[0041] The battery plug-in box 3 provided in the application is not provided with a fan, and the normal heat dissipation and heat exchange performance of the energy storage system can be met by improving the internal ventilation structure of the battery plug-in box 3, and the operation stability is good; while the safety hidden danger is not improved, the number of fans is greatly reduced for the whole battery cluster and the energy storage system, the failure probability of the equipment is effectively reduced, the energy consumption is reduced, and the energy-saving effect is realized; by improving the internal air duct of the battery plug-in box 3, a set of efficient and power-free air duct structure is formed in the battery plug-in box, the better ventilation and heat dissipation effect of the battery plug-in box is realized, and the heat dissipation performance of the whole energy storage system is realized together with the air duct structure of the energy storage system, and the operation stability of the whole machine is improved.

Under the blocking action of the plug-in box baffle 35, the air flows along the side wall of the battery module 32, and a certain gap is also arranged between the batteries 321 in the battery module 32 and the batteries 321, so that the air flows through the gap between the batteries 321 in the process of flowing along the side wall of the battery module 32, and then flows directly forward in the space region between the battery modules 32, and finally leaves the battery plug-in box 3 through the plug-in box air outlet 34, thereby realizing heat dissipation of the multiple batteries 321 in the battery plug-in box 3.

[0044] On the basis of the above technical scheme, the second-stage air duct structure 5 is arranged at the first end of the first-stage air duct structure 4, the second-stage air duct structure 5 comprises a second-stage air duct cavity 51, a second-stage air duct inlet 52 and a second-stage air duct outlet 53, the second-stage air duct inlet 52 is arranged at both ends of the second-stage air duct cavity 51 and is communicated with the refrigeration assembly 6, the second-stage air duct outlet 53 is arranged at both sides of the second-stage air duct cavity 51 and is uniformly provided with multiple second-stage air duct outlets, the second-stage air duct outlet 53 is communicated with the first-stage air duct inlet 43, and the second-stage air duct baffle 54 is arranged at the second-stage air duct outlet 53 in the middle region.

[0045] Preferably, the refrigeration assembly 6 is arranged as an air conditioner, the air conditioner comprises an air conditioner air outlet 61 and an air conditioner air inlet 62, the air conditioner air inlet 62 is communicated with the second-stage air duct inlet 52, and cold air is provided in the energy storage system.

[0046] By setting the secondary air duct structure 5 in cooperation with the primary air duct structure 4, and setting a plurality of primary air duct structures 4 on the secondary air duct structure 5, the heat dissipation effect of the overall energy storage system is good, and the heat dissipation demand of different numbers of battery cluster racks 2 can be met, and the applicability is good. In the application, the secondary air duct inlets 52 are arranged at both ends of the secondary air duct cavities 51, and the secondary air duct baffles 54 are arranged, so that the air volume and pressure in the secondary air duct structure 5 are uniform. According to the principle of aerodynamics, the air volume is large and the air pressure is small at a position far from the air outlet, so the secondary air duct baffle 54 is arranged at the secondary air duct outlet 53 in the middle region, which plays a certain blocking role, so that the air volume blown out from the secondary air duct outlets 53 at different positions is kept relatively consistent, and the uniformity of the heat dissipation effect of the electrical elements in the energy storage system is ensured, and the temperature rise is more uniform.

[0047] More preferably, by arranging the air conditioners at both ends of the secondary air duct cavities 51, a large air volume in the secondary air duct structure 5 can be achieved, and the safety and reliability of the overall system operation can be provided. When one of the air conditioners fails, the air volume in the overall air duct is provided by the other air conditioner.

[0048] In the application, the ventilation circulation process in the air duct structure is as follows: cold air is blown out from the air conditioner air outlet 61, enters the secondary air duct cavity 51 through the secondary air duct inlets 52 at both ends, and then enters the primary air duct main body 41 and the primary air duct side plate 41, respectively, so that the cold air is blown to the back or side of the battery cluster rack 2 and the battery insertion box 3 from the primary air duct outlet 44, thereby entering the inside of each battery insertion box 3 to exchange heat with the battery, so as to take away the heat from the battery, and the temperature of the battery decreases. After gathering after the battery insertion box, the air is sucked into the inside of the air conditioner through the air conditioner air inlet after the temperature of the air is lowered after heat exchange, and then the air is blown into the secondary air duct inlet from the air conditioner air outlet, to complete a complete ventilation circulation in the air duct.

[0049] On the basis of the above technical scheme, a fan 7 is further arranged, and the fan 7 is arranged on the side wall of the primary air duct main body 41 and is in through connection with the primary air duct main body 41.

[0050] In the application, the position of the fan 7 is arranged in the primary air duct structure 4, and the traditional mode of arranging a fan assembly on each battery insertion box is changed, that is, no fan needs to be arranged on the battery insertion box. Not only the number of fans arranged in the overall product can be greatly reduced, but also the energy consumption and the failure probability of the equipment can be effectively reduced. At the same time, the deficiency of relying solely on the air volume of the air conditioner can be effectively solved, the air volume required for heat exchange of the overall energy storage system is increased, and the improvement of the air duct structure can realize timely heat dissipation in the energy storage system and the battery insertion box, the heat exchange effect is very good, and the failure risk and safety hazard of the overall energy storage system are greatly reduced.

[0051] Preferably, the fan 7 is provided with multiple and symmetrical settings on the side wall of the primary air duct body 41. By providing multiple fans 7 on the primary air duct body 41, the required heat exchange air volume in the overall energy storage system can be effectively increased. In cooperation with the air conditioner, the heat dissipation requirements of the charging and discharging work at different rates in the energy storage system can be realized. In addition, the safety hazard of delayed heat dissipation of the overall energy storage system caused by the failure of a single fan can be avoided. In actual use, the number of fans to be turned on can be selected according to the heat exchange requirements, which is more convenient to use and has better applicability. More preferably, the type of the fan can be an axial fan or a centrifugal fan, etc.

[0052] On the basis of the above technical solution, the inner side of the fan 7 is provided with an anti-backflow assembly, the anti-backflow assembly comprises an air duct one-way plate 8 and a limiting plate 9, the air duct one-way plate 8 is arranged on the side of the fan outlet and is hinged to the inner side wall of the primary air duct body 41 at the top end, and the limiting plate 9 is arranged at the bottom end of the air duct one-way plate 8 and is located on the side close to the fan 7.

[0053] By providing the anti-backflow assembly at the fan outlet, under the cooperation of the limiting plate 9 and the air duct one-way plate 8, the reverse flow of air is effectively prevented, that is, the phenomenon of air flow short circuit caused by the reverse blowing of the air conditioner is avoided, and the temperature change of the air flowing through the battery plug-in box from the air conditioner is ensured. When the fan is turned on, the air volume in the air duct of the energy storage system can be increased, and when the fan is turned off, the air blown by the air conditioner can flow through the battery plug-in box and the battery to detect the change of the air temperature.

[0054] On the basis of the above technical solution, the inner side wall of the primary air duct side plate 42 is provided with an air duct baffle 45, and the air duct baffle 45 is arranged in the primary air duct side plate 42 close to the primary air duct body 41.

[0055] By providing the air duct baffle 45 on the inner side wall of the primary air duct side plate 42 of the energy storage system, especially at the position close to the primary air duct body 41, that is, at the position close to the air inlet of the primary air duct side plate 42, the internal pressure of the primary air duct side plate 42 can be effectively improved. According to the principle of aerodynamics, the air volume is larger at the position far from the air outlet, and the air duct baffle arranged at the upper position can make the air volume at the multiple primary air duct outlets 44 arranged from top to bottom basically consistent, so as to realize the uniform heat dissipation effect of the multiple battery plug-in boxes 3 on the battery cluster frame 2 in the energy storage system, and improve the operation reliability of the energy storage system.

[0056] On the basis of the above technical scheme, the inside of the first air duct side plate 42 is fixedly provided with a vertical plate 46, and a plurality of transverse ventilation grooves 47 are formed in the vertical plate 46.

[0057] By arranging the vertical plate 46 and the transverse ventilation grooves 47 formed in the vertical plate 46 in the first air duct side plate 42, the air volume on the left and right sides of the vertical plate 46 in the first air duct side plate 42 can be more uniform in the case that the first air duct side plate 42 is wide or the corresponding battery cluster frame is more, so that the uniformity of the heat dissipation effect between the multiple rows of battery clusters is ensured, and the operation stability is improved.

[0058] The working process of the application is as follows:

[0059] When the battery plug-in boxes in the energy storage system are in the charging and discharging state, the first air duct structure and the second air duct structure are opened, the fan 7 in the first air duct main body 41 is opened, and the air conditioner is in refrigeration operation at the same time, at this time, the air duct one-way plate 8 is blown open by the fan 7, and the air in the air duct is circulated and operated by the air conditioner and the fan 7 together. According to the heat dissipation air volume required by the different rates of the charging and discharging work of the battery plug-in boxes, the number of fans opened can be selected to meet different heat dissipation requirements, so that the heat dissipation effect is good and the applicability is stronger.

[0060] When the battery plug-in boxes in the energy storage system are not in the charging and discharging state, the first air duct structure and the second air duct structure are opened, the fan 7 in the first air duct main body 41 is closed, and the air conditioner is only in ventilation operation without refrigeration action, at this time, the air in the air duct is only circulated and operated by the air conditioner; in the closed state of the fan 7, the air duct one-way plate 8 is in a vertically downward state under the action of gravity, and since the air blown by the air conditioner has a certain pressure, the air duct one-way plate 8 will generate an outward force, but since the limiting plate 9 blocks the bottom end, the air duct one-way plate 8 can only be limited to be vertical, so that the air blown by the air conditioner cannot be blown back through the fan 7 in the opposite direction, so that the phenomenon of air flow short circuit will not occur, which ensures that the air entering the air conditioner inlet 62 flows through the battery plug-in box, and ensures that the air conditioner can monitor the temperature change in the battery plug-in box.

[0061] On the basis of the above technical scheme, the inside of the first air duct side plate 42 is fixedly provided with a vertical plate 46, and a plurality of transverse ventilation grooves 47 are formed in the vertical plate 46.

[0062] By arranging the vertical plate 46 and the transverse ventilation grooves 47 formed in the vertical plate 46 in the first air duct side plate 42, the air volume on the left and right sides of the vertical plate 46 in the first air duct side plate 42 can be more uniform in the case that the first air duct side plate 42 is wide or the corresponding battery cluster frame is more, so that the uniformity of the heat dissipation effect between the multiple rows of battery clusters is ensured, and the operation stability is improved.

[0063] The application realizes good heat dissipation effect, meets the ventilation and heat dissipation requirements of the overall energy storage system under various working conditions such as the state of not charging and discharging, the state of charging and discharging, and the state of different rate charging and discharging, greatly reduces the number of fans used, reduces power consumption and cost, is more energy-saving, and also reduces the failure probability of the equipment, and has excellent practical performance in actual application.

[0064] The air conditioner assembly can be obtained from the prior art, cold air is sent into the air duct structure through the air outlet of the air conditioner, and the heat after circulation is collected through the air inlet of the air conditioner and blown out from the air outlet of the air conditioner after being re-cooled. It should be noted that the above-mentioned first end and the last end are defined according to the direction of air flow; the back side of the battery cluster frame is defined according to the direction of placing the battery insertion box on the battery cluster frame, that is, the back side of the battery cluster frame corresponds to the back of the battery insertion box, which is opposite to the end of the battery insertion box, which is only for the convenience of description and understanding of the technical solution, and does not constitute a limitation on the present application.
