[0033] The utility model discloses an end cover assembly, an energy storage device and an electrical equipment, which can avoid the situation that the sealant rebounds and loses the sealing effect, and the risk of liquid leakage of the energy storage device is relatively low.
[0034] The following will describe in detail some embodiments of the present application with reference to the drawings. Without conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.
[0035] Since the energy required by people has strong temporality and spatiality, in order to rationally utilize energy and improve the energy utilization rate, it is necessary to store one form of energy in the same or converted into another form of energy through a medium or device, and then release it in a specific energy form based on future application needs. At present, the main way to generate green electric energy is to develop green energy such as photovoltaic and wind power to replace fossil energy. At present, the generation of green electric energy generally depends on photovoltaic, wind power, water potential, etc. However, wind energy and solar energy generally have problems such as strong intermittency and large volatility, which will cause the power grid to be unstable, there is not enough electricity during peak electricity consumption, and there is too much electricity during low electricity consumption. The unstable voltage will also damage the power. Therefore, the problem of "abandoning wind and light" may be caused due to insufficient power demand or insufficient grid acceptance capacity. To solve these problems, energy storage is required. That is, the electric energy is converted into other forms of energy and stored through physical or chemical means, and the energy is converted into electric energy and released when needed. Simply put, energy storage is similar to a large "power bank", which stores electric energy when photovoltaic and wind energy are sufficient and releases the stored electric energy when needed.
[0036] Taking electrochemical energy storage as an example, the present solution provides an energy storage device. A group of chemical batteries are provided in the energy storage device, which mainly uses the chemical elements in the batteries as the energy storage medium. The charge and discharge process is accompanied by chemical reactions or changes of the energy storage medium. Simply put, the electric energy generated by wind energy and solar energy is stored in the chemical batteries, and the stored electric quantity is released for use when the external electric energy usage reaches the peak, or transferred to places with tight power for use.
[0037] At present, the application scenarios of current energy storage (i.e., energy storage) are relatively wide, including power generation side energy storage, grid side energy storage, and user side energy storage, etc. The corresponding types of energy storage devices include:
[0038] (1) Large-scale energy storage power stations applied on the wind power and photovoltaic power station sides can assist renewable energy power generation to meet grid connection requirements, and at the same time improve the utilization rate of renewable energy; as high-quality active / reactive power regulation power sources on the power supply side, energy storage power stations achieve load matching of electric energy in time and space, enhance the consumption capacity of renewable energy, reduce instantaneous power changes, reduce the impact on the power grid, improve the problem of new energy power generation consumption, and are of great significance in power grid system standby, alleviating the power supply pressure during peak loads, and peak shaving and frequency modulation.
[0039] (2) Energy storage containers applied on the power grid side are mainly used for peak shaving, frequency modulation, and alleviating grid congestion peak shaving. They can achieve peak shaving and valley filling of electricity loads, that is, charging energy storage batteries during low electricity load valleys and releasing the stored electricity during high electricity load peaks, so as to achieve the balance between power production and consumption.
[0040] (3) Small energy storage cabinets applied on the user side are mainly used for self-generation and self-use of electricity, peak-valley price difference arbitrage, capacity charge management, and improving power supply reliability. According to different application scenarios, energy storage on the user side can be divided into industrial and commercial energy storage cabinets, household energy storage devices, energy storage charging piles, etc., which are generally used in combination with distributed photovoltaics. Industrial and commercial users can use energy storage for peak-valley price difference arbitrage and capacity charge management. In the electricity market implementing peak-valley electricity prices, by charging the energy storage system at low electricity prices and discharging the energy storage system at high electricity prices, peak-valley electricity price difference arbitrage is achieved, reducing electricity costs. In addition, industrial enterprises applicable to two-part electricity prices can use the energy storage system to store energy during low electricity load valleys and discharge during peak loads, thereby reducing peak power and the declared maximum demand, and achieving the purpose of reducing capacity electricity charges. Household photovoltaic energy storage can improve the level of self-generation and self-use of electricity. Due to high electricity prices and poor power supply stability, it stimulates the demand for household photovoltaic installations. Considering that photovoltaics generate electricity during the day while users generally have higher loads at night, by configuring energy storage, photovoltaic power can be better utilized, the level of self-generation and self-use can be improved, and electricity costs can be reduced at the same time. In addition, energy storage needs to be configured in fields such as communication base stations and data centers for backup power supplies.
[0041] Example 1
[0042] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3, is a structural schematic diagram of an end cover assembly 100 provided in Embodiment 1 of the utility model, the end cover assembly 100 includes a cover body 10, a first insulating member 11, a fixing member 12, a pole 13, a sealing member 14, a second insulating member 15 and an insulating support member 16, the cover body 10 has a first mounting hole 10a, a first surface 10b and a second surface 10c, the first surface 10b and the second surface 10c are arranged opposite to each other along the first direction x of the end, the first insulating member 11 is arranged on the first surface 10b, the first insulating member 11 has a second mounting hole 11a corresponding to the first mounting hole 10a, the aperture of the second mounting hole 11a is larger than the aperture of the first mounting hole 10a, the second insulating member 15 includes a main body 151, the main body 151 is arranged on the second surface 10c, the main body 151 has a third mounting hole 151a corresponding to the first mounting hole 10a, the pole 13 includes The cap portion 131 and the main body portion 132, the cap portion 131 is arranged on the side of the main body portion 151 away from the cover body 10, the main body portion 132 is arranged on the side of the cap portion 131 facing the cover body 10, and extends from the main body portion 132 along the first direction x and passes through the third mounting hole 151a, the first mounting hole 10a and the second mounting hole 11a in sequence, the fixing member 12 is arranged on the side of the first insulating member 11 away from the cover body 10, and is fixedly connected to the main body portion 132, there is a gap between the side of the fixing member 12 facing the cover body 10 and the second surface 10c, the sealing member 14 is pressed between the side of the fixing member 12 facing the cover body 10 and the second surface 10c, and is arranged around the outer peripheral wall of the main body portion 132, the insulating support member 16 is embedded in the main body, and is located between the side of the cap portion 131 facing the cover body and the second surface 10c, the melting point of the insulating support member 16 is higher than the melting point of the second insulating member 15.
[0043] In this embodiment, the first insulating member 11 and the second insulating member 15 can separate the cover body 10 and the pole 13 to achieve the insulation setting of the two. A seal 14 is pressed between the cover body 10 and the fixing member 12 in the first direction x, and the sealing design of the energy storage device is realized by using the seal 14. At the same time, the main body 151 of the second insulating member 15 is embedded with an insulating support member 16, and the insulating support member 16 is located between the side of the cap 131 facing the cover body and the second surface 10c. In this way, when the heat generated by the energy storage device using the end cover assembly 100 during testing or use causes the second insulating member 15 to soften or deform, since the melting point of the insulating support member 16 is higher than the melting point of the second insulating member 15, the insulating support member 16 does not soften or deform under its high temperature resistance, which can reduce the change in the extrusion force of the cover body 10 and the fixing member 12 to press the seal 14 together, avoid the seal 14 rebounding and losing the sealing effect, and the risk of leakage of the energy storage device is low.
[0044] For example, Figure 2As shown, the thickness of the main body portion 151 in the first direction x is t, and the height of the insulating support 16 in the first direction x is h, where 0.6t ≤ h ≤ t. If the height h of the insulating support 16 is less than 0.6t, the height h of the insulating support 16 is relatively small, and the supporting effect of the insulating support 16 is poor, making it difficult to reduce the change amount of the extrusion force with which the cover 10 and the fixing member 12 jointly compress the seal 14. Thus, the height of the insulating support 16 being less than the thickness of the main body portion 151 can prevent the insulating support 16 from protruding from the main body portion 151. In this way, before the second insulating member 15 softens or deforms under the influence of the heat generated by the energy storage device, the main body portion 151 can enable the cover 10 and the fixing member 12 to provide the extrusion force for jointly compressing the seal 14, causing the seal 14 to be compressed to the effective compression amount. When the second insulating member 15 softens or deforms under the influence of the heat generated by the energy storage device, the insulating support 16 becomes effective and can reduce the change amount of the extrusion force with which the cover 10 and the fixing member 12 jointly compress the seal 14. Also, the height h of the insulating support 16 in the first direction x can be 0.6t, 0.7t, 0.8t, 0.9t, t, etc., and this embodiment does not make specific limitations on this.
[0045] Among them, the effective compression amount refers to the compression amount that the seal 14 undergoes when being extruded by the extrusion force, and when it is equal to or exceeds this effective compression amount, the seal 14 has a sealing effect.
[0046] Optionally, the height of the insulating support 16 in the first direction x is h, where 0.6 mm ≤ h ≤ 2 mm. If the height h of the insulating support 16 in the first direction x is less than 0.6 mm, the height of the insulating support 16 is small. When the second insulating member 15 softens or deforms under the influence of the heat generated by the energy storage device, the insulating support 16 is less effective in reducing the change amount of the extrusion force with which the cover body 10 and the fixing member 12 jointly press the seal member 14, that is, the above change amount is large, and the sealing effect of the seal member 14 is poor. If the height h of the insulating support 16 in the first direction x is greater than 2 mm, the height of the insulating support 16 is large, the thickness of the main body portion 151 needs to be set large, and the overall thickness of the end cover assembly 100 is large, which is not conducive to the miniaturization design of the energy storage device. Therefore, the height h of the insulating support 16 in the first direction x can be 0.6 mm ≤ h ≤ 2 mm. When the second insulating member 15 softens or deforms under the influence of the heat generated by the energy storage device, the insulating support 16 is effective in reducing the change amount of the extrusion force with which the cover body 10 and the fixing member 12 jointly press the seal member 14, that is, the above change amount is small, the sealing effect of the seal member 14 is good, and the thickness of the main body portion 151 can be set small, and the overall thickness of the end cover assembly 100 is small, which is conducive to the miniaturization design of the energy storage device. Moreover, the height h of the insulating support 16 in the first direction x can be 0.6 mm, 0.65 mm, 0.75 mm, 0.85 mm, 0.95 mm, 1.05 mm, 1.15 mm, 1.25 mm, 1.35 mm, 1.45 mm, 1.55 mm, 1.65 mm, 1.75 mm, 1.85 mm, 2 mm, etc., and the present embodiment does not make specific limitations thereon.
[0047] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, there are multiple insulating supports 16, and the multiple insulating supports 16 are spaced apart and distributed on the main body portion 151. In this way, by the multiple insulating supports 16 being spaced apart and distributed on the main body portion 151, when the multiple insulating supports 16 become effective, the seal member 14 can be jointly pressed by the cover body 10 and the fixing member 12 at multiple positions corresponding to the multiple insulating supports 16, and the sealing effect of the insulating supports 16 is good.
[0048] Exemplarily, the multiple insulating supports 16 are circumferentially equally spaced. In this way, when the multiple insulating supports 16 become effective, the force applied by the cover body 10 and the fixing member 12 to jointly press the seal member 14 at the positions corresponding to the insulating supports 16 is relatively uniform, the compression amounts of the various parts of the seal member 14 are relatively consistent, and the sealing effect is good.
[0049] As an alternative implementation manner, such as Figure 4As shown, the main body 151 is provided with a fourth mounting hole 151b, and the insulating support 16 is disposed on the hole wall of the fourth mounting hole 151b. In this way, by providing the fourth mounting hole 151b, the insulating support 16 is arranged by using the fourth mounting hole 151b, which can reduce the space occupied by the insulating support 16, and the overall thickness of the end cap assembly 100 is relatively small.
[0050] Optionally, the second insulating member 15 is provided with a fourth mounting hole 151b, and the fourth mounting hole 151b is a through hole or a blind hole, and the insulating support 16 is disposed on the hole wall of the fourth mounting hole 151b. This embodiment provides various different types of fourth mounting holes 151b, which can be selected according to actual situations, and this embodiment does not make specific limitations in this regard.
[0051] As another alternative embodiment, the second insulating member 15 is embedded inside the main body 151. In this way, by embedding the insulating support 16 inside the main body 151, the space occupied by the insulating support 16 can be reduced, and the overall thickness of the end cap assembly 100 is relatively small.
[0052] Specifically, the second insulating member 15 can wrap the insulating support 16 by means of secondary injection molding, so that the insulating support 16 is embedded inside the main body 151.
[0053] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 and Figure 4 shown, the second insulating member 15 further includes a first extension portion 152. The first extension portion 152 extends from the main body 151 in the first direction x through the first mounting hole 10a, and the first extension portion 152 is located between the hole wall of the first mounting hole 10a and the outer peripheral wall of the main body portion 132. In this way, by pressing the main body 151 between the cover 10 and the cap portion 131 in the first direction x, insulation between the cover 10 and the cap portion 131 can be achieved, and by the first extension portion 152 being located between the hole wall of the first mounting hole 10a and the outer peripheral wall of the main body portion 132, insulation between the cover 10 and the main body portion 132 can be achieved.
[0054] Exemplarily, the second insulating member 15 further includes a second extension portion 153. The second extension portion 153 is disposed at one end of the main body 151 facing away from the first extension portion 152. The second extension portion 153 extends from the main body 151 in the first direction x away from the cover 10, and the second extension portion 153 abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the cap portion 131. In this way, by the second extension portion 153 extending in the first direction x away from the cover 10 and abutting against the outer peripheral wall of the cap portion 131, while protecting the cap portion 131, the situation of short circuit caused by contact conduction on the outer peripheral wall of the cap portion 131 can be avoided.
[0055] Optionally, the material of the insulating support 16 includes one or more of ceramics, glass, polyimide, and mica. In this embodiment, insulating supports 16 of various different materials are provided and can be selected according to actual situations, and this embodiment does not make specific limitations thereon.
[0056] Optionally, the shape of the insulating support 16 includes one or more of a sphere, a cylinder, and a square column. In this embodiment, insulating supports 16 of various different shapes are provided and can be selected according to actual situations, and this embodiment does not make specific limitations thereon.
