[0056] The present invention will be further described below through specific implementation modes in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0057] Example 1

[0058] like Figure 1-11 As shown, an aluminum extruded modular high-strength compact quick-release lithium battery includes a bottom plate 1, an outer tube 2, a potting compound 3, a battery 4, an insulating plate 5, a BMS module 6, an upper cover module 7, a wiring harness 8, a sealing ring 9 and a copper bus 10. The upper part of the bottom plate 1 is connected to the lower part of the outer tube 2, the potting compound 3 covers the bottom plate 1, the battery 4 includes a plurality of battery cells, the battery 4 is located in the outer tube 2 and plugged into the potting compound 3, an insulating plate 5 is provided between the battery cells and between the battery cells and the outer tube 2, the copper bus 10 is fixedly mounted on the battery 4, the BMS module 6 is provided above the battery 4 and fixedly connected to the outer tube 2, the upper cover module 7 is connected to the outer tube 2 through a sealing ring 9, and the battery 4, the BMS module 6, and the upper cover module 7 are connected through a wiring harness 8.

[0059] Furthermore, the upper cover module 7 includes an upper cover 11, a connector 12 and a handle 13, the connector 12 and the handle 13 are installed on the upper cover 11, the upper and lower sides of the upper cover 11 are folded down and bent inward, the angle between the inner bend and the lower folded part of the upper cover 11 is ≤90°, the upper cover 11 is folded down vertically, a toothed limiting block 14 is provided at one folded end of the upper cover 11, and a mounting hole 15 is provided on the upper cover 11 for installing the connector 12. The upper cover 11 can be made of sheet metal or injection molded parts. The upper cover module 7 will be provided with more components according to the specific needs of the product, such as connectors are divided into power connectors and communication connectors, etc. Such design changes are all within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0060] Furthermore, the lower fold and inner bend of the upper cover plate 11 are arranged in segments, corresponding to the limit boss 16 structure of the outer cylinder 2, to produce a pair of mechanisms for limiting the vertical displacement of the upper cover plate 11 and the outer cylinder 2. The upper cover plate 11 can shorten the sliding distance of the upper cover plate 11 to the same width as the limit boss 16 on the outer cylinder 2 through the lower fold and inner bend structure arranged in segments, which greatly shortens the assembly distance of the upper cover plate 11, greatly shortens the length of the related wiring harness 8, and greatly reduces the difficulty of assembling the upper cover plate 11. The toothed limiting block 14 cooperates with the reinforcing boss 17 of the outer cylinder 2 to play a lateral limiting role.

[0061] Furthermore, the outer cylinder 2 is provided with a plurality of staggered reinforcing bosses 17 on both sides, which play a role in enhancing the strength of the outer cylinder 2 and resisting the expansion and deformation of the battery cell. The bottom and top of the outer cylinder 2 are provided with slide grooves 18, and the ends of the slide grooves 18 are provided with limiting bosses 16. The limiting bosses 16 are used to limit the lateral movement of the bottom plate 1 and the upper cover plate 11. The outer cylinder 2 is provided with a plurality of threaded holes for installing the BMS module 6 and the bottom plate 1, which play a role in lateral limiting. The outer cylinder 2 can be formed by an extrusion molding process, and the reinforcing bosses 17 on both sides of the outer cylinder 2 can cooperate with each other for inserting, which is convenient for placing and transporting lithium batteries, not only saving space but also more stable. Different reinforcing boss 17 structures, as long as the insertion principle is used, all belong to the protection scope of this patent.

[0062] Furthermore, the upper and lower sides of the bottom plate 1 are folded upward and inwardly, the upper fold of the bottom plate 1 is a vertical fold, the angle between the inward bend and the upper fold of the bottom plate 1 is ≤90°, the right end of the upper fold of the bottom plate 1 is provided with a notch 19, and the left end of the upper fold of the bottom plate is provided with a countersunk screw hole. The bottom plate 1 can be manufactured by extrusion molding or bending molding process, and the notch 19 can cooperate with the limiting boss 16 of the bottom slide groove of the outer cylinder 2 for lateral limitation of the bottom plate 1.

[0063] Furthermore, the BMS module 6 includes an insulating block 20, a BMS module mounting plate 21 and a BMS integrated circuit board 22. The insulating block 20 is installed at the bottom of the BMS module mounting plate 21, and the BMS integrated circuit board 22 is installed on the top of the BMS module mounting plate 21. The insulating block 20 is used to press the upper surface of the battery cell and limit the vertical direction of the battery cell.

[0064] Furthermore, the bottom plate 1 and the outer cylinder 2 are both made of metal aluminum, which greatly increases the heat dissipation performance of the entire lithium battery. The potting glue 3 is made of an organic silicone thermal conductive glue material that only has adsorption force but no bonding force. The lateral constraint between the lower half of the battery cell and the battery shell is achieved through the potting glue 3. Before installation, the liquid potting glue 3 is injected into the bottom of the lithium battery shell, and then the battery cell is loaded into the shell, pressed and leveled. After the potting glue 3 is cured, it plays a lateral limiting and restraining role on the lower half of the battery cell. Different potting glue materials and filling forms all fall within the scope of protection of this patent.

[0065] Furthermore, the bottom plate 1, the outer cylinder 2 and the upper cover plate 11 constitute a lithium battery shell, and the lateral constraint between the top of the battery cell and the lithium battery shell is achieved by inserting an insulating plate 5. According to the different gaps between the top of the battery cell and the battery shell, insulating plates 5 of different thicknesses and materials are inserted to play a role of lateral limiting and fixing. Different insulating plate 5 materials and structural forms all fall within the scope of protection of this patent; the vertical constraint of the battery cell is achieved through two aspects, first, adsorption force and friction force: that is, the adsorption force generated by the cured potting glue 3 on the lower half of the battery cell, and the friction force between the insulating plate 5 and the upper half of the battery cell and the outer cylinder 2; the second is the vertical constraint limit force of the insulating block 20 on the BMS module 6 on the battery cell. Any vertical constraint form using one or more of the present invention is within the scope of protection of this patent.
