Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of cooling electronic equipment, and in particular to a fully immersed power battery integrated equipment for an electric bicycle and an application of the equipment on the electric bicycle. Background Art

[0002] With the strong support for the new energy industry, electric bicycles have become popular in almost every household and are closely related to people's lifestyles. However, while people enjoy the convenience brought by electric bicycles, the safety accidents they cause have gradually become a pain point of concern for the industry.

[0003] When charging and discharging, electric bicycles generate a lot of heat, which causes the battery temperature to rise. When the heat accumulates to a certain level, it is easy to trigger thermal runaway of the battery, and in severe cases, it will cause the electric bicycle to spontaneously combust. At present, there is no technology and equipment in China that can effectively suppress thermal runaway fires of electric bicycle batteries, resulting in the battery heat dissipation and fire safety issues of electric bicycles not being effectively resolved. Summary of the invention

[0004] The present invention aims to solve at least one of the technical problems in the related art to a certain extent. To this end, the present invention provides a fully submerged power battery integrated device for electric bicycles and its application in electric bicycles. The fully submerged power battery integrated device provided by the present application can effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, thereby solving the problem that the electric bicycle cannot effectively avoid the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery is in thermal runaway.

[0005] In the first aspect of the present invention, the present invention proposes a fully immersed power battery integrated equipment for electric bicycles. According to an embodiment of the present invention, the fully immersed power battery integrated equipment for electric bicycles includes: a box body and a battery cell, the box body has a containing space for containing a coolant, wherein the coolant includes at least one of a halogenated hydrocarbon and an insulating medium, and the battery cell is immersed in the coolant.

[0006] According to the fully immersed power battery integrated equipment of the above embodiment of the present invention, by placing the battery cell in the accommodation space of the box body, and injecting the fully immersed coolant into the accommodation space, the fully immersed equipment integration for the fire safety of the power battery of the electric bicycle is realized, wherein the coolant includes at least one of halogenated hydrocarbons and insulating media, and has high flame retardancy and thermal conductivity. When the heat generated by the battery cell during operation can be absorbed and transferred to the external environment by the fully immersed coolant filled in the accommodation space of the box body, when the highly flame-retardant fully immersed coolant faces the rapidly accumulated heat that can cause the battery fire, it can still rely on its own flame retardancy to prevent the occurrence and spread of the battery thermal runaway fire, thereby ensuring the fire safety of the power battery of the electric bicycle. Further, the highly flame-retardant fully immersed coolant can not only play the role of heat dissipation and flame retardancy in time, but also can be used as an insulation layer between the battery cell and the external environment when operating under low temperature conditions, which greatly alleviates the mileage anxiety of the battery cell caused by the low ambient temperature, and enhances the battery's endurance in the external low temperature environment to a certain extent. Therefore, the fully immersed power battery integrated equipment provided by the present application can effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, thereby solving the problem that electric bicycles cannot effectively prevent the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery suffers thermal runaway.

[0024] A fully immersed power battery integrated device 100 for an electric bicycle comprises a box body 10 , a containing space 11 , a connection port 12 , a lead 121 , a liquid injection port 13 , a fixing member 14 , a flow channel gap 15 , and a battery cell 20 . DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0025] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0026] In a first aspect of the present invention, the present invention provides a fully submerged power battery integrated device 100 for an electric bicycle. Figure 1-3 According to an embodiment of the present invention, the fully immersed power battery integrated equipment 100 for an electric bicycle includes: a box body 10 and a battery cell 20, the box body 10 has a containing space 11 for containing a coolant, wherein the coolant includes at least one of a halogenated hydrocarbon and an insulating medium, and the battery cell 20 is immersed in the coolant.

[0027] According to the fully immersed power battery integrated equipment 100 of the above embodiment of the present invention, by placing the battery cell 20 in the accommodating space 11 of the box body 10 and injecting fully immersed coolant into the accommodating space 11, fully immersed equipment integration for the fire safety of the electric bicycle power battery is realized, wherein the coolant includes at least one of a halogenated hydrocarbon and an insulating medium, and has high flame retardancy and thermal conductivity. When the heat generated by the battery cell 20 during operation can be absorbed by the fully immersed coolant filled in the accommodating space 11 of the box body 10 and transferred to the external environment, when the highly flame retardant fully immersed coolant faces rapidly accumulated heat that can cause a battery fire, it can still rely on its own flame retardancy to prevent the occurrence and spread of a battery thermal runaway fire, thereby ensuring the fire safety of the electric bicycle power battery. Furthermore, the highly flame-retardant fully immersed coolant can not only timely achieve the effects of heat dissipation and flame retardancy, but also can be used as an insulation layer between the battery cell 20 and the external environment when operating under low temperature conditions, greatly alleviating the mileage anxiety of the battery cell 20 caused by the low ambient temperature, and to a certain extent enhancing the battery's endurance in the external low temperature environment. Therefore, the fully immersed power battery integrated equipment 100 provided by the present application can effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, and thus can solve the problem that the electric bicycle cannot effectively prevent the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery is thermally runaway.

[0028] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the halogenated hydrocarbon comprises C n H m X p , 1≤n≤4, 0≤m≤4, 2≤p≤6, X includes one of Cl, Br and I. For example, n can be 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.; m can be 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, etc.; p can be 2, 4, 5, 6, etc. The halogen atoms (Cl, Br and I) in halogenated hydrocarbons have strong electronegativity, which can capture free radicals during the combustion process, interrupt the chain reaction of combustion, and thus inhibit the spread of flames. The molecular structure of 1≤n≤4, 0≤m≤4, 2≤p≤6 may make halogenated hydrocarbons have good stability at high temperatures, not easy to decompose or burn, and help improve the flame retardant properties of the coolant. As a result, the flame retardant properties of the coolant can be improved, and then the safety performance of the battery can be effectively improved, solving the problem that electric bicycles cannot effectively avoid the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery has thermal runaway.

[0029] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the insulating medium includes at least one of insulating oil, fluorinated liquid, synthetic ester and chlorinated paraffin. The above-mentioned insulating medium includes both low-flash point mineral oil, which can achieve the purpose of flame retardancy by increasing the amount of halogenated hydrocarbons added when mixed with halogenated hydrocarbons; it also includes high-ignition point oil (such as silicone oil, vegetable oil, synthetic ester, etc.), which is not easy to burn, thereby improving the flame retardant properties of the coolant; it also includes non-combustible insulating medium (such as fluorinated liquid), which can remain stable at high temperatures, is not easy to decompose or burn, and can improve the flame retardant properties of the coolant, and further improve the flame retardant safety. Therefore, the selection of the above-mentioned insulating medium can improve the flame retardant properties of the coolant, and can effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, and solve the problem that the electric bicycle cannot effectively avoid the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery is thermally runaway.

[0030] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the insulating oil includes at least one of mineral oil, silicone oil and vegetable oil. Mineral oil, silicone oil and vegetable oil usually have good thermal stability, are not easy to decompose or burn at high temperatures, and can reduce the risk of fire. When the battery is heated, the insulating oil can absorb part of the heat, reduce the temperature of the battery, and reduce the possibility of thermal runaway. Therefore, the use of the above-mentioned insulating oil can improve the flame retardant properties of the coolant, and then effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, solving the problem that the electric bicycle cannot effectively prevent the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery is in thermal runaway.

[0031] As an example, mineral oil includes but is not limited to No. 10 transformer insulation cooling oil, No. 25 transformer insulation cooling oil, No. 45 transformer insulation cooling oil, etc. Silicone oil includes but is not limited to methyl silicone oil, ethyl silicone oil and functionalized silicone oils thereof, such as dimethyl silicone oil, diethyl silicone oil, benzyl silicone oil, amino methyl silicone oil, etc. Vegetable oil includes but is not limited to soybean oil, corn oil, peanut oil, etc.

[0032] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the fluorinated liquid includes at least one of a perfluorinated compound and a hydrofluoroether. The fluorinated liquid has low surface energy and can form a uniform protective film on the surface of the battery to isolate oxygen and heat, thereby slowing down the rate of combustion. Among them, perfluorinated compounds and hydrofluoroethers usually have high chemical stability, are not easy to burn, and can remain stable in a high temperature environment. The above-mentioned fluorinated liquid has good heat absorption capacity, can absorb the heat generated by the battery, reduce the battery temperature, and reduce the risk of thermal runaway. Therefore, the use of the above-mentioned fluorinated liquid can improve the flame retardant properties of the coolant, and then can effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, solving the problem that the electric bicycle cannot effectively prevent the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery is in thermal runaway.

[0033] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the synthetic ester includes at least one of phosphate ester, fatty acid ester and polyester. Phosphorus ester contains phosphorus element, which can form substances such as phosphoric acid or polyphosphoric acid during combustion, which can promote carbonization and form a heat-insulating and oxygen-isolating carbon layer on the surface of the material, thereby preventing the spread of flames and playing a flame retardant role; fatty acid ester has a high flash point and autoignition point, making it difficult to burn. In addition, fatty acid ester may also decompose to produce some non-combustible gases during combustion, diluting the concentration of combustible gases, thereby slowing down the combustion rate; the molecular structure of polyester enables it to form a cross-linked structure during combustion, increasing the stability of the material and reducing the occurrence of combustion. At the same time, polyester also has a certain heat absorption capacity, which can reduce the temperature of the material and reduce the risk of thermal runaway. Therefore, the selection of the above-mentioned synthetic ester can improve the flame retardant properties of the coolant, and then effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, solving the problem that the electric bicycle cannot effectively avoid the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery is in thermal runaway.

[0034] As examples, the synthetic esters include, but are not limited to, methyl oleate, diethylhexyl carbonate, triethylhexanoin, trioctyl phosphate, trimethyl phosphate, triethyl phosphate, tributyl phosphate, and the like.

[0035] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the chlorinated paraffin includes one of chlorinated paraffin 42 and chlorinated paraffin 52. The above-mentioned chlorinated paraffin will decompose and produce hydrogen chloride gas when heated. The hydrogen chloride gas can absorb heat, reduce the flame temperature, and thus slow down the combustion speed. The hydrogen chloride gas produced by the decomposition can also dilute the concentration of the combustible gas, making it difficult to maintain combustion; the chlorinated paraffin can also form a covering layer on the surface of the combustion object, isolating the contact between oxygen and the combustion object, and preventing further combustion. Therefore, the use of the above-mentioned chlorinated paraffin can improve the flame retardant properties of the coolant, and then can effectively improve the safety performance of the battery, and solve the problem that the electric bicycle cannot effectively prevent the occurrence and spread of fire when the battery is thermally runaway.

[0036] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the box body 10 includes a connection port 12 and a liquid injection port 13, wherein the connection port 12 is provided on the box body 10 for charging or discharging the battery cell 20, and the liquid injection port 13 is provided on the box body 10 for injecting the coolant into the accommodating space 11. The setting of the connection port 12 can conveniently charge or discharge the battery cell 20, ensuring the normal use of the electric bicycle. The setting of the liquid injection port 13 makes it more convenient to inject coolant into the accommodating space 11, ensuring that the battery cell 20 can be completely immersed in the coolant. The injection of coolant can transfer heat in time when the battery falls into thermal runaway, and rely on the flame retardant characteristics to suppress the occurrence and further spread of fire, effectively improving the safety of the battery. Therefore, a reasonable design of the box body 10, including the setting of the connection port 12 and the liquid injection port 13, helps to ensure the normal operation of the entire fully immersed integrated equipment and extend the service life of the battery.

[0037] It should be noted that there is no particular limitation on the connection method between the connection port 12 and the battery cell 20 , and the battery cell 20 and the connection port 12 may be connected via a wire 121 .

[0038] According to some embodiments of the present invention, the box 10 further includes a fixing member 14, which is disposed in the accommodating space 11 and is used to fix the battery cell 20. The setting of the fixing member 14 can effectively fix the battery cell 20, prevent the battery cell 20 from shaking or shifting inside the box 10, and ensure the stability of the battery cell 20. Fixing the battery cell 20 can reduce the vibration and impact to the battery cell 20 during use, reduce the risk of damage to the battery cell 20, and extend the service life of the battery cell 20. The stable fixing method of the battery cell 20 can reduce problems such as poor contact or short circuit between the battery cells 20, improve the safety of battery use, and reduce the probability of safety accidents such as fire.

[0039] It should be noted that there is no special limitation on the structure of the fixing member 14 , and it may be a slot structure or a bracket structure, and those skilled in the art may flexibly select the structure according to their needs.

[0040] According to a specific embodiment of the present application, the fixing member 14 is a card slot structure, which is provided on the upper bottom surface and the lower bottom surface of the accommodating space 11. The card slot is adapted to the shape and number of the battery cell 20, and the battery cell 20 can be inserted therein, thereby achieving a fixing effect, and can effectively limit the movement of the battery cell 20, so that it remains stable inside the box 10. There is no special limitation on the number of battery cells 20 and the number of card slots, and technicians in this field can flexibly select according to needs. When a plurality of card slots are provided in the accommodating space 11, the space spacing between adjacent card slots can form a flow channel gap 15, which can provide storage space for full immersion of the coolant, increase the contact area between the battery cell 20 and the highly flame-retardant immersion coolant, and thus improve the efficiency of heat dissipation and flame retardancy.

[0041] It should be noted that the battery cell 20 is usually composed of a positive electrode sheet, a negative electrode sheet, an electrolyte and a separator. There is no special limitation on the shape of the battery cell 20. The shape of the battery cell 20 includes but is not limited to cylindrical, square and soft-pack, etc. Technicians in this field can flexibly select according to needs.

[0042] The fully immersed power battery integrated equipment 100 for electric bicycles provided in the present application has excellent heat dissipation, flame retardancy and low-temperature battery efficiency enhancement characteristics, which can, to a certain extent, ensure that the electric bicycle will not fail or even catch fire due to heating of the battery pack, and solve the current problem that electric bicycles cannot effectively prevent the occurrence and spread of fire when the power battery has thermal runaway. It is a very potential equipment solution in the field of electric bicycles and can be widely used in the electric bicycle industry or in products using high-power battery packs.
