[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3, shown is a heat dissipation and thermal insulation device for a power battery pack provided by an embodiment of the present invention. The heat dissipation and thermal insulation device for the power battery pack provided by this embodiment can transfer the heat generated on the side of the battery pack to the liquid cooling plate through the heat dissipation structure inside the heat dissipation plate and the refrigerant. At this time, the liquid cooling plate can absorb the heat generated at the bottom and side of the above battery pack through the coolant flowing inside it, so as to effectively absorb the heat generated by the above battery pack, and then can greatly improve the heat dissipation effect of the battery pack. At the same time, the heat dissipation is more uniform, effectively improving the service performance of the battery pack.
[0037] Specifically, the heat dissipation and thermal insulation device for the power battery pack provided by this embodiment includes a liquid cooling plate 10 and a plurality of heat dissipation plates 20. A flow structure is provided on the liquid cooling plate 10 for circulating the coolant. A plurality of accommodation grooves 11 are provided in the middle of the liquid cooling plate 10, and the plurality of accommodation grooves 11 are staggered and distributed on the upper and lower surfaces of the liquid cooling plate 10. One end of the heat dissipation plate 20 is vertically arranged in the accommodation groove 11. A heat dissipation structure and a refrigerant flowing in the heat dissipation structure are provided in the heat dissipation plate 20. The heat dissipation structure and the refrigerant are used to transfer the heat received by the heat dissipation plate 20 to the liquid cooling plate 10. An accommodation space 30 is formed between two adjacent heat dissipation plates 20 for storing the battery pack 40. In addition, the liquid cooling plate 10 is communicated with the air conditioning system 50. When the temperature of the battery pack 40 is relatively low, the air conditioning system 50 is used to heat the coolant in the liquid cooling plate 10, so as to transfer the heat to a plurality of heat dissipation plates 20 through the coolant, and the heat dissipation plates 20 transfer the heat to the battery pack 40.
[0038] Among them, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, it should be noted that the overall structure of the heat dissipation and thermal insulation device for the power battery pack provided by this embodiment is mainly composed of a liquid cooling plate 10 and a plurality of heat dissipation plates 20. Among them, in this embodiment, in order to initially and effectively absorb the heat generated by the battery pack 40, the above liquid cooling plate 10 is made of aluminum. It can be understood that metal aluminum has good thermal conductivity. In this embodiment, the good thermal conductivity characteristics of metal aluminum are utilized to effectively transfer the heat generated at the end (i.e., the bottom or the top) of the above battery pack 40 to the liquid cooling plate 10, and then the heat generated by the battery pack 40 is quickly taken away by the coolant flowing inside the liquid cooling plate 10, so as to perform effective heat dissipation.
[0039] Furthermore, in this embodiment, it should be pointed out that the above heat dissipation plate 20 is made of magnesium alloy. Those skilled in the art can understand that magnesium alloy has good corrosion resistance, high strength and good thermal conductivity. Therefore, in this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the above-mentioned heat dissipation flat plate 20 can effectively transfer the heat generated on the side of the battery pack 40 to the heat dissipation structure and refrigerant inside it, and then transfer the heat to the liquid cooling plate 10 through the heat dissipation structure and refrigerant, so as to take away the heat generated on the side of the battery pack 40 by the coolant flowing inside the liquid cooling plate 10.
[0040] Furthermore, in this embodiment, as Figures 1 to 3 shown, it should also be noted that, for the convenience of installing the liquid cooling plate 10 and several heat dissipation flat plates 20, obviously, several accommodation grooves 11 are provided in the middle of the liquid cooling plate 10, and several accommodation grooves 11 are distributed vertically and alternately on the upper and lower surfaces of the liquid cooling plate 10. Further, one end of each heat dissipation flat plate 20 is correspondingly and vertically arranged in each accommodation groove 11, so that an accommodation space 30 can be formed between adjacent two heat dissipation flat plates 20. During implementation, this accommodation space 30 is used to place the battery pack 40. Preferably, in this embodiment, the accommodation groove 11 is set as a U-shaped groove. The size of the U-shaped groove is adapted to the end size of the heat dissipation flat plate 20. During installation, as Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, each battery pack 40 is correspondingly placed in each accommodation space 30. At this time, the bottom or top of the battery pack 40 can contact the liquid cooling plate 10, and the side of the battery pack 40 can contact the heat dissipation flat plate 20, and then the battery pack 40 can be effectively cooled.
[0041] In this embodiment, it should be noted that by distributing several accommodation grooves 11 vertically and alternately on the upper and lower surfaces of the liquid cooling plate 10, the heat exchange area between the heat dissipation flat plate 20 and the liquid cooling plate 10 can be increased, and at the same time, the turbulence of the coolant flowing inside the liquid cooling plate 10 can be strengthened, thereby destroying the boundary layer between the fluid and the serrations, increasing the convective heat transfer coefficient, and further strengthening the heat dissipation.
[0042] In addition, in this embodiment, as Figure 3 shown, it should also be noted that, in order to further improve the heat dissipation effect, the heat dissipation flat plate 20 includes a first cover plate 21 and a second cover plate 22. Specifically, a vacuum chamber is provided in the second cover plate 22, and a heat dissipation structure and refrigerant are provided in this vacuum chamber. During installation, the first cover plate 21 covers the above-mentioned vacuum chamber and is sealed with the second cover plate 22. Preferably, in this embodiment, the first cover plate 21 and the second cover plate 22 are sealed by welding. Further, it should be pointed out that the above-mentioned heat dissipation structure includes a vapor chamber (not shown in the figure), a wick (not shown in the figure), and several bosses (not shown in the figure). Among them, the above-mentioned wick and the above-mentioned vapor chamber are both provided between several above-mentioned bosses, and the above-mentioned vapor chamber is located above the above-mentioned wick, and the upper and lower ends of the above-mentioned bosses respectively abut against the inner sides of the first cover plate 21 and the second cover plate 22.
[0043] Furthermore, in the present embodiment, it should be noted that, in order to facilitate heat dissipation, the above-mentioned liquid absorbent core includes a plurality of pits (not shown) and fins (not shown). Specifically, the above-mentioned plurality of pits are neatly arranged in multiple rows and columns, and the above-mentioned fins are arranged around each pit. In addition, the above-mentioned fins include a first fin (not shown) and a second fin (not shown), wherein the above-mentioned first fin is arranged adjacent to the surroundings of the above-mentioned pit, and the above-mentioned second fin is located between two adjacent above-mentioned bosses. At the same time, in the present embodiment, it should also be noted that the longitudinal thermal conductivity of the above-mentioned heat dissipation plate 20 is greater than the transverse thermal conductivity, wherein the longitudinal thermal conductivity is 5000w / mk, and the transverse thermal conductivity is 0.1w / mk, thereby being able to effectively improve.
[0044] In addition, in the present embodiment, in order to facilitate the heat dissipation of the liquid cooling plate 10, the interior of the liquid cooling plate 10 is set as a hollow structure. Correspondingly, the above-mentioned flow structure includes a liquid inlet 12 arranged at one end of the liquid cooling plate 10, and a liquid outlet 13 arranged at the other end of the liquid cooling plate 10. During implementation, the liquid inlet 12 and the liquid outlet 13 are used to circulate the cooling liquid in the above-mentioned hollow structure, so that the cooling liquid can be effectively circulated quickly inside the liquid cooling plate 10 to take away the heat generated by the battery pack 40.
[0045] In addition, in this embodiment, it should be noted that, preferably, in this embodiment, the coolant is made of ethylene glycol-water solution to reduce production costs.
[0046] Furthermore, in this embodiment, if Figure 4 As shown, it should be noted that the power battery pack heat dissipation and heat preservation device provided in this embodiment will be connected to the air-conditioning system 50 inside the car during actual use, wherein the liquid inlet 12 and the liquid outlet 13 of the liquid cooling plate 10 are respectively connected to the liquid outlet and the liquid inlet of the above-mentioned air-conditioning system 50, thereby forming a closed loop circuit of the power battery pack heat dissipation and heat preservation device and the air-conditioning system 50, and the closed loop circuit is used to circulate the coolant.
[0047] Specifically, in this embodiment, in order to accurately sense the temperature of the liquid cooling plate 10, a temperature sensor 90 is further installed at one end of the liquid cooling plate 10, and the temperature sensor 90 is electrically connected to the controller inside the air conditioning system 50. Among them, when the temperature sensor 90 detects that the temperature of the liquid cooling plate 10 is relatively low, it indicates that the temperature of the battery pack is relatively low. At this time, the air conditioning system 50 will perform heating to increase the temperature of the coolant and make the coolant transfer heat to the battery pack; when the temperature sensor 90 detects that the temperature of the liquid cooling plate 10 is relatively high, it indicates that the temperature of the battery pack is relatively high. At this time, the air conditioning system will perform cooling to reduce the temperature of the coolant and make the coolant absorb the heat of the battery pack, thereby effectively improving the performance of the battery pack. In addition, the temperature sensor 90 can also accurately sense the temperature difference inside the single battery pack 40, and through the control strategy of the air conditioning system 50, the feed temperature and feed flow rate of the coolant in the corresponding reasonable balance inlet 12 can be adjusted, which can effectively reduce the start-stop frequency of the entire air conditioning system 50 and improve the service life and efficiency of the air conditioning system 50 and the battery pack 40.
[0048] In addition, in this embodiment, as Figure 4 shown, it should also be noted that the air conditioning system 50 further includes a pressure relief valve 60, and the pressure relief valve 60 is provided on the heat insulation box 70. During use, the pressure relief valve 60 is used to discharge the gas generated by the battery pack 40 during charging and discharging to balance the pressure difference inside the heat insulation box 70. Further, a heat insulation layer 80 is further coated on the periphery of the heat insulation box 70.
[0049] During use, a plurality of accommodating grooves 11 are alternately arranged on the upper and lower surfaces of the liquid cooling plate 10. During installation, one end of each heat dissipation flat plate 20 is vertically arranged in each accommodating groove 11 correspondingly, and a heat dissipation structure and a refrigerant are arranged inside the heat dissipation flat plate 20. Correspondingly, a flow structure is arranged on the liquid cooling plate 10, and the flow structure is used to circulate the coolant. During installation, the battery pack 40 is placed in the accommodating space 30. At this time, the bottom of the battery pack 40 is in contact with the liquid cooling plate 10, and the side surface of the battery pack 40 is in contact with the side wall of the heat dissipation flat plate 20. During the actual working process, the heat dissipation flat plate 20 can transfer the heat generated on the side surface of the battery pack 40 to the liquid cooling plate 10 through the heat dissipation structure and the refrigerant inside it. At this time, the liquid cooling plate 10 can absorb the heat generated on the bottom and side surfaces of the battery pack 40 through the coolant flowing inside it, thereby effectively absorbing the heat generated by the battery pack 40, and further greatly improving the heat dissipation effect on the battery pack 40, while the heat dissipation is more uniform, effectively improving the performance of the battery pack 40.
[0050] In addition, in this embodiment, it should also be pointed out that the preparation method of the heat dissipation flat plate 20 provided in this embodiment includes the following steps:
[0051] Select two identical plates as the base materials, namely the first cover plate 21 and the second cover plate 22 respectively. A vacuum chamber is machined in the second cover plate 22, and the above heat dissipation structure and the above refrigerant are arranged in the vacuum chamber.
[0052] Grooves that cooperate with each other are machined on the edges of the first cover plate 21 and the second cover plate 22 respectively, and the edges of the first cover plate 21 and the second cover plate 22 are sealed by laser welding.

[0056] Step S30: Separate the first metal plate blank from the pressure-bearing template to complete the forming process of the first metal plate blank.
