[0028] It should be noted that by integrating the heat anomaly detection and fire suppression functions, the bearing module can quickly respond when the lithium battery has a heat anomaly, effectively preventing the occurrence of fire accidents and protecting other lithium batteries in the three-dimensional warehouse. Specifically, the linkage of the sensing assembly 400 and the fire extinguishing device 300 realizes real-time monitoring and intelligent management of the storage state of the lithium battery, reduces the need for manual intervention, and improves warehouse efficiency. It can be understood that the bearing module of the utility model is not only suitable for the bearing module of the stacking machine, but also can be widely used in other occasions that require safe storage and transfer of lithium batteries, such as the end of the production line, the logistics center, etc.

[0029] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In some embodiments, the sensing assembly 400 is provided with at least two groups, and the two groups of sensing assemblies 400 are located at the top corners of the container cavity 101 and are oppositely arranged. This layout can ensure all-round monitoring of different areas in the container cavity 101, effectively avoiding monitoring blind spots caused by unreasonable sensor layout. It should be noted that in actual application, the number and position of the sensing assembly 400 can be appropriately adjusted according to the size and shape of the container cavity 101 to achieve the best monitoring effect.

[0030] Referring to Figure 2 Specifically, the sensing assembly 400 includes a temperature sensor 410 and / or a smoke sensor 420. The temperature sensor 410 can monitor the temperature in the container cavity 101 in real time, and once the temperature exceeds the preset safety threshold, an alarm is triggered and a fire suppression program is started. The smoke sensor 420 can detect whether smoke is generated in the container cavity 101 and timely discover potential fire hazards. The combination of the two sensors can greatly improve the accuracy and reliability of fire warning.

[0031] In other embodiments, in addition to the temperature sensor 410 and / or the smoke sensor 420, an infrared thermal imaging sensor array can also be introduced to monitor the heat anomaly in the container cavity 101. The infrared thermal imaging sensor array can monitor the temperature distribution at each position in the container cavity 101 in real time, and through image processing technology, it can accurately identify the area with abnormal temperature rise, i.e. the potential fire hazard point. This sensor array not only has high precision and high sensitivity, but also can realize full coverage monitoring of the inside of the container cavity 101, further improving the accuracy and reliability of fire warning.

[0032] Referring to Figure 1 and Figure 3It should be noted that the closing door 200 comprises a casing 210, a roller 220, a driving member and a fireproof cloth 230. The roller 220 is rotatably connected to the casing 210, the driving member is connected to and drives the roller 220 to rotate, and the fireproof cloth 230 is sleeved on the roller 220. When it is needed to close the opening 102, the driving member drives the roller 220 to rotate, and the fireproof cloth 230 is unwound and covers the opening 102. The closing door 200 has a simple structure and is convenient to operate, and can quickly and effectively close the opening 102 to prevent the spread of fire.

[0033] Further, the bottom of the casing 210 is provided with a bracket 211 connected to the casing 100, and the roller 220 is arranged on the bracket 211. The bracket 211 has a through opening 212 through which the fireproof cloth 230 is unwound or wound. In order to guide the fireproof cloth 230 to smoothly pass through the through opening 212, the bracket 211 is further provided with an arc-shaped support plate 213 inclined towards the through opening 212. When the fireproof cloth 230 is unwound or wound, the arc-shaped support plate 213 can abut against the fireproof cloth 230, and plays a guiding role, so as to ensure that the fireproof cloth 230 can be evenly covered on the opening 102 or wound on the roller 220.

[0034] In other embodiments, the closing door 200 can not only be vertically lifted on the upper side of the opening 102, but also be a side sliding type. Specifically, the closing door 200 is installed on one side of the opening 102, and is horizontally slid through a rail and a driving device to close or open the opening 102. The side sliding type closing door 200 can save space above, and is suitable for occasions with limited height. At the same time, the sliding door can also be more flexible to adapt to openings 102 of different sizes and shapes.

[0035] In other embodiments, the closing door 200 can also be a bottom roller shutter type. Specifically, the fireproof cloth 230 or similar material is rolled up from the bottom of the opening 102 to form a closure. The bottom roller shutter type closing door 200 can control the lifting of the roller shutter through a motor or a manual device to realize the closing and opening of the opening 102, and is suitable for occasions where the opening 102 needs to be frequently opened and closed, such as logistics channels or equipment entrances and exits.

[0036] Further, one or more layers of high-temperature-resistant and fireproof materials, such as ceramic fiber and aluminum silicate fiber, can be added to the fireproof cloth 230 or the roller shutter. At the same time, the frame and the driving device of the closing door 200 can be reinforced to improve the fire resistance and explosion resistance.

[0037] It should be noted that in some embodiments, the bearing module is provided with two opposite openings 102, and one closing door 200 is arranged at each opening 102. Meanwhile, a spray port is arranged at the top of the cavity 101 near each opening 102. This layout can ensure that the fire-retardant material can be quickly and accurately sprayed to different areas in the cavity 101 when a fire occurs, effectively inhibiting the spread of the fire. The linkage of the closing door 200 and the fire extinguishing device 300 can quickly respond when a fire occurs, quickly close the opening 102 and release the fire-retardant material, effectively inhibit the spread of the fire, and protect other lithium batteries in the three-dimensional warehouse.

[0038] In some embodiments, the fire extinguishing device 300 further includes a fire extinguishing bottle mounted on the side of the shell 100. The fire extinguishing bottle can exist independently of the cavity 101, which not only saves the internal space of the cavity 101, but also facilitates maintenance and replacement. Specifically, the fire extinguishing bottle is connected to the spray port through a pipeline. The pipeline needs to have sufficient strength and corrosion resistance to ensure that the structure remains intact and the fire extinguishing agent can be smoothly delivered under fire conditions. The pipeline also needs to consider minimizing pressure loss to ensure that the fire extinguishing agent can be efficiently and quickly delivered to the spray port. Further, valves are arranged between the fire extinguishing bottle and the pipeline, and between the pipeline and the spray port. These valves can be controlled to open and close manually or automatically to achieve precise release of the fire extinguishing agent. In order to ensure that the fire extinguishing agent can be uniformly and stably sprayed, the fire extinguishing bottle can be equipped with a pressure regulating device to automatically adjust the pressure in the pipeline according to the pressure change in the fire extinguishing bottle, thereby maintaining the stability of the fire extinguishing agent flow and pressure at the spray port. Specifically, the fire extinguishing bottle is fixedly connected to the side of the shell 100 by a clamp. In other embodiments, the fire extinguishing bottle is fixed to the side of the shell 100 by a special bracket 211, which can realize quick disassembly of the fire extinguishing bottle to facilitate regular inspection and maintenance, replacement of the fire extinguishing bottle. In order to reduce the impact and vibration of the fire extinguishing bottle under fire or other extreme conditions, a buffer and damping device can be arranged on the bracket 211. These devices can absorb part of the impact energy to protect the fire extinguishing bottle and its connected pipeline from damage.

[0039] Specifically, the bearing module further comprises a controller. The controller can acquire the signal of the sensing assembly 400 and determine whether the closure door 200 needs to be closed and the fire extinguishing device 300 needs to be started according to the signal. Once the sensing assembly 400 detects a thermal anomaly or a fire hazard, the controller immediately issues an instruction to control the closure door 200 to close and synchronously release the fire-retarding material, thereby achieving rapid response and effective control of the fire. The controller can automatically acquire the signal of the sensing assembly 400 and respond, realizing intelligent management of the bearing module, reducing the need for manual intervention, improving warehouse efficiency, and through integrated thermal anomaly detection and fire-retarding functions, the utility model can monitor temperature, smoke and other parameters in the cavity 101 in real time, and once an anomaly is found, the fire-fighting program is started immediately, effectively avoiding the occurrence of fire accidents.

[0040] The second aspect of the utility model further proposes a stacking machine, which comprises the bearing module. The stacking machine can monitor and control fire risks in real time when transferring lithium batteries, ensuring the safety and reliability of the warehouse process.

[0041] The utility model further proposes a lithium battery vertical warehouse, which comprises the stacking machine. The vertical warehouse can comprehensively monitor and effectively control fire risks when storing and transferring lithium batteries, improving the safety and efficiency of the overall warehouse system.

[0042] The embodiments of the utility model are described in detail above in combination with the drawings, but the utility model is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the purpose of the utility model.
