Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the field of lithium-ion batteries, and more specifically, to a high-safety battery module. Background Art
[0002] With the widespread adoption of new energy vehicles in various sectors, including family cars, buses, taxis, logistics vehicles, and specialized vehicles, new energy vehicles are gradually becoming mainstream products. The adoption of lithium batteries in low-speed electric vehicles and electric bicycles is also accelerating, and the lithium battery market for energy storage is also growing rapidly. As the application of lithium-ion batteries expands, fires caused by thermal runaway are increasing, attracting increasing attention and placing greater demands on battery safety to fully ensure safety in various scenarios. Utility Model Content
[0003] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to overcome the deficiencies in the prior art and provide a high-safety battery module.
[0004] The utility model discloses a high-safety battery module, which is realized by the following technical scheme, wherein the battery module comprises a module shell, a module frame, a bus, a heating plate, a heat-insulating fire-extinguishing plate, an FPC collection board, a single cell, and a heat-insulating adhesive; a battery module is formed by connecting a plurality of single cells in series and parallel, and each single cell is installed in the module shell after being wrapped with a heating plate, and a heat-insulating fire-extinguishing plate is arranged between each single cell; the internal gap of the module shell is filled with polyurethane foam heat-insulating adhesive, and the heat-insulating fire-extinguishing plate and the heat-insulating adhesive form a plurality of separate battery compartments; a bus and an FPC sampling board are arranged on the top of the battery module, and the bus and the FPC sampling board are placed on the upper ends of the positive and negative pole ears of the battery, and the series-parallel connection and sampling connection between the single cells are completed by laser welding, and the single cells are bonded to the bottom of the module shell by a high thermal conductivity structural adhesive; wherein the module frame is arranged on the upper ends of the positive and negative pole ears of the battery.
[0005] The heat-insulating fire-extinguishing sheet is a composite structure, with a heat-insulating sheet in the middle and fire-extinguishing sheets on both sides. It uses microcapsule technology to encapsulate pollution-free green fire extinguishing agent in microcapsules and uses adhesive to make sheets. When the temperature of the single battery rises to a certain temperature, the fire extinguishing agent is automatically released.
[0006] The thermal insulation fire extinguishing sheet has two functions. One is that when the temperature of the single battery rises to a certain level, the microcapsules in the fire extinguishing sheet release fire extinguishing gas to prevent the further spread of thermal runaway. The other is its excellent thermal insulation effect.
[0007] The heating, insulation, and temperature balance of battery modules are closely related to the battery structure design. The rational arrangement of the internal components of the battery module and the bonding of the individual cells to the bottom of the module shell with a high-thermal-conductivity structural adhesive ensure rapid heat conduction, reduce thermal resistance, accelerate heat transfer, minimize temperature differences between cells in different locations, and improve temperature uniformity.
[0008] The module housing adopts a lightweight design and has the characteristics of light weight and high strength.
[0009] The heating plate adopts a variable power design, arranging heating wires of different powers at different heating positions. Finally, these heating wires of different powers are encapsulated in the same heating film. Different heating powers are set according to different heating positions inside the module to ensure uniform heating of the battery module.
[0010] The FPC sampling board integrates voltage and temperature sampling functions. It is laser welded to the series copper bus through the sampling board and thermistor structure on the FPC, and also has a fuse to play a protective role.
[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0012] The high-safety battery module disclosed in this utility model isolates heat through the battery compartment in the event of thermal runaway of a single cell, slowing the transfer of heat to adjacent cells and preventing heat accumulation that could cause the battery module to catch fire or explode, thus offering high safety. Combined with the use of high-safety single cells and the module assembly structure of this utility model, the battery module is capable of withstanding needle puncture and gunshot. This utility model has a simple and compact structure, a high module specific energy, and flexible dimensions, allowing for easy deployment in spaces of varying sizes, thus possessing broad practical significance.

After assembly, the internal gaps of the module housing 1 are filled with polyurethane foam insulating adhesive 8. The insulating fire extinguishing plates and the insulating adhesive form multiple separate battery compartments. A busbar and an FPC sampling board are arranged at the top of the module, and the series and parallel connections and sampling connections between the single cells are completed by laser welding. At the same time, the single cells are bonded to the bottom of the module housing with a high thermal conductivity structural adhesive to ensure rapid heat conduction, reduce thermal resistance, accelerate heat transfer, reduce temperature differences between batteries in different positions, and improve temperature uniformity.
[0017] It should be noted that in the event of thermal runaway of a single cell, the battery compartment isolates the heat, slowing down the heat transfer to adjacent single cells, avoiding heat accumulation and causing the battery module to catch fire and explode, thus ensuring high safety.
