The integrated energy storage machine products are generally modular in design, including inverter modules, battery pack modules, etc. In practical applications, a complete integrated energy storage machine is formed by combining modules.

Since the modules are fixed by mechanical combination, the electrical connection of the product is completed by electrical connection, such as the electrical connection between the inverter and the battery pack, and the parallel connection between battery packs.

[0033] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the embodiments of the present disclosure clearer, the technical solution of the embodiments of the present disclosure will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings of the embodiments of the present disclosure. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present disclosure, not all of the embodiments. Based on the described embodiments of the present disclosure, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

[0035] In order to keep the following description of the embodiments of the present disclosure clear and concise, the present disclosure omits detailed descriptions of some known functions and known components.

[0036] An embodiment of the present disclosure provides an all-in-one module.

[0037] Figure 1 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of the structure of an integrated energy storage device according to a disclosed embodiment. Figure 1 As shown, an integrated machine module of a disclosed embodiment includes:

[0038] The boundary type module 100 is directional provided with one or more directional connectors;

[0039] The central module 101 is provided with a plurality of interconnecting connectors in each direction;

[0040] Among them, the directional connector is used to connect the interconnecting connector; the interconnecting connector is used to connect the directional connector or other interconnecting connectors.

[0041] The integrated machine module includes two types: edge type module 100 and central type module 101. By stacking the integrated machine modules, an energy storage integrated machine is formed. Figure 1 As shown, the boundary type module 100 is located at one end of the energy storage integrated machine, including the top, bottom, left or right side, etc., which is determined according to the shape of the energy storage integrated machine. Figure 1 As shown, in the vertically stacked integrated energy storage device, the integrated energy storage device includes a top and a bottom.

[0042] like Figure 2 As shown, in another disclosed embodiment of the energy storage integrated device, as Figure 2As shown, the boundary type module 100 includes a plurality of integrated modules at the top, bottom and sides. The structure of the boundary type module 100 can be equated to forming a shell for protecting the hub type module 101, and the hub type module 101 is located in the shell.

[0043] Taking the connector of a traditional integrated energy storage machine as an example, in the constructed integrated energy storage machine, if the connector positions of each integrated machine module are the same, then the integrated machine module where the boundary type module 100 is located must have at least one connector located outside the integrated energy storage machine, and the connector direction is facing the outside of the integrated energy storage machine, and each connector of the integrated machine module where the hub type module 101 is located must be connected to another integrated machine module. Based on this, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, the directional connector of the boundary type module 100 is directional. For example, the boundary type module 100 located at the bottom of the integrated energy storage machine has a directional connector that is vertically upward, and the boundary type module 100 located at the top of the integrated energy storage machine has a directional connector that is vertically downward.

[0044] As one of the optional embodiments, the boundary type module 100 includes:

[0045] module housing;

[0046] A main functional unit disposed in the module housing;

[0047] a boundary mechanical structure disposed on one side outside the module housing;

[0048] The boundary mechanical structure is used to realize the structural function of the outer side of the module housing.

[0049] The module housing serves as the outer housing of the boundary type module 100, providing accommodation space and external protection for the main functional unit. At the same time, the outer portion of the module housing is used to set the boundary mechanical structure.

[0050] The boundary mechanical structure includes a top mechanical structure, a bottom mechanical structure and / or a side mechanical structure.

[0051] The top mechanical structure is arranged at the top of the module housing, the bottom mechanical structure is arranged at the bottom of the module housing, and the side mechanical structure is arranged at the side of the module housing.

[0052] Among them, the boundary mechanical structure is used to realize corresponding mechanical functions, such as supporting function, protection function or handle function and other functions based on simple mechanical structure.

[0053] As one of the optional embodiments, the bottom mechanical structure includes a base, the top mechanical structure includes a top cover, and the side mechanical structure includes a housing mounting structure for mounting the module housing to a target carrier.

[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, taking the bottom mechanical structure as the base 102 as an example, the boundary type module 100 integrates the base 102, and there is no need to configure an additional base and connector for the integrated module. This boundary type module 100 can form an energy storage integrated machine based on the base alone, and other integrated machine modules can be stacked on top of the boundary type module 100 to form a larger scale energy storage integrated machine. At the same time, the boundary type module 100 is provided with a directional connector upward, and there is no need for a mechanical connector connected to the base downward, saving at least one connector.

[0055] Among them, the top mechanical structure and the side mechanical structure are similar, and there is no need for the connector on one side of the boundary mechanical structure. While saving connectors, the mechanical functions of the boundary mechanical structure are integrated. The mechanical deployment of the energy storage integrated machine can be completed through a single boundary module 100, and the mechanical functions can also be superimposed on a larger-scale energy storage integrated machine.

[0056] It should be noted that the base, top cover and shell installation structure are the selection of a single embodiment. Those skilled in the art can set the mechanical structure at the bottom, bottom and side according to the actual needs according to the mechanical function requirements of the energy storage integrated machine. In the process of integrating a large-scale energy storage integrated machine, the number of boundary modules 100 and the number of hub modules 101 are calculated according to actual needs to perform flexible energy storage integrated machine integration.

[0057] Similarly, the hub module 101 includes:

[0058] module housing;

[0059] A main functional unit is arranged in the module housing.

[0060] In the boundary type module 100 and the hub type module 101, the module housing is the same in principle, and the main functional unit is also the same in principle. In the actual deployment process, the main functional unit with different circuit functions is selected according to the location requirements of the energy storage integrated machine.

[0061] The main functional unit is used to realize the electrical functions of the energy storage integrated machine, which includes an integrated machine module for realizing electrical functions such as energy storage, power conversion, and power management. Correspondingly, the main functional unit includes an energy storage unit, an inverter unit, a BMS (Battery Management System) unit, and / or an EMS (Energy Management System) unit.

[0062] Among them, the directional connector and the connecting connector are used to realize the electrical connection of the main functional units of different all-in-one modules.

[0063] As one of the optional embodiments, the directional connector and the connecting connector are also used to realize the mechanical connection of different all-in-one modules, and stabilize the cooperation between two adjacent all-in-one modules through mechanical connection to form a fixed structure.

[0064] As one of the optional embodiments, the directional connector and the connecting connector are both blind-plug connectors, that is, the mechanical connection and electrical connection between the integrated machine modules are achieved through blind plugging.

[0065] Figure 3 FIG. 1 is a schematic diagram of a directional connector according to a disclosed embodiment. Figure 3 As shown, taking the boundary type module 100 with a base as an example, the boundary type module 100 is provided with a directional connector 200 oriented upward, which can only receive the connector of the integrated machine module downwardly mated above, thus saving a downward connector.

[0066] Figure 4 Schematic diagram of a communication connector according to a disclosed embodiment. Figure 4 As shown, the hub module 101 has two installation connection directions, namely, top and bottom. Based on different directions, connecting connectors 201 are respectively arranged at the top and the bottom.

[0067] Through the above embodiments, it can be seen that the integrated machine module of any embodiment of the present disclosure includes a boundary-type module 100 and a hub-type module 101. The boundary-type module 100 is directionally provided with one or more directional connectors, and the hub-type module 101 is respectively provided with multiple interconnecting connectors in each direction. Among them, the directional connector is used to connect the interconnecting connector; the interconnecting connector is used to connect the directional connector or other interconnecting connectors. The energy storage integrated machine is formed by stacking a plurality of different types of integrated machine modules, and the boundary-type module 100 is located at one extreme of the energy storage integrated machine. The boundary-type module 100 can save the connector in the extreme outward direction, reduce the deployment cost of the connector, and at the same time improve the stacking flexibility of the energy storage integrated machine.

[0068] Based on the integrated machine module of any of the above embodiments, the embodiments of the present disclosure also protect an integrated energy storage machine form, including:

[0069] At least one all-in-one module according to any one of the above embodiments;

[0070] Wherein, the integrated machine module includes at least one boundary type module.

[0071] In the energy storage integrated machine of the embodiment of the present disclosure, at least one boundary type module is disposed at one extreme of the energy storage integrated machine, such as the top, bottom or side, and is located at the outermost position in the structure of the energy storage integrated machine, for example Figure 1For another example, in the form of an integrated energy storage device installed on a wall, the boundary-type module can be in four forms: closest to the wall, farthest from the wall, and on the top. With the corresponding mechanical structure, the corresponding mechanical functions such as wall installation, sun and rain protection on the top cover, and external handles can be realized.

[0072] Based on at least one boundary type module, connectors are saved. Compared with the traditional integrated energy storage device, in the integrated energy storage device of the embodiment of the present disclosure, the number of connectors saved is positively correlated with the number of boundary type modules.

[0073] The integrated energy storage machine of any of the above disclosed embodiments includes at least one integrated machine module, and the integrated machine module includes at least one boundary type module. The integrated machine module includes a boundary type module and a hub type module. The boundary type module is directionally provided with one or more directional connectors, and the hub type module is respectively provided with multiple interconnecting connectors in each direction. Among them, the directional connector is used to connect the interconnecting connector; the interconnecting connector is used to connect the directional connector or other interconnecting connectors. The integrated energy storage machine is formed by stacking a plurality of integrated machine modules of different types, and the boundary type module is located at one extreme of the integrated energy storage machine. The boundary type module can save the connector in the extreme outward direction, reduce the deployment cost of the connector, and at the same time improve the stacking flexibility of the integrated energy storage machine.
