Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of power battery heat dissipation, and in particular to an adaptive power battery heat pipe heat dissipation device. Background Art
[0002] The power battery heat pipe cooling device is a device used to dissipate heat from the power battery. It conducts the heat generated in the power battery to the radiator through a heat pipe, and then dissipates the heat into the air to keep the operating temperature of the battery within an appropriate range.
[0003] A heat pipe is a heat transfer element that uses liquid to transfer heat in a pipe. It transfers heat through the vaporization and condensation of liquid inside the pipe, and has the advantages of efficient heat transfer, energy saving, and environmental protection. In power batteries, heat pipes can effectively transfer the heat generated by the battery to the radiator, improve heat dissipation efficiency, and avoid safety hazards caused by overheating of the battery.
[0004] For example, the Chinese patent with publication number CN110635198A discloses that the present invention relates to the field of thermal management technology of power batteries, and provides a heat dissipation device for power batteries, which includes: a plurality of fin assemblies arranged at intervals and a plurality of heat pipe assemblies arranged at intervals; a plurality of battery units arranged in an array in coordination with the heat pipe assemblies are arranged between the bottoms of adjacent heat pipe assemblies, and a fin assembly is arranged between the tops of adjacent heat pipe assemblies.

[0042] The following is combined with Figure 1-Figure 14 This application is described in further detail.
[0043] The embodiment of the present application discloses an adaptive power battery heat pipe cooling device; it is mainly used in the process of heat dissipation of power batteries.
[0044] In the prior art, battery heat dissipation is achieved to effectively solve the problems of uneven battery temperature distribution and local overheating. However, power batteries need to be used for a long time. In summer, the power batteries can effectively dissipate heat. However, when winter comes and the weather outside is cold, the heat of the power batteries is discharged, causing the power batteries to be affected by the winter temperature and their performance to decline. Therefore, the prior art cannot achieve adaptive adjustment of the battery heat dissipation performance, which results in the heat inside the battery being unable to maintain itself in a suitable environment to work in winter, resulting in poor working efficiency of the power battery.
[0045] Furthermore, in the prior art, the thermal conductivity of the heat pipe 5 for heat dissipation of the battery is constant, and the thermal conductivity of the heat pipe 5 cannot be adjusted, resulting in the thermal conductivity of the heat pipe 5 being relatively simple and unable to adjust its thermal conductivity.
[0046] Embodiment 1: Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the main structure of the heat pipe 5 heat dissipation device in the present application; an adaptive power battery heat pipe heat dissipation device includes a battery housing 1 and battery cells 10 arranged at equal intervals inside the battery housing 1.
[0047] The main function of a power battery is to store and release electrical energy, providing a power source for electric vehicles. It converts the stored chemical energy into electrical energy through chemical reactions to drive the vehicle. The battery cell 10 is the basic unit of the power battery, responsible for storing and releasing electrical energy. The battery cell consists of a positive electrode, a negative electrode, an electrolyte and a diaphragm, and achieves efficient use of energy through the charging and discharging process. High-quality battery cells can provide higher energy density, extend the driving range, reduce battery aging and performance degradation, and reduce replacement frequency and usage costs.
[0048] The battery casing 1 is mainly used for the safety of the battery cell 10 to ensure the safety of the battery cell 10 .
[0049] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the structure of the heat sink 3 in the present application; four groups of positioning blocks 2 are arranged at equal intervals, and heat sinks 3 are respectively provided between the four groups of positioning blocks 2. The heat sinks 3 are attached to the outer wall of the battery cell 10, and a plurality of heat sink components 4 are also installed at equal intervals on one end of the heat sink 3 away from the battery cell 10.
[0050] The heat dissipation component 4 includes a plurality of heat pipes 5 distributed in a cone shape. The evaporation ends of the heat pipes 5 are gathered together and arranged on the heat dissipation plate 3. The condensation ends of the heat pipes 5 are away from the battery cells 10 and approach the battery casing 1 and abut against the battery casing 1.
[0051] See also Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of heat spreaders 9 are arranged between the battery cells 10 , and the heat spreaders 9 and the heat sink 3 are in contact with each other.
[0052] The positioning blocks 2 are arranged at the four corners of the battery housing 1, and the heat sinks 3 are arranged at equal intervals around the battery cells 10. When the battery is working, the battery will generate a large amount of heat energy, which will diffuse outward, and then the heat will be absorbed by the heat spreader 9, and then the heat will be transferred to the heat sink 3 through the heat spreader 9, so that the heat sink 3 absorbs the heat energy generated by the battery cells 10, and the heat energy is then received by the evaporation end of the heat pipe 5, and the heat quickly moves to the condensation end through the evaporation end of the heat pipe 5, and transfers the heat to the outside of the battery housing 1, ensuring the timely diffusion of heat, thereby controlling the temperature of the battery cells 10, and ensuring that the battery cells 10 can work in a suitable environment, thereby maintaining their optimal performance.
[0053] However, in order to ensure the stability of heat dissipation, the present application also needs to limit the heat dissipation plate 3 and the heat spreader 9 to ensure that the heat dissipation plate 3 and the heat spreader 9 can evenly contact the surface of the battery cell 10.
[0054] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, a right-angled movable groove 20 is provided in the positioning block 2, a plurality of fixed columns 21 are slidably provided in the movable groove 20, and a horizontal slide groove 22 for the fixed columns 21 to slide is provided in the movable groove 20, a plurality of vertically distributed mounting blocks 23 are slidably provided on the fixed columns 21, a mounting groove is provided on one side of the mounting block 23, and the heat sink 3 is hinged in the mounting slot of the mounting block 23.
[0055] A first adjusting tension spring 6 connected to both ends of the fixing column 21 is arranged in the horizontal slide groove 22 of the positioning block 2 .
[0056] The sliding sleeve on the fixing column 21 is provided with a second adjusting tension spring 7 for controlling the displacement of the heat sink 3 .
[0057] It should be noted that the heat sink 3 is rotatably disposed on the fixing column 21 , and the fixing column 21 can be slidably disposed in the movable groove 20 of the positioning block 2 .
[0058] A No. 2 adjusting tension spring 7 is arranged on the fixed column 21, and the No. 2 adjusting tension spring 7 is used to squeeze the heat sink 3 so that the heat sink 3 can be against the battery cell 10, ensuring that the heat of the battery cell 10 is quickly transferred to the heat sink 3 when the battery cell 10 is dissipating heat. In the initial state, the No. 2 adjusting tension spring 7 has an outward elastic force, so that the No. 2 adjusting tension spring 7 squeezes the heat sink 3.
[0059] The mounting block 23 is made of insulating material to prevent the battery cell 10 from leaking electricity when it is damaged.
[0060] The heat sink 3 is snap-fitted and installed inside the mounting block 23. The purpose is to facilitate the replacement of the heat sink 3. If the power battery is damaged during use, the damaged part of the power battery can be replaced, and the heat sink 3 at the corresponding part can be replaced separately, avoiding the overall replacement of all the heat sinks 3 in the power battery.
[0061] Through the cooperation of the heat sink 3 and the positioning block 2, the modular composition of the heat sink 3 is realized, which can not only ensure the heat dissipation performance of the power battery, but also can be modularly disassembled when the power battery is repaired or replaced. The entire heat dissipation device cannot be disassembled, which greatly improves the efficiency and economy of power battery maintenance.
[0062] See also Figure 7 , Figure 8 and Fig. 9As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the structure for adjusting the angle of the heat sink 3 in the present application. Specifically, as shown below, a telescopic center rod 24 is hinged between the two positioning blocks 2 on the length direction and on the same side of the battery casing 1, and a telescopic center rod 24 is also hinged between the two positioning blocks 2 on the width direction and on the same side of the battery casing 1. The middle part of the telescopic center rod 24 rotates and rests on the inner wall of the battery casing 1, and a telescopic motor 25 is installed on the positioning block 2 on one side, and the telescopic motor 25 is arranged on the inner wall of the battery casing 1.
[0063] During specific implementation, the telescopic motor 25 is started, and the telescopic motor 25 controls the positioning block 2 on one side of the inside of the battery casing 1 to move upward. At this time, the telescopic centering rod 24 on the positioning block 2 rotates around the center point of the middle, so that the two adjacent positioning blocks 2 near the positioning block 2 connected to the telescopic motor 25 move downward. At this time, the positioning block 2 diagonally opposite to the positioning block 2 connected to the telescopic motor 25 moves upward. At this time, the heat sink 3 between the positioning blocks 2 will tilt, and the two ends of the heat sink 3 are ensured to adjust the angle of the heat sink 3 through the mounting block 23 and the telescopic fixing column 21, while the positioning block 2 only rises and falls, and its position does not change.
[0064] When the heat sink 3 changes from the horizontal state in the initial state to the inclined state, the heat pipe 5 distributed in a cone shape on the heat sink 3 also tilts synchronously. The appropriate tilt angle can significantly improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat pipe 5. For example, when nanofluid is used as the working fluid, when the tilt angle is 75°, the heat transfer coefficient and the maximum heat transfer power of the evaporation section and the condensation section are significantly improved. In addition, when the tilt angle is 60°, the maximum heat transfer of the heat exchanger can reach about 1700W, indicating that the appropriate tilt angle can optimize the heat exchange performance.
[0065] Secondly, enhance heat transfer: The adjustment of the tilt angle can improve the flow characteristics inside the heat pipe 5, thereby enhancing heat transfer. For example, the study found that when the tilt angle is 120°, the heat transfer coefficient is the highest, which is suitable for application scenarios that require high heat transfer. In addition, the increase in the tilt angle helps to thin the liquid film in the condensation section, thereby enhancing the evaporation and condensation process. In addition, reducing thermal resistance: A proper inclination angle can reduce the total thermal resistance of the heat pipe 5. For example, when the inclination angle is 60°, the thermal resistance value is the lowest, because gravity assists the liquid to flow back to the evaporator. However, too large an inclination angle may increase the difficulty of liquid reflux, resulting in increased thermal resistance.
[0066] Replay Figure 7As shown, further, in order to ensure that the heat dissipation device of the present application can adapt to different weather conditions, the present application also proposes a separator 8, which is specifically shown as follows: a separator 8 is also provided on the heat dissipation plate 3, and the separator 8 includes a separation plate 80, and a separation plate 80 is connected between the spaced-apart positioning blocks 2 among several positioning blocks 2 on the same side inside the battery housing 1, and an electric push rod 81 is connected to the separation plate 80.
[0067] In the initial state, the plurality of heat dissipation plates 3 along the height direction of the positioning block 2 are all attached to the outer wall of the battery cell 10. This is the maximum limit heat dissipation state of the present application, ensuring the heat dissipation of the battery cell 10. However, when winter comes, the external environment is at a relatively low temperature. If the maximum heat dissipation state is still maintained at this time, the temperature of the battery cell 10 will seriously drop, making it unable to reach the optimal working state, and even affecting the service life of the power battery.
[0068] Therefore, the present application proposes a separator 8. When the external environment is poor, the electric push rod 81 is started, and the output end of the electric push rod 81 drives the heat sinks 3 that are spaced apart from each other among the plurality of heat sinks 3 to move away from the battery cell 10 through the separation plate 80. At this time, gaps appear between some of the heat sinks 3 and the battery cells 10, and the two are separated, so that some of the heat sinks 3 cannot start the heat dissipation function, which indirectly achieves the reduction of the heat dissipation power, ensures the heat dissipation of the power battery in winter, and avoids the heat dissipation effect of the power battery being too strong, resulting in the power battery losing temperature.
[0069] Reference Fig.10 , Fig.11 and Fig.12 As shown, that is, a schematic diagram of the structure of the heat pipe 5 for dissipating heat in the present invention; specifically, a connecting column 40 is provided in the middle of the heat pipe 5 which is distributed in a cone among the plurality of heat dissipation components 4, and a fan 41 for blowing air outward is provided on the connecting column 40, and the fan 41 is provided with an integrally connected motor, and an adjusting ring 42 is also slidably installed on the connecting column 40, and adjusting rods 43 are provided at equal intervals in the circumferential direction of the adjusting ring 42, and the end of the adjusting rod 43 away from the adjusting ring 42 is connected to the side wall of the heat pipe 5.
[0070] An adjusting spring 44 is sleeved on the connecting column 40 , and the position of the adjusting ring 42 is controlled by the adjusting spring 44 .
[0071] The connecting column 40 is a hollow structure and is provided with a strip groove 400 for the adjustment ring 42 to slide. A plurality of deformable pressing plates 401 are installed at equal intervals in the circumferential direction inside the connecting column 40 , and the deformed ends of the deformable pressing plates 401 abut against the adjustment ring 42 .
[0072] In the present application, several groups of heat dissipation components 4 are provided, and each group of heat dissipation components 4 is provided with a plurality of heat pipes 5, and the heat pipes 5 are distributed in a cone shape, and the design of the evaporation end and the condensation end of the heat pipe 5 is very important. The evaporation end should be as close to the heat source as possible to quickly absorb heat; the condensation end needs to have sufficient heat dissipation area to effectively dissipate the heat to the environment.
[0073] Therefore, in the present application, the evaporation ends of the heat pipes 5 are close to each other for absorbing heat; and the condensation ends of the heat pipes 5 are tilted outward for dissipating heat.
[0074] In the initial state, the adjusting ring 42 is away from one end of the connecting column 40 and the fan 41 , and the deformed end of the deformable pressing sheet 401 abuts against the adjusting ring 42 .
[0075] During specific implementation, when the power battery starts working, a large amount of heat is generated during its operation, and the heat will cause the inside of the connecting column 40 to start heating up. When the temperature of the deformed end of the deformable pressing plate 401 rises to the limit temperature it can withstand, the deformable pressing plate 401 starts to deform, and the deformed end of the deformable pressing plate 401 squeezes the adjustment ring 42, so that the adjustment ring 42 slides along the connecting column 40, and the adjustment ring 42 moves to one side of the fan 41. At this time, the adjustment ring 42 squeezes the condensation end of the heat pipe 5 through the adjustment rod 43, so that the condensation end of the heat pipe 5 expands outward, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area of the condensation end, greatly improving its heat dissipation efficiency and performance.
[0076] Embodiment 2: Based on Embodiment 1, in order to further ensure the heat dissipation efficiency of the heat pipe 5, the present application further proposes a heat pipe 5; Fig.13 and Fig.14 As shown, the heat pipe 5 includes a sealed shell 50, a first wick 51, a thermally deformed metal sheet 53 and a second wick 52. The sealed shell 50 is arranged on the heat dissipation plate 3, the first wick 51 is arranged on the inner wall of the sealed shell 50, and the second wick 52 is against the first wick 51.
[0077] A plurality of heat-deformable metal sheets 53 are arranged at equal intervals on the inner wall of the sealed housing 50 , and one end of the heat-deformable metal sheet 53 is connected to one side of the second liquid absorbent core 52 .
[0078] When the evaporation end of the heat pipe 5 begins to absorb heat, the heat moves to its condensation end through the No. 1 wick 51. However, the size of the No. 1 wick 51 is constant, so its maximum heat dissipation efficiency is constant. In order to improve its heat dissipation performance, the present application also proposes a No. 2 wick 52.
[0079] In the initial state, the second absorbent core 52 is not in contact with the first absorbent core 51. When the power battery dissipates heat, the heat will be transferred to the thermally deformable metal sheet 53. When the thermally deformable metal sheet 53 is deformed, the second absorbent core 52 rests on the first absorbent core 51, so that the second absorbent core 52 and the first absorbent core 51 form a whole, which greatly improves the efficiency of heat conversion and ultimately improves the heat dissipation performance of the heat pipe 5.
[0080] Embodiment 2:
[0081] Reference Figure 8 As shown, on the basis of Example 1, in order to ensure the diversity of the angle adjustment of the heat pipe 5, the present application further proposes a plurality of deformable pressing sheets 401 with different performances. Since the temperatures at which the deformable pressing sheets 401 made of different materials deform are also different, the deformable pressing sheets 401 arranged at equal intervals inside the connecting column 40 can be replaced with deformable pressing sheets 401 made of different materials. For the sake of ease of description, they are named here as deformable pressing sheet No. 1 401, deformable pressing sheet No. 2 401 and deformable pressing sheet No. 3 401; and the heat-resistant temperatures of the three deformable pressing sheets 401 are different.
[0082] When the temperature on the heat sink 3 is low, there is no need to adjust the angle of the heat pipe 5. When the temperature of the heat sink 3 rises to the intermediate temperature, the first deformable pressing plate 401 begins to deform, and the first deformable pressing plate 401 lifts the adjustment ring 42. At this time, the adjustment ring 42 squeezes the condensation end of the heat pipe 5 through the adjustment rod 43, so that the condensation end spreads outward.
[0083] When the temperature of the heat sink 3 rises to a high temperature, the second deformable pressing plate 401 begins to deform, and the second deformable pressing plate 401 lifts the adjustment ring 42. At this time, the adjustment ring 42 squeezes the condensation end of the heat pipe 5 through the adjustment rod 43, so that the condensation end further diffuses outward on the basis of the above.
[0084] When the temperature of the heat sink 3 rises to the maximum temperature, the No. 3 deformable pressing plate 401 begins to deform, and the No. 3 deformable pressing plate 401 lifts the adjusting ring 42. At this time, the adjusting ring 42 squeezes the condensing end of the heat pipe 5 through the adjusting rod 43, so that the condensing end further diffuses outward on the basis of the above, and the position moves outward to the maximum range, and several heat pipes 5 are in an umbrella-shaped structure.
[0085] When working: The first step is that when the battery is working, the battery will generate a large amount of heat energy, which will diffuse outward, and then the heat will be absorbed by the heat spreader 9, and then the heat will be transferred to the heat sink 3 through the heat spreader 9, so that the heat sink 3 absorbs the heat energy generated by the battery cell 10, and then the heat energy is absorbed by the evaporation end of the heat pipe 5, and the heat quickly moves to the condensation end through the evaporation end of the heat pipe 5, and transfers the heat to the outside of the battery casing 1, ensuring the timely diffusion of heat, thereby controlling the temperature of the battery cell 10, and ensuring that the battery cell 10 can work in a suitable environment, thereby maintaining its optimal performance.
[0086] Step 2: If the power battery is damaged during use, the damaged part of the power battery can be replaced, and the heat sink 3 at the corresponding part can be replaced separately, avoiding the overall replacement of all the heat sinks 3 in the power battery.
[0087] Step 3: Start the telescopic motor 25, which controls the positioning block 2 on one side of the battery housing 1 to move upward. At this time, the telescopic centering rod 24 on the positioning block 2 rotates around the center point in the middle, so that the two adjacent positioning blocks 2 near the positioning block 2 connected to the telescopic motor 25 move downward. At this time, the positioning block 2 diagonally opposite to the positioning block 2 connected to the telescopic motor 25 moves upward. At this time, the heat sink 3 between the positioning blocks 2 will tilt, and the heat pipes 5 distributed in a cone shape on the heat sink 3 will also tilt synchronously; the appropriate tilt angle can significantly improve the heat exchange efficiency of the heat pipe 5.
[0088] Step 4: When the external environment is poor, the electric push rod 81 is started, and the output end of the electric push rod 81 drives the heat sinks 3 spaced apart from each other among the plurality of heat sinks 3 to move away from the battery cell 10 through the separation plate 80. At this time, gaps appear between some heat sinks 3 and the battery cells 10, and the two are separated, so that some heat sinks 3 cannot start the heat dissipation function, which indirectly achieves the reduction of heat dissipation power, ensures the heat dissipation of the power battery in winter, and avoids the heat dissipation effect of the power battery being too strong, resulting in the loss of temperature of the power battery.
[0089] Step 5: When the power battery starts to work, a large amount of heat is generated during its operation, and the heat will cause the inside of the connecting column 40 to start to heat up. When the temperature of the deformed end of the deformable pressing plate 401 rises to the limit temperature it can withstand, the deformable pressing plate 401 begins to deform, and the deformed end of the deformable pressing plate 401 squeezes the adjusting ring 42, so that the adjusting ring 42 slides along the connecting column 40, and the adjusting ring 42 moves to one side of the fan 41. At this time, the adjusting ring 42 squeezes the condensing end of the heat pipe 5 through the adjusting rod 43, so that the condensing end of the heat pipe 5 expands outward, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area of the condensing end, greatly improving the heat dissipation efficiency and performance.
