[0030] The following will be combined with the implementation of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the implementation of the utility model. Obviously, the described implementation is only a part of the implementation of the utility model, not all of the implementations. Based on the implementation of the utility model, all other implementations obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 7 As shown, the support structure of the battery energy storage system of the utility model includes a support frame 1, a supporting beam 2, a water inlet pipeline 4 and a water outlet pipeline 5, wherein the support frame 1 is fixedly connected to one end of the supporting beam 2, and the supporting beam 2 is used to support the battery pack body 3 in the vertical direction, and the support frame 1 is used to support the supporting beam 2; the water inlet pipeline 4 and the water outlet pipeline 5 are both square tubes, and the water inlet pipeline 4 and the water outlet pipeline 5 are both arranged at one end of the supporting beam 2 away from the support frame 1, and the support frame 1 includes a plurality of support beams 11, and the bottom ends of the water inlet pipeline 4 and the water outlet pipeline 5 are located on the same horizontal plane as the bottom end of the support beam 11, and are used to support the supporting beam 2.

[0032] In a specific implementation, the water inlet pipeline 4 and the water outlet pipeline 5 are both steel pipes.

[0033] Figure 1 The X direction is the first direction.

[0034] By respectively arranging the water inlet pipe 4, the water outlet pipe 5 and the support frame 1 at the opposite ends of the supporting beam 2, when the battery pack body 3 is placed on the supporting beam 2, the support frame 1 can support the supporting beam 2 from one end of the supporting beam 2, while the other end of the supporting beam 2 is supported by the water inlet pipe 4 and the water outlet pipe 5. In this way, the cost of the support frame 1 that only supports one end of the supporting beam 2 is reduced. At the same time, since the water inlet pipe 4 and the water outlet pipe 5 play a supporting role simultaneously, the space utilization rate of the energy storage system can be increased, and the difficulty of design and installation is reduced.

[0035] As a preferred embodiment, a plurality of support beams 11 are equidistantly distributed in the first direction and are respectively inserted between two adjacent battery pack bodies 3 .

[0036] In a specific implementation, each support beam 11 is provided with supporting beams 2 on opposite sides in the first direction, so that there are multiple supporting beams 2, and the battery pack body 3 is supported on the supporting beams 2 on opposite sides of the two support beams 11. The battery pack body 3 is supported by the two supporting beams 2 from opposite sides in the first direction of the battery pack body 3, and while ensuring the support stability, the supporting beams 2 can also be designed to be smaller in size, thereby saving costs. The support beams 11 limit the distance between two adjacent battery pack bodies 3 by shielding the battery pack body 3.

[0037] As a preferred embodiment, the water outlet pipe 5 also includes a top limiting tube 52, which is connected to the bottom water outlet support tube 51 and is located at the top of the battery pack body 3, fits with the battery pack body 3, and the top limiting tube 52 extends in the first direction, and is located on the side of the water inlet pipe 4 close to the support frame 1.

[0038] With this design, the top limiting tube 52 can limit the battery pack body 3 located at the top to prevent the battery pack body 3 from moving upward, thereby facilitating the supporting processing of the battery pack body 3 and increasing the structural strength of the water outlet pipe 5, thereby increasing the supporting stability of the battery pack body 3.

[0039] As a preferred embodiment, the water inlet pipe 4 includes a bottom water inlet support pipe 41, and the water outlet pipe 5 includes a bottom water outlet support pipe 51. The bottom water inlet support pipe 41 and the bottom water outlet support pipe 51 are arranged parallel to each other and are both located below the battery pack body 3. The bottom water inlet support pipe 41 and the bottom water outlet support pipe 51 both extend in a first direction to both ends of the battery pack body 3 for supporting the supporting beam 2.

[0040] The water outlet pipeline 5 also includes a plurality of water outlet connecting pipes 53, which are all fixedly connected to one end of the supporting beam 2 away from the supporting beam 11, and are all connected to the top limiting pipe 52. The plurality of water outlet connecting pipes 53 extend in the height direction of the battery pack body 3 and are equidistantly distributed in the first direction. The water outlet connecting pipes 53 and the water inlet connecting pipe 42 are arranged parallel to each other.

[0041] With this design, when the supporting beam 2 is supported by the water inlet pipe 4 and the water outlet pipe 5, the water inlet connecting pipe 42 and the water outlet connecting pipe 53 can be shielded at the end of the battery pack body 3 away from the supporting frame 1, which can not only shield and limit the connection position of the battery pack body 3, but also increase the support stability of the battery pack body 3. By arranging that the water inlet connecting pipe 42 and the water outlet connecting pipe 53 are distributed in the first direction and extend in the height direction, the support stability of the battery pack body 3 is increased.

[0042] As a preferred embodiment, the water inlet connecting pipe 42 is connected to multiple water inlet pipes 43, and the water outlet connecting pipe 53 is connected to multiple water outlet pipes 54. The water inlet pipe 43 is connected to the water inlet pipe 31 on the battery pack body 3, and the water outlet pipe 54 is connected to the water outlet pipe 32 on the battery pack body 3.

[0043] The water inlet insert 43 and the water outlet insert 54 both extend toward the direction close to the battery pack body 3 . The water inlet insert 43 is plugged into the inner side of the water inlet pipe 31 , and the water outlet insert 54 is plugged into the inner side of the water outlet pipe 32 .

[0044] Specifically, when placing the battery pack body 3, the battery pack body 3 is placed on the top of the supporting beam 2 and pushed toward the direction close to the water inlet connecting pipe 42 and the water outlet connecting pipe 53. At this time, the battery pack body 3 moves forward in a straight line under the limit of the two supporting beams 11. When the battery pack body 3 moves to be fully supported, the water inlet plug 43 is automatically inserted into the inside of the water inlet pipe 31, and the water outlet plug 54 is automatically inserted into the inside of the water outlet pipe 32, thereby completing the pipeline connection processing of the battery pack body 3. During this period, external cooling water flows in from the bottom water inlet support tube 41 and flows into the inside of the water inlet connecting pipe 42, and flows into the battery pack body 3 pipeline through the water inlet plug 43 to cool the battery pack body 3. After cooling, the water is discharged from the water outlet pipe 32 and flows into the inside of the water outlet connecting pipe 53, and is discharged from the water outlet plug 54 through the top limit tube 52. By providing the water inlet insert 43 and the water outlet insert 54 to be plugged into the water inlet pipe 31 and the water outlet pipe 32 respectively, the plugging position of the battery pack body 3 can be positioned while achieving connectivity.

[0045] As a preferred embodiment, it also includes a plurality of reinforcing ribs 6, wherein the plurality of reinforcing ribs 6 are respectively arranged on the water inlet connecting pipe 42 and the water outlet connecting pipe 53, including a vertical rib 61 and a plurality of transverse ribs 62, and the plurality of transverse ribs 62 are all fixedly connected to the vertical ribs 61 and are vertically arranged relative to the vertical ribs 61.

[0046] With such a design, the supporting stability of the water inlet pipe 4 and the water outlet pipe 5 is increased under the support of the reinforcing ribs 6 .

[0047] As a preferred embodiment, it also includes a plurality of positioning bolts 7, wherein the plurality of positioning bolts 7 are respectively threadedly connected to each supporting beam 2 for plugging into threaded holes on the frame of the battery pack body 3.

[0048] Specifically, when the battery pack body 3 is placed on the supporting beam 2 and connected with the water inlet pipe 43 and the water outlet pipe 54 , the battery pack body 3 can be positioned by the positioning bolts 7 , thereby completing the supporting and storage processing of the battery pack body 3 .

[0049] The working principle of the utility model is introduced as follows:

[0050] The battery pack body 3 is supported on the top of the supporting beam 2, and the battery pack body 3 is pushed toward the direction close to the water inlet connecting pipe 42 and the water outlet connecting pipe 53. At this time, the water inlet plug 43 is automatically inserted into the inside of the water inlet pipe 31, and the water outlet plug 54 is automatically inserted into the inside of the water outlet pipe 32, thereby completing the pipeline connection processing of the battery pack body 3. The position of the battery pack body 3 is positioned by the positioning bolt 7, thereby completing the supporting connection processing of the battery pack body 3. During this period, the external cooling water flows from the bottom water inlet support pipe 41 and flows into the inside of the water inlet connecting pipe 42, and flows into the battery pack body 3 pipeline through the water inlet plug 43 to cool the battery pack body 3. After cooling, the water is discharged from the water outlet pipe 32 and flows into the inside of the water outlet connecting pipe 53, and is discharged from the water outlet plug 54 through the top limit pipe 52, completing the cooling water supply. The battery pack body 3 is supported by the bottom water inlet support pipe 41, the bottom water outlet support pipe 51 and the support beam 11.
