Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of batteries, and in particular relates to a heterojunction battery energy storage system. Background Art
[0002] Heterojunction batteries efficiently convert solar energy into direct current (DC), which is then converted into AC through a bidirectional power storage converter (PCS) and fed into the power grid or supplied to the load. Energy storage equipment stores electricity when there is excess power generation and releases it during peak demand or when the grid is off-grid.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0032] In order to enable those skilled in the art to better understand the technical solutions of the present invention, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0033] like Figures 1 and 2As shown, a heterojunction battery energy storage system in one embodiment of the present invention includes a device body 1, an energy management system 2 and a battery support assembly 3 installed in the device body 1, a plurality of battery holding assemblies 4 installed in the battery support assembly 3, and a battery module connected to each of the plurality of battery holding assemblies 4. A control system 5 for controlling the battery holding assemblies 4 is installed on the rear side of the battery holding assemblies 4 in the device body 1, and a solar power generation assembly 6 for auxiliary power supply is installed on the top end surface of the device body 1. The solar power generation assembly 6 includes a solar panel 601. The solar panel 601 absorbs sunlight energy. The solar power generation assembly 6 is connected to the battery energy storage system through a DC-DC converter, and the heating tube is powered first. The remaining electrical energy is directly stored or used by the control system 5. When the battery temperature is high, the control system and the fireproof structure of the inner wall of the drawer are used to effectively prevent the generation and spread of flames.
[0034] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the device body 1 includes a housing 101. A rain cover 102 is mounted on one top end surface of the housing 101. A door 103 is mounted on one side wall of the device body 1. In extremely cold outdoor environments, where the temperature is low, heat generated by the operating batteries can be transferred to the interior of the device body 1. Workers can enter the interior of the device body 1 through door 103 to keep warm, thus avoiding danger in harsh environments. A temperature adjustment assembly 104 is mounted on the rear side of the battery support assembly 3 within the housing 101. A partition 105 is mounted on the inner wall of the housing 101 to separate the energy management system 2 from the battery support assembly 3.
[0035] like Figure 6 As shown, the battery support assembly 3 includes a battery rack 301. Several sets of heating tubes 3011 are mounted on the inner wall of the battery rack 301. The heating tubes 3011 are electrically connected to the solar power generation assembly 6. When the temperature is low, the electricity generated by the solar power generation assembly 6 drives the heating tubes 3011. A distributed layout ensures uniform heat transfer to the battery surface. The heating tubes are linked to the solar panels and energy storage system, and closed-loop control is achieved through a PID temperature controller with a set temperature range of -20°C to 10°C. The surface of the heating tubes is covered with an insulating thermally conductive material, such as a graphene coating, to prevent local overheating and improve thermal efficiency.
[0036] like Figures 4 and 5 and Figures 9 and 10As shown, the battery rack 301 is installed on the inner wall of the housing 101 on one side of the partition wall 105 , and a plurality of battery receiving slots 302 are provided on one side wall of the battery rack 301 . The battery rack 301 is located on a pair of side walls of several groups of battery holding slots 302, and a first slide slot 3021 is provided on each side of several groups of first slide slots 3021. A second slide slot 3022 is provided on one side of each group of first slide slots 3021. The battery holding assembly 4 includes a drawer-type collection bin 401. A pair of side walls of the drawer-type collection bin 401 are integrally formed with a slide rod 402 and a limit block 403 that match the first slide slot 3021 and the second slide slot 3022. A handle 405 is installed on one side wall of the sealing strip 404. The battery rack adopts a modular drawer design. Each drawer is independently connected to the battery module. When a problem occurs in a single battery module, it is convenient to solve it in time while reducing damage to other battery modules. The faulty drawer can be replaced separately. A temperature sensor for detecting the internal temperature of the battery holding slot 302 is installed on the top inner wall of each group of battery holding slots 302 to monitor the temperature of the battery in real time. When the battery needs to be inspected or repaired, the handle 405 is manually pulled to move the drawer-type collection bin 401 toward the side away from the battery rack 301, while driving the side walls of the limit block 403 and the slide bar 402 to slide on the inner wall of the first slide groove 3021, and driving the upper and lower end faces of the slide bar 402 to slide on the inner wall of the second slide groove 3022. When the limit block 403 slides to a side wall that is in contact with the first slide groove 3021 close to the second slide groove 3022, it stops. This is the limit position of the movable drawer-type collection bin 401.
[0037] Furthermore, a sealing strip 404 is fixedly attached to the top end surface of each drawer-type collection bin 401. In extremely cold environments, the temperature difference between the inside and outside of the battery bin may cause condensation. The sealing strip prevents external moisture from penetrating, preventing damage to the battery components due to freezing and expansion of condensed water, while also preventing the risk of short circuits in the circuit boards.
[0038] like Figure 11 As shown, a support partition 406 is installed on the inner wall of the drawer-type collection bin 401. The support partition 406 includes a heat-insulating layer 4061, a flame-retardant layer 4062 and an aerogel layer 4063. The heat-insulating layer 4061 is ceramic fiber or aerogel felt, which blocks heat transfer; the flame-retardant layer 4062 is expanded graphite or aluminum hydroxide composite material, which releases inert gas to inhibit combustion when exposed to high temperature; the aerogel layer 4063 uses silica aerogel to fill the gap to prevent flames from penetrating. When a single battery catches fire, the fire-proof structure can confine the flame to the drawer to avoid affecting adjacent batteries. The flame-retardant layer reduces the release of toxic gases and reduces the risk of personal injury.
[0039] like Figure 2 、 Figure 7 and Figure 8As shown, the control system 5 includes a pair of support columns 501, which are respectively installed on the side walls of the battery support assembly 3 at both ends in the shell 101, one side wall of one group of support columns 501 is provided with a vertical groove 5011, and the side wall of the other group of support columns 501 is provided with a cross groove. A control motor 502 is installed on the inner wall of the device body 1 below the support columns 501, and the output end of the control motor 502 is located in the vertical groove 5011 and is fixedly connected to a threaded rod 503. Bearings are installed on the upper and lower end surfaces of the threaded rod 503, and the inner rings of a pair of bearings are welded to the outer walls of the two ends of the threaded rod 503. The outer wall of the threaded rod 503 is threadedly connected to a support rod 504, and the support rod 504 is close to one end of the threaded rod 503. A threaded hole 5042 is provided to match the threaded rod 503, and a first slider 5043 is integrally formed on the outer wall of the other end of the support rod 504 to match the cross groove on the vertical groove 5011. The outer wall of the first slider 5043 slides on the inner wall of the cross groove, and a moving groove 5041 is provided on the side wall of the support rod 504. Limiting grooves are provided on the upper and lower end surfaces of the moving groove 5041. A rack 505 is installed on one side wall of the support rod 504. A moving block 506 matching the moving groove 5041 is slidably connected in the support rod 504, and a second slider 5061 matching the limiting groove is integrally formed on the outer wall of the moving block 506. The outer wall of the second slider 5061 slides on the inner wall of the limiting groove, and the bottom end surface of the moving block 506 A moving motor 508 is installed on it, and the output end of the moving motor 508 is fixedly connected to a spur gear 509 that matches the rack 505. The rack 505 and the spur gear 509 mesh with each other. A circular hole is opened on the side wall of the moving block 506, and an electric telescopic rod 507 is installed on the inner wall of the circular hole. When the temperature sensor detects that the temperature of a single battery pack is high, the management system drives the control system 5 to work. First, the control motor 502 is turned on, driving the threaded rod 503 to rotate in the support column 501 while meshing with the support rod 504 through the threaded hole 5042, thereby driving the support rod 504 to move up and down, and at the same time driving the first slider 5043 to slide on the inner wall of the cross slot of another set of support columns 501, so as to realize the height adjustment of the support rod 504. After the adjustment, the moving motor 508 is turned on, driving the spur gear 509 to rotate and engage with the rack 505, thereby driving the outer wall of the second slider 5061 to slide on the inner wall of the moving groove 5041, realizing the adjustment of the left and right position of the moving block 506, and driving the moving block 506 to move to the rear side of the battery pack with higher temperature under the action of the control motor 502 and the moving motor 508. Then the electric telescopic rod 507 is opened, pushing the drawer-type collection bin 401 to move outward, so that the battery pack with higher temperature can be automatically cooled in the severe cold environment outdoors. Magnets are installed on the side wall of the electric telescopic rod 507 close to the drawer-type collection bin 401 and the side wall of the drawer-type collection bin 401 close to the electric telescopic rod 507. When the temperature drops,The electric telescopic rod 507 drives the drawer-type collection bin 401 to slide in the opposite direction through magnetic attraction, driving the drawer-type collection bin 401 and the battery pack back into the battery rack 301.
[0040] During use, the solar power generation component 6 adopts low-temperature resistant materials and an inclined angle design to ensure that it can still efficiently receive light in an extremely cold environment. When the battery is affected by the low-temperature environment, it gives priority to powering the heating tube 3011 to restore the battery to normal temperature and ensure the normal use of the battery. The remaining electric energy is directly stored or used by the control system, thereby reducing operating costs and environmental dependence; when the battery temperature is high, the control system 5 controls the battery pack to move to the outside of the battery support component 3, and when the temperature of the battery pack returns to normal, it drives the battery pack back to the battery support component 3 to continue working. When the battery pack catches fire, under the action of the control system 5, the multi-layer structure of the supporting partition 406 is cooperated to organize the spread of the flame to avoid harm to the staff or the surrounding environment, thereby forming a stable heterojunction battery energy storage system.
