Detailed Description
The utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the drawings and the detailed description. It should be understood by those skilled in the art that these embodiments are merely for explaining the technical principles of the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of the present utility model.
In the process of charging and discharging the battery, the temperature inside the battery is high, and the temperature at the electric connection part of the battery pole is also high. Based on the above, the utility model provides the battery pack with the temperature control device, which can treat the heat of the battery body and also treat the heat of the battery post, so that the temperatures of different positions of the whole battery are effectively controlled, and the safety of the battery is improved.
As shown in fig. 1 to 6, the temperature control device of the present utility model is mainly applied to a battery pack in which a plurality of batteries 1 are sequentially arranged in the thickness direction thereof to form a battery pack body. The temperature control device comprises a heat treatment part 2 and at least one heat transfer part 3; a part of the heat transfer portion 3 is provided between the adjacent cells 1 for heat exchange with the cell case of the unit cell, and the other part extends to the side of the battery pack body where the cell post 12 is provided. The heat treatment part 2 is located at one side of the battery pole 12, and exchanges heat with the heat transfer part 3 and also exchanges heat with the battery pole 12, thereby realizing control of temperatures of different areas of the whole battery.
When the battery is controlled in temperature, the heat transfer part 3 exchanges heat with the battery case 11, and the heat transfer part 3 transfers heat from a portion in contact with the battery case 11 to a portion in contact with the heat treatment part 2; subsequently, the heat treatment section 2 treats the transferred heat, and at the same time, the heat treatment section 2 directly exchanges heat with the battery post 12 to treat the heat generated from the battery post 12 so that the temperature of the entire battery 1 is within an optimal range. The heat treatment section 2 and the heat transfer section 3 above can be realized in various forms, and the structure and the preferred structure specifically adopted in the present embodiment are described below.
The heat treatment part 2 in the temperature control device of the present utility model may employ various devices having heating and/or cooling functions. For example, the heat treatment unit 2 may be a temperature control plate provided with a plurality of heat radiating fins, and the heat transferred by the heat transfer unit 3 may be dissipated through the heat radiating surfaces of the heat radiating fins, and a heating plate may be provided on the temperature control plate so as to have a heating function. For another example, the heat treatment unit 2 may employ a compression refrigerator or a TEC refrigerator, which exchanges heat with the heat transfer unit 3 and the battery post 12. For another example, the heat treatment unit 2 may employ a heat exchange device 4, and the heat exchange device 4 may employ a structure such as a liquid cooling tank or a liquid cooling pipe, and heat exchange may be achieved by circulation of a liquid medium. In the width direction of the battery 1, the heat treatment section 2 can cover at least a part of the battery post 12 so that heat exchange with the battery post 12 can be achieved, regardless of the configuration of the heat treatment section 2. In this embodiment, the heat treatment part 2 directly exchanges heat with the battery post 12 to form primary heat conduction, thereby improving heat exchange efficiency.
In the present embodiment, the heat treatment unit 2 preferably uses the heat exchange device 4 for transferring heat from the liquid in consideration of the temperature control effect. The heat exchange device 4 is of a rectangular box structure, and the width of the rectangular box is larger than the distance between the positive pole and the negative pole of the battery 1, so that the heat exchange device 4 can directly transfer heat with the battery pole 12. The inner space of the heat exchanger 4 is filled with a liquid medium which, when passing through the heat exchanger 4, interacts with the heat transfer part. The poles simultaneously realize heat exchange. The liquid medium may be water, ethylene glycol/water, propylene glycol/water, methanol/water, ethanol/water, calcium formate/water, or the like, having heat transfer capability. The heat exchange device 4 is provided with an inlet and an outlet for a liquid medium, and the liquid medium absorbs heat in the heat exchange device 4 and then processes the heat through an external circulation device and a cooling device. The above circulation device and cooling device may employ an existing conventional cooling circulation system, such as a circulation pump or a chiller, and will not be described in detail herein.
As shown in fig. 4, in this embodiment, a plurality of partition plates 41 may be further disposed in the cavity of the heat exchange device 4, and the plurality of partition plates 41 may control the flow direction of the liquid medium, so that the cooling flow passage of the heat exchange device 4 is a wavy flow passage, and the wavy cooling flow passage enables the liquid medium to fully flow into the cavity close to the two side poles, so that the liquid medium and the battery poles 12 perform sufficient heat exchange, and the heat exchange efficiency with the battery poles 12 is improved.
As shown in fig. 3, in the conventional battery pack, a plurality of batteries 1 are generally used in series or parallel, and the battery post 12 needs to be electrically connected to the post of the adjacent battery 1 and also needs to exchange heat with the heat treatment unit 2. At this time, the top surface of the battery post 12 may be designed in a stepped form, the low plane is a charge/discharge circuit connection plane, and is connected in series or in parallel with the conductive connection member, and the high plane is a heat conduction plane, and is in contact with the heat treatment portion 2 to realize heat exchange. In other connection modes, the top surfaces of the batteries 1 can be all heat conduction planes, and the poles of the adjacent batteries 1 can be electrically connected through the side surfaces of the poles.
In addition, as shown in fig. 2, if the heat treatment portion 2 is made of metal, an insulating layer or an insulating pad 7 is provided on the contact surface between the heat treatment portion 2 and the battery post 12, and the insulating layer may be specifically an insulating paint or an insulating paste coated on the surface of the heat treatment portion, in such a manner that the heat treatment portion 2 is in direct contact with the battery post 12 for heat exchange, in consideration of the insulation problem between the heat treatment portion and the battery post 12. However, since the insulating performance is ensured while considering the heat conduction effect, it is preferable to use an insulating pad having a heat conduction effect such as an insulating heat conduction silicon wafer having a small thickness.
In the temperature control device of the present utility model, the heat transfer part 3 is a member having heat transfer capability, absorbs heat generated from the body of the battery 1 when the battery 1 is charged or discharged, and transfers the heat to the heat treatment part 2, and the heat is treated by the heat treatment part 2, or the heat transfer part 3 absorbs heat of the heat treatment part 2, and then transfers the heat to the battery case 11. For example, a heat pipe, a heat-conducting aluminum plate, a heat-conducting copper plate, a water-cooling pipe, or the like can be specifically used. In order to improve the heat transfer performance, the heat transfer portion 3 is preferably formed in a sheet-like structure that is bonded to the side wall of the battery 1 case so as to have a large heat exchange area with the battery case 11.
If the heat transfer portion 3 is made of metal, possibly an electrical conductor, insulation is required between the battery case 11 and the heat transfer portion 3, or between the heat transfer portion 3 and the heat treatment portion 2, and insulation may be achieved by an insulating pad, an insulating film, an insulating paint, or an insulating adhesive, so that safe and reliable use of the battery pack is ensured.
In addition, the battery pack can generate bulge deformation in the process of high-temperature storage or charge and discharge, and the extrusion force generated by the bulge deformation easily causes leakage of the battery 1, so that potential safety hazards can be brought. At this time, a corresponding pressure-bearing structure may be provided between the adjacent cells 1 for suppressing deformation of the adjacent two cell cases 11 due to expansion, and in the present utility model, since the heat transfer portion 3 is provided between the adjacent cells 1, the above pressure-bearing effect may be achieved by the heat transfer portion 3 or the mounting structure of the heat transfer portion 3, and specifically may include the following structural forms:
first, as shown in fig. 5 and 6, grooves 14 are provided on the side walls of the battery cases 11, two grooves 14 of adjacent batteries 1 form a mounting cavity, a heat transfer portion 3 is provided in the mounting cavity, and in the battery arrangement direction, the size of the heat transfer portion 3 is larger than that of the mounting cavity, so that the heat transfer portion 3 can suppress deformation of the adjacent two battery cases 11 due to expansion;
second, as shown in fig. 1 to 3, the battery case 11 is provided with elongated members 13 protruding from the case side walls, the elongated members 13 of adjacent batteries 1 form positioning mounting grooves, and the number of the elongated members 13 constituting the positioning mounting grooves may be two or four; if the number of the elongated members 13 forming the positioning and mounting groove is two, one of the two adjacent shell side walls is respectively arranged, and the elongated members 13 on the two shell side walls are staggered; if the number of the elongated members 13 forming the positioning and mounting groove is four, two adjacent shell side walls are respectively provided with two elongated members 13, and the positions of the elongated members 13 on the two shell side walls are in one-to-one correspondence; the heat transfer part 3 is arranged in the positioning and mounting groove; in the cell arrangement direction, the heat transfer portion 3 has a size larger than that of the positioning mounting groove, so that the heat transfer portion 3 can suppress deformation of the adjacent two cell cases 11 due to expansion;
thirdly, the battery shell is provided with an elongated member 13 protruding out of the side wall of the shell, the elongated members 13 of adjacent batteries are contacted to form a positioning mounting groove, and the heat transfer part is arranged in the positioning mounting groove; in this configuration, a different number of elongate members 13 are formed with locating mounting slots in a similar manner to the second configuration. In the cell arrangement direction, the heat transfer portion has a smaller size than the positioning mounting groove, and at this time, deformation of the adjacent two cell cases 11 due to expansion can be suppressed by the elongated members 13 that are in contact;
among the above three structures, the heat transfer part 3 of the third structure is not in direct contact with the battery case, a certain gap is formed between the heat transfer part 3 and the side wall of the battery case, and heat during heat exchange is transferred through air, so that the heat transfer effect is poor. Therefore, the first structure and the second structure are preferably adopted, and the first structure and the second structure adopt a mode of clamping the heat transfer part 3, so that the heat transfer part 3 is tightly contacted with the battery shell 11, and the heat exchange between the heat transfer part 3 and the battery shell is facilitated.
The structural mode of taking the heat transfer part 3 as the pressure bearing structure can buffer and reduce the expansion pressure of adjacent batteries, avoids potential safety hazards such as leakage, internal short circuit, thermal runaway and the like caused by bulge deformation, and improves the safety and reliability of the whole battery pack. In addition, set up heat transfer portion 3 between two adjacent batteries 1, can also provide the heat dissipation passageway for two adjacent batteries 1, the heat that battery 1 produced can go on in time effectual output through this heat dissipation passageway, further promotes the radiating effect of group battery.
The heat transfer unit 3 of the present utility model has the above pressure-bearing performance, and mainly realizes heat exchange between the battery case 11 and the heat treatment unit 2.
