Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy elevator technology, specifically to a battery protection structure applied to new energy elevators. Background Technology

[0002] With the acceleration of modern urbanization, new energy elevators, as a green and energy-saving vertical transportation tool, are gradually being widely used in various buildings. However, in the actual operation of new energy elevators, the working stability of the batteries faces many challenges, such as potential risks like vibration, overheating, short circuits, current overload, and physical damage, all of which may seriously affect the performance and lifespan of the batteries, and even cause safety accidents.

[0003] To address the aforementioned issues, the industry has improved battery protection structures, designing a protective structure that effectively protects batteries from damage while ensuring their normal operation. For example, the invention patent with patent application number 202411495400.4 provides a protective structure for energy storage batteries. This structure uses a support mechanism to support and install the protective host in the scenario where the energy storage battery is used. The sealing mechanism is installed on the top of the protective host in a plug-in manner to seal the top of the protective host, thereby achieving multiple protections for the battery.

[0004] However, in this structure, since the support mechanism needs to be directly fixed in the elevator machine room, the vibration generated by components such as the car, traction machine and guide wheel will directly act on the protective host. This vibration will then be transmitted to the battery and affect the battery's service life.

[0005] Furthermore, after the battery is encased in the protective host, the internal space is relatively sealed, and the battery does not contact the inner wall of the protective host. Therefore, in terms of heat dissipation, the heat generated by the battery cannot be dissipated quickly and is prone to accumulate inside, causing the battery to overheat and thus creating certain safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0006] In order to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology, this utility model provides a battery protection structure for use in new energy elevators.

[0007] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve its technical problem is:

[0008] A battery protection structure for a new energy elevator includes a shock-absorbing support, a limiting frame, and several protective brackets. The limiting frame is fixed to the upper surface of the shock-absorbing support, and the several protective brackets are arranged and fixed to the inner side of the limiting frame. The protective brackets are mounted on a single energy storage battery. The shock-absorbing support includes a fixed plate and a support plate. The support plate is located above the fixed plate, and multiple support columns connect the two. The support columns are elastic, and the support plate is supported against the fixed plate by the support columns. The fixed plate is fixed to the floor of the machine room.

[0009] The protective bracket includes a regular hexagonal frame formed by splicing six identical protective plates. The regular hexagonal frame is positioned outside a single energy storage battery. It also includes a silicone thermal conductive layer filled between the regular hexagonal frame and the energy storage battery. The inner side of the silicone thermal conductive layer is in close contact with the energy storage battery, and the outer side of the silicone thermal conductive layer is in close contact with the regular hexagonal frame. The heat generated by the energy storage battery is transferred to the regular hexagonal frame for heat dissipation through the silicone thermal conductive layer.

[0010] In this utility model, there are four support columns, which are located at the four corners of the fixing frame, and the four corners of the support plate abut against the four support columns.

[0011] In this invention, several protective brackets are tightly spliced ​​together to form a hexagonal honeycomb structure.

[0012] Furthermore, among the six protective plates, the long sides of two adjacent protective plates are connected to each other. The protective plates are made of metal material and have multiple triangular hollow structures.

[0013] Furthermore, the inner side of the protective plate is provided with two mounting grooves extending along the length direction. The two mounting grooves are respectively located on the side close to the long side. The inner side of the protective plate is also provided with a U-shaped heat-conducting copper tube. The two sides of the heat-conducting copper tube are tightly embedded in the mounting grooves, and the inner side of the heat-conducting copper tube is tightly attached to the silicone heat-conducting layer.

[0014] Furthermore, on the heat-conducting copper tube, a flat contact plane is formed on the side facing the silicone heat-conducting layer, and the contact plane is flush with the inner side of the protective plate.

[0015] This utility model has the following advantages and beneficial effects:

[0016] Multiple elastic support columns are installed between the fixed plate and the finished plate for connection. The support plate is supported by the support columns against the fixed plate. After the fixed plate is fixed to the floor of the machine room, the vibration generated by the operation of components such as the car, traction machine and guide wheel will be transmitted to the support columns by the fixed plate for shock absorption, thereby reducing or offsetting the vibration and improving the stability of the energy storage battery.

[0017] In addition, a protective bracket is used on the outside of each energy storage battery to protect it from physical damage. The protective bracket consists of a hexagonal frame made of metal that is placed on the outside of the energy storage battery and filled with a thermally conductive silicone layer. This transfers the heat generated in the energy storage battery to the hexagonal frame, thereby improving the protection while ensuring heat dissipation. Attached Figure Description

However, this utility model is not limited to the following embodiments.

[0024] It should be noted that if any directional indication (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, top, bottom, inside, outside, vertical, horizontal, longitudinal, counterclockwise, clockwise, circumferential, radial, axial, etc.) is involved in the embodiments of this utility model, the directional indication is only used to explain the relative positional relationship and movement of each component in a certain specific posture (as shown in the figure).

Therefore, features defined with "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of those features. Additionally, the technical solutions of the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but this must be based on the ability of those skilled in the art to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or impossible to implement, such a combination of technical solutions should be considered non-existent and not within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.

[0026] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, this embodiment discloses a battery protection structure applied to a new energy elevator. The new energy elevator uses photovoltaic panels to convert light energy into electrical energy for power supply. The photovoltaic panels are installed on the top of the machine room, which also contains an energy storage device and a control device. The electrical energy converted by the photovoltaic panels is stored in the energy storage device, and the control device outputs the electrical energy from the energy storage device to power the elevator. The energy storage device consists of several energy storage batteries, each of which is installed in the battery protection structure. The battery protection structure includes a shock-absorbing support 1, a limiting frame 2, and several protective brackets 3. The limiting frame 2 is fixed to the upper surface of the shock-absorbing support 1, and the several protective brackets 3 are arranged in a specific order. The protective bracket 3, which is fixed to the inner side of the limiting frame 2, is equipped with a single energy storage battery. The shock-absorbing support 1 includes a fixed plate 11 and a support plate 12. The support plate 12 is located above the fixed plate 11, and the two are connected by multiple support columns 13. The support columns 13 are made of plastic material and are elastic. The support plate 12 is supported by the support columns 13 against the fixed plate 11. The fixed plate 11 is fixed to the floor of the machine room. In the elevator machine room, the vibration generated by the operation of components such as the car, traction machine, and guide wheels will be transmitted by the fixed plate 11 to the support columns 13 for shock absorption, thereby reducing or offsetting such vibration and improving the stability of the energy storage battery. Specifically, there are at least four support columns 13, which are located at the four corners of the fixed frame, and the four corners of the support plate 12 abut against the four support columns 13.

[0027] In this embodiment, the protective bracket 3 includes a regular hexagonal frame 31 formed by splicing six identical protective plates 311. The regular hexagonal frame 31 is positioned on the outside of a single energy storage battery. It also includes a silicone thermal conductive layer 32 filled between the regular hexagonal frame 31 and the energy storage battery. The inner side of the silicone thermal conductive layer 32 is tightly attached to the energy storage battery, and the outer side is tightly attached to the regular hexagonal frame 31. The heat generated by the energy storage battery is transferred to the regular hexagonal frame 31 for heat dissipation through the silicone thermal conductive layer 32. Since the protective bracket 3 has a hexagonal structure, several protective brackets 3 can be tightly spliced ​​into a hexagonal honeycomb structure. The honeycomb structure can effectively protect the energy storage battery from damage by external objects and improve the protective effect.

[0028] Furthermore, in order to improve the structural stability of the protective bracket 3, it is spliced ​​together by the long sides of the six protective plates 311, and adjacent protective plates 311 are connected to each other by welding. In addition, in order to improve the heat dissipation effect, the six protective plates 311 are made of metal material, and multiple triangular hollow structures 312 are provided on the protective plates 311, thereby increasing the heat dissipation area.

[0029] Furthermore, when several protective supports 3 are tightly spliced ​​together to form a hexagonal honeycomb structure, the temperature at the center will be higher than the temperature at the periphery. Therefore, in order to improve the heat dissipation effect, two insert grooves 313 extending along the length direction are provided on the inner side of the protective plate 311. The two insert grooves 313 are located on the side closer to the long side. A U-shaped heat-conducting copper pipe 314 is also provided on the inner side of the protective plate 311. The two sides of the heat-conducting copper pipe 314 are tightly embedded in the insert grooves 313. The inner side of 4 is in close contact with the silicone thermal conductive layer 32. Specifically, since the outer surface of the thermal conductive copper tube 314 is circular, a portion of the thermal conductive copper tube 314 will be located outside the mounting groove 313 after it is embedded in the mounting groove 313. In order to ensure that the thermal conductive copper tube 314 and the silicone thermal conductive layer 32 are in close contact and to increase the contact area, a contact plane 315 is formed on the side of the thermal conductive copper tube 314 facing the silicone thermal conductive layer 32. The contact plane 315 is flush with the inner side of the protective plate 311.

[0030] In this embodiment, in order to improve the heat dissipation effect, the protective bracket 3 can use water cooling or air cooling to cool the energy storage battery. When water cooling is used, the six heat-conducting copper pipes 314 on the protective bracket 3 are connected in series, and cooling water is injected into the heat-conducting copper pipes 314 through a cooling water pump to remove internal heat. For a specific structure, please refer to a water-cooled radiator with a cooling plate disclosed in Chinese Utility Model Patent Application No. 202420432862.0.

[0031] Furthermore, when air cooling is used, after several protective brackets 3 are spliced ​​together in sequence, a fan is set on the bent side of the heat-conducting copper pipe 314 to blow air, thereby dissipating heat from the copper pipe and taking away the internal heat (the fan is a conventional structure and is therefore not shown in the attached figure).

[0032] The above description in this specification is merely an illustrative example of the present invention. Those skilled in the art to which this invention pertains may make various modifications or additions to the specific embodiments described or adopt similar methods to replace them, as long as they do not deviate from the content of this specification or exceed the scope defined in the claims, they shall all fall within the protection scope of this invention.
