Description

防爆阀、电池包及电动汽车

技术领域
本发明涉及电池技术领域,尤其涉及一种防爆阀、电池包及电动汽车。
背景技术
当电池包应用于电动汽车中时,电池包通常固定于电动汽车的车体内。由于电池包内的电池有可能因过充、短路或被刺穿而发生急剧大量排气现象,此时需要将气体及时排出至电动汽车的车体外,以避免电池包内部气压过大产生爆破。
目前,为了将电池包内部的气体及时排出至电动汽车的车体外,常用的做法是:在电池包的侧面安装防爆阀、并通过排气管将防爆阀与车体外部连通(此时排气管的一端连接于防爆阀、另一端经由车体上的排气孔伸出至车体外部)。但是,采用这种侧面设置防爆阀和排气管的方式,增大了电池包的整体尺寸,由此降低了电池包的能量密度;当电池包安装于电动汽车的车体内时,其在一定程度上牺牲了电池包在车体内的可用空间,从而降低了电池包在车体内的空间利用率。
发明内容
鉴于背景技术中存在的问题,本发明的目的在于提供一种防爆阀、电池包及电动汽车,防爆阀设置于电池包的箱体底部与车体之间,从而提高了电池包在车体内的空间利用率;且防爆阀直接与车体外部连通,从而使得电池包无需额外设置排气管结构,由此不仅简化了电池包的结构、还减小了电池包的整体尺寸,进而提高了电池包的能量密度。
为了实现上述目的,本发明提供了一种防爆阀,其包括第一连接件、第二连接件、弹性连接件和防爆膜。第一连接件形成有上端口且包括顶针。第二连接件在上下方向上位于第一连接件下方并与第一连接件间隔设置。弹性 连接件套设于第一连接件和第二连接件并密封连接第一连接件和第二连接件。防爆膜设置于第一连接件的上端口并密封所述上端口,且防爆膜在上下方向上位于顶针上方。

第一连接件还包括第一止挡部和第一延伸部。第一止挡部形成于第一主体部的周向外侧并突出于第一主体部,第一延伸部形成于第一主体部的周向外侧并突出于第一主体部,且第一延伸部在上下方向上与第一止挡部间隔设置。防爆阀还包括第一密封件,第一密封件在第一止挡部与第一延伸部之间套设于第一主体部。
第一连接件还包括支撑部,该支撑部形成于第一主体部的周向内侧并突出于第一主体部,所述顶针设置于支撑部并面向防爆膜。
第二连接件包括第二主体部和第二连接部。第二主体部沿上下方向延伸,第二连接部沿上下方向延伸并位于第二主体部上方,且第二连接部密封连接于弹性连接件。
第二连接件还包括第二止挡部和第二延伸部。第二止挡部形成于第二主体部的周向外侧并突出于第二主体部,第二延伸部形成于第二主体部的周向外侧并突出于第二主体部,且第二延伸部在上下方向上与第二止挡部间隔设置。防爆阀还包括第二密封件,第二密封件在第二止挡部和第二延伸部之间套设于第二主体部。
第一连接件还包括第一杆部,第一杆部沿上下方向延伸并位于第一连接部下方。第二连接件还包括多个第二杆部和弹性悬臂,所述多个第二杆部沿周向间隔设置,各第二杆部沿上下方向延伸并连接于第二主体部,且弹性悬臂以悬臂式方式连接于相邻的两个第二杆部。第二连接件的弹性悬臂与第一连接件的第一杆部配合,以使第一连接件连接于第二连接件。
第二连接件的弹性悬臂与第一连接件的第一杆部之间的配合方式为凹凸配合。
弹性悬臂具有第一端部、第二端部和连接轴部。第一端部和第二端部在上下方向上位于连接轴部两侧,连接轴部突出于第一端部和第二端部并连接 于相邻的两个第二杆部。弹性悬臂的第一端部与第一杆部的末端配合,以使第一连接件连接于第二连接件。
弹性悬臂相对于所述多个第二杆部围成的中空腔体的中心轴线倾斜。
本发明还提供了一种电池包,其包括箱体和上述所述的防爆阀。箱体包括底板,且底板设置有第一安装孔。防爆阀的第一连接件设置于第一安装孔并与底板密封连接,第二连接件和弹性连接件在上下方向上位于底板下方。
电池包的防爆阀通过第一连接件直接设置于箱体的底板,且通过第二连接件直接设置于车体,且防爆阀的部分伸入箱体内、部分伸出车体外。

在本申请的电动汽车中,由于电池包的防爆阀通过第一连接件直接设置于箱体的底板、通过第二连接件直接设置于车体,从而防爆阀能够充分利用电池包的底板与车体之间的狭小空间,由此提高了电池包在车体内的空间利用率。并且,基于第一连接件、弹性连接件以及第二连接件之间的连通关系,实现了防爆阀与车体外部的连通,从而使得电池包无需额外设置伸出车体外部的排气管结构,由此不仅简化了电池包的结构、还减小了电池包的整体尺寸,进而提高了电池包的能量密度。此外,当电动汽车在道路不平的路况下行驶时,基于弹性连接件自身的弹性,防爆阀还能够及时吸收外界的振动和冲击,从而提高了电池包与车体之间的连接可靠性和密封可靠性。

参照图1至图7,电动汽车可包括电池包1和车体2。其中,电池包1通过紧固件S固定于车体2内。车体2可为钣金件,且车体2设置有第二安装孔21。
电池包1可包括箱体、收容于箱体内的多个电池(未示出)以及安装于箱体的防爆阀12。箱体收容于车体2内且包括支撑所述多个电池的底板11,底板11面向车体2并沿上下方向Z贯通设置有第一安装孔111。
防爆阀12的一端设置于底板11的第一安装孔111并与底板11密封连接、防爆阀12的另一端设置于车体2的第二安装孔21并与车体2密封连接,且防爆阀12的部分伸入箱体内、部分伸出车体2外,从而当电池包1的箱体内产生大量气体时,电池包1能够通过防爆阀12将箱体内部的气体及时排出到 车体2外。
具体地,参照图1至图13,防爆阀12可包括第一连接件121、第二连接件122、弹性连接件123、防爆膜124、第一密封件125和第二密封件126。
参照图8至图10,第一连接件121通过第一安装孔111安装于底板11,且第一连接件121形成有上端口1211且包括顶针1212。防爆膜124设置于第一连接件121的上端口1211并密封所述上端口1211,且防爆膜124在上下方向Z上位于顶针1212的上方。当电池包1的箱体内产生大量气体时,所述大量气体会向下挤压防爆膜124直至防爆膜124被顶针1212刺破,由此实现第一连接件121与箱体内部的连通,从而将箱体内的气体排出。
第二连接件122在上下方向Z上位于第一连接件121下方并与第一连接件121间隔设置,且第二连接件122通过第二安装孔21安装于车体2。
弹性连接件123套设于第一连接件121和第二连接件122并密封连接第一连接件121和第二连接件122。第二连接件122连通于车体2外部且经由弹性连接件123与第一连接件121连通。
在本申请的电动汽车中,由于电池包1的防爆阀12通过第一连接件121直接设置于箱体的底板11(即电池包1的底部)、通过第二连接件122直接设置于车体2,从而防爆阀12能够充分利用电池包1的底板11与车体2之间的狭小空间,由此提高了电池包1在车体2内的空间利用率。并且,基于第一连接件121、弹性连接件123以及第二连接件122之间的连通关系,实现了防爆阀12与车体2外部的连通,从而使得电池包1无需额外设置伸出车体2外部的排气管结构,由此不仅简化了电池包1的结构、还减小了电池包1的整体尺寸,进而提高了电池包1的能量密度(即在车体2的安装空间不变的情况下,本申请的电池包1比传统结构的电池包的能量密度高)。此外,当电动汽车在道路不平的路况下行驶时,基于弹性连接件123自身的弹性,防爆阀12不仅能够吸收电池包1与车体2之间的装配公差、还能够及时吸收外界的振动和冲击,从而提高了电池包1与车体2之间的连接可靠性和密封可靠性。
参照图3、图5、图7以及图9至图11,防爆阀12的第一连接件121可包括第一主体部121A、第一止挡部121B、第一连接部121C、支撑部121D以及第一延伸部121E。
第一主体部121A沿上下方向Z延伸并形成有所述上端口1211,且第一主体部121A的部分收容于第一安装孔111、部分伸出第一安装孔111(即该部分收容于箱体内)。其中,第一主体部121A可形成为圆柱状结构。
第一止挡部121B设置于第一主体部121A伸入箱体的部分,且第一止挡部121B形成于第一主体部121A的周向外侧并突出于第一主体部121A。当防爆阀12的第一连接件121通过第一安装孔111安装于底板11后(如图3所示),第一连接件121的第一止挡部121B止挡于底板11上方,由此将防爆阀12固定于底板11。
为了便于第一止挡部121B能够随着第一主体部121A伸入箱体中,第一止挡部121B在上下方向Z上至少处于上方的外表面部分形成为斜面。进一步地,第一止挡部121B具有一定的回弹变形性,为了提高第一止挡部121B伸入箱体时的回弹变形性,第一止挡部121B在数量上可为多个,且多个第一止挡部121B沿第一主体部121A的周向间隔设置。
第一连接部121C沿上下方向Z延伸并位于第一主体部121A下方,且第一连接部121C供弹性连接件123套设并与弹性连接件123密封连接。
支撑部121D形成于第一主体部121A的周向内侧并突出于第一主体部121A。所述顶针1212设置于支撑部121D并面向防爆膜124。
第一延伸部121E形成于第一主体部121A的周向外侧并突出于第一主体部121A,且第一延伸部121E与第一止挡部121B在上下方向Z上间隔设置。其中,第一密封件125套设于第一主体部121A处于第一延伸部121E与第一止挡部121B之间的部分。当防爆阀12的第一连接件121通过第一安装孔111安装于底板11后(如图3、图5和图7所示),第一延伸部121E位于底板11下方,此时第一延伸部121E与底板11一起挤压设置于二者之间的第一密封件125,由此实现防爆阀12与底板11之间的密封连接。其中,第一密封件125可为O型密封圈或垫片等结构。
参照图3、图5、图7、图12和图13,防爆阀12的第二连接件122可包括第二主体部122A、第二止挡部122B、第二连接部122C和第二延伸部122D。
第二主体部122A沿上下方向Z延伸,且第二主体部122A的部分收容于车体2的第二安装孔21、部分伸出第二安装孔21(即该部分位于车体2外)。
第二止挡部122B设置于第二主体部122A伸出车体2的部分,且第二止 挡部122B形成于第二主体部122A的周向外侧并突出于第二主体部122A。当防爆阀12的第二连接件122通过第二安装孔21安装于车体2后(如图3和图5所示),第二连接件122的第二止挡部122B止挡于车体2下方,由此将防爆阀12固定于车体2。
为了便于第二止挡部122B能够随着第二主体部122A伸出车体2外,第二止挡部122B在上下方向Z上至少处于下方的外表面部分形成为斜面。进一步地,第二止挡部122B具有一定的回弹变形性,为了提高第二止挡部122B伸入箱体时的回弹变形性,第二止挡部122B在数量上可为多个,且多个第二止挡部122B沿第二主体部122A的周向间隔设置。
第二连接部122C沿上下方向Z延伸并位于第二主体部122A上方,且第二连接部122C供弹性连接件123套设并与弹性连接件123密封连接。
第二延伸部122D形成于第二主体部122A的周向外侧并突出于第二主体部122A,且第二延伸部122D与第二止挡部122B在上下方向Z上间隔设置。其中,第二密封件126套设于第二主体部122A处于第二延伸部122D与第二止挡部122B之间的部分。当防爆阀12的第二连接件122通过第二安装孔21安装于车体2后(如图3和图5所示),第二延伸部122D位于车体2上方,此时第二延伸部122D与车体2一起挤压设置于二者之间的第二密封件126,由此实现防爆阀12与车体2之间的密封连接。其中,第二密封件126可为O型密封圈或垫片等结构。
参照图5、图7以及图9至图13,第一连接件121还可包括第一杆部121F,第一杆部121F沿上下方向Z延伸并位于第一连接部121C下方。第二连接件122还可包括多个第二杆部122E(如图3和图12所示)和弹性悬臂122F,所述多个第二杆部122E沿周向间隔设置并一起围成中空腔体,各第二杆部122E沿上下方向Z延伸并连接于第二主体部122A,且弹性悬臂122F以悬臂式方式连接于相邻的两个第二杆部122E。
具体地,弹性悬臂122F成对设置,且成对中的两个弹性悬臂122F相对设置。并且,根据实际情况,弹性悬臂122F可设置为一对或多对。
需要说明的是,由于防爆阀12安装在箱体的底板11上,从而在电池包的搬运过程中可能因撞击防爆阀12而引起防爆阀12的损伤问题,因此在防爆阀12安装于车体2前,防爆阀12的第二连接件122可先与第一连接件121 完成装配,由此便于电池包1和防爆阀12的独立运输以及防爆阀12与车体2之间的安装。
其中,防爆阀12的具体组装过程如下:首先,第一连接件121通过弹性连接件123与第二连接件122进行柔性连接;然后,第一连接件121的第一杆部121F通过与第二连接件122的弹性悬臂122F之间的相互配合,使得第一连接件121与第二连接件122刚性地连接在一起(如图7和图10所示),由此完成防爆阀12的组装(此时防爆阀12为一个刚性结构,如图)。防爆阀12组装完成后,其不仅便于防爆阀12的独立运输,且在该装配状态下的防爆阀12处于刚性状态,当防爆阀12安装于车体2时,由于防爆阀12整体为刚性结构,从而避免了因弹性连接件123具有柔性而导致的安装定位难、无法用力装配的问题,由此提高了电池包1在车体2上的安装效率。
具体地,参照图8、图10、图12和图13,弹性悬臂122F可具有第一端部F1、第二端部F2和连接轴部F3。第一端部F1和第二端部F2在上下方向Z上位于连接轴部F3两侧,连接轴部F3突出于第一端部F1和第二端部F2并连接于相邻的两个第二杆部122E。其中,弹性悬臂122F的连接轴部F3与第一端部F1、第二端部F2一体成型并形成为十字状结构(如图12所示)。
在第一连接件121与第二连接件122组装前,第二连接件122的弹性悬臂122F处于自由放松状态,此时弹性悬臂122F的第二端部F2位于所述多个第二杆部122E外侧(即第二端部F2位于所述多个第二杆部122E围成的中空腔体外),而第一端部F1位于所述多个第二杆部122E内侧(即第一端部F1位于所述多个第二杆部122E围成的中空腔体内)。换句话说,弹性悬臂122F整体相对于所述中空腔体的中心轴线倾斜一定角度。
第二连接件122的弹性悬臂122F与第一连接件121的第一杆部121F之间的配合方式可为凹凸配合,由此使得第一连接件121与第二连接件122刚性地连接在一起。具体地,弹性悬臂122F的第一端部F1可设置有凸起H或凹槽C;相应地,第一杆部121F的末端可设置有凹槽C或凸起H。
当防爆阀12的第一连接件121与第二连接件122组装后,弹性悬臂122F的第一端部F1与第一杆部121F的末端凹凸配合,此时所述凸起H收容并止挡于所述凹槽C中(如图7和图10所示)。在二者的组装过程中,由于所述凹槽C的内壁对所述凸起H有向外的挤压力,且在挤压力的作用下弹性悬臂 122F的第一端部F1相对第二杆部122E的末端向外移动,从而使得所述凹槽C与所述凸起H相互顶住,由此实现第一连接件121与第二连接件122之间的刚性连接(此时防爆阀12为一个刚性结构)。当防爆阀12处于刚性状态下时,基于防爆阀12自身的刚性结构,防爆阀12的第二连接件122能够快速、准确地插入车体2的第二安装孔21中(此时第一连接件121的第一杆部121F的末端和第二连接件122的第二杆部122E的部分均伸出至第二安装孔21下方,如图7所示),由此提高了电池包1在车体2上的安装效率。
进一步地,在第二连接件122插入车体2的第二安装孔21中后,继续下压第二连接件122,当弹性悬臂122F的第二端部F2进入第二安装孔21中时,第二安装孔21的周壁挤压弹性悬臂122F的第二端部F2,从而使得弹性悬臂122F的第一端部F1逐渐远离第一杆部121F的末端、直至二者之间的配合关系被完全解除(即所述凸起H与所述凹槽C之间的凹凸配合关系被解除,此时弹性悬臂122F的第一端部F1与第一杆部121F的末端相对且间隔设置,如图5所示),由此完成防爆阀12与车体2之间的安装。换句话说,防爆阀12与车体2完成装配后,防爆阀12的第一连接件121与第二连接件122之间的刚性连接被解除,此时二者仅通过弹性连接件123进行柔性连接。而基于弹性连接件123自身的弹性,防爆阀12不仅能够吸收电池包1与车体2之间的装配公差、还能够及时吸收外界的振动和冲击,从而提高了电池包1与车体2之间的连接可靠性和密封可靠性。
