[0003] With the continuous development of new energy technologies, various energy storage-related technologies are also constantly being upgraded. Among them, energy storage containers, which use containers as a storage method for energy, have gained widespread application. Energy storage containers contain a variety of modular equipment, including energy storage modules (such as battery clusters, batteries, and battery cells), liquid cooling equipment, firefighting equipment, power distribution modules, signal and power supply modules, etc. Therefore, the rational layout of the space inside the energy storage container is particularly critical.

[0045] By adopting the above-mentioned technical solution, among the peripheral side surfaces of the box body, two intersecting side surfaces are provided with an open door structure, and the other two intersecting side surfaces are not provided with a door structure and are in a closed structure.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0071] The following describes in detail embodiments of the present application, examples of which are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals throughout represent the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are intended to be used to explain the present application, and should not be construed as limiting the present application.

[0072] In the description of this application, it should be understood that the terms "length", "width", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation on this application.

[0073] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of the technical features being referred to. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the features. Throughout the description of this application, "plurality" means two or more, unless otherwise specifically defined.

[0074] In this application, unless otherwise expressly specified or limited, terms such as "mounted," "connected," "connect," and "fixed" should be understood in a broad sense. For example, they may refer to fixed connections, detachable connections, or integration; mechanical connections or electrical connections; direct connections or indirect connections through an intermediate medium; and internal connections between two components or interactions between two components. Those skilled in the art will understand the specific meanings of these terms in this application based on specific circumstances.

[0075] With the continuous development of new energy technologies, various energy storage-related technologies are also constantly being upgraded. Among them, energy storage containers, which use containers as a storage method for energy, have gained widespread application. Energy storage containers consist of a container body and various modular devices contained within it, such as energy storage modules (such as battery clusters, batteries, and battery cells), liquid cooling equipment, firefighting equipment, power distribution modules, and signal and power supply modules. Considering the transportation of energy storage containers, the container body is generally a standard-sized container. Therefore, due to the size limitations of standard-sized energy storage containers, the rational layout of the internal space of the energy storage container is particularly critical.

[0076] In the related art, the space in the box for accommodating energy storage modules and the space for accommodating other modules are generally cross-divided; for example, liquid cooling equipment and fire-fighting equipment are integrated in the space for accommodating energy storage modules. Since multiple modular equipment are integrated in the same space, the arrangement of lines, pipes, etc. in the same space will affect the use of the space. Therefore, the space utilization rate in the box is low at this time, which will also affect the energy storage density and is not conducive to the separate maintenance of multiple modular equipment; or, liquid cooling equipment, fire-fighting equipment and other multiple modular equipment are respectively located at opposite ends of the space for accommodating energy storage units. At this time, if there are multiple energy storage containers, multiple energy storage containers cannot be arranged adjacent to each other, otherwise it will affect the maintenance work of multiple modular equipment. Therefore, the multiple energy storage containers occupy a larger area and the energy storage density per unit area will also be reduced.

[0077] Based on the above considerations, in order to solve the problem of the rationality of the internal layout of the energy storage container, an energy storage container is designed. By arranging the electrical compartment and the liquid cooling unit on the same side of the battery compartment along the first direction, that is, the electrical compartment and the liquid cooling unit are separated from the battery compartment and independently arranged, the space utilization rate of the container can be effectively improved. When multiple energy storage containers are arranged, the battery compartment sides of two adjacent energy storage containers can be placed against each other, which can reduce the space occupied by the arrangement of multiple energy storage containers and increase the energy storage density per unit area.

[0078] Please refer to Figures 1, 2 and 5. In the first aspect, an embodiment of the present application provides an energy storage container 100, including a box body 10, and a battery compartment 20, an electrical compartment 30 and a liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged inside the box body 10; the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged on the same end side of the battery compartment 20 in the first direction O.

[0079] The box body 10 is the container body structure of the energy storage container 100, and the box body 10 is a standard container size; a cavity is formed inside the box body 10 for other module equipment such as the battery compartment 20, the electrical compartment 30, and the liquid cooling unit 40 to be arranged in the box body 10.

[0080] It should be understood that the box body 10 as a container can be a rectangular parallelepiped structure. For ease of description, the embodiment of the present application defines three directions based on the rectangular parallelepiped container, wherein the length direction of the box body 10 can be defined as a first direction O, the width direction of the box body 10 can be defined as a second direction P, and the height direction of the box body 10 can be defined as a third direction Q. Therefore, in the embodiment of the present application, the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged on the same side of the battery compartment 20 in the first direction O, that is, the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 can be arranged on the same side of the battery compartment 20 in the length direction of the box body 10.

[0081] The battery compartment 20 is used to accommodate energy storage modules, such as battery cells, batteries comprising battery cells, or battery clusters formed by series connection of battery cells. Taking battery clusters as an example, the battery compartment 20 can accommodate one or more battery clusters. In the case of multiple battery clusters, the battery clusters are arranged in the battery compartment 20 along a first direction O.

[0082] Optionally, the battery compartment 20 can be formed in the box body 10 by means of partitions, mounting beams, brackets and other structures, and a battery compartment 20 as an independent space can be built using partitions, mounting beams, brackets and other structures to provide for the arrangement of battery clusters, etc.

[0083] The electrical compartment 30 is used to accommodate electrical equipment. For example, the electrical compartment 30 can accommodate, but is not limited to, a distribution box, a main control box, a fire control module, fire pipes, a fan, etc.; optionally, the electrical compartment 30 can be formed by means of partitions, mounting beams, brackets and other structures in the box body 10, and the electrical compartment 30 as an independent space can be built using partitions, mounting beams, brackets and other structures for the arrangement of electrical equipment, etc.

[0084] The liquid cooling unit 40 is a cooling device used to provide circulating coolant to the battery compartment 20. The liquid cooling unit 40 can be directly housed within the housing 10, adjacent to the battery compartment 20. Alternatively, a separate liquid cooling compartment can be constructed within the housing 10 using partitions, mounting beams, brackets, and other structures to accommodate the liquid cooling unit 40. The liquid cooling unit 40 can use a cooling medium such as cooling water, cooling oil, or refrigerant. Alternatively, the liquid cooling unit 40 can be a water-cooled unit for cooling using cooling water.

[0085] Among them, the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged on the same end side of the battery compartment 20 in the first direction O. Optionally, the compartment door of the electrical compartment 30 and the operating end surface of the liquid cooling unit 40 can be located at the end of the box body 10 and exposed to the box body 10. Thus, the operator can operate and maintain the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 on the same side outside the box body 10.

[0086] The energy storage container 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application can effectively improve the space utilization rate of the container by arranging the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 on the same end side of the battery compartment 20 in the first direction O. At the same time, the staff can check the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 on the same end side of the energy storage container 100, which effectively improves the convenience of on-site maintenance. Moreover, when installing and configuring the energy storage container 100, the layout in which the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are located on the same side can also improve the convenience of assembly. When multiple energy storage containers 100 are arranged, the battery compartments 20 of two adjacent energy storage containers 100 can be placed against each other on one side, which can reduce the space occupied by the arrangement of multiple energy storage containers 100 and improve the energy storage density per unit area. Therefore, in the energy storage container 100 provided in the embodiment of the present application, the layout in which the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are located on the same side of the battery compartment 20 is more reasonable.

[0087] Please refer to FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 and FIG. 5 . In some embodiments, the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged along a second direction P, and the second direction P is perpendicular to the first direction O.

[0088] It can be understood that the first direction O may be the length direction of the box body 10 , and thus the second direction P may be the width direction of the box body 10 .

[0089] The electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are located on the same side of the battery compartment 20 in the first direction O, that is, one end side of the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 in the length direction of the box body 10 .

[0090] On this basis, the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are further arranged in a second direction P, that is, the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged in the width direction of the cabinet 10. As a result, the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are located at one end of the cabinet 10 in the longitudinal direction, and the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged sequentially at the end of the cabinet 10 and along the width direction of the cabinet 10. This allows staff to perform maintenance and repairs on the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 simultaneously at the end of the cabinet 10, effectively improving maintenance convenience.

[0091] Optionally, the electrical compartment 30 is formed with a compartment door in the first direction O and toward the outside of the box body 10. The control buttons, display panels, etc. of the fire control module or other modules can be installed on the compartment door of the electrical compartment 30 to fully utilize the space inside the electrical compartment 30, improve the space utilization rate of the electrical compartment 30, and thereby reduce the proportion of the entire electrical compartment 30 in the box body 10, so that the battery compartment 20 can account for a larger proportion of the box body 10, so as to achieve the purpose of increasing the energy storage density.

[0092] Please refer to Figures 3 to 5. In some embodiments, a battery cluster 50 and a main control box 60 are further included. The battery cluster 50 is arranged in the battery compartment 20 along a first direction O. The main control box 60 is provided on one side of the battery cluster 50 in a third direction Q. The battery cluster 50 is electrically connected to the main control box 60. The first direction O, the second direction P, and the third direction Q are all perpendicular to each other.

[0093] A battery cluster 50 is a battery system formed by combining multiple batteries or battery cells into a group that works together under certain conditions. By leveraging the interoperability of the batteries or battery cells, the battery cluster 50 improves the reliability, stability, and lifespan of the entire system. Compared to non-clustered designs, the battery cluster 50 design improves system consistency and reduces the number of connections between battery cells, thereby increasing overall discharge capacity.

[0094] The number of battery clusters 50 can be one or more than one. When there are multiple battery clusters 50, the multiple battery clusters 50 can be arranged in sequence in the battery compartment 20 along the first direction O, that is, the length direction of the box 10.

[0095] The main control box 60 is used to electrically connect to the battery clusters 50, for example, by networking the battery clusters 50 via a CAN (Controller Area Network) communication channel to achieve electrical control of the battery clusters 50. Each battery cluster 50 is provided with a main control box 60 on one side thereof in the third direction Q. This means that each battery cluster 50 is independently controlled by a main control box 60 to enhance controllability.

[0096] The main control box 60 is disposed on one side of the battery cluster 50 along the third direction Q. It is understood that the third direction Q may be the height direction of the housing 10. Thus, the main control box 60 may be disposed above or below the corresponding battery cluster 50 in the height direction of the housing 10 to rationally utilize the space within the battery compartment 20 and minimize the impact on the arrangement of the battery cluster 50 along the first direction O. Alternatively, the main control box 60 may be disposed below the battery cluster 50 in the height direction of the housing 10, thereby placing the main control box 60 at a lower position and facilitating maintenance.

[0097] In this way, by setting up the battery cluster 50, the internal connection structure can be reduced and the system consistency can be improved; at the same time, the main control box 60 is set on the side of the third direction Q of the battery cluster 50, which rationally utilizes the space in the battery compartment 20 and improves the space utilization and maintainability in the battery compartment 20.

[0098] 3 to 6 , in some embodiments, the battery cluster 50 includes at least two electrically connected batteries 51 , and the multiple batteries 51 of the battery cluster 50 are sequentially arranged along a third direction Q.

[0099] Among them, the battery 51 is used to store energy and electrical energy; the battery 51 mentioned in this application may include a battery module or a battery pack, etc. For example, taking the battery 51 including a battery pack as an example, the battery 51 includes a battery box 510 and a battery cell 520, and the battery cell 520 is accommodated in the battery box 510. Among them, the battery box 510 is used to provide a storage space for the battery cell 520, and the battery box 510 can adopt a variety of structures. In some embodiments, the battery box 510 may include a first part 511 and a second part 512, and the first part 511 and the second part 512 cover each other, and the first part 511 and the second part 512 jointly define a storage space for accommodating the battery cell 520. The battery box 510 formed by the first part 511 and the second part 512 can be of various shapes, such as a cylinder, a cuboid, etc.

[0100] The multiple batteries 51 in the battery cluster 50 may be connected in series or in parallel, or the multiple batteries 51 may be connected in a combination of series and parallel connections.

[0101] The battery cluster 50 includes at least two batteries 51, so that the at least two batteries 51 can be arranged in sequence in the third direction Q, that is, the batteries 51 are arranged in sequence in the height direction of the box 10. Optionally, a support rack can be provided in the battery compartment 20 so that the batteries 51 can be supported and placed on the support rack; for example, when the battery cluster 51 includes eight batteries 51, eight support racks are installed in the battery compartment 20 at intervals along the height direction of the box 10, and each battery 51 is mounted on a corresponding support rack; when the number of battery clusters 50 is four, the support racks are arranged in four vertical columns at intervals along the length direction of the box 10, and each vertical column includes eight support racks spaced apart in the height direction. Thus, each vertical column of support racks is used to assemble eight batteries 51 in one battery cluster 50, and four vertical columns of support racks can assemble batteries 51 in four battery clusters 50.

[0102] In some embodiments, the main control box 60 corresponding to each battery cluster 50 is respectively arranged at one end of the battery cluster 50 along the third direction Q, that is, the main control box 60 and the multiple batteries 51 are arranged in the third direction Q, and the main control box 60 is located at one end of the multiple batteries 51 in the third direction Q. Optionally, the main control box 60 can be located at the bottom of the multiple batteries 51 in the height direction of the box body 10.

[0103] In this arrangement, at least two batteries 51 in the battery cluster 50 can be arranged in sequence along the third direction Q. Therefore, when multiple battery clusters 50 are arranged along the first direction O, the arrangement of the batteries 51 rationally utilizes the space in the battery compartment 20, thereby improving the space utilization rate in the battery compartment 20 and further improving the energy storage density of the energy storage container 100.

In this way, when the batteries 51 are arranged in four vertical columns and eight horizontal columns, the space utilization in the battery compartment 20 is better, and thus the energy storage density of the energy storage container 100 is also relatively better.

The number B of batteries 51 within each battery cluster 50 is a positive integer, such as 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, etc.

[0123] The ratio of the sum of the heights BZ of the batteries 51 arranged in the third direction Q to the height N of the battery compartment 20 along the third direction Q is the proportion of the sum of the heights BZ of the batteries 51 arranged in the third direction Q to the height of the battery compartment 20 along the third direction Q.

[0133] Referring to FIG. 1 , FIG. 3 and FIG. 4 , in some embodiments, 0.75≤L / H≤0.9.

[0135] It can be understood that in order to further optimize the proportion of the battery compartment 20 to the box body 10 in the first direction O, the ratio of the length L of the battery compartment 20 along the first direction O to the length H of the box body 10 in the first direction O can be further limited to greater than or equal to 0.75 and less than or equal to 0.9, so as to further optimize the space occupied by the battery compartment 20 in the box body 10, so as to further optimize the capacity of the battery compartment 20 for the battery 51, thereby optimizing the energy density of the energy storage container 100.

[0137] It can be understood that the ratio of the length D of the electrical compartment 30 along the first direction O to the length H of the housing 10 along the first direction O is the weight of the electrical compartment 30 relative to the housing 10 in the first direction O. The liquid cooling unit 40 and the electrical compartment 30 are arranged in the second direction P. Therefore, the weight of the electrical compartment 30 relative to the housing 10 in the first direction O can be considered to be the weight of the liquid cooling unit 40 and the electrical compartment 30 combined relative to the housing 10 in the first direction O.

[0142] It can be understood that in order to further optimize the proportion of the electrical compartment 30 in the first direction O to the box body 10, the ratio of the length D of the electrical compartment 30 along the first direction O to the length H of the box body 10 in the first direction O can be further limited to greater than or equal to 0.1 and less than or equal to 0.2, so as to further optimize the space occupied by the electrical compartment 30 in the box body 10, so as to further reduce the impact of the electrical compartment 30 on the space of the battery compartment 20, thereby optimizing the energy density of the energy storage container 100.

[0143] Referring to FIG. 3 , FIG. 4 , FIG. 6 and FIG. 7 , in some embodiments, the battery 51 includes a battery cell 520 , and the battery cell 520 at least meets the following requirements:

[0144] The length of the battery cell 520 along the first direction O is E, and the number of battery cells 520 arranged in the battery compartment 20 along the first direction O is I, where E ≥ 240 mm (millimeter, hereinafter referred to as mm), 16 ≤ I ≤ 22; the length of the battery compartment 20 along the first direction O is L, and 0.55 ≤ (EI) / L ≤ 0.95;

[0145] And / or, the width of the battery cell 520 along the second direction P is F, the number of battery cells 520 arranged in the battery compartment 20 along the second direction P is J, F ≥ 60 mm, 26 ≤ J ≤ 35; the width of the battery compartment 20 along the second direction P is M, 0.55 ≤ (FJ) / M ≤ 0.95;

[0146] And / or, the height of the battery cell 520 along the third direction Q is G, the number of battery cells 520 arranged along the third direction Q in the battery compartment 20 is K, G≥180mm, 6≤K≤9; the height of the battery compartment 20 along the third direction Q is N, 0.55≤(GK) / N≤0.95.

[0147] It can be understood that in order to optimize the energy density in the box 10, the length E of the battery cell in the battery 51 along the first direction O, and / or the width F in the second direction P, and / or the height G in the third direction Q can be limited; for example, the length E of the battery cell 520 along the first direction O is limited to E≥240mm, and the number of battery cells 520 arranged along the first direction O in the battery compartment 20 is between 16 and 22; and / or, the width of the battery cell 520 along the second direction P is limited to F≥60mm, and the number of battery cells 520 arranged along the second direction P in the battery compartment 20 is between 26 and 35; and / or, the height of the battery cell 520 along the third direction Q is limited to G≥180mm, and the number of battery cells 520 arranged along the third direction Q in the battery compartment 20 is between 6 and 9.

[0148] In addition, the proportion of the battery cells 520 arranged in the first direction O, the second direction P and the third direction Q to the battery compartment 20 in the first direction O, the second direction P and the third direction Q is limited. For example, in the first direction O, it is limited to 0.55≤(EI) / L≤0.95, in the second direction P, it is limited to 0.55≤(FJ) / M≤0.95, and in the third direction Q, it is limited to 0.55≤(GK) / N≤0.95.

[0149] Such a configuration can improve the energy density in the battery compartment 20 by limiting the external dimensions of the battery cells 520 and the number of battery cells 520 arranged in the first direction O, the second direction P and / or the third direction Q.

[0150] 3 , 4 , 6 and 7 , in some embodiments, 0.75≤(EI) / L≤0.88; and / or, 0.75≤(FJ) / M≤0.88; and / or, 0.6≤(GK) / N≤0.8.

[0151] With this configuration, the energy density in the battery compartment 20 is further improved by further limiting the size of the battery cells 520 in the battery compartment 20 .

[0152] For example, the volume ratio of the battery cell 520 in the battery compartment 20 can also be limited. For example, the volume of the battery compartment 20 can be set to U, and the volume of a single battery cell 520 can be set to V, and the total number of battery cells 520 in the battery compartment 20 is W; thus, the proportion of the volume of the battery compartment 20 of all battery cells 520 can be limited to 0.55≤VW / U≤0.95, preferably, 0.75≤VW / U≤0.85.

[0153] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3. A battery compartment door 21 for enclosing the battery compartment 20 is provided on one side of the box body 10 in the second direction P, and the other side of the box body 10 in the second direction P is a closed structure; an electrical compartment door 31 for enclosing the electrical compartment 30 is provided on one side of the box body 10 in the first direction O, and the other side of the box body 10 in the first direction O is a closed structure.

[0154] The battery compartment door 21 can be set on the box body 10; optionally, the battery compartment door 21 can be rotatably connected to the box body 10 through hinges, etc., and can be locked on the box body 10 through a door lock.

[0155] Optionally, the number of battery compartment doors 21 can be at least two, for example, there can be four battery compartment doors 21; at least two battery compartment doors 21 are arranged on the box body 10 along the first direction O and are used together to open or close the battery compartment 20 to perform operations and maintenance operations inside the battery compartment 20.

[0156] In this way, among the side surfaces of the box body 10, two intersecting side surfaces are provided with door structures, and the other two intersecting side surfaces are not provided with door structures. Therefore, the side surface of the box body 10 without door structures can be placed close to other boxes 10, thereby forming a grid-like arrangement of four boxes 10.

[0157] Please refer to Figure 9. In some embodiments, the electrical warehouse 30 includes at least one of a distribution box 32, a main control box (not shown in the figure), a fire control module 33, a fire pipeline (not shown in the figure), an explosion-proof fan (not shown in the figure), and a bus 34.

[0158] With this arrangement, at least one of the distribution box 32 , the master control box, the fire control module 33 , the fire pipeline, the explosion-proof fan, and the busbar 34 can be accommodated in the electrical compartment 30 , achieving a compact layout.

[0159] Please refer to FIG. 1 , FIG. 2 and FIG. 9 . In some embodiments, the fire control module 33 is disposed on the electrical compartment door 31 .

[0160] In this way, by arranging the fire control module 33 on the electrical compartment door 31 , the spatial arrangement within the electrical compartment 30 can be improved, and the compactness within the electrical compartment 30 is effectively increased.

[0161] Please refer to Figures 1 and 2. In some embodiments, the air outlet 80 of the explosion-proof fan is arranged on the electrical compartment door 31; in the second direction P, the air inlet 70 of the explosion-proof fan is arranged on the side of the battery compartment door 21 away from the electrical compartment door 31, and the air inlet 70 of the explosion-proof fan is located on the lower side of the third direction Q.

[0162] It can be understood that the third direction Q can be the direction of gravity in the working state. Therefore, the air inlet 70 of the explosion-proof fan is located on the lower side of the third direction Q, which means that the air inlet 70 of the explosion-proof fan is located in the lower area of ​​the electrical compartment door 31 in the direction of gravity.

[0163] Optionally, the air inlet 70 of the explosion-proof fan is closed by a baffle; the air outlet 80 of the explosion-proof fan is closed by a baffle.

[0164] A partition wall 90 is set between the electrical compartment 30 and the battery compartment 20, and there is a ventilation hole on the partition wall 90. The explosion-proof fan also includes an exhaust fan and a closed air duct arranged in the electrical compartment 30. The air duct is connected to the battery compartment 20 and the air outlet 80 through the ventilation hole, so that the thermal runaway gas of the battery 51 can be quickly discharged from the energy storage container 100.

[0165] In this arrangement, the air outlet 80 of the explosion-proof fan is set on the electrical compartment door 31, and the air inlet 70 of the explosion-proof fan is set on the battery compartment door 21, so that the air inlet 70 and the air outlet 80 of the explosion-proof fan can be separated.

[0166] For example, in some specific embodiments, the energy storage container 100 includes a box body 10, in which a battery compartment 20 and an electrical compartment 30 and a liquid cooling unit 40 are arranged on the same side of the battery compartment 20 along a first direction O. The liquid cooling unit 40 is sequentially distributed along a second direction P. The battery compartment 20 contains four battery clusters 50 sequentially arranged along the first direction O. Each battery cluster 50 includes eight batteries 51 arranged along a third direction Q. In addition, a main control box 60 is provided at the bottom of each battery cluster 50 in the third direction Q. Through the above arrangement, the energy storage container 100 The space utilization is more reasonable, and the staff can check the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 on the same end side of the energy storage container 100, which effectively improves the convenience of on-site maintenance. When installing and configuring the energy storage container 100, the layout of the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 on the same side can also improve the convenience of assembly. When multiple energy storage containers 100 are arranged, the battery compartments 20 of two adjacent energy storage containers 100 can also be placed against each other on one side, which can reduce the space occupied by the arrangement of multiple energy storage containers 100 and improve the energy storage density per unit area.

[0167] Referring to Figures 1 and 8 , in a second aspect, embodiments of the present application further provide an energy storage system 1000, comprising the aforementioned energy storage container 100. The energy storage system 1000 provided in embodiments of the present application, comprising the aforementioned energy storage container 100, has a high space utilization rate based on the high space utilization rate of the energy storage container 100, thereby improving energy storage density.

[0168] 1 and 8 , in some embodiments, two energy storage containers 100 are arranged along a first direction O to form a container group 1100 . The battery compartments 20 of the two energy storage containers 100 within the container group 1100 are adjacently located, and the battery compartment doors 21 of the two energy storage containers 100 within the container group 1100 are located on the same side.

[0169] It can be understood that the two energy storage containers 100 are arranged along the first direction O, that is, along the length direction of the box body 10 to form a row; wherein, the battery compartments 20 of the two energy storage containers 100 can be adjacent to each other, and at this time, the electrical compartments 30 of the two energy storage containers 100 in the container group 1100 are opposite to each other; that is, the box bodies 10 of the two energy storage containers 100 can be placed close to each other along the first direction O, and the two energy storage containers 100 are mirror-symmetrical, thereby, the battery compartments 20 of the two energy storage containers 100 can be adjacent to each other, and the electrical compartments 30 and the liquid cooling units 40 of the two energy storage containers 100 are respectively located at opposite ends in the first direction O.

[0170] Compared with the method of arranging two energy storage containers 100 at intervals, this arrangement enables the two energy storage containers 100 to be close to each other and arranged in a row due to the structural design of the electrical compartment 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 being located on the same end side of the battery compartment 20, thereby effectively reducing the total floor space occupied by the two energy storage containers 100, thereby improving the energy density per unit area. At the same time, since the electrical compartments 30 and the liquid cooling unit 40 of the two energy storage containers 100 are both located at the ends, maintenance operations will not be affected, and the convenience of on-site operations can be improved, that is, the battery compartments 20 of the two energy storage containers 100 only need to be operated on the same side of the box body 10.

[0171] Please refer to Figures 1 and 8. In some embodiments, there are two container groups 1100. The two container groups 1100 are arranged in sequence along the second direction P, and the two container groups 1100 are mirror-image distributed; wherein the second direction P is perpendicular to the first direction O, the first direction O is the length direction of the box body 10, and the second direction P is the width direction of the box body 10.

[0172] It can be understood that the width direction of the box body 10 of the above-mentioned energy storage container 100 can be parallel to the second direction P. At the same time, the length direction of the box body 10 of the energy storage container 100 can be parallel to the first direction O, and the height direction of the box body 10 of the energy storage container 100 can be parallel to the third direction Q. The two groups of container groups 1100 are arranged in sequence along the second direction P of the energy storage container 100, that is, the two groups of container groups 1100 are arranged along the width direction of the box body 10; at this time, the two groups of container groups 1100 are arranged in sequence along the second direction P of the energy storage container 100. A total of four energy storage containers 100 are arranged in a grid pattern. Two energy storage containers 100 in the same container group 1100 are placed close to each other along the first direction O, and the two energy storage containers 100 are mirror-symmetrical. The containers in the two container groups 1100 are placed back-to-back, that is, the two energy storage containers 100 of one container group 1100 and the two energy storage containers 100 of the other container group 1100 are placed close to each other back-to-back, and the two container groups 1100 are distributed in a mirror-image manner.

[0173] With this arrangement, the two container groups 1100 are arranged along the second direction P and in a mirror-image distribution. As a result, the four energy storage containers 100 can be arranged close together in a grid-like manner. Compared with the method of arranging the four energy storage containers 100 in an intermittent manner, the energy density per unit area can be further improved. Moreover, the two container groups 1100 are arranged in sequence, which can reduce the distance between the two container groups 1100, thereby reducing the maintenance distance of the two container groups 1100, thereby improving the convenience of on-site operations.

[0174] Referring to FIG. 1 and FIG. 8 , in some embodiments, the electrical compartments 30 of two energy storage containers 100 arranged in the second direction P are adjacent to each other.

[0175] With this arrangement, the electrical compartments 30 of the two energy storage containers 100 can be simultaneously observed and maintained on the same side in the second direction P, which effectively improves the convenience of maintenance.

[0176] The above are only preferred embodiments of the present application and are not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the scope of protection of the present application.
