Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the field of cylindrical batteries, and in particular relates to a large cylindrical battery pack cooling component with high-efficiency heat dissipation. Background Art
[0002] Cylindrical battery is a battery with high capacity, long cycle life and wide operating temperature range. It is widely used in solar lamps, lawn lamps, backup energy, power tools, toy models and photovoltaic energy. The high safety of cylindrical battery makes it the best carrier for both high energy and super fast charging. Among the current mainstream forms, cylindrical battery is the safest, which is mainly determined by the structural characteristics of its monomer and battery pack. The monomer is the smallest, which effectively disperses the risk; the separate shell protection and independent pressure relief device provide multiple protections; the battery cells are arranged in a honeycomb shape, and the gaps ensure a large enough heat exchange area between the monomer and the outside; more importantly, the central symmetry of the cylindrical battery cell can effectively restrain the expansion of the internal pole piece, so that the shape of the battery cell does not change throughout the life cycle. These enable it to support chemical systems with higher energy density, such as high nickel ternary positive electrode, silicon carbon negative electrode, etc., which are difficult to apply on parallel pole piece structures such as square and soft pack batteries.
[0003] The greater the energy of a battery cell, the more heat it generates when working. Due to the large number of battery cells in the battery pack and the high charging rate, its temperature consistency is difficult to control. There is an urgent need for a cooling component with uniform heat dissipation and high heat dissipation efficiency to improve the heating problem of the battery pack. Utility Model Content

[0007] Furthermore, the heat dissipation component includes a plurality of cooling plates arranged at intervals, wherein a cooling cavity for circulating a coolant is provided inside the cooling plates; and the cooling plates are connected through a plurality of connecting channels.
[0008] Furthermore, the cooling plate is a wave-shaped structure; the connecting channels are arc-shaped structures symmetrically arranged in groups of two; the connecting channels are connected to the cooling plate, and a plurality of fixed grooves for placing battery cells are formed in the heat dissipation component.
[0009] Furthermore, the liquid inlet is arranged in the middle of the top end surface of the cooling plate, and a cylindrical liquid inlet pipe is fixed on the liquid inlet.
[0010] Furthermore, the cooling plate has plate-like structures extending outward at both ends; liquid outlets are opened on the plate-like structures at both ends of the cooling plates located in the front and rear rows of the heat dissipation components; the cooling cavity in the cooling plate extends to the inside of the plate-like structure and is connected with the liquid outlet.
[0011] Furthermore, a cylindrical liquid outlet pipe is fixedly mounted on the liquid outlet.
[0012] Furthermore, through holes for the liquid outlet pipe to extend out are provided on both sides of the box body.
