Among new energy vehicle companies, "spontaneous combustion" is undoubtedly a lingering and worrying keyword. Whether it is hundreds of thousands of high-end new energy vehicles or extended-range hybrid vehicles, they have fallen into the "crisis" of spontaneous combustion of vehicles more than once. However, among the many car companies, is there any car company that can truly achieve the miracle of "zero spontaneous combustion"? The answer is yes, this car company is Jihu Automobile.
So let's take a look at it today, how did Jihu Motors do such a "show"!
In order to realize that the battery of new energy vehicles does not catch fire in the event of a collision, the key is to ensure that the battery pack has excellent "impact resistance" ability, which requires that the body structure and power battery must have an indestructible "protective shell".
Passive Safety: Creating an Impeccable Bell Jar
In this regard, ARCFOX Motors has shown a very high "sincerity in using materials". Not only did they increase the proportion of high-strength steel and aluminum alloy bodies to 80%, but they also used 1,500MPa hot-stamping steel in key locations such as A, B-pillar and door sills. This steel is commonly used in high-end industrial products such as space shuttles and submarines, and its compressive capacity is 4 times that of ordinary steel, and it can withstand more than 10 tons of pressure per square centimeter. What is this feeling? For example, two elephants standing on an ant, or 30 polar bears standing on rubber-sized ice, are so resilient to stress. The newly launched ARCFOX Alpha S5 four-door door anti-collision beam is made of the industry's highest 2GPa-level ultra-high-strength hot-stamping steel material, with a three-dimensional protective shield of "Titan body", creating an impeccable mobile safety fortress for users while driving. It is this "rock-solid" body structure that can effectively resist the impact in the event of a collision and effectively ensure the safety of the passenger compartment and battery compartment.
Battery pack safety: a strong "barrier" that surpasses the national standard
If a solid body is the primary "defensive barrier" for battery safety, then the "anti-hitting" ability shown by the battery pack itself is undoubtedly the last and unbreakable solid "barrier" to ensure battery safety.
The battery pack of ARCFOX Motors is made of 6 series aluminum alloy shell, and has undergone precision extrusion molding and welding glue composite connection and other processes. Inside the battery pack, the uniquely designed four-horizontal and one-longitudinal reinforcing beam structure is like a tough "protective net", which tightly surrounds the battery module and can effectively absorb and decompose the energy generated by the collision. The topology optimization of the side beam cavity structure further improves the protective performance of the battery pack and ensures that the battery cells are not damaged during the collision. Not only that, on the outside of the ARCFOX battery pack, it is also equipped with an outer frame up to 50mm thick, which provides users with more powerful protection compared to the common 23~30mm of similar products. It is precisely this protective measure that enables the ARCFOX battery pack to show excellent performance beyond the requirements of national standards in the forward collision test equivalent to 80km/h and the lateral collision test of 60km/h, thus ensuring the passive safety of the battery.
After talking about the sturdy "passive safety" of Jihu Motors, let's take a look at its "active safety".
Put simply, active safety is "a vehicle's ability to anticipate and avoid potential safety hazards." In the field of battery safety, this point is extremely important. In order to protect against potential risks such as thermal runaway, vehicles must have robust "active safety" technology to prevent them in advance.
Active Safety: Triple protection against "burning".
In response to this aspect, ARCFOX Motors adopts a triple protection design. First of all, in terms of electricity safety, ARCFOX Motors has introduced an "electric wall" design to ensure that when the risk of high-voltage exposure is exposed after a collision, the high-voltage discharge can be completed within 1 second, which can quickly suppress the deterioration of thermal runaway and greatly reduce the risk of runaway. Secondly, the built-in V0 flame retardant ceramic fiber fire blanket is like putting on a "fire suit" for the battery, which can not only insulate heat but also prevent impact. Finally, the innovative thermal management design of "dry and wet separation" is adopted to effectively avoid the risk of secondary accidents caused by coolant leakage after the battery is damaged. It further ensures the user's travel safety and the stability of battery use.
It is particularly worth mentioning that the Extreme Fox battery is not only not afraid of "fire refining", but also a "water warrior".
Waterproof: IP68 "Warrior in the Water"
Through the use of new self-tapping riveting technology FDS, precision sealing foam, and the first integrated design of the battery box rubber riveting composite process, the application of these advanced technologies has enabled the ARCFOX battery pack to meet the IP68 waterproof standard. Even after 1 hour of immersion, it can remain water-free, which far exceeds the international standard of 30 minutes. Whether it is facing high temperature scorching or underwater immersion, ARCFOX batteries can bring users a safe and comfortable driving experience with stable and reliable performance.
In the pursuit of ultimate safety, ARCFOX Motors has always taken the highest standards in the industry as its starting line, and has a firm attitude of zero tolerance for battery safety hazards. By carefully building a sturdy body structure, designing a battery pack that is not afraid of collision, and combining advanced triple protection design and excellent waterproof performance, it provides users with all-round battery safety guarantee without dead ends, and successfully achieves the excellent result of "zero spontaneous combustion". This persistent pursuit of safety has not only won the trust and praise of the majority of users, but also set a new safety model for the new energy vehicle market, leading the entire industry and making future travel safer.
