Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium-ion batteries, and in particular to a temperature control device for lithium-ion batteries. Background Technology
[0002] Lithium-ion batteries generate a significant amount of heat during operation, primarily from electrochemical processes and Joule heating caused by electron movement within the battery. If this heat cannot be dissipated promptly, the temperature will rise sharply, leading to performance degradation, shortened lifespan, and even thermal runaway and other safety issues. Therefore, effective heat dissipation and temperature control are essential for battery performance.
[0003] Currently, thermal management technologies for lithium-ion batteries mainly include air cooling, liquid cooling, and phase change material cooling. However, these technologies have certain limitations in practical applications. For example, while air cooling is simple and easy to implement, its heat dissipation efficiency is relatively low; while liquid cooling has high heat dissipation efficiency, its system structure is complex and there are safety risks such as coolant leakage. Therefore, it is necessary to develop a temperature control device that is both efficient and safe to meet the thermal management requirements of lithium-ion batteries. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a temperature control device for lithium-ion batteries, which performs excellently in terms of heat dissipation, temperature control accuracy, ease of maintenance, safety protection, and applicability, providing a strong guarantee for the safe and efficient operation of lithium-ion batteries.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a temperature control device for a lithium-ion battery, including a cover plate, a support plate on the cover plate, an airflow channel on the support plate, and an inlet and an outlet at both ends of the airflow channel.
[0006] A baffle is provided on the airflow channel, and a temperature sensing patch is provided on the baffle; an airflow hole is provided on one side of the airflow channel.
[0007] Preferably, the airflow channel is provided on one or both sides of the support plate, and at least one airflow channel is provided.
[0008] Preferably, an air inlet and an air outlet are respectively provided on both sides of the cover plate, with the air inlet located on the inlet side of the airflow channel and the air outlet located on the outlet side of the airflow channel.
[0009] Preferably, a first fan is provided in both the air inlet and the air outlet.
[0010] Preferably, the cover plate is provided with an opening at the center, a second fan is provided in the opening, and a semiconductor cooling chip is provided on one side of the cover plate located on one side of the support plate.
[0011] Preferably, a guide rail is provided on the inner side of the cover plate, and guide bars are provided on both sides of the support plate, with the guide bars located inside the guide rail.
[0012] Preferably, one end of the support plate is provided with a wiring port.
[0013] Preferably, a temperature display is provided at one end of the support plate, and a transparent window is provided on the top of the cover plate, with the temperature display located on one side of the transparent window.
[0014] Preferably, a filter screen is provided inside the air guide hole.
[0015] Therefore, the present invention employs the above-mentioned temperature control device for lithium-ion batteries, and the technical effects are as follows:
[0016] By incorporating airflow channels, a first fan, and a second fan, the airflow speed inside the lithium-ion battery is increased, effectively removing the heat dissipated by the battery. This design achieves a significant air-cooling effect when the battery pack is discharged at 1C or 2C.
[0017] When the battery temperature rises sharply, such as at a 3C discharge rate, although the effect of air cooling may be limited, the device can still reduce the battery temperature as much as possible by increasing air circulation and use a semiconductor cooling chip for secondary cooling, thereby effectively avoiding safety issues caused by battery overheating.
[0018] Temperature sensor patches monitor battery temperature in real time and transmit the data to a temperature display, allowing staff to intuitively understand the temperature changes inside the battery.
[0019] When the temperature exceeds the set threshold, the thermoelectric cooler automatically starts to perform a two-stage cooling operation to ensure that the battery always operates within a safe temperature range. Attached Figure Description
