[0030] The following is for reference. Figures 1-3 Description of a battery holder 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model.
[0031] According to an embodiment of the present invention, the battery holder 100 is used in an immersion liquid cooling tank 200. The battery holder 100 can be disposed within the immersion liquid cooling tank 200. The battery holder 100 can be used to fix a battery sample 300 and to test the heat generation of the battery sample 300, etc. Figure 1 As shown, the battery holder 100 according to an embodiment of the present utility model includes a fixing component 1.
[0032] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the fixing component 1 includes a support component 11 and a locking component 12. The support component 11 can be fixed inside the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, and the locking component 12 can be fixed on the support component 11. The battery sample 300 is suitable for being supported on the support component 11 and locked by the locking component 12. This securely fixes the battery sample 300 to the support component 11, thereby firmly fixing it within the limited space of the immersion liquid cooling tank 200. This prevents the sample from shifting due to the large flow rate of liquid in the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, ensuring that the battery sample 300 is not affected by displacement caused by flow impact, reducing the possibility of sensors or accessories falling off the battery sample 300, and ensuring the reliability of the test and the accuracy of the test results.
[0033] Furthermore, when multiple battery samples 300 are placed simultaneously in the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, the displacement of the battery samples 300 due to the large flow of liquid in the immersion liquid cooling tank 200 can affect the effective distance of other samples in the same test space, and may interfere with each other's test results during the heating process. In this application, the battery samples 300 are firmly fixed, which can avoid mutual interference between the test results of the battery samples 300.
[0034] It should be noted that under high-power charging and discharging conditions, battery sample 300 generates a large amount of heat, requiring an increase in coolant flow rate.
[0035] According to the embodiment of the present utility model, the battery holder 100 is equipped with a fixing component 1, which includes a support component 11 and a locking component 12. The support component 11 can be fixed in the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, and the battery sample 300 can be supported on the support component 11. The locking component 12 can lock the battery sample 300 on the support component 11, which can improve the reliability of fixing the battery sample 300, avoid the battery sample 300 from shaking or shifting in the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, reduce the possibility of sensors or accessories falling off the battery sample 300, and ensure the reliability of the test and the accuracy of the test results.
[0036] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1As shown, the support assembly 11 includes two fixed rods 111, which extend along a first direction and are spaced apart along a second direction. The battery sample 300 is supported at both ends along the second direction on the two fixed rods 111, with the first, second, and vertical directions perpendicular to each other. This allows for support of the battery sample 300 at both ends along the second direction, ensuring reliable support while reducing the size of the support assembly 11 and its contact area with the battery sample 300. This reduces obstruction to the battery sample 300, especially at the bottom, increasing the contact area between the battery sample 300 and the coolant, thus enhancing heat dissipation at the bottom of the battery and resulting in a larger heat-conducting area for effective heat dissipation.
[0037] like Figure 1 As shown, each of the two fixing rods 111 is equipped with a locking component 12 for locking the two ends of the battery sample 300 along the second direction. This simplifies the structure of the locking component 12, ensures the reliability of the battery sample 300, reduces obstruction to the battery sample 300, increases the contact area between the battery sample 300 and the coolant, resulting in a larger heat conduction area for the battery sample 300 and enabling effective heat dissipation.
[0038] Furthermore, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking assembly 12 includes two locking members 121 spaced apart in the first direction. The two locking members 121 on the same fixing rod 111 are used to limit the bottom of the battery sample 300 at two corners at both ends along the first direction. This allows for limiting the battery sample 300 in both the first and second directions, ensuring the reliability of the battery sample 300's fixation, preventing the battery sample 300 from shaking or shifting within the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, reducing the possibility of sensors or accessories falling off the battery sample 300, and ensuring the reliability and accuracy of the test results.
[0039] In addition, the bottom of the battery sample 300 has high structural strength and is difficult to deform. The two locking members 121 limit the battery sample 300 at the bottom, which can reduce the compressive deformation of the battery sample 300 by the locking members 121, thereby reducing the impact on the test temperature of the battery sample 300.
[0040] In some examples of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the locking member 121 includes a first plate 1211 and a second plate 1212 that are perpendicular to each other and connected. The first plate 1211 and the second plate 1212 are located above the support member. The first plate 1211 is perpendicular to the first direction, and the second plate 1212 is perpendicular to the second direction.
[0041] Meanwhile, the two first plates 1211 of the two locking members 121 on the same fixing rod 111 are located on both sides of the battery sample 300 along the first direction and are adapted to abut against the battery sample 300. The two first plates 1211 of the two locking members 121 on the same fixing rod 111 are used to fix the battery sample 300 in the first direction and prevent the battery sample 300 from shifting in the first direction. The two second plates 1212 of the two locking members 121 on the same fixing rod 111 are located on the same side of the battery sample 300 along the second direction, and the second plates 1212 of the locking members 121 on the two fixing rods 111 are located on both sides of the battery sample 300 along the second direction and are adapted to abut against the battery sample 300. The second plate 1212 of the locking member 121 on the two fixing rods 111 is used to fix the battery sample 300 in the second direction and prevent the battery sample 300 from shifting in the second direction. The two second plates 1212 of the two locking members 121 on the same fixing rod 111 can enhance the limiting effect on the battery sample 300.
[0042] In this application, the battery sample 300 is securely fixed by the aforementioned multiple locking components 121, which prevents the battery sample 300 from shaking or shifting in the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, reduces the possibility of sensors or accessories falling off the battery sample 300, and ensures the reliability of the test and the accuracy of the test results.
[0043] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the locking member 121 is movable along the length direction (first direction) of the fixing rod 111 and can be locked and fixed to the fixing rod 111. This allows adjustment of the position of the locking member 121 along the first direction on the fixing rod 111, making the position of the tested battery sample 300 more flexible and movable. Simultaneously, the distance between the two locking members 121 on the same fixing rod 111 can be adjusted, allowing the fixing assembly 1 to accommodate battery samples 300 of different sizes along the first direction. Furthermore, after the locking member 121 is positioned, it can be fixed to the fixing rod 111, achieving a secure fixation of battery samples 300 of different sizes along the first direction. The battery holder 100 of this application has wider adaptability to battery samples 300 and can accommodate battery samples 300 of more sizes.
[0044] Furthermore, such as Figure 2As shown, the fixing rod 111 has a first groove 1111 extending along the length direction of the fixing rod 111, and the locking member 121 has a third plate 1213. The third plate 1213 is connected to the first plate 1211 and is perpendicular to the vertical direction. The third plates 1213 of the two locking members 121 on the same fixing rod 111 are located on the side of the two first plates 1211 that are away from each other, thereby avoiding affecting the placement of the battery sample 300.
[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, the fixing assembly 1 also includes a first fastener 13, which passes through the first slide groove 1111 and is connected to the third plate 1213. The first fastener 13 may include a bolt and a nut. The bolt passes through the first slide groove 1111 and the third plate 1213 from bottom to top, and the nut is located above the third plate 1213 and connected to the bolt, thereby fixing the fixing rod 111 and the third plate 1213, and thus fixing the locking member 121 on the fixing rod 111.
[0046] When it is necessary to adjust the position of the locking member 121 on the fixing rod 111 along the first direction, the bolt and nut can be adjusted to a loose fit. The locking member 121 is moved, and the bolt moves in the first slide groove 1111. After the locking member 121 is adjusted to the position, the bolt and nut are tightened to achieve the fixing of the locking member 121.
[0047] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the battery holder 100 also includes two fixed slide rails 2 and positioning components 3. The two fixed slide rails 2 are adapted to be fixed in the immersion liquid cooling tank 200. The two fixed slide rails 2 extend along a second direction and are spaced apart in a first direction. The two ends of the fixing rod 111 along its length direction are respectively movably disposed on the two fixed slide rails 2 along the second direction. Each fixing rod 111 has a positioning component 3 at both ends along its length direction for fixing the fixing rod 111 to the fixed slide rail 2.
[0048] This allows for adjustment of the position of the fixing rod 111 along the second direction on the fixed slide rail 2, making the position of the tested battery sample 300 more flexible and movable. Simultaneously, the distance between the two fixing rods 111 fixing the same battery sample 300 can be adjusted, allowing the fixing assembly 1 to accommodate battery samples 300 of different sizes along the second direction. Furthermore, after position adjustment, the fixing rod 111 can be fixed to the fixed slide rail 2 by the positioning assembly 3, achieving secure fixation of battery samples 300 of different sizes along the second direction. The battery holder 100 of this application has wider adaptability to battery samples 300 and can accommodate battery samples 300 of more sizes.
[0049] In some examples of this utility model, such as Figure 1As shown, the fixing components 1 are multiple units spaced apart along the second direction. This allows multiple battery samples 300 to be fixed within the limited space of the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, improving testing efficiency. Furthermore, the locking member 121 is movable along the fixing rod 111 in the first direction, and the fixing rod 111 is movable along the fixing slide rail 2 in the second direction. This allows for the fixing of samples of different sizes and enables more flexible spatial arrangement of the multiple battery samples 300 within the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, preventing interference between the tests of multiple battery samples 300.
[0050] In some embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 As shown, the positioning assembly 3 includes a positioning element 31 and a second fastener 33. A fixing rod 111 is fixed to the positioning element 31. The positioning element 31 has a second groove 32 that extends through it in a second direction. The second groove 32 can be located on the lower surface of the positioning element 31, and a fixing rail 2 passes through the second groove 32. The cooperation between the second groove 32 and the fixing rail 2 improves the reliability of the fixing rod 111 moving along the second direction on the fixing rail 2. Furthermore, the second fastener 33, for example a screw, passes through the side wall of the second groove 32 and abuts against the fixing rail 2. Thus, the positioning assembly 3 can be fixed to the fixing rail 2, thereby fixing the fixing rod 111 to the fixing rail 2.
[0051] When it is necessary to adjust the position of the fixing rod 111 on the fixing slide rail 2 along the second direction, the second fastener 33 is disengaged from the fixing slide rail 2, and the positioning member 31 can move relative to the fixing slide rail 2 along the second direction to adjust the position of the fixing rod 111. After the fixing rod 111 is adjusted to the position, the second fastener 33 is tightened so that the second fastener 33 abuts against the fixing slide rail 2, thereby fixing the positioning member 31 and then fixing the fixing rod 111.
[0052] Optionally, there can be multiple second fasteners 33. At least one side of the fixed slide rail 2 along the first direction is provided with a second fastener 33, and multiple second fasteners 33 are provided on the same side of the fixed slide rail 2 along the first direction. These multiple second fasteners 33 are spaced apart in the second direction. This improves the reliability of the connection between the positioning member 31 and the fixed slide rail 2, thereby improving the reliability of fixing the fixing rod 111, and further improving the reliability of fixing the battery sample 300.
[0053] Furthermore, the positioning member 31 has a fixing groove 34, which can be disposed on the upper surface of the positioning member 31. The fixing groove 34 can penetrate the positioning member 31 in a first direction. One end of the fixing rod 111 in the length direction is located in the fixing groove 34. The positioning assembly 3 also includes a third fastener 35, which is used to connect the fixing rod 111 and the positioning member 31. Thus, the fixing rod 111 can be fixed to the positioning member 31.
[0054] Specifically, the third fastener 35 can be a screw, and the fixing rod 111 has a first groove 1111. The third fastener 35 can be inserted into the first groove 1111 and connected to the positioning member 31.
[0055] According to the embodiment of the present invention, the battery holder 100 can fix battery samples 300 of different sizes in the limited space of the immersion liquid cooling tank 200, and minimize the impact on the heat dissipation area. The present invention can be applied to related application scenarios.
[0056] The configuration and operation of the immersion liquid cooling tank 200 and the battery sample 300 according to the embodiments of the present invention are known to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail here.
