[0051] The battery box 100 according to an embodiment of the present application is described below with reference to FIG. 1 to FIG. 19 .

[0052] 1-19 , the battery box 100 includes a lower box body 10, which includes a box frame 11, a bottom guard plate 12, and a lower liquid cooling plate 13. The bottom guard plate 12 is fixed to the box frame 11. For example, the bottom guard plate 12 can be fixed to the box frame 11 by welding, which can ensure the stability of the connection between the bottom guard plate 12 and the box frame 11.

[0053] The lower liquid cooling plate 13 is placed on the upper side of the bottom guard plate 12 and is fixedly connected to the chassis frame 11. A liquid cooling channel for the lower liquid cooling plate 13 is formed on the lower liquid cooling plate 13. Cooling liquid circulates in the liquid cooling channel of the lower liquid cooling plate 13 to dissipate heat from the battery modules 31 within the battery box 100. For example, a sealant 34 can be first applied to the side of the lower liquid cooling plate 13 near the bottom guard plate 12 to seal the gap between the lower liquid cooling plate 13 and the chassis frame 11. Countersunk rivets 32 are then used to securely connect the lower liquid cooling plate 13 to the chassis frame 11. A recessed groove 1311 is formed on the lower liquid cooling plate 13 in an area away from the liquid cooling channel of the lower liquid cooling plate 13. The countersunk rivet 32 ​​is received in the recessed groove 1311, ensuring that there are no protruding structures on the lower liquid cooling plate 13, thereby facilitating the placement of the battery modules 31.

[0054] The box frame 11, the bottom guard plate 12 and the lower liquid cooling plate 13 can be connected and fixed to form the lower box 10 of the battery box 100. The box frame 11, the bottom guard plate 12 and the lower liquid cooling plate 13 can be molded separately, which can reduce the mold cost of the lower box 10 and further reduce the cost of the lower box 10.

[0055] In a specific example, the lower liquid cooling plate 13 includes a flow channel plate 131 and a flat plate 132. A flow channel is formed on the flow channel plate 131. The flat plate 132 is covered on the flow channel plate 131. The flat plate 132 and the flow channel plate 131 define the liquid cooling flow channel of the lower liquid cooling plate 13. The coolant flows in the liquid cooling flow channel of the lower liquid cooling plate 13. The coolant is configured to regulate the temperature of the battery module 31.

[0056] According to the battery box 100 of the embodiment of the present application, the lower box body 10 of the battery box 100 includes a box body frame 11, a bottom protective plate 12 and a lower liquid cooling plate 13. The box body frame 11, the bottom protective plate 12 and the lower liquid cooling plate 13 can be molded separately to reduce the mold making cost of the lower box body 10, which can reduce the processing cost of the lower box body 10, and thus reduce the processing cost of the battery box 100.

[0057] According to some embodiments of the present application, with reference to Figures 11 to 16, the box frame 11 includes a first frame 111 and a second frame 112 relative to each other, and the first frame 111 and the second frame 112 both extend along the length direction of the battery box 100, and the first frame 111 and the second frame 112 can be arranged in parallel. The box frame 11 can also include a third frame 113 and a fourth frame 114 relative to each other, and the third frame 113 and the fourth frame 114 both extend along the width direction of the battery box 100, and the third frame 113 and the fourth frame 114 can be arranged in parallel. The first frame 111, the third frame 113, the second frame 112 and the fourth frame 114 can be connected end to end in sequence to form the box frame 11, for example, the first frame 111, the third frame 113, the second frame 112 and the fourth frame 114 can be fixedly connected by welding.

[0058] In a specific example, the box frame 11 can also include multiple fixing seats 115, one fixing seat 115 is fixed at the connection between the first frame 111 and the third frame 113, and the fixing seat 115 is configured to increase the connection strength between the first frame 111 and the third frame 113; one fixing seat 115 is fixed at the connection between the third frame 113 and the second frame 112, and the fixing seat 115 is configured to increase the connection strength between the third frame 113 and the second frame 112; one fixing seat 115 is fixed at the connection between the second frame 112 and the fourth frame 114, and the fixing seat 115 is configured to increase the connection strength between the second frame 112 and the fourth frame 114; one fixing seat 115 is fixed at the connection between the fourth frame 114 and the first frame 111, and the fixing seat 115 is configured to increase the connection strength between the fourth frame 114 and the first frame 111.

[0059] The bottom guard plate 12 includes a first guard plate 121 and a second guard plate 122. The first guard plate 121 extends along the width of the battery box 100, and its ends are fixedly connected to the first frame 111 and the second frame 112, respectively.

There can be multiple second guard plates 122, and the multiple second guard plates 122 can be spaced apart along the width direction of the battery box 100. The second guard plate 122 is fixedly connected to the multiple first guard plates 121, and the two ends of the first guard plate 121 can be fixedly connected to two adjacent first guard plates 121 respectively.

[0061] Setting the box frame 11 as the first frame 111 and the second frame 112 can further reduce the mold opening cost of the box frame 11 and simplify the processing technology of the box frame 11; setting the bottom guard plate 12 as the first guard plate 121 and the second guard plate 122 can further reduce the mold opening cost of the bottom guard plate 12 and simplify the processing technology of the bottom guard plate 12, thereby reducing the cost of the lower box 10.

[0062] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 3 and Figures 14 to 15, a drag hole 1151 is provided on the first frame 111, or a drag hole 1151 is provided on the second frame 112, or both the first frame 111 and the second frame 112 are provided with drag holes 1151. Specifically, the drag hole 1151 can be formed on the side of the fixing seat 115. The lower side of the first frame 111 and the lower side of the second frame 112 are both provided with a plurality of heightening blocks 1121. The plurality of heightening blocks 1121 are spaced apart along the length direction of the battery box 100. The plurality of heightening blocks 1121 make the lower side of the box frame 11 flush, that is, the height H of the box frame 11 is equal, which facilitates the placement of the battery box 100 on a transport vehicle and facilitates the transportation of the battery box 100.

[0063] Multiple battery boxes 100 can form a containerized energy storage system, which includes multiple battery box mounting racks. Multiple raised blocks 1121 on the underside of the battery box 100 allow the underside of the battery box 100 to be flush with the mounting racks, making it easier to place the battery box 100 on the mounting racks. When the battery box 100 requires repair or maintenance, an operating tool can be inserted into the pull hole 1151 to remove the battery box 100 from the mounting rack, facilitating repair or maintenance.

[0064] For example, the raising block 1121 has a pulling hole 1122 , and the transportation tool extends into the pulling hole 1122 and fixes the battery box 100 , and the transportation tool can install the battery box 100 into the container-type energy storage system.

[0065] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 5-6 and 11, the battery box 100 further includes a beam assembly 14, which includes a longitudinal beam 141 and a transverse beam 142. The longitudinal beam 141 extends along the length of the battery box 100, and the transverse beam 142 extends along the width of the battery box 100. A plurality of transverse beams 142 are provided, and the plurality of transverse beams 142 are spaced apart along the length of the battery box 100.

The plurality of transverse beams 142 and the longitudinal beam 141 construct a plurality of separated module installation areas, and the battery module 31 is installed in the module installation area. The longitudinal beam 141 and the transverse beam 142 can limit the battery module 31 in the length direction of the battery box 100, which can facilitate the arrangement of the battery module 31.

[0066] For example, the longitudinal beam 141 and the transverse beam 142 can be fixed to the lower liquid cooling plate 13 , and the beam assembly 14 can be fixed to the lower liquid cooling plate 13 using rivets 33 , which are located in an area of ​​the lower liquid cooling plate 13 avoiding the first flow channel.

[0067] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 2 and 3, the battery box 100 further includes a plurality of module pull bars 15, which are spaced apart in the width direction of the battery box 100, and the module pull bars 15 extend along the length direction of the battery box 100.

The module pull bars 15 are fixedly connected to at least two crossbeams 142. The module pull bars 15 can limit the expansion of the battery module 31 in the length direction of the battery box 100, and can further confine the battery module 31 between the multiple crossbeams 142.

[0068] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 2-3 and 19, the battery box 100 further includes an upper liquid cooling element 16.

The upper liquid cooling element 16 is provided on the upper side of the battery module 31, and the lower liquid cooling plate 13 is provided on the lower side of the battery module 31. The upper liquid cooling element 16 and the lower liquid cooling plate 13 are used to regulate the temperature of the battery module 31, thereby improving the heat exchange efficiency of the battery module 31.

[0069] For example, the upper liquid-cooling member 16 may be formed by a cold-drawn tube process, which may increase the structural strength of the upper liquid-cooling member 16 .

[0070] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 2-3 and 19, the upper liquid cooling part 16 includes a tortuous liquid cooling tube 161, and the liquid cooling tube 161 has the liquid cooling flow channel of the above-mentioned upper liquid cooling part 16.

The water inlet pipe assembly 17 communicates with the liquid cooling channel of the lower liquid cooling plate 13. A power interface 18 electrically connected to an external circuit is provided on the other side of the battery box 100. Positioning the water inlet pipe assembly 17 and the power interface 18 on opposite sides of the battery box 100 allows for water and electricity separation within the battery box 100, reducing the probability of short circuits within the battery box 100.

[0072] For example, the water inlet pipe group 17 includes a first pipe 171 and a second pipe 172 . The first pipe 171 is configured to communicate with the liquid cooling channel of the lower liquid cooling plate 13 , and the second pipe 172 is configured to communicate with the liquid cooling channel of the upper liquid cooling component 16 .

[0073] According to some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figures 1 to 3, the battery box 100 further includes an upper box body 20, which includes a top plate 21 and side plates 22. The side plates 22 surround the outer periphery of the top plate 21 and are fixedly connected to the box frame 11. The battery module 31 is located in the accommodating cavity defined by the upper box body 20 and the lower box body 10. For example, the side plates 22 can be fixedly connected to the box frame 11 by screwing.

[0074] The battery pack according to the second embodiment of the present application includes a battery box according to the first embodiment of the present application.

[0075] According to the battery pack of the embodiment of the present application, by providing the above-mentioned battery box 100, the mold opening cost of the lower box body 10 can be reduced, thereby reducing the processing cost of the battery box 100, and further reducing the processing cost of the battery pack.
