Container for energy storage apparatus
The present invention relates to a container for an energy storage apparatus, the container including: a container main body which defines an internal space finished by an upper plate, a lower plate, and a plurality of sidewalls; a first support frame which is installed on the upper plate of the container main body; a second support frame which is installed on the lower plate of the container main body; and one or more vertical frames which are coupled to the first and second support frames in a vertical direction, and configure vertical frames for a typically used battery rack.
1. A container for an energy storage apparatus, the container comprising:
a container main body which defines an internal space finished by an upper plate, a lower plate, and one or more sidewalls;
support frames which are installed on the upper plate and the lower plate of the container main body;
a first plurality of pairs of vertical frames coupled to the support frames in a vertical direction; and
a first plurality of support portions extending between each of the first plurality of pairs of vertical frames, each pair of the first plurality of pairs of vertical frames having a plurality of support portions spaced from one another in the vertical direction,
wherein the support frames include a first support frame which is installed on the upper plate of the container main body, and a second support frame which is installed on the lower plate of the container main body, the plurality of pairs of vertical frames extending between a lower surface of the second support frame and an upper surface of the first support frame, and
wherein the support frames directly couple the container main body and the vertical frame.
2. The container of claim 1 , wherein the support frames include one or more first coupling grooves so as to be coupled to the first plurality of pairs of vertical frames.
3. The container of claim 2 , further comprising:
one or more fixing members for fixing a coupling of the support frames and the first plurality of pairs of vertical frames.
4. The container of claim 1 , wherein the first plurality of pairs of vertical frames includes one or more second coupling grooves so as to be coupled to the support portions.
5. The container of claim 1 , further comprising:
a plurality of grooves in a lower surface of the first support frame,
wherein an upper edge of each of the first plurality of pairs of vertical frames fits within one of the grooves.
6. The container of claim 1 , further comprising:
a third support frame installed on the upper plate of the container main body and a fourth support frame installed on the lower plate of the container main body;
a second plurality of pairs of vertical frames coupled to the third support frame and the fourth support frame; and
a second plurality of support portions extending between each of the second plurality of pairs of vertical frames, each pair of the second plurality of pairs of vertical frames having a plurality of support portions spaced from one another in the vertical direction.
7. The container of claim 6 , wherein the first support frame and second support frame form a first row and the third support frame and fourth support frame form a second row.
8. The container of claim 7 , wherein the first row is parallel to the second row.
9. The container of claim 1 , wherein the first support frame and the second support frame are spaced from the at least one sidewall.
10. The container of claim 1 , wherein the at least one sidewall is four sidewalls.
11. The container of claim 1 , wherein the first support frame is directly over the second support frame.
12. The container of claim 1 , wherein an upper surface of the first support frame directly contacts a lower surface of the upper plate.
13. The container of claim 12 , wherein a lower surface of the second support frame directly contacts an upper surface of the lower plate.
