[0001] The present invention relates to a battery pack.

[0002] This disclosure claims the benefit of priority to Republic of Korea Patent Application No. 10-2023-0120261, filed September 11, 2023, the entire contents of which are incorporated by reference herein.

[0003] Unlike primary batteries, secondary batteries can be charged and discharged multiple times. They are widely used as the energy source for various wireless devices, such as cell phones, laptops, and cordless vacuum cleaners. Recently, improvements in energy density and economies of scale have dramatically reduced the manufacturing costs of electric-powered hybrid electric vehicles (HEVs), plug-in hybrid electric vehicles (PHEVs), and battery electric vehicles (BEVs). Furthermore, as BEVs' ranges have increased to match those of fuel-powered vehicles, the primary use of secondary batteries is shifting from mobile devices to mobility.

[0004] As secondary batteries become increasingly used in mobility, demand for their stability is increasing. Consequently, a battery pack that can protect secondary batteries from external shocks while maintaining a constant temperature is needed.

[0005] The problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide a battery pack that can protect the battery from external impact while maintaining the temperature of the battery at a constant level.

[0006] To solve the above-described problem, according to some embodiments, a battery pack is provided. The battery pack includes: a base plate; a plurality of side walls extending from an upper surface of the base plate in a first direction perpendicular to an upper surface of the base plate; and a plurality of battery devices arranged in a space provided by the upper surface of the base plate and the plurality of side walls; wherein the base plate may include foam.

[0007] The above base plate may include at least one hollow portion.

[0008] The above base plate may be manufactured by an extrusion process.

[0009] The above base plate may be seamless.

[0010] At least one of the plurality of side walls may comprise a foam.

[0011] The plurality of side walls may include at least one hollow space.

[0012] The above plurality of side walls may be manufactured by an extrusion process.

[0013] The above plurality of side walls may be seamless.

[0014] The battery pack further includes a first bulkhead interposed between the plurality of battery devices; and a plurality of second bulkheads perpendicular to the first bulkhead and interposed between the plurality of battery devices, wherein the first bulkhead may include foam.

[0015] The above first bulkhead may include at least one hollow space.

[0016] At least one of the plurality of second bulkheads may include foam.

[0017] The plurality of second bulkheads may include at least one hollow space.

[0018] The above foam may be at least one selected from the group consisting of polyurethane foam and silicone foam.

[0019] The battery pack includes a base plate; a plurality of side walls extending from an upper surface of the base plate in a first direction perpendicular to an upper surface of the base plate; and a plurality of battery devices arranged in a space provided by the upper surface of the base plate and the plurality of side walls; wherein a foam layer including foam may be arranged on a lower surface of the base plate.

[0020] The above foam may be at least one selected from the group consisting of polyurethane foam and silicone foam.

[0021] The battery pack according to the present invention can protect the battery from external impact while maintaining a constant temperature. Consequently, the stability of the battery pack can be enhanced.

[0039] Figure 2 is a cross-sectional view taken along the cutting line 1A-1A' of Figure 1.

[0040] Figure 3 is a cross-sectional view taken along the cutting line 1B-1B' of Figure 1.

[0041] Referring to FIGS. 1 to 3, a battery pack (100) may include a base plate (110), a plurality of side walls (120A, 120B, 130A, 130B), a plurality of battery devices (140), a first bulkhead (150), a plurality of second bulkheads (160), an electrical component bulkhead (170), and a lid (180). The battery pack (100) may be the final form of a battery system mounted on a mobility device, etc.

[0042] Hereinafter, two directions substantially parallel to the upper surface (110T) of the base plate (110) are defined as the X direction and the Y direction, respectively, and the direction substantially perpendicular to the upper surface (110T) of the base plate (110) is defined as the Z direction. The X direction, the Y direction, and the Z direction may be substantially perpendicular to each other.

[0043] The base plate (110) can support a plurality of side walls (120A, 120B, 130A, 130B), a plurality of battery devices (140), a first bulkhead (150), a plurality of second bulkheads (160), and an electrical component bulkhead (170).

[0044] In some embodiments, the base plate (110) may include at least one hollow (111). The hollow (111) may be exposed to the outside of the base plate (110). The hollow (111) may extend in the X direction from the side surface of the base plate (110). The extending direction of the hollow (111) may be substantially perpendicular to the Y direction. As a non-limiting example, the shape of the hollow (111) may be a rounded square column, a square column, a circular column, an elliptical column, etc. The base plate (110) may include two or more hollows (111). The plurality of hollows (111) may be substantially parallel to each other. The shapes of each of the plurality of hollows (111) may be different from each other. The plurality of hollows (111) may all have the same shape. The volumes of each of the plurality of hollows (111) may be different from each other.

[0045] In some embodiments, the base plate (110) may be manufactured by an extrusion process. As a non-limiting example, the extrusion process may be a direct extrusion process or an indirect extrusion process. In some embodiments, the material of the base plate (110) may be aluminum or an alloy including aluminum. The hollow portion (111) of the above-described base plate (110) may be formed by an extrusion process.

[0046] In some embodiments, the base plate (110) may be seamless. The base plate (110) may be seamless as it is manufactured by the extrusion process described above. In the present specification, "seamless" may mean that there is no joint or contact line in the hollow portion (111) of the base plate (110).

[0047] In some embodiments, the base plate (110) may include foam (112). In some embodiments, the foam (112) may be disposed in at least one hollow (111) of the base plate (110). The foam (112) may be disposed in at least one of the plurality of hollows (111) of the base plate (110). The volume of the foam (112) may be substantially equal to the volume of the hollow (111).

[0048] In some embodiments, the foam (112) may be one or more selected from the group consisting of polyurethane foam and silicone foam.

[0049] As the foam (112) is included in the base plate (110), even if an impact is applied from the bottom of the battery pack (100), the foam (112) can absorb the impact, thereby protecting the plurality of battery devices (140) from external impact. As the foam (112) is included in the base plate (110), the movement of heat between the inside and the outside of the battery pack (100) can be blocked, thereby maintaining the temperature of the plurality of battery devices (140) constant.

[0050] As a non-limiting example, the base plate (110) may include a cooling conduit (not shown). Since the cooling conduit is included in the base plate (110), even if a thermal runaway event occurs in the battery device (140), the coolant flowing in the cooling conduit can absorb the heat and prevent the thermal runaway event from spreading to adjacent battery devices (140).

[0051] A plurality of side walls (120A, 120B, 130A, 130B) may extend in the Z direction from the upper surface (110T) of the base plate.
