根据本申请的电池箱包括换热板1、下框体2、防护板3以及自密封铆接元件4。电池箱还包括保温垫6,保温垫6设置在换热板1和防护板3之间。通过保温垫6的设置,至少在换热板1的向下方向的热传递被阻断,进而对电池模组5的电池51进行保温。保温垫6的材料可为保温棉、泡棉等。电池51可通常包括壳体以及收容于壳体内的电极组件和电解质。电极组件包括正极片、负极片和隔离膜。电池51可以为罐型(或硬壳)电池,如图1所示,相应地,壳体包括顶盖以及与顶盖装配的外壳;或者电池51可以为袋型(或软包)电池,壳体由封装膜(例如铝塑膜)制成。
换热板1用于支撑电池51并与电池51进行热交换。换热板1包括流道部11和周缘部12,流道部11设有供换热介质流动的流道F,周缘部12位于流道部11外并环绕流道部11,周缘部12位于边框梁2A的下方,流道部11与边框梁2A一起形成向上开口的容置空间,流道部11用于支撑电池51并与电池51进行热交换。具体地,换热板1包括第一板13和第二板14;第二板14从下方与第一板13结合并形成供换热介质流动的流道F。第一板13 和/或第二板14可冲压成型。为了提高热交换的效果,换热板1为导热性高的材质,优选金属材料,进一步优选铝合金材质。
下框体2位于换热板1上,下框体2与换热板1一起形成向上开口的收容电池51的容置空间,下框体2为具有中空腔S的中空结构。下框体2包括边框梁2A,边框梁2A周向封闭且在上下方向Z开口。下框体2还包括内部梁2B,位于容置空间内并固定于边框梁2A。边框梁2A和内部梁2B均可为金属材质,例如铝合金,可以采用压铸件或挤出型材。为了减重,边框梁2A和内部梁2B可以具有型腔(即边框梁2A和内部梁2B均具有后述的中空腔S),即它们为具有型腔的型材。注意的是,边框梁2A和内部梁2B各自的纵向可以为X方向而横向可以为Y方向,或者纵向可以为Y方向而横向可以为X方向,但是在本文中,横向和纵向是梁结构自身的方向,即局部坐标系,其与图1中的电池箱的X-Y-Z方向为整体坐标系,两个坐标系之间不存在严格的对应关系。边框梁2A和内部梁2B均具有底壁21和顶壁22。
防护板3位于换热板1下方,从下方对换热板1进行防护。防护板3包括主体部31和环绕主体部31的外周部32,主体部31从下方遮盖换热板1的流道部11,外周部32位于换热板1的周缘部12下方。

自密封铆接元件4可以采用多种形式。
图5是自密封铆接元件的一种形式的分解剖视图。
图5所示的自密封铆接元件4为拉铆元件。自密封铆接元件4包括拉铆螺母41和拉铆螺栓42。拉铆螺母41具有内螺纹筒体411以及凸部412,凸部412从内螺纹筒体411的端部环绕内螺纹筒体411沿径向向外突出。拉铆螺栓42包括外螺纹柱421和盖部422,盖部422从外螺纹柱421的端部环绕 外螺纹柱421沿径向向外突出。
图6A是图3的沿A-A线作出的且翻转180度的剖视图,其中拉铆元件未进行拉铆操作。图6B是与5A对应的剖视图,其中拉铆元件已进行拉铆操作。图7A是与图6A对应的剖视图,其中拉铆元件颠倒180度且未进行拉铆操作。图7B是与7A对应的剖视图,其中拉铆元件已进行拉铆操作。图8A是图3的沿B-B线作出的且翻转180度的剖视图,其中拉铆元件未进行拉铆操作。图8B是与8A对应的剖视图,其中拉铆元件已进行拉铆操作。图9A是与图8A对应的剖视图,其中拉铆元件颠倒180度且未进行拉铆操作。图9B是与9A对应的剖视图,其中拉铆元件已进行拉铆操作。图10A是图3的沿C-C线作出的且翻转180度的剖视图,其中内部梁仅示出底壁且拉铆元件未进行拉铆操作。图10B是与10A对应的剖视图,其中拉铆元件已进行拉铆操作。
在图6A至图10B所示的示例中,内螺纹筒体411穿过防护板3、换热板1、下框体2的底壁21并使部分露出在防护板3、换热板1、下框体2的底壁21三者的上下方向Z的一外侧;外螺纹柱421从防护板3、换热板1、下框体2的底壁21的上下方向Z的相反的另一外侧穿入并与内螺纹筒体411螺纹接合;拉铆螺母41的凸部412沿上下方向Z抵靠在下框体2的底壁21的靠近拉铆螺栓42的盖部422的一侧;拉铆螺母41的内螺纹筒体411的所述露出的部分设置成通过拉铆形成突部411a;拉铆螺母41的内螺纹筒体411的突部411a和拉铆螺栓42的盖部422从防护板3、换热板1、下框体2的底壁21三者的上下方向Z的相反的两侧进行密封。第一位置P1位于防护板3处,第二位置P2位于下框体2的底壁21和顶壁22中的在上方与凸部412相邻的对应一个处。
具体地,以拉铆螺栓42为参照,拉铆螺栓42可以从防护板3的下方或从下框体2的上方沿上下方向Z***,而拉铆螺母41沿上下方向Z与拉铆螺栓42相对。
如图6A、图6B、图8A、图8B、图10A和图10B所示,拉铆螺栓42的外螺纹柱421沿上下方向Z从防护板3的下方在第一位置P1穿过防护板3、穿过换热板1、在第二位置P2***下框体2的底壁21、并露出在下框体2的中空腔S中;拉铆螺母41的内螺纹筒体411的所述露出的部分位于下框 体2的中空腔S;拉铆螺母41的凸部412沿上下方向Z位于下框体2的底壁21的下侧。采用这种方式,可以使得拉铆螺栓42的长度相比后述的图7A、图7B、图9A和图9B的情况相比要短得多,由此可以使得拉铆元件小型化。进一步地,在图6A、图6B、图8A、图8B所示的示例中,拉铆螺母41的凸部412沿上下方向Z位于下框体2的底壁21的下侧;凸部412被下框体2的底壁21和防护板3直接夹持。在图10A和图10B所示的示例中,凸部412被换热板1和防护板3直接夹持。在图10A和图10B所示的示例中,防护板3设有第二凹部R2,凸部412收容于第二凹部R2中,从而在保证防护板3厚度无需增加的情况下来收容凸部412,进而满足轻量化的要求。
如图7A、图7B、图9A和图9B所示,拉铆螺栓42的外螺纹柱421沿上下方向Z从下框体2的上方***下框体2的顶壁22、穿过下框体2的底壁21、穿过换热板1、在第一位置P1穿过防护板3、并露出在防护板3的下方;拉铆螺母41的内螺纹筒体411的所述露出的部分位于防护板3的下方。在图7A、图7B、图9A和图9B所示的示例中,防护板3设有第一凹部R1,拉铆螺母41的内螺纹筒体411的所述露出的部分位于第一凹部R1,从而节省空间,避免所述露出的部分在人搬运时碰伤人体。
无论拉铆螺栓42从防护板3的下方***还是从下框体2的上方***,在图6A至图10B所示的示例中,自密封铆接元件4还包括垫圈43,套设于外螺纹柱421,夹持在拉铆螺栓42的盖部422和下框体2的顶壁22或防护板3之间。垫圈43有助于增强在拉铆过程中的相应部位的抗压强度并辅助增强相应部位的密封性,尤其是垫圈43夹持在拉铆螺栓42的盖部422和防护板3之间时(由于防护板3和换热板1在上下方向Z的总厚度相比下框体2的上下方向Z的总厚度小的多)。
图11是自密封铆接元件的另一种形式的分解图。
图11所示的自密封铆接元件4为压铆元件。自密封铆接元件4包括压铆螺母44和压铆螺栓45。压铆螺母44具有帽体441、设置在帽体441的轴向内侧的螺母压花齿442、螺母导向槽443以及内螺纹筒部444。压铆螺栓45具有帽部451、设置在帽部451的轴向内侧的螺栓压花齿452、螺栓导向槽453以及外螺纹杆部454。
图12A是电池箱的自密封铆接元件与换热板、内部梁以及防护板组装的 另一形式的剖视图,其中压铆元件未进行压铆操作。图12B是与12A对应的剖视图,其中压铆元件颠倒180度且未进行压铆操作。
压铆螺栓45的帽部451和压铆螺母44的帽体441分别位于防护板3、换热板1和下框体2的顶壁22三者的上下方向Z的相反的两侧,压铆螺母44的内螺纹筒部444与压铆螺栓45的外螺纹杆部454穿过防护板3、换热板1和下框体2三者并接合,压铆螺栓45的螺栓压花齿452使其对应穿过的部分变形而与压铆螺栓45的螺栓导向槽453密封锁定且压铆螺母44的螺母压花齿442使其对应穿过的部分变形而与压铆螺母44的螺母导向槽443密封锁定,第一位置P1位于防护板3处,第二位置P2位于下框体2的顶壁22处。
与前述的拉铆元件一样,以压铆螺栓45为参照,压铆螺栓45可以从防护板3的下方或从下框体2的上方沿上下方向Z***,而压铆螺母44沿上下方向与压铆螺栓45相对。
如图12A所示,压铆螺栓45沿上下方向Z从防护板3的下方在第一位置P1穿过防护板3、穿过换热板1和下框体2的底壁21,以至少将穿过防护板3的部分密封;压铆螺母44沿上下方向Z在第二位置P2向下***下框体2的顶壁22和底壁21,并将***顶壁22的部位密封。
如图12B所示,压铆螺栓45沿上下方向Z在第二位置P2向下***下框体2的顶壁22和底壁21,并将***顶壁22的部位密封,压铆螺母44沿上下方向Z从防护板3的下方在第一位置P1穿过防护板3、换热板1、下框体2的底壁21,以至少将穿过防护板3的部分密封。
无论压铆螺栓45从防护板3的下方***还是从下框体2的上方***,在图12A和图12B所示的示例中,自密封铆接元件4还包括垫圈43,垫圈43套设于外螺纹杆部454、夹持在压铆螺栓45的帽部451和防护板3之间或夹持在压铆螺母44的帽体441和防护板3之间。垫圈43有助于增强在压铆过程中的防护板3的抗压强度并辅助增强防护板3的密封性。上面详细的说明描述多个示范性实施例,但本文不意欲限制到明确公开的组合。因此,除非另有说明,本文所公开的各种特征可以组合在一起而形成出于简明目的而未示出的多个另外组合。
