[0020] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments. This embodiment is based on the technical solution of the present invention and provides detailed implementation methods and specific operating procedures; however, the scope of protection of the present invention is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0021] refer to Figure 1 , 2 As shown, this utility model provides a skin-type battery tray, including a frame 2 and a shell 2. The frame 2 includes side beams 21 and longitudinal beams 22. The longitudinal beams 22 are vertically connected to two opposite side beams 21. In this example, there are three longitudinal beams 22, which are arranged parallel to each other. The frame 2 is welded from high-strength steel. After welding, the frame 2 is subjected to electrophoretic treatment. The tensile strength grade of the selected steel is not less than 600MPa, which meets the requirements of strength, rigidity and collision and compression safety of the battery pack tray.

[0022] The shell 1 includes an outer skin 11 and an inner skin 12 that are generally shallow basin-shaped and have a basin edge and a basin mouth. The outer skin 11 and the inner skin 12 are bonded together at the basin edge.

[0023] The outer skin 11 and inner skin 12 are tightly fitted to the frame 2 to form a complete sealed structure. This design reduces the number of sealing points in the structure and lowers the risk of battery box leakage. It can also effectively prevent external gases and moisture from entering the battery box, thereby protecting the battery pack from environmental factors such as moisture and corrosion. The outer skin 11 and inner skin 12 are connected to the battery box by welding, which ensures the sealing performance of the connection. In addition, the skin material usually has a certain degree of elasticity, which can adapt to the deformation generated during the welding process, thereby better ensuring the sealing performance of the battery box.

[0024] Laser cutting and CNC bending are used to process the outer skin 11 and inner skin 12 to form the required shape and size. During processing, the precision and flatness of the outer skin 11 and inner skin 12 must be ensured. According to design requirements, welding, riveting, or bolting are used to assemble the various parts of the frame 2. The strength and rigidity of the frame 2 must meet the requirements. Welding is used to connect the outer skin 11 and inner skin 12 to the frame 2. During the connection process, good sealing must be ensured to prevent gas leakage. Suitable sealing materials are selected, and sealing strips are installed at the connection between the skin and the frame 2. During installation, the sealing strips must be tightly fitted to the parts to ensure a tight seal at the connection.

[0025] refer to Figure 3 As shown, the side beam 21 is equipped with a support beam, and the longitudinal beam 22 includes a top plate 221 and a bottom plate 222. Two inclined upper plates 223 and lower plates 224 are provided between the top plate 221 and the bottom plate 222. The upper plates 223 and lower plates 224 are connected to the top plate 221 and the bottom plate 222, thus forming a high-strength rectangular frame diagonal bracing structure. Under collision conditions, this structure can improve the battery pack shell's resistance to compression and intrusion, thereby improving the overall collision safety. According to the design of the frame 2, a reasonable and appropriate skin structure is designed. The skin structure can completely cover part of the frame 2 and leave necessary heat dissipation holes and assembly holes.

[0026] Compared with the prior art, this utility model has strong integrity. The skin-type battery tray usually adopts an integrated design. Through the tight combination of the skin and the frame 2, a complete sealed structure is formed. This design reduces the number of sealing points and reduces the risk of leakage. It has good sealing performance. The skin and the box are connected by welding process, which ensures the sealing performance of the connection. In addition, the skin material usually has a certain degree of elasticity, which can adapt to the deformation generated during the welding process, thereby better ensuring the sealing performance of the box.
