[0044] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments in the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.
[0045] As shown Figures 1 - 16 in the figure, an embodiment of the present application provides a battery pack, which can be applied to an electric vehicle and used as an electric vehicle battery pack, or can be applied to an aircraft and used as an aircraft battery pack. The battery pack provided by the embodiment of the present application includes an installation box 100, a battery cell module 200, and electrical components 300.
[0046] Among them, the installation box 100 has a receiving cavity. The battery cell module 200 and the electrical components 300 are both located in the receiving cavity and are both connected to the cavity wall of the receiving cavity. The battery cell module 200 and the electrical components 300 are distributed at intervals along the height direction of the installation box 100. The number of the electrical components 300 can be multiple. Optionally, the electrical components 300 can include high-voltage electrical components, for example, can include a high-voltage positive connector and a high-voltage negative connector, etc. Of course, the electrical components 300 can also include low-voltage electrical components, and the present application does not limit this.
[0047] It should be noted that the length, width, and height directions of the installation box 100 are respectively consistent with the length, width, and height directions of the battery pack, and the height direction of the battery pack is perpendicular to the length direction of the battery pack and perpendicular to the width direction of the battery pack.
[0048] In the prior art, the electrical components 300 and the battery cell module 200 of the battery pack are usually in the same plane space, that is, in the same height space. Therefore, the length and width dimensions of the battery pack are relatively large.
[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, the battery cell module 200 and the electrical components 300 are distributed along the height direction of the battery pack, reducing the dimensions of the battery pack in the length direction and the width direction. When the battery pack is applied to a vehicle or an aircraft, the installation position of the battery pack is more flexible. It can be installed not only on the chassis of the vehicle and the aircraft, but also at other positions of the vehicle or the aircraft, such as the wing and tail of the aircraft. Thus, it can be seen that the embodiment of the present application can solve the problem that the length and width dimensions of the battery pack in the prior art are relatively large.
[0050] In addition, the battery cell module 200 and the electrical components 300 are arranged in layers along the height direction, so that the battery cell module 200 and the electrical components 300 are in spaces at different heights, ensuring the safety performance of the battery pack while reducing the length and width values of the battery pack and reasonably utilizing the height space of the battery pack.
[0051] To facilitate the maintenance and protection of the battery cell module 200 and electrical components 300 inside the installation box 100, the installation box 100 may include a box body 110 and a box cover 120. The box body 110 may have a receiving groove, and the box cover 120 may be detachably connected to the box body 110 by means such as screw connection or snap connection, and seal the notch of the receiving groove, so that the box body 110 and the box cover 120 enclose a receiving cavity. Optionally, the installation box 100 may be in a cuboid structure. Of course, in other embodiments, the installation box 100 may also be of other shapes, and the present application does not limit this.
[0052] Optionally, the detachable connection between the box body 110 and the box cover 120 may be a detachable connection in which the box cover 120 can be completely removed from the box body 110, or a detachable connection in which the box cover 120 cannot be completely removed from the box body 110. For example, one end of the box cover 120 may be rotatably connected to the box body 110 through a rotating shaft, and the other end may be detachably connected to the box body 110 by means such as screw connection or snap connection.
[0053] In this case, when the battery cell module 200 or the electrical component 300 fails, the box cover 120 can be removed or opened, which is convenient for maintaining the battery cell module 200 and the electrical component 300 inside the installation box 100.
[0054] In a further technical solution, the electrical component 300 may be located in a region close to the box cover 120.
[0055] There are various methods for connecting the battery cell module 200 and the electrical component 300 to the wall of the receiving cavity. In an optional embodiment, the battery cell module 200 may be directly connected to the wall of the receiving cavity by means such as bonding or screw connection, and the electrical component 300 may be directly connected to the wall of the receiving cavity by means such as bonding or screw connection.
[0056] In another preferred embodiment, the battery pack may include a first mounting bracket 410. The first mounting bracket 410 may be connected to the side wall of the receiving cavity along the first direction X and divide the receiving cavity into an electrical cavity 130 and a battery cell cavity 140 along the second direction Z. The electrical component 300 is located in the electrical cavity 130 and may be mounted on the first mounting bracket 410 by means such as bolt connection, snap connection, bonding, etc., so as to mount the electrical component 300 on the side wall of the receiving cavity through the first mounting bracket 410.
[0057] In this case, it is convenient for the installation of a single electrical component 300 and also for the disassembly and assembly between multiple electrical components 300 and the installation box 100. For example, when the battery cell module 200 fails, removing the first mounting bracket 410 can achieve the removal of multiple electrical components 300, reducing the operation steps when maintaining the battery cell module 200.
[0058] The battery cell module 200 is located in the battery cell cavity 140, and there may be a first gap between the battery cell module 200 and the first mounting frame 410. The first gap enables the battery cell module 200 to better dissipate heat during operation, thereby improving the safety performance of the battery pack. The first gap can also adapt to the dimensional changes of the battery cell module 200 due to thermal expansion and contraction, thereby making the battery pack less likely to deform and extending the service life of the battery pack.
[0059] Please note that, please refer to Figure 4 The first direction X refers to the length of the installation box 100, and the second direction Z corresponds to the height of the installation box 100. The first mounting bracket 410 being connected to the sidewalls of the accommodating chamber along the first direction X means that the first mounting bracket 410 is connected to two opposing sidewalls of the installation box 100 extending along the length direction. Of course, in other embodiments, the first mounting bracket 410 may also be connected to two opposing sidewalls of the installation box 100 extending along the third direction Y (i.e., the width direction).
[0060] Optionally, the first mounting bracket 410 may be parallel to the bottom wall of the mounting cavity (ie, the inner bottom surface of the mounting box 100 ).
[0061] In an optional embodiment, the side wall of the first mounting bracket 410 can be directly snapped, bonded, or screwed to the side wall of the accommodating cavity.
[0062] In another optional embodiment, first support members 111 protruding toward the interior of the accommodating chamber may be provided on two opposing side walls of the accommodating chamber. The first mounting bracket 410 may be supported by the first support members 111 and detachably connected to the first support members 111 via first connectors 530, so that the first mounting bracket 410 can be mounted on the side wall of the accommodating chamber via the first support members 111. This structure facilitates assembly and disassembly of the first mounting bracket 410 and also increases the support area for the first mounting bracket 410 in the height direction, thereby improving the stability of the first mounting bracket 410.
[0063] Optionally, the first support member 111 may be a plate-like structure, one side wall of which may be connected to two opposing side walls of the accommodating cavity by welding, clamping, or bonding, and disposed perpendicularly to the side walls of the accommodating cavity. The two first support members 111 may be disposed on the side walls in the first direction X, or may be disposed on the side walls in the third direction Y. This application uses the example of two first support members 111 disposed on the side walls in the first direction X.
[0064] Optionally, the first support member includes a first part and a second part. The first part is in contact with the side wall of the accommodation cavity and can be fixed to the side wall of the accommodation cavity by means of welding, screw connection, bonding or the like. The second part protrudes toward the inside of the accommodation cavity from the first part. The edge of the first mounting bracket 410 is in contact with the first part and the second part, and is connected to the second part by a first connecting member 530, so that the first support member 111 supports the first mounting bracket 410.
[0065] Optionally, the first connecting member 530 may be a threaded fastener such as a bolt or a screw. Alternatively, the first connecting member 530 may also be a limiting protrusion protruding from the first support member 111 along the second direction Z. A limiting hole may be provided on the first mounting bracket 410, and the limiting protrusion may partially extend into the limiting hole, or completely extend into the limiting hole, or pass through the limiting hole, so that the first support member 111 and the first mounting bracket 410 are in limiting cooperation in a plane perpendicular to the second direction Z.
[0066] The number of the battery cell modules 200 may be one or more, for example, two.
[0067] When the number of the battery cell modules 200 is multiple, the multiple battery cell modules 200 may be spaced apart along the second direction Z, that is, spaced apart along the height direction. A second gap may be provided between two adjacent groups of battery cell modules 200. The second gap enables the battery cell modules 200 to dissipate heat better during operation, improving the safety performance of the battery pack. The second gap can also accommodate the dimensional changes of the battery cell modules 200 due to thermal expansion and contraction, making the battery pack not easily deformed and extending the service life of the battery pack.
[0068] The battery pack may include a second mounting bracket 420. The second mounting bracket 420 may be detachably connected to the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140 along the first direction X. The number of the second mounting brackets 420 is one less than the number of the battery cell modules 200. Among the multiple battery cell modules 200, one battery cell module 200 is installed on the inner bottom surface of the installation box 100, and the other battery cell modules 200 are respectively installed on the second mounting brackets 420, so as to install the battery cell modules 200 in the battery cell cavity 140 through the second mounting brackets 420. In this case, the supporting area for the battery cell modules 200 in the height direction can be increased, improving the installation stability of the battery cell modules 200.
[0069] In a further technical solution, second support members 112 protruding towards the interior of the battery cell cavity 140 may be provided at two opposite side walls of the battery cell cavity 140. The two second support members 112 may be respectively arranged at the side walls in the first direction X or at the side walls in the third direction Y. In this application, an example is given where the two second support members 112 are respectively arranged at the side walls in the first direction X. The second support member 112 includes a third part and a fourth part. The third part is attached to the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140 and may be fixed to the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140 by means of welding, screw connection, bonding, etc. The fourth part protrudes towards the interior of the battery cell cavity 140 from the third part. The second mounting bracket 420 may be supported on the third part and the fourth part of the second support member 112 and is detachably connected to the fourth part of the second support member 112 through a second connecting member, so that the second support member 112 supports the second mounting bracket 420.
[0070] This structure facilitates the installation of the second mounting bracket 420 more, can reduce the installation difficulty of the second mounting bracket 420, and can also increase the supporting area for the second mounting bracket 420 in the second direction Z, thereby improving the stability of the second mounting bracket 420. At the same time, the battery cell cavity 140 is divided into two along the second direction Z, which is convenient for installing two battery cell modules 200.
[0071] Of course, in other embodiments, the second support member 112 may be a plate-like structure. The plate-like structure is vertically arranged with the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140, and one side wall of the plate-like structure is attached to the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140 and is fixed to the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140 by means of welding, screw connection, clamping, bonding, etc.
[0072] Optionally, the second connecting member may be a screw or a bolt.
[0073] In the embodiment of this application, the second connecting member may include a blind rivet bolt 510 and a blind rivet nut 520. The blind rivet nut 520 may be fixedly arranged on the inner bottom surface of the installation box 100. The rod portion of the blind rivet bolt 510 passes through the second mounting bracket 420 and the second support member 112 along the second direction Z and is threadedly connected to the blind rivet nut 520, so that the second mounting bracket 420 is detachably connected to the second support member 112.
[0074] The battery cell module 200 includes a battery cell support 210 and a plurality of battery cells 220. The plurality of battery cells 220 are arranged in an array on the battery cell support 210. The battery cell supports 210 of the plurality of battery cell modules 200 are respectively installed on the second mounting bracket 420 and the inner bottom surface of the installation box 100. The edge of the battery cell support 210 may be attached to the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140, or there may be a safety gap between the edge of the battery cell support 210 and the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140.
[0075] In the above scheme, the second mounting frame 420 is installed on the second support member 112 through the cooperation of the rivet bolt 510 and the rivet nut 520, and is thus installed on the side wall of the battery cell cavity 140 through the second support member 112. In order to prevent the battery cell holder 210 from interfering with the rivet bolt 510 or the rivet nut 520, in an optional embodiment, the edge of the battery cell holder 210 can be a planar structure, and the entire edge avoids the rivet bolt 510 and the rivet nut 520.
[0076] In other optional embodiments, the edge of the cell holder 210 may have a curved surface structure. For example, the edge of the cell holder 210 may be provided with a first avoidance notch 211 for avoiding the rivet bolt 510. The rivet bolt 510 passes through the first avoidance notch 211, and the rivet nut 520 is located in the first avoidance notch 211 of the cell holder 210 installed on the inner bottom surface of the installation box 100. Optionally, the surface of the first avoidance notch 211 that forms the edge of the cell holder 210 may be an arc surface.
[0077] Under this structure, the battery cell holder 210 will not interfere with the installation of the rivet bolts 510 and the rivet nuts 520. Compared with the flat structure of the edge of the battery cell holder 210 and the structure in which the entire edge avoids the rivet bolts 510 and the rivet nuts 520, this structure can increase the area of the battery cell holder 210, thereby allowing the battery cell holder 210 to install a larger number of battery cells 220.
[0078] In order to install the battery cell 220 on the battery cell holder 210, the battery cell holder 210 can be provided with a limiting groove 212, and the bottom of the battery cell 220 can extend into the limiting groove 212 to limit the battery cell 220 through the limiting groove 212. An adhesive layer can be formed between the battery cell 220 and the groove wall of the limiting groove 212 by glue filling to fix the limiting groove 212 and the battery cell 220.
[0079] Furthermore, the battery cell holder 210 can be placed on the inner bottom surface of the installation box 100 or the second installation frame 420 for glue injection. In this way, while forming an adhesive layer between the battery cell 220 and the groove wall of the limiting groove 212, an adhesive layer can also be formed on the battery cell holder 210 and the corresponding inner bottom surface of the installation box 100 or the second installation frame 420, thereby realizing the assembly of the inner bottom surface of the installation box 100, the battery cell holder 210 and the battery cell 220, and realizing the assembly of the second installation frame 420, the battery cell holder 210 and the battery cell 220.
[0080] Of course, in other embodiments, the battery cell 220 and the battery cell holder 210, the battery cell holder 210 and the second mounting frame 420, and the battery cell holder 210 and the inner bottom surface of the mounting box 100 may also be connected by other connection methods, and this application does not limit this.
[0081] Optionally, the battery cell 220 can be a cylindrical battery cell, such as a 4695 battery cell, or a square battery cell. The present application does not limit the specific type of the battery cell 220.
[0082] The battery cell module 200 includes a plurality of battery cells 220. The plurality of battery cells 220 can be arranged in an array on the battery cell bracket 210. In order to realize the electrical connection between the plurality of battery cells 220, the battery cell module 200 further includes an electrical connection component, and the plurality of battery cells 220 can be electrically connected through the electrical connection component. The battery cell brackets 210 of the plurality of battery cell modules 200 are respectively installed on the inner bottom surface of the second mounting frame 420 and the mounting box 100.
[0083] Optionally, the electrical connection component can include a plurality of electrical connection bars 230 (bus bars). The electrical connection bars 230 are welded to the pole posts of the battery cells 220. As Figure 16 shown, in the same battery cell module 200, every two battery cells 220 can be connected in parallel through the electrical connection bar 230 to form a group, and the two battery cells 220 connected in parallel and the two battery cells 220 connected in parallel in the next group are connected in series. Of course, the electrical connection manner between the plurality of battery cells 220 in the battery cell module 200 is not limited to the above electrical connection manner, and the present application does not limit this.
[0084] In the case where the battery pack includes a plurality of battery cell modules 200, the battery pack can further include a jumper bar 240. The electrical connection components of two adjacent battery cell modules 200 can be electrically connected through the jumper bar 240 to realize the electrical connection between the plurality of battery cell modules 200. As Figure 13 shown, in order to facilitate the electrical connection between the battery pack and an external circuit, the positive and negative electrodes of the battery pack can be distributed on the same side of the battery pack.
[0085] Optionally, both the electrical connection bar 230 and the jumper bar 240 can be flexible copper bars.
[0086] Since there is a second mounting frame 420 between two adjacent battery cell modules 200, in order to prevent the second mounting frame 420 and the battery cell bracket 210 from interfering with the jumper bar 240, the second mounting frame 420 can be provided with a second avoidance notch 421 for avoiding the jumper bar 240, and the edge of the battery cell bracket 210 provided on the second mounting frame 420 can be provided with a third avoidance notch 213 for avoiding the jumper bar 240. The jumper bar 240 passes through the second avoidance notch 421 and the third avoidance notch 213 so that the jumper bar 240 can connect two adjacent battery cell modules 200 distributed along the second direction Z.
[0087] Specifically, the jumper bar 240 may include a first jumper portion 241 and a second jumper portion 242. The first electrical connection end of the first jumper portion 241 and the fourth electrical connection end of the second jumper portion 242 are respectively electrically connected to the electrical connection components of two adjacent battery cell modules 200.
