[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, the battery module 100 according to the embodiment of the present invention includes a battery cell module 10 , a bracket 20 and a connecting sheet 30 .
[0047] Specifically, the cell module 10 includes a plurality of cell units 11, each of which has a pole 12. The bracket 20 includes a mounting area 21 and a heat transfer area 22. The bracket 20 is disposed on one side of the cell module 10 through the mounting area 21, and each pole 12 extends out of the mounting area 21. The connecting piece 30 is disposed in the mounting area 21 of the bracket 20, and the connecting piece 30 is connected to the pole 12; the heat transfer area 22 is close to the connecting piece 30, and the heat transfer area 22 is used to conduct heat at the position of the connecting piece 30.
[0048] In other words, see Figure 1 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the battery module 100 is mainly composed of a battery cell module 10, a bracket 20 and a connecting sheet 30. Among them, the battery cell module 10 includes a plurality of battery cell units 11, and a plurality of battery cell units 11 are arranged in a row to form a battery cell module 10, and each battery cell unit 11 has a pole 12. Aerogel 51 can be placed between two adjacent battery cell units 11 to achieve heat insulation between the battery cell units 11 and absorb battery cell expansion. The thickness of each aerogel 51 can be 0.5-4mm. Of course, the thickness of the aerogel 51 can be specifically selected according to other parameters of the battery module 100, thermal diffusion requirements, etc.
[0049] like Figure 2 As shown, the bracket 20 includes an installation area 21 and a heat transfer area 22, wherein the bracket 20 can be installed on one side of the battery module 10 through the installation area 21, and the pole 12 in each battery unit 11 can extend out of the installation area 21 respectively. The connecting piece 30 can be installed in the installation area 21 of the bracket 20, and the connecting piece 30 is connected to the pole 12. The bracket 20 is located between the battery module 10 and the connecting piece 30. On the one hand, it can be used to fix the position of the connecting piece 30 to ensure the reliability of the connection between the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12. On the other hand, it can ensure the insulation between the connecting piece 30 and the shell of the battery module 10. The heat transfer area 22 is close to the connecting piece 30, and the heat transfer area 22 can be used to export the heat at the position of the connecting piece 30, so as to realize the active heat dissipation at the pole 12 and the connection position, and ensure that the temperature of the pole 12 and the connecting piece 30 can be controlled within a suitable range, so as to prevent the temperature of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 from being too high, affecting the working efficiency and service life of the battery module 100, and meeting the requirements of high power and short time fast charging.
[0050] Therefore, according to the battery module 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the mounting area 21 and the heat transfer area 22 are set on the bracket 20, and the mounting area 21 is used to fix the bracket 20 on the battery module 10, and is also used for the installation and connection of the connecting piece 30 and the bracket 20. The heat transfer area 22 is used to conduct the heat generated by the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12, realize the active heat dissipation of the connecting piece 30, improve the heat dissipation efficiency at the position of the connecting piece 30, prevent the temperature of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 from being too high, affect the working efficiency and service life of the battery module 100, and meet the requirements of high power and short time fast charging.
[0051] According to one embodiment of the present invention, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The mounting area 21 includes a plurality of through holes 24 arranged in a row along one side of the battery module 10, and each pole 12 extends out of the corresponding through hole 24. The connecting piece 30 is arranged on the bracket 20, and the connecting piece 30 can be connected to each pole 12 respectively. The bracket 20 is located between the battery module 10 and the connecting piece 30. On the one hand, it can be used to fix the position of the connecting piece 30 to ensure the reliability of the connection between the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12. On the other hand, it can ensure the insulation between the connecting piece 30 and the shell of the battery module 10. The connecting piece 30 can be firmly connected to the pole 12 by laser welding or other connection methods, so as to achieve series and parallel connection between the battery units 11.
[0052] According to one embodiment of the present invention, the portion of the bracket 20 located in the heat transfer area 22 forms a heat pipe 23. Figure 2 As shown, the portion of the bracket 20 located in the heat transfer area 22 can form a heat pipe 23. The heat pipe 23 has good thermal conductivity. By designing the heat pipe 23 in the heat transfer area 22 of the bracket 20, the advantage of the high heat exchange capacity of the heat pipe 23 can be applied to the battery module 100, and the heat generated by the connecting plate 30 and the pole 12 can be quickly transferred out, thereby achieving efficient heat dissipation, controlling the temperature at the connecting plate 30, and further improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the battery module 100.
[0053] Of course, the specific shape of the heat pipe 23 and the extension path of the heat pipe 23 can be specifically limited according to the specific shape of the bracket 20, etc., and will not be described in detail in the present invention.
[0054] In some specific embodiments of the present invention, the bracket 20 is a plastic part. A vacuum is formed in the heat transfer area 22, and a working fluid is provided in the heat transfer area 22. The heat transfer area 22 includes: an evaporation section 25 and a condensation section 26. The evaporation section 25 corresponds to the position of the pole 12. The working fluid is heated in the evaporation section 25 and condensed in the condensation section 26.
[0055] In other words, the bracket 20 can be made of plastic with high thermal conductivity or other insulating materials. The bracket 20 is mainly composed of two parts: the installation area 21 and the heat transfer area 22. Among them, the installation area 21 constitutes the structural and functional part of the bracket 20, which is mainly used to realize the functions of bracket 20 installation, connecting piece 30 fixation and insulation protection. The heat transfer area 22 is mainly used for heat conduction at the connecting piece 30. The heat pipe 23 is located in the installation area 21 and can extend to the heat transfer area 22. The heat transfer area 22 can be evacuated first, and then an appropriate amount of working fluid can be filled into the heat transfer area 22. The working fluid can be reasonably selected according to the temperature range that needs to be controlled. The working fluid can be distilled water, ethanol, refrigerant, fluorinated liquid, etc. As Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the heat transfer area 22 is mainly composed of an evaporation section 25 and a condensation section 26, wherein the evaporation section 25 corresponds to the position of the pole 12, and the evaporation section 25 is located near the pole 12, so as to absorb the heat near the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12. A flow channel is formed between the condensation section 26 and the evaporation section 25. The specific shapes of the condensation section 26 and the evaporation section 25 can be specifically set according to the shape of the bracket 20 and the heat dissipation requirements.
[0056] When the battery pack 200 is fast charged at high power, the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 generate Joule heat to heat the working fluid of the evaporation section 25. Figure 3 The part above the middle dotted line is the condensation section 26, and the part below the dotted line is the evaporation section 25. The working fluid absorbs heat and evaporates. The steam generated by the evaporation of the working fluid flows to the condensation section 26 through the flow channel, and is cooled and condensed in the condensation section 26. Under the action of gravity / capillary force, the condensed liquid returns to the evaporation section 25 through the flow channel to absorb heat. In this way, the heat of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 is transferred back and forth, achieving efficient heat dissipation of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12, preventing the temperature of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 from being too high, affecting the working efficiency and service life of the battery module 100, and meeting the requirements of high power and short-time fast charging.
[0057] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the battery module 100 further includes a protective cover 40 , which is disposed on the bracket 20 , and the connecting piece 30 is located between the protective cover 40 and the bracket 20 .
[0058] That is, see Figure 1 The battery module 100 may further include a protective cover 40, which may be mounted on the bracket 20, and the connecting piece 30 is located between the protective cover 40 and the bracket 20. The protective cover 40 may protect and insulate the connecting piece 30 and the battery cell unit 11.
[0059] Of course, the battery module 100 may also include a flexible circuit board 52 (FPC), an insulating heat-insulating board 53, a thermally conductive adhesive 54 and other structures, wherein the flexible circuit board 52 can be used to monitor the voltage and temperature of the battery module 100, and can communicate with the BMS (Battery Management System) of the battery pack 200 through the flexible circuit board 52. The insulating heat-insulating board 53 can be arranged between the battery module 100 and the expansion beam of the tray 210 of the battery pack 200 to play a role in heat insulation and insulation. Of course, for those skilled in the art, other structures of the battery module 100 and its working principle are understandable and achievable, and will not be described in detail in the present invention.
[0060] In summary, according to the battery module 100 of the embodiment of the present invention, the mounting area 21 and the heat transfer area 22 are set on the bracket 20, and the mounting area 21 is used to fix the bracket 20 on the battery module 10, and is also used for the installation and connection of the connecting piece 30 and the bracket 20. The heat transfer area 22 is used to conduct the heat generated by the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12, realize the active heat dissipation of the connecting piece 30, improve the heat dissipation efficiency at the position of the connecting piece 30, prevent the temperature of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 from being too high, affect the working efficiency and service life of the battery module 100, and meet the requirements of high power and short time fast charging.

The first liquid cooling plate 220 is covered on the tray 210, and the heat transfer area 22 of the bracket 20 in the battery module 100 is close to the first liquid cooling plate 220.
[0063] In other words, see Figure 4The battery pack 200 according to the embodiment of the present invention is mainly composed of a tray 210, at least one battery module 100 and a first liquid cooling plate 220. Among them, at least one mounting cavity 214 is provided in the tray 210, and the number of the battery modules 100 in at least one of the above embodiments corresponds to the number of the mounting cavities 214, and the battery modules 100 are installed in the mounting cavities 214, wherein the protective cover 40 in the battery module 100 can be connected to the tray 210. The first liquid cooling plate 220 can be covered on the tray 210, and the heat transfer area 22 of the bracket 20 in the battery module 100 can be close to the first liquid cooling plate 220. The heat transfer area 22 of the bracket 20 is designed as a heat pipe 23. The heat pipe 23 has good thermal conductivity. By setting the heat pipe 23, the advantage of the high heat exchange capacity of the heat pipe 23 can be applied to the battery module 100, and the heat generated by the connecting plate 30 and the pole 12 can be quickly transferred out to achieve efficient heat dissipation, control the temperature at the connecting plate 30, and further improve the heat dissipation efficiency of the battery module 100.
[0064] When the battery pack 200 is fast charged at high power, the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 generate Joule heat, heating the working fluid in the evaporation section 25, and the working fluid absorbs heat and evaporates. The vapor generated by the evaporation of the working fluid flows through the flow channel to the condensation section 26, where it is cooled and condensed. Under the action of gravity / capillary force, the condensed liquid returns to the evaporation section 25 through the flow channel to absorb heat. In this way, the heat of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 is transferred to the first liquid cooling plate 220 back and forth, achieving active heat dissipation of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12, preventing the temperature of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 from being too high, affecting the working efficiency and service life of the battery module 100, and meeting the requirements of high power and short-time fast charging.
[0065] Therefore, according to the battery pack 200 of the embodiment of the present invention, the mounting area 21 and the heat transfer area 22 are set on the bracket 20, and the mounting area 21 is used to fix the bracket 20 on the battery module 10, and is also used for the installation and connection of the connecting piece 30 and the bracket 20. The heat transfer area 22 is used to conduct the heat generated by the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12, realize the active heat dissipation of the connecting piece 30, improve the heat dissipation efficiency at the position of the connecting piece 30, prevent the temperature of the connecting piece 30 and the pole 12 from being too high, affect the working efficiency and service life of the battery module 100, and meet the requirements of high power and short time fast charging.
[0066] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the bottom plate of the tray 210 forms a second liquid cooling plate 211 , and the second liquid cooling plate 211 is disposed opposite to the first liquid cooling plate 220 .
[0067] That is to say, the second liquid cooling plate 211 can be directly integrated as the bottom plate of the tray 210, and the first liquid cooling plate 220 can be used as a sealing cover of the battery pack 200 to enhance the heat dissipation capacity of the entire pack, thereby improving the fast charging capacity of the entire pack. The second liquid cooling plate 211 is arranged opposite to the first liquid cooling plate 220. Of course, the second liquid cooling plate 211 can also be arranged separately at the bottom of the tray 210.

The tray 210 may also be provided with a water inlet 215 and a water outlet 216 communicating with the internal pipeline of the second liquid cooling plate 211.
