Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of end plate technology, specifically a modular end plate. Background Technology

[0002] End plates are an important component in battery packs or electrochemical devices, usually located at the ends of battery modules. They perform multiple functions, including electrical connection, structural support, thermal management, and safety protection. They are an indispensable part of battery pack design, especially in modular battery systems where their role is even more prominent. The following is a detailed explanation of the concept, function, and application of end plates: Basic concept definition of end plates: End plates are end structural components of battery modules, usually located at the positive or negative terminals of the battery pack. They are both the physical support structure of the battery module and a key part of electrical connection and thermal management. Composition: End plates are usually composed of conductive and structural materials, and may also integrate functional components such as heat sinks, sensors, and fuses.

[0003] A search revealed Chinese patent application number 201220177134.7, which discloses an integrated end plate for flow batteries. This invention fixes the electron current collector, the flow guide frame, and the conductive plate together. The fixed connection between the electron current collector and the conductive plate ensures good contact, low contact resistance, and more stable conductivity. The fixed connection between the flow guide frame and the conductive plate reduces the sealing links between them, improving the leakage prevention capability of the end plate. This integrated end plate for flow batteries reduces the number of scattered components, resulting in higher reliability, easier production and daily maintenance, and lower cost.

The battery pack will generate a lot of heat when it is working. If this heat cannot be dissipated in time, the internal temperature of the battery pack will rise. High temperature will not only reduce the performance and life of the battery, but may also cause safety problems. Utility Model Content

[0020] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, the present invention provides a modular end plate, including an end plate body 1. Heat dissipation structures 2 are provided on both sides of the top of the end plate body 1. The heat dissipation structures 2 include through holes 21, which are located on both sides of the top of the end plate body 1. A fan 22 is provided inside the through holes 21. Positioning pins 23 are threadedly connected to the top of the fan 22. A rotating block 24 is fixedly connected to the top of the surface of the positioning pin 23. A vertical rod 25 is movably connected to the outer side of the inside of the rotating block 24. The bottom of the vertical rod 25 is fixedly connected to the top of the end plate body 1.

[0022] refer to Figure 2 A reinforcing rib 3 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the end plate body 1. The reinforcing rib 3 is used to enhance the compressive strength of the end plate body 1.

[0023] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting the reinforcing rib 3, the compressive strength of the end plate body 1 can be increased by the reinforcing rib 3 at the bottom of the end plate body 1, and deformation of the end plate body 1 can be prevented.

[0024] refer to Figure 2 The bottom sides of the reinforcing rib 3 are fixedly connected to the support block 4, and the bottom of the fan 22 is located on the top of the support block 4.

[0025] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting the support block 4, the fan 22 can be supported, thereby increasing the stability of the fan 22 during use.

[0026] refer to Figure 3 Mounting holes 5 are provided around the top of the terminal plate body 1. A gasket 6 is provided on the top of the mounting hole 5. A bolt 7 is threaded inside the mounting hole 5.

[0027] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the installation hole 5, the gasket 6, and the bolt 7 make it easier to install and fix the end plate body 1 to the battery module, and the gasket 6 reduces the wear of the bolt 7 and the installation hole 5.

[0028] refer to Figure 1 A dustproof mesh 8 is fixedly connected to the top of the fan 22, and heat dissipation fins 9 are fixedly connected to the front and back of the bottom of the end plate body 1.

[0029] As a technical optimization of this utility model, the dustproof mesh 8 can prevent impurities from entering the fan 22 and avoid affecting the normal use of the fan 22. The heat dissipation fins 9 can dissipate the heat generated by the end plate body 1.

[0030] refer to Figure 4 A torsion spring 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the vertical rod 25, and the bottom of the torsion spring 10 is fixedly connected to the top of the rotating block 24.

[0031] As a technical optimization of this utility model, by setting the torsion spring 10, the torque of the torsion spring 10 can drive the rotating block 24 to reset, preventing the rotating block 24 from failing to reset and affecting the installation or disassembly of the fan 22.

[0032] The working principle and usage process of this utility model are as follows: When installing the heat sink, firstly, accurately place the fan 22 inside the preset through hole 21. Then, by rotating the rotating block 24 on the vertical rod 25, gradually bring it closer to and fit against the top of the heat sink. At this time, by utilizing the precise cooperation between the positioning pin 23 and the reserved hole of the fan 22, the fan 22 is firmly installed on the heat sink. To ensure the stability of the heat sink, the support block 4 is cleverly placed at the bottom of the heat sink to provide necessary support. Next, through the tight cooperation of the gasket 6, the preset mounting hole 5, and the bolt 7, the entire heat sink system is firmly installed on the surface of the battery module that needs heat dissipation protection, ensuring that the heat sink structure 2 can fit tightly against the battery module, effectively improving heat dissipation efficiency. After installation, start the fan 22, which begins to operate efficiently, bringing continuous heat dissipation to the battery module, effectively preventing the battery from being damaged due to overheating, and ensuring the stable operation and long life of the battery module.

[0033] In summary, this modular end plate, through its heat dissipation structure, can effectively cool the battery module, preventing overheating over time. This addresses the problem of existing end plates, which lack heat dissipation capabilities, causing the battery pack to generate significant heat during operation. If this heat cannot be dissipated promptly, the internal temperature of the battery pack will rise, reducing battery performance and lifespan, and potentially leading to safety issues.
