技术领域
本申请涉及电池技术领域,具体而言,涉及一种热管理部件、电池及用电装置。
背景技术
目前,随着新能源汽车快速发展,动力电池已得到越来越多的关注和认可。而为了新能源汽车的安全、稳定运行,需要对电池模组进行有效的热管理。
电池内的电池单体容易随着使用时间的增加而发生外形上的膨胀,从而容易导致电池单体与电池内的热管理部件的接触面积变小,影响热管理部件和电池单体热传导的效率。
发明内容
本申请提供一种热管理部件、电池及用电装置,用以实现热管理部件可被压缩并能够发生轻微变形,以减小电池单体的膨胀对其与热管理部件热传导的效果。
第一方面,本申请实施例提供一种热管理部件,包括:第一壁;第二壁,与所述第一壁间隔设置,所述第一壁与所述第二壁之间具有容纳空 间;支撑件,所述支撑件沿倾斜于所述第一壁或第二壁的延伸方向设置于所述容纳空间内。
在上述实施例中,热管理部件包括第一壁和与第一壁间隔设置的第二壁,且第一壁与第二壁之间具有容纳空间,容纳空间内可以用于容纳热交换介质,例如,可用于冷却后进行热交换的介质或者可用于加热后进行热交换的介质,具体,例如水、冷却液等,从而使得第一壁和第二壁中的至少一者与如电池单体、电池模组等目标件接触时,通过热传递的方式对目标件的温度进行调整。其中,在容纳空间内设有支撑件,且支撑件沿倾斜于第一壁或第二壁的沿伸方向设置,相较于支撑件垂直于第一壁或第二壁的沿伸方向的设置方式而言,本申请的支撑件的对第一壁和第二壁支撑力较小,使得热管理部件受到沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的挤压力时,热管理部件较易发生轻微变形,从而可满足电池包在如封箱装配时需要可压缩变形的风险,同时还可降低热管理部件因受到较大集中应力时发生损坏的风险。
在一些实施例中,所述支撑件的数量为多个,多个所述支撑件间隔设置于所述第一壁和所述第二壁之间。
在上述实施例中,通过在第一壁与第二壁之间间隔设置多个支撑件,多个支撑件能够将容纳空间分隔成多个流道,则当热交换介质进入容纳空间内时,热交换介质可分流至多个流道,从而可使热管理部件与目标件相接触时,能够对目标件的各个部位的温度进行较为均匀地调控,同时,支撑件间隔设置可以避免热管理部件存在局部的强度较高而不易压缩,能够提高整体的热交换功能的可靠性。
在一些实施例中,所述第一壁用于与目标件接触导热;所述支撑件与所述第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角在35°~55°的范围内。
在上述实施例中,当支撑件与第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角 小于35°时,支撑件对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力较大,导致热管理部件不易被压缩,当支撑件与第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角大于55°时,支撑件对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力较小,导致热管理部件受到较大集中应力时损坏,或因压缩变形量较大导致其与第二壁接触以封堵容纳空间,因此,通过将支撑件与第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角设置在35°~55°之间的范围内,既可使得热管理部件易被压缩发生轻微变形,又可降低热管理部件受到较大集中应力时发生损坏的风险,或避免因压缩变形量较大导致其与第二壁接触以封堵容纳空间的情况发生。
在一些实施例中,多个所述支撑件平行设置。
在上述实施例中,也即多个支撑件与第一壁所在平面向垂直的夹角均相同,每个支撑件对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力均相同,可降低热管理部件局部受力较大而发生变形的风险,同时,有助于提高产品的美观度。
在一些实施例中,至少两个所述支撑件分别与所述第一壁所成的夹角不同。
在上述实施例中,与多个支撑件平行设置的方式不同,也可将至少两个支撑件与第一壁所在平面之间的夹角设置成不同角度,如一个支撑件与第一壁所在平面之间的夹角为35°,与之相邻的另一个支撑件与第一壁所在平面之间的夹角为45°,同样可起到支撑第一壁和第二壁的作用,且可使得热管理部件能够发生轻微变形,结构和原理均较为简单,易于实现。
在一些实施例中,所述热管理部件包括连接端,所述连接端位于所述第一壁和所述第二壁之间并连接所述第一壁和所述第二壁,所述热管理部件还包括:至少一个端部加强件,设于所述第一壁和所述第二壁之间并靠近所述连接端设置。
在上述实施例中,通过在第一壁和第二壁之间并靠近连接第一壁和第二壁的连接端设置至少一个端部加强件,端部加强件起到支撑第一连接 壁和第二连接臂的连接端的作用,提高了连接端的局部强度,防止连接端在受到较大应力时发生损坏的情况发生。
具体的,端部加强件的数量为两个,两个端部支撑件分别用于支撑第一壁和第二壁的两个连接端。
在一些实施例中,所述端部加强件与所述连接端之间设有间隙。
在上述实施例中,即端部加强件与连接端之间间隔设置,使得热交换介质能够从端部加强件与连接端之间的间隙流通,使得连接端也能够进行热传导,从而可进一步提高热管理部件热传导的均匀性。
在一些实施例中,所述热管理部件还包括:第一加强件,所述第一加强件设于所述第一壁朝向所述第二壁的一侧表面,并且,所述第一加强件与所述第二壁间隔设置。
在上述实施例中,通过在第一壁朝向第二壁的一侧表面设置第一加强件,并使第一加强件与第二壁间隔设置,这样,第一加强件不仅可起到提高第一壁的刚度,还可避免热管理部件被挤压变形时,第一壁与第二壁直接接触的情况发生,进而可防止容纳空间被堵塞导致热交换介质无法流通的情况发生。
在一些实施例中,还包括:第二加强件,所述第二加强件设于所述第二壁朝向所述第一壁的一侧表面,并与所述第一壁间隔设置。
在上述实施例中,通过在第二壁朝向第一壁的一侧表面设置第二加强件,并使第二加强件与第一壁间隔设置,这样,第二加强件不仅可起到提高第二壁的刚度,还可进一步避免热管理部件被挤压变形时,第二壁与第一壁直接接触的情况发生,进而可进一步防止容纳空间被堵塞导致热交换介质无法流通的情况发生。
在一些实施例中,沿所述第一壁和所述第二壁的层叠方向投影,所述第二加强件与所述第一加强件错位设置。
在上述实施例中,通过将第一加强件与第二加强件沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向错位设置,因此,当第一壁和第二壁因被挤压而相互靠近时,可避免第一加强件与第二加强件相互抵接,从而可避免因第一加强件与第二加强件相抵接而导致热管理部件无法发生挤压变形的情况发生。
在一些实施例中,沿所述第一壁和所述第二壁的层叠方向,所述第一加强件和/或第二加强件的尺寸小于所述端部加强件。
在上述实施例中,即第一加强件沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸小于端部加强件,或者第二加强件沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸小于端部加强件,或者第一加强件和第二加强件沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸均小于端部加强件。由于端部加强件起到支撑第一壁和第二壁的作用,第一加强件和第二加强件起到防止第一壁和第二壁因挤压变形导致直接接触的缺口发生,则通过将第一加强件和第二加强沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸小于端部加强件,从而可在防止第一壁和第二壁的连接端受到较大应力而损坏的同时,又使得热管理部件被挤压时第一壁和第二壁不会直接接触,进而避免堵塞容纳空间的情况发生。
第二方面,本申请实施例提供了一种电池,包括:目标件;和如第一方面实施例中任一项所述的热管理部件,所述热管理部件通过所述第一壁与所述目标件导热接触。
在上述实施例中,目标件可以是电芯组等部件。由于第二方面实施例提供的电池包括第一方面实施例中任一项所述的热管理部件,因此具有上述任一实施例所具有的技术效果,在此不再赘述。
在一些实施例中,所述电池还包括集流部件,所述集流部件与所述热管理部件连接,所述集流部件包括集流流道,所述集流流道与所述热管理部件的所述容纳空间连通。
在上述实施例中,通过将集流部件的集流流道与热管理部件的容纳 空间相连通,从而可使热交换介质在通过集流部件进入容纳空间,以实现对目标件的温度调整,并且,能够使得容纳空间内的热交换介质在进行热交换以后回流入集流部件,以实现循环热传导。
第三方面,本申请实施例提供一种用电装置,包括第二方面实施例中所述的电池,所述电池用于为所述用电装置供电。

目前,从市场形势的发展来看,动力电池的应用越加广泛。动力电池不仅被应用于水力、火力、风力和太阳能电站等储能电源系统,而且还被广泛应用于电动自行车、电动摩托车、电动汽车等电动交通工具,以及军事装备和航空航天等多个领域。随着动力电池应用领域的不断扩大,其市场的需求量也在不断地扩增。
动力电池在不同的环境温度下会呈现不同的电循环性能,当环境温度过高或过低时,都会导致动力电池的循环性能下降,甚至引起其使用寿命缩短。为了使得新能源汽车安全、性能稳定、优异地运行,必须对电池模组进行有效的热管理,控制电池模组始终工作在合适的温度范围内。
发明人发现,随着电池使用时间的增长,电池内的电池单体容易由于内部产气引起外形的鼓胀,使得电池单体或多个电池单体组合形成的模块与热管理部件的导热面积减小,使得热交换效率降低,效果较差。
基于以上考虑,发明人经过深入研究,设计了一种热管理部件,在热管理部件的第一壁与第二壁之间设置有支撑件,且使支撑件沿倾斜于第一壁和第二壁的沿伸方向设置于容纳空间内,这样,可以使得支撑件对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力适当减弱,使得热管理部件在电池单体或电池模块发生外形的膨胀时可相应被压缩并能够发生轻微变形,从而可降低两者热交换面积的减小。
本申请实施例所提供的热管理部件和电池可以用于多种不同的用电装置中以解决上述问题,用电装置可以为但不限于手机、平板、笔记本电脑、电动玩具、电动工具、电瓶车、电动汽车、轮船、航天器等等。其中,电动玩具可以包括固定式或移动式的电动玩具,例如,游戏机、电动汽车玩具、电动轮船玩具和电动飞机玩具等等,航天器可以包括飞机、火箭、航天飞机和宇宙飞船等等。
以下实施例为了方便说明,以本申请一实施例的一种用电装置为车辆1000为例进行说明。
请参照图1,图1为本申请一些实施例提供的车辆1000的结构示意图。车辆1000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1000的内部设置有电池100,电池100可以设置在车辆1000的底部或头部或尾部。电池100可以用于车辆1000的供电,例如,电池100可以作为车辆1000的操作电源。车辆1000还可以包括控制器200和马达300,控制器200用来控制电池100为马达300供电,例如,用于车辆1000的启动、导航和行驶时的工作用电需求。
在本申请一些实施例中,电池100不仅可以作为车辆1000的操作电源,还可以作为车辆1000的驱动电源,代替或部分地代替燃油或天然气为车辆1000提供驱动动力。
请参照图2,图2为本申请一些实施例提供的电池100的分解结构示意图。电池100包括箱体10和电池单体20,电池单体20容纳于箱体10内。其中,箱体10用于电池单体20提供容纳空间,箱体10可以采用多种结构。在一些实施例中,箱体10可以包括第一部分11和第二部分12,第一部分11与第二部分12相互盖合,第一部分11和第二部分12共同限定出用于容纳电池单体20的容纳空间。第二部分12可以为一端开口的空心结构,第一部分11可以为板状结构,第一部分11盖合于第二部分12的开口侧,以使第一部分11与第二部分12共同限定出容纳空间;第一部分11和第二部分12也可以是均为一侧开口的空心结构,第一部分11的开口侧盖合于第二部分12的开口侧。当然,第一部分11和第二部分12形成的箱体10可以是多种形状,比如,圆柱体、长方体等。
在电池100中,电池单体20可以是多个,多个电池单体20之间可串联或并联或混联,混联是指多个电池单体20中既有串联又有并联。多个电池单体20之间可直接串联或并联或混联在一起,再将多个电池单体20构成的整体容纳于箱体10内;当然,电池100也可以是多个电池单体20先串联或并联或混联组成电池模块形式,多个电池模块再串联或并联或混联形成一个整体,并容纳于箱体10内。电池100还可以包括电连接件,用于实现多个电池单体20之间的电连接。电池单体20是指组成电池100的最小单元。如图3,电池单体20包括有电连接件,电连接结电连接件用于电连接相邻的两个电池单体20。
其中,每个电池单体20可以为二次电池单体或一次电池单体;还可以是锂硫电池单体、钠离子电池单体或镁离子电池单体,但不局限于此。 电池单体20可呈圆柱体、扁平体、长方体或其它形状等。
请参考图3,图3为本申请一些实施例提供的电池的局部结构示意图。根据本申请的一些实施例,本申请实施例提供的电池20包括目标件和热管理部件30,热管理部件30的第一壁用于与目标件接触,并对目标件进行热交换。其中,目标件可以是电池单体或电池模块等部件。
请参考图3,根据本申请的一些实施例,电池20还包括集流部件,集流部件与热管理部件30连接,集流部件包括集流流道,集流流道与热管理部件30的容纳空间303连通。通过将集流部件的集流流道与热管理部件30的容纳空间303相连通,从而可使热交换介质在通过集流部件进入容纳空间303,以实现对目标件的温度调整,并且,能够使得容纳空间303内的热交换介质在进行热交换以后回流入集流部件,以实现循环热交换。
请参考图3和图4,图4为本申请一些实施例提供的一种热管理部件30的剖视结构示意图。如图4所示,本申请一些实施例提供的热管理部件30,包括:第一壁;第二壁,与第一壁间隔设置,第一壁与第二壁之间具有容纳空间303;支撑件304,支撑件304沿倾斜于第一壁或第二壁的延伸方向设置于容纳空间303内。
第一壁和第二壁为导热件,用于与目标件进行热交换。
容纳空间303连通于热管理部件30的两端,用于供如水等热交换介质流通,从而使得第一壁和第二壁中的至少一者与如电池20模组等目标件接触时,通过热传递的方式对目标件的温度进行调整。
示例性的,支撑件304可以是支撑板或支撑筋等。且支撑件304的具体形状不受限定,如支撑件304的截面形状为直条状或弯折状等。
通过在容纳空间303内设有至少一个支撑件304,且至少一个支撑件304沿倾斜于第一壁或第二壁的沿伸方向设置,相较于支撑件304垂直 于第一壁或第二壁的沿伸方向的设置方式而言,本申请的支撑件304的对第一壁和第二壁支撑力较小,使得热管理部件30受到沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的挤压力时,热管理部件30较易发生轻微变形,从而可满足电池20包在如封箱装配时需要可压缩变形的风险,同时还可降低热管理部件30因受到较大集中应力时发生损坏的风险。
根据本申请的一些实施例,支撑件304的数量为多个,多个支撑件304间隔设置于第一壁和第二壁之间。
通过在第一壁与第二壁之间间隔设置多个支撑件304,在提高热管理部件30的支撑强度的同时,多个支撑件304能够将容纳空间303分隔成多个流道,则当热交换介质进入容纳空间303内时,热交换介质可分流至多个流道,从而可使热管理部件30与目标件相接触时,能够对目标件的各个部位的温度进行较为均匀地调控。
根据本申请的一些实施例,第一壁用于与目标件接触导热;支撑件304与第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角在35°~55°的范围内。
当支撑件304与第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角小于35°时,支撑件304对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力较大,导致热管理部件30不易被压缩,当支撑件304与第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角大于55°时,支撑件304对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力较小,导致热管理部件30受到较大集中应力时损坏,或因压缩变形量较大导致其与第二壁接触以封堵容纳空间303,因此,通过将支撑件304与第一壁所在平面相垂直的方向的夹角设置在35°~55°之间的范围内,既可使得热管理部件30易被压缩发生轻微变形,又可降低热管理部件30受到较大集中应力时发生损坏的风险,或避免因压缩变形量较大导致其与第二壁接触以封堵容纳空间303的情况发生。
请参考图4,根据本申请的一些实施例,多个支撑件304平行设置。
也即多个支撑件304与第一壁所在平面向垂直的夹角均相同,每个支撑件304对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力均相同,可降低热管理部件30局部受力较大而发生变形的风险,同时,有助于提高产品的美观度。
请参考图5,图5为本申请一些实施例提供的另一种热管理部件30的剖视结构示意图。根据本申请的一些实施例,至少两个支撑件304分别与第一壁所成的夹角不同。
与多个支撑件304平行设置的方式不同,也可将至少两个支撑件304与第一壁所在平面之间的夹角设置成不同角度,如一个支撑件304与第一壁所在平面之间的夹角为35°,与之相邻的另一个支撑件304与第一壁所在平面之间的夹角为45°,同样可起到支撑第一壁和第二壁的作用,且可使得热管理部件30能够发生轻微变形,结构和原理均较为简单,易于实现。
请参考图4和图5,根据本申请的一些实施例,热管理部件30包括连接端306,连接端306位于第一壁和第二壁之间并连接第一壁和第二壁,热管理部件30还包括:至少一个端部加强件305,设于第一壁和第二壁之间并靠近连接端306设置。
示例性的,连接端306为弧面结构。当然,也可以是直边,用于连接第一壁和第二壁。
示例性的,端部加强件305可以是加强板或加强筋等。
示例性的,端部加强件305的数量为两个,两个端部支撑件304分别用于支撑第一壁和第二壁的两个连接端306。
通过在第一壁和第二壁之间并靠近连接第一壁和第二壁的连接端306设置至少一个端部加强件305,端部加强件305起到支撑第一连接壁和第二连接臂的连接端306的作用,提高了连接端306的局部强度,防止连接端306在受到较大应力时发生损坏的情况发生。
请参考图4和图5,根据本申请的一些实施例,端部加强件305与连接端306之间设有间隙。
即端部加强件305与连接端306之间间隔设置,使得热交换介质能够从端部加强件305与连接端306之间的间隙流通,使得连接端306也能够进行热传导,从而可进一步提高热管理部件30热传导的均匀性。
请参考图4和图5,根据本申请的一些实施例,热管理部件30还包括:第一加强件307,第一加强件307设于第一壁朝向第二壁的一侧表面,并且,第一加强件307与第二壁间隔设置。
示例性的,第一加强件307可以是加强板或加强筋等。
通过在第一壁朝向第二壁的一侧表面设置第一加强件307,并使第一加强件307与第二壁间隔设置,这样,第一加强件307不仅可起到提高第一壁的刚度,还可避免热管理部件30被挤压变形时,第一壁与第二壁直接接触的情况发生,进而可防止容纳空间303被堵塞导致热交换介质无法流通的情况发生。
请参考图4和图5,根据本申请的一些实施例,热管理部件30还包括:第二加强件308,第二加强件308设于第二壁朝向第一壁的一侧表面,并与第一壁间隔设置。
示例性的,第二加强件308也可以是加强板或加强筋等。第二加强件308的尺寸可以与第一加强件307相同,也可以不同。
通过在第二壁朝向第一壁的一侧表面设置第二加强件308,并使第二加强件308与第一壁间隔设置,这样,第二加强件308不仅可起到提高第二壁的刚度,还可进一步避免热管理部件30被挤压变形时,第二壁与第一壁直接接触的情况发生,进而可进一步防止容纳空间303被堵塞导致热交换介质无法流通的情况发生。
请参考图4和图5,根据本申请的一些实施例,沿第一壁和第二壁 的层叠方向投影,第二加强件308与第一加强件307错位设置。
通过将第一加强件307与第二加强件308沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向错位设置,因此,当第一壁和第二壁因被挤压而相互靠近时,可避免第一加强件307与第二加强件308相互抵接,从而可避免因第一加强件307与第二加强件308相抵接而导致热管理部件30无法发生挤压变形的情况发生。
请参考图4和图5,根据本申请的一些实施例,沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向,第一加强件307和/或第二加强件308的尺寸小于端部加强件305。
即第一加强件307沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸小于端部加强件305,或者第二加强件308沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸小于端部加强件305,或者第一加强件307和第二加强件308沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸均小于端部加强件305。由于端部加强件305起到支撑第一壁和第二壁的作用,第一加强件307和第二加强件308起到防止第一壁和第二壁因挤压变形导致直接接触的缺口发生,则通过将第一加强件307和第二加强沿第一壁和第二壁的层叠方向的尺寸小于端部加强件305,从而可在防止第一壁和第二壁的连接端306受到较大应力而损坏的同时,又使得热管理部件30被挤压时第一壁和第二壁不会直接接触,进而避免堵塞容纳空间303的情况发生。
请参考图3至图5,根据本申请的一些实施例,本申请实施例提供了一种热管理部件30,包括第一壁和与第一壁相连的第二壁,第一壁与第二壁之间限定有容纳空间303,且第一壁与第二壁之间设置至少一个支撑件304,至少一个支撑件304沿倾斜于第一壁和第二壁的沿伸方向设置于容纳空间303内。同时,在靠近第一壁和第二壁的连接端306设置有与连接端306间隔设置的端部加强件305,在第一壁朝向第二壁的一侧表面上 设置有至少一个第一加强件307,第一加强件307与第二壁间隔设置,在第二壁朝向第一壁的一侧表面设置有第二加强件308,第二加强件308与第一壁间隔设置。其中,至少一个支撑件304由于与第一壁和第二壁的沿伸方向倾斜设置,因此对第一壁和第二壁的支撑力适当减弱,使得热管理部件30可被压缩并能够发生轻微变形,从而可满足热管理部件30需要可压缩的使用场景。
最后应说明的是:以上各实施例仅用以说明本申请的技术方案,而非对其限制;尽管参照前述各实施例对本申请进行了详细的说明,本领域的普通技术人员应当理解:其依然可以对前述各实施例所记载的技术方案进行修改,或者对其中部分或者全部技术特征进行等同替换;而这些修改或者替换,并不使相应技术方案的本质脱离本申请各实施例技术方案的范围,其均应涵盖在本申请的权利要求和说明书的范围当中。尤其是,只要不存在结构冲突,各个实施例中所提到的各项技术特征均可以任意方式组合起来。本申请并不局限于文中公开的特定实施例,而是包括落入权利要求的范围内的所有技术方案。
