Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electric energy technology, and more specifically, to an energy storage device. Background Technology

[0002] Energy storage devices typically consist of a storage rack and multiple battery modules mounted on it. When the energy storage device is operating, the battery modules generate heat. Existing devices usually encapsulate the battery modules and create ventilation openings to reduce external influences and ensure proper functioning. However, because the air inlets on both sides of the ventilation opening are at the same temperature, convection is difficult to achieve, preventing the heat generated by the battery modules from being dissipated and affecting their normal operation. Utility Model Content

[0003] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides an energy storage device with the advantage of stable heat dissipation of the battery module unaffected by the environment.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: an energy storage device, comprising a base, a side support and a central support fixedly installed on the top of the base, a housing fixedly installed on the outer side of the side support, a fixed corner bracket fixedly installed on the side of the side support, screws rotatably installed on the side of the fixed corner bracket, a battery module disposed above the fixed corner bracket, a housing first disposed in the center of the top of the base, a condenser pipe fixedly installed inside the housing first, a side platform fixedly installed on the side of the base, a water pump fixedly installed on the top of the side platform, a water delivery pipe fixedly installed at the rear end of the water pump, a cooling pipe fixedly installed on the side of the water delivery pipe, and a heat conduction pipe fixedly installed on the side of the cooling pipe.

[0005] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, a return water pipe is fixedly installed at the front end of the cooling pipe, and a water pressure control valve is fixedly installed at the rear end of the return water pipe.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the heat pipe is in contact with the surface of the battery module and both ends are inserted into the cooling pipe.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the front end of the condenser tube is fixedly installed on the front side of the water pump, and the lower end of the water delivery pipe is fixedly installed on the rear side of the water pump.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the screw is inserted inside the side body bracket and engages with the contact portion of the side body bracket.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the rear end of the cooling pipe is inserted into the water supply pipe.

[0010] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0011] 1. This utility model, by setting up a housing, opens the water pump inlet valve to draw out the water stored inside the condenser tube to fill the water pump, adjusts the water pump outlet valve to control the water flow into the water supply pipeline, and opens the water pressure control valve to guide the water flow into the cooling pipe. Since the heat pipe is in contact with the heat source of the battery module, the heat generated by the battery module evaporates the fluid at the heat absorption end inside the heat pipe into a vapor phase and flows to the right end of the heat pipe. The flow of water inside the cooling pipe carries away the heat of the heat pipe, causing the vapor phase fluid inside the heat pipe to be converted into a liquid phase and flow back to the contact point between the heat pipe and the battery module, circulating repeatedly. This can achieve stable heat dissipation of the battery module without being affected by the environment.

[0012] 2. This utility model sets up a water supply pipeline, and the operation of the water pump extracts the water from inside the condenser and transports it into the water supply pipeline. The water is pressurized by the water pump and transported upward from the water supply pipeline. The water is controlled by the heat conduction pipe. The heat conduction pipe is opened to control the water flow into the cooling pipe to dissipate heat from the heat conduction pipe. The heat conduction pipe is closed to guide the water flow into the lower cooling pipe. This controls the direction of water flow and can achieve flexible control of water to accurately dissipate heat from the target heat-generating element. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0020] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this utility model provides an energy storage device, including a base 1. A side support 2 and a middle support 3 are fixedly installed on the top of the base 1. A box 16 is fixedly installed on the outer side of the side support 2. A fixed corner bracket 4 is fixedly installed on the side of the side support 2. A screw 5 is rotatably installed on the side of the fixed corner bracket 4. A battery module 6 is provided above the fixed corner bracket 4. A box 7 is provided in the middle of the top of the base 1. A condenser pipe 8 is fixedly installed inside the box 7. A side platform 9 is fixedly installed on the side of the base 1. A water pump 10 is fixedly installed on the top of the side platform 9. A water supply pipe 11 is fixedly installed at the rear end of the water pump 10. A cooling pipe 12 is fixedly installed on the side of the water supply pipe 11. A heat conduction pipe 13 is fixedly installed on the side of the cooling pipe 12.

[0021] By setting the housing 7, opening the inlet valve of the water pump 10 draws out the water stored inside the condenser tube 8 to fill the water pump 10. Adjusting the outlet valve on the back of the water pump 10 controls the water to flow into the water supply pipe 11. Opening the water pressure control valve 15 guides the water flow into the cooling pipe 12. Since the heat pipe 13 is in contact with the heat source of the battery module 6, the heat generated by the battery module 6 evaporates the fluid at the heat absorption end inside the heat pipe 13 into a vapor phase and flows to the right end of the heat pipe 13. The flow of water inside the cooling pipe 12 carries away the heat of the heat pipe 13, causing the vapor phase fluid inside the heat pipe 13 to be converted into a liquid phase and flow back to the contact point between the heat pipe 13 and the battery module 6, circulating repeatedly. This can achieve stable heat dissipation of the battery module 6 without being affected by the environment.

[0022] The cooling pipe 12 has a return water pipe 14 fixedly installed at its front end, and a water pressure control valve 15 fixedly installed at its rear end.

[0023] By setting up a water supply pipe 11, the water pump 10 extracts water from inside the condenser tube 8 and transports it into the water supply pipe 11. The water pump 10 pressurizes the water and transports it upward from the water supply pipe 11. The water is controlled by the heat conduction pipe 13. The heat conduction pipe 13 is opened to control the water flow into the cooling pipe 12 to dissipate heat from the heat conduction pipe 13. The heat conduction pipe 13 is closed to guide the water flow into the lower cooling pipe 12. This controls the direction of water flow and enables flexible control of the water to accurately dissipate heat from the target heat source.

[0024] The heat pipe 13 is in contact with the surface of the battery module 6 and its two ends are inserted into the cooling pipe 12.

[0025] By setting the heat pipe 13 to contact the surface of the battery module 6 and inserting both ends into the cooling pipe 12, the heat generated by the battery module 6 can evaporate the fluid at the heat absorption end of the heat pipe 13 into a vapor phase and flow to the right end of the heat pipe 13. The flow of water inside the cooling pipe 12 carries away the heat of the heat pipe 13.

[0026] The front end of the condenser pipe 8 is fixedly installed on the front side of the water pump 10, and the lower end of the water delivery pipe 11 is fixedly installed on the rear side of the water pump 10.

[0027] By fixing the front end of the condenser tube 8 to the front side of the water pump 10 and fixing the lower end of the water supply pipe 11 to the rear side of the water pump 10, the water stored inside the condenser tube 8 can be drawn out and filled into the water pump 10 by opening the inlet valve of the water pump 10, and the water can be controlled to flow into the water supply pipe 11 by adjusting the outlet valve at the rear side of the water pump 10.

[0028] The screw 5 is inserted inside the side body bracket 2 and engages with the contact portion of the side body bracket 2.

[0029] The position of the fixed corner bracket 4 can be fixed by rotating the screw 5, which is inserted into the side bracket 2 and engages with the contact part of the side bracket 2.

[0030] The rear end of the cooling pipe 12 is inserted into the water supply pipe 11.

[0031] By inserting the rear end of the cooling pipe 12 into the water supply pipe 11, water can be diverted from the water supply pipe 11 to the cooling pipe 12.

[0032] Working principle and usage process of this utility model:

[0033] Set up housing 7, open the inlet valve of water pump 10 to draw out the water stored inside condenser tube 8 and fill the water pump 10. Adjust the outlet valve on the back of water pump 10 to control the water to flow into water supply pipe 11. Open water pressure control valve 15 to guide water flow into cooling pipe 12. Since heat pipe 13 is in contact with the heat source of battery module 6, the heat generated by battery module 6 evaporates the fluid at the heat absorption end inside heat pipe 13 into a vapor phase and flows to the right end of heat pipe 13. The flow of water inside cooling pipe 12 carries away the heat of heat pipe 13, causing the vapor phase fluid inside heat pipe 13 to turn into a liquid phase and flow back to the contact point between heat pipe 13 and battery module 6, circulating repeatedly. This can achieve stable heat dissipation of battery module 6 without being affected by the environment.

[0034] A water supply pipe 11 is set up. The water pump 10 extracts the water from inside the condenser tube 8 and transports it into the water supply pipe 11. The water is pressurized by the water pump 10 and transported upward from the water supply pipe 11. The water is controlled by the heat conduction pipe 13. The heat conduction pipe 13 is opened to control the water flow into the cooling pipe 12 to dissipate heat from the heat conduction pipe 13. The heat conduction pipe 13 is closed to guide the water flow into the lower cooling pipe 12. This controls the direction of water flow and enables flexible control of water to accurately dissipate heat from the target heat source.
