Abstract
Description

As EVs gain market share, the requirements for battery systems are becoming increasingly stringent.
[0003] However, the battery modules in the prior art still have the following deficiencies:
[0004] 1. In the prior art, battery modules are basically clamped and fixed by the upper and lower covers using multiple bolts or multiple clips. Due to the large number of cells, the cells cannot be accurately connected to the electrical contacts during the clamping process, so the installation is cumbersome. In addition, in the event of a failure or recycling, it is not convenient to disassemble and maintain.
[0005] 2. Multiple battery cells are clamped and fixed by the upper and lower covers. However, the number of battery cells is large and they are densely arranged. As a result, the heat generated by the battery cells cannot be discharged in time during later use, causing the battery cells to overheat and shorten their lifespan. In severe cases, they are prone to explosion.
[0006] 3. When placing the battery module in the battery box, a fixing structure is often provided in the battery box to facilitate fixing the battery module in the battery box. However, when there are too many fixing structures in the battery box, the ventilation and heat dissipation effects inside the battery box are seriously hindered.

[0066] Reference Figure 11The fixing assembly includes a plurality of limiting grooves 30 provided on the inner wall at the bottom of the box body 25, and the limiting grooves 30 are engaged with the rubber pads 37. The inner wall at the bottom of the box body 25 is fixedly connected with a plurality of first total electrodes 31 engaged with the first electrode 6. The top two sides of the box body 25 are fixedly connected with fixing plates 26. The side where the two fixing plates 26 are close to each other is rotatably connected with a rotating plate 27 that closes the box body 25. The bottom of the rotating plate 27 is fixedly connected with a plurality of second total electrodes 32 engaged with the second electrode 12. An L-shaped stopper 28 is slidably penetrated in the fixed plate 26 to limit the rotating plate 27. A bolt 29 is provided on the side of the L-shaped stopper 28 away from the box body 25, and one end of the bolt 29 passes through the L-shaped stopper 28 and is threadedly connected to the box body 25. When the box body 25 is covered by the rotating plate 27, the second electrode 12 is inserted into the second main electrode 32. The battery module can be fixed by the engagement of the rubber pad 37, the first electrode 6 and the second electrode 12 through the limiting groove 30, the first main electrode 31 and the second main electrode 32. There is no fixed structure designed between the two adjacent battery modules in the box body 25, so that the air in the box body 25 can circulate smoothly, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the box body 25.
[0067] Reference Figure 12 The ventilation assembly includes a plurality of exhaust ports 33 arranged on one side of the box body 25, and a plurality of ventilation ports 34 are provided on the other side of the box body 25. An exhaust fan 35 for exhausting air is provided in the ventilation port 34, and a filter screen 36 for filtering the air is provided in the exhaust port 33 and the ventilation port 34. The box body 25 can be ventilated by the exhaust fan 35, and no fixed structure is designed between two adjacent battery modules in the box body 25, so that the air in the box body 25 can circulate smoothly, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the box body 25.
[0068] Reference Figure 13 A first T-slot 39 is provided on one side of the box body 25, and the first T-slot 39 is staggered with the exhaust port 33, and a second T-slot 40 is provided on the other side of the box body 25, and the second T-slot 40 is staggered with the vent 34, a first T-block 41 is slidably connected in the first T-slot 39, and the end of the first T-block 41 away from the box body 25 is fixedly connected to a damping spring 42, and the end of the damping spring 42 away from the first T-block 41 is fixedly connected to a second T-block 43, and the second T-block 43 cooperates with the second T-slot 40 in the adjacent box body 25. When the two adjacent boxes 25 are docked, the second T-block 43 is snapped into the second T-slot 40 in the adjacent box body 25. The damping spring 42 can provide a buffering effect between the two adjacent boxes 25, thereby preventing the two adjacent boxes 25 from colliding with each other.
[0069] Working principle: Loosen the bolt 29 to release the fixation of the L-shaped stopper 28 and the box body 25, remove the L-shaped stopper 28 to release the brake of the rotating plate 27 by the L-shaped stopper 28, rotate the rotating plate 27 to open the box body 25, and during the rotation of the rotating plate 27, the second total electrode 32 is disengaged from the second electrode 12, and the lower cover 1 and the upper cover 2 are taken out of the box body 25, and then both hands rotate the U-shaped handle 21 respectively to make the U-shaped handle 21 vertical. During the rotation of the U-shaped handle 21, the arc groove 23 rotates accordingly, and the arc groove 23 cooperates with the slider 24, so that the slider 24 can drive the push plate 20 to slide in the direction away from the U-shaped handle 21, and the third spring 19 begins to stretch, and the movement of the push plate 20 can push the trapezoidal card The block 17 pushes the sliding groove 15 and squeezes the second spring 16, thereby releasing the clamping of the trapezoidal block 17 on the upper cover 2, and removing the upper cover 2 from the battery cell through the U-shaped handle 21 to complete the disassembly of the battery module. Conversely, the battery cells are placed in the placement grooves 3 in the lower cover 1, and the electrodes of the battery cells touch the lower contact blocks 5. The upper cover 2 is placed on the top of the battery cell, and the top of the battery cell extends to the placement groove 3 in the upper cover 2. At this time, the electrodes of the battery cell can be stuck in the upper contact block 10, and then the upper cover 2 is squeezed downward. Since the upper contact block 10 touches the electrodes of the battery cell, the first spring 9 begins to compress. As the upper cover 2 squeezes the top of the insertion rod 14 downward, it passes through the insertion hole 13. The trapezoidal block 17 is also located above the upper cover 2 and the trapezoidal block 17 is in the second spring Under the elastic force of the spring 16, it slides outward and just can clamp the upper cover 2, and then the multiple battery cells are fixed through the lower cover 1 and the upper cover 2. Since the two adjacent battery cells are placed in the groove 3, the distance between the two adjacent battery cells is between 0.3cm-0.5cm, and the distance is large, which facilitates sufficient space for air flow between the battery cells and facilitates heat dissipation. Similarly, multiple hollow tubes 38 are fixed and passed through the upper cover 2. When the battery cell heats up, the air temperature between the lower cover 1 and the upper cover 2 rises, and the hot air is discharged to the outside through the hollow tube 38, further improving the heat dissipation effect. When the battery module is placed in the box 25, the rubber pad 37 can be stuck in the corresponding limit groove 30, and the first electrode 6 is stuck in the first total electrode. 31, the battery module is initially limited. When the box body 25 is covered by the rotating plate 27, the second electrode 12 is inserted into the second main electrode 32. The battery module can be fixed by the engagement of the rubber pad 37, the first electrode 6 and the second electrode 12 through the limiting groove 30, the first main electrode 31 and the second main electrode 32, and the box body 25 can be ventilated by the exhaust fan 35. There is no fixed structure designed between the two adjacent battery modules in the box body 25, so that the air in the box body 25 can circulate smoothly, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect of the box body 25. In addition, when the two adjacent boxes 25 are docked, the vibration-damping spring 42 can play a buffering effect between the two adjacent boxes 25 to avoid collision between the two adjacent boxes 25.
