Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of waterproofing, and in particular, to a waterproofing device and an energy storage device. Background Art

[0002] At present, in order to meet the needs of different environments and protect product equipment, waterproof strips are usually designed in the box to achieve a waterproof effect, so as to prevent the components of the product equipment from aging or rusting on the surface, thereby causing safety accidents.

[0003] However, after long-term use, the waterproof strip may gradually age, causing the joints to loosen and lose the waterproof effect. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of the problem that the waterproof rubber strips in the above-mentioned related technologies are prone to failure at the joints, resulting in poor waterproof performance, one of the purposes of the utility model is to provide a waterproof device and energy storage equipment, which have good waterproof effect.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, a first aspect of the present application is to provide a waterproof device.

[0006] A second aspect of the present application is to provide an energy storage device.

[0007] According to the first aspect of the present application, the present application proposes a waterproof device, which includes: a waterproof rubber strip, at least one end of which is provided with a plug-in groove; a flexible member, which is connected to the other end of the waterproof rubber strip and plugged into the plug-in groove.

[0008] In actual use, the waterproof strip is installed on the target component, and the two ends of the waterproof strip are connected by plugging the flexible part and the plug-in groove, so that a circumferentially closed waterproof device can be formed on the target component to prevent liquid from entering or leaving the target component from the waterproof device.

[0009] In the above technical solution, a flexible member is provided at the joint of the waterproof rubber strip to increase the strength of the joint, thereby avoiding failure of the joint and helping to improve the waterproof effect of the waterproof device.

[0010] In some technical solutions, the plug-in slot passes through the waterproof rubber strip along the length direction of the waterproof rubber strip. This not only facilitates the replacement of the flexible member, but also allows the waterproof rubber strip to be cut according to actual needs to obtain the required length of the waterproof rubber strip, thereby completing the installation of the waterproof device. Compared with the existing technology, which requires different types of waterproof rubber strips for different parts, this solution is more convenient and is conducive to improving the practicality of the waterproof device.

[0011] In some technical solutions, the flexible member and the waterproof rubber strip are made of the same material. Since the same material has reliable connection characteristics, the firmness of the connection between the waterproof rubber strip and the flexible member can be ensured, which is beneficial to improving the waterproof performance of the waterproof device.

[0012] In the second aspect of the present application, the present application proposes an energy storage device, which includes a waterproof device provided by any of the aforementioned technical solutions, thereby enabling the energy storage device to have all the beneficial effects disclosed in any of the aforementioned technical solutions, which will not be repeated here.

[0013] In some technical solutions, the energy storage device also includes: an integrated energy storage machine, which has a battery module and an inverter disposed therein; and a power pack connected to the integrated energy storage machine, which has a battery module disposed therein.

[0014] The energy storage device and the power pack both include: a box body with an opening; a cover plate installed at the opening to close the opening; and a waterproof device is provided on the contact surface between the box body and the cover plate. In this way, the components in the energy storage device and the power pack can be protected from corrosion.

[0015] In some technical solutions, the integrated energy storage device and the power pack also include a mounting plate; wherein mounting areas penetrating the box body are provided on opposite sides of the box body; the mounting plate is installed on the box body and closes the mounting area.

[0016] In actual applications, the energy storage device provides a mounting plate as the installation base of the device. Compared with the related technology of directly mounting the device on the box body, it can not only reduce the openings of the box body and avoid affecting the structure of the box body, but also facilitate the overall waterproofing treatment, which is beneficial to improving the waterproofing effect.

[0017] In some technical solutions, a waterproof device is provided on the contact surface between the mounting plate and the box body, so that a waterproof isolation is formed between the mounting plate and the box body to ensure that the components in the energy storage integrated machine and the components in the power pack are not corroded.

[0018] In some technical solutions, there are multiple power packs; the energy storage device and the power pack, and two adjacent power packs are connected and fixed by male and female connectors. In this way, the energy storage device can be expanded according to actual needs, which is more practical.

[0019] In the above technical solution, a female connector protection platform is provided on the outside of the female connector; a male connector protection platform is provided on the outside of the male connector; and waterproof devices are provided between the female connector protection platform and the female connector, and between the male connector protection platform and the male connector. In this way, the components in the energy storage integrated machine and the components in the power pack can be protected from corrosion.

[0020] In some technical solutions, the compression rate of the flexible parts corresponding to the waterproof devices between the mounting plate and the box body, between the female connector protection platform and the female connector, and between the male connector protection platform and the male connector is smaller than the compression rate of the flexible parts corresponding to the waterproof devices between the cover plate and the box body. In this way, failure of the waterproof devices can be avoided.

[0021] Additional aspects and advantages of the present application will become apparent in the following description or will be learned through practice of the present application. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0033] In order to more clearly understand the above-mentioned purposes, features and advantages of the present application, the present application is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods. It should be noted that the embodiments of the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.

[0034] In the following description, many specific details are set forth to facilitate a full understanding of the present application. However, the present application may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present application is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.

[0035] Combine the following Figures 1 to 7 , the waterproof device and energy storage device provided in the embodiments of the present application are described in detail through specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0036] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, some embodiments of the present application disclose a waterproof device 100 , the structure of which includes a waterproof rubber strip 110 and a flexible member 120 .

[0037] Specifically, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 One end of the waterproof rubber strip 110 is provided with an inserting groove 112. The flexible member 120 is connected to the other end of the waterproof rubber strip and is plugged and matched with the inserting groove 112.

[0038] In actual use, the waterproof strip 110 is installed on the target component, and the two ends of the waterproof strip 110 are connected by plugging the flexible member 120 and the plug-in groove 112, so that a circumferentially closed waterproof device 100 can be formed on the target component to prevent liquid from entering or leaving the target component from the waterproof device 100.

[0039] In the above embodiment, a flexible member 120 is provided at the joint of the waterproof rubber strip 110 to strengthen the strength of the joint of the waterproof rubber strip 110 , thereby avoiding failure of the waterproof rubber strip 110 and helping to improve the waterproof effect of the waterproof device 100 .

[0040] It is understandable that in some embodiments, both ends of the waterproof rubber strip 110 are provided with plug-in grooves 112, that is, the flexible member 120 and the other end of the waterproof rubber strip 110 are plug-in matched. This makes it easy to replace the flexible member 120, thereby meeting the requirements of the flexible member 120 in different environments and having better practicality.

[0041] In some embodiments, the plug slot 112 passes through the waterproof rubber strip 110 along the length direction of the waterproof rubber strip 110. In this way, during installation, it is only necessary to cut the waterproof rubber strip 110 according to actual needs to obtain the waterproof rubber strip 110 of the required length, thereby completing the installation of the waterproof device 100. Compared with the prior art, which selects different types of waterproof rubber strips at different locations, this solution is more convenient and is conducive to improving the practicality of the waterproof device 100.

[0042] In some embodiments, the waterproof rubber strip 110 and the flexible member 120 are made of the same material. Since the same material has reliable connection characteristics, the firmness of the connection between the waterproof rubber strip 110 and the flexible member 120 can be ensured, thereby facilitating the improvement of the waterproof performance of the waterproof device 100. For example, the material of the flexible member 120 is silica gel.

[0043] Reference Figure 4 Some embodiments of the present application also disclose an energy storage device 200 , whose structure includes an energy storage integrated machine 210 and a power pack 220 .

[0044] Specifically, a battery module and an inverter are provided in the energy storage integrated machine 210. The power pack 220 is connected to the energy storage integrated machine 210 and has a battery module provided therein.

[0045] In some embodiments, reference Figure 5 and Figure 7 The energy storage integrated machine 210 and the charging pack 220 both include a box body 211 and a cover plate 212. Specifically, the box body 211 is rectangular in shape and has an opening on its upper side; the cover plate 212 is disposed at the opening to close the opening. The waterproof device 100 is disposed on the contact surface between the cover plate 212 and the box body 211.

[0046] In some embodiments, the energy storage integrated machine 210 and the power pack 220 further include a mounting plate 213. Among them, the opposite sides of the box body 211 are provided with mounting areas that penetrate the box body 211; the mounting plate 213 is installed on the box body 211 and closes the mounting area. Among them, a waterproof device 100 is provided on the contact surface between the mounting plate 213 and the box body 211. In this way, by setting the mounting plate 213 as the installation basis of the device, compared with directly installing the device on the box body 211 in the related art, it can not only reduce the opening of the box body 211 and avoid affecting the structure of the box body 211, but also facilitate the overall waterproof treatment, which is conducive to improving the waterproof effect.

[0047] Reference Figure 6Considering that gaps are easily formed between the waterproof rubber strip 110 and the contact surface, which leads to poor waterproof effect, in some embodiments, the contact surfaces of the box body 211 and the cover plate 212, and the box body 211 and the mounting plate 213 are provided with positioning grooves 214 arranged in an annular shape; the waterproof device 100 is arranged in the positioning grooves 214. Therefore, the positioning grooves 214 play a role in positioning the waterproof device 100, thereby improving the waterproof performance of the energy storage device.

[0048] In some embodiments, the material of the box body 211 and the cover plate 212 is sheet metal. Sheet metal has the advantages of light weight, high strength and low cost. Therefore, the overall structural strength of the waterproof box can be guaranteed.

[0049] In the above embodiment, the mounting plate 213 is made of non-metallic material, which helps to achieve a lightweight design of the box; and non-metallic materials are not easy to rust. Exemplarily, the mounting plate 213 is made of plastic.

[0050] In the above embodiment, considering that non-metallic materials have lower strength than sheet metal, the compression rate of the flexible member 120 corresponding to the waterproof device 100 between the mounting plate 213 and the box body 211 is designed to be smaller than the compression rate of the flexible member 120 corresponding to the waterproof device 100 between the cover plate 212 and the box body 211. This design can avoid failure of the waterproof device 100.

[0051] In some embodiments, reference Figure 5 The energy storage integrated machine 210 and the power pack 220 are connected and fixed via male and female connectors 230 .

[0052] Specifically, a female connector protection platform 215 is provided at the bottom of the energy storage integrated machine 210, and a male connector protection platform 216 is provided at the top of the power pack 220 at the lower layer. Both the female connector protection platform 215 and the male connector protection platform 216 are boss structures, and a hollow groove is provided in the middle of the boss, which serves as the installation space for the male and female connectors 230. Among them, a waterproof device 100 is provided between the female connector protection platform 215 and the female connector, and between the male connector protection platform 216 and the male connector. In this way, the male connector protection platform 216 is nested inside the female connector protection platform 215, and the male connector protection platform 216 and the female connector protection platform 215 are both provided with a waterproof device 100, forming a waterproof isolation, thereby ensuring that the components in the energy storage integrated machine and the components in the power pack are not corroded.

[0053] In the above embodiment, the compression rate of the flexible member 120 corresponding to the waterproof device 100 between the female connector protection platform 215 and the female connector and between the male connector protection platform 216 and the male connector is designed to be smaller than the compression rate of the flexible member 120 corresponding to the waterproof device 100 between the cover plate 212 and the box body 211. This design can avoid failure of the waterproof device 100.

[0054] In some embodiments, there are multiple power packs 220, and the multiple power packs 220 are connected and fixed by male and female connectors 230. It can be understood that the multiple power packs 220 can be connected by the connection structure between the energy storage integrated machine 210 and the power pack 220 as described above to form waterproof isolation, thereby ensuring that the components in the power pack are not corroded.

[0055] In some embodiments, the integrated energy storage machine 210 and the power pack 220 are stacked up and down, and the bottom of the upper box body 211 is provided with a foot pad 217, and the top of the lower box body 211 is provided with a groove 218 that cooperates with the foot pad 217, so that the integrated energy storage machine 210 and the power pack 220 are combined into a structurally stable stacked structure.

[0056] Exemplarily, the energy storage device provided by the present application can be a balcony photovoltaic energy storage device, which can perform photoelectric conversion through photovoltaic panels and / or be charged by the mains, and can provide electrical energy for electrical equipment. The balcony photovoltaic energy storage device is relatively small and easy to carry and move. It can be moved according to the user's power demand, such as from the balcony to the garage or even outdoors. Since the use scenarios are in balconies, garages, outdoors, etc., it has high requirements for waterproofing. By adopting the balcony photovoltaic energy storage device provided by the present application, an IP65 waterproof rating can be achieved, which is practical.
