Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of energy storage cabinets, and specifically relates to an energy storage cabinet. Background Technology

[0002] Energy storage cabinets are a new type of energy storage device that stores electrical energy and releases it when needed, providing stable power support for various power systems. Currently, the liquid cooling unit and electrical compartment of energy storage cabinets are located in the same connected space. The currently used air-cooled liquid cooling units have air inlets and outlets. The condenser of the liquid cooling unit needs to cool the condensate, generating a large amount of heat. When the liquid cooling unit is operating under load, it draws in ambient air, which carries away heat as it passes through, causing the air temperature to rise. This hot air needs to be expelled into the environment promptly. However, in the design, the distance between the liquid cooling unit's outlet and the cabinet's outlet is too small, and a dust cover is added to meet IP rating requirements. This prevents the hot air generated by the liquid cooling unit from being expelled in time, causing it to bounce back into the electrical compartment, resulting in excessively high temperatures within the compartment.

[0003] Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a new technical solution to address the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0034] Example 1

[0035] An energy storage cabinet includes a housing 1 and a support frame 2 disposed inside the housing 1. The support frame 2 divides the housing 1 into a first cavity 3 and a second cavity 4. The support frame 2 supports the devices inside the first cavity 3. The first cavity 3 is a cooling chamber for housing cooling devices, and the second cavity 4 is an electrical chamber for housing energy storage devices. A cooling assembly 5, which can be a liquid-cooled unit, is disposed inside the first cavity 3. An energy storage assembly 10, which can be a high-voltage energy storage box, is disposed inside the second cavity 4. An air inlet 31 is disposed on one side of the first cavity 3, and an air inlet 58 and an air outlet 59 are disposed on the cooling assembly 5. The first cavity 3 has an air outlet 32 ​​on the other side, and the air outlet 59 of the cooling assembly 5 is connected to the air outlet 32. The air outlet 32 ​​is equipped with a first filter element 321, which can be a dust cover. The second cavity 4 has a baffle 7 on the side near the air outlet 59. The baffle 7 is used to prevent the air from the air outlet 59 from flowing back into the second cavity 4. The baffle 7 is fixed to one side of the second cavity 4 by welding. The baffle 7 and the air outlet 32 ​​are arranged adjacent to each other, so that the hot air from the air outlet 59 cannot be blown into the second cavity 4 through this side. The air inlet 58 is located at one end of the cooling assembly 5, and the air outlet 59 is located at the other end of the cooling assembly 5. By setting the baffle 7, the air discharged from the cooling assembly 5 can be prevented from flowing back into the second cavity 4, thereby avoiding the temperature inside the second cavity 4 from becoming too high.

[0036] In this embodiment, an air duct 6 is formed between the cooling component 5 and the top or side of the housing 1. The air duct 6 is connected to the air inlet 58. The outside of the cooling component 5 will emit heat and form hot air. The air inlet 58 can draw away the hot air in the air duct 6 to prevent the hot air from flowing into the second cavity 4 and causing the temperature of the second cavity 4 to rise.

[0037] In this embodiment, a first channel 8 is provided between the first cavity 3 and the second cavity 4, and the first channel 8 is connected to the air inlet 58 of the second cavity 4 and the cooling assembly 5, respectively. By providing the first channel 8, hot air can be discharged from the second cavity 4, which helps to reduce the temperature inside the second cavity 4.

[0038] In this embodiment, a second channel 9 is formed between the cooling component 5 and the housing 1, and the second channel 9 is connected to the air duct 6 and the air inlet 58 of the cooling component 5. This arrangement facilitates the air inlet 58 to draw away the hot air in the air duct 6.

[0039] In this embodiment, the cooling assembly 5 includes an air duct 51 and a fan 52. The fan 52 is installed inside the air duct 51, and the air inlet 58 and the air outlet 59 are arranged opposite each other on both sides of the air duct 51.

[0040] In this embodiment, a condenser 510 is installed inside the cooling assembly 5, and the condenser 510 is installed inside the air duct 51. The condenser 510 generates a large amount of heat when it is in operation. The air duct 51 and the fan 52 constitute the cooling system of the condenser 510, which removes the heat generated by the condenser 510 through air cooling.

[0041] In this embodiment, a mounting member 53 is provided at the air outlet 59 of the cooling component 5. A baffle plate 54 is provided at one end of the mounting member 53 near the air duct 6. The baffle plate 54 is used to prevent the air blown out of the air outlet 59 from entering the air duct 6. The mounting member 53 is located between one end of the cooling component 5 and the housing 1 to enhance the airtightness of the connection between the housing 1 and the cooling component 5 and prevent hot air from flowing back from the gap between the housing 1 and the cooling component 5. The mounting member 53 is composed of two iron plates, and the air blown out of the air outlet 59 can pass between the two iron plates.

[0042] Example 2

By providing the protrusion 531, the gap between the air outlet 32 ​​and the cooling component 5 can be increased, which is beneficial for the discharge of hot air.

[0044] In this embodiment, a seal 55 is provided between the side of the mounting component 53 and the cooling assembly 5. By providing the seal 55, the sealing effect between the mounting component 53 and the sealing assembly is improved, preventing the air blown out of the air outlet 59 from flowing back into the air duct 6.

[0045] In this embodiment, a support block 41 is provided inside the second cavity 4 to support the energy storage component 10. By providing the support block 41, the energy storage component 10 will not directly contact the housing 1, which is beneficial for the heat dissipation of the energy storage component 10.

[0046] In this embodiment, a first air filter 56 is provided at one end of the cooling assembly 5, and a second air filter 57 is provided at the other end of the cooling assembly 5.

[0048] In this embodiment, the air inlet 31 is provided with a second filter element 312, which is disposed between the cooling assembly 5 and the second vent 311. The second filter element 312 can be a dust cover.

[0049] In this embodiment, a first vent 42 is provided on one side of the second cavity 4, and a second vent 43 is provided on the other side of the second cavity 4. The first vent 42 is provided with a third filter element 421 and a third ventilation element 422, with the third filter element 421 disposed between the third ventilation element 422 and the baffle 7. The second vent 43 is provided with a fourth filter element 431 and a fourth ventilation element 432, with the fourth ventilation element 432 disposed outside the fourth filter element 431. By providing the first vent 42, the air permeability of the second cavity 4 can be enhanced, and hot air that flows back to the second cavity 4 but is blocked by the baffle 7 can be discharged. By providing the second vent 43, the air permeability of the second cavity 4 can be enhanced, which is beneficial for heat dissipation. The third filter element 421 and the fourth filter element 431 can be dust covers, and the third ventilation element 422 and the fourth ventilation element 432 can be louvers.

[0050] The other structures in this embodiment are the same as those in Embodiment 1, and will not be described again here.

[0051] Obviously, this utility model includes a housing and a support frame disposed inside the housing. The support frame divides the housing into a first cavity and a second cavity. The support frame supports the device inside the first cavity. The first cavity is a cooling chamber for housing the cooling device, and the second cavity is an electrical chamber for housing the energy storage device. A cooling assembly, which can be a liquid-cooled unit or an air-cooled unit, is disposed in the first cavity. An energy storage assembly, which can be a high-voltage energy storage box, is disposed in the second cavity. An air duct is formed between the cooling assembly and the top of the housing. By setting the air duct, any cooling components that are not promptly exhausted from the housing can be cooled. The hot air from the first cavity is discharged to prevent it from flowing back into the second cavity and causing its temperature to rise. An air inlet is located on one side of the first cavity, connected to the air inlet of the cooling component. An air outlet is located on the other side of the first cavity, connected to both the air outlet and the air duct. A first filter, which can be a dust cover, is installed at the air outlet. A baffle is located on one side of the second cavity to prevent air from the outlet from flowing back into the second cavity. The baffle is fixed to one side of the second cavity by welding, preventing hot air from the outlet from blowing into the second cavity from this side. This invention, by incorporating an air duct and a baffle, allows the air duct to discharge any air that is not discharged from the outlet in time, and the baffle to prevent air discharged from the cooling component from flowing back into the second cavity, thereby avoiding excessively high temperatures within the second cavity.
