Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail below with reference to the following detailed description of the preferred embodiments.
As shown in fig. 1 and fig. 2, the battery module of the invention includes an upper bracket 1, a lower bracket 1, a battery core 2, a main bus bar 3 and an auxiliary bus bar 4, wherein the upper bracket 1 and the lower bracket 1 are respectively provided with a battery core fixing hole 11, the upper end and the lower end of the battery core 2 are respectively fixedly connected to the battery core fixing holes 11 of the upper bracket and the lower bracket, the upper surface of the upper bracket 1 and the lower surface of the lower bracket 1 are respectively provided with the main bus bar 3, each battery core fixing hole 11 is formed with a plurality of rows, each row of battery core fixing holes 11 is located beside the main bus bar, the upper surface of the upper bracket and the lower surface of the lower bracket are respectively provided with a plurality of accommodating grooves 12, the accommodating grooves 12 are in one-to-one correspondence with each battery core fixing hole 11, the accommodating grooves 12 are located between each battery core fixing hole 11 and the main bus bar 3, each battery core 2 is connected to the main bus bar 3 through the auxiliary bus bar 4, and each auxiliary bus bar 4 is located at the opening of the accommodating groove 12, the accommodating groove 12 is filled with a thermally expansive material. When the electric core 2 is overheated, the heated expansion material foams and expands, so that a thrust is formed on the upper auxiliary bus bar 4, and the auxiliary bus bar 4 is disconnected. The primary current collector sheet is preferably an aluminum sheet.
It should be noted here that it is only preferable to provide the receiving groove 12 in both the upper and lower frames and fill the receiving groove 12 with the thermal expansion material. Only one of the lower support 1 and the upper support 1 is provided with the accommodating groove 12, and the accommodating groove 12 is filled with a thermal expansion material, so that when the battery cell 2 is overheated or the whole battery module is in an overheated environment, the sub bus bar 4 on the lower support 1 on the side of the negative electrode end of the battery cell 2 is disconnected or the sub bus bar 4 on the upper support 1 on the side of the positive electrode end of the battery cell 2 is disconnected, that is, the battery cell 2 stops supplying power.
In order to ensure that the thermal expansion material has sufficient sensitivity, the distance between the accommodating groove 12 and the corresponding battery cell 2 may not be too large, and the distance between the battery cell fixing hole 11 and the accommodating groove 12 is preferably less than 2 mm. The secondary bus bar 4 is preferably an aluminum sheet.
Generally, the preset temperature of the battery core is 80 ℃, so that the expansion degree of the thermal expansion material can be limited to disconnect the secondary bus bar 4 when the thermal expansion material exceeds the preset temperature, and therefore, strict requirements are imposed on the expansion coefficient of the thermal expansion material and the sensitivity to temperature change. Based on the above, the invention also discloses a thermal expansion material specially used for a battery module, which comprises 71-76 wt% of methyl phenyl silicone resin (with a solid content of 60%), 16-24 wt% of promoter dibutyl tin dilaurate, 0.5-1.5 wt% of cross-linking agent ethyl orthosilicate, 1-5 wt% of mica powder, 1-3 wt% of white carbon black and 0.2-0.8 wt% of expansion microspheres.
The specific formula is preferably 73.5 wt% of methyl phenyl silicone resin (solid content is 60%), 20 wt% of promoter dibutyl tin dilaurate, 1 wt% of cross-linking agent ethyl orthosilicate, 3 wt% of mica powder, 2 wt% of white carbon black and 0.5 wt% of expanded microspheres.
Example 1
As shown in fig. 1 and 2, a main bus bar fixing groove 13 is formed at a middle position of the upper and lower support frames 1, and the main bus bar 3 is fixedly connected to the main bus bar fixing groove 13, and specifically, the main bus bar fixing groove 13 may be filled with adhesive, so that the main bus bar 3 is adhered to the main bus bar fixing groove 13. Each battery cell fixing hole 11 is divided into two rows, and the two rows are respectively located on two sides of the main bus bar 3. The main bus bar 3 is connected with the electric core 2 in each electric core fixing hole 11 through the auxiliary bus bar 4 in a welding manner, the auxiliary bus bar 4 is arranged at the opening of each accommodating groove 12, and the accommodating grooves 12 are filled with thermal expansion materials.
Example 2
The difference between the present embodiment and embodiment 1 is that in the present embodiment, two main bus bars 3 are respectively disposed on the upper bracket 1 and the lower bracket 1, and each main bus bar includes a first main bus bar and a second main bus bar, the cell fixing holes 11 on the bracket 1 are divided into four rows, two rows are located on two sides of the first main bus bar 3, the other two rows are located on two sides of the second main bus bar, the first main bus bar is connected with the second main bus bar, and the material of the connected portion is the same as the material of the main bus bar 3, and is preferably an aluminum sheet. Two main bus bars 3 and electric core 2 in each electric core fixed orifices 11 of side pass through vice bus bar 4 welded connection, and vice bus bar 4 is in the opening part of each holding tank 12, are filled with thermal energy material in the holding tank 12. It should be noted that, the two embodiments are only preferred, and more main bus bars may be arranged according to actual needs, and specific connection manners of the battery core and the main bus bar may refer to the embodiments, and are not described herein again.
As can be seen from the above description, when a certain electric core 2 in the battery module according to the present invention is abnormally overheated, the thermal expansion material in the side accommodating groove 12 expands and foams, so as to break the secondary bus bar 4 connecting the electric core 2 and the main bus bar 3, thereby disconnecting the electric core 2 and stopping power supply. When the whole battery module is in an excessively high temperature environment, the auxiliary bus bar 4 between the battery cells 2 and the main bus bar 3 is broken by the thermal expansion material, and all the battery cells 2 stop supplying power. Has good protection effect.
The above are only typical examples of the present invention, and besides, the present invention may have other embodiments, and all the technical solutions formed by equivalent substitutions or equivalent changes are within the scope of the present invention as claimed.
