Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy vehicle battery pack technology, specifically a battery pack temperature management structure. Background Technology

[0002] A battery pack is a system formed by connecting multiple individual cells in series and parallel. During operation, the charging and discharging process of the battery pack generates heat, which causes changes in the overall temperature of the battery pack and the ambient temperature, affecting the working performance of the battery pack. Therefore, a battery pack temperature management structure is needed.

[0003] The prior art patent document CN222637474U provides a new energy battery pack structure for easy battery replacement, including a housing. A first magnet and a second magnet are arranged on two opposite inner walls in the height direction of the housing. A third magnet and a fourth magnet are arranged at opposite ends of the battery pack. The third magnet is arranged opposite to the first magnet and the opposite surfaces have the same polarity. The fourth magnet is arranged opposite to the second magnet and the opposite surfaces have the same polarity. The displacement of the battery pack relative to the housing is limited in the height direction of the housing by a limiting component. When the battery pack structure provided in this application is subjected to bumps along the height direction of the housing, the repulsive force between the third magnet and the first magnet and the repulsive force between the fourth magnet and the second magnet can buffer the battery pack and prevent damage. Moreover, the magnets have a long service life due to their material properties and are difficult to fail. Therefore, the battery pack structure provided in this application can have a long service life.

[0004] Although the device has many beneficial effects, it still has the following problems: During use, the device dissipates heat through a heat dissipation component. When the external ambient temperature varies, the device has difficulty regulating the internal temperature of the battery pack, which can easily affect the battery's performance. Secondly, when disassembly is required, a large number of bolts need to be removed. After prolonged oxidation in the air, the bolts may rust or even deform, which can cause inconvenience to the disassembly process. Utility Model Content

[0031] The embodiments of this utility model will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0032] This utility model provides an overall structural diagram of an embodiment of a battery pack temperature management structure, including:

[0033] Please see Figures 1-5 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0034] A battery pack temperature management structure includes a housing 1. A groove 4 is formed inside the housing 1. A base plate 16 is bolted to the inner wall of the groove 4. A fixing groove 20 is formed on the inner wall of the base plate 16. A filter 22 is bolted to the inner wall of the fixing groove 20. A fan 19 is bolted to the inner wall of the fixing groove 20. A fixing plate 13 is positioned above the base plate 16. A heat-conducting pipe 14 is positioned on top of the fixing plate 13. A heat sink 15 is positioned on top of the heat-conducting pipe 14. A placement plate 12 is positioned above the heat sink 15. A temperature sensor 21 is bolted to the interior of the placement plate 12. A material plate 23 is bolted to the top of the placement plate 12. The preferred material is paraffin-expanded graphite composite phase change material. The temperature sensor 21 senses the temperature of the battery cell 11. The PLC has an editable chip with a preset threshold. When the data exceeds the threshold, that is, when the temperature is higher than the standard, the PLC will control the fan 19 connected by bolts inside the fixed slot 20 to operate, so that air can smoothly enter the housing 1. At the same time, the heat-conducting sheet is used to increase the heat dissipation area of ​​the heat pipe 14, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect. In addition, when the temperature is lower than the standard state, the material of the material plate 23 itself facilitates the release of the heat stored therein, which is used to regulate the temperature inside the battery pack and keep it in a better temperature state.

[0035] It is worth noting that, in order to better cool the internal environment of the groove 4, the top of the base plate 16 is provided with an installation groove 17, the inner wall of the installation groove 17 is connected to an installation column 18, and the top of the installation column 18 is connected to a fixing plate 13 by bolts. There are multiple fixing grooves 20, which are evenly distributed. Through the structural design of multiple evenly distributed fixing grooves 20, the device can better cool the internal environment of the groove 4.

[0036] Next, in order to supply power to new energy vehicles, specifically, a square groove 2 is formed on the surface of the groove 4, and a grid 3 is connected to the inner wall of the square groove 2 by bolts. A battery cell 11 is set on the top of the placement plate 12. There are multiple battery cells 11, which are distributed in an equidistant manner. The material of the placement plate 12 is preferably copper plate, which facilitates the temperature of the battery cells 11 to be detected by the temperature sensor 21. Through multiple battery cells 11 distributed in an equidistant manner, it can better supply power to new energy vehicles.

[0037] Meanwhile, in order to better inspect the internal parts of the housing 1, specifically, a slot 10 is provided on the inner wall of the groove 4, and a locking post 9 is bolted to the bottom of the inner wall of the slot 10. A locking plate 6 is sleeved on the outer circumference of the locking post 9, and a spring 8 is welded to the bottom of the locking plate 6. The slot 10 is slidably connected to the surface of the locking plate 6, and a nut 7 is threaded to the outer circumference of the locking post 9. A cover plate 5 is bolted to the surface of the locking plate 6. Through the mutual cooperation between the locking plate 6, the slot 10, the spring 8, the locking post 9, and the nut 7, it is easy to disassemble or install the cover plate 5, which is beneficial for better inspection of the internal parts of the housing 1.

[0038] Finally, in order to better install and remove the cover plate 5, there are multiple clamping plates 6, which are symmetrically distributed. The multiple symmetrically distributed clamping plates 6 facilitate the installation and removal of the cover plate 5 through a multi-angle fixing method.

[0039] In addition, the circuits, electronic components and modules involved in this utility model are all existing technologies, which can be fully implemented by those skilled in the art, and need not be elaborated upon. The content protected by this utility model does not involve any improvement to the internal structure and method.

[0040] Combination Figures 1-5 The specific usage process of the battery pack temperature management structure in this embodiment is as follows:

[0041] 1: When using this type of battery pack temperature management structure, after the staff moves the device to a suitable position and connects the power supply, it can be used to supply power inside the new energy vehicle;

[0042] 2: When the surface temperature of the battery cell 11 is high, the temperature of the battery cell 11 is sensed by the temperature sensor 21 inside the placement plate 12. The PLC has an editable chip with a preset threshold. When the data exceeds the threshold, that is, when the temperature is higher than the standard, the PLC will control the fan 19 connected by bolts inside the fixing slot 20 to run, so that air can smoothly enter the housing 1. At the same time, the heat sink 15 on the surface of the fixing plate 13 increases the heat dissipation area of ​​the heat pipe 14, thereby improving the heat dissipation effect to a certain extent. In addition, the material plate 23, which is a paraffin-expanded graphite composite phase change material, can better store some of the heat of the battery cell 11 and release the heat when the temperature of the battery cell 11 is low, thereby regulating the temperature inside the battery pack and maintaining its better stability.

[0043] 3: When the staff needs to install or remove the battery cell 11 inside the housing 1 individually, the staff can first unscrew the nut 7 from the outer circumference of the locking post 9 through the threaded connection, and take out the locking plate 6 and spring 8 from the inside of the locking groove 10. This makes it easy to take out the cover plate 5 from the inside of the groove 4, which makes it easy to remove or install the cover plate 5, and thus makes it easy to install and replace the battery cell 11 and other parts inside the housing.

[0044] Although the present invention has been described above with reference to embodiments, various modifications can be made and components can be replaced with equivalents without departing from the scope of the present invention. In particular, as long as there is no structural conflict, the features in the embodiments disclosed in this invention can be combined with each other in any way. The lack of an exhaustive description of these combinations in this specification is merely for the sake of brevity and resource conservation. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed herein, but includes all technical solutions falling within the scope of the claims.
