Based on the embodiments in the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by a person skilled in the art without creative efforts belong to the protection scope of the present invention.
In the description of the present invention, it is to be understood that when an element is referred to as being "connected" to another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or intervening elements may also be present. When a component is referred to as being "disposed on" another component, it can be directly on the other component or intervening components may also be present.
Furthermore, the terms "long", "short", "inner", "outer", and the like indicate orientations or positional relationships based on the orientations or positional relationships illustrated in the drawings, and are only for convenience of describing the present invention, but do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have the specific orientation, operate in the specific orientation configuration, and thus, should not be construed as limiting the present invention.
The technical solution of the present invention is further explained by the following embodiments with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Referring to fig. 1 to fig. 3, the embodiment provides a power battery module, which includes an enclosure frame 1 enclosed by end plates and side plates, a plurality of battery cells 2 located in the enclosure frame 1, and a top cover assembly 3 for covering an opening of the enclosure frame 1.
The top cover assembly 3 is used to cover the explosion-proof valve 201 on the top surface of the electric core 2, so as to prevent the air flow and electrolyte in the electric core 2 from involving other electric cores when being sprayed outwards.
Specifically, the top cover assembly 3 is sequentially provided with an upper cover plate 301, a fire extinguishing layer 302 and a heat insulation plate 303 towards the direction close to the explosion-proof valve 201; the heat insulation plate 303 is provided with a through hole 3031 at a position corresponding to the explosion-proof valve 201.
When the electric core 2 is in thermal runaway, the airflow and the electrolyte burst through the explosion-proof valve 201 of the thermal runaway electric core and are sprayed outwards, and then the airflow and the electrolyte directly spray to the fire extinguishing layer 302 above the through hole 3031 through the through hole 3031, on one hand, if the flame is carried by the externally sprayed airflow and the electrolyte, the fire extinguishing layer 302 can extinguish the flame, and further, the explosion accident caused by the spread of fire is avoided; on the other hand, since the thermal insulation plate 303 has good thermal insulation performance, the heat sprayed from the thermal runaway cell 2 is confined in the through hole 3031, and is difficult to be transmitted to another adjacent cell 2 in a large amount, thereby ensuring the electrical safety of the other adjacent cell 2. Therefore, the power battery module that this embodiment provided can effectively solve traditional power battery module upper cover and be destroyed by the air current and the electrolyte that electric core 2 erupted upwards easily, causes the impaired problem of other adjacent electric cores 2, and the security performance preferred.
Optionally, the fire extinguishing layer 302 includes a fire extinguishing material and a coating film that coats the fire extinguishing material. Illustratively, the fire extinguishing material may be carbon dioxide powder, mica powder, talc powder or the like, or the fire extinguishing material may further include, but is not limited to, heptafluoropropane, perfluoropolyether, perfluorohexanone, aerosol, halothane (halon), hydrofluorocarbon compound or perfluoro-based compound, and may be a composite material, at least one material, and the hydrofluorocarbon compound includes, but is not limited to, R134A (alternative refrigerant to R12), R125, R32, R407C, R410A (alternative refrigerant to R22), R152 and the like; perfluoro-type compounds include, but are not limited to, perfluorohexanone, perfluoropolyether.
The coating film is used for realizing plate-shaped shaping of the fire extinguishing material, and when encountering flame or reaching a threshold value (for example, 100 ℃), the coating film is burnt, and then the fire extinguishing material falls into the through hole 3031 for automatic fire extinguishing. In this embodiment, the melting point of the upper cover plate is higher than that of the coating film, so that the coating film can be burnt first if a fire occurs, and the fire extinguishing material falls to extinguish flame so as to prevent the upper cover plate from being burnt. Further, the upper cover plate 301 is made of a refractory material having a high melting point, such as steel, iron plate, or aluminum alloy, and thus the upper cover plate 301 cannot be burnt through even if high-temperature flames are carried by the externally-sprayed air flow and the electrolyte.
Optionally, the heat insulation plate 303 is made of materials with better heat insulation performance, such as asbestos, mica, or silica gel. When the electric core 2 out of control thermally erupts gas and electrolyte, the thermal insulation plate 303 is high temperature resistant, and can seal heat in the through hole 3031, so that a large amount of heat is prevented from being conducted to the adjacent electric core 2, and the situation that the series of electric cores 2 out of control is caused is avoided.
The fire extinguishing layer 302 covers an opening of one end of the through hole 3031 far away from the explosion-proof valve 201, so that the through hole 3031 forms a containing groove with an opening facing the explosion-proof valve 201, and the externally sprayed air flow and electrolyte can be contained in the containing groove.
Further, one side of the fire extinguishing layer 302 close to the through hole 3031 is recessed in a direction far away from the through hole 3031, so that the volume of the accommodating groove is increased.
In this embodiment, a confining boss 3032 is fixedly arranged on one side of the thermal insulation board 303 close to the electric core 2, and the confining boss 3032 surrounds and forms a flow guide channel communicated with the through hole 3031. The side, close to the electric core 2, of the enclosing boss 3032 abuts against the electric core 2, and the explosion-proof valve 201 is enclosed in the flow guide channel. Further, a wiring harness isolation plate 4 is arranged between the top cover assembly 3 and the battery core 2. A yielding hole is formed in the position, corresponding to the explosion-proof valve 201 of the battery cell 2, of the wire harness isolation plate 4, and the enclosing boss 3032 extends into the yielding hole. The diversion channel can form diversion action on the externally sprayed airflow and electrolyte when the electric core 2 is out of control due to heat, so that the airflow carrying flame and the electrolyte are sprayed upwards and do not leak to the side edge, and other adjacent electric cores are prevented from being damaged.
Optionally, the enclosing boss 3032 and the heat insulation plate 303 are of an integrally formed structure, so that assembly is not required, and production is facilitated.
Alternatively, the cap assembly 3 may be a composite structure. Of course, it may be a unitary structure, for example, the heat insulation board 303 and the fire extinguishing layer 302 are both attached to the upper cover plate 301.
The power battery module that this embodiment provided possesses following advantage:
gas and electrolyte sprayed out when the battery cell 2 is out of control can be guided into a flow guide channel and a through hole 3031 in the top cover component 3, so that short circuit and out of control of other battery cells caused by diffusion to peripheral battery cells are avoided;
secondly, the flame caused by the thermal runaway of the battery cell 2 can be extinguished through the extinguishing layer 302.
The above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solution of the present invention, and not to limit it; although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, it should be understood by those skilled in the art that: the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments may still be modified, or some technical features may be equivalently replaced; such modifications and substitutions do not depart from the spirit and scope of the present invention in its corresponding aspects.
