DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0019] The present application will now be described more fully hereinafter with reference to the accompanying drawings, in which currently preferred embodiments of the application are shown. The application may, however, be embodied in many different forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided by way of thorough and complete disclosure of the application and are fully presented by the scope of the application to those skilled in the art.

[0020] Example 1: A heat dissipation structure of a power battery pack, as shown in the figure, comprising a shell 1; Figures 1-6 Further comprising a water storage frame 2 and a latch 3; the shell 1 is provided with two symmetrically arranged heat dissipation structures, each of which is composed of a plurality of equidistantly arranged heat dissipation grooves 101; the shell 1 is connected to two symmetrically arranged water storage frames 2 through torsion spring shafts; each water storage frame 2 is inserted with a latch 3 at the lower part of the shell 1; and each water storage frame 2 is provided with a water storage cavity 201. In order to prevent impurities from entering the inside of the shell 1, each heat dissipation groove 101 is provided with a filter screen.

[0021] In order to facilitate transportation, a handle is arranged at the upper part of the shell 1.

[0022] In order to facilitate the insertion of the latch 3 into the water storage frame 2 and the shell 1, the end of the latch 3 facing the shell 1 is tapered.

[0023] Each water storage frame 2 is provided with an inclined water receiving surface 202, and the end of the water receiving surface 202 facing the shell 1 is lower when the water storage frame 2 is unfolded to a horizontal state.

[0024] In order to facilitate the absorption of heat emitted by the power battery pack, the water storage frame 2 is made of heat-conducting metal material, such as steel.

[0025] Further comprising a water baffle 22 and a guide plate 23; two symmetrically arranged water baffles 22 are welded to the upper side of the shell 1; two symmetrically arranged guide plates 23 are welded to the upper side of the shell 1; the two water baffles 22 are in contact with the two guide plates 23; and the two guide plates 23 are located above one water storage frame 2.

[0026]

[0027] ​The T-shaped movable plate 21 is also included; two water storage frames 2 are respectively connected with a T-shaped movable plate 21 through sliding; five water outlets one 203 are respectively formed on each water storage frame 2; five water outlets two 2101 are respectively formed on each T-shaped movable plate 21; and each water outlet one 203 corresponds to a water outlet two 2101.

[0028] In use, the battery pack is installed in the shell 1, and the shell 1 is carried and placed at a use site by a person, and then the two pins 3 are pulled out from the water storage frame 2 and the shell 1, and under the action of the torsion spring rotating shaft between the water storage frame 2 and the shell 1, the water storage frame 2 is turned upward to expand to a horizontal state, so that the heat dissipation groove 101 is opened, as shown in Figure 4 Thus, when the battery pack is used, heat can be dissipated through the heat dissipation groove 101 to maintain a stable working state, and at this time, the water storage frame 2 can play a role in shading to reduce the area of the shell 1 directly irradiated by sunlight, thereby reducing the additional heat added to the shell 1 by solar radiation, thereby playing a role in assisting to reduce the temperature of the shell 1 and improving the heat dissipation efficiency thereof.

[0029] When used outdoors and in rainy weather, rainwater is easily blown horizontally by the wind and then easily enters the shell 1 through the heat dissipation groove 101 to cause damage to the power battery pack; therefore, the water storage cavity 201 is arranged on the water storage frame 2, and after the rainwater falls on the water storage frame 2, it flows to the water storage cavity 201 of the water storage frame 2, and when the water storage cavity 201 is filled with rainwater, the gravity of the rainwater is sufficient to overcome the torsion of the torsion spring rotating shaft connecting the water storage frame 2 and the shell 1, and under the action of the gravity of the rainwater, the water storage frame 2 is turned downward around the torsion spring rotating shaft connecting the water storage frame 2 and the shell 1, so that the water storage frame 2 is attached to the shell 1, thereby closing the heat dissipation groove 101, as shown in Figure 1 At this time, the rainwater is still in the water storage cavity 201, so that the water storage frame 2 is always attached to the shell 1, thereby reducing the damage of the rainwater entering the shell 1 from the heat dissipation groove 101 to the power battery pack; the above process does not require user intervention, and even if the user is not present due to some reason, the heat dissipation groove 101 can be automatically closed.

[0030] In rainy days, only the rainwater falling on the water storage frame 2 near the shell 1 part will flow into the water storage cavity 201, the water storage speed is slow, the speed of closing the heat dissipation groove 101 is slow, a large amount of rainwater will enter the shell 1 from the heat dissipation groove 101 before the heat dissipation groove 101 is closed; in order to speed up the speed of closing the heat dissipation groove 101, the two water storage frames 2 are provided with inclined water receiving surfaces 202, the end of the water receiving surface 202 towards the shell 1 is lower when the water storage frame 2 is unfolded to be horizontal, so the water falling on the water receiving surface 202 will also flow into the water storage cavity 201, thereby speeding up the water storage speed, and further speeding up the rotation of the water storage frame 2 to be close to the shell 1, thereby closing the heat dissipation groove 101; and the water baffle 22 and the flow guide plate 23 are arranged on the upper side of the shell 1, the rainwater falling on the upper side of the shell 1 is blocked and guided by the water baffle 22 and the flow guide plate 23 to flow into the water storage cavity 201 on the water storage frame 2, thereby further speeding up the water storage speed, and further speeding up the rotation of the water storage frame 2 to be close to the shell 1 to close the heat dissipation groove 101.

[0031] After the water storage frame 2 is rotated to be close to the shell 1 to close the heat dissipation groove 101, the heat dissipation of the power battery group in the shell 1 will be affected; therefore, the T-shaped movable plate 21 is arranged on the water storage frame 2, when the water storage frame 2 is unfolded to be horizontal, the protruding part of the T-shaped movable plate 21 is in contact with the water storage frame 2, the T-shaped movable plate 21 closes the water outlet one 203, the lower part of the T-shaped movable plate 21 protrudes from the water storage frame 2, as shown in Figure 5 , the water storage cavity 201 can normally store water, when the water storage frame 2 is rotated to be close to the shell 1, the T-shaped movable plate 21 first contacts the shell 1, then the water storage frame 2 is rotated to be close to the shell 1, finally the water outlet one 203 coincides with the water outlet two 2101, as shown in Figure 6 , so the water in the water storage cavity 201 will flow out through the water outlet one 203 and the water outlet two 2101, at the same time, the rainwater falling on the upper side of the shell 1 is always supplemented into the water storage cavity 201 through the flow guide plate 23, so the water in the water storage cavity 201 is always in a flowing state, the heat emitted by the power battery group is radiated to the water storage frame 2, the heat on the water storage frame 2 is taken away by the flowing water, thereby achieving the heat dissipation effect of the power battery group; it is explained that compared with the water in a static state, the water in a flowing state can quickly take away the heat of the power battery group, and the heat dissipation effect is better; when the rain stops, the rainwater is no longer supplemented into the water storage cavity 201, after the water in the water storage cavity 201 flows out through the water outlet one 203 and the water outlet two 2101, under the action of the torsion spring rotating shaft between the water storage frame 2 and the shell 1, the water storage frame 2 is upwardly rotated to be unfolded to be horizontal, so that the heat dissipation groove 101 is opened, as shown in Figure 4 , so when the power battery group is used, the heat can be dissipated through the heat dissipation groove 101 to be removed, so as to maintain a stable working state; the heat dissipation groove 101 is automatically opened when it rains to stop, so that the power battery group can normally dissipate heat.

[0032] Example 2: Based on example 1, as shown, also includes a baffle 31; two water storage frame 2 respectively welded with a baffle 31, each baffle 31 is set to be inclined, the upper part of the baffle 31 is away from the water storage frame 2; Each baffle 31 is respectively provided with three grooves 3101. Figures 4-6

[0033] Also includes a heat-conducting metal plate 32; Each water storage frame 2 is respectively welded with three heat-conducting metal plates 32; All the heat-conducting metal plates 32 are located in the water storage cavity 201.

[0034] In the ice and snow environment, when the power battery pack is started, it is helpful to maintain the working efficiency because the closed structure can reduce the internal heat loss, delay the electrolyte thickening and internal resistance rising phenomenon caused by low temperature, and ensure the stability of output voltage and capacity; Therefore, when preparing to start the power battery pack, fill the snow or ice block into the water storage cavity 201, and set the baffle 31 to form an expanded V-shaped with the water storage frame 2, so that it is easier to fill the snow or ice block into the water storage cavity 201; Then pull out the bolt 3, under the gravity of the snow or ice block, the water storage frame 2 remains vertical state, abutting against the shell 1 to close the heat dissipation groove 101, which is helpful to maintain the working efficiency. As the power battery pack works, when the heat emitted by the power battery pack gradually increases, the heat is radiated to the water storage frame 2, and when the battery is abnormally overheated, the heat will cause the snow or ice block in the water storage cavity 201 to melt into water, and the melted water flows out from the water outlet one 203 and the water outlet two 2101. After the snow or ice block melts, under the action of the torsion spring shaft between the water storage frame 2 and the shell 1, the water storage frame 2 rotates upward to expand to a horizontal state, so that the heat dissipation groove 101 is opened to dissipate heat; Even if the user is not on site for some reason, when starting the power battery pack, the heat dissipation groove 101 is closed, which is helpful to maintain the working efficiency. After working for a period of time, the heat dissipation groove 101 is automatically opened to dissipate heat, avoiding damage caused by overheating of the power battery pack; It is explained that the baffle 31 is provided with grooves 3101, and the rainwater falling on the water receiving surface 202 flows into the water storage cavity 201 through the grooves 3101.

[0035] The heat-conducting metal plate 32 is arranged on the water storage frame 2, the heat-conducting metal plate 32 is located in the water storage cavity 201, and the heat-conducting metal plate 32 increases the contact area between the water storage frame 2 and the snow or ice block. When the power battery pack is overheated, the heat of the power battery pack is more quickly conducted to the snow or ice block, the melting of the snow or ice block is accelerated, and the opening speed of the heat dissipation groove 101 is accelerated, so that the power battery pack is quickly cooled, avoiding damage caused by overheating, and when closed in rainy days, the heat-conducting metal plate 32 also facilitates the contact of heat and rainwater, improves heat transfer, and improves the heat dissipation effect.

[0036] ​The above merely describes the preferred embodiments of the present application, and it should be pointed out that, for those skilled in the art, several improvements and refinements can be made without departing from the principles of the present application, and these improvements and refinements should also be considered as falling within the protection scope of the present application.
