具体实施方式
为详细说明技术方案的技术内容、构造特征、所实现目的及效果,以下结合具体实施例并配合附图详予说明。
发明人发现,如图1a、图1b所示,现有的液冷板由冷却管1和集流管2焊接而成,集流管2一般为方管或圆管,集流管2上开设有冷却管管口大小的焊接孔,焊接孔所用工艺为机加工。当冷却管1与集流管2进行焊接时,存在焊接面积过小、焊接不牢靠的缺点,容易造成焊接处的机械强度不足,从而导致液冷板经过振动之后的泄露风险升高。
基于此,如图2a、图2b、图2c以及图2d所示,本实施例提供一种电池冷却组件100,包括:
冷却管1:冷却管1内通冷却介质,冷却介质可以是液体,也可以是气体;冷却管1通常设置在电池系统中以带走电池热量,从而实现电池系统的冷却。
集流管2,集流管2上设有集流孔24;集流管2的集流通道具有分配、汇集冷却介质 的作用,例如,两个集流管2可以将多个冷却管1并联在一起,其中一个集流管2将冷却介质分配给所有冷却管1,所有冷却管1内的冷却介质汇集到另一个集流管2内。
具体参见图2d和图3a,连接辅助件3,连接辅助件3包括基板31,基板31上设有通孔32,通孔32的孔壁向外延伸形成延伸部33。
冷却管1的端部通过上述通孔32与上述延伸部33连接,基板31与集流管2连接,通孔32与集流孔24连通。电池冷却组件100在集流管2的集流孔24和冷却管1的连接处设置连接辅助件3,即冷却管1的端部通过通孔32与延伸部33连接,基板31与集流管2连接,通孔32与集流孔24连通;通过延伸部33使冷却管1的端部和通孔32之间的连接更加牢固,通过基板31使连接辅助件3和集流管2之间的连接更加牢固,以此增加冷却管1与集流管2的连接面积,提高两者的连接强度,从而保证良好的密封性,降低冷却介质的泄露风险。
上述冷却管1的横截面形状可以是矩形、圆形、三角形、长条形等形状。
冷却管1可以为口琴管,其具有多条相互平行的冷却通道,使冷却介质分流至每个冷却通道内,以提高冷却效率。
由于由金属板材焊接而成的集流管2存在泄露风险,上述集流管2可以通过挤出成型工艺制成,如此设计,集流管2上就不存在任何焊接缝,能够进一步降低集流管2内冷却介质的泄漏风险。
参考图2a、图2c以及图2d,集流管2呈方形结构,集流管2由顶壁21、底壁22以及两侧壁23构成,集流孔24设在其中一个侧壁23上。
上述连接辅助件3的延伸部33可以沿通孔32轴线双向延伸,使延伸部33突出于基板31的两个表面,相当于延伸部33贯穿于整个基板31(未予图示);该延伸部33也可以沿通孔32轴线单向延伸,使延伸部33只突出于基板31的一个表面,相当于延伸部33成型在基板31的一个表面上(参见图3a)。若连接辅助件3的延伸部33单向延伸,则其结构更加简化,制造更加简单。延伸部33可以由通孔32的部分孔壁向外延伸而成,例如,通孔32呈圆形,延伸部33由通孔32的四分之一孔壁向外延伸而成,那么,延伸部33呈弧形板结构;再例如,通孔32呈长方形,通孔32由顶孔壁321、底孔壁322以及两个侧孔壁323构成,延伸部33由通孔32的一侧孔壁323向外延伸而成,那么,延伸部33呈平板结构。延伸部33也可以由通孔32的全部孔壁向外延伸而成,那么,延伸部33呈管状结构(参见图3a),冷却管1的端部与延伸部33的内周壁432连接,这样增大了冷却管1的端部与连接辅助件3的连接面积。此外,延伸部33和基板31可以通过凹凸模具一体成型,可以通过冲压工艺一体成型,也可以通过焊接等固连方式相连而成。当采用冲压工艺制造连接辅助件3时,延伸 部33在采用冲压工艺在基板31上冲压上述通孔32时形成。
上述基板31上可以开设一个通孔32,也可以开设多个通孔32,例如,如图3a和图3b所示,每块基板31上开设有两个通孔32,每个连接辅助件3可以固定连接一对冷却管1;若需要多个冷却管1并联至上述集流管2上时,可以连续使用多个连接辅助件3,以达到连接多对冷却管1的目的。
如图3a、图3b以及图3c所示,作为上述连接辅助件3的第二实施例:上述基板31的两表面分别为第一表面311和第二表面312,延伸部33成型在第二表面312上,第一表面311的通孔32处设有倒角部34,这样便于将冷却管1的端口插设在上述通孔32内。
上述连接辅助件3与上述集流管2相互固定时,连接辅助件3的延伸部33可以朝背离集流孔24的方向延伸形成,此时,延伸部33未插设在集流孔24内;延伸部33也可以伸入至集流孔24内(参见图2d),此时,延伸部33插设在集流孔24内,这样使连接辅助件3和集流管2之间的连接更加稳固。
如图2a和图3a所示,作为连接辅助件3的延伸部33和集流管2的集流孔24的第一种连接方式:延伸部33的横截面形状与集流孔24的形状相适配,延伸部33经集流孔24伸入至集流管2的集流通道内,这样使连接辅助件3和集流管2之间的连接更加稳固。例如,延伸部33的横截面形状与集流孔24的形状均呈长条形,延伸部33的外周壁331由顶平面3311、底平面3312以及两侧曲面3313构成,集流孔24的孔边缘由顶边缘241、底边缘242以及两个侧边缘243构成,顶边缘241和底边缘242为直边缘。
如图4a、图4b和图4c所示,作为连接辅助件3的延伸部33和集流管2的集流孔24的第二种连接方式:集流孔24的孔边缘由顶边缘241、底边缘242以及两个侧边缘243构成,通孔32的孔壁由顶孔壁321、底孔壁322以及两个侧孔壁323构成,延伸部33由底孔壁322向外延伸而成,延伸部33抵靠在集流孔24的底边缘242上,这样集流孔24的底边缘242能够支撑连接辅助件3,提高连接辅助件3和集流管2之间的连接强度。
如图2a和图2d所示,上述集流管2由顶壁21、底壁22以及两侧壁23构成,集流孔24设在其中一个侧壁23上,并且集流孔24的顶边缘241与顶壁21的距离D1大于集流孔24的底边缘242与底壁22的距离D2。虽然集流孔24的底边缘242离集流管2的底壁22太近,无法通过冲压工艺在集流孔24的底边缘242处形成翻边(翻边用于连接冷却管的端部),但是连接辅助件3的延伸部33能够很好地弥补该工艺缺陷。因此,集流孔24可以通过机加工开设,不需要在集流管2内放入开孔模具,将集流孔24开设在靠近底壁22的位置,从而降低冷却管1相对于集流管2的布置高度。
仍旧参见图2a和图2d,上述集流孔24的底边缘242与上述底壁22的内表面对齐,即上述距离D2为零,这样连接辅助件3的延伸部33经集流孔24伸入至集流管2内,且与底壁22的内表面(即集流通道的底面)连接,以此进一步增加连接辅助件3与集流管2的连接面积,增强两者之间的连接强度。
上述连接辅助件3与上述集流管2、冷却管1之间均可通过焊接方式连接,具体可为:
如图3a、图3b、以及图3c所示,上述基板31的两表面分别为第一表面311和第二表面312,延伸部33成型在第二表面312上,基板31的第二表面312与集流管2贴合固连,或者基板31的第一表面311与集流管2贴合固连。
基板31为金属片,上述延伸部33采用冲压工艺在金属片上冲压上述通孔32时形成,金属片包括基材层,基材层的两表面均设有焊料复合层。基材层为金属片的主体材料,以保证连接辅助件3本身的结构强度。例如,基材层可以是铝片,设在铝片一表面的焊料复合层为钎焊剂层,用于将连接辅助件3和集流管2焊接在一起,设在铝片另一表面的焊料复合层也为钎焊剂层,用于将连接辅助件3和冷却管1焊接在一起。钎焊剂层可以是熔点较低的铝材料层。铝片通过冲孔翻边工艺形成延伸部33,虽然延伸部33的厚度相对于铝片的厚度减薄,影响了延伸部33本身的强度,但是,连接辅助件3是独立于集流管2的衔接零件,也就是说,上述基材层可以使用更加厚的铝片,通过冲压拉伸获得更长、更厚的延伸部33,这样增大了连接辅助件3和冷却管1之间的连接面积,增强了连接辅助件3和冷却管1之间的连接强度。
作为上述电池冷却组件100的一具体组装过程:
以上述集流管2上设有多个集流孔24,且并联多根冷却管1为例:电池冷却组件100包括两个集流管2、两个连接辅助件3、以及多根冷却管1,每个集流管2上的集流孔24数量与冷却管1数量相同,每个连接辅助件3上的延伸部33数量亦与冷却管1数量相同,基板31与集流管2相连的一表面、通孔32的孔壁以及延伸部33(延伸部呈管状)的内周壁332均设有焊料复合层。首先,将两个连接辅助件3分别安装到两个集流管2上,并且使基板31上设有焊料复合层的一表面紧贴集流管2;然后,将每根冷却管1的两端部分别插入至两个连接辅助件3的通孔32内,并且使冷却管1的端部与延伸部33的内周壁332紧贴,致使两个集流管2将所有冷却管1并联起来;最后,将组装好的电池冷却组件100整体放入钎焊炉内,由焊料复合层熔化形成的焊料填充在基板31与集流管2的缝隙中,填充在通孔32与冷却管1的端部的缝隙中,同时填充在延伸部33的内周壁332和冷却管1的端部的缝隙中,待冷却凝固后,焊料将冷却管1、连接辅助件3以及集流管2焊接成一个整体。
综上所述,电池冷却组件100能够提高冷却管1和集流管2之间的连接强度,从而降低冷却介质的泄露风险。所以,有效克服了现有技术中的种种缺点而具高度产业利用价值。
