[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy storage equipment technology, specifically to a wire harness fixing mechanism, energy storage equipment, and energy storage container. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, energy storage devices have been widely used in fields such as new energy and energy-saving technologies. Energy storage devices have both high-voltage and low-voltage wiring harnesses. Furthermore, the internal space of energy storage devices is limited, and when high-voltage and low-voltage wiring harnesses are routed too close together within the internal space, interference can easily occur, leading to poor communication. Utility Model Content

[0003] Embodiments of this utility model provide a wire harness fixing mechanism, an energy storage device, and an energy storage container. The wire harness fixing mechanism provides an ordered first fixing through hole and a second fixing through hole, allowing the first wire harness and the second wire harness to be routed according to the arrangement of the through holes, thereby improving the problem of high-voltage wire harnesses and interference with low-voltage wire harnesses during routing.

[0005] The plurality of first fixing through holes are arranged at first intervals along a first direction on the main body of the mechanism;

[0006] The plurality of second fixing through holes are arranged at second intervals along a first direction on the main body of the mechanism;

[0007] Furthermore, the first fixing through hole and the second fixing through hole are arranged at a third interval in the second direction;

[0008] The plurality of first fixing through holes cooperate with the plurality of first fixing members to fix the first wiring harness of the energy storage device on the wiring harness fixing mechanism; the plurality of second fixing through holes cooperate with the plurality of second fixing members to fix the second wiring harness of the energy storage device on the wiring harness fixing mechanism.

[0009] The wire harness fixing mechanism can improve the problem of high-voltage wire harnesses and interference to low-voltage wire harnesses during wiring by providing an ordered first fixing through hole and a second fixing through hole, so that the first wire harness and the second wire harness can be routed according to the arrangement order and spacing of the through holes.

[0010] In addition, the wiring harness fixing mechanism itself can provide vertical support when fixing the first and second wiring harnesses. This can improve the problem of damage to the connector and contact structure caused by the stress on the socket of the uppermost connector of the wiring harness due to the weight of the wiring harness itself and the vertical wiring. It can reduce the occurrence of short circuits and thus improve the safety of energy storage devices.

[0011] In one embodiment, each of the first fixing members passes through a first fixing through hole to fix the first wire harness to the wire harness fixing mechanism; each of the second fixing members passes through a second fixing through hole to fix the second wire harness to the wire harness fixing mechanism.

[0012] In one embodiment, the plurality of first fasteners are disposed on the first wire harness; the plurality of second fasteners are disposed on the second wire harness.

[0013] In one embodiment, both the first fixing member and the second fixing member are cable ties, each cable tie including a fixing end and a connecting end; the fixing end includes a first end and a second end, the first end is provided with a protrusion, the fixing end is fixed to the first fixing through hole or the second fixing through hole through the protrusion, the second end is provided with a locking hole, and the connecting end surrounds the first wire harness or the second wire harness and passes through the locking hole to fix the first wire harness or the second wire harness.

[0014] In one embodiment, the main body of the mechanism includes a fixing part and a protrusion, the plurality of first fixing through holes are disposed on the fixing part, and the plurality of second fixing through holes are disposed on the protrusion.

[0015] In one embodiment, the plurality of second fixing through holes are disposed on the protrusion at a position away from the fixing portion.

[0016] In one embodiment, the energy storage device includes a first side and a second side, the first side being perpendicular to the second side, a plurality of connection ports of the energy storage device being disposed on the second side, the first wiring harness and the second wiring harness being used to connect to the plurality of connection ports, and the main body of the mechanism being disposed on the first side of the energy storage device.

[0017] In one embodiment, the main body of the mechanism is welded to the first side.

[0018] Secondly, embodiments of the present invention provide an energy storage device, which includes the wire harness fixing mechanism as described in the above embodiments.

[0019] Thirdly, embodiments of the present invention provide an energy storage container, which includes the energy storage device described in the above embodiments.

[0020] The beneficial effects of the embodiments of this utility model are as follows:

[0021] In the embodiments of this utility model, by providing an ordered first fixed through hole and a second fixed through hole through the wire harness fixing mechanism, the first wire harness and the second wire harness can be routed according to the arrangement order and spacing of the through holes, thereby improving the technical problem of high voltage wire harness and interference to low voltage wire harness during routing.

[0022] In addition, high-voltage wiring harnesses generally need to be connected to the upper battery module. Without fixing the high-voltage wiring harness, the connection between the high-voltage wiring harness and the battery module is easily damaged due to the large weight of the high-voltage wiring harness. In this application, it is possible to achieve multi-point positioning and fixing of the high-voltage wiring harness along the extension direction, which can alleviate the problem of connection damage and improve the stability of electrical connection.

Detailed Implementation

[0032] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. In addition, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for illustration and explanation of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. In the present utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper" and "lower" generally refer to the upper and lower positions of the device in actual use or operation, specifically the drawing directions in the accompanying drawings; while "inner" and "outer" refer to the outline of the device.

[0033] In the description of the embodiments of this application, technical terms such as "first" and "second" only distinguish one entity or operation from another, and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number, specific order, or primary or secondary relationship of the indicated technical features. In the description of the embodiments of this application, "multiple" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly defined.

[0034] In this document, the term "embodiment" means that a particular feature, structure, or characteristic described in connection with an embodiment may be included in at least one embodiment of this application. The appearance of this phrase in various places throughout the specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a separate or alternative embodiment mutually exclusive with other embodiments. It will be explicitly and implicitly understood by those skilled in the art that the embodiments described herein can be combined with other embodiments.

[0035] Because energy storage containers contain high-voltage DC wiring harnesses and low-voltage communication wiring harnesses, and because the internal space of energy storage containers is limited, the high-voltage and low-voltage wiring harnesses are prone to being routed too close together, which can cause electromagnetic induction interference with the normal transmission of communication signals.

[0036] In view of this, the wire harness fixing mechanism provided in this utility model embodiment improves the anti-interference capability of the energy storage device by providing multiple fixing through holes at intervals on the main body of the mechanism and using the fixing through holes to cooperate with the fixing components.

[0037] The present invention will now be described with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0038] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 A schematic diagram showing the state of the wire harness fixing mechanism when fixing the first wire harness and the second wire harness according to an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 A schematic diagram of the main body of the mechanism provided in an embodiment of this utility model.

[0039] The wiring harness fixing mechanism 10 is installed inside the energy storage device. The wiring harness fixing mechanism 10 includes multiple first fixing through holes 11, multiple second fixing through holes 12, and a mechanism body 13.

[0040] The first fixing through hole 11 is arranged at a first interval along a first direction on the main body 13 of the mechanism, and a plurality of second fixing through holes 12 are arranged at a second interval along the first direction on the main body 13 of the mechanism, and the first fixing through holes 11 and the second fixing through holes 12 are arranged at a third interval along a second direction. The plurality of first fixing through holes 11 cooperate with a plurality of first fixing members 14 to fix the first wiring harness 21 of the energy storage device to the wiring harness fixing mechanism 10; the plurality of second fixing through holes 12 cooperate with a plurality of second fixing members 15 to fix the second wiring harness 22 of the energy storage device to the wiring harness fixing mechanism 10.

[0041] The first direction can be vertical, which is usually the routing direction of the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22. The second direction can be horizontal. The first and second intervals can be set according to the interface position of each second wire harness 22 in the energy storage device.

[0042] As an example of this application, the first wiring harness 21 is a high-voltage wiring harness, and the second wiring harness 22 is a communication wiring harness.

[0043] The third interval refers to the distance between the first fixed through hole 11 and the second fixed through hole 12 in the second direction. The third interval can be set according to the safety distance between the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22, the diameter of the wire harness, and the overall dimensions of the energy storage device. By reasonably setting the third interval, it can be ensured that the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22 will not interfere with each other, while maintaining a neat layout.

[0044] The number of the first fixing through hole 11, the second fixing through hole 12, the first fixing member 14, and the second fixing member 15 can be set according to the number of interfaces of the communication harness and the size of the energy storage device. The distance between the rows of the first fixing through holes 11 and the second fixing through holes 12 can be set to 65mm or more. The harness fixing mechanism 10 provides the spaced first fixing through holes 11 and the second fixing through holes 12, so that two adjacent through holes fix a section of the first harness 21 or a section of the second harness 22, thereby fixing the entire first harness 21 and the second harness 22 by the entire harness fixing mechanism 10.

[0045] Furthermore, the wiring harness fixing mechanism 10 can provide an orderly first fixing through hole 11 and a second fixing through hole 12, so that the first wiring harness 21 and the second wiring harness 22 can be routed according to the arrangement order and spacing of the through holes, thereby improving the problem of high voltage wiring harnesses and interference to low voltage wiring harnesses during routing.

[0046] In addition, the wiring harness fixing mechanism 10 can also provide vertical support when fixing the first wiring harness 21 and the second wiring harness 22. This can improve the problem of damage to the connector and contact structure caused by the stress on the socket of the uppermost connector of the wiring harness due to the weight of the wiring harness itself and the vertical wiring. This can reduce the occurrence of short circuits and thus improve the safety of the energy storage device.

[0047] The main body 13 is the core component of the wire harness fixing mechanism 10. It can be a sheet metal part manufactured using sheet metal processing techniques. The main body 13 can be made of materials such as thin steel plate, aluminum plate, or stainless steel plate. The choice of material depends on factors such as the specific requirements of the energy storage device, the characteristics of the wire harness, and environmental conditions. For example, thin steel plate has good strength and rigidity, making it suitable for wire harnesses that bear heavy loads. Aluminum plate is lightweight and has good corrosion resistance, making it suitable for energy storage devices that require weight reduction and corrosion prevention. Stainless steel plate has excellent corrosion resistance and high-temperature resistance, making it suitable for energy storage devices operating in harsh environments.

[0048] In addition, the main body 13 can be prefabricated according to the size of the energy storage device, the diameter of the wire harness, and the wiring route, which allows for rapid on-site wiring operations and precise hole alignment, eliminating the need for on-site alignment and wire binding.

[0049] In some embodiments, please continue reading Figure 1 The first fixing member 14 and the second fixing member 15 can be independent fixing members. Each first fixing member 14 passes through a first fixing through hole 11 to fix the first wire harness 21 to the wire harness fixing mechanism 10; each second fixing member 15 passes through a second fixing through hole 12 to fix the second wire harness 22 to the wire harness fixing mechanism 10.

[0050] Each of the first fasteners 14 can be designed to pass through a first fixing through hole 11 on the main body 13 of the mechanism, thereby fixing the first wire harness 21 to the wire harness fixing mechanism 10. Similarly, each of the second fasteners 15 can also be designed to pass through a second fixing through hole 12 on the main body 13 of the mechanism, thereby fixing the second wire harness 22 to the wire harness fixing mechanism 10.

[0051] The first fixing member 14 and the second fixing member 15 can be various types of fixing devices, such as cable ties, screws, clips, clamps, bolts, etc. The selection of fixing members can depend on the diameter and material of the wire harness, the required fixing force, and the internal structure and layout requirements of the energy storage device. In practical applications, the most suitable type and quantity of fixing members can be selected according to specific circumstances to ensure the effectiveness and reliability of the wire harness fixing mechanism.

[0052] By setting independent first fixing member 14 and second fixing member 15, the wire harness fixing mechanism 10 can accurately fix different types of wire harnesses and keep the interior of the energy storage device neat and orderly. This not only improves the reliability and safety of the device, but also reduces the complexity of wire harness management and maintenance of the energy storage device.

[0053] Optionally, the first fastener 14 and the second fastener 15 can be cable ties. The following explanation assumes that both the first fastener 14 and the second fastener 15 are cable ties. Please refer to... Figures 3 to 5 , Figure 3 This is a schematic diagram of a cable tie provided for an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 A schematic diagram showing a first wire harness fixed to the main body of the mechanism by a cable tie, as provided in an embodiment of the present invention. Figure 5 A schematic diagram showing the second wire harness being fixed to the main body of the mechanism by cable ties, as provided in an embodiment of this utility model.

[0054] The cable tie 30 may include a fixed end 31 and a connecting end 32; the fixed end 31 includes a first end 311 and a second end 312, the first end 311 is provided with a protrusion, the fixed end 31 is fixed on the first fixed through hole or the second fixed through hole through the protrusion, the second end 312 is provided with a locking hole, and the connecting end 32 surrounds the first wire harness 21 or the second wire harness 22 and passes through the locking hole to fix the first wire harness 21 or the second wire harness 22.

[0055] The cable tie 30 can be made of plastic or metal. The protruding part of the first end 311 has sufficient elasticity and rigidity to securely engage with the through hole, while also facilitating disassembly and reuse. The shape and size of the locking hole at the second end 312 match the end of the connecting end 32 to ensure that the connecting end 32 can smoothly pass through the locking hole and lock, thereby securing the wire harness.

[0056] In some embodiments, the first fixing member 14 and the second fixing member 15 may also be rubber parts, buckles, or other fixing members. The first wire harness 21 or the second wire harness 22 is fixed by passing through or snapping into the fixing through hole.

[0057] In other embodiments, the first fixing member 14 and the second fixing member 15 may also be part of the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22, with multiple first fixing members 14 disposed on the first wire harness 21 and multiple second fixing members 15 disposed on the second wire harness 22. Both the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22 can be fixed to the wire harness fixing mechanism 10 by adding prefabricated fixing members.

[0058] To further facilitate installation, the first fastener 14 and the second fastener 15 may also be part of the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22. During the manufacture of the first wire harness 21 or the second wire harness 22, multiple first fasteners 14 and second fasteners 15 may be positioned at predetermined locations. These fasteners may be snap-fit, latches, hooks, or other forms of connecting devices used to engage with through holes or slots on the wire harness fixing mechanism 10, thereby securing the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22 to the wire harness fixing mechanism 10.

[0059] Please continue reading. Figure 2 The main body 13 of the mechanism may include a fixing part 131 and a protrusion 132. A plurality of first fixing through holes are provided on the fixing part 131 and a plurality of second fixing through holes are provided on the protrusion 132.

[0060] In this embodiment, the protrusion 132 is composed of multiple "n"-shaped bent protrusions. The protrusion 132 can form an additional spatial structure on the main body 13 of the mechanism. This not only increases the strength of the main body 13 of the mechanism, but also provides a suitable fixing position for the second fixing through hole 12, thereby fixing the second wire harness 22 at a preset height or position.

[0061] The second fixing through hole 12 is located on the "n"-shaped bent protrusion at a position away from the fixing part 131, so as to increase the distance between the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22 after fixing.

[0062] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 A schematic diagram of the structural state of the first wire harness 21 and the second wire harness 22 when the wire harness fixing mechanism 10 provided in the embodiment of this utility model is installed in an energy storage device (not shown in the figure).

[0063] The energy storage device includes a first side and a second side, the first side being perpendicular to the second side. Multiple connection ports of the energy storage device are located on the second side. A first wiring harness 21 and a second wiring harness 22 are used to connect to the multiple connection ports respectively. The main body 13 of the mechanism is located on the first side of the energy storage device.

[0064] The main body 13 can be fixed to the first side of the energy storage device by welding. The first side of the energy storage device can be a door panel near the first wiring harness 21 and the second wiring harness 22.
