Through set up branch import 300 on temperature regulation board 10, can mend auxiliary fluid in battery package 2's relevant position department to mix with the fluid that adjusts the temperature ability and descend after flowing into temperature regulation board 10 certain distance from main import 100, make the downstream of battery package 2 correspond the region and can be adjusted the temperature under auxiliary fluid's effect, thereby can balance the temperature in each region of battery package 2, reduce the temperature difference of battery package 2. Especially for the battery package 2 that has long module or overlength module, can carry out the local temperature regulation to the middle zone of this battery package 2 through temperature regulating plate 10, not only can promote the efficiency that adjusts the temperature, can make moreover adjust the temperature more accurate.
In a specific implementation, as shown in fig. 1, the temperature-adjusting plate 10 is disposed at the outer side of the battery pack 2, and the main inlet 100 and the main outlet 200 may be respectively located at two ends of the battery pack 2, so as to facilitate the fluid to enter the temperature-adjusting plate 10. The main inlet 100 and the main outlet 200 may communicate with each other through a passage (not shown) to which each of the sub-inlets 300 communicates, so that the auxiliary fluid can be mixed with the upstream fluid after entering the inside of the temperature-adjusting plate 10 through the sub-inlet 300, and the auxiliary fluid can adjust the temperature of the fluid, so that the temperature of the mixed fluid of the auxiliary fluid and the fluid can be higher or lower than the temperature of the fluid flowing to the sub-inlet 300 to adjust the temperature of the battery pack 2.

As shown in fig. 1, the opening directions of the different branch inlets 300 are equal to the flow direction of the fluid. In other embodiments, the included angles between the opening directions of the different sub-inlets 300 and the flowing direction of the fluid may also be different, for example, according to the temperature adjustment requirements of different regions of the battery pack 2, the auxiliary fluid in the sub-inlet 300 at the corresponding position may have different disturbance requirements and other requirements, and thus different included angles may be selected. In addition, branch mouthful 300 can set up correspondingly according to the demand that adjusts the temperature in each region of battery package 2, for example can evenly arrange along the length direction of battery package 2, also can arrange according to the heating up or the cooling degree in the different regions of battery package 2.
As shown in fig. 3, the battery pack 2 has a plurality of battery modules 210; the temperature control plate 10 has a plurality of temperature control units corresponding to at least one battery module 210.

Further, as shown in fig. 3, the battery pack 2 has two battery modules 210 arranged in parallel, and the primary inlet 100 and the primary outlet 200 are disposed on the same side of the battery pack 2; the temperature control plate 10 has a temperature control unit that is disposed at the outer sides of the two battery modules 210 at the same time and controls the temperature of the two battery modules 210. Along the flowing direction of the fluid, four sub-inlets 300 are sequentially formed on the side wall of the temperature adjusting unit, wherein two sub-inlets 300 are correspondingly formed on each battery module 210. Fig. 3 shows a schematic structural diagram of regulating the temperature of two battery modules 210 by using one temperature regulating unit, and in other embodiments, two temperature regulating units may be further provided, and the two temperature regulating units are arranged in parallel and are communicated with each other, and respectively regulate the temperature of the corresponding battery modules 210.
As shown in fig. 1, for example, after the battery pack 2 is cooled, the main inlet 100 flows a low-temperature cooling liquid to cool the battery, the temperature of the cooling liquid rises, the cooling liquid flowing through the first sub-inlet 310 is mixed with the low-temperature cooling liquid flowing through the first sub-inlet 310 to reduce the temperature of the cooling liquid, and the flow rate of the two cooling liquids after being merged can be increased, which can also disturb the flow field, thereby enhancing the heat exchange between the cooling liquid and the liquid cooling plate, thereby enhancing the heat dissipation of the battery after the first sub-inlet 310, and the low-temperature cooling liquid entering the liquid cooling plate at the first sub-inlet 310 can counteract the heat dissipation capacity reduction caused by the temperature rise of the upstream cooling liquid, and improve the temperature difference between the upstream and the downstream. By analogy, each branch inlet 300 is supplemented with proper low-temperature cooling liquid to offset the heat dissipation weakening caused by the temperature rise of the cooling liquid, so that the heat dissipation balance among the long module batteries can be controlled, and the temperature of the batteries is controlled to be basically consistent.
An embodiment of the present invention also provides a temperature-adjusting device 1, as shown in fig. 4 and 5, the temperature-adjusting device 1 has the temperature-adjusting plate 10 as described above, and flows a fluid and an auxiliary fluid through the temperature-adjusting plate 10 to adjust the temperature of the battery pack 2.

Accordingly, a detection unit may be further disposed between the second sub-inlet 320 and the main outlet 200, and the temperature of the region of the battery pack 2 between the second sub-inlet 320 and the main outlet 200 is detected and fed back to the control unit, and the control unit controls the inlet of the auxiliary fluid in the first sub-inlet 310 and/or the second sub-inlet 320 according to the fed-back temperature signal.

When the detector detects that the temperature of the region of the battery pack 2 between the second sub-inlet port 320 and the main outlet port 200 needs to be raised or lowered, the control unit may control the inlet temperature and the flow rate of the auxiliary fluid in the upstream first and second sub-inlet ports 310 and 320; it is also possible to control only the entry temperature and flow rate of the secondary fluid in the second sub-inlet 320 closest to this region.
Further, as described above, the control unit may include a controller 20, a flow regulator, and a temperature regulator, wherein the controller 20 may be the battery management system BMS, and the main inlet 100 and each of the sub-inlets 300 may be configured with the flow regulator and the temperature regulator, so that for the above-described step S220, the flow rate and the temperature of the fluid corresponding to the main inlet 100 and the flow rate and the temperature of the auxiliary fluid corresponding to the sub-inlet 300 may be controlled by controlling the respective flow regulators and temperature regulators.
The flow regulator may be a water pump 30 or a flow valve. When the device is operated, the BMS detects that the temperature of the battery in the region is higher/lower, the rotating speed of the water pump 30 at the inlet of the upstream of the battery can be adjusted according to the higher temperature, and the flow of the cooling liquid is increased/reduced, so that the cooling of the battery at the downstream is enhanced/weakened. Or, when the device is operated, the BMS detects that the temperature of the battery in the red frame is higher/lower, and then the BMS can adjust the opening of an electric valve at the upstream inlet of the battery according to the higher/lower temperature degree, reduce/increase the opening of the valve and increase/reduce the flow of the cooling liquid so as to strengthen/weaken the cooling of the battery at the downstream.
