DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0024] The following is a detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention, such as the shapes, structures, positions and connections of the various components involved, the functions and working principles of the various components, etc., by referring to the accompanying drawings.

[0025] As attached Figure 1 -Attached Figure 3 As shown, the present invention is a ship container battery frame comprising two I-shaped bottom beams 1, with multiple bottom beams 2 disposed between them. One end of each bottom beam 2 is fixedly connected to the web 13 and lower wing plate 14 of one bottom beam 1, while the other end of each bottom beam 2 is fixedly connected to the web 13 and lower wing plate 14 of another bottom beam 1. A bottom plate 3 is disposed on the multiple bottom beams 2. The above structure addresses the shortcomings of the prior art and provides an improved technical solution. When setting up the structure, two bottom side beams 1 are set. Both bottom side beams 1 are I-shaped structures. I-beams can be selected for the bottom side beams 1. Multiple box bottom beams 2 are set between the two bottom side beams 1. The bottom side beams 1 and the box bottom beams 2 are welded together. When the two bottom side beams 1 and the box bottom beams 2 are connected, their structure is limited. That is, one end of each box bottom beam 2 is fixedly connected to the web 13 and lower wing plate 14 of one bottom side beam 1, and the other end of each box bottom beam 2 is fixedly connected to the web 13 and lower wing plate 14 of another bottom side beam 1. That is, the ground of the box bottom beam 2 and the lower wing plate 14 of the bottom side beam 1 are in the same plane, and the load-bearing is reliably achieved. The upper surfaces of the multiple box bottom beams 2 are in the same plane, and the upper surfaces of the multiple box bottom beams 2 are provided with bottom plates 3, which are used to carry battery modules. In this way, the bottom structure of the ship container battery frame has good strength, can effectively bear the weight of the battery module, and will not deform when subjected to force. The bottom side beams 1 are made of I-beams, avoiding the problem of increasing the weight of the container by using square steel as the bottom side beams, which increases the overall thickness, thereby achieving lightweight shipping containers. The ship container battery frame described in this utility model has a simple structure, is easy to manufacture, effectively ensures overall strength, and eliminates the problem of plastic deformation and damage to the container batteries during transportation. At the same time, the bottom side beams use an I-shaped structure to reduce material consumption, avoid weight increase, and achieve lightweight container batteries.

[0026] Each end of each bottom beam 1 is connected to a container corner fitting 5. The two container corner fittings 5 ​​at one end of each bottom beam 1 are connected by a front bottom beam 4, and the two container corner fittings 5 ​​at the other end of each bottom beam 1 are connected by a rear bottom beam 15. Each container corner fitting 5 is mounted on a column 6, with a container corner fitting 5 mounted on the top of each column 6. An upper beam 7 is mounted above each bottom beam 1. One end of each upper beam 7 is connected to a container corner fitting 7 at the top of one column 6, and the other end of each upper beam 7 is connected to a container corner fitting 5 at the top of another column 6. This structure facilitates column 6 connection and provides high overall strength.

[0027] The two container corner fittings 5 ​​at the upper ends of the two front columns 6 are connected by a front upper beam 8, and the two container corner fittings 5 ​​at the upper ends of the two rear columns 6 are connected by a rear upper beam 16. In the above structure, the two bottom side beams and the front and rear bottom beams form the bottom frame of the square structure, and the two top measuring beams and the front and rear upper beams form the top frame of the square frame.

[0028] A partition 10 is provided between the two bottom side beams 1 and the two upper side beams 7. One side of the partition 10 is the electrical compartment, and the other side of the partition 10 is the battery compartment. In the above structure, the partition 10 plays an isolating role.

[0029] The front of the marine container battery frame is provided with a front closing plate 17, the rear of the marine container battery frame is provided with a rear closing plate 18, the left side of the marine container battery frame is provided with a left closing plate, and the right side of the marine container battery frame is provided with a right closing plate 19. In the above structure, a closing plate is provided in each direction of the marine container battery frame to form a closed structure.

[0030] Multiple top angle steels 9 are connected between the two upper side beams 7. These top angle steels 9 have a triangular or cross-shaped cross-section. In this structure, each end of the top angle steel 9 is welded to a corresponding upper side beam 7. The upper side beams can also be configured as an I-beam structure, using I-beams to meet strength requirements while reducing overall weight, meeting the lightweight requirements of marine container batteries.

[0031] The partition 10 is equipped with multiple partition angle steels 12 on the side closest to the battery compartment. The upper portion of each partition angle steel 12 is connected to a top angle steel 9, and the lower portion of each partition angle steel 12 is connected to the bottom plate 3. Partition columns 11 are installed on the sides of the partition 10. The upper end of each partition column 11 is connected to an upper side beam 7, and the lower end of each partition column 11 is connected to a lower bottom beam 1. Multiple battery modules are arranged in the battery compartment. This structure provides enhanced strength through the partition angle steels 12 and partition columns 11.

[0032] The ship container battery frame described in the present invention has an I-beam as the bottom side beam 1, and the box bottom beam 2 is connected between the two bottom side beams 1, and the bottom surface of the box bottom beam 2 is in the same plane as the upper surface of the lower wing plate of the bottom side beam. The bottom plate 3 is laid on the box bottom beam 2. The distance between each box bottom beam 2 in the battery compartment is smaller because it needs to bear the weight of the battery module to increase the strength of the bottom. The distance between each box bottom beam 2 in the electrical compartment can be larger because the weight of the electrical components is small, which meets the load-bearing requirements and makes the most reasonable use of the box bottom beam. The bottom front beam 4 is located at both ends of the two bottom side beams 1, and the bottom rear beam is located at the rear end of the two bottom side beams 1. The box body corner pieces 5 are used to connect the front bottom beam 4 and the bottom side beam 1 respectively. The column 6 is connected to the bottom box body corner piece 5 and is perpendicular to the bottom side beam 1. The upper part of the column is connected to the container corner piece 5 in the top. The top includes two upper side beams 7, a front upper beam 8, and a rear upper beam 16. The two upper side beams 7, the front upper beam 8, and the rear upper beam 16 are connected to the container corner fittings 5 ​​to form a rectangular top frame. A partition 10 is used to separate the electrical compartment and the battery compartment. At the top of the battery compartment, multiple top angle steels 9 are set between the two upper side beams 7 to increase the structural strength of the battery compartment area. The partition 10 and the side door column 11 are used to separate the electrical compartment and the battery compartment. A number of partition angle steels 12 are placed on both sides of the battery compartment. The partition angle steels 12 connect the upper side beams 7 and the lower bottom beam 1 to enhance strength. In this way, the overall strength of the ship container battery frame is reliably guaranteed, and it will not be easily deformed during transportation or stress, eliminating the problem of plastic deformation of the container and causing damage. The use of I-beam structure as the bottom side beam can avoid the problem of simply increasing the thickness of square steel to increase strength but causing an increase in the weight of the container, thereby achieving lightweight ship containers.

[0033] The above is an exemplary description of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. It is obvious that the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-mentioned method. As long as various improvements are made using the method concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the concept and technical solution of the present invention are directly applied to other occasions without improvement, they are all within the scope of protection of the present invention.
