Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application belongs to the field of pipeline technology, and in particular relates to a pipeline for new energy vehicle batteries. Background Technology

[0002] As the electrification of passenger vehicles matures, work vehicles are also beginning their electrification process. Lithium-ion batteries are currently the primary energy source for electric work vehicles, with an optimal operating temperature of 20℃-40℃. Unlike passenger and commercial vehicles, work vehicles consume more electricity, have shorter charging times, and operate in harsher environments, increasing the difficulty of battery thermal management.

[0003] Chinese Patent CN219318224U discloses an integrated piping system, a piping system, and an electric work vehicle for a temperature control system. The integrated piping system includes: a main pipe with a first boss at its end for interference fit with at least one of an inlet pipe, a return pipe, and a transfer pipe; and branch pipes, which are integral with the main pipe and have a second boss at their end for interference fit with an inlet branch and / or a return branch. The inlet and return branches are respectively connected to a target object for delivering coolant to regulate the temperature of the target object.

[0004] Although the above-mentioned pipelines achieve a heat preservation effect through the insulation layer, the connection between the main pipe and the straight pipe is not insulated, which reduces the overall heat preservation performance. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this application is to address the aforementioned technical problems by providing a pipeline for new energy vehicle batteries that can ensure the overall insulation of the pipeline.

[0006] This application provides a conduit for a new energy vehicle battery, comprising:

[0007] The main pipeline system includes the main pipeline section and branch pipeline sections;

[0008] The insulation layer is placed on the main body of the pipe;

[0009] The main pipe is provided with an elbow, the insulation layer includes a straight pipe sleeve, a bent pipe sleeve, and a tee sleeve, the insulation layer is provided with a first connecting mechanism, the first connecting mechanism is along the side wall of the insulation layer, and the ends of the straight pipe sleeve, the bent pipe sleeve, and the tee sleeve are all provided with a second connecting mechanism.

The insulation layer covers the main pipe body. Elbow sleeves and straight pipe sleeves are fitted onto the main pipe, with the elbow sleeves corresponding to the elbows. When the insulation layer's straight pipe sleeves, elbow sleeves, and tee sleeves are placed on the main pipe body, it increases the tightness of the wrapping around the main pipe body. The second connecting mechanism connects adjacent straight pipe sleeves, elbow sleeves, and tee sleeves. The first and second connecting mechanisms improve the connection stability between the insulation layer and the main pipe body. At the same time, the full wrapping of the main pipe body ensures the overall insulation effect.

The first flange between adjacent sleeves engages with the second groove, and the hook engages with the second groove, improving the tightness between adjacent straight pipe sleeves, bend pipe sleeves, and tee sleeves.

[0022] Furthermore, it also includes:

[0023] The first connector is placed on the outer wall of the tee sleeve;

[0024] The fastening part is connected to the first connecting member.

[0025] The first connector is bonded to the outer wall of the tee sleeve. The fastening part is connected to the first connector. The fastening part is used to fix and connect with other parts. The first connection is used to fix the main body of the pipeline.

[0026] Furthermore, the first connector includes:

[0034] 1. The first connecting mechanism, through the cooperation of teeth, insert strips, and T-slots, tightly connects the joint seams.

[0035] 2. Connect adjacent straight pipe sleeves, bends, and tees using the second connecting mechanism.

[0036] 3. The connection stability between the insulation layer and the main body of the pipe is improved by the first connection mechanism and the second connection mechanism, while the full wrapping of the main body of the pipe ensures the overall insulation effect. Attached Figure Description

[0047] like Figures 1-5 As shown in the figure, this application embodiment provides a pipeline for a new energy vehicle battery, including:

[0048] The main pipeline 100 includes the main pipeline 110 and the branch pipeline 120;

[0049] The insulation layer 200 is placed on the main pipe body 100;

[0050] The main pipe 110 is provided with an elbow 111, the insulation layer 200 includes a straight pipe sleeve 210, a bent pipe sleeve 220, and a tee sleeve 230, the insulation layer 200 is provided with a first connecting mechanism 300, the first connecting mechanism 300 is along the side wall of the insulation layer 200, and the ends of the straight pipe sleeve 210, the bent pipe sleeve 220, and the tee sleeve 230 are all provided with a second connecting mechanism 400.

[0051] The main pipe body 100 is formed by welding together a main pipe section 110 and branch pipe sections 120. Elbows 111 are located at both ends of the main pipe section 110 for connecting other pipe bodies. An insulation layer 200 covers the main pipe body 100. Elbow sleeves 220 and straight pipe sleeves 210 are fitted onto the main pipe section 110, with the elbow sleeves 220 corresponding to the elbows 111. When the insulation layer 200, straight pipe sleeves 210, elbow sleeves 220, and tee sleeves 230 are placed on the main pipe body 100, the tightness of the fit to the main pipe body 100 is improved. The insulation layer 200 is wrapped around the pipe body 100. The second connecting mechanism 400 connects the adjacent straight pipe sleeves 210, bend pipe sleeves 220, and tee sleeves 230. The first connecting mechanism 300 and the second connecting mechanism 400 improve the connection stability between the insulation layer 200 and the pipe body 100. At the same time, the full wrapping of the pipe body 100 ensures the overall insulation effect. The straight pipe sleeves 210, bend pipe sleeves 220, and tee sleeves 230 that make up the insulation layer 200 are made of elastic insulation materials or heat insulation materials, such as polyurethane.

[0052] Furthermore, the first connecting mechanism 300 includes:

[0053] 240mm seam;

[0054] The teeth 250 are positioned on both sides of the connecting seam 240;

[0055] 260mm plug-in strip, in the shape of an I-beam;

The first connecting mechanism 300 tightly connects the connecting seam 240 through the cooperation of the teeth 250, the plug strip 260, and the T-slot 270. Half of the plug strip 260 is inserted into the T-slot 270, and the teeth 250 on both sides of the connecting seam 240 are staggered.
