[0002] The liquid filling port connector of a liquid-cooled energy storage system is a critical component ensuring efficient filling and sealing of the cooling medium, and its reliability directly affects the operational stability of the thermal management system. Currently, commercially available liquid filling port connectors typically employ a split design, mainly composed of five parts: a CQC20 quick-connect connector, a fixing sheet metal, a sealing gasket, a valve, and an SAE connector. This structure has the following technical drawbacks in practical applications:

[0003] 1. Existing split designs require multiple independent components to be connected sequentially via threads or welding. The assembly process involves multiple thread tightening and welding operations. Cumulative tolerances between components can easily lead to coaxiality deviations, requiring repeated adjustments to the mounting angle of the fixed sheet metal to adapt to the interface, significantly increasing assembly time and labor costs.

[0004] 2. Each component relies on a sealing gasket to achieve end face sealing. Under frequent temperature alternation conditions, the sealing gasket is prone to creep and loosening, resulting in micro-leakage at the interface.

[0005] 3. Low space utilization: The split structure occupies a large amount of space. Utility Model Content

[0028] The outer edge of the first connecting portion 202 is provided with a first welding groove 203. The bottom diameter of the first welding groove 203 is smaller than the outer edge diameter of the first connecting portion 202. The first welding groove 203 is located at the end of the first connector 2 near the valve body 101 and connects with the end face of the valve body 101. Figures 1-3 As shown, the second connecting part 202 is provided with a second welding groove 104. The second welding groove 104 is located at the end of the valve body 101 near the first connector 2 and is in contact with the end face of the first connector 2. After the first connector 2 and the valve body 101 are connected, the first welding groove 203 and the second welding groove 204 are connected to form an annular welding groove 5. At this time, the splice is welded in the welding groove 5 so that the flux fills the annular welding groove 5.

[0031] The fixing part 301 is located between the valve body 101 and the second connector 3. The valve body 101, the fixing part 301 and the second connector 3 are integrally precision cast. After the above connection and forming method, the two ends of the valve 1 are respectively connected to the first connector 2 and the second connector 3 in an integral manner, reducing the number of detachable parts and greatly simplifying the structure. The quick-connect assembly of the liquid injection port is connected as a whole through three parts, reducing the number of failure points.

The valve stem 601 passes through the wall of the valve body 101 and is connected to a handle 602 outside the valve body 101. A sealing ring is provided between the valve stem 601 and the valve body 101.

[0033] The valve core 6 has a valve hole, and the valve body 101 has a limiting ring 603 that cooperates with the valve core 6. The limiting ring 603 is fixed in the through hole of the valve body 101 on the side near the second connector 3. The limiting ring 603 is integrally formed with the valve body 101. A first damping ring 604 is provided between one side of the valve core 6 and the limiting ring 603, and a second damping ring 605 is provided on the other side. The valve body 101 has a limiting nut 606 that abuts against the second damping ring 605. The limiting nut 606 is located on the side of the valve core 6 near the first connector 2, and the limiting nut 606 and the through hole in the valve body 101 are adjustablely fixed by a threaded connection.

[0034] During assembly, first, the first damping ring 605 is installed into the integrally formed valve body 101 and the second connector 3, and abuts against the limiting ring 603. Then, the valve core 6 is installed into the valve body 101, and the valve stem 601 is installed onto the valve core 6 from top to bottom.
