Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery technology, and in particular to battery boxes and battery devices. Background Technology

[0002] With the rapid development of new energy technologies, the power battery pack, as a core component of electric vehicles and energy storage systems, directly affects energy transmission efficiency, safety, and ease of maintenance through its structural design. Existing battery packs typically employ a modular design, requiring multiple types of connector assemblies to be independently installed on their endplates, including output connectors (positive and negative terminals) and signal connectors (signal output and signal input connectors). In this design, the output connectors need to be directly connected to the main positive and negative terminals inside the battery pack, responsible for transmitting high-power electrical energy; while the signal connectors need to interface with the data acquisition circuitry and control unit of the battery management system (BMS) to achieve battery status monitoring (such as voltage and temperature) and communication functions.

[0003] In the existing technology, the current output head and signal connector are independently set on the end plate of the battery box, which occupies most of the space of the end plate, resulting in tight end plate installation space, which is not conducive to the rational arrangement of end plate installation space, and also not conducive to improving installation efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, a battery box is urgently needed to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] One objective of this utility model is to provide a battery box that solves the problem that the current output head and signal connector are independently set on the end plate of the battery box, thus occupying most of the space on the end plate, resulting in tight installation space on the end plate and hindering the rational arrangement of the installation space.

[0006] To achieve this objective, the following technical solution is adopted:

[0007] A battery housing, wherein the battery housing is provided with an end plate, and the end plate is used to house a battery pack on one side along a first direction, and the end plate is provided with a through hole along the first direction;

[0008] The output structure includes:

[0009] The housing includes a main housing configured to be disposed on the other side of the end plate along the first direction, and the main housing covers the through hole;

[0010] An output connector is disposed on the main housing, the output connector passes through the through hole and is electrically connected to the output conductive bus of the battery pack;

[0011] A signal connector is disposed on the main housing. The signal connector is connected to the signal line of the battery management system passing through the via. The signal connector is used to output battery voltage or temperature signals.

[0012] Another objective of this utility model is to provide a battery device to solve the problem of low assembly efficiency of battery boxes.

[0013] To achieve this objective, the following technical solution is adopted:

[0014] The battery device includes a battery pack and a battery box as described in any of the above embodiments. The battery pack and the main housing are respectively disposed on both sides of the end plate, and the output conductive busbar of the battery pack is connected to the output connector.

[0015] The above technical solution has the following beneficial effects:

[0016] This utility model provides a battery box and a battery device. The battery box includes a battery body and an output structure. The battery body is provided with an end plate, one side of which is used to house the battery pack. The end plate has a through hole along the first direction. The output structure includes a housing, an output connector, and a signal connector. The housing includes a main housing, which is configured to be located on the other side of the end plate along the first direction and covers the through hole. The output connector is located on the main housing, passes through the through hole, and is electrically connected to the output conductive pin of the battery pack. The signal connector is located on the main housing and is connected to the signal line of the battery management system passing through the through hole. The signal connector is used to output battery voltage or temperature signals. This battery box integrates the output connector and the signal connector on the main housing and fixes the main housing to the end plate, thereby effectively saving installation space on the end plate and facilitating the rational allocation of installation space on the end plate. At the same time, since the housing is fixed to the end plate, there is no need for the output connector and signal connector to be installed separately on the end plate, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the battery device.

[0035] The embodiments of this utility model are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain this utility model, and should not be construed as limiting this utility model.

[0036] A battery box is a closed or semi-closed structure made of materials such as metal and plastic. It is the physical carrier of the battery pack 200. Its design and manufacturing must meet the safety, reliability and functionality requirements of the battery pack in different usage scenarios.

[0037] like Figures 1 to 9As shown, this embodiment provides a battery box, including a battery box body 100 and an output structure. The battery box body 100 is provided with an end plate 101, which is used to house a battery pack 200 on one side along the first direction X. The end plate 101 is provided with a through hole 102 along the first direction X. The output structure includes a housing 1, an output connector 2, and a signal connector 3. The housing 1 includes a main housing 11, which is configured to be located on the other side of the end plate 101 along the first direction X, and the main housing 11 covers the through hole 102. The output connector 2 is located on the main housing 11, passes through the through hole 102, and is electrically connected to the output conductive bus of the battery pack 200. The signal connector 3 is located on the main housing 11 and is connected to the signal line of the battery management system 300 passing through the through hole 102. The signal connector 3 is used to output battery voltage or temperature signals. The battery box integrates the output connector 2 and the signal connector 3 onto the main housing 11, and fixes the main housing 11 onto the end plate 101. This effectively saves the installation space on the end plate 101 and facilitates the rational allocation of the installation space on the end plate 101. At the same time, since the housing 1 is fixed onto the end plate 101, there is no need for the output connector 2 and the signal connector 3 to be installed separately on the end plate 101, thereby improving the assembly efficiency of the battery box.

[0038] Optionally, the main housing 11 includes a negative electrode socket 111 and a negative electrode connection hole 112 that are interconnected. The negative electrode socket 111 extends along the second direction Y, and the negative electrode connection hole 112 extends along the first direction X and communicates with the through hole 102. The first direction X and the second direction Y are perpendicular. The output connector 2 includes a negative electrode output connector 21, which includes a negative electrode connector 211 and a negative electrode connection assembly 212. The negative electrode connector 211 is inserted into the negative electrode socket 111, and the negative electrode connection assembly 212 is disposed in the negative electrode connection hole 112. The negative electrode connection assembly 212 connects the negative electrode connector 211 and the negative electrode conductive bus 201 of the output conductive bus. In this embodiment, the negative electrode socket 111 is arranged along the second direction Y, which can shorten the length of the battery box 100 along the first direction X. The negative electrode socket 111 and the negative electrode connection hole 112 are arranged at right angles, which is beneficial to shortening the overall size of the negative electrode output connector 21.

[0039] Optionally, the negative electrode connection assembly 212 includes a connector, a first bolt, and a second bolt. The connector is disposed in the negative electrode connection hole 112. The first bolt passes through the negative electrode connector 211 and is screwed to the connector. The second bolt passes through the negative electrode conductive busbar 201 and is screwed to the connector. In this embodiment, the connector is provided with threaded holes at both ends along the axial direction of the negative electrode connection hole 112 to achieve screwing with the first bolt and the second bolt, respectively. The negative electrode conductive busbar 201 is parallel to the end plate 101, thereby making the connector fit snugly against the negative electrode conductive busbar 201, increasing the contact area between the connector and the negative electrode conductive busbar 201, and reducing the resistance.

[0040] Optionally, the main housing 11 includes a positive electrode socket 113 and a positive electrode connection hole 114 that are interconnected. The positive electrode socket 113 extends along the second direction Y, and the positive electrode connection hole 114 extends along the first direction X and communicates with a through hole. The output connector 2 includes a positive electrode output connector 22, which includes a positive electrode connector 221 and a positive electrode connection assembly. The positive electrode connector 221 is inserted into the positive electrode socket 113, and the positive electrode connection assembly is disposed in the positive electrode connection hole 114. The positive electrode connection assembly connects the positive electrode connector 221 and the positive electrode conductive bus 202 of the output conductive bus. In this embodiment, the positive electrode socket 113 is arranged along the second direction Y, which can shorten the length of the battery box 100. The positive electrode socket 113 and the positive electrode connection hole 114 are arranged at right angles, which is beneficial to shorten the overall size of the positive electrode output connector 22.

[0041] Optionally, the angle between the axis of the positive terminal 113 and the axis of the negative terminal 111 is α°, where 90° ≤ α° ≤ 180°. In this embodiment, this arrangement ensures that the connecting wires connected to the positive terminal 221 and the negative terminal 211 maintain a safe distance, effectively preventing short circuits or tangling.

[0042] Optionally, the value of a° can be one of 90°, 100°, 110°, 120°, 130°, 140°, 150°, 160°, 170° and 180°.

[0043] Optionally, the distance between the adjacent ends of the negative output connector 21 and the positive output connector 22 is Lmm, where 10mm ≤ Lmm ≤ 500mm. In this embodiment, if the distance between the adjacent ends of the negative output connector 21 and the positive output connector 22 is too small, foreign objects (such as metal shavings, liquids, or tools) may accidentally come into contact with the two poles, leading to a direct short circuit. Simultaneously, insulation failure may occur, causing leakage current or partial discharge. Therefore, the distance between the positive socket 113 and the negative socket 111 needs to be Lmm to ensure a safe distance. If the distance between the adjacent ends of the negative output connector 21 and the positive output connector 22 is too large, it will result in a waste of installation space.

[0044] Optionally, Lmm can be one of 10mm, 50mm, 100mm, 200mm, 300mm, 400mm and 500mm.

[0045] Optionally, the positive connection assembly includes a fuse switch 223, which is connected in series between the positive conductor bus 202 and the positive terminal 221. In this embodiment, the fuse switch 223 is a key component in the circuit system used to protect electrical equipment and lines from damage caused by overloads, short circuits, and other faults. Its core function is to automatically cut off abnormal currents to prevent equipment damage, fire risks, or personal injury.

[0046] Optionally, the positive electrode connection hole 114 is a through hole; the positive electrode connection assembly also includes a first connecting plate 2221 and a second connecting plate 2222. The first connecting plate 2221 is fixedly connected to the main shell 11, one end of the first connecting plate 2221 is located inside the positive electrode connection hole 114, and the other end of the first connecting plate 2221 is fixedly connected to the positive electrode conductive bus 202. The second connecting plate 2222 is fixedly connected to the main shell 11, one end of the second connecting plate 2222 is located inside the positive electrode connection hole 114, and the other end of the second connecting plate 2222 is fixedly connected to the positive electrode connector 221; the safety switch 223 includes two plug-in connectors 2231. The safety switch 223 is inserted into the positive electrode connection hole 114, and the two plug-in connectors 2231 are respectively plugged into one end of the first connecting plate 2221 and one end of the second connecting plate 2222. In this embodiment, the safety switch 223 is inserted from the end of the positive connection hole 114 away from the end plate 101, thereby enabling the two connectors 2231 of the safety switch 223 to be inserted into one end of the first connecting plate 2221 and one end of the second connecting plate 2222, respectively. When the safety switch 223 needs to be replaced, it can be directly pulled out from the end of the positive connection hole 114 away from the end plate 101. The above configuration enables quick insertion and removal of the safety switch 223, improving the installation efficiency of the safety switch 223.

[0047] Optionally, the positive electrode conductive bus 202 is positioned parallel to the end plate 101 opposite to it; the other end of the first connecting plate 2221 is attached to the position where the positive electrode conductive bus 202 and the end plate 101 are opposite. In this embodiment, the other end of the first connecting plate 2221 is attached to the position where the positive electrode conductive bus 202 and the end plate 101 are opposite, thereby increasing the contact area between the first connecting plate 2221 and the positive electrode conductive bus 202, and reducing the resistance at the connection point between the first connecting plate 2221 and the positive electrode conductive bus 202.

[0048] Optionally, the main housing 11 is provided with an abutment block 15, which is located on the side of the first connecting plate 2221 away from the positive electrode conductive bus 202. The bolt passes through the positive electrode conductive bus 202 and the other end of the first connecting plate 2221 and is screwed to the abutment block 15.

[0049] Optionally, one end of the first connecting plate 2221 extends in the same direction as the first direction X, and one end of the second connecting plate 2222 extends in the same direction as the first direction X; the insertion interfaces of the two plug-in connectors 2231 are respectively opposite to one end of the first connecting plate 2221 and one end of the second connecting plate 2222. In this embodiment, when the safety switch 223 is inserted from the end of the positive connection hole 114 away from the end plate 101, the insertion interfaces of the two plug-in connectors 2231 are respectively inserted into one end of the first connecting plate 2221 and one end of the second connecting plate 2222.

[0050] Optionally, the first connecting plate 2221 is L-shaped.

[0051] Optionally, the safety switch 223 further includes a main body 2234. Two conductive plates 2235 protrude from the peripheral wall of the main body 2234. Two plug-in connectors 2231 correspond one-to-one with the two conductive plates 2235. Each plug-in connector 2231 includes an L-shaped plug 2232 and a connecting portion 2233. The connecting portion 2233 is fitted and fixed to the corresponding conductive plate 2235, so that the insertion interfaces of the two plugs 2232 are respectively opposite to one end of the first connecting plate 2221 and one end of the second connecting plate 2222. In this embodiment, the two conductive plates 2235 extend along the second direction Y, and the connecting portion 2233 is attached to the corresponding conductive plate 2235. Since the plug 2232 and the connecting portion 2233 are L-shaped, the insertion interfaces of the plug 2232 are arranged along the first direction X, so as to be opposite to one end of the corresponding first connecting plate 2221 and one end of the second connecting plate 2222.

[0052] Optionally, the plug connector 2231 is a one-piece molded part.

[0053] Optionally, the housing 1 further includes an end cap 12, which is inserted into the end of the positive electrode connection hole 114 away from the end plate 101 and closes one end of the positive electrode connection hole 114. In this embodiment, the end cap 12 can prevent external dust and water from entering the positive electrode connection hole 114, thus avoiding short circuits and corrosion.

[0054] Optionally, the end cap 12 is detachably connected to the main housing 11. In this embodiment, the end cap 12 and the main housing 11 are connected by bolts. Specifically, the main housing 11 has multiple threaded holes around the positive electrode connection hole 114, and the end cap 12 has multiple through holes around its circumference. Multiple bolts pass through the multiple through holes and extend into the multiple threaded holes.

[0055] In other embodiments, the end cap 12 may also be snapped onto the main housing 11.

[0056] Optionally, the housing 1 further includes a sealing ring 13, which seals the gap between the end cap 12 and the main housing 11. In this embodiment, an annular groove 115 is provided at the position opposite to the end cap 12 or at the position opposite to the end cap 12. The positive electrode connection hole 114 is located inside the annular groove 115, and the sealing ring 13 is disposed in the annular groove 115. The end cap 12 is fixed on the main housing 11 so that the end cap 12 and the main housing 11 clamp the sealing ring 13 to seal the gap between the end cap 12 and the main housing 11, further preventing external water and dust from entering the positive electrode connection hole 114.

[0057] Optionally, the sealing ring 13 is an elastic rubber component.

[0058] Optionally, the end cap 12 extends into the positive electrode connection hole 114, and the end cap 12 abuts against the conductive plate 2235.

The plug-in portion 122 is inserted into the positive electrode connection hole 114, and the cover body 121 is located outside the positive electrode connection hole 114 and clamps the sealing ring 13 with the main shell 11. The plug-in portion 122 abuts against the conductive plate 2235 to ensure that the plug interfaces of the two plug-in portions 122 are respectively plugged into one end of the first connecting plate 2221 and one end of the second connecting plate 2222.

[0059] Optionally, the main housing 11 also includes a support portion 116, which is disposed in the positive electrode connection hole 114 and located on the side of the conductive plate 2235 away from the plug portion 122.
