    摘要: A power supply module for a vehicle comprises a battery system (13) including a first output terminal (Out 1) and a second output terminal (Out 2), wherein the battery system (13) is connected with a AC/DC converter (12) of the vehicle, the AC/DC converter (12) includes a DC terminal (DC) and an AC terminal (AC), the DC terminal (DC) is connected with the first output terminal (Out 1) of the battery system (13) and the AC terminal (AC) is connected to a motor generator (11) of the vehicle cooperating with the power supply module (10), so as to form a first output (i1), wherein the second output terminal (Out 2) is connected to a power supply distribution center (17) of the vehicle, so as to form a second output (i2), and wherein the battery system (13) includes a lead-carbon battery. There are also provided a power supply system comprising the power supply module for a vehicle, a vehicle comprising the power supply system for a vehicle, and a method of arranging a power supply module for a vehicle. The lithium ion battery and the battery management system in the prior art are replaced with the lead-carbon battery. As the working environment temperature has little influence on the lead-carbon battery, the freedom for the arrangement position of the lead-carbon battery is increased. It is no longer necessary to arrange the lead-carbon battery away from the engine, or additionally take heat preservation factors into account. The lead-carbon battery may be arranged under the engine hood or next to the engine. As a result, the length of the cable required for connection will be greatly shortened, which effectively lowers the manufacturing cost.

    摘要: The disclosure provides a fuel saving robot system of mixed hybrid heavy duty trucks mainly for long haul logistics on highways. According to the vehicle-mounted 3D electronic map, the dynamic 3D positioning data of the vehicle measured by the GNSS, parameters of vehicle subsystems and the state of charge of the power battery pack, and data such as relative speed and absolute distance between the vehicle and the vehicle ahead in the same lane measured by the forward looking millimeter wave radar, the electrical power split device is commanded by the vehicle control unit through dynamic collaboration between the cloud AI brain and the vehicle-mounted AI brain of the fuel saving robot to allocate the flow direction and amplitude of 100 kW-class electric power accurately and dynamically among the internal combustion engine, generator, battery pack and driving motor with response time of 10 ms level, meet the transient power balance required by the vehicle dynamics equation in real time, and achieve the beneficial effects of minimization of vehicle fuel consumption and emissions, reduction of drivers' labor intensity of long-distance driving, improvement of active safety of vehicle running and the like through the fuel saving control algorithm of predictive adaptive cruise.

    摘要: A Level IV fuel-saving robot system for ACE HDTs of the present disclosure focuses on the minimization of actual fuel consumption (L/100 km) for long-haul freight at first based on an electrical power split device (cPSD) and a mixed hybrid powertrain architecture. A basic model Level I fuel-saving robot realizes a longitudinal L1 automatic driving function through a predictive adaptive cruise (PACC) technology within an Operational Design Domain (ODD) for highways and reduces the actual fuel consumption of an ACE HDT by more than 20% compared with modern diesel HDTs, and the energy-saving and emission-reducing effect of the basic model Level I fuel-saving robot is decoupled from both the technical level of a vehicle engine and the driving level of a driver; an advanced Level IV fuel-saving robot has a IA automatic driving function within the ODD for highways, operates in a “shadow mode” or “detached mode”, automatically generates a discrepancy report or detachment report, completes the “3R.” batch validation for an L4 system on a billion mile scale quickly with high cost effectiveness on the premise of ensuring the traffic safety of existing road users and reduces the total validation expense by more than 65% compared with the modern HDT with internal combustion engine equipped with the L4 system, promoting the early commercialization of the Level IV fuel-saving robot.
