Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of new energy batteries, and in particular to an energy storage container. Background Art

[0002] With the widespread application of new energy batteries, the demand for their total capacity is also increasing. In order to maximize the battery capacity of new energy batteries, containerized battery structures are often used. However, large battery structures pose a greater risk in the event of a fire, and firefighting measures must be taken.

[0003] Existing firefighting measures for energy storage containers typically involve installing a universal firefighting pipe connected to external firefighting equipment. A floor drain is installed at the bottom of the container. In the event of a fire, the external firefighting equipment directly injects large amounts of firefighting water into the container through the firefighting pipe, which then flows out through the floor drain. This firefighting measure, with only a single firefighting pipe and no valves to control it, can lead to operator error, resulting in large amounts of firefighting water being injected into the container even when no fire is present, damaging the batteries.

[0004] The energy storage container in the prior art has a low fire safety performance due to its overly simple fire protection structure. Utility Model Content

[0005] The present invention provides an energy storage container that can solve the problem of low fire safety performance in the prior art. The technical solution is as follows:

[0006] An energy storage container, comprising: a container body, a fire water inlet pipe and a fire water outlet pipe,

[0015] The beneficial effects of the technical solution provided by the embodiment of the utility model include at least:

[0016] An embodiment of the present invention provides an energy storage container, in which a first ball valve is provided on a fire water inlet pipe. When a fire occurs, fire water from external fire-fighting equipment needs to pass through the control of the first ball valve before entering the interior of the container.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] In order to make the purpose, technical solutions and advantages of the present invention more clear, the embodiments of the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the overall structure provided by an embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 2 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly of the fire water inlet pipe structure provided by an embodiment of the utility model; Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of the assembly of the fire water outlet pipe structure provided by an embodiment of the utility model; Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of fire detector signal transmission provided by an embodiment of the present utility model; Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the water level sensor signal transmission provided by the embodiment of the present utility model. Figures 1 to 5 The energy storage container shown includes: a box body 1, a fire water inlet pipe 2 and a fire water outlet pipe 3. The box body 1 is a rectangular parallelepiped structure. The fire water inlet pipe 2 and the fire water outlet pipe 3 are arranged at the bottom of one side of the box body 1. A first ball valve 41 is provided on the fire water inlet pipe 2 on the side outside the box body 1, and a second ball valve 42 is provided on the fire water outlet pipe 3.

[0026] For example, in the embodiment of the present invention, a flange 9 is further included, which is welded to the fire water inlet pipe 2 and the fire water outlet pipe 3 for assembly with the first ball valve 41 and the second ball valve 42. The fire water inlet pipe 2 and the fire water outlet pipe 3 are first inserted into the side bottom of the box body 1, and the flange 9 is welded to the part of the fire water inlet pipe 2 and the fire water outlet pipe 3 located outside the box body 1. The first ball valve 41 and the second ball valve 42 are both provided with a mounting portion that matches the flange 9. The mounting portion is connected with the flange 9 to fix the first ball valve 41 on the fire water inlet pipe 2 and the fire water outlet pipe 3. On the water inlet pipe 2, the second ball valve 42 is fixedly installed on the fire outlet pipe 3, and then the external fire-fighting equipment is connected to the first ball valve 41. When a fire occurs, it is not only necessary to open the external fire-fighting equipment, but also necessary to open the first ball valve 41 before the fire-fighting water can enter the interior of the box. Compared with the prior art, which directly sets the fire pipe to be connected to the external fire-fighting equipment, the embodiment of the utility model prevents the staff from misoperating by setting the first ball valve 41 and mistakenly adding fire-fighting water to the container where no fire has occurred, thereby improving the fire safety performance of the energy storage container. By setting the fire outlet pipe 3, the fire-fighting waste liquid can be collected and processed through the equipment outside the fire outlet pipe 3. Compared with the prior art, the fire-fighting waste liquid directly flows out through the floor drain and is not convenient for collection and processing. The embodiment of the utility model is more environmentally friendly. In this embodiment, the fire outlet pipe 3 is set on the side of the box 1, thereby avoiding the problem of floor drain blockage. It is also more convenient to repair it, saving a lot of manpower and material resources.

[0027] An embodiment of the present invention provides an energy storage container, in which a first ball valve 41 is provided on the fire water inlet pipe 2. When a fire occurs, the fire water of the external fire-fighting equipment needs to pass through the control of the first ball valve 41 before entering the interior of the container 1. When the fire is alleviated, the fire water inside the container is discharged by opening the second ball valve 42. This structure can prevent operators from making mistakes and mistakenly adding fire water to a container where no fire has occurred, and can effectively solve the problem of low fire safety performance in the prior art.

[0028] Optionally, a third ball valve 43 is provided on the fire water inlet pipe 2 , and the third ball valve 43 is located between the first ball valve 41 and the box body 1 . A fire detector 5 is provided inside the box body 1 , and the fire detector 5 is signal-connected to the third ball valve 43 .

[0029] For example, in an embodiment of the present invention, the third ball valve 43 is an electric ball valve, also mounted on the fire water inlet pipe 2 via flange 9. When the fire detector 5 detects a fire inside the container 1, it transmits a signal to the third ball valve 43, which then opens, allowing the fire water to enter the container 1. By providing the third ball valve 43, the fire water entering the container 1 is further controlled, preventing damage to the battery caused by misoperation, and further improving the fire safety performance of the energy storage container. To increase the automation level of the energy storage container, the first ball valve 41 can also be kept in a normally open state, and the fire water can be automatically controlled through the cooperation of the fire detector 5 and the third ball valve 43, thereby improving the automation level of the energy storage container.

[0030] Optionally, a three-way pipe 6 is arranged between the first ball valve 41 and the third ball valve 43, and the three-way pipe 6 includes a first end 61, a second end 62 and a third end 63; the first end 61 is connected to the first ball valve 41, the second end 62 is connected to the third ball valve 43, and a threaded ball valve 44 is arranged on the third end 63.

[0031] For example, in an embodiment of the present invention, a three-way pipe 6 is provided between the first ball valve 41 and the third ball valve 43. By opening the threaded ball valve 44 at the third end 63, when the first ball valve 41 is opened, the fire-fighting water of the external fire-fighting equipment flows out through the third end 63. The amount of water flowing out is observed to check whether the fire-fighting water of the external fire-fighting equipment enters the fire-fighting water inlet pipe 2 normally. If the water flow at the third end 63 is small, the problem can be discovered in time and the fire-fighting water inlet pipe 2 can be repaired, thereby further improving the fire safety performance of the energy storage container.

[0032] Optionally, the inner diameter of the third end 63 is 10 mm.

[0033] For example, in this embodiment of the present invention, the fire hose typically has an inner diameter of 65 mm. The third end 63 serves as a water test end, eliminating the need for an excessively large inner diameter, which would otherwise waste water. By setting the inner diameter of the third end 63 to 10 mm, the outflow can be monitored to verify whether fire water from external firefighting equipment is properly entering the fire water inlet pipe 2, while minimizing fire water waste, thereby improving the practicality of the energy storage container.

[0034] Optionally, a water level sensor 7 is provided in the box body 1 , and the water level sensor 7 is connected to the second ball valve 42 for signal communication.

[0035] For example, in this embodiment of the utility model, the second ball valve 42 is an electric ball valve. By installing a water level sensor 7 in the container 1, after the fire water enters the container 1, when the fire waste liquid in the container 1 is detected, the water level sensor 7 transmits a signal to the second ball valve 42, causing the second ball valve 42 to automatically open and discharge the fire waste liquid through the fire outlet pipe 3 to the waste liquid collection equipment for centralized treatment. This structure improves the automation level of the energy storage container.

[0036] Optionally, an audible and visual alarm 8 is provided outside the box body 1 , and the water level sensor 7 is connected to the audible and visual alarm 8 for signal communication.

[0037] For example, in an embodiment of the present invention, during the automated control, when the water level sensor 7 detects that there is fire water in the box 1, it will transmit a signal to the sound and light alarm 8, so that the staff knows that a fire has occurred in the box 1 and that fire water has been added, so that the staff can understand the situation in time and respond. By providing the sound and light alarm 8, the practicality of the energy storage container is further improved.

[0038] Optionally, a ventilation hole 11 is provided on the box body 1 .

[0039] For example, in this embodiment of the utility model, the provision of ventilation holes 11 increases ventilation within the container 1 after the firefighting process, facilitating the evaporation of liquid within the container 1 and facilitating subsequent disposal. Furthermore, during normal use of the energy storage container, the ventilation holes 11 also provide a heat dissipation channel for the battery structure within the container 1, further enhancing the practicality of the energy storage container.

[0040] Optionally, an operating door 12 is provided on one side of the box body 1 .

[0041] For example, in an embodiment of the present invention, by providing an operating door 12, it is convenient for staff to enter and exit the box 1 and perform maintenance on the battery equipment inside the box 1. It is also convenient for staff to perform post-processing on the battery equipment in the box 1 after a fire occurs, thereby further improving the practicality of the energy storage container.
