Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of energy storage devices, and particularly to an energy storage container with a variable energy storage rack. Background Art
[0002] With the increasing global demand for sustainable energy solutions, energy storage technology, as a key link in solving the intermittency and volatility problems of renewable energy, has become increasingly important. Among many energy storage solutions, energy storage containers are favored for their modularity, flexibility, and convenience. Such energy storage systems are usually designed in the form of standard-sized containers, with battery packs, power conversion equipment, and other necessary auxiliary facilities configured inside. These containers can be quickly deployed to any place where additional power supply or grid support is needed, such as remote areas, emergency rescue scenarios, or industrial sites.
[0003] Currently, most energy storage containers on the market are internally composed of steel frames, which are mainly used to support and fix various energy storage devices, such as battery modules, inverters, etc. However, this traditional design scheme has certain limitations: due to the fixed steel frame structure, its adaptability is poor. Specifically, in the actual application process, when users need to install some devices with larger volumes or special shapes, it will be found that the existing steel frame layout cannot meet the requirements, which not only limits the expansion ability of the energy storage system but also may affect the efficiency and performance of the entire system. In addition, the fixed steel frame design also means a lack of flexibility in the face of different project requirements. Different application scenarios may have different requirements for the size, capacity, and types of equipment of the energy storage system. For example, some projects may prefer high-density energy storage, while others may require more physical space to accommodate specific types of equipment. Therefore, how to design an energy storage container that can flexibly adjust its internal structure according to specific needs has become one of the urgent technical challenges in the industry. Summary of the Invention
[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides an energy storage container with a variable energy storage rack, which can solve the disadvantages of the traditional energy storage container with poor adaptability, which not only limits the expansion ability of the energy storage system but also may affect the efficiency and performance of the entire system, and lacks flexibility in the face of different project requirements.
[0005] The technical solution is as follows: A energy storage container with a variable energy storage rack, including a box body, a box door and a frame.

It also includes a horizontal guide rail, a first slider, a first mounting bracket, a vertical guide rail, a second slider, a second mounting bracket, a supporting plate and a limiting mechanism. Horizontal guide rails are installed at intervals on the inner bottom and inner top of the frame. The horizontal guide rails on the upper and lower sides are parallel. First sliders are slidably installed at intervals on the horizontal guide rails. A first mounting bracket is installed on the first slider. A vertical guide rail is installed between two first mounting brackets on the same vertical line. Second sliders are slidably arranged at intervals on the vertical guide rail. A second mounting bracket is installed on the second slider. A supporting plate is installed between the second mounting brackets on the same front-rear straight line. The supporting plate is used to support the energy storage device. Limiting mechanisms are arranged between the horizontal guide rail and the vertical guide rail. The limiting mechanism is used to limit the first slider on the horizontal guide rail and limit the second slider on the vertical guide rail.
[0006] Preferably, the limiting mechanism includes a first rack, a second rack and a first tooth block. A first rack is arranged on the horizontal guide rail, a second rack is arranged on the vertical guide rail. First tooth blocks are slidably arranged inside the first slider and the second slider. The first tooth block inside the first slider meshes with the first rack, and the first tooth block inside the second slider meshes with the second rack.
[0007] Preferably, it also includes a handle. A handle is installed on the first tooth block. The handle is used to take out the first tooth block from inside the first slider and the second slider.
[0008] Preferably, it also includes a screw. A recess is formed on the side of the first tooth block. Screws are threadedly arranged on the sides of the first slider and the second slider. The screw is used to be inserted into the recess to limit the first tooth block inside the first slider and the second slider.
[0009] Preferably, it also includes a rubber block. Rubber blocks are installed on the sides of the first slider and the second slider. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the first tooth block. The rubber block is used to be inserted into the arc-shaped groove to limit the first tooth block sliding out of the first slider and the second slider.
[0010] Preferably, it also includes a rubber sheet and a second tooth block. Rubber sheets are arranged on the sides of the first slider and the second slider. A second tooth block is connected to the rubber sheet. The second tooth block connected to the first slider meshes with the first rack, and the second tooth block connected to the second slider meshes with the second rack.
[0011] Preferably, a slope is formed on the side of the first tooth block. The slope is used to guide the alignment of the first tooth block.
[0012] Preferably, it also includes a plastic block. Plastic blocks are installed at intervals on the supporting plate. The plastic block is used to block the contact between the side of the energy storage device and the supporting plate.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: 1. By adopting horizontal guide rails, vertical guide rails, and corresponding sliders and mounting brackets, the present invention realizes flexible adjustment of the internal structure of the energy storage container, enabling the energy storage system to be quickly adjusted according to the sizes and shapes of different energy storage devices. This not only greatly improves the adaptability and flexibility of the system but also effectively enhances the expansion ability of the system. Moreover, by precisely adjusting the spacing between energy storage devices, air circulation can be optimized, contributing to heat dissipation management and thus improving the efficiency and performance of the entire energy storage system.
[0014] 2. By setting up a limiting mechanism, the present invention can ensure the stability of each component during use, prevent position deviation caused by vibration or other external forces, and increase the operating safety.
[0015] 3. By setting up screws and rubber blocks, the present invention can not only use the screws to fix the first tooth blocks in the first slider and the second slider to prevent the first tooth blocks from loosening and detaching from the first slider and the second slider but also use the rubber blocks to limit the first tooth blocks sliding out of the first slider and the second slider to prevent the first tooth blocks from moving excessively and falling out of the first slider and the second slider.

Detailed implementation manners
[0027] The present invention will be further described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.
[0028] Embodiment: A energy storage container with a variable energy storage rack, as shown in Figures 1 - 9 figures, includes a box body 1, a box door 2 and a frame 3; two box doors 2 are rotatably installed on the front and rear sides of the box body 1; a frame 3 is arranged inside the box body 1; It further includes a horizontal guide rail 4, a first slider 5, a first mounting bracket 6, a vertical guide rail 7, a second slider 8, a second mounting bracket 9, a supporting plate 10 and a limiting mechanism; horizontal guide rails 4 are installed at intervals on the inner bottom and inner top of the frame 3, and the horizontal guide rails 4 on the upper and lower sides are parallel; first sliders 5 are slidably installed at intervals on the horizontal guide rails 4; a first mounting bracket 6 is installed on the top of the first slider 5; a vertical guide rail 7 is installed between two first mounting brackets 6 on the same vertical line; second sliders 8 are slidably arranged at intervals on the right side of the vertical guide rail 7 near the left side inside the frame 3, second sliders 8 are slidably arranged at intervals on the left side of the vertical guide rail 7 near the right side inside the frame 3, and second sliders 8 are slidably arranged at intervals on both the left and right sides of the vertical guide rail 7 in the middle of the frame 3. The second slider 8 has the same structure as the first slider 5; a second mounting bracket 9 is installed on the side of the second slider 8; a supporting plate 10 is installed between the second mounting brackets 9 on the front and rear same straight line, and the supporting plate 10 is used to support the energy storage device; a limiting mechanism is arranged between the horizontal guide rail 4 and the vertical guide rail 7, and the limiting mechanism is used to limit the first slider 5 on the horizontal guide rail 4 and limit the second slider 8 on the vertical guide rail 7, so as to fix the first slider 5 and the second slider 8.
[0029] As shown in Figure 8 and Figure 9As shown, the limiting mechanism includes a first rack 11, a second rack 12 and a first tooth block 13; the first rack 11 is arranged at the top of the horizontal guide rail 4; the second racks 12 are arranged on both the left and right sides of the vertical guide rail 7; the first tooth blocks 13 are slidably arranged in the first slider 5 and the second slider 8, the first tooth block 13 in the first slider 5 meshes with the first rack 11, and the first tooth block 13 in the second slider 8 meshes with the second rack 12.
[0030] When in use, first pull the box door 2 to rotate and open, then pull the first tooth block 13 on the first slider 5 to move forward, so that the first tooth block 13 is separated from the first rack 11, thereby releasing the limit on the first slider 5 on the horizontal guide rail 4. Then pull the first slider 5 to move left and right, so as to drive the first mounting bracket 6, the vertical guide rail 7, the second slider 8, the second mounting bracket 9 and the supporting plate 10 to move left and right, thereby adjusting the distance between the supporting plates 10 on both sides, so that the distance between the supporting plates 10 on both sides is adapted to the width of the energy storage device. After adjustment, then push the first tooth block 13 on the first slider 5 to move backward and reset, so that the first tooth block 13 meshes with the first rack 11 again, thereby limiting the first slider 5 on the horizontal guide rail 4; Subsequently, pull the first tooth block 13 on the second slider 8 to move forward, so that the first tooth block 13 is separated from the second rack 12, thereby releasing the limit on the second slider 8 on the vertical guide rail 7. Then pull the second slider 8 to move up and down, so as to drive the second mounting bracket 9 and the supporting plate 10 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the distance between the supporting plates 10 on the upper and lower sides, so that the distance between the supporting plates 10 on the upper and lower sides is adapted to the height of the energy storage device. After adjustment, then push the first tooth block 13 on the second slider 8 to move backward and reset, so that the first tooth block 13 meshes with the second rack 12 again, thereby limiting the second slider 8 on the vertical guide rail 7; In this way, the energy storage layout in the box 1 can be adjusted according to the size of the energy storage device. After the energy storage layout in the box 1 is adjusted, then place the energy storage devices one by one between the supporting plates 10 for storage, and finally push the box door 2 to rotate and close.
[0031] See Figures 9 - 10 As shown, it further includes a handle 14; the handle 14 is installed on the front side of the first tooth block 13, and the handle 14 is used to take out the first tooth block 13 from the first slider 5 and the second slider 8.
[0032] By setting the handle 14, when the user needs to pull or push the first tooth block 13 to move, the handle 14 can be pulled or pushed to move, so that the handle 14 drives the first tooth block 13 to move synchronously. In this way, it is convenient for the user to operate.
[0033] See Figures 8 - 10As shown in the figure, it further includes a screw rod 16; a recess 15 is formed on the side of the first tooth block 13, and screw rods 16 are threadedly arranged on the sides of the first slider 5 and the second slider 8 respectively. The screw rods 16 are used to be inserted into the recess 15 to limit the first tooth block 13 in the first slider 5 and the second slider 8.
[0034] By providing the screw rod 16, when the user needs to pull the first tooth block 13 forward, first twist the screw rod 16 to rotate it, so that the screw rod 16 moves away from the first tooth block 13, thereby causing the screw rod 16 to leave the recess 15 on the first tooth block 13, and further releasing the limit on the first tooth block 13 by the screw rod 16. After that, the user can pull the first tooth block 13 forward; when the user pushes the first tooth block 13 backward to reset, then twist the screw rod 16 to reverse and reset it, so that the screw rod 16 moves toward the first tooth block 13 to reset, thereby causing the screw rod 16 to return to the recess 15 on the first tooth block 13 again, and further limiting the first tooth block 13 by the screw rod 16, so as to fix the first tooth block 13 in the first slider 5 and the second slider 8 and prevent the first tooth block 13 from loosening and detaching from the first slider 5 and the second slider 8.
[0035] See Figures 8 - 10 As shown in the figure, it further includes rubber blocks 17; rubber blocks 17 are installed on the front sides of the first slider 5 and the second slider 8 respectively, and the side of the rubber block 17 facing the handle 14 is set as an arc surface; an arc-shaped groove 18 is formed on the first tooth block 13, and the rubber blocks 17 are used to be inserted into the arc-shaped groove 18 to limit the first tooth block 13 sliding out of the first slider 5 and the second slider 8.
[0036] By providing the rubber blocks 17, when pulling the first tooth block 13 forward, the first tooth block 13 will contact the arc surface of the rubber block 17. At this time, the first tooth block 13 will squeeze the rubber block 17 to deform. When the rubber block 17 is aligned with the arc-shaped groove 18 on the first tooth block 13, the rubber block 17 returns to its original state, and the rubber block 17 will be inserted into the arc-shaped groove 18, so as to limit the first tooth block 13 sliding out of the first slider 5 and the second slider 8 to prevent the first tooth block 13 from moving excessively and falling out of the first slider 5 and the second slider 8; when pushing the first tooth block 13 backward to reset, the first tooth block 13 will squeeze the rubber block 17 to deform, so that the rubber block 17 leaves the arc-shaped groove 18. When the first tooth block 13 separates from the rubber block 17, the rubber block 17 returns to its original state.
[0037] See Figure 8 and Figure 10As shown in the figure, it further includes a rubber sheet 19 and a second tooth block 20; rubber sheets 19 are provided on the sides of the first slider 5 and the second slider 8; a second tooth block 20 is connected to the rubber sheet 19, and the second tooth block 20 connected to the first slider 5 meshes with the first rack 11, and the second tooth block 20 connected to the second slider 8 meshes with the second rack 12; an inclined surface 21 is provided on the side of the first tooth block 13, and the inclined surface 21 is used to guide the first tooth block 13 for alignment.
[0038] By providing the rubber sheet 19 and the second tooth block 20, when the first slider 5 moves on the horizontal guide rail 4 or the second slider 8 moves on the vertical guide rail 7, the first slider 5 and the second slider 8 will drive the rubber sheet 19 and the second tooth block 20 thereon to move synchronously. When the second tooth block 20 moves, the first rack 11 or the second rack 12 will intermittently squeeze and release the second tooth block 20 (the protruding structure of the first rack 11 or the second rack 12 will squeeze the second tooth block 20, and the recessed structure of the first rack 11 or the second rack 12 will release the second tooth block 20). When the first rack 11 or the second rack 12 squeezes the second tooth block 20, the second tooth block 20 drives the rubber sheet 19 to deform. When the first rack 11 or the second rack 12 releases the second tooth block 20, the rubber sheet 19 returns to its original state, and the rubber sheet 19 drives the second tooth block 20 to return to its original state. After that, when the first slider 5 and the second slider 8 need to stop, the user can check whether the second tooth block 20 meshes with the first rack 11 or the second rack 12. If the second tooth block 20 meshes with the first rack 11 or the second rack 12, it means that when the first tooth block 13 is pushed backward to reset later, the first tooth block 13 can mesh with the first rack 11 or the second rack 12; if the second tooth block 20 does not mesh with the first rack 11 or the second rack 12, it means that when the first tooth block 13 is pushed backward to reset later, the first tooth block 13 does not mesh with the first rack 11 or the second rack 12. Therefore, it is necessary to timely adjust the positions of the first slider 5 and the second slider 8 so that the second tooth block 20 meshes with the first rack 11 or the second rack 12. In this way, when the first tooth block 13 is pushed backward later, the situation where the first tooth block 13 cannot be reset can be avoided; after that, when the first tooth block 13 is pushed backward to reset, the inclined surface 21 on the first tooth block 13 will contact the first rack 11 or the second rack 12. At this time, the design of the inclined surface 21 helps to make it easier for the first tooth block 13 to be correctly docked with the first rack 11 or the second rack 12 when the first tooth block 13 is pushed to reset, ensuring that the meshing process is smoother and unobstructed.
[0039] See Figure 7 As shown in the figure, it further includes a plastic block 22; plastic blocks 22 are installed at intervals on the supporting plate 10, and the plastic blocks 22 are used to block the contact between the side of the energy storage device and the supporting plate 10.
[0040] By setting the plastic block 22, when the user places the energy storage devices one by one between the supporting plates 10 for storage, the barrier of the plastic block 22 can prevent the side surface of the energy storage device from contacting the supporting plate 10, so that the side surface of the energy storage device only contacts the plastic block 22, thereby reducing the frictional force suffered by the energy storage device during the moving placement process (the friction between the plastic block 22 and the side surface of the energy storage device is only point-to-surface friction, while the friction between the supporting plate 10 and the side surface of the energy storage device is surface-to-surface friction. In comparison, the frictional force suffered by the former energy storage device during movement is smaller than that of the latter), thus facilitating the user to place the energy storage devices one by one between the supporting plates 10 for storage.
[0041] The above are only examples of the present invention and are not intended to limit the present invention. Any equivalent replacement made within the principle of the present invention shall be included in the protection scope of the present invention. The content not elaborated in detail in the present invention belongs to the well-known prior art of those skilled in the art.
