[0029] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] Example 1

[0031] As attached Figure 1 and attached Figure 5 As shown, an energy storage container includes a container body 1. The container body 1 is divided into an electrical area and a battery area by a partition. The battery area is equipped with multiple battery cabinets, and the electrical area is equipped with a battery management cabinet and a fire cabinet, in order to construct a new type of power system.

[0032] To facilitate rapid cooling of the container and prevent overheating of the batteries inside, combined with the attached... Figure 2 and attached Figure 3 As shown, the battery area also includes a cooling system 2 located on the inner side. The cooling system 2 is a floor-standing air-cooled air conditioner. The housing 1 is located at one end of the battery area and has an air inlet 3. The air inlet 3 is also equipped with a fan 5. The fan 5 includes a support frame and a motor mounted on the support frame. The motor output end faces horizontally towards the inside of the housing 1, and multiple fan blades are evenly arranged along the circumference of the output end sidewall. After the motor is started, it can provide airflow into the housing 1. The cooling system 2 is located below the air inlet 3, and the cold air blows upwards and inwards towards the inside of the housing 1, which can diffuse the cooling range. The housing 1 is located at the other end of the battery area and has an air outlet 6 on the front and rear sidewalls. The air outlet 6 is equipped with an electric louver 7. The electric louver 7 is a lithium battery-powered, wire-free electric louver model. By controlling the electric louver 7, the size of the air outlet 6 can be adjusted to regulate the ventilation of the housing 1, improve the heat dissipation efficiency, and enable the inside of the housing 1 to cool down faster, avoiding battery overheating.

[0033] Furthermore, the air inlet 3 extends out of the housing 1 and is equipped with a removable filter 4 inside, which filters the air drawn into the housing 1 from the outside.

[0034] Furthermore, the filter 4 is inserted into the air inlet 3 from the upper end of the air inlet 3. The lower inner wall of the air inlet 3 is provided with a slot 9 that mates with the filter 4. The lower end of the filter 4 is inserted into the slot 9. The height of the filter 4 is greater than the height of the air inlet 3, and the upper end is connected to an extension plate 12 that is greater than the cross-sectional width and length of the filter 4. Holding the extension plate 12 allows the filter 4 to be inserted from the top of the air inlet 3, with the lower end inserted into the slot 9, making installation and disassembly convenient.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] Based on Embodiment 1, to prevent rainwater or snowmelt from entering the housing 1 through the air inlet 3, as shown in the attached... Figure 3 As shown, the inner wall below the air inlet 3 is inclined downwards towards the side away from the box 1. If rainwater is brought into the air inlet 3, the air inlet 3 extends out of the box 1, so that the rainwater entering the area remains on the outside of the box 1 and flows out to the outside through the slope, avoiding entering the outside of the box.

[0037] To further prevent rainwater or snowmelt from entering the housing 1 through the air inlet or outlet, combined with the attached... Figure 1 and attached Figure 4 As shown, both the air inlet 3 and the air outlet 6 are equipped with detachable rain covers 8 on their outer sides, which are waterproof and can prevent rainwater or snow water from entering the interior of the container.

[0038] The rain cover 8 has an arc-shaped curved surface structure on the side away from the housing 1, and the two horizontally opposite ends of the curved surface mechanism are provided with opposing vertical plates. The vertical plates are attached to the housing 1. An inverted L-shaped plate 10 is connected to the end of the vertical plate facing the housing 1. The side wall of the housing 1 is provided with an inverted L-shaped groove 11 that cooperates with the L-shaped plate 10. The L-shaped plate 10 is inserted into the L-shaped groove 11. That is, the rain cover 8 is fixed to the side wall of the housing 1 by the L-shaped plate 10 and the L-shaped groove 11, which makes it easy to install and disassemble, so as to facilitate the cleaning of the filter screen 4 and the electric louver 7 inside.
