[0027] The technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this application, and not all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the protection scope of this application.

[0028] Currently, energy storage and other fields require the use of cabinets to integrate various devices. To facilitate transportation, the entire cabinet is usually moved by hoisting. The hoisting structure of the cabinet generally increases the overall size of the cabinet, affecting the actual space occupied by the cabinet.

[0029] In addition, if the cabinet adopts a detachable hoisting structure, the operation of hoisting and installing the cabinet will be more complicated.

[0030] In view of the above, referring to Figures 1 to 3, embodiments of this application provide a cabinet to overcome at least one of the above-mentioned technical problems.

[0031] This application provides a cabinet. Please refer to Figures 1 to 3. Figure 1 is a schematic diagram of the overall structure of the cabinet provided in the embodiment of this application. Figure 2 is a schematic diagram of the structure of the hoisting unit 2 provided in the embodiment of this application. Figure 3 is an enlarged schematic diagram of part A in Figure 1.

[0032] It should be noted that the following embodiments of this application introduce a first direction X, a second direction Y, and a third direction Z that intersect each other. Specifically, the first direction X is approximately parallel to the length of the entire cabinet, the second direction Y is approximately parallel to the width of the entire cabinet, and the third direction Z is approximately parallel to the height of the entire cabinet.

[0033] Referring to Figures 1 and 2, the cabinet includes a cabinet body 1 and a lifting unit 2. The cabinet body 1 has a top surface 11, and a recessed groove 12 penetrating the top surface 11 is provided on one side of the cabinet body 1. The lifting unit 2 is embedded in the recessed groove 12 and includes a base 21 and multiple lifting parts 22 disposed on the base 21. The base 21 is fixedly connected to the cabinet body 1, and a drainage channel 211 is formed in the groove of the base 21 facing the recessed groove 12. The multiple lifting parts 22 are distributed in the drainage channel 211, and the cabinet body 1 has a drain outlet 15 communicating with the drainage channel 211.

[0034] The hoisting part 22 is provided with a hoisting hole 221 for external equipment to be hoisted. By integrating multiple hoisting parts 22 and the base 21 to form a hoisting unit 2, a recess 12 is pre-set in the cabinet 1 and the hoisting unit 2 is embedded in the recess 12, so that the base 21 is fixedly connected to the cabinet 1. This avoids installing a hoisting structure on the cabinet 1 when it is necessary to hoist the cabinet 1. At the same time, the recess 12 reduces the space occupied by the hoisting unit 2 on the cabinet 1. The drainage channel 211 and the drain outlet 15 formed by the base 21 help to remove the water accumulated in the recess 12 in time, which helps to improve the efficiency of hoisting the cabinet 1 and reduce the problem of water corrosion of the cabinet 1 and the hoisting unit 2.

[0035] In some embodiments, referring to Figure 1, multiple lifting units 2 are provided, and the projection of the center of gravity O of the cabinet onto the top surface 11 of the cabinet is located between at least two lifting units 2. It should be noted that the center of gravity O of an object can be determined using a method such as suspension. That is, by suspending the cabinet, when the cabinet is stationary, the center of gravity O will be on the vertical line of the suspension line. By suspending the cabinet at different points and recording the position of the suspension line, the position of the center of gravity O of the cabinet can be determined. The principle of determining the center of gravity O is existing technology and will not be elaborated here. When lifting the entire cabinet using multiple lifting units 2, since the center of gravity O of the cabinet is located between at least two lifting units 2, it is beneficial to improve the lifting stability of the entire cabinet.

[0036] In some embodiments, referring to FIG1, a plurality of lifting units 2 are distributed along a first direction X, and a plurality of lifting parts 22 of each lifting unit 2 are distributed at intervals along a second direction Y. In this embodiment, two lifting units 2 with a total of four lifting parts 22 are used as an example. As the number of lifting parts 22 increases, it is beneficial to improve the stability during the lifting of the entire cabinet.

[0037] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 and 3, the height of the lifting unit 2 is lower than the height of the top surface 11 of the cabinet. It is understood that the entire lifting unit 2 is completely housed within the recess 12, so that the lifting unit 2 does not occupy the space required by the cabinet in the third direction Z. It should be noted that the cabinet also includes a top panel 14 and side panels 13, which are attached to the outside of the cabinet body 1 to form an outer covering structure. The aforementioned top surface 11 is also the top surface of the top panel 14, and the recess 12 penetrates through the top panel 14.

[0038] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 2 and 3, the base 21 includes a first side portion 212, a second side portion 213, and a bottom portion 214. The bottom portion 214 is connected between the first side portion 212 and the second side portion 213, and the first side portion 212, the second side portion 213, and the bottom portion 214 form a drainage channel 211. The first side portion 212, the second side portion 213, and the bottom portion 214 can be integrally formed. The lifting portion 22 is connected to the bottom portion 214, and a gap 222 is provided between the lifting portion 22 and the first side portion 212 and / or the second side portion 213. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the lifting portion 22 is inclinedly disposed between the first side portion 212 and the second side portion 213. In this case, gaps 222 are formed between the lifting portion 22 and the first side portion 212 and the second side portion 213, respectively, thereby preventing the lifting portion 22 from blocking the drainage channel 211. As shown in Figure 1, the tilt direction of the four hoisting parts 22 can be appropriately adjusted to be diagonally opposite each other, which is beneficial to further improve the stability of the hoisting cabinet.

[0039] In some embodiments, referring to FIG2, the hoisting unit 2 further includes a plurality of first reinforcing members 23. The first reinforcing members 23 are fixedly connected to the side of the bottom 214 opposite to the hoisting part 22, and the first reinforcing members 23 are fixedly connected to the cabinet 1. In this embodiment, each bottom 214 is provided with two first reinforcing members 23 corresponding to two hoisting parts 22. The first reinforcing members 23 and the corresponding hoisting parts 22 are arranged opposite to each other, thereby improving the stress resistance and deformation resistance of the bottom 214 at the location where the hoisting parts 22 are set and improving the overall structural strength of the bottom 214.

[0040] In some embodiments, referring to FIG2, the hoisting unit 2 further includes a plurality of second reinforcing members 24. The second reinforcing members 24 are disposed in the drainage channel 211 and spaced between adjacent hoisting parts 22. The second reinforcing members 24 are fixedly connected to the first side part 212, the second side part 213 and the bottom part 214. The second reinforcing members 24 are provided with through holes 241 communicating with the drainage channel 211. Referring to FIG3, the hoisting unit 2 also includes a guide pipe 25. The guide pipe 25 is connected between two second reinforcing members 24 and communicates with two through holes 241 to guide liquid flow. In this embodiment, two second reinforcing members 24 are provided between two hoisting parts 22 in the same hoisting unit 2, and the two second reinforcing members 24 are spaced apart. It should be noted that, referring to FIG1 and FIG3, after the hoisting unit 2 is connected to the cabinet 1, the top panel 14 covers the second reinforcing members 24. The cabinet also includes a drain pipe 16. A drain outlet 15 is provided on the side of the cabinet 1, as shown in FIG3. The drain outlet 15 can be hidden by the side panel 13. The drain pipe 16 is located below the top panel 14 and connects the drain channel 211 and the drain outlet 15, so as to facilitate the timely discharge of the liquid collected in the drain channel 211 from the cabinet 1.

[0041] In some embodiments, referring to Figures 1 and 2, a flange 215 is connected to one end of the first side portion 212 and / or the second side portion 213 away from the bottom 214. The flange 215 extends towards the side opposite to the lifting part 22 and is parallel to the top surface 11 of the cabinet, and the flange 215 is fixedly connected to the cabinet body 1. In this embodiment, the flange 215 is connected to both the first side portion 212 and the second side portion 213 as an example. The flange 215 can be integrally formed with the corresponding first side portion 212 and second side portion 213. The flange 215 facilitates the quick and stable connection of the entire lifting unit 2 to the cabinet body 1, thereby facilitating the fixing of the lifting unit 2 by welding or other methods and improving the stability of the installation of the lifting unit 2. It is understood that in other embodiments, the flange 215 may only be connected to the first side portion 212 or the second side portion 213, which will not be described in detail here.

[0042] In some embodiments, the bottom 214 is provided with a flow-guiding slope from the end away from the drain outlet 15 to the end near the drain outlet 15. It is understood that providing a flow-guiding slope to the bottom 214 in advance is beneficial for quickly guiding the liquid collected in the drainage channel 211 toward the drain outlet 15.

[0043] This application provides an energy storage system including the aforementioned cabinet. It is understood that this energy storage system possesses all the technical features and effects of the aforementioned cabinet, which will not be elaborated upon here.
