Embodiment Construction

[0031] Identical elements in different figures are marked with the same reference numerals.

[0032] Such as Figure 1a and 1b As shown, the thermal battery 1 generally has a storage container 3 and an inlet pipe 7a and an outlet pipe 7b for the fluid. These fluid inlet and outlet pipes 7a, 7b are connected to a circulation circuit for said fluid.

[0033] The storage container 3 may, for example, allow a fluid to be stored, or may contain a material designed to store thermal energy, such as a phase change material, in order to heat or cool the fluid as it passes through the thermal battery.

[0034] In order to thermally insulate the storage container 3 from the environment, the storage container can be surrounded by a thermally insulating layer 5 .

[0035] The thermal battery 1 also includes at least two shut-off valves 9 . Shut-off valves 9 are arranged respectively on the inlet pipe 7a and the outlet pipe 7b in order to insulate the fluid contained in the storage conta...

Abstract

The invention relates to a heat battery (1) comprising a storage container (3) and inlet (7a) and outlet (7b) pipes for a fluid connected to a flow circuit, the heat The battery (1) also includes at least two shut-off valves (9), which are respectively arranged on the fluid inlet pipe (7a) and the fluid outlet pipe (7b), so that when the flow of said fluid is closed, the fluid contained in the storage container Insulated from the fluid in (3), said shut-off valve (9) is automatic and comprises: an enclosure (91) containing a fluid and comprising an inlet (93a) and an outlet (93b) for said fluid; and a float (11), which is movable between an upper position in which the float floats and blocks at least the fluid outlet (93b) when the flow circuit is closed, and a lower position in which the float is submerged when the flow circuit is in operation , and fluid is allowed to flow between the inlet (93a) and the outlet (93b).

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of thermal batteries, and more particularly to a thermal battery arranged in a thermal management circuit of a motor vehicle. Background technique [0002] Thermal batteries are commonly used to heat the passenger compartment, especially in electric and hybrid vehicles, or to preheat heat transfer fluids in thermal management circuits. The thermal battery can also be used to preheat the engine oil or the oil of an automatic transmission of a vehicle with an internal combustion engine. [0003] These thermal batteries typically carry thermal energy for future use when the motor vehicle is being driven. The challenge for these thermal batteries is therefore to keep the stored thermal energy long enough so that the battery is hot enough for subsequent use. [0004] A known solution for preventing the dissipation of thermal energy is to install thermal insulation around the entire thermal battery. Different types of in...
