Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to energy storage device technical field, specifically provide a multistage sealed energy storage device. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the rapid development of the energy storage market, customers' requirements for the sealing of energy storage boxes are also increasing, and the sealing level has been improved from IPX4 to IP55 or even higher. As the energy density of the energy storage system continues to increase, the deformation of the energy storage box increases, making the sealing of the energy storage box more and more challenging. Moreover, during transportation and installation, full-load hoisting is unavoidable, making it increasingly difficult for the energy storage box to achieve IP55 or even higher sealing levels.
[0003] Referring to Figure 1 , the existing energy storage device has a mounting port on the box 100, which is provided with a door frame unit. A sealing strip is arranged on the door frame unit. When the door plate assembly 200 is closed, the door plate assembly 200 abuts against the sealing strip 300 on the door frame unit, thereby achieving a sealing effect. At the same time, a rainproof edge 400 is also arranged on the top edge of the mounting port of the box 100 to guide the rainwater. The above-mentioned scheme achieves the sealing of the box 100 and protects the sealing position, thereby prolonging the service life of the sealing strip. However, the rainproof edge 400 at the top of the mounting port can only block the rainwater entering the sealing area from the vertical direction at the top. During the IP55 test, the sprayed water or dust cannot be blocked by the rainproof edge from entering the inside of the box 1. Moreover, due to the large size of the door frame unit and the door plate assembly 200, there is a certain manufacturing error, which makes it difficult to ensure the flatness, resulting in poor sealing effect after the door plate assembly 200 is closed. In addition, during transportation and installation, full-load hoisting is unavoidable, which causes the door frame unit and the door plate assembly 200 to deform. Therefore, the sealing effect of the sealing strip 300 cannot meet the required sealing effect.
[0004] Correspondingly, there is a need for a new energy storage device to solve the above-mentioned problems. UTILITY MODEL CONTENTS

[0031] Furthermore, it should be noted that, in the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation" and "connection" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.
[0032] This utility model proposes a multi-stage sealed energy storage device, which includes a housing 1 and a door panel assembly 2. The housing 1 is provided with an installation port, and the door panel assembly 2 is hinged to the housing 1 so as to seal the installation port when closed. A first sealing element 3, a second sealing element 4, and a third sealing element 5 are provided. The first sealing element 3 and the second sealing element 4 are arranged sequentially from the outside to the inside of the door panel assembly 2 along the mating abutment surface between the door panel assembly 2 and the installation port. The third sealing element 5 is used to form a sealing cavity 6 with the side wall of the door panel assembly 2 and the housing 1, and the first sealing element 3 is located in the sealing cavity 6.
[0033] See Figure 2In this embodiment, an energy storage component is installed inside the housing 1. One side of the housing 1 has an installation opening, the size and shape of which can be flexibly designed as needed. A door panel assembly 2 is hinged to the housing 1, allowing it to open and close, and when closed, it engages with the installation opening to form a seal. When closed, the door panel assembly 2 has a pressing contact surface with the installation opening on the housing 1. The housing 1 can be designed with the inner contact surface of the installation opening according to the edge shape of the door panel assembly 2. Of course, this is only one possible implementation; multiple levels of sealing can be provided on the contact surface between the door panel assembly 2 and the installation opening of the housing 1. Specifically, along the direction from the outside to the inside of the door panel assembly 2, a first sealing element 3 and a second sealing element 4 are sequentially provided on the contact surface between the door panel assembly 2 and the installation opening, forming a two-layer sealing structure. A third sealing element 5 is also provided on the door panel assembly 2. The third sealing element 5 can form a sealing cavity 6 between the door panel assembly 2 and the housing 1, covering the contact surface where the first sealing element 3 is located, thus forming a sealed protection.
[0034] The three-stage seal formed by the above scheme can effectively improve the sealing performance between the housing 1 and the door panel assembly 2 of the energy storage device. At the contact surface between the door panel assembly 2 and the housing 1, the first seal 3 and the second seal 4, during IP55 or even higher sealing level tests, prevent water or dust from entering the housing 1. The two seals formed by the combination of the first seal 3, the second seal 4, and the third seal 5 can compensate for sealing gaps caused by manufacturing errors or deformation errors, thereby improving the overall sealing performance of the energy storage device and achieving an IP55 or even higher sealing level, which is beneficial to the safe operation of its internal components. For example, the first seal 3, the second seal 4, and the third seal 5 can be rubber sealing strips, and their specific shapes and structures can be flexibly designed according to the application location and sealing requirements.
[0035] Furthermore, based on the above embodiments, after the door panel assembly 2 is closed on the housing 1, the door panel assembly 2 can protrude from the side of the housing 1, and the third seal 5 is disposed on the edge of the door panel assembly 2. The third seal 5 can be configured as having an elastic sheet-like structure, and the third seal 5 has a tendency to press against the housing 1. When the door panel assembly 2 is closed, the third seal 5 presses against the side of the housing 1 with a certain clamping force to form an abutment, and the third seal 5, the housing 1, and the door panel assembly 2 form a sealing cavity 6, covering the abutment surface between the door panel assembly 2 and the mounting opening, preventing water or dust from entering the interior of the housing 1.
[0036] Furthermore, in other possible embodiments, a door frame unit 7 may be provided at the mounting opening of the housing 1. When the door panel assembly 2 is closed, the door panel assembly 2 abuts against the door frame unit 7, with the first sealing member 3 disposed on the door panel assembly 2 and the second sealing member 4 disposed on the door frame unit 7, forming two seals.
[0037] Based on the above embodiments, the door panel assembly 2 includes an outer door panel 9 and an inner door panel 8, wherein the edge of the outer door panel 9 is longer than the edge of the inner door panel 8, so that the outer door panel 9 abuts against the door frame unit 7. A first sealing member 3 is disposed on the inner side of the outer door panel 9 and abuts against the door frame unit 7, and a third sealing member 5 is disposed on the top of the outer door panel 9 to abut against the housing 1.
[0038] Furthermore, a mounting bracket 10 is provided on the edge of the outer door panel 9, and the third seal 5 is mounted on the mounting bracket 10. The mounting bracket 10 provides a firm mounting point for the third seal 5, thereby improving stability.
[0039] Furthermore, the outer door panel 9 and the door frame unit 7 abut against each other. Specifically, the outer door panel 9 includes an outer door upright panel 11 and an outer door folding panel 12. The outer door upright panel 11 is the outer side panel of the door panel assembly 2. The outer door folding panel 12 extends from the edge of the outer door upright panel 11 and bends towards the door frame unit 7. The door frame unit 7 includes a mounting upright plate 13, a connecting plate 14, and a door frame upright plate 15. The mounting upright plate 13 is connected and fixed to the inner side wall of the mounting opening on the housing 1. The connecting plate 14 is perpendicularly connected to the door frame upright plate 15. The door frame upright plate 15 is parallel to the mounting upright plate 13 and is close to the outer door upright panel 11. The first sealing member 3 is installed on the edge of the outer door folding panel 12, and the second sealing member 4 is installed on the edge of the door frame upright plate 15. When the door panel assembly 2 is closed, the outer door flap 12 is higher than the door frame upright 15. The first sealing element 3 at the end of the outer door flap 12 abuts against the outer side of the mounting upright 13 to form a seal, and the second sealing element 4 on the door frame upright 15 abuts against the inner side of the outer door upright 11 to form a seal. The two sealing lines are not on the same vertical plane, forming a bent sealing effect.
[0040] Furthermore, a filling layer 16 is provided between the inner door panel 8 and the outer door panel 9 to improve the insulation effect. The filling layer 16 can be made of rock wool, or other materials.
[0041] Further reading Figure 3 The door panel assembly 2 is hinged to the housing 1. For example, a hinge unit 17 can be used to connect the door panel assembly 2 to the housing 1 to achieve opening and closing. The first seal 3, the second seal 4, and the third seal 5 are all detachable. For example, the first seal 3, the second seal 4, and the third seal 5 can all be detached by plugging in.
