Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy storage system battery pack technology, and in particular to a vertical battery pack with a concealed connection terminal structure. Background Technology
[0002] Vertical battery packs are widely used in energy storage systems. However, they have the following problems:
[0003] 1. The connection terminals of the vertical battery pack are located at the back. During installation, it is necessary to go to the back of the vertical battery pack for installation. A relatively wide installation space needs to be reserved at the back of the vertical battery pack. After installation, the vertical battery pack occupies a lot of space due to the location of the connection terminals at the back. When maintenance is required later, the corresponding vertical battery pack needs to be moved out, which is inconvenient.
[0004] 2. In vertical battery packs, the connection terminals are exposed and lack effective protection. They are easily damaged by impacts, dust, and moisture, which can affect the normal use and lifespan of the entire vertical battery pack.
[0005] Therefore, existing vertical battery packs need to be effectively improved to reduce their space occupation and provide better protection for the connection terminals. Summary of the Invention
[0006] In view of the shortcomings of the prior art, the technical problem to be solved by this patent application is how to provide a vertical battery pack with a concealed connection terminal structure that can effectively protect the connection terminals, reduce the space occupied by the vertical battery pack, and facilitate inspection and maintenance.
[0007] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:
[0008] A vertical battery pack with a concealed connection terminal structure includes at least one vertical battery pack body; the vertical battery pack body includes a sheet metal shell, the upper part of the sheet metal shell is provided with a groove, the connection terminal of the vertical battery pack body is located in the groove, the two sides of the sheet metal shell are provided with wiring connection channels facing the groove, and the upper end of the sheet metal shell is provided with a protective cover facing the groove.
[0009] During installation, a vertical battery pack can be completely flush against two mutually perpendicular walls. When installing two or more adjacent vertical battery packs, the wider sides should abut against each other, and the narrower sides should face outwards. They are connected to each other through the connecting terminals in the grooves on the sheet metal casing. The wires pass through the wiring connection channels on the side of the sheet metal casing. The vertical battery pack, after connection, occupies little space. The top is equipped with a protective cover, which can form a high-strength protection and provide dustproof, fireproof, waterproof and accidental contact prevention functions.
[0010] As an optimization, the two sides of the sheet metal housing are recessed to form recessed portions on the sides, and the connecting channel is disposed on the recessed portions.
[0011] In this way, the recessed area can form a highly concealed connection channel. During the wire connection process, the wire passes through the recessed groove, avoiding the situation where the wire pushes out of the adjacent outer casing.
[0012] As an optimization, the protective cover is connected to the sheet metal housing by screws.
[0013] This ensures the stable installation of the top protective cover and guarantees its protective performance.
[0014] As an optimization, handles are provided on the recessed portions on both sides of the sheet metal housing.
[0015] This makes it easier to move the upright battery pack with the handle.
[0016] As an optimization, the bottom of the sheet metal housing is equipped with wheels.
[0017] This facilitates transportation and relocation adjustments.
[0018] As an optimization, the top of the sheet metal shell is symmetrically provided with connecting grooves, and splicing parts are provided in the connecting grooves.
[0019] This ensures that adjacent battery packs can be connected to each other after their positions are determined, preventing displacement and ensuring stable operation.
[0020] In summary, this vertical battery pack with a concealed connection terminal structure has the following beneficial effects:
[0021] 1. By setting the connection terminals in the top groove and the connection channel in the wide side groove, the installation area of the vertical battery pack is significantly reduced, making the installation of the vertical battery pack more flexible and convenient, adapting to various different installation environments, and effectively solving the problem of limited installation space.
[0022] 2. During installation, adjacent vertical battery packs can be placed side by side, and the vertical battery packs can be placed against the wall, close to two walls, without being restricted by the space behind. During maintenance, they can be directly maintained from above, making operation convenient.
[0023] 3. Equipped with a top protective cover to prevent the connection terminals from being damaged by impacts, moisture corrosion, etc., thus extending their service life and providing dustproof, fireproof, waterproof and accidental contact protection.
[0024] 4. Equipped with handles for easy handling of the upright battery pack;
[0025] 5. The recessed grooves on both sides of the outer casing facilitate the installation or removal of handles, make it easy to open the wire connection channel, and allow for passage when installing terminal wires, maintaining the overall high level of concealment. Attached Figure Description
