Description

一种电池模组及车辆A battery module and vehicle 技术领域technical field
本发明涉及电池技术领域,特别涉及一种电池模组及车辆。The present invention relates to the technical field of batteries, in particular to a battery module and a vehicle.
背景技术Background technique
在国家政策和市场的驱动下,电动汽车得以迅速发展,因此也带来了对动力电池越来越旺盛的需求。如何在有限的空间中放置更多的电芯来提高整包的能量密度,从而提高续航里程,越来越受到人们的关注。Driven by national policies and markets, the rapid development of electric vehicles has also brought about a growing demand for power batteries. How to place more cells in a limited space to improve the energy density of the whole package, thereby improving the cruising range, has attracted more and more attention.
现有电池包技术中,电芯是其核心部件。电芯通过各种的放置方式,例如:单独布置或被设计成为模组,再固定到电池包内。为配合不同车型车辆所具有的动力电池包的空间,电芯需选用不同尺寸或规格以满足包内空间需求,这又造成了电池包规格的重复开发,带来高昂的开发成本。In the existing battery pack technology, the battery cell is its core component. The cells are placed in various ways, such as individually arranged or designed as modules, and then fixed into the battery pack. In order to match the space of the power battery packs of different models of vehicles, the cells need to be selected in different sizes or specifications to meet the space requirements in the packs, which in turn results in repeated development of battery pack specifications and high development costs.
通常,电芯在20℃~40℃范围内时,其充放电性能最佳,也最有利于电芯的寿命。而电芯在高倍率充放电过程中产热量大,若热量急聚产生使得局部过热或温度不均,容易导致电池性能下降、容量和寿命的衰减,甚至导致电池热失控的发生。因此,现有技术中常采用液冷散热装置对其进行散热处理。然而,散热装置需具有与电芯尺寸相适配的体积以具有较佳的散热效率,额外增加了电池包的体积。在既有空间有限的情况下,则造成了电芯的尺寸的压缩,这与增加电芯数量以提高能量密度的理念之间存在着不易调和的矛盾。除此之外,电芯在其充放电的循环过程中会产生膨胀,因此,在电芯组装时需预留一定的空间。否则,电芯之间因热膨胀造成相互挤压,或者电芯对电池包外壳框架造成挤压,有造成电芯破损、电芯内导电液渗漏、外壳框架散架的风险。Usually, when the cell is in the range of 20℃~40℃, its charge and discharge performance is the best, and it is also most beneficial to the life of the cell. However, during the high-rate charge and discharge process, the battery generates a large amount of heat. If the heat accumulates rapidly, causing local overheating or uneven temperature, it will easily lead to the decline of battery performance, the attenuation of capacity and life, and even the occurrence of thermal runaway of the battery. Therefore, in the prior art, a liquid-cooled heat dissipation device is often used to dissipate heat. However, the heat dissipation device needs to have a volume suitable for the size of the battery cell to have better heat dissipation efficiency, which increases the volume of the battery pack. When the existing space is limited, the size of the cells is compressed, which is not easy to reconcile with the concept of increasing the number of cells to improve the energy density. In addition, the battery cell will expand during the cycle of charging and discharging, so a certain space needs to be reserved when the battery cell is assembled. Otherwise, the cells may be squeezed against each other due to thermal expansion, or the cells may be squeezed against the casing frame of the battery pack, which may cause damage to the cells, leakage of the conductive liquid in the cells, and the risk of the casing frame falling apart.
针对现有技术存在的上述问题,本申请旨在提供一种电池模组及车辆,能够协调提高电芯能量密度与提供供冷却装置的布置和供电芯热膨胀的空间之间的问题,并且在无需重复开发电芯,有利于降低电池模组成本。In view of the above problems existing in the prior art, the present application aims to provide a battery module and a vehicle, which can coordinate the problems between improving the energy density of the battery cells and providing the space for the arrangement of the cooling device and the thermal expansion of the power supply core, and without the need for Repeated development of battery cells will help reduce the cost of battery modules.
