Detailed Description
Example embodiments will now be described more fully with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the exemplary embodiments can be embodied in many forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein; rather, these embodiments are provided so that this disclosure will be thorough and complete, and will fully convey the concept of the example embodiments to those skilled in the art. The same reference numerals in the drawings denote the same or similar structures, and thus detailed descriptions thereof will be omitted.
Because of the strong timeliness and space properties of energy sources required by people, in order to reasonably utilize the energy sources and improve the utilization rate of the energy, one energy form needs to be stored by one medium or equipment and then is converted into another energy form, and then is released in a specific energy form based on future application requirements. As is well known, to achieve the great goal of carbon neutralization, green energy is currently mainly used to replace fossil energy so as to achieve the purpose of generating green electric energy.
The existing green energy mainly comprises light energy, wind energy, water potential and the like, and the problems of strong intermittence and large fluctuation of the light energy, the wind energy and the like generally exist, so that the voltage of a green power grid is unstable (insufficient electricity is used in a peak and too much electricity is used in a valley), and the unstable voltage can cause damage to the electric power.
To solve the problem of insufficient power demand or insufficient power grid acceptance, an energy storage device must be relied on. The energy storage device converts the electric energy into other forms of energy through physical or chemical means to store the energy, the energy stored by the energy storage device is converted into the electric energy to be released when needed, in short, the energy storage device is similar to a large-scale 'charge pal', when the light energy and the wind energy are sufficient, the electric energy is stored, and the stored electric energy is released when needed.
The existing energy storage (i.e. energy storage) application scene is wider, including aspects such as power generation side energy storage, electric network side energy storage, renewable energy grid-connected energy storage, user side energy storage and the like, the types of corresponding energy storage devices include:
(1) The large energy storage container applied to the energy storage scene at the power grid side can be used as a high-quality active and reactive power regulation power supply in the power grid, so that the load matching of electric energy in time and space is realized, the renewable energy consumption capability is enhanced, and the large energy storage container has great significance in the aspects of standby of a power grid system, relieving peak load power supply pressure and peak regulation and frequency modulation;
(2) The main operation modes of the small and medium-sized energy storage electric cabinet applied to the industrial and commercial energy storage scenes (banks, shops and the like) at the user side and the household small-sized energy storage box applied to the household energy storage scene at the user side are peak clipping and valley filling. Because of the large price difference of the electricity charge at the peak-valley position according to the electricity consumption requirement, after the energy storage equipment is arranged by a user, in order to reduce the cost, the energy storage cabinet/box is charged usually in the electricity price valley period; and in the peak period of electricity price, the electricity in the energy storage equipment is released for use, so that the purpose of saving electricity charge is achieved. In addition, in remote areas and areas with high occurrence of natural disasters such as earthquake, hurricane and the like, the household energy storage device is equivalent to the fact that a user provides a standby power supply for the user and the power grid, and inconvenience caused by frequent power failure due to disasters or other reasons is avoided.
Taking a household energy storage scenario in a user side energy storage as an example, fig. 1 shows a household energy storage system, where the household energy storage system includes an energy storage device 100 and an electric energy conversion device 200 (such as a photovoltaic panel), and a user load 300 (such as a street lamp, a household appliance, etc.), and the energy storage device 100 is a small energy storage box, and may be installed on an outdoor wall by a wall hanging manner. Specifically, the power conversion device 200 may convert solar energy into electric energy during the low electricity price period, and store the electric energy by the energy storage device 100, and then supply the electric energy to the consumer load 300 for use during the peak electricity price period, or supply the electric energy to the consumer load 300 for use during the power outage/power failure period of the power grid.
In combination with the above-mentioned case of performing energy storage by physical or electrochemical means, taking electrochemical energy storage as an example, the energy storage device 100 includes at least one group of chemical batteries, and chemical elements in the chemical batteries are used as an energy storage medium, so as to implement a charging and discharging process through chemical reaction or change of the energy storage medium. In short, the electric energy generated by light energy and wind energy is stored in at least one group of chemical batteries through chemical reaction or change of the energy storage medium, and when the use of external electric energy reaches a peak, the electric quantity stored in at least one group of chemical batteries is released for use through the chemical reaction or change of the energy storage medium, or is transferred to a place where the electric quantity is short for use.
The present embodiment provides an energy storage device 100, and the energy storage device 100 may be, but is not limited to, a battery cell (secondary battery), a battery module composed of battery cells, a battery pack, a battery system, or the like.

In this way, the electrode post 321 is fixed on the cover plate 31 by the cooperation of the base 3212 and the fixing piece 323, and meanwhile, the sealing effect of the sealing ring 322 on the gap between the base 3212 and the cover plate 31 is ensured by the extrusion of the base 3212 and the cover plate 31 to the sealing ring 322.
The electrode assembly 20 includes a positive plate, a negative plate, and a separator, where the separator is located between the positive plate and the negative plate, and the ends of the positive plate and the negative plate have tabs to form positive tabs and negative tabs of the energy storage device 100.

In the related art, the high temperature generated when the electrode post 321 is welded to the metal adapter easily causes the shrinkage deformation of the portion of the fixing piece 323 filled in the groove 3211 on the electrode post 321, resulting in the electrode post 321 having a movable space toward the electrode assembly 20; in addition, when the plurality of energy storage devices 100 are connected in series and parallel by using aluminum bars, high temperature is generated when the aluminum bars are welded to the electrode posts 321 of the energy storage devices 100, so that the fixing members 323 are easily deformed by shrinkage of the portions of the grooves 3211 filled in the electrode posts 321, and the electrode posts 321 have a movable space toward the electrode assembly 20.

In the embodiment of the application, the fixing and limiting of the electrode post 321 on the cover plate 31 are realized through the base 3212 and the fixing piece 323 at the first end of the electrode post 321, and meanwhile, the sealing is realized through the extrusion of the base 3212 and the cover plate 31 to the sealing ring 322; in the process of sealing the sealing ring 322, as the part of the limiting piece 33 is positioned in the groove 3211 of the electrode post 321 and is embedded into the part of the fixing piece 323 filled in the groove 3211, the part of the fixing piece 323 filled in the groove 3211 can be separated in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31 through the limiting piece 33, so that the contraction deformation of the part of the fixing piece 323 only positioned between the limiting piece 33 and the groove wall of the groove 3211 opposite to the base 3212 can affect the movable space of the electrode post 321 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31, the movable space of the electrode post 321 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31 is reduced, the extrusion effect of the base 3212 of the electrode post 321 and the cover plate 31 on the sealing ring 322 is ensured, and the sealing effect of the sealing ring 322 is ensured.
As shown in fig. 3 and 4, the end cap unit 30 further includes an insulating member 34, the insulating member 34 is disposed on a side of the cover plate 31 facing away from the fixing member 323 (i.e., for the energy storage device 100, the insulating member 34 is disposed on a side of the cover plate 31 facing toward the electrode assembly 20), the electrode post 321 penetrates through the insulating member 34, and then sequentially penetrates through the sealing ring 322 and the mounting hole 311 on the cover plate 31 to be fixedly connected with the fixing member 323, and the base 3212 of the electrode post 321 is limited on a side of the insulating member 34 facing away from the cover plate 31.
Alternatively, the front projection of the fixing member 323 on the plane of the cover plate 31 covers the front projection of the limiting member 33 on the plane of the cover plate 31, that is, as shown in fig. 4, the fixing member 323 completely covers the limiting member 33. In this way, the fixing member 323 can compress the limiting member 33, so as to ensure the stability of fixing the limiting member 33 on the cover plate 31, and simultaneously ensure the aesthetic property of the end cap unit 30.
In this embodiment, as shown in fig. 5, the mounting hole 311 on the cover plate 31 may be a circular through hole, where the shaft of the electrode post 321 (i.e. the portion excluding the base 3212) has a cylindrical structure; of course, the mounting hole 311 on the cover plate 31 may be a polygonal through hole (such as a square through hole), and the shaft of the electrode post 321 is in a polygonal prism structure.
The groove 3211 provided in the side wall of the electrode post 321 may be an annular groove wound around the electrode post 321 in one turn in the circumferential direction as shown in fig. 6, or may be a plurality of circular arc grooves distributed at intervals in the circumferential direction of the electrode post 321, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
In this embodiment, the limiting member 33 includes a limiting portion 331 located in the groove 3211 and a connecting portion 332 connected to the cover plate 31, when the limiting portion 331 extends into the groove 3211 to limit the electrode post 321, the limiting portion 331 may not contact with the groove wall or the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211, or may contact with the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211 or the groove wall opposite to the base 3212.
For example, as shown in fig. 4, a certain gap exists between the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 and the groove wall and groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211; or as shown in fig. 7 and 8, the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 abuts against the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211; as shown in fig. 9 and 10, the stopper 331 of the stopper 33 abuts against the groove wall of the groove 3211 away from the base 3212.
It should be noted that, when the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 is not in contact with the groove wall or the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211, the limiting member 33 may be a structural member made of a material with a certain rigidity, such as a metal material, so as to avoid the limiting effect of the limiting member 33 on the electrode post 321 after the limiting portion 331 is bent and deformed due to stress when the limiting portion 331 limits the electrode post 321.
When the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 contacts with the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211 or the groove wall facing away from the base 3212, in order to avoid the limiting member 33 from electrically conducting the cover plate 31 and the electrode post 321, one of the limiting portion 331 and/or the connecting portion 332 is of an insulating structure. At this time, the stopper 33 may include a body structure made of a material having a certain rigidity such as a metal material, and an insulating layer coated on a surface of the body structure to form the stopper 331 and/or the connecting portion 332 of the insulating structure through the insulating layer. Of course, the stopper 33 may be directly made of an insulating material having a certain rigidity, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
In view of the above, as shown in fig. 4, the two groove walls of the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 opposite to the groove 3211 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31 are spaced, and at this time, when the electrode post 321 and the metal adaptor are welded, only the portion of the fixing member 323 located between the limiting member 33 and the groove wall of the groove 3211 facing away from the base 3212 is deformed by shrinkage, which affects the movable space of the electrode post 321 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31. In this way, after the electrode post 321 is welded with the metal adaptor, the influence on the movable space of the electrode post 321 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31 can be reduced, so that the extrusion effect of the base 3212 of the electrode post 321 and the cover plate 31 on the sealing ring 322 is ensured, and the sealing effect of the sealing ring 322 is ensured.
As shown in fig. 7 and 8, the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 abuts against the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211, and at this time, the area of the limiting portion 331 located in the groove 3211 can be increased, so that the limiting area of the limiting portion 331 to the electrode post 321, that is, the effective supporting area of the limiting member 33 to the electrode post 321 is increased, and the limiting effect on the electrode post 321 is improved.
In order to avoid the spacing portion 331 from forming a partition between the portions of the fixing member 323 filled in the groove 3211 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31 when the spacing portion 331 of the spacing member 33 abuts against the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211, the spacing portion 331 of the spacing member 33 may have a notch 333 penetrating in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31, as shown in fig. 8. In this way, through the arrangement of the notch 333, under the condition that the limiting part 331 is abutted against the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211, the space of the groove 3211 at two sides of the limiting part 33 is communicated in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31, so that the structural integrity of the part, filled in the groove 3211, of the fixing part 323 is realized, the possibility that the part, filled in the groove 3211, of the fixing part 323 is broken by taking the plane of the limiting part 33 as a fracture surface is avoided, and the stability of fixing the electrode post 321 on the cover plate 31 is improved.
The notch 333 provided in the limiting portion 331 may be a through hole penetrating the limiting portion 331, or may be a notch 333 located at an edge, as long as the groove 3211 can be communicated with the spaces on both sides of the limiting member 33 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application.
As shown in fig. 9 and 10, a portion of the stopper 33 extending into the groove 3211 abuts against a groove wall of the groove 3211 facing away from the base 3212 in the thickness direction of the cover 31, and at this time, when the electrode post 321 and the metal adaptor are welded, a portion of the fixing member 323 filled in the groove 3211 is shrunk and deformed, but due to the abutting of the stopper 33 and the groove wall of the groove 3211 facing away from the base 3212, a movable space is not formed in the thickness direction of the cover 31 by the electrode post 321. In this way, after the electrode post 321 is welded with the metal adaptor, the situation that a movable space exists in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31 for the electrode post 321 can be avoided, so that the base 3212 of the electrode post 321 and the cover plate 31 squeeze the sealing ring 322, and the sealing effect of the sealing ring 322 is ensured.
In order to avoid the spacing portion 331 from forming a partition to the portion of the fixing member 323 filled in the groove 3211 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31 when the spacing portion 331 of the spacing member 33 abuts against the groove wall of the groove 3211 away from the base 3212, the spacing portion 331 of the spacing member 33 may have a notch 333 penetrating along the thickness direction of the cover plate 31. The notch 333 provided on the limiting portion 331 may refer to the above-mentioned case that the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 abuts against the groove bottom 3213 of the groove 3211, which is not described in detail in this embodiment.
In this embodiment, since the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 needs to extend into the groove 3211 on the electrode post 321, when the end cap unit 30 is assembled, the second end of the electrode post 321 may sequentially pass through the sealing ring 322 and the mounting hole 311, and then the limiting member 33 is disposed, so that the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 is located in the groove 3211.
In the present embodiment, the number of the stoppers 33 may be one or a plurality. In the case where the end cap unit 30 includes a plurality of stoppers 33, the plurality of stoppers 33 are distributed at the periphery of the mounting hole 311 and are uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the mounting hole 311. In this way, the portions of the plurality of uniformly distributed limiting members 33 extending into the grooves 3211 can ensure stable limiting of the electrode columns 321 in the thickness direction of the cover plate 31, and avoid the deflection of the electrode columns 321.
The limiting member 33 may have a strip structure, where one end or one side of the limiting member 33 is located in the groove 3211, and limits the electrode post 321 in the thickness direction of the cover 31; alternatively, as shown in fig. 5, the stopper 33 has a sheet-like structure, and at this time, a part of the edge portion of the stopper 33 is positioned in the groove 3211, and the electrode post 321 is limited in the thickness direction of the cap plate 31.
For the spacing piece 33 with the strip structure, optionally, the mounting hole 311 is a polygonal through hole, the groove 3211 on the electrode post 321 is a polygonal annular groove, at this time, the length direction of the spacing piece 33 is perpendicular to one side of the mounting hole 311, and one end of the spacing piece 33 stretches into the groove 3211 to limit the electrode post 321, so that the connection area of the spacing piece 33 and the cover plate 31 can be increased, the stability of the connection of the spacing piece 33 on the cover plate 31 is improved, and then the connection area of the spacing piece 33 on the cover plate 31 is larger than the limit area of the electrode post 321, so that the limit effect of the spacing piece 33 on the electrode post 321 can be effectively ensured.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, for the limiting member 33 with a sheet structure, the mounting hole 311 is a circular through hole, the groove 3211 on the electrode post 321 is a circular groove, and the edge of the limiting member 33 facing the electrode post 321 is a circular arc edge. The limiting area of the limiting part 331 to the electrode post 321 can be increased, namely the effective supporting area of the limiting piece 33 to the electrode post 321 is increased, so that the limiting effect to the electrode post 321 is improved.
Optionally, the central angle of the circular arc edge on the limiting part 331 is greater than or equal to 90 degrees and less than 180 degrees. For example, the central angle of the circular arc edge on the limiting portion 331 is 90 degrees, 120 degrees, 150 degrees, 175 degrees, specifically, may be set according to the number of limiting members 33 set on the outer surface of the cover plate 31, which is not limited in the embodiment of the present application. As an example, as shown in fig. 5, the outer surface of the cap plate 31 is provided with two stoppers 33 uniformly distributed along the circumferential direction of the mounting hole 311, and the stopper 331 of each stopper 33 has an arc edge toward the edge of the electrode post 321, and the central angle of the arc edge is 90 degrees.
In the present embodiment, the limiting member 33 may be directly fixedly connected to the outer surface of the cover plate 31, and may, of course, be slidably connected to the outer surface of the cover plate 31.
For the condition that the limiting piece 33 is fixedly connected with the cover plate 31, in order to ensure that the limiting part 331 of the limiting piece 33 can extend into the groove 3211 on the electrode post 321, the limiting piece 33 can only pass through the mounting hole 311 on the cover plate 31 after the electrode post 321 and at least part of the groove 3211 on the electrode post 321 protrudes out of the surface of the cover plate 31, which is opposite to the base plate 3212, and then extend into the groove 3211 and fixedly connected with the cover plate 31, so that the stability of the limiting piece 33 can be ensured.
For the slidable connection between the limiting member 33 and the cover plate 31, the limiting member 33 may be disposed on the outer surface of the cover plate 31 in advance, and the limiting member 33 is slid to avoid the mounting hole 311, after the electrode post 321 passes through the mounting hole 311 on the cover plate 31, and at least part of the groove 3211 on the electrode post 321 protrudes out of the surface of the cover plate 31 opposite to the base 3212, the limiting member 33 is slid to make the limiting portion 331 of the limiting member 33 extend into the groove 3211, so that the process of fixing the limiting member 33 in the process of assembling the end cover unit 30 is avoided, and thus the assembly efficiency of the end cover unit 30 is improved.
For the fixed connection between the limiting member 33 and the cover plate 31, the limiting member 33 may be fixedly connected with the cover plate 31 by welding, bonding, or the like, and for the slidable connection between the limiting member 33 and the cover plate 31, as shown in fig. 11, a slide way 313 (such as a chute) is disposed on the outer surface of the cover plate 31, and the limiting member 33 is slidably limited on the slide way 313.
In some embodiments, in the case where the limiting member 33 is fixedly connected to the cover plate 31, as shown in fig. 5, a surface of the cover plate 31 facing away from the base 3212 is provided with a convex ring 312 surrounding the mounting hole 311, the limiting member 33 is located in an area surrounded by the convex ring 312, and the limiting member 33 abuts against an inner ring surface of the convex ring 312. Thus, through the arrangement of the convex ring 312, the positioning of the limiting piece 33 can be realized under the limiting action of the inner annular surface of the convex ring 312, thereby being convenient for improving the assembly efficiency of the limiting piece 33.
Alternatively, as shown in fig. 5, the mounting hole 311 is a circular through hole, the collar 312 is a rectangular ring, and a stopper 33 is provided inside a corner on at least one diagonal of the collar 312. In this way, the limiting piece 33 is arranged on the inner sides of the two corners on the diagonal line of the convex ring 312, so that the fixing area of the limiting piece 33 on the cover plate 31 is conveniently increased, and the connection strength of the limiting piece 33 and the cover plate 31 is improved; meanwhile, since the limiting piece 33 and the cover plate 31 can have larger fixing area, when the limiting piece 33 and the cover plate 31 are fixed in a welding mode, the edge far away from the mounting hole 311 can be welded, so that the influence of high temperature generated during welding on the sealing ring 322 on the inner side of the cover plate 31 is avoided. For example, as shown in fig. 5, stoppers 33 may be provided respectively inside two corners on one diagonal line of the convex ring 312.
In other embodiments, for the case that the limiting member 33 is slidably connected to the outer surface of the cover plate 31, the cover plate 31 has a rectangular structure, and at this time, as shown in fig. 11, the orthographic projection of the limiting member 33 on the cover plate 31 is located between the center of the mounting hole 311 and the wide side of the cover plate 31, and the sliding direction of the limiting member 33 is parallel to the long side of the cover plate 31; alternatively, the orthographic projection of the limiting piece 33 on the cover plate 31 is located between the center of the mounting hole 311 and the long side of the cover plate 31, and the sliding direction of the limiting piece 33 is parallel to the wide side of the cover plate 31.
In this way, for the cover plate 31 with a rectangular structure, the position and the sliding direction of the limiting piece 33 are set, so that the distance between the limiting piece 33 and the mounting hole 311 is shortened, the distance that the limiting piece 33 needs to slide when the limiting piece 33 stretches into the groove 3211 of the electrode post 321 is shortened, and the assembly efficiency of the end cover unit 30 is improved; in addition, in combination with the above-described case where the fixing member 323 is projected forward on the cover plate 31 to cover the forward projection of the stopper 33 on the cover plate 31, the slideway 313 corresponding to the stopper 33 can be effectively covered by the fixing member 323, thereby ensuring the aesthetic degree of the end cap unit 30.
