20220402352 · 2022-12-22 ·

Disclosed embodiments include apparatuses, vehicles, machines, equipment, and methods for selectively allocating airflow between different heat exchangers. In an illustrative embodiment, an apparatus includes a first heat exchanger configured to dissipate heat from at least one first system. A second heat exchanger is configured to dissipate heat from at least one second system. An airflow controller is configured to receive an intake airflow and to direct an output airflow to selectively direct at least a portion of the output airflow to either or both of the first and second heat exchangers.

Vehicle cooler

A vehicle cooler includes a radiator, a condenser, and an air guide bridging from a top surface of the radiator over a top surface of the condenser. The air guide includes a body part including a first base face placed on the top surface of the condenser, a second base face placed on the top surface of the radiator, and a standing wall extending in a height direction of a vehicle for coupling the first base face and the second base face. The standing wall faces a front surface of the radiator with respect to a forward-rearward direction of the vehicle, and includes air holes for guiding outside air to the radiator.

POWER SUPPLY SYSTEM

A power supply system (10) is used for supplying power to a power system of an electric tractor and comprises a bracket (100) that is provided above and below a frame of a transport trailer, first cases (200) that are provided on the bracket and first power battery packs that are suspended inside the first case. Each of the first cases is provided with a first ventilation structure and a second ventilation structure (211) so that while the transport trailer is moving, wind can enter the first case from the first ventilation structure and be discharged from the second ventilation structure, thus achieving further cooling and heat dissipation for the first power battery packs and avoiding service life being impacted due to the first power battery pack overheating.

Front end structure

The present invention provides a front end structure in which cooling performance can be improved. A front end structure according to an aspect of the present invention includes a frame portion 41 that surrounds an outer circumferential part of a heat exchanger and supports the heat exchanger; a duct portion 42 that is connected to an inner circumferential edge of the frame portion 41 and guides outside air, which is taken in through a first introduction port 61, in at least an up-down direction through a space between the duct portion 42 and a front surface of the heat exchanger; and a division portion 43 that is provided in at least one of the frame portion 41 and the duct portion 42 and partitions the heat exchanger into a heat exchange area in which outside air is able to pass through in a front-rear direction and a support area which is positioned on a side circumferentially outward from the heat exchange area and is supported by the frame portion 41.

VEHICLE FRONT BODY STRUCTURE

A vehicle front body structure includes a duct member that surrounds a radiator on an inner side in a vehicle width direction of a right and left pair of crash cans. The duct member is a member that completely surrounds the radiator and includes side duct sections and an upper duct section. The side duct sections and the upper duct section are connected such that, when the duct member receives a specified load from a bumper member of a body during a frontal collision, the side duct sections and the upper duct section are disengaged from each other in the engagement sections.
