[0085] In order to better understand the technical solution of the present application, the embodiments of the present application are described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0086] It should be clear that the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0087] The terms used in the embodiments of the present application are only for the purpose of describing specific embodiments, and are not intended to limit the present application. The singular forms "a", "said" and "the" used in the embodiments of the present application and the appended claims are also intended to include plural forms, unless the context clearly indicates other meanings.
[0088] It should be understood that the term "and / or" used in this article is only a description of the association relationship of associated objects, indicating that there can be three relationships. For example, A and / or B can represent: A exists alone, A and B exist at the same time, and B exists alone. In addition, the character " / " in this article generally indicates that the associated objects before and after are in an "or" relationship.
[0089] Photovoltaic energy storage can convert solar energy into electrical energy for storage. Energy storage containers are one of the important devices for photovoltaic energy storage. Their function is to store the electrical energy collected by photovoltaic panels. Energy storage containers are usually equipped with a power conversion system 30 (PCS) and a high-voltage box 20. The energy storage converter 30 is a device for storing electrical energy and can convert direct current into alternating current to provide electrical energy for external devices. The high-voltage box 20 is used to control the connection or disconnection of the system's main electrical circuit to ensure the safe operation of the battery energy storage system.
[0090] Usually, the high-voltage box 20 is an independent cabinet and is placed alone inside the container. With the development of technology, it has become a trend to integrate the energy storage inverter 30 inside the container. Since the space inside the container is limited, integrating the energy storage inverter 30 inside the container will compress the assembly space of the high-voltage box 20. Therefore, new requirements are put forward for the structure of the high-voltage box 20.
[0091] An embodiment of the present application provides an energy storage system, which may include an energy storage cabinet 10 , a high-voltage box 20 , and an energy storage converter 30 , wherein the high-voltage box 20 and the energy storage converter 30 are installed in the energy storage cabinet 10 .
[0092] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application provides a high-voltage box 20, which includes a box body 1, electronic components 2, a first mounting bracket 5 and at least two circuit breakers 3. The box body 1 is provided with a receiving chamber 11, and the receiving chamber 11 is used to receive the first mounting bracket 5, the circuit breaker 3 and the electronic components 2. The circuit breaker 3 is mounted on the first mounting bracket 5, and is installed on the high-voltage box 20 together with the first mounting bracket 5, or is removed from the high-voltage box 20 with the first mounting bracket 5. The circuit breaker 3 is electrically connected to the electronic component 2 through a connector 4, and is used to control the connection or disconnection of the overall circuit of the energy storage system. Figure 3 As shown, the first mounting bracket 5 includes a first main body 51 and a second main body 52, which are connected to each other and have an angle, and the first main body 51 and the second main body 52 can be arranged in an "L" shape. The first main body 51 is connected to the box 1, and the circuit breaker 3 is installed on the first mounting bracket 5 through the second main body 52.
[0093] When assembling the high-voltage box 20 , the circuit breaker 3 can be first installed on the first mounting bracket 5 outside the high-voltage box 20 , so that the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5 form a mounting module, and then the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5 are installed as a whole in the high-voltage box 20 .
[0094] When the volume of the high-voltage box 20 is reduced, the space inside the high-voltage box 20 will also be relatively reduced. When the circuit breaker 3 is directly installed in the high-voltage box 20, due to limited space, it is difficult to install the circuit breaker 3, resulting in reduced assembly efficiency. Compared with the solution of directly installing the circuit breaker 3 on the box body 1 of the high-voltage box 20, installing the circuit breaker 3 outside the high-voltage box 20 can help increase the operating space and facilitate the operation of the operator.
[0095] The high-voltage box 20 provided in the embodiment of the present application includes at least two circuit breakers 3, each circuit breaker 3 is used to control an energy storage converter 30, and each circuit breaker 3 is sequentially installed on the second main body 52 of the first mounting bracket 5 along the thickness direction of the high-voltage box 20.
[0096] In the scheme provided by the embodiment of the present application, by sequentially arranging the circuit breakers 3 along the height direction of the high-voltage box 20, the space utilization rate of the high-voltage box 20 in the height direction can be improved, thereby improving the integration of the high-voltage box 20 and making the overall structure of the high-voltage box 20 more compact, which can be beneficial to reducing the overall volume of the high-voltage box 20. Due to the reduction in the volume of the high-voltage box 20, the space inside the high-voltage box 20 is limited, and the operating space left for the operator when installing the circuit breaker 3 is small. When multiple circuit breakers 3 are installed, the installation is difficult or even impossible due to insufficient operating space. By adopting the scheme provided by the embodiment of the present application, each circuit breaker 3 can be installed on the first mounting bracket 5 outside the high-voltage box 20 in advance, so that the operator has enough space to install the circuit breaker 3 to reduce the difficulty of operation. After the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5 are installed, the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5 are installed as a whole inside the high-voltage box 20. By modularizing the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5, the utilization rate of the space of the high-voltage box 20 can be improved and the installation difficulty can be reduced.
[0097] like Figure 2 As shown, in a possible embodiment, one end of the connecting member 4 is connected to the circuit breaker 3, and the other end is connected to the electronic component 2. The high-voltage box 20 also includes at least one supporting member 6, one end of the supporting member 6 is connected to the connecting member 4, and the other end is connected to the first mounting bracket 5.
[0098] The supporting member 6 can be provided to support the connecting member 4, thereby reducing the possibility of deformation of the connecting member 4 during use.
[0099] like Figure 3 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in a possible implementation, the box body 1 is provided with a clamping portion 12 , and the first mounting bracket 5 is provided with a first matching portion 511 , and the clamping portion 12 is used to cooperate with the first matching portion 511 to limit the relative position of the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1 .
[0100] Connecting the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1 by means of a snap-fitting method can help reduce the difficulty of operation, thereby reducing the demand for operating space, and the snap-fitting method can also facilitate disassembly. When the circuit breaker 3 needs to be removed from the high-voltage box 20, the snap-fitting between the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1 can be released, and the operation is relatively convenient and quick.
[0101] like Figure 5 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the clamping portion 12 is disposed on the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 11 and protrudes away from the bottom wall. An angle is formed between the clamping portion 12 and the bottom wall, and the angle is an acute angle. The space between the clamping portion 12 and the bottom wall of the accommodating cavity 11 can be used to form a clamping space, and at least a portion of the first matching portion 511 can extend into the clamping space for clamping.
[0102] Such a design can facilitate the connection between the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1. The first limiting portion extends into the snap-in space and can limit the first matching portion 511 through the snap-in portion 12, thereby limiting the position of the first mounting bracket 5, which is beneficial to improve the installation position accuracy of the first mounting bracket 5 and better meet actual usage requirements.
[0103] like Figure 3 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the first matching portion 511 is provided with at least one matching groove 511 a , and when the clamping portion 12 is matched with the first matching portion 511 , at least a portion of the clamping portion 12 is located in the matching groove 511 a .
[0104] By providing the matching groove 511a, the matching of the clamping portion 12 and the matching groove 511a can form a clamping connection, which can further improve the connection stability between the clamping portion 12 and the first mounting bracket 5. By making the first matching portion 511 extend into the clamping space, the first mounting bracket 5 can be limited in the height direction of the high-voltage box 20. By making the clamping portion 12 extend into the matching groove 511a, it can be used to limit the shaking of the clamping portion 12 and the first mounting bracket 5, which is conducive to improving the stability of the connection between the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5 and the high-voltage box 20, and reducing the possibility of shaking during transportation and use, causing the circuit breaker 3 to be out of the preset position, and causing the high-voltage box 20 to fail.
[0105] like Figure 5 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the clamping portion 12 is fixedly connected to the box body 1 .
[0106] The clamping portion 12 may be an independent component relative to the box body 1, and may be fixedly mounted on the box body 1 by welding, bonding, threaded connection, etc. Such a design allows the position and quantity of the clamping portion 12 to be adjusted according to actual usage requirements during use, making the configuration of the high-voltage box 20 more flexible, and facilitating the improvement of the space utilization of the high-voltage box 20.
[0107] In a possible implementation, the clamping portion 12 may be integrally formed with the box body 1 .
[0108] By adopting the one-piece molding method, the steps of assembling the high-voltage box 20 can be reduced. The one-piece molded clamping portion 12 has better integrity and is suitable for mass production. Since the standardized design of the high-voltage box 20 is achieved, the versatility of the high-voltage box 20 is improved.
[0109] like Figure 3 As shown, in a possible embodiment, the first main body portion 51 is provided with at least one second matching portion 512, and the second matching portion 512 can be connected to the high-voltage box 20 by means of mounting parts such as screws and bolts, and the first matching portion 511 and the second matching portion 512 are located at opposite ends of the first main body portion 51 along the length direction of the first main body portion 51.
[0110] The second matching portion 512 can be provided to increase the contact area between the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1, thereby improving the stability of the connection. The first matching portion 511 and the second matching portion 512 are located on different sides of the first main body 51, and the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1 can be connected from different positions during installation, thereby improving the stability of the installation of the first mounting bracket 5 and reducing the possibility of shaking of the first mounting bracket 5 during transportation and use.
[0111] like Figure 3 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the first main body portion 51 is provided with a through hole 513 , and the through hole 513 penetrates the first main body portion 51 along the thickness direction of the high-voltage box 20 .
[0112] By providing a through hole 513 in the first main body 51, the wiring harness can be avoided. During the assembly process, the wiring harness can pass through the through hole 513. At the same time, the through hole 513 also has a weight-reducing effect, which is beneficial to reduce the weight of the first mounting bracket 5 and further reduce the overall mass of the high-voltage box 20.
[0113] like Figure 3 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the second main body 52 is provided with a first mounting hole 521 , and the circuit breaker 3 is mounted on the first mounting bracket 5 through the first mounting hole 521 .
[0114] The first mounting hole 521 can be provided to facilitate connection between the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5 .
[0115] like Figure 6 As shown, in a possible implementation manner, at least one support member 6 is connected to a side of the second body portion 52 away from the circuit breaker 3 .
[0116] One end of the support member 6 is connected to the connecting member 4 , and the other end is connected to the first mounting bracket 5 . Such a design can provide support for the connecting member 4 .
[0117] Compared with the solution of directly installing the circuit breaker 3 on the high-voltage box 20, since the first mounting bracket 5 is not provided, when the size of the connector 4 is large and the connector 4 needs to be supported, the connector 4 can only be arranged along the inner wall of the high-voltage box 20, and a supporting structure is provided on the inner wall of the high-voltage box 20. This method causes the connector 4 to usually only be a linear structure, so the relative position of the circuit breaker 3 and the electronic component 2 electrically connected to the circuit breaker 3 is affected by the supporting structure, and the electronic component 2 can only be located on the side where the outlet terminal of the circuit breaker 3 is located, resulting in the overall layout of the high-voltage box 20 being restricted, which is not conducive to optimizing the internal structure of the high-voltage box 20, resulting in an increase in the volume of the high-voltage box 20. Moreover, since the support member 6 is provided on the inner wall of the box body 1, it is necessary to operate inside the box body 1 during installation, and the space inside the box body 1 is limited, resulting in increased connection difficulty and affecting assembly efficiency.
[0118] In the solution provided in the embodiment of the present application, by setting a first mounting bracket 5, a support member 6 can be set on the first mounting bracket 5. Therefore, the position of the electronic component 2 can be adjusted according to the layout requirements of the high-voltage box 20, and the connector 4 can be set as a special-shaped connector 4, that is, the connector 4 may not be a linear structure, the connector 4 may include one or more bending sections, and the connector 4 is supported by the support member 6, so that the electronic component 2 can be arranged on the side of the second main body 52 away from the circuit breaker 3, that is, the electronic component 2 may not be limited to the side where the output terminal of the circuit breaker 3 is located.
[0119] At the same time, during the assembly of the high-voltage box 20, the connector 4 can be electrically connected to the circuit breaker 3 and connected to the support 6 in advance. In this way, it is only necessary to connect the connector 4 and the electronic component 2 inside the high-voltage box 20, which can reduce the number of operating steps inside the high-voltage box 20, thereby helping to reduce the difficulty of assembly and improve assembly efficiency.
[0120] like Figure 6 As shown, in a possible implementation, the first mounting bracket 5 is provided with a flange 53 , an angle is formed between the flange 53 and the first main body portion 51 and / or the second main body portion 52 , and at least one support member 6 is connected to the flange 53 .
[0121] By providing the flanging 53, the first main body portion 51 and the second main body portion 52 can be strengthened, thereby improving the structural strength of the first mounting bracket 5 and better meeting the actual usage requirements. Moreover, by providing the flanging 53, the area of the first mounting bracket 5 can be increased, and the support member 6 can be connected to the flanging 53, thereby enhancing the flexibility of the setting of the support member 6, so as to enhance the flexibility of the setting of the connecting member 4. The support member 6 can be connected to one or more of the box body 1, the second main body portion 52, and the flanging 53 according to actual requirements, which is beneficial to optimizing the internal structure of the high-voltage box 20, thereby reducing the volume of the high-voltage box 20.
[0122] In a possible implementation manner, the support member 6 can be mounted on the first mounting bracket 5 by means of welding, bonding, threaded connection, etc. A second mounting hole can be provided on the side of the second main body portion 52 away from the circuit breaker 3 and / or a third mounting hole 531 can be provided on the flanging 53. Mounting the support member 6 through the mounting hole can improve the positioning accuracy of the support member 6 during installation and increase the contact area between the first mounting bracket 5 and the support member 6, thereby being beneficial to enhancing the connection stability of the support member 6 and better meeting the actual usage requirements.
[0123] As Figure 6 shown, in a possible implementation manner, the first mounting bracket 5 may further include a third main body portion 54. The third main body portion 54 is located on the side of the second main body portion 52 away from the first main body portion 51, that is, the first main body portion 51 and the third main body portion 54 are located on opposite sides of the second main body portion 52. The first main body portion 51, the second main body portion 52, and the third main body portion 54 can be used to enclose a vertically placed "U" - shaped structure, and the opening of the "U" - shaped structure faces the side wall of the box body 1. One end of the third main body portion 54 is connected to the second main body portion 52, and the other end is connected to the box body 1.
[0124] The third main body portion 54 can be connected to the second main body portion 52 and the box body 1 by means of threaded connection, etc., for increasing the contact area and connection points between the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1, thereby enhancing the connection stability between the first mounting bracket 5 and the box body 1. Along the thickness direction of the high - voltage box 20, the lower side of the first mounting bracket 5 is connected to the box body 1 through the first fitting portion 511 and the second fitting portion 512, and the upper part of the first mounting bracket 5 is connected to the box body 1 through the third main body portion 54, which can be beneficial to reducing the possibility of the first mounting bracket 5 shaking during transportation and use, thereby being beneficial to enhancing the installation stability of the circuit breaker 3 and better meeting the actual usage requirements.

The second body portion 72 and the third body portion 73 are used to enclose an accommodation space, and the circuit breaker 3 is disposed in the corresponding accommodation space.
[0126] The first insulating member 7 can be in a "U" shape structure, covering and disposed outside the circuit breaker 3 for insulation, reducing the possibility of contact between adjacent circuit breakers 3, thereby enhancing the working stability and safety of the high-voltage box 20.
[0127] As Figure 8 shown, in a possible implementation, the first insulating member 7 may further include an avoidance groove 74 for avoiding the connection position between the circuit breaker 3 and the first mounting bracket 5.

[0130] The insulating paper has good insulation performance and high strength, can withstand the pressure of the high-voltage electric field and mechanical stress, and can be used to ensure the normal operation of the high-voltage box 20. At the same time, the insulating paper also has good heat resistance and cold resistance, and can adapt to different environments when the high-voltage box 20 is applied outdoors, which better meets the actual usage requirements.

[0134] When the connecting member 4 is integrally formed, the overall shape is better, and it has better strength and precision.
[0135] When the connector 4 is a segmented structure, the structure of the connector 4 is more flexible, and transition sections 43 of different structures can be pre-processed. During assembly, a suitable transition section 43 can be selected for assembly according to actual needs.

In the width direction of the second main body 52, the first connection section 41 and the second connection section 42 can extend beyond the range of the second main body 52, that is, along the thickness direction of the second main body 52, the second main body 52 may not be provided in a partial area between the first connection section 41 and the second connection section 42.

[0138] The arc extinguishing member 8 is used to make the arc contact with a solid to reduce the arc temperature, thereby accelerating the arc extinguishing, thereby improving safety and extending the service life of the high-voltage box 20. The second insulating member 9 is located between the first connecting member 44 and the second connecting member 45 and is used to insulate the first connecting member 44 and the second connecting member 45, reducing the possibility of electrical connection between the first connecting member 44 and the second connecting member 45 causing a short circuit, thereby improving the safety and stability of the high-voltage box 20.

[0142] During installation, the arc extinguishing member 8 can be slidably matched with the installation groove 31 through the third matching portion 81, driving the arc extinguishing member 8 to move to a predetermined position along the installation groove 31. Such a design can improve the stability of the connection between the arc extinguishing member 8 and the third matching portion 81, and at the same time, the operation difficulty is low, which is more in line with actual use requirements.
[0143] like Figure 6As shown, in a possible implementation manner, the high-voltage box 20 further includes a stopper 55 connected to the second main body 52.

Along the installation direction of the arc extinguishing member 8, the stopper 55 can be located on the side of the arc extinguishing member 8 away from the circuit breaker 3, and the stopper 55 can abut against the arc extinguishing member 8 to limit the arc extinguishing member 8 from moving in a direction opposite to the installation direction, thereby limiting the arc extinguishing member 8 from being separated from the circuit breaker 3.
[0144] By setting the block 55, the arc extinguishing member 8 can be limited, thereby improving the stability of the installation of the arc extinguishing member 8 and reducing the possibility of the arc extinguishing member 8 detaching from the circuit breaker 3, which is beneficial to improving the safety and stability of the high-voltage box 20 and better meets actual usage requirements.
