DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0020] The utility model will be explained further in detail below in combination with the drawings and specific embodiments.
[0021] Embodiment one;
[0022] Figures 1-3 As shown in a kind of fixed Busbar structure applied to energy storage battery CCS component, including injection moulding isolation plate 100 and the busbar 200 of joint in injection moulding isolation plate 100, form a kind of through plug-in to replace double-sided adhesive structure connection or laser welding connection mode, specific structure as follows:
[0023] Two opening grooves 110 with limit plate body 111 are set in the front side of injection moulding isolation plate 100, opening groove 110 is used for the plug-in of busbar 200, opening groove 110 adopts rectangular groove, in other embodiments, opening groove 110 can adopt other shapes that can realize the plug-in of busbar 200, such as trapezoidal groove or positive direction groove, specifically, two opening grooves 110 are respectively first opening groove 110a and second opening groove 110b set in the front side end of injection moulding isolation plate 100, in the embodiment, the structure size of first opening groove 110a and second opening groove 110b is identical, and both form plug-in interface for the plug-in of busbar 200 to front side, and the matched busbar 200 of joint forms limit along X axis direction.
[0024] It should be noted that first opening groove 110a and second opening groove 110b are both rising grooves set on injection moulding isolation plate 100, and the top plate of rising groove is as limit plate body 111, it should be understood that limit plate body 111 is higher than injection moulding isolation plate 100 due to the effect of rising groove, thus, limit plate body 111 and injection moulding isolation plate 100 form misaligned spacing space up and down, and this misaligned spacing space forms limit along Z axis direction to the matched busbar 200 of joint. Limit groove 130 is between two opening grooves 110, and limit groove 130 is formed between the side wall of first opening groove 110a and second opening groove 110b close to each other, and busbar 200 is simultaneously jointed in limit groove. In the example, misaligned spacing space is formed between the bottom plate of limit groove 130 and the top plate of opening groove 110, that is, the interval between injection moulding isolation plate 100 and limit plate body 111 up and down, injection moulding isolation plate 100 forms lower barrier to busbar 200, and limit plate body 111 forms upper barrier to busbar 200.
[0025] The side wall of the open slot 110 extends outwardly a clamping joint 120, the clamping joint 120 includes a resilient rocker arm 121 extending forwardly from the side wall of the open slot 110, a limiting clamping convex 122 is connected on the resilient rocker arm 121, a limiting clamping groove 210 matched with the limiting clamping convex 122 is arranged on the end edge of the busbar 200, when the busbar 200 is clamped in the open slot 110, the limiting clamping convex 122 and the limiting clamping groove 210 are clamped with each other. It should be noted that the resilient rocker arm 121 of the clamping joint 120 is located on the side wall of the distal end of the first open slot 110a and the second open slot 110b, respectively, so that the end edge of the busbar 200 can be clamped, and thus the clamping joint 120 limits the matched busbar 200 in the Y-axis direction.
[0026] Embodiment two;
[0027] Figure 4 A kind of fixed Busbar structure applied to energy storage battery CCS component is shown, including injection moulding isolation plate 100 and clamping busbar on injection moulding isolation plate 100, form a kind of through plug-in to replace double-sided adhesive structure connection or laser welding connection mode, specific structure is as follows:
[0028] Two open slots 110 with limiting plate body 111 are opened on the front side of injection moulding isolation plate 100, open slot 110 is used for the plug-in of busbar 200, open slot 110 adopts rectangular slot, in other embodiments, open slot 110 can adopt other shapes that can realize the plug-in of busbar 200, such as trapezoidal slot or positive direction slot, open slot 110 limits the matched busbar 200 in the X-axis direction.
[0029] It should be noted that open slot 110 is the rising slot opened on injection moulding isolation plate 100, the top plate of the rising slot is as limiting plate body 111, it should be understood that due to the effect of the rising slot, limiting plate body 111 is higher than injection moulding isolation plate 100, injection moulding isolation plate 100 forms the lower cover of open slot 110, thus, limiting plate body 111 and injection moulding isolation plate 100 form the dislocation interval space up and down, which limits the matched busbar 200 in the Z-axis direction.
[0030] Different from embodiment one, in the present example, the dislocation interval space is formed between the injection moulding isolation plate 100 below the open slot and the top plate of the open slot 110, that is, the interval between injection moulding isolation plate 100 and limiting plate body 111 up and down, injection moulding isolation plate 100 forms the lower barrier of busbar 200, and limiting plate body 111 forms the upper barrier of busbar 200.
[0031] A snap-fit connector 120 extends outward from the sidewall of the opening slot 110. The snap-fit connector 120 includes an elastic rocker arm 121 extending forward from the sidewall of the opening slot 110. A limiting snap protrusion 122 is connected to the elastic rocker arm 121. A limiting slot 210 matching the limiting snap protrusion 122 is provided on the end edge of the busbar 200. When the busbar 200 is snapped into the opening slot 110, the limiting snap protrusion 122 and the limiting slot 210 snap into each other. The snap-fit connector 120 limits the matching busbar 200 in the Y-axis direction.
[0032] In summary, this patent effectively solves the problems of low busbar fixing efficiency, insufficient precision, high cost, and long installation time mentioned in the background art by designing a novel busbar fixing structure for CCS modules in energy storage batteries. The use of plug-in connections instead of traditional double-sided adhesive or laser welding simplifies the busbar installation process. An opening groove and a limiting groove with a limiting plate body are designed on the injection-molded separator plate, providing limiting in the X and Z axis directions for the busbar and ensuring precise fixing. The elastic rocker arm and limiting protrusion extending from the sidewall of the opening groove engage with the limiting groove on the busbar end edge, achieving limiting in the Y axis direction while ensuring connection reliability.
[0033] The following benefits exist:
[0034] The plug-in connection eliminates the need to wait for double-sided adhesive to cure or perform laser welding, significantly reducing installation time.
[0035] This avoids the costs of materials and processes required for double-sided tape and laser welding, helping to reduce overall production costs.
[0036] The limiting design ensures precise installation of the Busbar, improving the consistency and performance of the battery module.
[0037] The plug-in design makes busbar replacement and maintenance quick and easy.
[0038] The design flexibility of the slotted opening allows for adaptation to different busbar shapes, increasing the applicability of the component.
[0039] Overall, this patent provides an efficient, precise, and cost-effective method for fixing busbars, which helps improve the manufacturing quality and production efficiency of battery modules while reducing costs, meeting the battery module industry's demand for cost reduction and efficiency improvement.
[0040] The above embodiments are not intended to limit the present utility model, nor is the present utility model limited to the examples given above. Any changes, modifications, additions or substitutions made by those skilled in the art within the scope of the technical solution of the present utility model are also within the protection scope of the present utility model.
