Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy storage container technology, specifically to container components and energy storage containers. Background Technology

[0002] In related technologies, the opening angle of the flat doors of energy storage containers is limited, which means that the doors cannot be fully opened when they are opened, thus limiting the range of rotation, reducing the operating space, and affecting maintenance and repair efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0003] The embodiments of this utility model provide a box assembly and an energy storage container, which can improve the technical problem of the limited opening angle of the flat door of the energy storage container.

[0004] In a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a housing assembly, comprising: The box has a doorway and a mounting base. The door body includes a connecting part, which is equipped with a rotating component. The rotating component is rotatably connected to the mounting base, allowing the door body to rotate relative to the housing to open or close the doorway. The mounting base has a clearance cavity, and when the door is opened, a portion of the connecting part is accommodated within the clearance cavity.

[0005] In one embodiment, the mounting base includes a mounting part and a support part. The support part is mounted on the housing. The mounting part is rotatably configured with a rotating member. A clearance cavity is formed between the support part and the mounting part.

[0006] This design provides sufficient space for the rotating parts to move, preventing interference between the connection and the mounting base, and ensuring smooth operation of the rotating parts. At the same time, the clearance cavity also reduces the weight of the mounting base, lowers material costs, and facilitates heat dissipation and stress dispersion.

[0007] In one embodiment, the clearance cavity has an opening facing the connecting portion and located on the rotational trajectory of the connecting portion; and / or, The mounting base is located on the side of the cabinet facing the door, and the rotating part is located on the side of the door facing the cabinet.

[0008] This design allows the connecting part to smoothly enter or exit the clearance cavity during rotation, improving assembly efficiency and ease of operation. Furthermore, the opening's location on the rotation trajectory prevents interference between the connecting part and other parts of the clearance cavity during movement, ensuring smooth and precise motion.

[0009] This design, placing the mounting base on the side of the cabinet facing the door, ensures a stable connection between the door and the cabinet during opening and closing, preventing wobbling or detachment due to improper installation. Simultaneously, the rotating parts are positioned on the side of the door facing the cabinet, resulting in smoother door rotation, reduced friction and resistance, and improved door lifespan and operational comfort. Furthermore, this design conceals the mounting base and rotating parts, reducing visible mechanical components and creating a smoother door surface, maintaining a clean and aesthetically pleasing exterior. This concealed design also effectively prevents dust and debris from entering the rotating parts, reducing maintenance frequency and the risk of malfunction, further enhancing the product's practicality and durability.

[0010] In one embodiment, the thickness of the mounting portion is greater than the thickness of the support portion, and it is used to support the rotating component.

[0011] In one embodiment, the mounting base and the support portion form an integral structure.

[0012] This integrated design simplifies the assembly process, reduces the number of parts, and consequently lowers overall weight and production costs. Simultaneously, the one-piece molding enhances the overall strength and stability of the structure, preventing loosening or wear issues that may occur at the joints. Furthermore, the integrated structure provides better sealing performance, preventing dust or moisture from entering the joints and extending service life.

[0013] In one embodiment, the door body includes a door panel and a plurality of side panels surrounding the periphery of the door body. A rotating member is disposed at the connection between the door panel and the side panels. A clearance groove is provided on the side of the side panel away from the door body, and a portion of the mounting base is accommodated in the clearance groove.

[0014] This design ensures that the door will not interfere with the mounting base during rotation. The clearance groove provides sufficient space for the mounting base, preventing rotational obstruction or component wear caused by structural conflicts. Simultaneously, this layout optimizes the connection strength between the door and the side panels. The rotating component, located at the connection point between the door and side panels, evenly distributes stress during rotation, enhancing the overall structural stability and durability.

[0015] In one embodiment, the clearance groove has a groove bottom surface away from the door panel, and the height of the groove bottom surface relative to the door body is greater than the maximum height of the rotating component relative to the door body.

[0016] This design ensures sufficient contact area between the rotating component and the connecting part, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the connection structure. Simultaneously, the larger contact area disperses stress, reduces stress concentration, and extends the service life of both the rotating component and the connecting part.

[0017] In one embodiment, the door body includes two door panels arranged opposite each other, and a rotating member is provided on the side of the door panels away from each other.

[0018] This design, with two independent doors covering the entrance, effectively reduces the size of each door, allowing for greater exposure of the internal space and improving operator flexibility. It also reduces the space occupied by the doors in the side passage when open, minimizing interference with the operational flow of adjacent equipment. Furthermore, it effectively reduces the weight of each door, thereby reducing the load on the rotating structure and improving the ease of opening and closing the doors.

[0019] In one embodiment, the door body is provided with a plurality of locking structures at intervals along a first direction. The locking structures are used to lock when the two door panels are closed. The first direction is collinear with the rotation axis of the door body.

[0020] This design allows multiple locking structures to be evenly distributed and function simultaneously when the door is closed, improving the stability and reliability of the locking mechanism and thus enhancing the sealing performance of the door and housing when closed. The first direction is collinear with the door's rotation axis, ensuring even force distribution on the locking structures during door rotation and preventing locking failure or structural damage due to uneven force distribution. Furthermore, the spacing between the multiple locking structures ensures that if one locking structure fails, the others can still maintain the door's locked state, enhancing system redundancy and security.

[0021] Secondly, this embodiment also proposes an energy storage container, including all the specific embodiments of the above-mentioned container components.

[0022] In this embodiment, by providing a clearance cavity, the connecting part can smoothly enter the clearance cavity when the door is opened, avoiding interference between the connecting part and other parts of the housing. The clearance cavity provides sufficient room for the connecting part to move, allowing the door to rotate smoothly to achieve a larger opening and closing angle, increase the rotation range, improve the operating space, and enhance maintenance and repair efficiency.

[0028] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present utility model. In addition, it should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are only for illustration and explanation of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. In the present utility model, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "upper" and "lower" generally refer to the upper and lower positions of the device in actual use or operation, specifically the drawing directions in the accompanying drawings; while "inner" and "outer" refer to the outline of the device.

[0029] In related technologies, the opening angle of the flat panel door of the energy storage container is limited, which means that the door 2 cannot be fully opened when it is opened, thus limiting the rotation range, reducing the operating space, and affecting the efficiency of maintenance and repair.

[0030] To address the aforementioned technical problems, in a first aspect, embodiments of the present invention provide a housing assembly 100, comprising: The box 1 has a doorway 11 and a mounting base 12; Door body 2, door body 2 includes a connecting part 21, the connecting part 21 is provided with a rotating part 22, the rotating part 22 is rotatably connected to the mounting base 12, so that the door body 2 can rotate relative to the box body 1 to open or close the door 11; The mounting base 12 has a clearance cavity 121. When the door 2 opens the doorway 11, a portion of the connecting part 21 is accommodated in the clearance cavity 121.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, in this technical solution, by setting an obstacle avoidance cavity 121, the connecting part 21 can smoothly enter the obstacle avoidance cavity 121 when the door 2 is opened, avoiding interference between the connecting part 21 and other parts of the housing 1. The obstacle avoidance cavity 121 provides sufficient room for the connecting part 21 to move, allowing the door 2 to rotate smoothly to achieve a larger opening and closing angle, increase the rotation range, improve the operating space, and improve maintenance and repair efficiency.

[0032] It should be noted that the shape of the clearance cavity 121 is not particularly limited here, and can be any one of the following: arc-shaped groove, rectangular groove or stepped groove.

[0033] It can be noted that the mounting base 12 can be installed on the housing 1 in various ways, such as by bolting, welding, riveting, or snap-fit ​​connection. Furthermore, the mounting base 12 can also be detachably connected to the housing 1 by adhesive bonding, magnetic attraction, or sliding rail engagement. In another embodiment, the mounting base 12 and the housing 1 can be integrally molded, for example, by injection molding, stamping, or casting to form a single structure. The mounting base 12 can also employ a quick-release structure, such as using a spring pin, latch, or eccentric wheel mechanism for rapid installation and removal. In a preferred embodiment, the mounting base 12 is provided with positioning holes or positioning protrusions, and the housing 1 is provided with corresponding positioning structures to ensure precise positioning of the mounting base 12.

[0034] It is understood that the clearance cavity 121 can be formed in various ways, including but not limited to the following: machining: the clearance cavity 121 is directly machined into the base material through machining processes such as milling, drilling or wire cutting. This method is suitable for machinable materials such as metals and plastics; casting: the clearance cavity 121 structure is directly formed through mold design during the casting process. This method is suitable for mass-produced metal or plastic parts; assembly: the clearance cavity 121 structure is formed by assembling multiple prefabricated parts. This method facilitates later maintenance and component replacement; compression molding: the clearance cavity 121 structure is formed in composite materials using hot pressing or cold pressing processes.

[0035] It can be noted that the rotatable connection between the mounting base 12 and the rotating component 22 can be achieved in various ways, the most common of which include bearing connection, sliding connection, and flexible connection. Bearing connection is widely used due to its low friction and long service life, but it is costly and requires strict installation accuracy; sliding connection has a simple structure and low cost, but high friction loss, and is suitable for low-speed and light-load applications; flexible connection can absorb vibration and compensate for deviations, but its stiffness is low, which may affect transmission accuracy. When selecting a specific connection method, factors such as load, speed, accuracy requirements, and economy must be comprehensively considered. Specifically, in one embodiment, the mounting base 12 includes a hinge, and the rotating component 22 includes a hinge, and the two are rotatably connected by a connecting pin.

[0036] In one embodiment, the mounting base 12 includes a mounting part 122 and a support part 123. The support part 123 is mounted on the housing 1. The mounting part 122 is rotatably configured with the rotating member 22. An avoidance cavity 121 is formed between the support part 123 and the mounting part 122.

[0037] This design allows the clearance cavity 121 to provide sufficient space for the movement of the rotating component 22, preventing interference between the connecting part 21 and the mounting base 12, thus ensuring smooth operation of the rotating component 22. Simultaneously, the clearance cavity 121 reduces the weight of the mounting base 12, lowers material costs, and facilitates heat dissipation and stress dispersion.

[0038] like Figure 6 As shown, in another embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the clearance cavity 121 is circular, elliptical, polygonal, or irregular. The specific shape can be optimized according to the movement trajectory and space constraints of the rotating member 22. The depth and width of the clearance cavity 121 can be adjusted according to the size and movement range of the rotating member 22 so that the rotating member 22 is always located within the clearance cavity 121 during movement, avoiding collision with the mounting base 12.

[0039] In one embodiment, the clearance cavity has an opening facing the connecting portion 21 and located on the rotation trajectory of the connecting portion 21.

[0040] This design allows the connecting part 21 to smoothly enter or exit the clearance cavity during rotation, improving assembly efficiency and ease of operation. Furthermore, the opening's location on the rotation trajectory prevents interference between the connecting part 21 and other parts of the clearance cavity during movement, ensuring smooth and precise motion.

[0041] It is understood that the positions of the mounting base 12 and the rotating component 22 are not specifically limited here. They can be located on the top, bottom, or side of the housing 1. The specific positions need to be rationally designed according to the internal space layout and usage requirements of the housing 1. If the mounting base 12 is located on the top of the housing 1, the upper space can be fully utilized, making it easy for the door 2 to open downwards; if it is located at the bottom, it is conducive to the door 2 to flip upwards, which is suitable for scenarios that require operation from below; if it is located on the side, it is suitable for the side-opening door 2 design, which facilitates opening actions in the left and right directions. Different installation positions can adapt to diverse usage environments and operating habits.

[0042] In one embodiment, the mounting base 12 is disposed on the side of the housing 1 facing the door 2, and the rotating member 22 is disposed on the side of the door 2 facing the housing 1.

[0043] This configuration, placing the mounting base 12 on the side of the housing 1 facing the door 2, ensures a stable connection between the door 2 and the housing 1 during opening and closing, preventing shaking or detachment due to improper installation. Simultaneously, the rotating component 22, located on the side of the door 2 facing the housing 1, facilitates smoother rotation of the door 2, reducing friction and resistance, and improving the door 2's lifespan and operational comfort. Furthermore, this configuration conceals the mounting base 12 and the rotating component 22, reducing visible mechanical parts and resulting in a smoother surface for the door 2, maintaining a clean and aesthetically pleasing exterior design. This concealed design also effectively prevents dust and debris from entering the rotating parts, reducing maintenance frequency and the risk of malfunction, further enhancing the product's practicality and durability.

[0044] In one embodiment, the thickness of the mounting portion 122 is greater than the thickness of the support portion 123, and is used to support the rotating member 22.

[0045] This design enhances the structural strength of the mounting portion 122, enabling it to withstand greater loads and torques when supporting the rotating component 22, thus preventing deformation or breakage due to excessive stress. Furthermore, the thickness difference between the mounting portion 122 and the support portion 123 optimizes stress distribution, reduces stress concentration, and extends the service life of the component.

[0046] Understandably, the mounting base 12 and the support 123 can be installed separately. Manufacturing the mounting base 12 and the support 123 separately can reduce processing difficulty, improve production efficiency, and also allow for individual replacement of a damaged component, reducing maintenance costs. In addition, the separate design allows for flexible adjustment of the height or angle of the support 123 according to different usage scenarios, improving the product's adaptability.

[0047] In one embodiment, the mounting base 12 and the support portion 123 form an integral structure.

[0048] This integrated design simplifies the assembly process, reduces the number of parts, and thus lowers overall weight and production costs. Simultaneously, the one-piece molding enhances the overall strength and stability of the structure, preventing loosening or wear issues that may occur at the joints. Furthermore, the integrated structure provides better sealing performance, preventing dust or moisture from entering the joint area and extending its service life.

[0049] like Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment, the door body 2 includes a door panel 23 and a plurality of side panels 24 surrounding the periphery of the door body 2. A rotating member 22 is disposed at the connection between the door panel 23 and the side panels 24. A clearance groove 25 is provided on the side of the side panel 24 away from the door body 2, and a part of the mounting base 12 is accommodated in the clearance groove 25.

[0050] This design ensures that the door 2 will not interfere with the mounting base 12 during rotation. The clearance groove 25 provides sufficient space for the mounting base 12, preventing rotational obstruction or component wear caused by structural conflicts. Simultaneously, this layout optimizes the connection strength between the door 2 and the side panel 24. The rotating component 22, located at the connection between the door panel 23 and the side panel 24, can evenly distribute stress during rotation, improving the overall structural stability and durability.

[0051] It can be explained that the greater the depth of the clearance groove 25, the less interference the door body 2 will have when rotating relative to the box body 1, thus achieving a larger rotation range. However, since the rotating part 22 is located at the position of the connecting part 21, a balance needs to be struck between the depth of the clearance groove 25 and the strength of the connecting part 21 to ensure that the door body 2 will not interfere with the box body 1 when rotating, while also ensuring the stable installation of the rotating part 22.

[0052] In one embodiment, the clearance groove 25 has a groove bottom surface that is away from the door panel 23, and the height of the groove bottom surface relative to the door body 2 is greater than the maximum height of the rotating member 22 relative to the door body 2.

[0053] This design ensures sufficient connection area between the rotating component 22 and the connecting portion 21, thereby enhancing the stability and reliability of the connection structure. Simultaneously, the larger connection area disperses stress, reduces stress concentration, and extends the service life of both the rotating component 22 and the connecting portion 21.

[0054] In one embodiment, the door body 2 includes two door panels 23 arranged opposite to each other, and a rotating member 22 is provided on the side of the door panels 23 away from each other.

[0055] This arrangement, with two independent doors 2 covering the doorway 11, effectively reduces the size of each door 2, allowing the internal space of the enclosure 1 to be exposed and improving the operator's flexibility. It also reduces the space occupied by the doors 2 when open, minimizing interference with the operational flow of adjacent equipment. Furthermore, it effectively reduces the weight of each door 2, thereby reducing the load on the rotating structure and improving the ease of opening and closing the doors.

[0056] In one embodiment, the door body 2 is provided with a plurality of locking structures at intervals along a first direction. The locking structures are used to lock when the two door panels 23 are closed. The first direction is collinear with the rotation axis of the door body 2.

[0057] This configuration allows multiple locking structures to be evenly distributed and function simultaneously when the door 2 is closed, improving the stability and reliability of the locking mechanism and thus enhancing the sealing performance of both the door 2 and the housing 1 when closed. The first direction is collinear with the rotation axis of the door 2, ensuring that the locking structures experience uniform force during door 2 rotation, preventing locking failure or structural damage due to uneven force distribution. Furthermore, the spacing between the multiple locking structures ensures that if one locking structure fails, the others can still maintain the locked state of the door 2, enhancing system redundancy and security.

[0058] Specifically, the locking structure can be, but is not limited to, a latch, pin, ratchet, or spring pin mechanism, which achieves locking through physical interference; 2) an electromagnetic locking structure, which uses an electromagnet to attract an iron block and achieves remote unlocking through a control circuit; 3) a hydraulic / pneumatic locking structure, which uses a piston to drive the extension and retraction of the locking tongue and achieves closed-loop control with a pressure sensor; 4) a shape memory alloy locking structure, which uses temperature changes to trigger alloy deformation to drive the locking tongue; 5) a magnetic locking structure, which uses a combination of permanent magnets and electromagnets and achieves contactless locking through magnetic pole switching.

The specific structure of the container assembly 100 refers to the above embodiments.
