具体实施方式
下面结合附图和实施例对本申请的实施方式作进一步详细描述。以下实施例的详细描述和附图用于示例性地说明本申请的原理,但不能用来限制本申请的范围,即本申请不限于所描述的实施例。
在本申请的描述中,需要说明的是,除非另有说明,“多个”的含义是两个以上;术语“上”、“下”、“左”、“右”、“内”、“外”等指示的方位或位置关系仅是为了便于描述本申请和简化描述,而不是指示或暗示所指的装置或元件必须具有特定的方位、以特定的方位构造和操作,因此不能理解为对本申请的限制。此外,术语“第一”、“第二”、“第三”等仅用于描述目的,而不能理解为指示或暗示相对重要性。“垂直”并不是严格意义上的垂直,而是在误差允许范围之内。“平行”并不是严格意义上的平行,而是在误差允许范围之内。
下述描述中出现的方位词均为图中示出的方向,并不是对本申请的具体结构进行限定。在本申请的描述中,还需要说明的是,除非另有明确的规定和限定,术语“安装”、“相连”、“连接”应做广义理解,例如,可以是固定连接,也可以是可拆卸连接,或一体地连接;可以是直接相连,也可以通过中间媒介间接相连。对于本领域的普通技术人员而言,可视具体情况理解上述术语在本申请中的具体含义。
本申请中,电池单体可以包括一次电池、二次电池,例如可以是锂离子电池、锂硫电池、钠锂离子电池、钠离子电池或镁离子电池等,本申请实施例对此并不限定。电池单体可呈圆柱体、扁平体、长方体或其它形状等,本申请实施例对此也不限定。电池单体一般按封装的方式分成三种:柱形电池单体、方形电池单体和软包电池单体,本申请实施例对此也不限定。
本申请的实施例所提到的电池是指包括一个或多个电池单体以提供更高的电压和容量的单一的物理模块。例如,本申请中所提到的电池可以包括电池单体组或电池包等。电池包一般包括用于封装一个或多个电池单体的箱体。箱体可以避免液体或其他异物影响电池单体的充电或放电。
电池单体包括电极组件和电解液,电极组件包括正极片、负极片和隔离膜。电池单体主要依靠金属离子在正极片和负极片之间移动来工作。正极片包括正极集流体和正极活性物质层,正极活性物质层涂覆于正极集流体的表面,未涂敷正极活性物质层的集流体凸出于已涂覆正极活性物质层的集流体,未涂敷正极活性物质层的集流体作为正极极耳。以锂离子电池为例,正极集流体的材料可以为铝,正极活性物质可以为钴酸锂、磷酸铁锂、三元锂或锰酸锂等。负极片包括负极集流体和负极活性物质层,负极活性物质层涂覆于负极集流体的表面,未涂敷负极活性物质层的集流体凸出于已涂覆负极活性物质层的集流体,未涂敷负极活性物质层的集流体作为负极极耳。负极集流体的材料可以为铜,负极活性物质可以为碳或硅等。为了保证通过大电流而不发生熔断,正极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起,负极极耳的数量为多个且层叠在一起。隔离膜的材质可以为聚丙烯(PP)或聚乙烯(PE)等。此外,电极组件可以是卷绕式结构,也可以是叠片式结构,本申请实施例并不限于此。电池技术的发展要同时考虑多方面的设计因素,例如,能量密度、循环寿命、放电容量、充放电倍率等性能参数,另外,还需要考虑电池的安全性以及安装问题。
电池安装在用电装置后,如,本申请实施例中以电动汽车为例,由于电动汽车的运动,会导致电池的晃动,电池晃动幅度过大将会对电池的性能产生不利影响。
为了对电池进行固定,一种方式是通过电池箱体上设置的锁轴以及电动车辆的车架上设置的锁结构相互配合,对电池进行固定。
或者,也可以通过挂载结构件将电池挂载于车架的方式,例如,可以通过设置于电池内部的箱体梁中的挂载结构件,对电池箱体进行挂载。在利用箱体梁上的挂载结构件对电池进行挂载的情况中,电池箱体内一般包括多个电池单体,而且,多个电池单体之间通常设置有横梁或者纵梁,即上述箱体梁,设置于箱体梁上的挂载结构件可以贯穿箱体的上部、箱体梁以及箱体的底部,并且,挂载结构件的中部可以预留出空间,使得可以从车架上利用螺栓插进挂载结构件内部,实现对电池的挂载,即将电 池挂载在车架上。
然而,在上述利用箱体梁对电池进行挂载时,需要电池箱体内部具备箱体梁,但是对于电池箱体内部没有设置箱体梁的情况,例如,所有电池单体组成一个整体的电池单体组时,就无法利用箱体梁对电池箱体进行挂载。
鉴于此,本申请的实施例提供了一种技术方案,通过将电池单体容纳于箱体中,并利用箱体上的挂载结构件,将箱体挂载在用电装置上,从而可以提高电池在用电装置的稳定性,同时,将电池单体固定于箱体的设置有挂载结构件的壁上,将设置有挂载结构件的壁作为主要的承力构件,从而可以提升电池整体的刚度和结构强度,减少电池的晃动,继而保证电池的安全使用。
本申请实施例描述的技术方案均适用于各种使用电池的装置,例如,手机、便携式设备、笔记本电脑、电瓶车、电动玩具、电动工具、电动车辆、船舶和航天器等,例如,航天器包括飞机、火箭、航天飞机和宇宙飞船等。
应理解,本申请实施例描述的技术方案不仅仅局限适用于上述所描述的设备,还可以适用于所有使用电池的设备,但为描述简洁,下述实施例均以电动车辆为例进行说明。
例如,如图1所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种车辆1的结构示意图,车辆1可以为燃油汽车、燃气汽车或新能源汽车,新能源汽车可以是纯电动汽车、混合动力汽车或增程式汽车等。车辆1的内部可以设置马达40,控制器30以及电池10,控制器30用来控制电池10为马达40的供电。例如,在车辆1的底部或车头或车尾可以设置电池10。电池10可以用于车辆1的供电,例如,电池10可以作为车辆1的操作电源,用于车辆1的电路系统,例如,用于车辆1的启动、导航和运行时的工作用电需求。在本申请的另一实施例中,电池10不仅仅可以作为车辆1的操作电源,还可以作为车辆1的驱动电源,替代或部分地替代燃油或天然气为车辆1提供驱动动力。
为了满足不同的使用电力需求,本申请的电池可以包括多个电池单体,其中,多个电池单体之间可以串联或并联或混联,混联是指串联和并联的混合。电池也可以称为电池包。可选地,多个电池单体可以先串联或并联或混联组成电池模块,多个电池模块再串联或并联或混联组成电池。也就是说,多个电池单体可以直接组成电池,也可以先组成电池模块,电池模块再组成电池。
例如,如图2所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种电池10的结构示意图,电池10可以包括多个电池单体20。电池10还可以包括箱体,箱体内部为中空结构,多个电池单体20容纳于箱体内。如图2所示,箱体可以包括两部分,这里分别称为箱体第一部分111和箱体第二部分112,箱体第一部分111和箱体第二部分112扣合在一起。箱体第一部分111和箱体第二部分112的形状可以根据电池单体20组合的形状而定,箱体第一部分111和箱体第二部分112可以均具有一个开口。例如,箱体第一部分111和箱体第二部分112均可以为中空长方体且各自只有一个面为开口面,箱体第一部分111的开口和箱体第二部分112的开口相对设置,并且箱体第一部分111和箱体第二部分112相互扣合形成具有封闭腔室的箱体。多个电池单体20相互并联或串联或混联组合后置于箱体第一部分111和箱体第二部分112扣合后形成的箱体内。
可选地,电池10还可以包括其他结构,在此不再一一赘述。例如,该电池10还可以包括汇流部件,汇流部件用于实现多个电池单体20之间的电连接,例如并联或串联或混联。具体地,汇流部件可通过连接电池单体20的电极端子实现电池单体20之间的电连接。进一步地,汇流部件可通过焊接固定于电池单体20的电极端子。多个电池单体20的电能可进一步通过导电机构穿过箱体而引出。
根据不同的电力需求,电池单体的数量可以设置为任意数值。多个电池单体可通过串联、并联或混联的方式连接以实现较大的容量或功率。由于每个电池10中包括的电池单体的数量可能较多,为了便于安装,可以将电池单体分组设置,每组电池单体组成电池单体组200。电池单体组200中包括的电池单体的数量不限,可以根据需求设置。例如,图3为电池单体组的一个示例。电池可以包括多个电池单体组,这些电池单体组可通过串联、并联或混联的方式进行连接。
如图4所示,为本申请一个实施例的一种电池单体20的结构示意图,电池单体20包括一个或多个电极组件22、壳体211和盖板212。壳体211和盖板212形成外壳21。壳体211的壁以及盖板212均称为电池单体20的壁。壳体211根据一个或多个电极组件22组合后的形状而定,例如,壳体211可以为中空的长方体或正方体或圆柱体,且壳体211的其中一个面具有开口以便一个或多个电极组件22可以放置于壳体211内。例如,当壳体211为中空的长方体或正方体时,壳体211的其中一个平面为开口面,即该平面不具有壁体而使得壳体211内外相通。当壳体211可以为中空的圆柱体时,壳体211的端面为开口面,即该端面不具有壁体而使得壳体211内外相通。盖板212覆盖开口并且与壳体211连接,以形成放置电极组件22的封闭的腔体。壳体211内填充有电解质,例如电解液。
该电池单体20还可以包括两个电极端子214,两个电极端子214可以设置在盖板212上。盖板212通常是平板形状,两个电极端子214固定在盖板212的平板面上,两个电极端子214分别为正电极端子214a和负电极端子214b。每个电极端子214各对应设置一个连接构件23,其位于盖板212与电极组件22之间,用于将电极组件22和电极端子214实现电连接。
如图4所示,每个电极组件22具有第一极耳221a和第二极耳222a。第一极耳221a和第二极耳222a的极性相反。例如,当第一极耳221a为正极极耳时,第二极耳222a为负极极耳。一个或多个电极组件22的第一极耳221a通过一个连接构件23与一个电极端子连接,一个或多个电极组件22的第二极耳222a通过另一个连接构件23与另一个电极端子连接。例如,正电极端子214a通过一个连接构件23与正极极耳连接,负电极端子214b通过另一个连接构件23与负极极耳连接。
在该电池单体20中,根据实际使用需求,电极组件22可设置为单个,或多个,如图4所示,电池单体20内设置有4个独立的电极组件22。
如图5所示,为本申请另一实施例的包括泄压机构213的电池单体20的结构示意图。
图5中的壳体211、盖板212、电极组件22以及连接构件23与图4中的壳体211、盖板212、电极组件22以及连接构件23的一致,为了简洁,在此不再赘述。
图5中,泄压机构213设置于电池单体20的底壁上,即图5中的壁21a,其中,该泄压机构213可以为壁21a的一部分,也可以与壁21a为分体式结构,通过例如焊接的方式固定在壁21a上。当泄压机构213为壁21a的一部分时,例如,泄压机构213可以通过在壁21a上设置刻痕的方式形成,与该刻痕的对应的壁21a厚度小于泄压机构213除刻痕处其他区域的厚度。刻痕处是泄压机构213最薄弱的位置。当电池单体20产生的气体太多使得壳体211内部压力升高并达到阈值或电池单体20内部反应产生热量造成电池单体20内部温度升高并达到阈值时,泄压机构213可以在刻痕处发生破裂而导致壳体211内外相通,气体压力及温度通过泄压机构213的裂开向外释放,进而避免电池单体20发生爆炸。
图5中是以泄压机构213位于电池单体20的底壁上为例进行描述,但应理解,本申请实施例中的泄压机构213可以位于壳体211的侧壁上,或者也可以位于盖板212上,或者,也可以位于壳体211的两个壁的相交的位置,本申请实施例对此不做限制。
泄压机构213可以为各种可能的泄压结构,本申请实施例对此并不限定。例如,泄压机构213可以为温敏泄压机构,温敏泄压机构被配置为在设有泄压机构213的电池单体20的内部温度达到阈值时能够熔化;和/或,泄压机构213可以为压敏泄压机构,压敏泄压机构被配置为在设有泄压机构213的电池单体20的内部气压达到阈值时能够破裂。
由电池单体20组成的电池10能够被应用于用电装置中,以为用电装置提供电能。然而,当电池10被安装在用电装置中时,由于用电装置的运动,往往会导致电池的晃动,电池晃动幅度过大则会影响电池10的正常使用。鉴于此,本申请提供了一种电池10,如图6示出的电池10,通过本申请实施例的电池10,可以提高电池10在用电装置上的稳定性。
具体地,如图6所示,电池10可以包括多个电池单体20和箱体11。
作为一种实现方式,所述箱体10可以包括:第一部分101和第二部分102,所述第一部分101和所述第二部分102围合成容纳所述多个电池单体20的容置腔11a,所述多个电池单体20容纳于所述容置腔11a内。其中,所述多个电池单体20与所述第一部分101的第一壁101a的靠近所述多个电池单体20的第一表面1011a固定连接。箱体11还包括第一挂载结构件12,所述第一挂载结构12件设置于所述第一壁101a的远离所述多个电池单体20的第二表面1012a,用于将所述箱体11挂载到用电装置。其中,所述箱体11挂载于所述用电装置后,所述第二部分102位于所述第一部分101下方。
可选地,当上述箱体10在竖直方向上放置时,箱体10的第一部分101也可以称为上箱体或上箱盖,第二部分102可以为下箱体102或托盘等。或者箱体10沿其他方向放置时,该第一部分101和第二部分102也可以用其他名称表示。只要箱体10的第一部分101和第二部分102能围合成容纳多个电池单体20的容置腔11a即可,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
本申请中的第一壁101a可以是指与箱体11内的多个电池单体20相对的壁,例 如,当本申请中的第一部分101采用如图2中示出的箱体第一部分111的方式时,该第一部分101可以为中空长方体且只有一个面为开口面,此时,正对多个电池单体20的开口面就是本申请实施例中的第一壁101a,第一壁101a四周的四个面可以作为第二壁,本申请实施例对此不作限定;或者可选地,本申请实施例中的第一部分101也可以采取其他方式,如,第一部分101只有一个作为盖体的面时,由于此时第一部分101只有一个面,因此,第一部分101整体就可以看做第一壁101a。本申请实施例对第一部分101的具体实现方式不作限制,只要能与第二部分102之间围合形成容纳电池单体20的容置腔11a即可,其中,第一壁101a为第一部分101中的与多个电池单体20相对的面。
相对应的,第一壁101a可以包括两个表面,即第一表面1011a和第二表面1012a,其中,第一表面1011a可以是指第一壁101a上靠近多个电池单体20的表面,或者说,是位于容置腔11a内部的朝向电池单体20的表面;第二表面1012a可以是指第一壁101a的位于箱体11外部的远离电池单体的表面。
多个电池单体20可以在容置腔11a内呈直立或者横躺的结构布置。直立的结构布置可以为电极端子沿竖直方向布置,而横躺的结构布置可以为电极端子沿水平方向布置。多个电池单体20与所述第一部分101的第一壁101a的靠近所述多个电池单体20的第一表面1011a固定连接,也就是不管电池单体20在容置腔11a中呈哪种结构布置,其与箱体11的第一部分的第一壁101a的靠近电池单体20的第一表面1011a通过胶粘或其他方式固定连接,使电池单体20与第一部分101保持稳定的连接状态。
挂载结构件在本申请中可以理解为电池与用电装置的固定连接结构,实现将电池安装并固定到用电装置的目的。应理解,本申请实施例中的第一挂载结构件12可以采取多种方式。相应的,用电装置可以采用对应的结构与第一挂载结构件12实现挂载。例如,第一挂载结构件12可以采用螺栓结构,此时用电装置上可以使用螺母与第一挂载结构件12进行连接,或者,当第一挂载结构件12采用盲孔结构时,用电装置上也可以相应的使用螺栓,与第一挂载结构件12固定连接。
第一挂载结构件12设置于所述第一壁101a的远离所述多个电池单体20的第二表面1012a,由上可知,由于第二表面1012a是位于箱体11外部的表面,通过将第一挂载结构件12设置于第二表面1012a上,可以将箱体11通过第一挂载结构件12挂载于用电装置上。可选地,第一挂载结构件12可以通过多种方式固定于第二表面1012a上,例如,焊接、铆接、粘接等,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
本申请实施例中通过将多个电池单体20容纳于箱体11中,并利用箱体11上的第一挂载结构件12,将箱体11挂载在用电装置上,可以提高电池10在用电装置的连接强度及稳定性。并且,箱体11的第一部分101直接与用电装置的底板固定,还可以提高用电装置底板的强度,并且实现电池与用电装置有机结合的目的。同时,将多个电池单体20固定于箱体11的设置有挂载结构件12的第一壁101a上,将第一部分101作为主要的承力构件,从而可以提升电池整体的刚度和结构强度,减少电池的晃动,继而保证电池的安全使用。
作为一种实现方式,本申请实施例中的箱体11还包括:第一梁13,所述第一 梁13覆盖所述第一挂载结构件12并与所述第二表面1012a固定连接,并且,所述第一挂载结构件12经由所述第一梁13固定于所述用电装置。
如图7示出了本申请实施例的一种设置有第一梁13的箱体11的结构示意图。图8示出了对应于图7的箱体11的分解图。如图7和图8所示,第一梁13覆盖上述第一挂载结构件12,并可以与第二表面1012a连接。
第一梁13为第一部分101与用电装置之间的连接结构,其与第一部分101保持较大面积的固定连接,并与用电装置通过第一挂载结构件12实现多点连接,从而将第一部分101与用电装置实现固定连接。第一梁13可以是沿某一方向连续延伸的一体成型的梁,截面形状可以是U形、几形或者工字形等。第一梁13具有一定的高度,形成一定的高度空间容纳第一挂载结构件12,以形成覆盖第一挂载结构件12的状态。第一梁13根据其延伸的长度,可以覆盖一个或多个第一挂载结构件12。
通过设置覆盖第一挂载结构件12的第一梁13,一方面,由于本申请实施例中的第一部分101是与电池单体20固定连接的,其也是电池箱体11的主要的承力构件,将第一梁13设置在第一部分101上,可以增强第一部分101的刚度,进而可以增强电池10的整体刚度和结构强度。另一方面,箱体11可以通过第一挂载结构件12挂载在用电装置上,第一挂载结构件12处的应力较大,通过将第一梁13覆盖第一挂载结构件12,第一梁13可以整体受力,分散第一挂载结构件12处的应力,减少第一挂载结构件12失效的风险,从而保证了电池的安全使用。
应理解,由于上述第一梁13只设置于第一部分101的表面,而不涉及内部的电池单体20以及第二部分102,为了描述方便简洁,在图7和图8仅示出了第一部分101及设置于其上的部件,其余部分并未示出,但本申请实施例并不限于此。
如图7和图8所示,所述第一梁13可以包括侧壁131,所述第一梁13经由所述侧壁131与所述第二表面1012a固定连接。
侧壁131形成第一部分101与用电装置之间的高度空间的支撑结构。沿高度方向,其一端与第一部分101固定连接,另一端基本延伸至与用电装置抵接的高度。本申请中,参见图7及图8,第一梁13包括两个侧壁131,沿第一梁13的方向延伸。
可选地,第一梁的侧壁131可以利用胶粘剂与第二表面1012a粘接在一起,或者也可以通过焊接的方式,也可以通过铆接的方式等,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
通过两个侧壁131与第一部分101的第二表面1012a固定连接的方式,可以形成在高度方向上有效的容纳第一挂载结构件12的空间,并将用电装置稳定支撑于电池。
本申请实施例中的所述第一梁13还可以包括顶壁132,所述第一挂载结构件12经由所述顶壁132挂载到所述用电装置。
顶壁132可以具有平面结构,且该平面结构可以与第二表面1012a平行,箱体11挂载于用电装置后,该平面结构可以抵靠在用电装置上,顶壁132可以通过第一挂载结构件12,在第一部分101与用电装置之间建立起连接,参见图7及图8,该第一梁13可以包括一个顶壁132,顶壁132可以沿第一梁13的长度方向延伸。
顶壁132的平面结构可以分散第一挂载结构件12处的应力,并形成沿侧壁131 扩散的路径,将第一挂载结构件处12的应力分散到第一梁13上,从而可以避免因局部应力过大而导致的挂载结构件失效的问题。
更具体地,作为一种实现方式,本申请实施例中的所述顶壁132上设置有第一开孔133,所述第一挂载结构件12经由所述第一开孔133将所述箱体11挂载到所述用电装置。
第一开孔133设置于顶壁132上并且对应于第一挂载结构件12的所在位置,使得第一挂载结构件12可以穿过第一开孔133与用电装置连接,其开孔的大小和数量以及分布位置可以根据第一挂载结构件12进行设置。
通过第一开孔133,首先,可以实现第一挂载结构件12与用电装置之间的挂载,其次,由于该第一开孔133是位于第一梁13上的,第一挂载结构件12穿过第一梁13上的第一开孔133与用电装置连接,使得第一梁13可以对第一挂载结构件12处的应力进行分散,从而可以避免因局部应力过大而导致的挂载结构件失效的问题。
图7和图8中,第一梁13对应于第一挂载结构件12的位置具有较大的宽度,以容纳第一挂载结构件12,但应理解,附图仅示例性的示出了一种第一梁13的可能的实现方式。第一梁13也可以具有其他形状,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
作为一种实现方式,本申请实施例中的所述第一梁13可以沿所述箱体11的第一方向延伸并覆盖所述第一挂载结构件12。
可选地,该第一方向可以是箱体11的长度方向,或者是箱体11的宽度方向,本申请实施例对此不作限定。其中,箱体11的长度方向是指箱体11长度更大的方向,宽度方向是指箱体11长度更短的方向。
可选地,本申请实施例中的第一梁13在第一方向的长度可以只覆盖第一挂载结构件12所在的区域,或者,第一梁13的在第一方向上的长度也可以与箱体在第一方向的长度相同。
以图7的箱体11为例,第一梁13沿箱体11的宽度方向延伸,在箱体11的长度方向间隔设置多个第一梁13,并且第一梁13覆盖多个第一挂载结构件12。第一挂载结构件12呈现比较均匀的阵列结构,而多个第一梁13相互平行覆盖沿箱体11宽度方向的第一挂载结构件11,使得电池的第一部分101,在本申请中作为上箱体的部分,稳定连接于用电装置。这样的布置结构,既加强了电池的箱体强度,又使得箱体受力均匀,合理分散所承受的各种力。
作为一种实现方式,本申请实施例中的所述箱体11还包括:第二梁14,所述第二梁14沿所述箱体11的第二方向延伸,并与所述第二表面1012a固定连接,所述第二方向垂直于所述第一方向。
第二梁14可以为第一部分101与用电装置之间的连接结构,并且,其延伸的方向与第一梁13延伸的方向基本垂直,通过在第一部分101上设置相互垂直的第一梁13和第二梁14,可以在不同方向上对第一部分101的强度进行加强,从而进一步加强箱体11整体的刚度和结构强度。
如图7和图8所示,第二梁14固定连接于第二表面1012a。
通过在第二表面1012a进一步设置第二梁14,可以进一步提升箱体11的第一 部分101的刚度,进而提高电池10的整体刚度和结构强度。
可选地,本申请实施例中的第一梁13延伸至与箱体11在第一方向的长度相同时,第一梁13可以与第二梁14固定连接。具体地,所述第二梁14与所述第一梁13的沿第一方向的端部固定连接。
通过将基本相互垂直设置的第一梁13和第二梁14固定连接,可以进一步提高电池10的结构强度和整体刚度,并且可以将经由第一梁13的力传递至第二梁14,有效地分散力,形成受力较均匀的结构。
本申请实施例中,为了将箱体11的第一部分101和第二部分102固定在一起,第一部分101和第二部分102可以分别包括连接区域1010a和连接区域1020a。如图6至图8中的连接区域1010a和连接区域1020a,通过连接区域,可以将第一部分101和第二部分102连接。连接区域1010a和连接区域1020a可以是围绕箱体周围的水平或以预定角度倾斜延伸的部分,两个连接区域在竖直方向相互抵靠,通过焊接、螺栓连接或是胶粘等固定方式固定在一起,形成完整的电池箱体11,对内部的电池单体20形成力或阻隔外界异物进入的保护。
进一步地,当本申请实施例中的箱体11包括连接区域1010a和1020a时,所述第二梁14可以与所述第一部分101的连接区域1010a固定连接,其中,所述连接区域1010a用于连接所述第一部分101与所述第二部分102。
设置于连接区域1010a的第二梁14,可以提升箱体11的整体刚度和结构强度,并提高箱体11的侧面抵抗挤压的能力。
应理解,上述实施例仅仅是作为第二梁14的设置方式的示例性描述,第二梁14也可以不设置在第二表面1012a边缘的连接区域1010a,而是设置于第二表面1012a的中间区域,例如,与第一梁13交叉设置,本申请实施例对此不作限制。
作为一种实现方式,本申请实施例中的箱体11还可以在连接区域1010a处设置第二挂载结构件15,以在箱体11的边缘区域对箱体11进行挂载。具体地,所述连接区域1010a设置有第二挂载结构件15,用于将所述箱体11挂载到所述用电装置。
第二挂载结构件15设置于箱体11的连接区域,由于本申请实施例中的箱体11包括第一部分101和第二部分102,需要对第一部分101和第二部分102进行连接以形成箱体11,一般来说,第一部分101和第二部分102的连接区域位于箱体11的边缘部分,通过在连接区域设置第二挂载结构件15,可以在箱体11的边缘区域对箱体11进行挂载,从而进一步提高箱体11的整体刚度和结构强度。
第二挂载结构件15的数量可以按照实际需求进行设置,如,当用电装置运动比较剧烈,需要保证箱体11在用电装置上良好的稳定性时,可以设置多个第二挂载结构15,已满足稳定性需求。
通过第一挂载结构件12和第二挂载结构15同时作用,可以牢固地固定电池,分散箱体11的受力点,使箱体11受力更加均匀。
进一步地,其中,所述第二梁14覆盖所述第二挂载结构件15,所述第二梁14上设置有第二开孔141,所述第二挂载结构件15经由所述第二开孔141将所述箱体11挂载到所述用电装置。
第二开孔141设置于第二梁14上并且对应于第二挂载结构件15的所在位置,使得第二挂载结构件15可以穿过第二梁14,与用电装置进行连接。第二开孔141的大小和数量以及分布位置可以根据第二挂载结构件15进行设置。
通过第二开孔141,首先,可以实现第二挂载结构件15与用电装置之间的挂载,其次,由于该第二开孔141是位于第二梁14上的,第二挂载结构件15穿过第二梁14上的第二开孔141与用电装置连接,使得第二梁14可以对第二挂载结构件15处的应力进行分散,从而可以避免因局部应力过大而导致的挂载结构件失效的问题。可选地,本申请实施例中的第二挂载结构件15可以为通孔。或者,第二挂载结构件15也可以采用与第一挂载结构件12相似的结构,本申请实施例对此不作限制。
本申请实施例中的第二梁14可以覆盖第二挂载结构件15,同时,第二梁14也可以与第一梁13固定连接,使得第一梁13可以通过第二梁14与第二挂载结构件15连接起来,进一步地,将第一挂载结构件12和第二挂载结构件15连接起来,从而可以使箱体11整体受力,分散了各个挂载结构件处所受的应力,避免电池局部振动幅度过大,提升了电池整体的刚度和结构强度,提升了电池的稳定性,从而保证了电池的安全使用。
可选地,本申请实施例中的第一挂载结构件12可以采取多种结构,只要能够实现将箱体11挂载在用电装置上即可。具体地,所述第一挂载结构件12可以为盲孔结构,或者为螺栓结构。
下面对第一挂载结构件12的两种结构进行详细描述。
作为一种实现方式,图9a和图9b示出了本申请实施例中的一种第一挂载结构件12的结构示意图。如图9a和图9b所示,该第一挂载结构件12可以采用盲孔结构。其中,该盲孔结构内部可以具有螺纹结构,用电装置可以通过例如螺栓,与具有螺纹结构的第一挂载结构件12固定连接。
为了便于从整体上理解箱体11的结构,图10a示出了对应于图9a和图9b的具有盲孔结构的第一挂载结构件12的箱体11的结构示意图。图10b对应于图10a中的位置c的局部细节图。如图10a和图10b所示,该具有盲孔结构的第一挂载结构件12位于第一部分101的第二表面1012a上,同时,第一梁13覆盖第一挂载结构件12,为了实现第一挂载结构件12和用电装置的连接,第一挂载结构件12可以经由第一梁13,如图7和图8中示出的第一梁13上的第一开孔133,与用电装置连接。
具体地,为了便于理解,本申请实施例中以车架2,如车辆1中的车架2为例进行描述,车架2置于第一梁13的上方,车架2可以通过螺栓21与带有螺纹结构的第一挂载结构件12进行连接,从而可以将箱体11挂载于用电装置上。
图10c示出了对应于图10a和10b的箱体11挂载于车架2上的平面示意图。通过第一挂载结构件12和第一梁13,将箱体11挂载于用电装置上,可以提高电池10的整体刚度和结构强度,提高电池10的稳定性,同时,第一梁13可以分散第一挂载结构件12处的应力,从而降低其失效的风险,保证了电池的安全使用。
作为另一种实现方式,图11a和图11b示出了本申请实施例中的另一种第一挂载结构件12的结构示意图。如图11a和图11b所示,该第一挂载结构件12可以采用 螺栓结构。其中,该螺栓结构的外表面具有螺纹结构,用电装置可以通过例如螺母,与具有螺纹结构的第一挂载结构件12固定连接。
相应的,图12a示出了对应于图11a和图11b的具有螺栓结构的第一挂载结构件12的箱体11的结构示意图。图12b为对应于图12a中的位置D的局部细节图。如图12a和图12b所示,该具有螺栓结构的第一挂载结构件12位于第一部分101的第二表面1012a上,同时,第一梁13覆盖第一挂载结构件12,为了实现第一挂载结构件12和用电装置的连接,第一挂载结构件12可以通过第一梁13,如图7和图8中示出的第一梁13上的第一开孔133,与用电装置连接。
具体地,为了便于理解,本申请实施例中仍以车架2,如车辆1中的车架2为例进行描述,车架2置于第一梁13的上方,车架2可以通过螺母22与具有螺纹的第一挂载结构件12进行连接,从而可以将箱体11挂载于用电装置上。
相应的,通过第一挂载结构件12和第一梁13,将箱体11挂载于用电装置上,可以提高电池10的整体刚度和结构强度,提高电池10的稳定性,同时,第一梁13可以分散第一挂载结构件12处的应力,从而降低其失效的风险,保证了电池的安全使用。
应理解,本申请实施例中给出的第一挂载结构件12采用螺栓结构或者盲孔结构的方式仅仅是示例性的描述了可能的实现方式,第一挂载结构件12也可以采取其他方式,例如卡扣连接等,本申请实施例对此不做限定。
本申请实施例中,当第一挂载结构件12采取不同的结构时,车架2可以采取相对应的连接方式,使得箱体11可以通过第一挂载结构件12挂载于用电装置上。
本申请实施例中,第一挂载结构件12可以根据实际需求设置于第二表面1012a的各个区域,例如前述各个实施例中示出的第一挂载结构件12所在的区域。具体地,所述第一挂载结构件12可以设置于如前述实施例中所示的所述第二表面1012a的中部区域。通过将第一挂载结构件12设置于中间区域,可以从电池10的中间区域进行挂载,从而提高电池10的整体稳定性和刚度。
其中,上述中间区域可以指的是箱体11上除了用于第一部分101和第二部分102连接的连接区域的部分。
或者可选地,本申请实施例中的第一挂载结构件12也可以设置于第二表面1012a的靠近边缘的区域,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
作为一种实现方式,本申请实施例中的第一挂载结构件12的数量也可以根据实际需求进行设置。例如可以设置多个第一挂载结构件12。
具体地,所述箱体11包括多个所述第一挂载结构件12,多个所述第一挂载结构件12均匀分布于所述第二表面1012a。如前述实施例中示出的第二表面1012a上设置的均匀分布的6个第一挂载结构件12。可选地,第一挂载结构件12的数量以及分布方式可以灵活布置,本申请实施例对此不作限定。
通过灵活设置第一挂载结构件12的数量和分布位置,可以满足不同箱体11的挂载需求。
作为一种实现方式,本申请实施例中的多个电池单体20可以作为一个整体的 电池单体组,各个电池单体20之间不设置箱体梁。具体地,所述多个电池单体20之间没有箱体梁。
