It includes a sweeping robot 1 and a battery housing 2 disposed inside the sweeping robot 1. A connecting plate 7 is fixed in the middle of the battery housing 2. Multiple heat-conducting plates 8 are symmetrically fixed at equal intervals on the outer side of the connecting plate 7. A lithium battery 9 is fixed inside each of the heat-conducting plates 8. A bottom cover 4 is fixed at the bottom of the battery housing 2. A heat sink 3 is fixed inside the bottom cover 4. The connecting plate 7, the heat-conducting plates 8 and the heat sink 3 are all hollow structures and together form a storage cavity. The storage cavity is filled with a thermally conductive medium, which is thermally conductive silicone.
[0027] The heat generated by the lithium battery 9 during operation is transferred to the thermally conductive silicone through the heat-conducting plate 8, then guided to the heat sink 3 through the thermally conductive silicone inside the connecting plate 7, and finally exchanged with the outside air through the heat sink. This multi-stage heat transfer dissipates the heat generated by the lithium battery 9 to the external environment, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the robot vacuum's lithium battery, thereby enhancing battery safety and lifespan.

[0029] The Battery Module Unit (BMU) 51 is the most basic unit in the battery management system, responsible for monitoring and managing individual battery modules. The BMU monitors parameters such as voltage, current, and temperature of individual battery cells, and transmits the collected battery data to the Battery Control Unit (BCU) via communication protocols such as CAN and RS485. Based on this data, the BCU can make further decisions and implement control measures.
[0030] The Battery Control Unit (BCU) 52 is the mid-level control unit of the battery management system. It comprehensively analyzes the data transmitted by the BMU and controls the operation of the entire battery cluster, playing a role in information processing, command issuance, and system coordination. The BCU exchanges data with upper-level control devices (such as the BAU) through communication protocols such as CAN and Modbus, executes commands, and provides feedback on status information.
[0031] The Battery Aggregator Unit (BAU) 53 is responsible for the management of the entire battery. It is responsible for aggregating battery pack data from all BCUs. It typically monitors the voltage, current, temperature, and charging status of the entire battery stack to perform a global status assessment and ensure the overall stability and safety of the battery system.
[0032] The heat-conducting plate 8 has a semi-circular structure on the side closest to the lithium battery 9, and is made of a highly thermally conductive material to increase the contact area and improve heat transfer efficiency. The outer surface of the heat sink 3 has grooves to enhance convection between the heat sink 3 and the air, thereby improving heat dissipation performance.
[0033] Working principle: The heat generated by the lithium battery 9 during operation is transferred to the thermally conductive silicone through the heat-conducting plate 8, then guided to the heat sink 3 through the thermally conductive silicone inside the connecting plate 7, and finally exchanged with the outside air through the heat sink. Through multi-stage heat transfer, the heat generated by the lithium battery 9 is dissipated to the external environment, improving the heat dissipation efficiency of the robot vacuum cleaner's lithium battery, which is beneficial to improving battery safety and lifespan.
