Mounting structure of thermal management module for vehicle
Abstract
A mounting structure of a thermal management module for a vehicle according to an embodiment of the present disclosure includes: front side members extending along a length direction of a vehicle and disposed on left and right sides of the vehicle, respectively, in a width direction of the vehicle; a dash reinforcement crossmember extending along the width direction of the vehicle and coupled to rear ends of the front side members on the left and right sides based on a front and rear direction of the vehicle; a crossmember dividing a space formed by the front side members into two spaces in the front and rear direction of the vehicle; and at least one mounting bracket, on which the thermal management module is mounted, configured to mount the thermal management module in one of the two spaces divided by the crossmember.
Claims
exact text as granted — not AI-modifiedWhat is claimed is:
1 . A mounting structure of a thermal management module for a vehicle, comprising:
front side members extending along a longitudinal direction of the vehicle and disposed on left and right sides of the vehicle, respectively; a dash reinforcement crossmember extending along a lateral direction of the vehicle and coupled to rear portions of the front side members; and a bumper beam extending along the lateral direction of the vehicle and connected to front portions of the side members; wherein the thermal management module is disposed in a space defined by the front side members, the dash reinforcement crossmember, and the bumper member.
2 . The mounting structure of the thermal management module for the vehicle of claim 1 , further comprising
a crossmember dividing the space into two spaces in the longitudinal direction of the vehicle, wherein the thermal management module is disposed in any one of the two spaces.
3 . The mounting structure of the thermal management module for the vehicle of claim 2 , further comprising
at least one mounting bracket configured to mount the thermal management module in one of the two spaces.
4 . The mounting structure of the thermal management module for the vehicle of claim 1 , wherein
the thermal management module includes: a coolant circulator through which a coolant is circulated inside by an operation of each constituent element; and a refrigerant circulator through which a refrigerant is circulated inside by the operation of each constituent element.
5 . The mounting structure of the thermal management module for the vehicle of claim 4 , wherein
the coolant circulator is configured inside a first housing and includes least one of a water pump, a reservoir tank, an electric heater, or at least one water valve that is connected through a coolant flow path block forming a flow passage of the coolant.
6 . The mounting structure of the thermal management module for the vehicle of claim 4 , wherein
the refrigerant circulator is configured inside a second housing and includes at least one of a compressor, a condenser, an expansion valve, an evaporator, an accumulator, at least one refrigerant valve, or a chiller that is connected through a refrigerant flow path block forming a flow passage of the refrigerant.
7 . The mounting structure of the thermal management module for the vehicle of claim 2 , wherein
the crossmember is mounted by connecting both ends thereof to the front side members, respectively, in the lateral direction of the vehicle, and the both ends are respectively coupled to inner surfaces of the front side members at positions spaced apart from the dash reinforcement crossmember toward the front of the vehicle at a predetermined interval.Join the waitlist — get patent alerts
