[0025] Embodiment 1: The present invention provides a battery PACK assembly in a new energy vehicle, the core of which is the design of the battery PACK assembly body 100. The body is composed of three major parts: a battery mounting cover 110, a mounting crossbeam 111, and a mounting clamp 112, which together form a stable and easy-to-maintain battery mounting environment.

[0026] Battery mounting cover 110: As the bearing component of the battery box body, the battery mounting cover 110 is made of strong and durable materials to ensure that the battery can be effectively protected from external impact and vibration during the driving of the vehicle. Its design facilitates the installation and removal of the battery box body and is convenient for daily maintenance and replacement.

[0027] Mounting crossbeam 111: There are two mounting crossbeams 111, which cooperate with mounting clamps 112 to fix the battery mounting cover 110 and the battery box body. This design not only enhances the structural strength of the entire battery PACK assembly, but also ensures the stable position of the battery box body in the vehicle to prevent displacement due to bumps or collisions.

[0028] Mounting clamps 112: The mounting clamps 112 are welded on both sides of the battery box body to form reliable connection points with the mounting crossbeams 111. Their design takes into account the need for easy installation and removal, while ensuring the firmness and durability of the connection.

[0029] Battery box design The battery box body is the core component of the battery PACK assembly, including a box body 113, a detachably connected cover plate 115 and an internal battery module 114.

[0030] Box 113: As a container for the battery module, box 113 is made of high-strength, corrosion-resistant materials to ensure that the battery module can still work normally in harsh environments. Its design takes into account performance requirements such as waterproof and dustproof to extend the service life of the battery.

[0031] Cover plate 115: The cover plate 115 is fixed to the box body 113 by a reliable connection method (such as bolt connection, snap connection, etc.) to form a closed battery cavity. The cover plate is designed to be easy to open and close, and is convenient for maintenance and replacement of the battery module.

[0032] Battery module 114: Battery module 114 is the core component of the battery PACK assembly, responsible for storing and providing electrical energy. They are connected together in series or in parallel to form a battery pack to provide power for the vehicle.

[0033] Protection mechanism design In order to protect the battery from damage, a protection mechanism is provided at the bottom end of the battery mounting cover 110. The mechanism includes a bottom protection plate 116 and a buffer column 117 connected between the bottom protection plate 116 and the bottom end of the mounting clamp 112.

[0034] Bottom protection plate 116: The bottom protection plate 116 is made of high-strength and impact-resistant material, which can effectively absorb and alleviate the impact force when the vehicle collides or the bottom is impacted, thereby protecting the battery from damage.

[0035] Buffer column 117: Buffer column 117 includes a damper and a shock absorbing spring, and has good shock absorption and buffering performance. They can provide additional buffering when the bottom protection plate 116 is impacted, further protecting the safety of the battery. Example

The coating can effectively prevent the corrosion of the bottom protection plate by corrosive substances such as water and salt, thereby extending its service life.

[0038] Heat dissipation slots 119: In order to optimize the heat dissipation efficiency of the battery, heat dissipation slots are evenly opened on both sides of the battery box body in Example 2. These slots allow air to circulate, taking away the heat generated by the battery module and reducing the operating temperature of the battery. At the same time, a detachable dustproof net is set at the heat dissipation slot to prevent dust and moisture from entering the battery box. The dustproof net adopts a double-layer structure, the inner layer is a fine mesh to effectively block dust from entering; the outer layer is a waterproof and breathable membrane to further enhance the moisture-proof performance of the equipment.

The insulation layer is made of a material with good insulation performance, which can effectively isolate the electrical connection between the battery module and the box body, ensuring the safe operation of the battery system.

[0041] Application of high thermal conductivity materials and lightweight materials High thermal conductivity material: In order to evenly distribute heat and accelerate the heat dissipation process, high thermal conductivity material is filled between the battery modules and between the battery modules and the inner wall of the box in Example 2. This material is a graphene composite material with excellent thermal conductivity, which helps to quickly and effectively transfer the heat generated by the battery module to the external environment.

[0042] Application of lightweight materials: In order to reduce the overall weight of the battery PACK assembly, the second embodiment uses lightweight and high-strength aluminum alloy material to make the battery mounting cover 110. This material not only has excellent mechanical properties, but also can significantly reduce the weight of the battery system and improve the energy efficiency and endurance of the vehicle.

[0043] Corrosion and impact resistant material selection Stainless steel material: In order to enhance the corrosion resistance and structural stability of the mounting crossbeam 111 and the mounting clamp 112 under long-term use, the second embodiment uses stainless steel to make these components. Stainless steel has good corrosion resistance and mechanical properties, and can ensure the stable operation of the battery PACK assembly in harsh environments.
