[0032] Battery packs for electric vessels are generally installed in two ways: inside the cabin or on the deck. Installing the battery pack inside the cabin offers the advantages of easier maintenance and management while providing adequate protection. However, installing the battery pack inside the cabin also results in poor ventilation and heat dissipation. Furthermore, battery replacement requires transporting the battery pack from the cabin to the deck, making it inconvenient to replace the battery pack. While installing the battery pack on the deck provides better ventilation and heat dissipation and facilitates replacement, the battery pack on the deck is more susceptible to collision with other objects during navigation, increasing the risk of damage.
[0033] In response to the above technical problems, the utility model provides a semi-enclosed wall structure of a battery exchange system and an electric ship, which can fully protect the battery pack on the deck, avoid collision between the battery pack and other objects on the deck to a certain extent, and reduce the risk of damage to the battery pack by impact from external objects.
[0034] The following describes in detail the overall structure, working principle and technical effects of the semi-enclosed wall structure of the battery exchange system and the battery exchange ship provided by the present invention through embodiments and in combination with the accompanying drawings.
[0035] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The present invention provides an electric vessel suitable for inland waterway navigation, port operations, and near-shore fishing. Compared to traditional fuel-powered vessels, electric vessels offer significant environmental advantages. Furthermore, the electric vessel provided by the present invention provides adequate protection for the battery pack mounted on the deck, facilitating removal, installation, and replacement of the battery pack while minimizing the risk of damage from external impacts and enhancing the safety of the battery pack when mounted on the deck.
[0036] The electric ship provided by the present invention includes a semi-enclosed wall structure of a battery exchange system and a deck. The semi-enclosed wall structure of the battery exchange system is installed on the deck, and the battery pack is installed in the semi-enclosed wall structure of the battery exchange system. The battery pack is protected by the semi-enclosed wall structure of the battery exchange system.
[0037] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The utility model provides a semi-enclosed wall structure of a battery exchange system, which is applied to an electric ship where a battery pack is installed on the deck, so as to protect the battery pack on the deck of the electric ship and improve the safety of the battery pack.
[0038] A semi-enclosed structure of a battery exchange system includes a battery exchange frame 100, a battery bracket 200, and a protective member 300. In this embodiment, the battery exchange frame 100 is a rectangular steel frame structure. The battery exchange frame 100 is detachably mounted on the deck by bolts, and the internal hollow space of the battery exchange frame 100 is a battery exchange compartment 110. The battery bracket 200 is arranged on the battery exchange frame 100 and is located at the bottom of the battery exchange compartment 110. The battery bracket 200 provides a mounting base for the battery pack and connects the positive and negative poles of the battery pack to conduct the battery pack with the ship's electrical system. The protective member 300 is arranged on the battery exchange frame 100. The protective member 300 separates the battery exchange compartment 110 from the external environment, thereby protecting the battery pack installed on the battery bracket 200 in the battery exchange compartment 110.
[0039] By setting up the battery exchange frame 100, the battery exchange frame 100 can be detachably installed on the deck, thereby facilitating the installation and disassembly of the battery exchange frame 100. Furthermore, a protective part 300 is provided on the battery exchange frame 100, and the protective part 300 separates the battery exchange compartment 110 inside the battery exchange frame 100 from the external environment. When the battery pack is installed on the battery exchange frame 100 in the battery exchange compartment 110, the protective part 300 protects the battery pack, thereby preventing the battery pack from colliding with other objects on the deck during the navigation of the electric ship and being damaged to a certain extent, thereby improving the safety of the battery pack.
[0040] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some optional embodiments, the protective member 300 includes a top plate 310 and a mesh plate 320. The top plate 310 is detachably mounted on the top of the battery swap frame 100. The top plate 310 serves to shield the battery swap compartment 110 from rain and falling objects. The mesh plate 320 is detachably mounted on one side of the battery swap frame 100. The mesh plate 320 serves to shield the battery swap compartment 110 and prevent other objects on the deck from colliding with the battery pack. At the same time, the mesh plate 320 allows sufficient air flow between the battery swap compartment 110 and the external environment, facilitating ventilation and heat dissipation of the battery pack. In order to further enhance the ventilation and heat dissipation effect of the battery pack in the battery swap compartment 110, an exhaust port 330 is provided on the upper portion of the mesh plate 320. Furthermore, a ventilation device (not shown in the figure) is also provided on the battery swap frame 100. The ventilation device is located in the battery swap compartment 110 and is used to ventilate the battery swap compartment 110. In this embodiment, the ventilation device can be an explosion-proof marine axial flow fan.
[0041] Please refer to Figure 1 - Figure 3Furthermore, in order to enhance the protective effect of the protective member 300 on the battery pack, the protective member 300 also includes reinforcing ribs 340. A plurality of reinforcing ribs 340 are obliquely arranged on the side of the battery swap frame 100. The reinforcing ribs 340 serve to enhance the structural strength of the battery swap frame 100, thereby enhancing the protective effect on the battery pack in the battery swap compartment 110.
[0042] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 Furthermore, in order to facilitate the connection between the battery pack and the electrical system of the electric ship, a distribution room 400 is installed on one side of the battery exchange frame 100. The distribution room 400 is installed on the side of the battery exchange frame 100 away from the mesh plate 320, and the distribution room 400 is connected to the battery bracket 200.
[0043] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 To facilitate monitoring of the battery status within the battery swap compartment 110, a monitoring device 600 is installed on the battery swap frame 100. The monitoring device 600 provides 24-hour real-time monitoring of the battery packs within the battery swap compartment 110, allowing the crew to instantly monitor the battery pack status. Furthermore, an emergency lighting system is also installed on the battery swap frame 100 to facilitate inspection, maintenance, and replacement of the battery packs by the crew in the event of a sudden power outage.
[0044] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In order to facilitate the lifting of the battery swap frame 100, a plurality of lifting rings 500 are provided on the top of the battery swap frame 100. The lifting rings 500 facilitate the connection between the lifting equipment and the battery swap frame 100, thereby facilitating the installation, disassembly and maintenance of the battery swap frame 100 through the lifting equipment.
[0045] Furthermore, electric vessels of different tonnages require different battery capacities. Therefore, at least one battery swap frame 100 is provided on the deck. When two or more battery swap frames 100 are provided on the deck, the multiple battery swap frames 100 are arranged along the same straight line, and adjacent battery swap frames 100 are detachably connected. By providing one or more battery swap frames 100 to accommodate electric vessels of different tonnages, and the design of the battery swap frame 100 for easy lifting further expands the applicability of the semi-enclosed wall structure of the battery swap system.
[0046] To sum up, the implementation principle of the semi-enclosed structure of the battery exchange system and the electric ship provided by the present invention is: the battery exchange frame 100 can be detachably installed on the deck, so as to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the battery exchange frame 100. Furthermore, a protective part 300 is provided on the battery exchange frame 100, and the protective part 300 separates the battery exchange compartment 110 inside the battery exchange frame 100 from the external environment. When the battery pack is installed on the battery exchange frame 100 in the battery exchange compartment 110, the protective part 300 protects the battery pack, and to a certain extent avoids the battery pack from colliding with other objects on the deck during the navigation of the electric ship and being damaged, thereby improving the safety of the battery pack.
[0047] The above is only a specific implementation method of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited to this. Any changes or replacements that can be easily thought of by any technician familiar with this technical field within the technical scope disclosed in the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
