The liquid cooling channel adopts a combined structure of the support plate and the heat conducting plate, the thermal conductivity of the support plate being set smaller than that of the heat conducting plate, reducing the heat from the external environment being absorbed by the cooling medium in the cooling liquid channel, which is beneficial to reducing heat loss.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be described clearly and completely below. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, not all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application: Referring to Figures 1 to 9 The present application discloses a new energy vehicle battery tray supporting heat dissipation and heat preservation, which comprises a tray 100, a plurality of batteries 101 are installed in the tray 100, a cooling structure and a temperature insulation structure are installed in the tray 100, and a plurality of temperature guide plates 300 are slidingly installed in the tray 100. A plurality of batteries 101 are arranged between adjacent temperature guide plates 300, and a positioning and adjusting mechanism is connected to the temperature guide plate 300 to adjust the distance between the two adjacent temperature guide plates 300.

[0019] Specifically, the cooling structure comprises a water-cooled heat conduction plate 200, which is arranged in the tray 100 below the battery 101. The water-cooled heat conduction plate 200 is internally provided with a guide pipe 201, and the water-cooled heat conduction plate 200 is provided with a liquid inlet pipe 202 and a liquid outlet pipe 203 on one side, which are in communication with the guide pipe 201. The guide pipe 201 is internally provided with a heating rod 205.

[0020] Here, the cooling structure adopts a flow guide tube 201 set in the water-cooled heat conductive plate 200, so that in a high-temperature environment, the cooling medium is transported to the flow guide tube 201 through the liquid inlet pipe 202. In this example, the cooling medium used is water, so that the heat generated by the battery 101 during use is transferred to the water-cooled heat conductive plate 200 in contact with its bottom surface. Through heat exchange with the cooling water in the flow guide tube 201, auxiliary heat dissipation of the battery 101 is achieved. In order to improve the heat transfer effect, thermal grease can be applied between the water-cooled heat conductive plate 200 and the battery 101.

[0021] When in a low temperature environment, the liquid flowing through the flow tube 201 can be heated by turning on the heating rod 205 , and the temperature is transferred to the battery 101 through the water-cooled heat conduction plate 200 to heat the battery 101 .

[0022] In this example, the thermal insulation structure includes a thermal pad 204 attached to the inner sidewalls and bottom surface of the tray 100. The water-cooled heat conducting plate 200 and the battery 101 are both located within the thermal pad 204. In this example, the thermal pad 204 is made of a polyurethane foam material or a ceramic silicone rubber insulation material, which can provide insulation and reduce heat loss.

[0023] In this example, the positioning and adjustment mechanism includes a connecting frame group, an adjusting screw sleeve 302, and a fixed screw 303. The connecting frame group corresponds to the heat conducting plate 300 in number and position. Each connecting frame group includes two connecting frames, which are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the width direction of the corresponding heat conducting plate 300; there are two fixed screws 303, which are fixedly installed on both sides of the length direction of the connecting frame. Through holes are provided on both end portions of the connecting frame, and the connecting frame is sleeved on the fixed screw 303 through the through holes. The adjusting screw sleeve 302 corresponds to the connecting frame group in number and position. An adjusting screw sleeve 302 is provided between the two connecting frames in each connecting frame group, and the adjusting screw sleeve 302 is threadedly connected to the fixed screw 303.

[0024] Each connecting frame includes two connecting plates 301 at both ends, a positioning screw 306 connected between the two connecting plates 301, and a plurality of limiting nuts 308 sleeved on the positioning screw 306 and threadedly connected to the positioning screw 306. The limiting nuts 308 on the two connecting frames on both sides of the same heat conducting plate 300 are symmetrically arranged, and the positioning adjustment mechanism also includes a group of positioning plates 307. The positioning plate 307 group corresponds to the heat conducting plate 300 in number and position. Each group of positioning plates 307 includes a plurality of positioning plates 307 that are movably clamped on the heat conducting plate 300 at intervals along the length direction of the heat conducting plate 300. Each positioning plate 307 corresponds to a pair of symmetrically arranged limiting nuts 308 on both sides of the heat conducting plate 300. Each group of limiting nuts 308 includes two limiting nuts 308. The two limiting nuts 308 are symmetrically pressed on both sides of the corresponding positioning plate 307 along the length direction of the positioning screw 306.

[0025] The spacing between two adjacent thermal conductive plates 300 is adjusted using a positioning adjustment mechanism based on the size of the battery 101 so that the thermal conductive plates 300 fit closely to the sides of the battery 101. Specifically, by rotating the adjusting screw 302, the corresponding connecting frame moves axially along the fixing screw 303, thereby moving the thermal conductive plate 300 along its width, ensuring that the thermal conductive plate 300 is in close contact with the corresponding battery 101.

[0026] After rotating the adjusting screw sleeve 302, the two limiting nuts 308 in the limiting nut 308 group on both sides of the rotating positioning plate 307 are contacted to limit the positioning plate 307, and the positioning plate 307 is pushed to adjust the distance between the two adjacent positioning plates 307 so that the two can fit the surface of the battery 101, and then the limiting nuts 308 are tightened to fix the positioning plate 307. During the specific adjustment process, the positioning plates 307 on the two adjacent heat conducting plates 300 need to be adjusted synchronously, so that the installation and positioning of the battery 101 can be achieved through the heat conducting plates 300 on both sides and the adjacent positioning plates 307, and it can adapt to the installation and use of batteries 101 of different sizes.

[0027] In this example, two parallel guide bars 304 are mounted on the inner wall of the tray 100. The heat conducting plate 300 is provided with guide holes 305 that mate with the guide bars 304. The heat conducting plate 300 slides along the length of the guide bars 304 through the guide holes 305. The guide bars 304 and guide holes 305 restrict the movement of the heat conducting plate 300, preventing it from shifting.

[0028] In this example, in order to improve the heat dissipation and heat preservation effect of the battery 101, a heat conducting pipe 411 is provided inside the heat conducting plate 300. The heat conducting pipe 411 is connected to the flow conducting pipe 201 on the water-cooled heat conducting plate 200 through a flow conducting structure.

[0029] Specifically, the diversion structure includes a connecting pipe 401, a diversion pipe 400, a transfer pipe 402 and a bellows 403. The connecting pipe 401 is arranged outside the heat conduction plate 300 and is connected to the heat conduction pipe 411. The diversion pipe 400 is connected to the diversion pipe 201 on the water-cooled heat conduction plate 200. The diversion pipe 400 and the bellows 403, and the bellows 403 and the connecting pipe 401 are respectively connected through a transfer pipe 402.

[0030] Fixing parts are also provided between the shunt pipe 400 and the transfer pipe 402, and between the connecting pipe 401 and the transfer pipe 402. The fixing parts include an umbrella-shaped ring 404 and a sealing ring 405. The sealing ring 405 is in contact with the inner wall of the transfer pipe 402, and the umbrella-shaped ring 404 is pressed against the outer side of the sealing ring 405. The fixing parts also include a plurality of pressing screws 406. The plurality of pressing screws 406 are evenly spaced along the circumference of the transfer pipe 402. Each pressing screw 406 passes through the side wall of the transfer pipe 402 along its own axial direction and presses against the side wall of the corresponding shunt pipe 400 or connecting pipe 401, while contacting the inclined surface of the umbrella-shaped ring.

[0031] Through the above technical solution, before adjusting the position of the heat conducting plate 300, the corresponding pressing screws 406 on both sides of the heat conducting plate 300 are rotated first. When the pressing screws 406 are rotated, they can move by cooperating with the threads of the transfer tube 402, so that the pressing screws 406 are separated from the extrusion of the surface of the shunt tube 400 or the connecting tube 401. At the same time, the pressing screws 406 will be separated from the contact with the inclined surface of the corresponding umbrella-shaped collar 404. At this time, the transfer tube 402 can have a certain amount of activity space on the shunt tube 400 or the connecting tube 401, and the heat conducting plate 300 can be moved. 0, the movement of the heat conducting plate 300 drives the corresponding connecting pipe 401 to move, thereby causing the corresponding two transfer pipes 402 to rotate on the shunt pipe 400 and the connecting pipe 401 respectively. At the same time, the distance between the two transfer pipes 402 will also change, thereby driving the bellows 403 to expand and contract to adapt. When the position of the heat conducting plate 300 is adjusted, the corresponding pressing screw 406 is rotated in the opposite direction to be squeezed against the inclined surface of the umbrella-shaped ring 404 again, so that the sealing ring 405 is tightly fitted with the inner wall of the transfer pipe 402 to improve the sealing performance.

[0032] In this example, the bellows 403 is also provided with a reinforcement structure for fixing it, and the reinforcement structure includes a reinforcement sleeve 407, a connecting rod 408, a support sleeve rod 409 and a mounting seat 401. The reinforcement sleeve 407 is fixedly sleeved on the radial outer side of the bellows 403. There are two connecting rods 408, which are symmetrically installed on both sides of the reinforcement sleeve 407. The length extension direction of the connecting rod 408 is set parallel to the axial center line direction of the bellows 403. A support sleeve rod 409 is slidably sleeved on the upper and lower sides of each connecting rod 408. The end of the support sleeve rod 409 away from the connecting rod 408 is installed on the outer surface of the transfer tube 402 on the corresponding side through the mounting seat 401.

[0033] By adopting the above technical solution, when the position of the transfer tube 402 changes during the movement of the heat conduction plate 300, the corresponding support sleeve rod 409 can be driven to slide on the connecting rod 408, and the connecting rod 408 and the support sleeve rod 409 are used to provide auxiliary support for the bellows 403 to prevent the bellows 403 from deforming.

[0034] In addition, in this example, the heat conducting tube 411 is composed of a main tube I and multiple branch tubes I with a pinnate network structure; the flow conduit 201 is composed of a main tube II and multiple branch tubes II with an arc-shaped parallel vein structure. Specifically, the heat conducting tube 411 adopts a topological structure similar to the pinnate network veins of the leaves of the genus Prunus in the Rosaceae family, dicotyledons, angiosperms, and the flow conduit 201 adopts a topological structure similar to the arc-shaped parallel veins of the leaves of the genus Melastoma in the Melastomataceae family, dicotyledons, angiosperms. The bionic leaf vein flow channel designs of the above two have the following advantages over traditional flow channel structures under the same coolant parameters: 1) High heat exchange efficiency: The leaf vein flow channel design mimics the leaf vein structure in nature, significantly reducing flow channel pressure drop, lowering flow resistance, and minimizing energy loss during liquid flow. This allows the liquid medium to flow faster, achieving higher heat exchange efficiency and more effectively controlling battery temperature. 2) Uniform temperature distribution: The bionic leaf vein flow channel design ensures that the liquid medium is evenly distributed in the thermal conductivity plate, ensuring uniform temperature in all parts of the battery pack, avoiding local overheating and extending the battery life.

[0035] In summary, the water-cooled heat conducting plate 200 with the built-in flow guide tube 201 and the heat conducting plate 300 with the built-in temperature conducting tube 411 achieve heat transfer to the side and bottom surfaces of the battery 101, making the heat dissipation or heat preservation of the battery 101 more uniform and improving the heat dissipation and heat preservation effects.

[0036] It should be emphasized that the above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not limit the present invention in any form. Any simple modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the case.
