Description

A battery pack mounting frame device for new energy buses Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy vehicle technology, specifically to a battery pack fixing frame device for new energy buses. Background Technology

[0002] The battery pack in a new energy vehicle is the core energy storage device that powers the electric vehicle. It is typically composed of multiple lithium-ion battery cells connected in series or parallel and encapsulated in a metal or composite material casing. The mainstream battery types include lithium iron phosphate (LFP) and ternary lithium (NCA / NCM). The former has low cost and long lifespan, while the latter has high energy density.

[0003] For example, CN218257713U discloses a shock absorption and damage prevention device for a new energy bus battery pack, comprising: a bracket assembly and a damage prevention assembly; wherein, the bracket assembly includes upper and lower brackets fixed to the carrier, side rails installed on both sides of the lower bracket, a rail plate fixed to the inner side of the side rails and located on the side of the lower bracket, and a rail seat movably mounted in the rail plate. This utility model, through the damage prevention assembly, uses springs, rubber, and airbags to reduce shock and damage to the battery pack. During normal driving, the springs and rubber sleeves provide constant shock absorption, while some hydraulic oil is stored in the airbag for auxiliary shock absorption, resulting in good shock absorption performance that meets the needs of most scenarios. When road conditions are bumpy and exceed the preset value of the vibration sensor, the hydraulic pump injects hydraulic oil into the airbag through a connecting pipe, causing the airbag to expand appropriately, thereby raising the bearing appropriately and further improving the shock absorption effect.

[0004] The existing battery packs for new energy vehicles and the battery pack mounting frames for buses are only fixed together by bolts. However, after long-term use, the bolts are prone to loosening, which can cause the battery pack to loosen inside the mounting frame and eventually fall off. Therefore, there is an urgent need in the market to develop a battery pack mounting frame device for new energy buses to help solve the existing problems. Summary of the Invention

[0009] Preferably, a honeycomb aluminum protective base plate is fixedly connected to the lower end of the battery pack. The honeycomb aluminum protective base plate is inserted into the rectangular opening and fixedly connected to the connecting plate by multiple bolts. A sealing ring is provided at the edge between the upper surface of the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate and the lower surface of the connecting plate.

[0010] Preferably, both rectangular limiting seats are provided with rectangular limiting grooves inside. The rectangular limiting blocks on both sides of the battery pack slide into the rectangular limiting grooves of the two rectangular limiting seats respectively. The locking holes on the rectangular limiting blocks are connected to the guide and the circular through hole in the middle of the rectangular limiting seat.

[0022] 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.

[0023] Please refer to Figures 1-4. One embodiment of this utility model provides a battery pack fixing frame device for a new energy bus, including a bus floor plate 1. A rectangular opening 101 is provided in the middle of the bus floor plate 1. A battery pack fixing frame 2 is provided at the upper end of the rectangular opening 101. A connecting plate 201 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the battery pack fixing frame 2. The connecting plate 201 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the bus floor plate 1 and the bus chassis. A battery pack 3 is provided inside the battery pack fixing frame 2. A honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the battery pack 3. The honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 is inserted into the rectangular opening 101 and connected to the connecting plate 201 by multiple screws. The battery pack 3 is fixedly connected by bolts 303. A sealing ring 302 is provided at the edge between the upper end face of the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 and the lower end face of the connecting plate 201. During installation, the battery pack 3 is inserted into the battery pack fixing frame 2 through the rectangular opening 101. After the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 is inserted into the rectangular opening 101, it is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 201 by multiple bolts 303, thereby achieving a fixed connection between the battery pack 3 and the battery pack fixing frame 2. At the same time, the sealing ring 302 seals the upper end face of the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 and the lower end face of the connecting plate 201 to prevent moisture from entering the battery pack fixing frame 2 through the rectangular opening 101.

[0024] Please refer to Figures 2 and 4. Rectangular limiting seats 204 are fixedly connected to the center of both sides of the battery pack fixing frame 2. Guide members 4 are fixedly connected to the center of the rear ends of both rectangular limiting seats 204. A circular through hole 401 is provided in the center of both guide members 4 and the rectangular limiting seats 204. A pin 402 is provided inside the circular through hole 401 of the guide member 4. An electronically controlled telescopic rod 5 is provided at the rear ends of both guide members 4. Rectangular limiting blocks 304 are fixedly connected to the center of both sides of the battery pack 3. Locking holes 305 are provided in the center of both rectangular limiting blocks 304. Both rectangular limiting seats 204 have rectangular limiting grooves 205 inside. The rectangular limiting blocks 304 on both sides of the battery pack 3 slide into the rectangular limiting grooves 205 of the two rectangular limiting seats 204 respectively. The locking holes 305 on the rectangular limiting blocks 304 are connected to the guide 4 and the circular through hole 401 in the middle of the rectangular limiting seat 204. The rear end of the pin 402 extends out of the rear end of the guide 4 and is fixedly connected to the front end of the telescopic end of the electric telescopic rod 5. The electric telescopic rod 5 is fixedly connected to the side end face of the battery pack fixing frame 2. The front end of the pin 402 is along the circular... The through hole 401 extends into the rectangular limiting seat 204 and passes through the locking hole 305 on the rectangular limiting block 304. When the battery pack 3 is inserted upward into the battery pack fixing frame 2 along the rectangular opening 101, it simultaneously drives the two rectangular limiting blocks 304 to slide into the rectangular limiting grooves 205 of the two rectangular limiting seats 204 respectively. When the battery pack 3 is fully installed, the locking hole 305 on the rectangular limiting block 304 will align with the guide 4 and the circular through hole 401 in the middle of the rectangular limiting seat 204. At this time, the electric telescopic rod 5 is controlled. The action pushes the pin 402 forward along the circular through hole 401, so that the front end of the pin 402 passes through the guide 4 and the rectangular limit seat 204 in sequence and finally inserts into the locking hole 305 of the rectangular limit block 304, thereby realizing the mechanical locking of the battery pack 3. Through the limiting structure of the pin 402 and the locking hole 305, the battery pack 3 and the battery pack fixing frame 2 are locked. Even if the bolts 303 used to fix the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 and the connecting plate 201 are loose, the battery pack 3 will not come out of the battery pack fixing frame 2.

[0025] Please refer to Figure 1. Multiple second heat dissipation openings 203 are arrayed on both sides and the front and rear ends of the battery pack fixing frame 2. Multiple first heat dissipation openings 202 are arrayed on the upper end of the battery pack fixing frame 2. The first heat dissipation openings 202 on the upper end of the battery pack fixing frame 2 and the second heat dissipation openings 203 around the perimeter, together with the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301, can both ensure the heat dissipation requirements of the battery pack and provide good protective performance.

[0026] Working principle: During use, the battery pack 3 is pushed upwards into the battery pack fixing frame 2 along the rectangular opening 101 of the bus floor 1, so that the rectangular limiting blocks 304 on both sides of the battery pack 3 slide into the rectangular limiting grooves 205 of the rectangular limiting seat 204 simultaneously, and the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 is inserted into the rectangular opening 101. After the battery pack 3 is fully in place, the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301 is fixed to the connecting plate 201 by bolts 303, at which time the sealing ring 302 achieves sealing and waterproofing. When installed in place, the locking hole 305 of the rectangular limiting block 304 will automatically align with the guide 4 and the circular through hole 401 of the rectangular limiting seat 204. At this time, the electric telescopic rod 5 pushes the pin 402 forward, so that the pin 402 passes through the guide 4 and the rectangular limiting seat 204 in sequence and inserts into the locking hole 305 of the rectangular limiting block 304, forming a mechanical interlock. This dual-fixation structure achieves primary fixation via bolts 303, while mechanical locking via pins 402 prevents the risk of loosening and detachment. The heat generated during battery pack operation is efficiently dissipated through the first heat dissipation opening 202, the second heat dissipation opening 203, and the porous structure of the honeycomb aluminum protective base plate 301, while maintaining protective performance.

Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description. Thus, it is intended that all variations falling within the meaning and scope of equivalents of the claims be included within this invention.
