Abstract
Description
[Technical Field]
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of building energy storage technology, specifically to a cement-based battery wall panel integrated device. [Background Technology]
[0002] While solar, wind, and tidal energy sources offer the advantage of being clean, their instability necessitates a large "sponge" for balance. Therefore, to balance clean production and efficient grid integration, new energy power systems need to be equipped with energy storage methods capable of peak shaving and valley filling. Currently, commonly used energy storage methods include chemical energy storage (lithium batteries, lead-acid batteries, etc.) and physical energy storage (flywheels, pumped hydro storage, etc.), but they each have their own drawbacks, such as the gradual depletion of lithium mines, safety and environmental pollution issues caused by electrolyte leaks, mechanical stress and fatigue, and geographical limitations. Cement is the most widely used man-made material to date, while water is the most abundant compound on Earth. Mixing the two through a hydration reaction yields cement stone, the most widely used inorganic non-metallic material in civil engineering. Building-based energy storage offers advantages such as low cost, environmental friendliness, lack of geographical limitations, noiselessness, and large energy storage capacity.
[0003] By installing solar panels on the building roof, solar energy can be converted into electrical energy, and excess electrical energy can be stored in cement-based batteries in the walls, realizing the integrated distributed generation, storage, and use of energy in the building. This meets the building's own power consumption needs for lighting, ventilation, etc., and significantly increases the scale of energy storage.
[0004] However, traditional electrochemical energy storage systems are difficult to adapt to building scenarios due to the flammability of liquid electrolytes (flash point <60℃) and defects in mechanical properties (compressive strength <5MPa). In contrast, cement-based structural batteries exhibit unique advantages with their innovative five-layer all-solid-state stacked architecture. This architecture, through a solid-solid coupling design of current collector-cement-based composite electrode-cement-based composite electrolyte-cement-based composite electrode-current collector, successfully integrates the dual functions of mechanical load-bearing capacity and electrochemical energy storage, adapting to the needs of integrated building wall structure and energy storage.
[0005] During charging, the cement-based battery converts electrical energy into chemical energy and stores it through an external power source. Specifically, the electrolyte inside the battery undergoes ion migration under the influence of an electric field, with positive and negative ions moving towards the cathode and anode, respectively, and being stored in the corresponding electrode materials. At this time, the cathode material typically undergoes an oxidation reaction, while the anode material undergoes a reduction reaction.
[0006] During discharge, the stored chemical energy is converted into electrical energy to power an external load. As the battery discharges, ions stored in the electrode materials migrate back into the electrolyte, while the cathode and anode electrode materials undergo redox reactions that are the reverse of the charging process. In this way, cement-based batteries achieve charge storage and release, providing a highly efficient and environmentally friendly energy storage solution. The main function of the current collector is to collect electrons from the electrode materials and efficiently conduct them to the external circuitry.
[0007] Cement-based composite electrolytes provide channels for ion transport, ensuring efficient ion migration between electrodes during charge and discharge. Their ionic conductivity and electrochemical stability are crucial to the battery's charge and discharge performance. The cement-based composite electrodes on both sides support electrochemical reactions, promoting the conversion between electrical and chemical energy. Their high conductivity and large specific surface area help improve the efficiency of electrochemical reactions, thereby enhancing the battery's energy storage performance. Finally, current collectors placed outside the electrodes on both sides collect current, ensuring that the current can be efficiently conducted from the electrodes to the external circuit, thereby improving the overall conductivity of the battery.
[0008] However, the solid-solid interface contact problem in existing cement-based batteries is a key factor restricting performance improvement. Because the cement-based composite electrode, cement-based composite electrolyte, and cement-based composite electrode in existing cement-based batteries are cast separately—one functional layer is cast and initially set before the next functional layer is cast—the surface roughness between the cement-based electrode and the cement-based electrolyte is high, resulting in poor contact and an effective contact area of less than 60%. These poorly contacted areas cannot effectively transfer ions, forming electrochemical dead zones that severely affect the battery's electrochemical performance. Furthermore, in cement-based batteries, the cathode, anode, and electrolyte materials are prefabricated using cement-based materials, and the electrode and electrolyte materials are in solid-solid interface contact. Mechanically, lateral forces can cause the materials to bend and separate; materially, the interfacial obstruction created by construction joints reduces the ion throughput between the electrolyte and the positive and negative electrodes, weakening the battery's power density.
[0009] Meanwhile, the difference in expansion rate between each layer during layered casting leads to excessive interfacial shear stress (e.g., when the expansion rate of the upper layer is 0.03% and that of the lower layer is 0.01%, the interfacial shear stress can reach 2.5MPa), inducing interlayer delamination and through cracks (width > 0.2mm), reducing the bending stiffness of the wall panel (attenuation rate ≥ 30%).
[0010] Therefore, there is a need to develop an integrated device for cement-based battery wall panels to solve the solid-solid interface contact problem in cement-based batteries. [Utility Model Content]

[0021] Furthermore, the lower end of the telescopic rod has a double-ended threaded bolt for lifting the partition. The lower end of the telescopic rod is fixed to the middle of the double-ended threaded bolt. A connecting hole corresponding to the double-ended threaded bolt is provided above the two smooth partitions.

[0042] In a preferred embodiment, the four steel plates 11 are connected by bolts 14 and angle irons 15.
[0043] In a preferred embodiment, the position of the wire pre-reserved hole 13 corresponds to the current collector installation area.
[0044] In a preferred embodiment, the depth of the pre-reserved groove 12 in the partition is 1 / 3 of the thickness of the corresponding steel plate 11, and a polytetrafluoroethylene wear-resistant layer is provided in the groove.
[0045] In a preferred embodiment, the telescopic rod 32 of the lifting and positioning mechanism 3 passes through the telescopic hole on the corresponding short rod 312, and the telescopic rod 32 and the telescopic hole are fitted with a clearance tolerance of ≤0.5mm; the upper end of each telescopic rod is fixed to a connecting rod, and multiple corresponding limiting holes 321 are provided on the telescopic rods 32 at both ends of the lifting and positioning mechanism 3, and the height of the telescopic rod 32 is limited by the limiting bolts inserted laterally into the limiting holes located above the short rods 312.
[0046] In a preferred embodiment, the lower end of the telescopic rod 32 has a partition lifting part that is a double-ended threaded bolt 35. The lower end of the telescopic rod 32 is fixed to the middle of the double-ended threaded bolt 35.

The two ends of the double-ended threaded bolt 35 pass through the corresponding connecting holes on the two smooth partitions 2 and are then fixed by nuts 36.
[0047] In a preferred embodiment, the clamp 34 is an elastic metal claw with anti-slip texture at the end.
[0048] In specific implementation, a preferred embodiment is as follows:
[0049] In another embodiment of this utility model, the specific manufacturing steps of the cement-based battery wall panel integration device are as follows:
[0050] Step 1: Make the modular steel mold 1. The mold consists of bolts 14, angle iron 15 and steel plate 11. The steel mold uses four steel plates 11, which facilitates mold disassembly and transportation. The steel plates 11 are fixed together with bolts 14 and angle iron 15.
[0051] Step 2: After the mold is assembled, a partition groove 12 is set in the steel mold. Two polypropylene smooth partitions 2 are installed in the corresponding partition grooves 12, and the interior of the assembled steel mold 1 is divided into a cathode area, an electrolyte area and an anode area.
[0052] Step 3: The current collector mesh 100 is divided into a cathode current collector and an anode current collector. The cathode current collector uses a nickel-plated stainless steel mesh to avoid passivation of the mesh in an oxidizing environment, while the anode current collector uses a stainless steel mesh. First, the wires of the current collector mesh 100 with soldered wires are passed through the corresponding wire pre-drilled holes 13. Then, the two current collector meshes 100 are placed into the cathode and anode areas of the steel mold, respectively. Next, the lifting and positioning mechanism 3 is positioned above the assembled steel mold 1 (the fixing frame 31 can be fixed using an auxiliary device). The two ends of the double-headed threaded bolts 35 at the lower end of the telescopic rod 32 are passed through the corresponding connecting holes on the two smooth partition plates 2, and then fixed with nuts 36. Finally, the clamps 34 on both sides of the lifting and positioning mechanism 3 are used to clamp the current collector mesh 100, thus fixing it in place.
[0053] Step 4: Simultaneously and in layers, the electrolyte and electrode materials are poured into the corresponding cathode, electrolyte, and anode areas of the assembled steel mold 1. The height of the cement-based wall panel is set to 60 cm. After the electrolyte and electrode materials are poured to a thickness of 10 cm, the smooth partition 2 is lifted by 10 cm using the telescopic rod 32 of the lifting positioning mechanism 3 (after the telescopic rod 32 is lifted uniformly, the limiting bolt is inserted horizontally into the corresponding height limiting hole 321 located above the short rod 312 to achieve height positioning), and the first vibration begins; after pouring another 10 cm thick layer, the smooth partition 2 is lifted by 10 cm, and the second vibration begins, and so on, until the smooth partition 2 is completely lifted out of the assembled steel mold 1 and poured and vibrated, the cement-based wall panel is completed.
[0054] Furthermore, before the final layer pouring, the clamp 34 can be separated from the collector mesh 100, and the lifting and positioning mechanism 3 can be removed, along with the smooth partition plate 2, before the final layer pouring is performed. After final curing, the mold can be removed, and the cement-based wall panel is now complete.
[0055] In summary, using the integrated device of this invention, the cement-based cathode, anode, and electrolyte layer of a cement-based battery wall panel can be cast simultaneously in a single operation. The lifting and positioning mechanism allows for temporary fixation of the current collector and enables the smooth partition to be lifted during casting. This invention enables the continuous, one-time casting of the entire cement-based battery wall panel, avoiding interlayer cold joints, air bubble accumulation, or material shrinkage differences caused by layered casting. It significantly improves the interfacial bonding strength between the cement matrix and the embedded electrode / conductive material at the interlayer interface, further increasing the effective contact area at the interlayer interface and ensuring the continuity of ion transport and electrochemical stability of the energy storage unit (electrode-electrolyte interface).
