[0010] Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings. To facilitate understanding of the description, the same components are denoted by the same reference numerals in the drawings, and redundant description may be omitted. In this specification, a three-dimensional Cartesian coordinate system with three axial directions (X, Y, and Z) is used, and one of two mutually orthogonal directions in a plane parallel to the surface F1 of the plate-like body 3 is defined as the X direction, the other as the Y direction, and the direction perpendicular to the surface F1 of the plate-like body 3 is defined as the Z direction. The orientation of the heat exchanger 1 during use is not limited to the example shown in FIGS. 1 and 2.

[0011] <Heat exchange equipment> Fig. 1 is a perspective view of a heat exchange device according to an embodiment as seen from one direction, Fig. 2 is an exploded perspective view of a heat exchange device according to an embodiment as seen from one direction, Fig. 3 is a perspective view of a heat exchange device according to an embodiment as seen from another direction, Fig. 4 is a perspective view of a bag according to an embodiment, and Fig. 5 is a view showing a cross section II of Fig. 4. In Fig. 4, solid and dashed arrows indicate the flow of a heat exchange medium.

[0012] As shown in FIGS. 1 to 4 , the heat exchanger 1 includes a bag 2 having a heat exchange passage 23 therein through which a heat exchange medium L flows, and a plate-like body 3. The plate-like body 3 includes a supply passage 31 communicating with one end of the heat exchange passage 23 and supplying the heat exchange medium L to the heat exchange passage 23, and a recovery passage 32 communicating with the other end of the heat exchange passage 23 and recovering the heat exchange medium L. In the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 3 , a plurality of bags 2 are attached to the plate-like body 3 in parallel and spaced apart from each other. In this case, the object to be cooled, such as a battery, can be cooled by placing it between adjacent bags 2. In this embodiment, an example in which the heat exchanger 1 includes a plurality of bags 2 will be described, but the present invention is not limited thereto, and the heat exchanger 1 may include a single bag 2.

[0013] The pouch 2 has an inlet 241 through which the heat exchange medium L flows in and an outlet 251 through which the heat exchange medium L flows out. The pouch 2 may have a rectangular shape in plan view, for example.

[0014] As shown in Fig. 5, the bag body 2 may include a top sheet 21 and a back sheet 22 facing the top sheet 21. The bag body 2 may be formed by folding a single sheet, or may be formed by bonding together multiple sheets. In other words, the top sheet 21 and the top sheet 22 may be formed from a single sheet, or may each be formed from a separate sheet.

[0015] The top sheet 21 may be made of a laminated film having a first sealant layer 211 on the innermost side, and the back sheet 22 may be made of a laminated film having a second sealant layer 221 on the innermost side.

[0016] Specifically, the top sheet 21 can be formed from a laminated film in which a first sealant layer 211 and a base material layer 212 are laminated together. From the viewpoint of thermal adhesion, the material forming the first sealant layer 211 is preferably the same type of material as the material forming the first mouth member 24 and the second mouth member 25 described below.

[0017] Examples of materials that can be used to form the first sealant layer 211 include polyethylene and polypropylene. The material that can be used to form the first sealant layer 211 is preferably polypropylene. By using polypropylene as the material that can be used to form the first sealant layer 211, the sealed portion (heat-sealed portion) of the bag body 2 can obtain high adhesive strength in a high-temperature environment, and the bag body 2 can also have appropriate rigidity. As the polypropylene, unstretched polypropylene (CPP) can be suitably used.

[0018] It is more preferable that the material constituting the first sealant layer 211 contains block polypropylene, which can prevent the heat exchange medium L from permeating from the first sealant layer 211 into the base material layer 212.

[0019] The first sealant layer 211 may be composed of one layer or multiple layers. When the first sealant layer 211 is composed of multiple layers, it is preferably a three-layer structure in which a layer made of block polypropylene is sandwiched between two layers made of random polypropylene. The layer made of block polypropylene has the function of suppressing the heat exchange medium L from penetrating into the adjacent layers, and the layer made of random polypropylene has the function of firmly adhering to the other layers. Therefore, by adopting the above-mentioned three-layer structure, the durability of the bag body 2 can be improved.

[0020] The base material layer 212 may be composed of one layer or multiple layers. Fig. 6 is a schematic diagram of a cross section of a top sheet of a bag according to one embodiment. For example, as shown in Fig. 6, the base material layer 212 may be composed of multiple layers in which a metal layer 212a, resin layers 212b, and 212c are laminated in this order on a first sealant layer 211.

[0021] The metal layer 212a can be, for example, a metal foil, a metal vapor deposition film, or the like. Examples of materials that form the metal layer 212a include aluminum, copper, stainless steel, and titanium. Among these, it is preferable that the material that forms the metal layer 212a contains aluminum. This can further improve the cooling efficiency of the heat exchanger 1 and reduce its weight.

[0022] The thickness of the metal layer 212a is preferably 7 μm or more, and more preferably 30 μm or more. When the thickness of the metal layer 212a is 7 μm or more, the heat exchanger 1 can further improve the cooling efficiency and also obtain good handleability. The thickness of the metal layer 212a is preferably 60 μm or less, and more preferably 50 μm or less. When the thickness of the metal layer 212a is 60 μm or less, the bag body 2 can have sufficient flexibility to adhere closely to the heat exchange object.

[0023] In the example shown in FIG. 6, the resin layer is composed of two layers, but it may be composed of one layer or three or more layers. When the resin layers 212b and 212c are composed of two layers, for example, the inner resin layer 212b may be composed of nylon and the outer resin layer 212c may be composed of polyethylene terephthalate. When the resin layer 212b is composed of nylon, the bag 2 can improve its pressure resistance when the heat exchange medium L flows through the heat exchange flow path 23, and can suppress the occurrence of pinholes. When the resin layer 212c is composed of polyethylene terephthalate, the bag 2 can improve its scratch resistance. Examples of materials that can be used to compose the resin layers 212b and 212c include nylon, polyethylene terephthalate, and polyester.

[0024] The layers constituting the top sheet 21 may be bonded via an adhesive layer or an anchor layer, or may be bonded directly. The top sheet 21 may have layers other than the metal layer 212a and the resin layers 212b and 212c on the outside of the first sealant layer 211.

[0025] The configuration of the back sheet 22 is the same as that of the above-mentioned top sheet 21, and therefore a description thereof will be omitted. The configuration of the second sealant layer 221 is the same as that of the above-mentioned first sealant layer 211, and therefore a description thereof will be omitted.

[0026] The thickness of each of the top sheet 21 and the back sheet 22 is preferably 150 μm or more and 350 μm or less, and more preferably 200 μm or more and 300 μm or less.

[0027] 4 and 5, the bag 2 may have a peripheral seal portion S1 at its periphery, where the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221 are joined, and an inner seal portion S2, where the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221 are joined, on the inside of the peripheral seal portion S1. The peripheral seal portion S1 and the inner seal portion S2 are, for example, seal portions where the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221 are heat-sealed. The bag 2 may be a pouch container.

[0028] The heat exchange flow path 23 is composed of a peripheral seal portion S1, an inner seal portion S2, and the inner surface of the bag body 2. In the example shown in FIG. 4, the heat exchange flow path 23 has a wave shape with three folded portions in a plan view. The shape of the heat exchange flow path 23 in a plan view may be, for example, a rectangular wave shape, a sine wave shape, a triangular wave shape, or the like. That is, the shape of the heat exchange flow path 23 in a plan view may be a shape with repeated U-shapes or a shape with repeated V-shapes. When the heat exchange flow path 23 has a wave shape in a plan view, the number of folded portions may be an odd number.

[0029] The bag body 2 may include a first mouth member 24 having an inlet 241 and a second mouth member 25 having an outlet 251. The first mouth member 24 and the second mouth member 25 are provided between the top sheet 21 and the back sheet 22, and are heat-sealed to the first sealant layer 221 and the second sealant layer 221, respectively.

[0030] The material constituting the first mouth member 24 and the second mouth member 25 can be suitably used as long as it can bond with the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221 to ensure hermetic sealing, and is preferably a material that can be heat-sealed with the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221. From the viewpoint of heat-sealing properties, the material constituting the first mouth member 24 and the second mouth member 25 is more preferably the same type of material as the material constituting the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221.

[0031] The first and second mouth members 24 and 25 may be cylindrical members and may have a flange extending outward from one end. The first and second mouth members 24 and 25 may be spouts. When the first and second mouth members 24 and 25 are spouts having a flange, the contact areas between the first and second mouth members 24 and 25 and the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221, respectively, are increased, thereby increasing the adhesive strength therebetween.

[0032] When the shape of the bag body 2 is quadrangular in a plan view, the first port member 24 and the second port member 25 are provided on one side of the bag body 2. With this configuration, the supply flow path 31 and the recovery flow path 32 can be arranged together on that one side of the bag body 2, making it possible to reduce the size of the heat exchanger 1. In the example shown in FIGS. 1 to 4, the shape of the bag body 2 is rectangular in a plan view, and the first port member 24 and the second port member 25 are provided on the short sides of the bag body 2.

[0033] 3 , the plate-like body 3 has a first boss portion 33 having an outlet hole 331 that communicates with the supply flow path 31 and through which the heat exchange medium L flows out, and a second boss portion 34 that communicates with the recovery flow path 32 and has an inlet hole 341 through which the heat exchange medium L flows in. The first boss portion 33 is fitted into the inlet 241, and the second boss portion 34 is fitted into the outlet 251. By fitting the first boss portion 33 into the inlet 241 and the second boss portion 34 into the outlet 251, the outlet hole 331 of the first boss portion 33 and the inlet 241 of the bag body 2 are communicated, and the inlet hole 341 of the second boss portion 34 and the outlet 251 of the bag body 2 are communicated. The outlet hole 331 and the inlet 241 are arranged coaxially, and the inlet hole 341 and the outlet 251 are arranged coaxially.

[0034] The plate-shaped body 3 may have a plurality of first boss portions 33 and a plurality of second boss portions 34. When the plate-shaped body 3 has a plurality of first boss portions 33 and a plurality of second boss portions 34, a plurality of pairs of the first boss portions 33 and the second boss portions 34 are provided spaced apart from each other on the back surface of the plate-shaped body 3 (the surface on the side where the bag body 2 is arranged).

[0035] The first boss 33 and the inlet 241, and the second boss 34 and the outlet 251 are respectively fitted together in a liquid-tight manner. The first boss 33 and the inlet 241, and the second boss 34 and the outlet 251 may be fitted together via an O-ring, by heat fusion, or by an adhesive. An example of the adhesive is an adhesive containing modified silicone.

[0036] FIG. 7 is a diagram illustrating the flow of a heat exchange medium in a heat exchanger according to one embodiment. In FIG. 7, the supply flow path 31, the recovery flow path 32, and the heat exchange flow path 23 are indicated by dashed lines, and other components are omitted. Also, in FIG. 7, arrows indicate the flow of the heat exchange medium L. As shown in FIG. 7, the heat exchange medium L circulating through the supply flow path 31 inside the plate-like body 3 flows from the inlet 241 of the bag body 2 through the outlet hole 331 into one end (the upstream end) of the heat exchange flow path 23 inside the bag body 2. Upon reaching the other end of the heat exchange flow path 23, the heat exchange medium L flows from the inlet hole 341 through the outlet 251 of the bag body 2 into the recovery flow path 32 inside the plate-like body 3.

[0037] The heat exchange medium L exchanges heat with the heat exchange target while flowing through the heat exchange flow path 23 and circulates as shown in FIG. 7, allowing the heat exchange device 1 to maintain its cooling performance. When the heat exchange device 1 includes multiple bags 2, the heat exchange medium L flowing through the supply flow path 31 inside the plate-shaped body 3 is diverted to the inlets 241 of the multiple bags 2, and the heat exchange medium L flowing out from the outlets 251 of the multiple bags 2 merges into the recovery flow path 32 inside the plate-shaped body 3. The heat exchange medium L that merges into the recovery flow path 32 is sent to, for example, a radiator or the like, where it is cooled, and then returns to the supply flow path 31. In the example shown in FIG. 7, the heat exchange medium L flowing through the supply flow path 31 is diverted in a direction perpendicular to the supply flow path 31, and the heat exchange medium L flowing out from the outlets 251 of the multiple bags 2 merges into the recovery flow path 32 in a direction perpendicular to the supply flow path 31.

[0038] The plate-shaped body 3 has a first groove 35 and a second groove 36 that open on a surface F1 (the surface opposite to the surface on which the bag body 2 is disposed) and extend in a first direction (X direction), and the first groove 35 and the second groove 36 are arranged in parallel. That is, the surface F1 of the plate-shaped body 3 has two openings 351 and 361. The plate-shaped body 3 has sealing members 37 that seal the openings 351 and 361 of the first groove 35 and the second groove 36, respectively. The plate-shaped body 3 may have two sealing members 37, and one opening may be sealed with one sealing member 37. The plate-shaped body 3 may have one sealing member 37, and the two openings 351 and 361 may be sealed with one sealing member 37.

[0039] The sealing member 37 can be a film-like member or a sheet-like member. The thickness of the sealing member 37 can be, for example, 10 μm or more and 100 μm or less. The sealing member 37 may have a heat-sealable resin layer on one surface. When the sealing member 37 has a heat-sealable resin layer on one surface, the heat-sealable resin layer and the surface F1 of the plate-like body 3 may be heat-sealed. Examples of materials that can be used to form the heat-sealable resin layer include polyethylene and polypropylene. The heat-sealable resin layer may be composed of one layer or multiple layers.

[0040] <Battery pack> FIG. 8 is a perspective view of a battery pack according to one embodiment as viewed from one direction. As shown in FIG. 8, a battery pack 10 of this embodiment includes the heat exchange device 1 of this embodiment and a plurality of battery cells 4. Each of the plurality of battery cells 4 is disposed between each of the plurality of pouches 2. It is preferable that each of the plurality of battery cells 4 is disposed in contact with an adjacent pouch 2. In the example shown in FIG. 8, when viewed from the X direction, the outer dimensions of the battery cells 4 are smaller than the outer dimensions of the pouch 2, but may be larger than or the same as the outer dimensions of the pouch 2.

[0041] The battery pack 10 may include a support member 5 that supports the plurality of battery cells 4. The battery pack 10 may further include a cover (not shown) that covers the heat exchange device 1 and the plurality of battery cells 4.

[0042] As described above, the heat exchanger 1 of this embodiment includes the bag 2 and the plate-like body 3 having the supply flow path 31 and the recovery flow path 32. The bag 2 has an inlet 241 and an outlet 251. The plate-like body 3 has a first boss 33 and a second boss 34. The first boss 33 fits into the inlet 241, and the second boss 34 fits into the outlet 251. This configuration allows the bag 2 to be positioned opposite both sides of the heat exchange object, enabling cooling from both sides of the heat exchange object. Furthermore, if the heat exchange object is a battery, the bag 2 can follow the deformation of the battery and maintain contact with the battery even if the battery expands due to charging / discharging, aging, internal pressure increase, etc. Therefore, the heat exchanger 1 can improve cooling performance. Furthermore, since the first boss portion 33 is fitted into the inlet 241 and the second boss portion 34 is fitted into the outlet 251, the heat exchange device 1 can prevent the heat exchange medium L from leaking from the connection between the bag body 2 and the plate-like body 3, thereby maintaining cooling performance.

[0043] In this embodiment, the bag 2 includes a top sheet 21, a back sheet 22, a first mouth member 24, and a second mouth member 25. The top sheet 21 is made of a laminated film having a first sealant layer 211 on its innermost side, and the back sheet 22 is made of a laminated film having a second sealant layer 221 on its innermost side. The first mouth member 24 and the second mouth member 25 are provided between the top sheet 21 and the back sheet 22 and are heat-sealed to the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221, respectively. With this configuration, the first mouth member 24 and the second mouth member 25 are heat-sealed to the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221, respectively, and are therefore bonded to the first sealant layer 211 and the second sealant layer 221 with sufficient adhesive strength. Therefore, the heat exchange device 1 can prevent the heat exchange medium L from leaking from the bag 2 and can further maintain cooling performance.

[0044] In this embodiment, the outlet hole 331 and the inlet 241 are arranged coaxially, and the inlet hole 341 and the outlet 251 are arranged coaxially. This reduces pressure loss when the heat exchange medium L flows into or out of the pouch 2, and allows the heat exchange medium L to spread throughout the entire pouch 2. Therefore, the heat exchange device 1 can further improve cooling performance.

[0045] In this embodiment, the pouch 2 has a peripheral seal S1 and an inner seal S2, and the heat exchange flow path 23 is composed of the peripheral seal S1, the inner seal S2, and the inner surface of the pouch 2. This configuration allows the width of the inner seal S2 to be relatively small, thereby increasing the ratio of the area of the heat exchange flow path 23 to the area of the pouch 2. Therefore, the heat exchange device 1 can relatively increase the contact area between the heat exchange medium L and the heat exchange object, further improving cooling performance.

[0046] In this embodiment, each of the top sheet 21 and the back sheet 22 includes a metal layer, which allows the heat exchange device 1 to have improved heat exchange efficiency and therefore further improved cooling performance.

[0047] In this embodiment, the plate-shaped body 3 has a plurality of first boss portions 33 and a plurality of second boss portions 34, and a plurality of pouches 2 are attached to the plate-shaped body 3 in parallel and spaced apart from one another. With this configuration, when the heat exchange object is a battery, each of the plurality of battery cells constituting the battery can be placed between the plurality of pouches 2, and all of the battery cells can be cooled from both sides. This allows the heat exchange device 1 to further improve its cooling performance.

[0048] The battery pack 10 of this embodiment includes a heat exchange device 1 and a plurality of battery cells 4, each of which is disposed between a plurality of pouches 2. With this configuration, the heat exchange device 1 can cool the battery cells 4 from both sides. Furthermore, even if the battery cells 4 expand due to charging / discharging, aging, an increase in internal pressure, or the like, the pouch 2 can follow the deformation of the battery cells 4 and maintain contact with the battery cells 4. Therefore, the battery pack 10 can improve the cooling performance of the battery cells 4.
