Abstract

PURPOSE:To improve heat-exchanging efficiency with heat-exchanging fluid even when the outside dimension and shape of a battery are slightly changed by providing deformable heat-exchange bags wherein heat-exchanging fluid passes in the inside between the battery and its housing case. CONSTITUTION:A heat exchanger 7 is composed of plural batteries 1, a housing case 22 having the housing chambers 21 of the batteries 1, and heat-exchanging bags 23 arranged in the middle to pass heat-exchanging fluid. The case 22 is fixed to a vehicle by resin having excellent corrosion resistance or a metal- made vessel. The bag 23 is formed into a bag state of a material excellent in durability, heat-exchanging fluid resistant property and a battery liquid resistant property, and rich in deformability such as a rubber material or a member wherein a fabric material, wherein fiber is woven in the inside of a rubber material, is embedded. The bags 23 in the respective housing chambers 21 are linked with each other by communication parts 24 arranged in the grooves 25 in the case 22, and the heat exchanging fluid flows through the respective bags. The heat-exchanging fluid is closely contacted with the battery 1 and the case 22 due to the internal pressure of the fluid to improve heat-exchanging efficiency.

The accommodation chamber for accommodating the battery in the accommodation case must be larger than the outer dimensions of the battery in order to reliably accommodate the battery, and the thermal expansion between the battery and the accommodation case. In order to prevent interference due to the difference, the accommodating portion is provided larger than the outer dimensions of the battery. That is, a gap (air layer) is created between the housing case and the battery. When a gap is created between the housing case and the battery, the heat transfer coefficient between the housing case and the battery sharply decreases. That is, the conventional heat exchange device for a battery has a problem that the heat exchange efficiency between the battery and the heat exchange fluid is poor because a gap is created between the housing case and the battery.

As the battery 1 used in this embodiment, a lead-acid battery (Pb-acid battery) having an optimum operating temperature near room temperature (20 to 75 ° C.) is shown, but other batteries may be used. The optimum operating temperature is a temperature determined to be optimum in consideration of the main characteristics of the battery 1, such as output, capacity and life. The lead storage battery used in this example has a long life within the range of 20 to 75 ° C., but the life is significantly reduced outside the range. By setting the minimum operating temperature to 20 ° C. or higher, the output and the capacity are not reduced.

The optimum operating temperature is 20 to 20 in this embodiment.
Another reason why the temperature is 75 ° C. will be described below. The outside air is used as a cold heat source for cooling the heated battery 1 as described later. Since the temperature of the outside air is high (about 35 ° C.) in the summer, the battery 1 cannot be cooled so much. From the result, it is appropriate to set the upper limit of the optimum operating temperature to 75 ° C. Similarly, the heat generated by the battery 1 itself is not so high in the battery 1 such as a lead storage battery whose optimum operating temperature is near room temperature. Further, the heat generated by the heat generating members (inverter 2, motor 3) is not so high. Considering these, winter (outside temperature -20 to 0 ° C)
It is appropriate that the lower limit of the optimum operating temperature is 20 ° C.

[Operation of Embodiment] Battery heat exchange device 7
The operation of will be described. The heat exchange bag 23 of the battery heat exchange device 7 is provided so as to be deformable and arranged between each battery 1 and the housing case 22. Therefore, when the electric pump 16 operates, the heat pumped by the electric pump 16 is supplied. It expands due to the supply pressure of the replacement fluid and comes into close contact with the entire side surfaces and the bottom surface of each battery 1, resulting in the battery 1 and the heat exchange bag 2.
It acts so as to minimize the generation of an air layer between 3 and 3.

When the temperature of the battery 1 is lower than the optimum temperature range and the temperatures of the inverter 2 and the motor 3 are higher than the predetermined temperature, the operation of the battery temperature control device 5 causes
The heat exchange fluid heated by the inverter 2 and the motor 3 is supplied to the heat exchange bag 23. And the heat exchange bag 23
Is in close contact with the entire circumferential side surface and bottom surface of each battery 1 as described above, the heat exchange fluid flowing through the heat exchange bag 23 and the battery 1 are heat-exchanged at a high heat exchange rate. The battery 1 can be quickly heated within the optimum temperature range. On the contrary, when the temperature of the battery 1 is higher than the optimum temperature range, the heat exchange fluid cooled by the radiator 8 is supplied to the heat exchange bag 23. Since the heat exchange bag 23 is in close contact with the entire side surface and bottom surface of each battery 1, the heat exchange fluid flowing through the heat exchange bag 23 and the battery 1 exchange heat at a high heat exchange rate. , Each battery 1 can be quickly cooled within the optimum temperature range.

[Effects of Embodiment] Battery heat exchange device 7
As described in the above operation, the heat exchange bag 23 expands due to the operation of the electric pump 16 and is brought into close contact with the entire circumferential side surface and the bottom surface of each battery 1, resulting in the battery 1 and the heat exchange bag 2.
It acts so as to minimize the generation of an air layer between 3 and 3. For this reason, even if the outer dimensions and the outer shape of the battery 1 change to some extent due to a change in the manufacturer, the heat exchange bag 23 comes into close contact with the battery 1, so that the heat exchange efficiency between the battery 1 and the heat exchange fluid is very high. high. Further, when the demand for quick heat exchange between the battery 1 and the heat exchange fluid is large, that is, when the flow rate of the heat exchange fluid is large, the heat exchange bag 23 has a larger adhesive force with the battery 1 and heat exchange with the battery 1. The amount of heat transferred to the working fluid increases.

When the electric pump 16 is stopped, the heat exchange bag 23
Since the internal pressure of the battery is small, the adhesion between the battery 1 and the heat exchange bag 23 decreases. Therefore, the battery 1 is replaced by the heat exchange bag 23.
The battery 1 can be easily taken out of or the battery 1 can be easily inserted into the heat exchange bag 23. That is, the replacement work of the battery 1 can be easily performed. Since the battery 1 is pressed by the deformable heat exchange bag 23 and held in the housing case 22, the vibration of the vehicle is mitigated by the heat exchange bag 23. Therefore, the effect of protecting the battery 1 from vibration and impact of the vehicle is also obtained. Since the heat exchange fluid is covered by the heat exchange bag 23 and the heat exchange fluid and the battery 1 are separated from each other, the safety of the battery 1 that generates a large current can be ensured.
