and the sponge on the periphery of the electric connection skeleton 1 is the object that needs to be protected against fusion or burning.
As shown in
The closed air inside the cavity 6 has an effect of heat isolation, so that heat of the bent portion 4 of the electric connection skeleton 1 cannot be transmitted outside the insulating layer 2, and the low-melting-point object, such as the rubber-coated fabric and the sponge, that covers the insulating layer 2 cannot be heated to be molten, thereby reducing the probability of accidents.
The closed air inside the cavity 6 expands during heating of the bent portion 4 of the electric connection skeleton 1, due to the existence of the insulating layer 2, the pressure in the cavity 6 gradually increases, according to the Paschen's rule, the breakdown voltage increases as the air pressure increases, thus the voltage breakdown resistance of the bent portion 4 is improved, and the safety of the electric energy transmission system is improved.
In some embodiments, an atmospheric pressure value in the cavity 6 is greater than that of an environment where the electric connection skeleton 1 is located. Only when the atmospheric pressure value in the cavity 6 is greater than the external atmospheric pressure value, the cavity 6 can be supported from the inside, thereby preventing collapsing of the cavity 6. Meanwhile, according to the Paschen's rule, the breakdown voltage increases as the air pressure increases, thus the voltage breakdown resistance of the bent portion 4 is improved, and the safety of the electric energy transmission system is improved.
In some embodiments, the cavity 6 contains a barrier breakdown dielectric, and the dielectric breakdown strength of the barrier breakdown dielectric is greater than that of air. The barrier breakdown dielectric has the higher breakdown resistance, when the voltage of the electric connection skeleton 1 is high, and after the skeleton gets close to an external conducting device, an electric field is produced easily, and if the breakdown resistance of the insulating layer 2 is poor, the electric field can break through the insulating layer, causing instantaneous short-circuit, and causing damage of an automobile in serious cases. Therefore, adding the barrier breakdown dielectric in the cavity 6 can improve the breakdown resistance of the insulating layer 2 portion, and can improve the safety of the electric energy transmission system.
In some embodiments, the barrier breakdown dielectric contains one or more selected from a silicide, a halide, a nitride and a carbide. These compounds have good thermal conductivity, which can sufficiently assist in heat dissipation. These compounds have the small thermal expansion coefficient, which prevent the cavity 6 from being burst from the inside. And meanwhile, These compounds have good electric insulation property, small dielectric coefficient, and high breakdown resistance voltage, which can more effectively prevent breakdown.
In order to verify the influences of the cavities 6 not containing the barrier breakdown dielectric and containing the different barrier breakdown dielectric on the breakdown resistance effects of the bent portions 4, the inventor uses the electric connection skeletons 1 in the same sizes, the bent portions 4 in the same sizes and the cavities 6 in the same sizes, the pressure values in the cavities 6 are the same, and the cavities 6 are respectively configured to not contain the barrier breakdown dielectric and contain the different barrier breakdown dielectric, breakdown resistance voltage tests are carried out respectively, and voltage values at the time of breakdown are observed and are recorded in Table 1. In this embodiment, the breakdown resistance voltage value greater than 2.1 KV is a qualified value.
A method for testing the breakdown resistance voltage of the bent portion 4 is as follows: conducting a stable current to the electric energy transmission system, respectively arranging electrodes on the electric connection skeleton 1 of the bent portion 4 and the insulating layer 2 of the bent portion 4, conducting a direct-current high voltage to the two electrodes, and when the two electrodes are subjected to breakdown, recording the voltage value at that time. In this embodiment, the breakdown resistance voltage value greater than 2.1 KV is a qualified value.
It can be seen from Table 1 that when the cavity 6 does not contain the barrier breakdown dielectric, the breakdown resistance voltage value of the bent portion 4 is greater than 2.1 KV, which is close to the qualified critical value, that is, not exceeding the qualified value too much, and then there is still a risk in the breakdown resistance of the bent portion 4. When the barrier breakdown dielectric in the cavities 6 contain the silicide, the halide, the nitride and the carbide, the breakdown resistance voltage values of the bent portions 4 greatly exceed the qualified value, and the breakdown resistance of the bent portions 4 is remarkably better than that when the cavity 6 does not contain the barrier breakdown qualified. Thus, the inventor sets that the barrier breakdown dielectric contains one or more selected from the silicide, the halide, the nitride and the carbide.
As shown in
In a specific implementation manner, the connection terminal 5 is made of copper or copper alloys.
The copper or copper alloys have high electric conductivity and are resistant to friction. In addition, electric connection portions of most existing electric devices are made of copper. Thus, the connection terminal 5 made of the copper or copper alloys needs to be used for plugging and unplugging connection, and the connection terminal 5 can be widely applied in various electric transmission scenes.
In a specific implementation manner, the electric connection skeleton 1 is made of aluminum or an aluminum alloy, and the electric connection skeleton 1 is electrically connected to the connection terminal 5 in a welding or crimping manner.
The electric connection skeleton 1 can be specifically made of aluminum, a copper aluminum alloy, an aluminum magnesium alloy, an aluminum lithium alloy, or an aluminum zinc alloy.
The electric connection terminals 5 are made of the copper or copper alloys, the metal inertness of copper is greater than that of aluminum, the electrode potential difference between copper and aluminum is 1.9997 V, and an electrochemical reaction occurs after the two metals are connected and electrified, resulting in gradual oxidation of an aluminum wire, and reducing the mechanical strength and electric conductivity of the aluminum wire. Dissimilar materials can be connected in a welding manner, and the contact positions are fused, so that the electric conduction effect is better.
The specific welding manner includes one or more of a resistance welding manner, a friction welding manner, an ultrasonic welding manner, an arc welding manner, a laser welding manner, an electron beam welding manner, a pressure diffusion welding manner, and a magnetic induction welding manner.
The resistance welding manner refers to a method of using a large current to pass through a contact point between an electrode and a workpiece and allowing a contact resistor to produce heat to achieve welding.
The friction welding manner refers to a method of using heat produced by rubbing of a contact face of the workpiece as a heat source and enabling the workpiece to be subjected to plastic deformation under the action of pressure so as to perform welding.
The ultrasonic welding manner means that high-frequency vibration waves are transmitted to surfaces of two objects to be welded and the surfaces of the two objects rub against each other, under the condition of pressurization, to achieve fusion between two molecular layers.
The arc welding manner means that an electric arc serves as a heat source, by means of the physical phenomenon of air discharge, electric energy is converted into heat and mechanical energy required by welding, so as to achieve the purpose of connecting metals, and main methods include a shielded metal arc welding, a submerged arc welding and a gas shielded welding.
The laser welding manner is an efficient precision welding method using a laser beam with a high energy density as a heat source.
The electron beam welding manner means an accelerated and focused electron beam bombards a welding face placed in the vacuum or non-vacuum so that a welded workpiece is melted for welding.
The pressure welding manner is a method for applying pressure to a welded workpiece so that connection faces are close contact to generate certain plastic deformation to complete welding.
The diffusion welding manner refers to a solid-state welding method in which a workpiece is subjected to the pressurization at a high temperature without generating visible deformation and relative movement.
The magnetic induction welding manner means two welded workpieces produce an instantaneous high-speed collision under the action of a strong pulsed magnetic field, surface layers of materials are subjected to high pressure waves, and thus atoms of the two materials meet within the atomic spacing, thereby forming stable metallurgical bonding on an interface. It is one kind of solid-state cold welding, by which conducting metals with similar properties or dissimilar properties can be welded together.
For the specific welding manner, the appropriate connection manner or connection manner combination is selected according to actual states of the electric connection skeleton 1 and the connection terminals 5, thereby achieving effective electric connection.
With regard to the crimping manner, crimping manner is a production technology for stamping the electric connection skeleton 1 and the connection terminals 5 into a whole by means of a crimping machine after being assembled. The crimping has an advantage of mass production, and a large number of products with stable quality can be quickly manufactured by means of an automatic crimping machine.
In a specific implementation manner, the electric connection skeleton 1 is a rigid body, and the tensile strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 is higher than 75 MPa.
The electric connection skeleton 1 is configured as a rigid conductor and cannot rub against an automobile shell during vibration of the entire automobile, so that the integrity of the electric connection skeleton 1 can be ensured.
The rigid body refers to an object with the shape and size unchanged and relative positions of various points inside unchanged during motion and after being stressed. An absolute rigid body does not actually exist and is only an ideal model, because any object will be deformed to a certain extent after being stressed. If the deformation degree is very low relative to geometric dimensions of the object, the deformation can be omitted when the motion of the object is researched. Therefore, during use of the electric connection skeleton 1 made of the rigid body material, the produced deformation amount is very little and can be omitted, and as the tensile strength of the rigid body increases, the deformation amount is reduced.
In order to verify the influences of the tensile strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 on the tensile value when the electric connection skeleton 1 is pulled apart, the torque when it is bent, and whether has the abnormal sounds in a vibration process, the inventor selects electric connection skeleton 1 samples with the same dimensions and different tensile strength to test the tensile values when the electric connection skeletons 1 is pulled apart, the torque when it is bent, and whether has the abnormal sounds in the vibration process.
A method for testing the tensile value of the electric connection skeleton 1 is as follows: using a universal tensile test machine, respectively fixing the two ends of the electric connection skeleton 1 to tensile jigs of the universal tensile test machine, performing stretching at a speed of 50 mm/min, and recording the tensile value when finally being pulled apart. In this embodiment, the tensile value greater than 1600 N is a qualified value.
A method for testing the torque of the electric connection skeleton 1 is as follows: using a torque tester, and when the electric connection skeleton 1 is bent by 90° at the same radius and the same speed, testing the torque value of deformation of the electric connection skeleton 1 in the bending process. In this embodiment, the torque value less than 60 N·m is an exemplary value.
Whether the electric connection skeleton 1 has the abnormal sounds is tested with such a method that the electric connection skeleton 1 samples with the same dimensions and different tensile strength and the connectors 2 with the same dimensions are selected, assembled together and fixed on a vibration test platform, and in a vibration test process, whether the electric connection skeletons 1 have the abnormal sounds is observed.
It can be seen from Table 2 that when the tensile strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 is less than 75 Mpa, the tensile value of the electric connection skeleton 1 when being pulled apart is less than 1600 N, then the strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 is not high, the skeleton is pulled apart easily under a small external force, resulting in failure of functions of the electric connection skeleton 1, and thus the purpose of electric energy transmission cannot be achieved.
On the other hand, the greater the value of the tensile strength value of the electric connection skeleton 1, the less likely that the electric connection skeleton 1 deforms, and thus, in the vibration test process, the less likely that the electric connection skeleton 1 has the abnormal sounds caused by vibration relative to the connectors 3 connected to the two ends; and on the contrary, the smaller the value of the tensile strength value of the electric connection skeleton 1, the more likely that the electric connection skeleton 1 deforms, and thus, in the vibration test process, the more likely that the electric connection skeleton 1 has the abnormal sounds caused by vibration relative to the connectors 3 connected to the two ends. It can be seen from Table 1 that when the tensile strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 is less than or equal to 75 Mpa, the electric connection skeleton 1 can produce abnormal sounds in the vibration test process. Therefore, for the inventor, the tensile strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 is exemplarily higher than 75 MPa.
Meanwhile, it can also be seen from Table 1 that when the tensile strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 is higher than 480 Mpa, the torque value of the electric connection skeleton 1 when being bent by 90° is greater than 60 N·m, and then the electric connection skeleton 1 is not bent easily. Therefore, for the inventor, the tensile strength of the electric connection skeleton 1 is further exemplarily higher than 75 MPa and lower than or equal to 480 MPa.
In a specific implementation manner, a cross section of the electric connection skeleton 1 is in one or more selected from: a circular shape, an oval shape, a rectangular shape, a polygonal shape, an A shape, a B shape, a D shape, an M shape, an N shape, an O shape, an S shape, an E shape, an F shape, an H shape, a K shape, an L shape, a T shape, a P shape, a U shape, a V shape, a W shape, an X shape, a Y shape, a Z shape, a semi-arc shape, an arc shape and a wavy shape. Further, as shown in
When the cross section of the electric connection skeleton 1 has an edge, the edge is chamfered or rounded.
The periphery of the electric connection skeleton 1 is covered with the insulating layer 2, to prevent the insulating layer 2 from being damaged by friction with the edge, so that the edge is configured to be chamfered or rounded.
The bending radius of the bent portion 4 is greater than or equal to 1.19 times a maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1.
Compared with a multi-core aluminum wire, the electric connection skeleton 1 has the good rigidity and is not prone to breakage in a bending process. In the present disclosure, the electric connection skeleton 1 is used for connecting a first connector to a second connector, so that a current input from the first connector through the second connector to enter a vehicle-mounted battery. The electric connection skeleton 1 is arranged along the automobile shell, and if it is too close to the automobile shell, during movement of the automobile, the electric connection skeleton 1 will interfere with the automobile shell to produce the abnormal sounds; and it is tested by the inventor that when the minimum distance between the electric connection skeleton 1 and the automobile shell is greater than or equal to 5 mm, it is able to effectively prevent the appearance of the abnormal sounds. The electric connection skeleton 1, as a conductor, has a great advantage that it is bent easily. However, if the bending radius is too small, the electric connection skeleton 1 inside bending is greatly compressed, and the electric connection skeleton 1 outside bending is greatly stretched, so that many folds and breakage appear inside the electric connection skeleton 1, the resistance of the electric connection skeleton 1 is increased, and the electric conductivity of the electric connection skeleton 1 is affected. Therefore, it is tested by the inventor that when the bending radius of the electric connection skeleton 1 is greater than or equal to 1.19 times the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1, the folds and breakage will not appear inside the electric connection skeleton 1.
In order to verify the influence of the bending radius of the bent portion 4 on the temperature rise of the electric connection skeleton 1, the inventor selects the electric connection skeletons 1 with the same sectional shapes and the same sizes to produce samples with different bending radius, and then the same current is conducted to test the temperature rises of the bent portions 4 respectively.
A method for testing the temperature rises of the bent portions 4 is as follows: sealing the bent portions 4 in closed spaces with the same sizes, arranging a plurality of temperature sensors in the closed spaces, when the electric energy transmission system has no electricity, measuring the temperature values in the closed spaces and performing averaging, then introducing a stable current to the electric energy transmission system, after the temperatures in the closed spaces are stabilized, measuring the temperature values in the closed spaces and performing averaging, and the temperature rise value of the bending portion 4 is obtained by subtracting the two temperature average values. In this embodiment, the temperature rise value less than 50 K is a qualified value.
It can be seen from Table 3 that when the ratio of the bending radius of the bent portion 4 to the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1 is less than 1.19 times, the temperature rise value of the bent portion 4 is greater than 50 K and is unacceptable. When the ratio of the bending radius of the bent portion 4 to the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1 is greater than 1.19 times, the temperature rise value of the bent portion 4 is gradually reduced, and the trend is obvious. Therefore, the inventor sets that the bending radius of the bent portion 4 is greater than or equal to 1.19 times the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1.
In a specific implementation manner, there are at least two bent portions 4, and a distance between the two adjacent bent portions 4 is greater than or equal to 2.6 times the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1.
As shown in
In order to verify the influence of the multiple of the distance between the two adjacent bent portions 4 and the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1 on the success rate of bending of the straight electric connection skeleton 1, the inventor selects the electric connection skeletons 1 with the same sizes for bending at different adjacent distances respectively, bending is performed 50 times respectively, the number of samples with good bending is recorded, and the success rate of bending is calculated. In this embodiment, the success rate of bending higher than 95% is qualified.
It can be seen from Table 4 that when the multiple of the distance between the two adjacent bent portions 4 and the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1 is less than 2.6 times, the success rate of bending of the straight electric connection skeleton 1 is less than 95% and is unacceptable. When the multiple of the distance between the two adjacent bent portions 4 and the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1 is greater than 2.6 times, the success rate of bending of the straight electric connection skeleton 1 is gradually increased, and the trend is obvious. Therefore, the inventor sets that the distance between the two adjacent bent portions 4 is greater than or equal to 2.6 times the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1.
In a specific implementation manner, the maximum radial height of the cavity 6 is less than or equal to three times the thickness of the insulating layer 2.
If the radial height of the cavity 6 is too large, a narrow space may be encountered in a wiring process, the too large radial height of the cavity 6 may affect wiring, and meanwhile, a protrusion of the portion of the insulating layer 2 of the cavity 6 may also rub against the automobile shell or other components to cause breakage of the insulating layer 2. Therefore, the inventor defines the maximum radial height of the cavity 6 to be less than or equal to three times the thickness of the insulating layer 2.
In order to verify the influence of the ratio of the maximum radial height of the cavity 6 to the thickness of the insulating layer 2 on the abrasion of the insulating layer 2, the inventor selects samples which have the electric connection skeletons 1 with the same sizes, the insulating layers 2 with the same thicknesses and different maximum radial heights of the cavities 6, the samples are respectively mounted on the vibration test platform, other electric appliance parts are mounted in a simulated manner near the electric connection skeletons 1, then a vibration test is carried out, and the abrasion conditions of the insulating layers 2 after the vibration test are observed. In this embodiment, the insulating layer 2 being abraded is unacceptable.
It can be seen from Table 5 that when the ratio of the maximum radial height of the cavity 6 to the thickness of the insulating layer 2 is less than or equal to three times, the insulating layer 2 of the electric connection skeleton 1 is not abraded and is in a qualified state. When the ratio of the maximum radial height of the cavity 6 to the thickness of the insulating layer 2 is greater than three times, the insulating layer 2 of the electric connection skeleton 1 begins to be abraded and is in an unacceptable state. Therefore, the inventor sets that the maximum radial height of the cavity 6 is less than or equal to three times the thickness of the insulating layer 2.
In a specific implementation manner, the radial height of the cavity 6 decreases gradually from the middle of the cavity to the periphery of the cavity 6.
As shown in
In a specific implementation manner, the maximum size of the cavity 6 occupying a surface of the electric connection skeleton 1 is less than or equal to the maximum outer diameter of the electric connection skeleton 1.
As shown in
In a specific implementation manner, the sum of the areas of the cavities 6 on a surface of the bent portion 4 accounts for 20% to 80% of the surface area of the bent portion 4.
As shown in
A method for testing the temperature rises of the bent portions 4 is as follows: sealing the bent portions 4 in closed spaces with the same sizes, arranging a plurality of temperature sensors in the closed spaces, when the electric energy transmission system has no electricity, measuring the temperature values in the closed spaces and performing averaging, then introducing a stable current to the electric energy transmission system, after the temperatures in the closed spaces are stabilized, measuring the temperature values in the closed spaces and performing averaging, and the temperature rise value of the bending portion 4 is obtained by subtracting the two temperature average values. In this embodiment, the temperature rise value less than 50 K is a qualified value.
A method for testing the breakdown resistance voltage of the bent portion 4 is as follows: introducing a stable current into the electric energy transmission system, respectively arranging electrodes on the electric connection skeleton 1 of the bent portion 4 and the insulating layer 2 of the bent portion 4, respectively, introducing a direct-current high voltage into the two electrodes, and when the two electrodes are subjected to breakdown, recording the voltage value at that time. In this embodiment, the breakdown resistance voltage value greater than 2.1 KV is a qualified value.
It can be seen from Table 6 that when the ratio of the sum of the areas of the cavities 6 on the surface of the bent portion 4 to the surface area of the bent portion 4 is less than 20%, the temperature rise value of the bent portion 4 is greater than 50 K, the breakdown resistance voltage value is less than 2.1 KV, and the two values are unacceptable. When the ratio of the sum of the areas of the cavities 6 on the surface of the bent portion 4 to the surface area of the bent portion 4 is greater than 80%, the rise amplitudes of the temperature rise value and the breakdown voltage value of the bent portion 4 are small. However, the manufacturing difficulty of the cavities 6 is greatly increased. In addition, there are many cavities 6, the strength of the insulating layer 2 is reduced, and sinking or damage is caused easily by the external force. Therefore, the inventor sets that the sum of the areas of the cavities 6 on the surface of the bent portion 4 accounts for 20% to 80% of the surface area of the bent portion 4.
A radial shape of the cavity 6 is a circular shape, or an oval shape, or a polygonal shape, or a sector shape, or a prismatic shape or a fusiform shape. A user can select the different radial shapes according to different environments and usage requirements.
The connectors 3 are charging sockets. As shown in
