[0002] When using power batteries for new energy vehicles, double or multiple layers of batteries are usually stacked in order to increase battery capacity and extend battery life. However, stacking double or multiple layers of batteries will increase the difficulty of heat dissipation in the battery pack.
[0003] In the related technology, taking a double-layer battery pack as an example, one solution is to set a cold plate between the two layers of batteries, wherein the battery cells of the lower battery are directly bonded to the cold plate through thermal conductive glue for heat conduction and heat dissipation, and the battery cells of the upper battery are first bonded to the pull plate through thermal conductive glue, and then the pull plate and the cold plate are bonded and fixed with thermal conductive glue.

[0037] The specific implementation of the present disclosure is described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It should be understood that the specific implementation described herein is only used to illustrate and explain the present disclosure, and is not used to limit the present disclosure.
[0038] In the present disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional words such as "horizontal, vertical, up and down direction" are used based on Figure 1The XYZ coordinate system is defined in , specifically, the X direction refers to the horizontal direction, the Y direction refers to the vertical direction, the Z direction refers to the up and down direction, and the side indicated by the arrow is the up side, and the opposite is the down side. In addition, the up and down directions also correspond to the gravity direction of the liquid cooling plate. In addition, the terms "first", "second", etc. used in the present disclosure are to distinguish one element from another, and do not have order and importance. In addition, in the following description, when referring to the drawings, unless otherwise explained, the same figure numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The above definitions are only used to explain and illustrate the present disclosure and should not be construed as limitations on the present disclosure.
[0039] In an exemplary embodiment of the present disclosure, a liquid cooling plate is provided, referring to Figures 1 to 10 As shown, the liquid cooling plate includes a flat plate 1, a flow channel plate 2 and a flow channel pull plate 3, the flow channel plate 2 is arranged between the flat plate 1 and the flow channel pull plate 3, wherein the flow channel pull plate 3 is connected to the upper side of the flow channel plate 2, and the flow channel pull plate 3 and the flow channel plate 2 form an upper flow channel 4, and the flat plate 1 is connected to the lower side of the flow channel plate 2, and the flat plate 1 and the flow channel plate 2 form a lower flow channel 5.
[0040] Through the above technical solution, when the liquid cooling plate is used, in one way, the flow channel pull plate 3 is connected to the upper side of the flow channel plate 2 to form an upper flow channel 4, and the flat plate 1 and the flow channel plate 2 form a lower flow channel 5. At this time, the flow channel pull plate 3 can be used as a bottom pull plate structure for the upper battery 7, and at the same time as a structure for surrounding the upper flow channel 4. In this way, the upper battery 7 can exchange heat with the liquid cooling plate only through a layer of thermal conductive glue; similarly, the flat plate 1 is used as a structure for surrounding the lower flow channel 5, so that the lower battery 8 can also exchange heat with the liquid cooling plate only through a layer of thermal conductive glue; in another way, the flat plate 1 and the flow channel plate 2 still form the lower flow channel 5, and the flow channel 5 is not formed. The channel pull plate 3 is directly attached and fixed on the upper side of the flow channel plate 2, that is, no heat conductive glue or other connecting structure is set between the flow channel pull plate 3 and the flow channel plate 2, and the flow channel pull plate 3 and the flow channel plate 2 are directly fixed by welding or other methods. At this time, the upper battery 7 also exchanges heat with the liquid cooling plate only through a layer of heat conductive glue. Therefore, such a setting can make the heat transfer thermal resistance of the upper battery 7 and the lower battery 8 consistent, and can avoid the temperature of the upper battery 7 being higher than the lower battery 8 when the battery pack is charged and discharged. Even if the temperature of the upper battery 7 and the lower battery 8 is consistent, it can avoid the occurrence of problems such as increased charging time, limited discharge power, and the performance of the lower battery 8 cannot be fully utilized. In addition, compared with the implementation of setting liquid cooling plates for the upper battery 7 and the lower battery 8 respectively, the setting of a single liquid cooling plate disclosed in the present invention can simultaneously achieve heat exchange with the upper battery 7 and the lower battery 8, thereby reducing the volume occupied by the liquid cooling plate on the battery pack, improving the volume utilization of the battery pack, and further improving the capacity of the battery.
[0041] In this disclosure, reference is made to Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the flow channel pull plate 3 and the flow channel plate 2 form an upper flow channel 4, and the flow channel plate 2 may be provided with a connecting hole 25, which connects the upper flow channel 4 and the lower flow channel 5. The upper flow channel 4 and the lower flow channel 5 are connected by the setting of the connecting hole 25, so as to form a circulation loop between the upper flow channel 4 and the lower flow channel 5. On the one hand, when in use, the upper flow channel 4 and the lower flow channel 5 can share a medium input port and output port. In this way, compared with setting an additional connecting hose to connect the upper flow channel 4 and the lower flow channel 5, the connecting hole 25 is provided in the flow channel plate 2 to reduce space occupancy and increase the volume utilization rate of the battery pack. On the other hand, it can also make the temperature of the cooling medium in the upper flow channel 4 and the lower flow channel 5 consistent, thereby making the temperature between the upper battery 7 and the lower battery 8 consistent during heat dissipation. Among them, reference Figure 4 As shown in the figure, the number of the connecting holes 25 can be multiple, and the multiple connecting holes 25 can include at least one first connecting hole 251 and at least one second connecting hole 252. The first connecting hole 251 is for the medium in the lower-layer flow channel 5 to flow into the upper-layer flow channel 4, and the second connecting hole 252 is for the medium in the upper-layer flow channel 4 to flow into the upper-layer flow channel 4. By setting a plurality of connecting holes 25, the circulation efficiency of the cooling medium between the upper-layer flow channel 4 and the lower-layer flow channel 5 can be accelerated, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. The specific number and setting position of the connecting holes 25 can be selected according to any suitable design according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not make any specific restrictions on this.

[0045] In the above three structures, the lower flow channel 5 is formed respectively through three different implementation methods. The lower flow channel 5 is formed between the flat plate 1 and the flow channel plate 2. Then the lower battery 8 is connected to the flat plate 1 through thermal conductive glue for heat dissipation. At this time, a layer of thermal conductive glue is separated between the lower battery 8 and the liquid cooling plate, so as to be consistent with the upper battery 7, ensuring that the heat dissipation thermal resistance of the upper battery 7 and the lower battery 8 are consistent.

The joint 6 may be provided with an inlet end and an outlet end for inputting and outputting the cooling medium. Since the lower-layer flow channel 5 is connected to the upper-layer flow channel 4 through the connecting hole 25, the cooling medium can be input into the upper-layer flow channel 4 and the lower-layer flow channel 5 by simply connecting the joint 6 to the lower-layer flow channel 5.
