The battery pack 1000 according to another aspect of the present invention includes the battery module 100 and the housing 200 described in the above embodiments.

As shown in fig. 1 to 5, a bottom wall of the housing 200 is provided with a housing inlet 201, and a side wall of the housing 200 is provided with a housing outlet 202. I.e., the refrigerant gas is adapted to flow into the battery pack 1000 from the housing inlet 201 and finally flow out of the battery pack 1000 from the housing outlet 202, so as to control the flow direction of the refrigerant gas.

Wherein, casing 200 includes casing and lower casing, go up the casing and all can be formed by panel beating stamping process with lower casing, so that casing 200's overall structure intensity is bigger, and casing air intake 201 forms on the diapire of casing down, casing air outlet 202 forms on the lateral wall of casing down, and, go up the casing and seal through the flange face with lower casing, in order to guarantee casing 200's whole leakproofness, thereby guaranteed except that casing air intake 201 and casing air outlet 202, casing 200 no position of leaking out again.

Further, the battery module 100 is disposed in the case 200 and fixed on the bottom wall of the lower case, so that the case 200 can effectively protect the battery module 100. The bottom of battery module 100 is formed with battery module air intake 101 to casing air intake 201 just hugs closely the setting and communicates each other with battery module air intake 101, and wherein, casing air intake 201 is the position that refrigerant gas got into in casing 200 from the casing 200 is outer, and battery module air intake 101 is the position that refrigerant gas that flows into in the casing 200 flowed into in battery module 100 from battery module 100 outflow. That is to say, because casing air intake 201 and battery module air intake 101 just to hugging closely the setting and communicate each other, the two are direct intercommunication promptly to still be provided with sealing washer 8 between casing air intake 201 and the battery module air intake 101, in order to realize the sealed intercommunication between the two.

From this, can make battery module 100 more convenient with the installation of casing 200 to need not to set up solitary wind-guiding passageway between casing air intake 201 and battery module air intake 101, just also need not to consider the sealed in wind channel, the effectual wind channel structure that has reduced in the battery package 1000 promptly makes the overall structure of battery package 1000 simpler, and the cost is lower.

The battery module 100 has battery module outlets 102 formed at two lateral ends thereof, and the battery module outlets 102 are communicated with the housing outlet 202. That is, the cooling gas flowing in from the battery module air inlet 101 flows through the battery module 100, cools the battery module 100, flows out from the battery module air outlets 102 at the two lateral ends of the battery module 100, then flows through other components in the housing 200, and finally flows out of the battery pack 1000 from the housing air outlet 202 to form a complete cooling cycle, thereby achieving the overall effective cooling of the battery module 100 and the battery pack 1000, and ensuring the overall safety of the battery pack 1000.

Wherein, the bottom system cold gas from battery package 1000 is adopted to go out cryogenic gas from the lateral part of battery package 1000, in order to cooperate battery module 100 to go out cryogenic gas's form from the bottom system cold gas, and from battery module 100's lateral part, can realize the better refrigeration effect to battery module 100, and can make cryogenic gas can flow through each position in battery package 1000, in order to further guarantee heat transfer refrigeration effect.

Specifically, the cooling method of the entire battery pack 1000 is: the cooling gas directly enters the Battery module 100 through the Battery module air inlet 101 from the housing air inlet 201 at the bottom of the Battery pack 1000, and then the cooling gas is discharged into the Battery pack 1000 from the Battery module air outlet 102 after cooling the Battery module 100, and then the cooling gas flows through other areas in the Battery pack 1000 and cools the BDU300(Battery Disconnect Unit) and the BMS400(Battery management system) in the Battery pack 1000, and finally the cooling gas is discharged out of the Battery pack 1000 from the housing 200 to complete the cooling cycle.

In connection with the exemplary embodiments shown in fig. 1 to 5, the housing inlet 201 is designed as a blowing inlet. That is, the battery pack 1000 is cooled by blowing air, i.e., cooling air is blown into the battery pack 1000 from the housing air inlet 201 instead of being sucked into the battery pack 1000, for example, a cooling fan may be used to communicate with the housing air inlet 201 to deliver the cooling air to the interior of the battery pack 1000. Therefore, the airflow of the cooling gas flowing through the inside of the battery pack 1000 can be stronger, so that the refrigeration effect is better, and the air duct structure arranged inside the battery pack 1000 can be further avoided.

The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and should not be taken as limiting the invention, and any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present invention should be included in the protection scope of the present invention.
