Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of automobiles, in particular to a collision monitoring device, a battery pack and an automobile. Background Art
[0002] The battery pack of an electric vehicle is usually placed at the bottom of the vehicle.

[0043] The utility model provides a collision monitoring device 100, which is used for a battery pack. The battery pack is often installed at the bottom of a car and serves as a power battery of the car.
[0044] See also Figures 1 to 4 In one embodiment of the present utility model, the collision monitoring device 100 includes:
[0045] A buffer 1 is provided on the battery pack and is located on a side of the battery pack facing the ground;
[0046] a first conductive member 2 and a first monitoring position 21, wherein the first conductive member 2 is laid on the buffer member 1, and the first monitoring position 21 is electrically connected to the first conductive member 2, so that the monitor can monitor the first conductive member 2; and
[0047] The second conductive member 3 and the second monitoring position 31, the second conductive member 3 is laid on the buffer member 1, the second monitoring position 31 is electrically connected to the second conductive member 3, so that the monitor can monitor the second conductive member 3, and the second conductive member 3 and the first conductive member 2 are arranged at intervals along the thickness direction of the buffer member 1, and at least partially overlap along the thickness direction of the buffer member 1;
[0048] When the battery pack is impacted, the buffer member 1 is squeezed to electrically connect the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 , or to disconnect the first conductive member 2 and / or the second conductive member 3 .
[0049] Specifically, the buffer 1 can be arranged on the inner side of the bottom of the battery pack, or on the outer side of the bottom of the battery pack, which can not only provide a buffering effect when the battery pack encounters an external impact, but also provide for the installation of the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3. The first conductive member 2 is laid on the buffer 1, that is, the first conductive member 2 is configured as a long strip structure with a length greater than the width, and the bending disk is arranged on the buffer 1 to cover the buffer 1, or the first conductive member 2 is configured as a sheet structure to be laid on the buffer 1. The first monitoring position 21 is electrically connected to the first conductive member 2, and the operator monitors the voltage or current changes at the first monitoring position 21 through the monitor, and then monitors the voltage or current changes on the first conductive member 2. Therefore, the first monitoring position 21 is electrically connected to the output end of the first conductive member 2 through a conductive material such as a wire or a conductive member, and can also be directly arranged on the first conductive member 2, that is, the monitor is directly connected to the first conductive member 2.
[0050] The second conductive member 3 is laid on the buffer member 1, that is, the second conductive member 3 is configured as a long strip structure with a length greater than a width, and the bending plate is arranged on the buffer member 1 to cover the buffer member 1, or the second conductive member 3 is configured as a sheet structure to be laid on the buffer member 1. The second monitoring position 31 is electrically connected to the second conductive member 3, and the operator monitors the voltage or current change at the second monitoring position 31 through the monitor, and then monitors the voltage or current change on the second conductive member 3. Therefore, the second monitoring position 31 is electrically connected to the output end of the second conductive member 3 through a conductive material such as a wire or a conductive member, and can also be directly arranged on the second conductive member 3, that is, the monitor is directly connected to the second conductive member 3.
[0051] The second conductive member 3 and the first conductive member 2 are spaced apart in the thickness direction of the buffer member 1, that is, in the normal state (the battery pack is not impacted), the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 are independent of each other and are not electrically connected. The voltage and current of the first monitoring position 21 and the second monitoring position 31 detected by the monitor are constant and do not change. When the battery pack is impacted, the buffer member 1 is squeezed. If the impact force is small, the distance between the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 may be shortened until contact occurs. The first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 are electrically connected, which will inevitably cause the voltage and / or current of the first monitoring position 21 and / or the second monitoring position 31 detected by the monitor to change. At this time, the monitor can determine that it is a low-energy impact; if the impact force is large, the buffer member 1 may be damaged, and then the first conductive member 2 and / or the second conductive member 3 may be damaged, resulting in a circuit break, causing the voltage and current of the first monitoring position 21 and / or the second monitoring position 31 detected by the monitor to disappear. At this time, the monitor can determine that it is a high-energy impact. Therefore, the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 are at least partially overlapped in the thickness direction of the buffer member 1, thereby ensuring that the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 can contact each other during low-energy impact.
[0052] The thickness direction of the buffer 1 is the thickness direction of the battery pack, that is, the height direction of the car. In order to ensure that the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 can contact smoothly under the extrusion of the buffer 1, in one embodiment, the buffer 1 is provided with a plurality of avoidance holes, which are arranged between the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3, so as to avoid contact between the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3.
[0053] In the embodiment of the present utility model, a plurality of conductive protrusions 22 are provided at intervals on the first conductive member 2;
[0054] When the battery pack is impacted, the conductive protrusion 22 passes through the buffer member 1 and abuts against the second conductive member 3 , so that the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 are electrically connected.
[0055] Specifically, the conductive protrusion 22 is at least arranged toward the second conductive member 3 , so that under the extrusion of the buffer member 1 , the conductive protrusion 22 can pierce the buffer member 1 and directly contact the second conductive member 3 to facilitate the electrical connection between the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 .
[0056] Furthermore, the end of the conductive protrusion 22 away from the first conductive member 2 is set in a pointed shape, thereby further facilitating the conductive protrusion 22 to pierce the buffer member 1 and directly contact the second conductive member 3 to facilitate the electrical connection between the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3, and the pointed setting can increase the friction force when the conductive protrusion 22 contacts the second conductive member, thereby ensuring stable contact between the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3.
[0057] In the embodiment of the utility model, the outer periphery of the first conductive member 2 is provided with an insulating sleeve, and the insulating sleeve has a plurality of exposed portions that expose the first conductive member 2. That is, the first conductive member 2 can be configured as a wire structure, and a plurality of exposed portions are provided on the wire structure, so that the conductive material in the wire structure is exposed, thereby facilitating the conductive connection between the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3, and the conductive protrusion 22 can be correspondingly provided at the exposed portion. Of course, in other embodiments, the first conductive member 2 is configured as a conductive sheet or a conductive film.
[0058] Preferably, if the first conductive member 2 can be configured as a wire structure, the second conductive member 3 can be configured as a conductive sheet or a conductive film, it is convenient for arranging the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 and for electrically connecting the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 .
[0059] Correspondingly, if the first conductive member 2 is configured as a conductive sheet or a conductive film, an insulating sleeve is provided on the outer periphery of the second conductive member 3 , and the insulating sleeve has a plurality of exposed portions that expose the second conductive member 3 .
[0060] See also Figures 1 to 3In an embodiment of the utility model, the first conductive member 2 is disposed in the buffer member 1, and the second conductive member 3 is disposed on the surface of the buffer member 1, thereby facilitating the installation of the second conductive member 3 and ensuring the fixing stability of the first conductive member 2.
[0061] In another embodiment of the present invention, the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 are disposed on two opposite surfaces of the buffer member 1, thereby facilitating the arrangement of the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3.
[0062] In another embodiment of the present invention, the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 are arranged at intervals in the buffer member 1, thereby ensuring the fixing stability of the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3. That is, in this solution, the fixing position and method of the first conductive member 2 and the second conductive member 3 on the buffer member 1 are not limited, as long as they can be arranged at intervals along the thickness direction of the buffer member 1, they are within the protection scope of this solution.
[0063] See also Figure 4 In an embodiment of the present utility model, the collision monitoring device 100 further includes a third conductive member 4 and a third monitoring position, and the third monitoring position and the third conductive member 4 are electrically connected so that the monitor can monitor the third conductive member 4;
[0064] The buffer 1 includes a first buffer 111 and a second buffer 121 stacked on each other, the first conductive member 2 is sandwiched between the first buffer 111 and the second buffer 121, the second conductive member 3 is arranged on the side of the first buffer 111 away from the first conductive member 2, the third conductive member 4 is arranged on the side of the second buffer 121 away from the first conductive member 2, and the thickness of the first buffer 111 is not equal to the thickness of the second buffer 121, or the first buffer 111 and the second buffer are made of different materials.
[0065] Specifically, the first buffer 111 and the second buffer 121 are stacked on each other, and the first conductive member 2 is sandwiched between the two, so as to facilitate the installation of the first conductive member 2. The second conductive member 3 and the third conductive member 4 are arranged on opposite sides of the first conductive member 2. When the first buffer 111 and the second buffer 121 are squeezed, the second conductive member 3 and the third conductive member 4 contact the first conductive member 2 respectively, and because the thickness of the first buffer 111 is not equal to the thickness of the second buffer 121, that is, the distance from the second conductive member 3 to the first conductive member 2 is not equal to the distance from the third conductive member 4 to the first conductive member 2, or the first buffer 111 and the second buffer are made of different materials (that is, the hardness of the two is different), a time difference is generated when the second conductive member 3 and the third conductive member 4 contact the first conductive member 2 respectively, and the impact speed of the impact load on the battery pack can be calculated accordingly, and then the impact strength can be obtained.
[0066] In other embodiments, the second conductive member 3 is disposed in the first buffer member 111, and the third conductive member 4 is disposed in the second buffer member 121. At this time, if the material of the first buffer member 111 is the same as the material of the second buffer member 121, the distance from the second conductive member 3 to the first conductive member 2 is not equal to the distance from the third conductive member 4 to the first conductive member 2, so that a time difference is generated when the second conductive member 3 and the third conductive member 4 respectively contact the first conductive member 2.
[0067] Taking the case where the thickness of the first buffer component 111 is not equal to the thickness of the second buffer component 121 as an example, the time difference generated when the second conductive component 3 and the third conductive component 4 respectively contact the first conductive component 2 is △t, and the thickness difference between the first buffer component 111 and the second buffer component 121 is △d, and the impact speed of the impact load on the battery pack is obtained to be △v=△d / △t.
[0068] The third conductive member 4 is laid on the second buffer member 121, that is, the third conductive member 4 is configured as a long strip structure with a length greater than a width, and the bending plate is arranged on the second buffer member 121 to cover the second buffer member 121, or the third conductive member 4 is configured as a sheet structure to be laid on the second buffer member 121. The third monitoring position is electrically connected to the third conductive member 4, and the operator monitors the voltage or current change at the third monitoring position through the monitor, and then monitors the voltage or current change on the third conductive member 4. Therefore, the third monitoring position is electrically connected to the output end of the third conductive member 4 through a conductive material such as a wire or a conductive member, and can also be directly arranged on the third conductive member 4, that is, the monitor is directly connected to the third conductive member 4.
[0069] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In an embodiment of the utility model, there are multiple first conductive members 2, and the multiple first conductive members 2 extend back and forth along the first direction and are arranged at intervals along the second direction. The multiple first conductive members 2 are electrically connected to the first monitoring position 21, and the first direction and the second direction are set at an angle.
[0070] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the first direction is the direction indicated by the arrow X, and the second direction is the direction indicated by the arrow Y. The plurality of first conductive members 2 extend back and forth along the first direction, thereby covering the buffer member 1 along the first direction X, and the plurality of first conductive members 2 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, thereby covering the buffer member 1 along the second direction Y. Therefore, no matter any position of the buffer member 1 is squeezed, the voltage or current of the first monitoring position 21 can be triggered to change. In other embodiments, only one first conductive member 2 may be provided, and in this case, the first conductive member 2 extends back and forth along the first direction and is arranged in the second direction.
[0071] And the buffer 1 may be provided with only one first monitoring position 21, so as to facilitate monitoring, in which case multiple first conductive members 2 may be connected in parallel or in series with the first monitoring position 21. In other embodiments, the buffer 1 may also be provided with multiple first monitoring positions 21, in which case multiple first conductive members 2 may be connected in parallel or in series, or multiple first conductive members 2 may be provided independently of each other, and in which case any one of the multiple first monitoring positions 21 generates a current or voltage change, and it can be determined that the battery pack is impacted.
[0072] When multiple first conductive members 2 are connected in parallel with the first monitoring position 21, in the embodiment of the present utility model, the first monitoring position 21 is electrically connected to the multiple first conductive members 2 through the first energized wire 23, and the multiple first conductive members 2 are connected in parallel with the first energized wire 23. This facilitates the electrical connection between the multiple first conductive members 2 and the first monitoring position 21, and in this design form, when the battery pack is subjected to an impact load and needs to be repaired, the user can determine the impact position of the impact load according to the disconnection position of the first conductive member 2, thereby facilitating the repair.
[0073] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 In another embodiment of the utility model, the number of the second conductive members 3 is multiple, and the multiple second conductive members 3 extend back and forth along the first direction and are arranged at intervals along the second direction, and the multiple second conductive members 3 are electrically connected to the second monitoring position 31, and the first direction and the second direction are set at an angle.
[0074] Specifically, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the plurality of second conductive members 3 extend back and forth along the first direction, thereby covering the buffer member 1 along the first direction X, and the plurality of second conductive members 3 are arranged at intervals along the second direction, thereby covering the buffer member 1 along the second direction Y, so that no matter which position of the buffer member 1 is squeezed, the voltage or current of the second monitoring position 31 can be triggered to change. In other embodiments, only one second conductive member 3 may be provided, in which case the second conductive member 3 extends back and forth along the first direction and is arranged in the second direction.
[0075] And the buffer 1 may be provided with only one second monitoring position 31, so as to facilitate monitoring, in which case multiple second conductive members 3 may be connected in parallel or in series with the second monitoring position 31. In other embodiments, the buffer 1 may also be provided with multiple second monitoring positions 31, in which case multiple second conductive members 3 may be connected in parallel or in series, or multiple second conductive members 3 may be provided independently of each other, and in which case any one of the multiple second monitoring positions 31 generates a current or voltage change, and it can be determined that the battery pack is impacted.
[0076] When multiple second conductive members 3 are connected in parallel with the second monitoring position 31, in the embodiment of the utility model, the second monitoring position 31 is electrically connected to the multiple second conductive members 3 through the second energized wire 32, and the multiple second conductive members 3 are connected in parallel with the second energized wire 32. This facilitates the electrical connection between the multiple second conductive members 3 and the second monitoring position 31, and in this design form, when the battery pack is subjected to an impact load and needs to be repaired, the user can determine the impact position of the impact load according to the disconnection position of the second conductive member 3, thereby facilitating the repair.
[0077] The utility model also proposes a battery pack, which includes a collision monitoring device 100. The specific structure of the collision monitoring device 100 refers to the above-mentioned embodiment. Since the battery pack adopts all the technical solutions of all the above-mentioned embodiments, it at least has all the beneficial effects brought by the technical solutions of the above-mentioned embodiments, which will not be repeated here. Among them, it is arranged in the battery pack and is located on the side of the battery pack facing the ground. That is, the collision monitoring device 100 can be arranged on the inner side of the bottom of the battery pack, or on the outer side of the bottom of the battery pack, such as being arranged to fit the outer surface of the bottom of the shell.
[0078] In an embodiment of the utility model, the battery pack includes a shell, and a battery module disposed in the shell, and the collision monitoring device 100 is disposed between the battery module and the bottom of the shell. That is, the collision monitoring device 100 is disposed inside the battery pack and between the battery module and the bottom of the shell, so that the electrical connection of the collision monitoring device 100 is convenient and the structural integrity of the battery pack is improved. To a certain extent, the accuracy of the collision monitoring device 100 can also be improved. For example, when the bottom of the shell is only slightly scratched (the strength is not enough to deform the battery shell), and the normal function of the battery pack is not affected, if the collision monitoring device 100 is disposed in the battery pack, the collision monitoring device 100 is not impacted and no warning is issued. If the collision monitoring device 100 is disposed outside the battery pack, the collision monitoring device 100 may be impacted, causing it to issue a false warning.
