Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of lithium battery modules, in particular to a lithium battery module with automatically adjustable spacing. Background Art

[0002] The world's energy and environmental protection situation is becoming increasingly tense. Batteries are becoming more and more popular as a power source. Lithium batteries have gradually become the first choice in the battery field due to their significant advantages such as high energy density, small size, light weight, environmental protection, no pollution, and no memory effect. A lithium battery pack refers to a battery pack with one or more lithium cells connected in parallel or series with specific functional output.

[0003] However, most lithium battery modules currently have the following problems:

[0004] 1. In existing lithium battery modules, the distance between lithium batteries is mostly uniform during operation. The short distance easily leads to heat accumulation in the battery, resulting in low heat dissipation efficiency. Long-term exposure to high temperature easily leads to short circuit damage of the battery pack, and it is inconvenient to automatically adjust the distance between the battery packs for heat dissipation.

[0005] Second, the existing lithium battery modules are mostly installed in a box for protection when in use. In order to ensure the firmness of the box during protection, they are mostly installed with multiple bolts. If the lithium battery module in the box is damaged and needs to be repaired and maintained, it is troublesome to disassemble the box, and the efficiency is low, and it is inconvenient to disassemble and open the box conveniently.

[0006] Therefore, we made improvements to this problem and proposed a lithium battery module with automatic spacing adjustment. Utility Model Content

[0007] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the current problems of automatically adjusting the distance between battery packs to dissipate heat and conveniently dismantling and opening the box.

[0008] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0009] A lithium battery module with automatically adjusted spacing is used to improve the above problems.

[0010] The specific application is as follows:

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present application, the first springs are equidistantly distributed on the clamping plate, and the side end surface of the clamping plate is in contact with the inner side surface of the mounting plate.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] In the scheme of this application:

[0019] 1. Through the threaded rod, when the lithium battery pack reaches high temperature, the temperature can be transmitted to the memory metal through the heat conduction plate. When the memory metal is stimulated to expand by the high temperature, the memory metal can push the rack to move. When the rack moves, it can drive the connecting shaft to rotate through the transmission gear. When the connecting shaft rotates, it can drive the second bevel gear to rotate through the first bevel gear. When the second bevel gear rotates, it can drive the threaded rod to rotate. When the threaded rod rotates, it can drive the pushing block to move.

[0035] Embodiment 2:

[0036] The solution in Example 1 is further introduced below in combination with a specific working method, as described below:

[0037] like Figure 3 As shown, as a preferred embodiment, on the basis of the above-mentioned method, further, the first springs 3 are evenly distributed on the clamp plate 4, and the side end surface of the clamp plate 4 is in contact with the inner side surface of the mounting plate 2, which can ensure that the multiple first springs 3 can smoothly push the clamp plate 4 to move, so as to push the lithium battery pack 5 through the clamp plate 4 to move and limit.

[0038] like Figure 4 As shown, as a preferred implementation, on the basis of the above-mentioned method, further, the memory metal 7 is symmetrically distributed on the left and right sides of the heat conduction plate 6, and the memory metal 7 corresponds one-to-one with the transmission gear 9 through the rack 8, which can ensure that the distance between the lithium battery packs 5 can be smoothly adjusted under the drive of the transmission gears 9 on both sides, so as to achieve real-time cooling.

[0042] Specifically, when the lithium battery module with automatic spacing adjustment is used: Figure 1-6When protecting the lithium battery pack 5 in use, the lithium battery pack 5 can be placed on the mounting plate 2 in the protective shell 1, and the lithium battery pack 5 pushes the clamping plate 4 to squeeze the first spring 3. Under the push of the first spring 3, the clamping plate 4 can be driven to clamp the lithium battery pack 5. When protection is needed, the block 15 on the cover plate 14 is inserted into the protective shell 1. When the block 15 moves down, it can push the stopper 18 to move through the inclined surface. When the stopper 18 moves, it can push the limit plate 17 to move. When the limit plate 17 moves, it can squeeze the second spring 16. After the block 15 moves to the bottom, the block 18 is not hindered by the push of the second spring 16. The stopper 18 on the limit plate 17 is driven to reset.

When the first bevel gear 10 rotates, it can drive the threaded rod 12 to rotate through the second bevel gear 11. When the threaded rod 12 rotates, it can push the pushing block 13 to move, and the two sides push When the blocks 13 move outward at the same time, the pushing block 13 can push the lithium battery pack 5 to move. When the lithium battery pack 5 moves, it can squeeze the first spring 3 through the clamping plate 4 to expand the distance between the lithium battery packs 5 and increase the distance between them for heat dissipation. When the temperature drops, the memory metal 7 is rolled up and reset to drive the rack 8 to reset at the same time.
