[0042] As can be seen from the background technology, the end plate in the prior art generally only serves to fix the battery cell. The end plate has a single function and cannot be effectively connected with other components on the battery device.
[0043] Therefore, the purpose of this application is to provide a battery device, energy storage system and electrical equipment to address the above problems, which at least facilitates the fixing of the wiring harness socket.
[0044] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this application provides a battery device, including: a battery 10 and an end plate 20, the end plate 20 being disposed at the end of the battery 10, and a first connecting portion 21 being disposed on the end plate 20; a wiring harness socket 30, the wiring harness socket 30 being disposed on a second connecting portion 31, the second connecting portion 31 being detachably connected to the first connecting portion 21, and when the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 31 are connected, the wiring harness socket 30 abuts against the end plate 20 so that the wiring harness socket 30 is supported on the end plate 20.
[0045] By applying the technical solution of this embodiment, the battery device of this application, through the introduction of the first connecting part 21 and the second connecting part 31, makes the connection between the wire harness socket 30 and the end plate 20 more stable. This connection method can not only ensure the fixation of the wire harness socket 30 under normal working conditions, but also make it convenient and quick to disassemble and replace when needed, thereby improving the maintenance efficiency and flexibility of the entire battery device.
[0046] The battery device of this application also simplifies assembly and maintenance. The assembly process is simplified through the detachable connection between the first and second connecting parts. On the production line, the wiring harness socket 30 can be quickly and accurately connected to the end plate 20, reducing assembly time and improving production efficiency. Simultaneously, this design facilitates later maintenance; if the wiring harness socket 30 or the end plate 20 malfunctions, it can be quickly replaced, reducing maintenance costs and time.
[0047] Furthermore, by optimizing the connection method between the wiring harness socket 30 and the end plate 20, the wiring harness socket 30 can fit tightly onto the end plate 20, avoiding additional support structures, thereby saving space inside the battery module and improving battery energy density and overall compactness.
[0048] Optionally, one of the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 31 is a snap-fit hole, and the other of the first connecting portion 21 and the second connecting portion 31 is a snap-fit protrusion.
[0049] This application enables quick connection and disconnection between the wire harness socket 30 and the end plate 20 through the matching of the snap-fit hole and the snap-fit protrusion, without the need for tools, which greatly improves the efficiency and convenience of on-site operation. When the snap-fit protrusion is embedded in the snap-fit hole, the mechanical locking structure between them can ensure a firm connection, and even when the battery device is subjected to vibration or impact, it can maintain a stable electrical connection and physical fixation.
[0050] like Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of this application, the first connecting part 21 is a snap-fit hole, and the second connecting part 31 is a snap-fit protrusion.
[0051] When the wiring harness socket 30 needs to be inspected or replaced, the snap-fit design allows the operator to easily remove and reinstall the wiring harness socket 30 without disassembling the entire battery unit, saving a significant amount of maintenance time and cost and improving the maintenance efficiency of the battery system.
[0052] The end plate 20 of this application further includes: a limiting plate 201 and a clearance space 202. The limiting plate 201 extends in a horizontal direction and is provided with a first connecting part 21. The first connecting part 21 communicates with the clearance space 202, wherein at least a portion of the second connecting part 31 passes through the first connecting part 21 into the clearance space 202.
[0053] The design of the second connecting part 31 and the first connecting part 21 in this application allows the second connecting part 31 to be automatically positioned and fixed through a simple insertion action, without the need for additional fastening tools or complex manual adjustments, which greatly simplifies the assembly process of the battery device and improves production efficiency.
[0054] In a second embodiment not illustrated in this application, the first connecting portion 21 is a snap-fit protrusion, and the second connecting portion 31 is a snap-fit hole.
[0055] The snap-fit structure of this application allows for rapid assembly. The operator only needs to align the snap-fit protrusion with the snap-fit hole and press gently to complete the connection. There is no need for complicated manual alignment or the use of additional tools, such as screwdrivers or welding equipment, which greatly simplifies the assembly process of the battery device and improves production efficiency.
[0056] like Figure 4 As shown, the snap-fit protrusion includes a snap-fit body 311 and a first snap-fit arm 312 and a second snap-fit arm 313 spaced apart on the snap-fit body 311. At least one of the first snap-fit arm 312 and the second snap-fit arm 313 is provided with an abutment portion 314 so that when the first snap-fit arm 312 and the second snap-fit arm 313 are snapped into the snap-fit hole, the abutment portion 314 abuts against the edge of the snap-fit hole.
[0057] This application improves the stability of the connection with the snap-fit hole by spaced out the first snap-fit arm 312 and the second snap-fit arm 313. The double-arm design provides additional support points, effectively dispersing the stress at the connection point and reducing the risk of connection failure or structural damage caused by excessive force at a single point. Furthermore, the abutment part 314 is provided on at least one of the first snap-fit arm 312 and the second snap-fit arm 313. When the snap-fit protrusion is inserted into the snap-fit hole, the abutment part 314 can tightly abut against the edge of the snap-fit hole, thereby forming an additional physical lock and ensuring the stable position of the wire harness socket 30 on the end plate 20, which significantly enhances the stability of the connection.
[0058] In the embodiments of this application, both the first latching arm 312 and the second latching arm 313 are provided with abutting portions 314. The abutting portions 314 protrude relative to the surfaces of the first latching arm 312 and the second latching arm 313. The abutting portions 314 are elastically provided so that when the second connecting portion 31 passes through the first connecting portion 21, the inner wall of the first connecting portion 21 compresses the abutting portion 314. After the second connecting portion 31 passes through the first connecting portion 21 to the clearance space 202, the abutting portion 314 returns to its initial state under the action of elastic restoring force so as to abut against the limiting plate 201.
[0059] In this application, the abutment portion 314 is compressed by the inner wall surface of the first connecting portion 21 when the second connecting portion 31 passes through the first connecting portion 21. Once the abutment portion 314 has completely passed through and is located in the clearance space 202, the abutment portion 314 returns to its initial state under the action of elastic restoring force, thereby tightly abutting against the limiting plate 201 and forming an elastic locking mechanism. This greatly enhances the connection stability between the wire harness socket 30 and the end plate 20. Even when the battery device is subjected to vibration or impact, this elastic locking can effectively prevent the connection from loosening, ensuring the continuity and reliability of the electrical connection.
[0060] Specifically, the first latching arm 312 and the second latching arm 313 extend in a direction away from each other. The first latching arm 312 is provided with a first transition surface, and the second latching arm 313 is provided with a second transition surface. The first transition surface and the second transition surface are fitted to the inner wall surface of the first connecting part 21.
[0061] In this application, the first transition surface and the second transition surface play a positioning and guiding role during the assembly process, helping the operator to accurately and quickly insert the second connecting part 31 into the first connecting part 21, avoiding assembly difficulties or damage to the wire harness socket caused by misalignment, thereby improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.
[0062] like Figure 2 As shown, the snap-fit hole is located at the end of the end plate 20, and at least a portion of the wire harness socket 30 extends out of the end plate 20 on the side away from the battery 10.
[0063] This application places the snap-fit hole at the end of the end plate 20, so that the wire harness socket 30 can naturally extend out of the other side of the end plate 20. This helps to neatly route the wire harness on the wire harness socket 30 outside the battery device, avoids messy wire arrangement, reduces the risk of wire harnesses getting tangled or squeezed, and helps to improve the service life of the wire harness and the overall electrical performance.
[0064] The wiring harness socket 30 in this application includes a plug connection end 301 and a socket snap-fit end 302 arranged sequentially in a vertical direction. The plug connection end 301 has a first connection port 3011, which is disposed toward the battery monitoring component to connect the wiring harness in the wiring harness socket 30 to the battery monitoring component.
[0065] This application shortens the physical distance of signal transmission, reduces signal attenuation and delay, and improves the response speed and monitoring accuracy of the battery monitoring system by setting the first connection port 3011 of the plug connection end 301 toward the battery monitoring component.
[0066] Preferably, the socket snap-fit end 302 in this application snaps into the second connecting part 31, and the second connecting part 31 is provided with a socket snap-fit hole 3021, wherein the socket snap-fit hole 3021 is located on the side of the second connecting part 31 away from the end plate 20, so as to snap into the socket snap-fit end 302.
[0067] The snap-fit connection between the socket snap-fit hole 3021 and the socket snap-fit end 302 in this application provides additional mechanical locking, ensuring stable fixation between the wire harness socket 30 and the second connection part 31. This connection method can effectively prevent the wire harness socket from loosening or dislodging when the vehicle is in motion or subjected to impact or vibration, and maintain the continuity and reliability of the electrical connection.
[0068] Furthermore, the stable snap-fit structure of the wiring harness socket 30 in this application helps reduce contact resistance, ensures efficient transmission of current and signals, thereby optimizing the electrical performance of the battery device and improving the overall efficiency and response speed of the system.
[0069] like Figure 3 As shown, the end plate 20 is provided with a weight-reducing hollow section 22.
[0070] Preferably, a weight-reducing hollow portion 22 is provided in the non-load-bearing or low-stress area of the end plate 20, which can significantly reduce the amount of material used, thereby reducing the weight of the end plate 20. In addition, the design of the weight-reducing hollow portion 22 increases the contact area between the surface of the end plate 20 and the surrounding environment, which is conducive to the air circulation in the weight-reducing hollow portion 22 and improves the heat dissipation performance of the battery module.
[0071] like Figure 3As shown, the end plate 20 is provided with a mounting through hole 23, which extends through both ends of the end plate 20 in a preset direction. The weight reduction hollow part 22 includes a weight reduction hole 221, which is located in the middle of the mounting through hole 23 and communicates with the mounting through hole 23.
[0072] This application achieves more effective weight reduction by providing a weight-reducing hole 221 in the middle of the mounting through hole 23, which further reduces the amount of material used in the end plate 20. This design reduces the overall weight of the end plate 20 by removing material from non-load-bearing areas while ensuring the structural integrity and connection strength of the through hole.
[0073] Specifically, the battery device also includes a reinforcing member 40, which is disposed at the weight reduction hole 221 and connected to the weight reduction edge of the weight reduction hole 221.
[0074] In this application, the reinforcing member 40 is connected to the weight-reducing edge of the weight-reducing hole 221, which locally strengthens the key area around the weight-reducing hole 221, effectively disperses stress concentration, improves the tensile and bending resistance of the end plate 20 in this area, and ensures that the end plate 20 can maintain the integrity and stability of the structure even under extreme working conditions.
[0075] Furthermore, the addition of the reinforcing member 40 helps to optimize the stress distribution of the end plate 20, making it more balanced. When the battery module is subjected to external impact, the reinforcing member 40 can absorb and disperse some of the stress, preventing excessive stress concentration at the edge of the weight reduction hole 221, thereby reducing the risk of end plate 20 breakage and improving the safety of the overall structure.
[0076] Preferably, at least two weight-reducing holes 221 are provided on the mounting through hole 23, and the at least two weight-reducing holes 221 are provided at intervals along the periphery of the mounting through hole 23. There are at least two reinforcing members 40, and at least one reinforcing member 40 is provided in each mounting through hole 23. The reinforcing member 40 at one weight-reducing hole 221 and the reinforcing member 40 at another weight-reducing hole 221 are staggered along a preset direction.
[0077] In this application, the reinforcing members 40 are staggered along a preset direction, which helps to evenly distribute the force applied to the end plate 20, avoid stress concentration at a certain point or area, thereby optimizing the stress distribution of the entire end plate 20 and reducing the risk of damage caused by excessive stress concentration.
[0078] In addition, each weight-reducing hole 221 is provided with a reinforcing member 40. This multi-point distribution of reinforcing members not only locally enhances the structural strength around the weight-reducing hole 221, but also improves the overall deformation resistance of the end plate 20. This layout ensures that the end plate 20 can maintain its shape and functional integrity even when subjected to large loads or impacts.
[0079] Preferably, the side of the reinforcing member 40 near the mounting through hole 23 is an arc surface that matches the inner wall of the mounting through hole 23.
[0080] The arc surface of the reinforcing member 40 near the mounting through hole 23 is adapted to the inner wall of the mounting through hole. This design increases the contact area, improves the structural strength of the connection point, and also helps to distribute stress evenly and reduce stress concentration, thereby increasing the bending and torsional resistance of the end plate 20.
[0081] Preferably, the mounting through hole 23 is located on the side of the end plate 20; and / or, there are at least two mounting through holes 23.
[0082] This application places the mounting through-hole 23 on the side of the end plate 20, which avoids excessive material consumption in the core load-bearing area. At the same time, by setting at least two mounting through-holes 23, the weight distribution is balanced, which helps to achieve the overall lightweight design and compact structure of the battery device.
[0083] like Figure 3 As shown, the end plate 20 includes a main body 24 and a mounting part 25 connected to each other. The mounting part 25 is provided with a mounting through hole 23. The battery device also includes a reinforcing rib 26. The end of the reinforcing rib 26 is connected to the part of the mounting part 25 that is provided with a weight reduction hole 221. The reinforcing rib 26 is attached to the main body 24.
[0084] In this application, the end of the reinforcing rib 26 is connected to the part of the mounting part 25 where the weight reduction hole 221 is provided, which enhances the structural stability of the area. At the same time, the reinforcing rib is attached to the main body 24, forming a three-dimensional reinforcing structure on the entire end plate 20, which further improves the compressive strength and overall rigidity of the end plate 20.
[0085] Furthermore, the reinforcing member 40 and reinforcing rib 26 in this application not only enhance the structure, but may also serve as a heat conduction path, helping to dissipate heat quickly inside the battery device, optimizing the battery's thermal management, maintaining the battery within a suitable operating temperature range, and improving the battery's performance and lifespan.
[0086] Specifically, a weight-reducing groove 27 is provided on one side of the end plate 20. The end plate 20 also includes a main reinforcing rib 28, which is installed on the weight-reducing groove 27 and connected to the groove wall of the weight-reducing groove 27. The main reinforcing rib 28 surrounds the weight-reducing groove 27 to form a first mounting groove 271 and a second mounting groove 272. The first mounting groove 271 is arranged around the periphery of the second mounting groove 272.
[0087] By providing weight-reducing grooves 27 on the end plate 20, the weight of the end plate 20 is significantly reduced, which is crucial for the lightweight design of the battery device. Lightweighting helps improve the energy efficiency ratio and range of electric vehicles, while reducing the burden on the installation structure.
[0088] Specifically, the end plate 20 also includes a lifting part 29, which is disposed in the first mounting groove 271.
[0089] The hoisting part 29 is set in the first mounting slot 271, which not only provides a safe and reliable anchor point for hoisting the battery device, but may also serve as a positioning reference during the assembly process, simplifying the assembly process and improving work efficiency and assembly accuracy.
[0090] Specifically, the end plate 20 also includes a first reinforcing rib 210, which is disposed in the second mounting groove 272 and connected to the groove wall of the second mounting groove 272. The first reinforcing rib 210, the hoisting part 29 and the main reinforcing rib 28 have at least one connection point.
[0091] In this application, the main reinforcing rib 28 not only provides support on the weight-reducing groove 27, but also forms the first mounting groove 271 and the second mounting groove 272, while the first reinforcing rib 210 further reinforces the second mounting groove 272. This multi-layered reinforcing rib design can not only disperse and optimize stress distribution and effectively prevent structural deformation, but also ensure the structural strength and stability of the end plate while reducing weight.
[0092] Preferably, there are two lifting parts 29, which are located on both sides of the second mounting groove 272; and / or, there are at least two first reinforcing ribs 210, which are all disposed in the second mounting groove 272 and are connected at a preset angle.
[0093] By setting two lifting parts 29, which are located on both sides of the second mounting groove 272, this application can provide a more balanced lifting point, enhance the stability during the lifting process, thereby improving the safety of the lifting and reducing the risk of damage to the battery device during the lifting. In addition, the design of the two lifting parts 29 not only provides additional support points during the lifting, but also serves as a positioning reference during the assembly process, simplifying the assembly process and improving assembly efficiency and accuracy.
[0094] In this application, at least two first reinforcing ribs 210 are connected and set at a preset angle in the second mounting groove 272, which can form a three-dimensional stable structure, effectively disperse the force applied to the end plate 20, optimize the stress distribution, avoid stress concentration, and thus enhance the structural stability and deformation resistance of the end plate 20.
[0095] Specifically, the 28 main reinforcing ribs form a grid structure, the first mounting groove 271 includes multiple weight-reducing grooves connected sequentially from end to end along the periphery of the second mounting groove 272, the lifting part 29 is a lifting ring, the outer edge of the lifting ring is connected to the main reinforcing ribs 28, a part of the lifting ring is located in one of the first mounting grooves 271, and the other part of the lifting ring is located in an adjacent first mounting groove 271.
[0096] The grid structure formed by the main reinforcing ribs 28 can provide multi-point support and effectively distribute the load acting on the end plate 20, thereby greatly enhancing the structural strength of the end plate 20. At the same time, by setting the first mounting groove 271 in the non-load-bearing area, the goal of lightweighting is achieved. This balance ensures the stability and safety of the battery device while also improving its energy efficiency and range. The lifting ring, as the lifting part 29, is connected to the main reinforcing ribs 28 at its outer edge, and part of it is located in one first mounting groove 271, while the other part is located in an adjacent first mounting groove 271, ensuring the uniform distribution of force during lifting and improving the safety and efficiency of the lifting operation.
[0097] Specifically, the battery device also includes a second reinforcing rib 212. One end of the second reinforcing rib 212 is connected to the outer ring of the hoisting part 29, and the other end of the second reinforcing rib 212 is connected to the inner wall of the first mounting groove 271. The first reinforcing rib 210 and the second reinforcing rib 212 are set at a preset angle.
[0098] In this application, the first reinforcing rib 210 and the second reinforcing rib 212 are set at a preset angle to form a mutually supporting network, which can more effectively disperse stress and avoid excessive stress concentration at a certain point. This is crucial for improving the durability and impact resistance of the battery device during transportation and installation.
[0099] Specifically, the end plate 20 is provided with a limiting groove 211 adapted to the fixing strap, so that at least part of the fixing strap is fitted into the limiting groove 211; and / or, the side of the end plate 20 near the battery 10 is a plane.
[0100] A limiting groove 211 adapted to the fixing strap is provided on the end plate 20, so that at least part of the fixing strap can be firmly embedded in the limiting groove 211, ensuring the stable position of the fixing strap in the battery module, effectively preventing the strap from shifting under vibration or impact, and improving the structural stability and safety of the battery module.
[0101] The planarization of the end plate 20 in this application, especially the design of its side facing the battery as a flat surface, helps to achieve a tighter and flatter fit between the components of the battery module, optimizes the spatial layout, and improves the compactness of the module.
[0102] Another embodiment of this application provides an energy storage system, including a battery management system and a battery device, wherein the battery device is the aforementioned battery device, and the battery management system is used to monitor and manage the charging, discharging and temperature of the battery device.
