[0030] The fixing support 3 is formed by bending to form two or more mounting portions 31 arranged in a staggered step manner, and a copper bar 4 is locked and fixed on the mounting portion 31, and the copper bar 4 is connected with the input waterproof connector 11, the output waterproof connector 12 and the ground wire waterproof connector 13 respectively.

[0031] From the above description, the utility model has the beneficial effects that a compact busbar box is formed by the fixed support 3 formed by bending, a staggered step mounting structure is realized, the upper and lower staggered layer distribution design of the parallel copper bar 4 is realized, the overall size and structure are more compact, the overall layout installation of the energy storage equipment is facilitated, the structure design of the straight up and down facilitates the arrangement of the energy storage equipment, the wiring is more reasonable, and the requirement for the installation space on site is reduced.

[0032] The fixed support 3 adopts a staggered layer structure design, fully utilizes the longitudinal depth height, realizes the compactness of the layout of the product, greatly improves the utilization rate of the space in the box body 1, and thus reduces the overall size. The upper surface of the box body 1 is provided with an output waterproof gland (4 out), the lower surface of the box body 1 is provided with an input waterproof gland (7 in), and the input and output waterproof glands of the equipment ground wire bundle 14 are arranged on the two sides of the lower surface, the equipotential grounding of the overall equipment is realized, and the equipment is safer.

[0033] The box body 1 is provided with an allowable 200Ah large current input and output hole allowing the 7 in 4 out parallel scheme on the upper and lower surfaces, the connection part is closed and treated by the IP68 waterproof gland scheme when the connection wire bundle is connected, high protection is realized. When the maximum parallel scheme is not used, that is, a hole position is not used, a waterproof silica gel plug can be installed, and the same closed characteristic is also realized.

[0034] Since the maximum 200Ah parallel scheme is adopted, the wire diameter of the connection wire bundle is very large, causing the wire bundle bending radius to be huge (usually 3 times the wire diameter), which causes the energy storage overall system arrangement scheme and the size of the installation site space to cause the equipment to be unable to be installed. Therefore, the straight up and down staggered layer arrangement scheme can avoid the problem of the wire bundle bending radius affecting the overall size of the busbar box and the installation space, and is a preferred solution scheme of a compact arrangement scheme.
