Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery aluminum shells, in particular to an aluminum shell for a power battery. Background Art
[0002] The aluminum shell of a power battery is a shell material used to wrap the power battery. Its main function is to protect the components inside the battery from damage by the external environment. It also has good thermal conductivity and electrical conductivity. Aluminum shells are usually lightweight, corrosion-resistant, high-strength and recyclable. They can meet the requirements of the power battery for the external environment during vehicle operation and can effectively extend the service life of the battery. There are at least the following disadvantages in the use of existing aluminum shells for power batteries: 1. Existing aluminum shells for power batteries often have heat dissipation fins on the outer surface to assist the battery in heat dissipation, but the heat dissipation effect of the fins is limited. Since the shell is a sealed structure, the temperature inside the shell will still rise, and additional fans are required for auxiliary heat dissipation. Therefore, we have launched an aluminum shell for a power battery. Utility Model Content
