[0019] This utility model provides a liquid-cooled circulating heat dissipation structure for a marine battery compartment. Please refer to [link / reference]. Figure 1-3 The system includes a battery compartment 1, the inner cavity of which is used to house lithium batteries. Multiple partitions 9 are provided within the inner cavity of the battery compartment 1 to support the lithium batteries. Multiple horizontally placed cooling conduits 3 pass through the battery compartment 1. One end of each cooling conduit 3 is connected to a water supply pipe 5. The top end of the water supply pipe 5 is closed, and it has multiple outlets that connect to the cooling conduits 3. The other end of each cooling conduit 3 is connected to a drain pipe 4. The inlet end of the water supply pipe 5 is connected to the output end of a water pump 6. The input end of the water pump 6 is connected to an inlet pipe 7, the bottom of which extends into the water.

[0020] A limiting ring 91 is welded to the top of the partition 9, and the bottom of the lithium battery set on the partition 9 is inserted into the limiting ring 91. The front end of the battery compartment 1 is hinged to a door panel 2.

[0021] A metal heat-conducting plate 8 passes through the cooling conduit 3, and the metal heat-conducting plate 8 is sealed to the cooling conduit 3. Specifically, the cooling conduit 3 has a through hole for the metal heat-conducting plate 8 to pass through, and a support ring 31 is welded at the through hole. A sealing ring 311 is provided inside the support ring 31, and the sealing ring 311 elastically clamps the metal heat-conducting plate 8. The metal heat-conducting plate 8 is located in the inner cavity of the battery compartment 1. Therefore, the metal heat-conducting plate 8 absorbs the heat generated by the lithium battery in the battery compartment 1. Water flows in the cooling conduit 3 and carries away the heat on the metal heat-conducting plate 8, thereby achieving heat dissipation of the battery compartment.

[0022] In practical use, the cooling duct 3 runs through multiple battery compartments 1 inside the ship, the end of the water inlet pipe 7 is extended into the water area, and the bottom outlet of the drain pipe 4 is located outside the ship to drain water directly into the water area; the water pump 6 draws water into the water supply pipe 5, and then the water enters the cooling duct 3. Therefore, the metal heat-conducting plate 8 absorbs the heat generated by the lithium battery in the battery compartment 1. The water flows in the cooling duct 3 and carries away the heat on the metal heat-conducting plate 8, thereby dissipating heat from the battery compartment and carrying away the heat on the metal heat-conducting plate 8. The water is discharged into the water area through the drain pipe 4. Example

[0023] See attached document Figure 4 Unlike Embodiment 1, the metal heat-conducting plate 8 has an integral heat-conducting strip 81, which makes the heat-conducting strip 81 have a better heat conduction effect, thereby better dissipating heat from the battery compartment 1.

[0024] In practical use, the cooling duct 3 runs through multiple battery compartments 1 inside the ship, the end of the water inlet pipe 7 is extended into the water area, and the bottom outlet of the drain pipe 4 is located outside the ship to drain water directly into the water area; the water pump 6 draws water into the water supply pipe 5, and then the water enters the cooling duct 3. Therefore, the metal heat-conducting plate 8 absorbs the heat generated by the lithium battery in the battery compartment 1. The water flows in the cooling duct 3 and carries away the heat on the metal heat-conducting plate 8, thereby dissipating heat from the battery compartment and carrying away the heat on the metal heat-conducting plate 8. The water is discharged into the water area through the drain pipe 4.
