[0029] The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. The embodiments of the present utility model are described in detail below.

[0030] Reference below Figure 1-Figure 3 A transport device 100 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described.

[0031] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the transport device 100 according to the utility model may mainly include: a battery transport compartment 10, in which a receiving space 11 is provided, the battery transport compartment 10 is suitable for receiving batteries 70, and dry gas is introduced into the receiving space 11.

[0032] Specifically, the storage space 11 of the battery transport bin 10 is suitable for accommodating the battery 70 and is provided with a management system, so that the whole can constitute the energy storage battery system 80. When the manufacturing site and the use site of the energy storage battery system 80 are far apart, the energy storage battery system 80 needs to be loaded onto the transport device 100 for transportation.

[0033] During transportation, due to changes in ambient temperature, condensation may occur in the storage space 11 of the battery transport bin 10. Since the battery transport bin 10 complies with the IP55 rating, the condensation generated during transportation cannot be effectively and timely discharged. Thus, the condensation in the storage space 11 may cause problems such as corrosion of the mechanism and reduced insulation, thereby affecting the reliable operation of the energy storage battery system 80, causing safety hazards and reducing the service life.

[0034] By passing dry gas into the accommodation space 11, the air containing moisture in the accommodation space 11 can be discharged, so that the accommodation space 11 is filled with dry air, so that the accommodation space 11 is always in a dry state. In this way, even if the external environment changes, condensation will not occur in the accommodation space 11, so that passive anti-condensation without external power supply during transportation can be achieved, and the anti-condensation effect is better, thereby effectively solving the condensation problem caused by changes in environmental conditions during transportation, and ensuring the safety of the energy storage battery system 80 during transportation.

[0035] Optionally, after dry gas is introduced into the accommodating space 11, adhesive strips can be affixed to the gaps of the battery transport bin 10 for sealing, and the entire battery transport bin 10 can be sealed using relevant packaging film packaging to prevent the dry gas from overflowing, thereby further preventing the generation of condensation in the accommodating space 11 and further ensuring the safety of the energy storage battery system 80 during transportation.

[0036] Therefore, by passing dry gas into the accommodating space 11, the accommodating space 11 can be in a dry state, so that the anti-condensation effect can be better, and the condensation problem caused by changes in environmental conditions during transportation can be effectively solved, thereby ensuring the safety of the energy storage battery system 80 during transportation.

[0037] Combination Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the transport device 100 may further include a dry gas cylinder 20 , in which dry gas is provided. The dry gas cylinder 20 is selectively connected to the accommodating space 11 .

[0038] Specifically, by setting dry gas in the dry gas cylinder 20 and selectively connecting the dry gas cylinder 20 with the accommodating space 11 , the dry gas can be selectively introduced into the accommodating space 11 by controlling the communication relationship between the dry gas cylinder 20 and the accommodating space 11 .

[0039] Specifically, when the gas pressure in the storage space 11 is too low, the dry gas cylinder 20 can be connected to the storage space 11 to input dry gas into the storage space 11, and when the gas pressure in the storage space 11 is too high, the dry gas cylinder 20 can be disconnected from the storage space 11 to stop inputting dry gas into the storage space 11.

[0040] In this way, not only can the dry gas be introduced into the accommodation space 11 conveniently, but also the amount of the dry gas introduced into the accommodation space 11 can be conveniently controlled, thereby improving the reliability of the transportation device 100 .

[0041] It should be noted that, considering that during transportation, in order to ensure the safety of the energy storage battery system 80, the energy storage battery system 80 is in a power-off and closed state, by setting a dry gas cylinder 20, the dry gas cylinder 20 can selectively introduce dry gas into the accommodating space 11 without an external power supply, thereby realizing passive anti-condensation without the need for an external power supply during transportation. Therefore, under the premise of ensuring the safety of the energy storage battery system 80 during transportation, the scenario requirements of power-off transportation of the energy storage battery system 80 can be met, and there is no need to set up an additional power supply, which can make the transportation device 100 simpler and more reliable.

[0042] Furthermore, after the dry gas in the dry gas cylinder 20 is exhausted, the dry gas can be refilled into the dry gas cylinder 20, so that the dry gas cylinder 20 can be recycled, the use cost can be reduced, and the environmental friendliness can be improved.

[0043] The dry gas may be dry air. On the one hand, the dry air is relatively cheap, which can reduce the use cost. On the other hand, the dry gas is harmless to the environment, which can ensure the environmental friendliness of the transport device 100. Of course, the dry gas may also be other gases, which are not specifically limited here.

[0044] The air pressure in the storage space 11 is set to P1, and the atmospheric pressure outside the battery transport bin 10 is set to P2. P1 and P2 satisfy the relationship: P1>P2. Specifically, by setting the air pressure in the storage space 11 to be greater than the atmospheric pressure outside the battery transport bin 10, the storage space 11 can be placed in a positive pressure state, thereby preventing external humid air from entering the storage space 11, ensuring the dry state of the storage space 11, and effectively solving the condensation problem in the storage space 11 caused by changes in environmental conditions during transportation, and improving the safety of the energy storage battery system 80 during transportation.

[0045] Furthermore, P1 and P2 satisfy the relationship: 5Kpa≤P1-P2≤10Kpa. Specifically, when the difference between the air pressure in the accommodation space 11 and the outside atmospheric pressure is less than 5Kpa, the humid air in the outside world may still enter the accommodation space 11. When the difference between the air pressure in the accommodation space 11 and the outside atmospheric pressure is greater than 10Kpa, the battery 70 in the accommodation space 11 may be deformed. By setting the difference between the air pressure in the accommodation space 11 and the outside atmospheric pressure within a reasonable range, not only can the dry state in the accommodation space 11 be ensured, condensation in the accommodation space 11 can be reliably and effectively prevented, but also the deformation of the battery 70 in the accommodation space 11 can be prevented, thereby ensuring the normal operation of the energy storage battery system 80.

[0046] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the transport device 100 may further include: a fire-fighting pipe 30 , the fire-fighting pipe 30 is connected to the accommodating space 11 , and the dry gas cylinder 20 is connected to the fire-fighting pipe 30 .

[0047] Specifically, in order to ensure the safety of the energy storage battery system 80 during use, the battery transport compartment 10 is also provided with a fire-fighting pipe 30, and the fire-fighting pipe 30 is connected to the accommodating space 11, so that the fire-fighting gas cylinder can be connected to the fire-fighting pipe 30 to ensure the fire safety of the energy storage battery system 80 during use.

[0048] During transportation, the dry gas cylinder 20 is connected to the fire-fighting pipe 30, so that the original fire-fighting pipe 30 of the battery transport bin 10 can be fully utilized, and the dry gas can be introduced into the storage space 11 through the fire-fighting pipe 30. Therefore, under the premise of ensuring the anti-condensation of the storage space 11, there is no need to modify the battery transport bin 10 or even the transport device 100, which can make the assembly of the transport device 100 easier.

[0049] Among them, the fire-fighting pipe 30 can mainly include a main pipe 31 and a branch pipe 32. The main pipe 31 is arranged on the top of the battery transport bin 10, one end of the branch pipe 32 is connected to the main pipe 31, and the other end of the branch pipe 32 is connected to the accommodating space 11, and the branch pipe 32 is arranged in plurality, and the plurality of branch pipes 32 are arranged at intervals.

[0050] It should be noted that, since the energy storage battery system 80 is in a low power and power-off state during transportation, on the one hand, the risk of fire in the energy storage battery system 80 is extremely low, and on the other hand, the fire protection system cannot be started in a power-off state. That is, during transportation, under the premise of using the fire protection pipe 30 to prevent condensation, the fire protection safety performance of the energy storage battery system 80 during transportation will not be affected.

[0051] As shown in the figure, the transport device 100 may further include: a connecting hose 60, and the connecting hose 60 is connected between the fire-fighting pipe 30 and the dry gas cylinder 20. Specifically, by connecting the connecting hose 60 between the fire-fighting pipe 30 and the dry gas cylinder 20, the connecting hose 60 can adapt to the distance requirements and space requirements between the fire-fighting pipe 30 and the dry gas cylinder 20 under different transportation conditions, and can facilitate the arrangement of the dry gas cylinder 20.

[0052] Combination Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the transport device 100 may further include: a pressure reducing valve 40, which is connected between the containing space 11 and the dry gas cylinder 20 to selectively control the communication between the containing space 11 and the dry gas cylinder 20. Specifically, the pressure reducing valve 40 is a valve device specially used to adjust and control the gas pressure, and its main function is to stably reduce the higher inlet pressure upstream to the required, safe and suitable outlet pressure downstream in the gas delivery system.

[0053] By connecting the pressure reducing valve 40 between the storage space 11 and the dry gas cylinder 20, a corresponding set air pressure value is set in the pressure reducing valve 40. When the air pressure in the storage space 11 is lower than the set air pressure value, the dry gas can pass into the storage space 11 through the pressure reducing valve 40 to ensure that the storage space 11 is always filled with dry gas during transportation. When the air pressure in the storage space 11 is higher than the set air pressure value, the pressure reducing valve 40 stops supplying gas to avoid deformation of the battery 70 and its interior due to excessive air pressure in the storage space 11.

[0054] In this way, by setting the pressure reducing valve 40, the amount of dry gas input into the storage space 11 can be controlled, so that the storage space 11 is always filled with dry gas, and the air pressure in the storage space 11 is maintained within a reasonable range, thereby preventing external humid air from entering the storage space 11 during transportation, and effectively preventing the generation of condensation.

[0055] Combination Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, the transport device 100 may further include: an air pressure alarm device 50, which is connected to the dry gas cylinder 20. Specifically, the air pressure alarm device 50 is a device for monitoring and warning whether the gas pressure in a specific system is within a preset safety range. By connecting the air pressure alarm device 50 to the dry gas cylinder 20, a corresponding warning air pressure value is set in the air pressure alarm device 50. When the air pressure in the dry gas cylinder 20 is lower than the warning air pressure value, the air pressure alarm device 50 can issue a corresponding alarm, thereby reminding the driver to replace the dry gas cylinder 20 or replenish dry gas in time, thereby ensuring that dry gas can be filled into the storage space 11 when needed to prevent condensation in the storage space 11.

[0056] Furthermore, the air pressure alarm device 50 may mainly include an air pressure alarm and an air pressure sensor. By connecting the air pressure sensor to the dry gas cylinder 20, the air pressure sensor can detect the air pressure in the dry gas cylinder 20, and by electrically connecting the air pressure sensor to the air pressure alarm, the air pressure value detected by the air pressure sensor can be transmitted to the air pressure alarm. The air pressure alarm can selectively issue an alarm based on the relationship between the air pressure value detected by the air pressure sensor and the warning air pressure value, thereby making the operation of the air pressure alarm device 50 simpler and more reliable.

[0057] Furthermore, the air pressure alarm device 50 may also include a power supply, which is electrically connected to the air pressure alarm and the air pressure sensor respectively. The power supply can supply power to the air pressure alarm and the air pressure sensor, that is, the air pressure alarm device 50 has its own power supply, and the normal operation of the air pressure alarm device 50 can be ensured without the transportation device 100 being additionally provided with a power supply, thereby ensuring the passive anti-condensation function of the transportation device 100.

[0058] As described above, after the dry gas is introduced into the battery transport compartment 10 and the battery transport compartment 10 is placed on the transport vehicle 90, the gas hose can be connected to the dry gas cylinder 20 and the fire fighting pipe 30 respectively. Before connecting the gas hose, the pressure reducing valve 40 and the air pressure alarm device 50 are installed on the dry gas cylinder 20, the pressure value controlled by the pressure reducing valve 40 is set, and then the warning air pressure value of the air pressure alarm device 50 that monitors the air pressure of the dry gas cylinder 20 is set. Finally, the valve of the dry gas cylinder 20 is opened.

[0059] In this way, the pressure reducing valve 40 can be used to detect and maintain the air pressure in the storage space 11 during use, so as to prevent external moist air from entering the storage space 11 and causing condensation. When the dry gas cylinder 20 is too low in gas, the air pressure alarm device 50 can also remind the driver to replace the dry gas cylinder 20 or replenish dry gas.

[0060] In some examples of the present invention, the transport device 100 further includes: a carrier 90, and the battery transport bin 10 is arranged on the carrier 90. Specifically, when the manufacturing site and the use site of the energy storage battery system 80 are far apart, the energy storage battery system 80 needs to be loaded onto the transport device 100 for transportation. By setting the carrier 90, the carrier 90 is set on the battery transport bin 10, so that the carrier 90 can realize the transportation of the battery transport bin 10, thereby ensuring the basic transportation function of the transport device 100. Among them, the carrier 90 includes but is not limited to vehicles, ships, etc., which are not specifically limited here.

[0061] Combination Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the transport device 100 according to the present invention may mainly include: a battery transport compartment 10 and a battery 70. The battery transport compartment 10 is provided with a receiving space 11, dry gas is introduced into the receiving space 11, and the battery 70 is arranged in the receiving space 11.

[0062] Specifically, by arranging the battery 70 in the accommodating space 11, the battery transport compartment 10 can provide a cover and protection for the battery 70, thereby preventing the erosion of foreign objects or the impact of external forces from damaging the structure of the battery 70, and ensuring the normal operation of the battery 70.

[0063] Furthermore, since dry gas is introduced into the accommodating space 11, the air containing moisture in the accommodating space 11 can be discharged, so that the accommodating space 11 is filled with dry air, so that the accommodating space 11 is always in a dry state, that is, the peripheral environment of the battery 70 can be kept in a dry state.

[0064] In this way, even if the external environment changes, condensation will not occur in the accommodation space 11, thereby ensuring the safety of the internal battery 70 during transportation and improving the reliability of the transportation device 100.
