Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to an energy storage container, and more particularly to an energy storage container with shock absorption function. Background Technology
[0002] An energy storage container is a modular device specifically designed for storing and releasing electrical energy, and is widely used in renewable energy systems, grid support, backup power, and other applications. It typically consists of one or more battery modules housed within a standardized container for easy transport and installation.
[0003] In practical applications, energy storage containers often need to be transported over long distances by road, rail, or sea. During this process, they inevitably encounter road bumps, train swaying, or ocean waves, all of which can potentially damage the internal battery packs and other delicate electronic equipment. Furthermore, even when used in a fixed location, energy storage containers may be subjected to minor vibrations from external factors (such as ground vibrations caused by nearby heavy vehicles). While these minor vibrations usually do not cause immediate serious damage, their cumulative effects over time can adversely impact the performance of the equipment.
[0004] Therefore, incorporating appropriate shock absorption features into the design of shipping containers is essential. A well-designed shock absorption system not only protects internal components from damage but also extends the lifespan of the entire system, ensuring its reliability and safety under various transportation conditions and operating environments. Utility Model Content
[0005] To overcome the aforementioned shortcomings, the technical problem to be solved is to provide an energy storage container with shock absorption function.
[0006] The technical solution is as follows: An energy storage container with shock absorption function includes a container bottom, a container body, a container top, a frame, a bottom plate, a first damper, and a buffer assembly. The frame is symmetrically connected to the top of the container bottom, and the container body is connected between the outer sides of the frame. The container body is close to the top of the container bottom, and the container top is connected to the top of the container body. Multiple first dampers are connected at intervals to the top of the container bottom. The bottom plate is connected between the telescopic ends of the first dampers. The bottom plate is limited by the front and rear side frames, and a buffer assembly is provided between the container bottom and the bottom plate.
[0007] As a further preferred option, a door is connected to the front of the box, and the door is fixed to the box by a locking rod.
[0008] As a further preferred embodiment, the cushioning assembly includes support rods, a first damping spring, a hinge frame, a support frame, and a second damping spring. Multiple support rods are connected in a straight line on both sides of the bottom of the base plate, and multiple support frames are connected in a straight line in the middle of the top of the box bottom. Hinges are slidably and rotatably connected to both sides of the support frames. The outer end of the hinge frame is slidably and rotatably connected to the support rod on the same side. A first damping spring is connected between the support rod and the outer end of the hinge frame on the same side, and a second damping spring is connected between the inner end of the hinge frame and the support frame on the same side.
[0009] As a further preferred option, a rubber sleeve is connected to one end of the support rod that contacts the hinge frame, and rubber sleeves are also connected to the two sides of the support frame that contact the hinge frame.
[0010] As a further preferred option, it also includes a connecting plate, a second damper, and a third damping spring. Multiple second dampers are connected in a straight line on both sides of the inner wall of the housing. A connecting plate is connected between the telescopic ends of the second dampers on the same side. The connecting plate is slidably connected to the inner side of the housing. Multiple third damping springs are connected at intervals between the upper and lower sides of the connecting plate and the inner side wall of the housing.
[0011] As a further preferred option, it also includes a fixing frame, a buffer block, and buffer springs. The fixing frame is connected to each of the four corners on both sides of the box, and the buffer block is slidably connected to each fixing frame. Multiple buffer springs are connected between the buffer block and the fixing frame.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are: 1. Through the cooperation of multi-layer shock absorption design, second shock absorption spring, third shock absorption spring and damper, second damper, this device can effectively absorb and manage the impact energy brought by vibration during transportation or external vibration, which not only protects the internal battery module and other precision equipment from damage, but also extends the service life of the equipment.
[0013] 2. The connecting plates on both sides of the cabinet and the buffer blocks on the corners work together with the buffer springs to provide all-round buffer protection. This not only prevents the internal equipment from colliding with the cabinet wall, but also protects the corners of the cabinet, avoiding damage caused by collisions and large vibrations.

Detailed Implementation
[0019] The technical solution will be further described below with reference to specific embodiments. It should be noted that the terms "up," "down," "left," and "right" used in this document refer only to the position of the structure shown in the corresponding drawings. The serial numbers assigned to components in this document, such as "first," "second," etc., are only used to distinguish the described objects and have no sequential or technical meaning. Unless otherwise specified, terms such as "connection" and "linkage" in this application include both direct and indirect connections (linkages).
[0020] Example: An energy storage container with shock absorption function, such as Figures 1-2 As shown, the enclosure includes a bottom 1, a body 2, a top 3, a frame 4, a base plate 5, first dampers 6, and a buffer assembly. The top of the bottom 1 is symmetrically connected to the front and rear of the frame 4. The outer sides of the frame 4 are connected to the body 2 by bolts. The body 2 is close to the top of the bottom 1. The top of the body 2 is connected to the top 3 by bolts. Six first dampers 6 are connected at intervals on the top of the bottom 1. The extension ends of the first dampers 6 are connected to the base plate 5 for buffering and shock absorption of the battery module. The base plate 5 is limited by the front and rear frame 4. The front of the body 2 is connected to a door, which is fixed to the body 2 by a locking rod. A buffer assembly is provided between the bottom 1 and the base plate 5.
[0021] like Figure 2 As shown, the buffer assembly includes support rods 7, first damping springs 8, hinge frames 9, support frames 11, and second damping springs 13. Three support rods 7 are welded in a straight line on both the left and right sides of the bottom of the base plate 5. Three support frames 11 are welded in a straight line in the middle of the top of the box bottom 1. Hinges 9 are slidably and rotatably connected to both sides of the support frames 11. The outer ends of the hinge frames 9 are slidably and rotatably connected to the support rods 7 on the same side. First damping springs 8 are connected between the support rods 7 and the outer ends of the hinge frames 9 on the same side. Second damping springs 13 are connected between the inner ends of the hinge frames 9 and the support frames 11 on the same side. A rubber sleeve is connected to the end of the support rod 7 that contacts the hinge frame 9. Rubber sleeves are also connected to the positions on both sides of the support frame 11 that contact the hinge frame 9. When the hinge frame 9 slides along the support rods 7 and support frames 11, the rubber sleeves provide a buffering effect.
[0022] like Figure 3As shown, it also includes a connecting plate 14, a second damper 15, and a third damping spring 16. Multiple second dampers 15 are connected in a straight line on both the left and right side walls of the housing 2. Connecting plates 14 for shock absorption and buffering are connected between the telescopic ends of the second dampers 15 on the same side. The connecting plate 14 is slidably connected to the inside of the housing 2. Multiple third damping springs 16 are connected at intervals between the upper and lower sides of the connecting plate 14 and the inside wall of the housing 2.
[0023] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, it also includes a fixed frame 17, a buffer block 18 and a buffer spring 19. Fixed frames 17 are welded to the four corners on the left and right sides of the box body 2. Buffer blocks 18 for protection are slidably connected to the fixed frames 17. Multiple buffer springs 19 are connected between the buffer blocks 18 and the fixed frames 17.
[0024] The battery module is installed inside the device. A buffer assembly is set between the base plate 5 and the bottom of the box 1. When the device is transported or subjected to vibration from external influences, the base plate 5 will shake up and down. At this time, the hinge frame 9 will rotate due to the shaking of the base plate 5, causing the second damping spring 13 and the first damping spring 8 to deform due to the rotation of the hinge frame 9, thereby storing energy. When the external force disappears, the second damping spring 13 and the first damping spring 8 will return to their original shape and release energy. The first damper 6 can consume some of the energy in this process, thereby effectively reducing the excessive vibration generated when the second damping spring 13 and the first damping spring 8 release energy.
[0025] Connecting plates 14 are provided on both sides inside the housing 2, which also serve as buffers to prevent internal equipment from colliding with the walls of the housing 2 during transportation. The cooperation of the third damping spring 16 and the second damper 15 can further buffer the connecting plates 14. The second damper 15 controls the movement of the third damping spring 16 by providing appropriate resistance, so that the connecting plates 14 can return to their initial position more quickly and reduce unnecessary vibration. In addition, buffer blocks 18 and buffer springs 19 are provided on the corners of the housing 2 to protect the corners of the housing 2 and prevent the corners of the housing 2 from being damaged by collisions and generating large vibration forces.
[0026] It should be understood that this embodiment is for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Furthermore, it should be understood that after reading the teachings of this invention, those skilled in the art can make various alterations or modifications to the invention, and these equivalent forms also fall within the scope defined by the appended claims.
