[0019] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, 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 some embodiments of this application, not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application. It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of this application can be arbitrarily combined with each other.

[0020] The energy storage converter is the core of the energy storage cabinet, enabling its control. In existing technologies, energy storage converters from different manufacturers come in different sizes. When a particular manufacturer's converter is out of stock, replacing it with one from another manufacturer often results in a size mismatch, preventing installation in the cabinet. Alternatively, when the converter malfunctions and requires repair, it may be impossible to replace it with a converter from another manufacturer. Therefore, there is a need to design an energy storage cabinet that can accommodate converters from multiple different manufacturers.

[0021] Based on this, an exemplary embodiment of this application provides a liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet. The liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet includes a control compartment, in which a frame and a second partition are provided to divide the control compartment into a first accommodating compartment, a second accommodating compartment, and a third accommodating compartment. A first cover plate is detachably provided on the upper part of the first accommodating compartment; a second cover plate is detachably provided on the upper part of the third accommodating compartment, and a third cover plate is detachably provided on the side of the third accommodating compartment. Thus, when replacing energy storage converters of different sizes, the second and third cover plates of different sizes can be removed and replaced to adapt to energy storage converters of different sizes, enabling the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet to install energy storage converters of different sizes from different manufacturers; at the same time, it facilitates the replacement and maintenance of energy storage converters.

[0022] An exemplary embodiment of this application provides a liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet, such as... Figures 1 to 4As shown, the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet includes a cabinet body 100. A first partition 101 is provided on the cabinet body 100, dividing it into an upper control compartment and a lower energy storage compartment 201. A frame 301 is provided within the control compartment, and a second partition 302 is provided on the frame 301. The frame 301 and the second partition 302 divide the control compartment into a first receiving compartment 303, a second receiving compartment 304, and a third receiving compartment 305. A high-voltage box is located within the first receiving compartment 303. In the prior art, the first receiving compartment 303, the second receiving compartment 304, and the third receiving compartment 305 are arranged vertically from bottom to top. This arrangement results in a relatively high height for the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet when the energy storage compartment 201 remains unchanged. This makes it impossible for the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet to fit into a standard container, requiring the use of taller containers for long-distance transportation, thus increasing transportation costs. Preferably, in this application, the first storage compartment 303 is located on one side of the second storage compartment 304 and the third storage compartment 305, resulting in a lower overall height of the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet, allowing it to fit into a standard shipping container and saving on long-distance transportation costs. The upper part of the first storage compartment 303 is detachably equipped with a first cover plate 306, which can accommodate high-voltage boxes of different manufacturers and sizes, and facilitates maintenance of the high-voltage boxes during use. The liquid-cooled unit is installed in the second storage compartment 304; the energy storage converter is installed in the third storage compartment 305, the upper part of which is detachably equipped with a second cover plate 307, and the side of which is detachably equipped with a third cover plate 308. Thus, when replacing energy storage converters of different sizes, the second cover plate 307 and the third cover plate 308 of different sizes can be disassembled and replaced to accommodate energy storage converters of different sizes. This allows the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet to install energy storage converters of different sizes from different manufacturers, facilitating the replacement and maintenance of the energy storage converters. Simultaneously, the detachable third cover plate 308 allows for convenient wiring of the components inside the third accommodating compartment 305.

[0023] Preferred, such as Figure 2 As shown, a maintenance window 104 is provided on the side of the cabinet 100, located near the first storage compartment 303. The maintenance window 104 is detachably mounted on the side wall of the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet, facilitating the monitoring and control of the operating status of various components within the compartment. The first storage compartment 303 also houses backup power supplies and fire prevention devices, which are located on one side of the high-voltage box. The maintenance window 104 facilitates the fixing, wiring, and piping operations of the backup power supply and fire prevention devices.

[0024] For example, continue to refer to Figure 2The cabinet 100 includes a crossbeam assembly 102 and a vertical beam assembly 103; multiple sets of crossbeam assemblies 102 are arranged vertically; the vertical beam assemblies 103 are connected to the multiple sets of crossbeam assemblies 102 by fasteners. The multiple sets of crossbeam assemblies 102 and vertical beam assemblies 103 constitute the support frame of the cabinet 100. Preferably, the crossbeam assembly 102 includes a first crossbeam 1021 and a second crossbeam 1022; the first crossbeam 1021 has a mounting portion 1023 formed in the vertical direction; the mounting portion 1023 is connected to the vertical beam assembly 103 by fasteners. The first crossbeam 1021 and the second crossbeam 1022 are preferably connected by welding, and the second crossbeam 1022 is recessed towards the interior of the cabinet 100, so that a snap-fit ​​groove is formed between the first crossbeam 1021 and the second crossbeam 1022; multiple sets of snap-fit ​​blocks 1031 are provided on the vertical beam assembly 103; the snap-fit ​​blocks 1031 can snap into the snap-fit ​​groove. This makes the connection between the horizontal beam assembly 102 and the vertical beam assembly 103 more stable, improving the overall strength of the cabinet 100.

[0025] like Figure 4 As shown, the liquid-cooled energy storage integrated cabinet also includes a terminal block 105. Preferably, the terminal block 105 is located on the side of the cabinet 100. In this way, when the cable passes through the terminal block 105 from the bottom of the cabinet 100 upwards, the bending radius of the cable is larger, which facilitates the wiring during installation.

[0026] In this application, the terms "comprising," "including," or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, such that an article or device that comprises a list of elements includes not only those elements but also other elements not expressly listed, or elements inherent to such an article or device. Without further limitation, an element defined by the phrase "comprising..." does not exclude the presence of other identical elements in the article or device that includes said element.

[0027] Although preferred embodiments of this application have been described, those skilled in the art, upon learning the basic inventive concept, can make other changes and modifications to these embodiments. Therefore, the appended claims are intended to be interpreted as including the preferred embodiments as well as all changes and modifications falling within the scope of this application.

[0028] Obviously, those skilled in the art can make various modifications and variations to this application without departing from the spirit and scope of this application. Therefore, if these modifications and variations fall within the scope of the claims of this application and their equivalents, the intent of this application also includes these modifications and variations.
