Abstract

The disclosure relates a battery technology field, and in particular, relates to a battery pack. The battery pack includes a battery array and a liquid cooling tube. The battery array includes at least two batteries, and the batteries are arranged in a first direction. The liquid cooling tube is disposed on a surface of the battery array and is configured to dissipate heat for the batteries. The liquid cooling tube includes cooling portions, and the cooling portions are portions of an orthographic projection of the liquid cooling tube on the battery array. Orthographic projections of the cooling portions on the battery array are cooling regions. In the battery array, at least one of the batteries is located outside a range of the cooling portions.

Claims (15)

1. A battery pack, comprising:

a battery array, comprising at least two batteries, wherein the at least two batteries are arranged in a first direction; and

a liquid cooling tube, disposed on a surface of the battery array, configured to dissipate heat for the at least two batteries, wherein the liquid cooling tube comprises cooling portions, the cooling portions are portions of an orthographic projection of the liquid cooling tube on the battery array, the orthographic projections of the cooling portions on the battery array are cooling regions, and at least one of the at least two batteries is located outside a range of the cooling regions in the battery array,

wherein the battery array comprises at least two battery units, the at least two battery units comprise at least one of the at least two batteries, the cooling regions of the cooling portions are located in a range of one of the at least two battery units only, and a heat insulation structure is provided between adjacent battery units.

2. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein the cooling portions are disposed on at least one of a top portion and a bottom portion of the battery array.

3. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein at least partial regions of each of the at least two batteries overlap with the cooling regions.

4. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein each of the at least two battery units is provided with the cooling portions.

5. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein in a same battery unit, the battery adjacent to the adjacent battery unit is a target battery, and each of the rest of the at least two batteries is a non-target battery, wherein the cooling region at least partially overlapping with the non-target battery is a non-target battery cooling region, and at least a portion of the target battery is located outside the non-target battery cooling region.

6. The battery pack according to claim 5 , wherein the target battery is entirely located outside the non-target battery cooling region.

7. The battery pack according to claim 5 , wherein the liquid cooling tube further comprises first connection portions, and the first connection portions connect the cooling portions corresponding to the non-target battery cooling regions together.

8. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein each of the at least two battery units comprises at least one of the at least two batteries, the battery adjacent to the adjacent battery unit is a target battery, wherein the target battery is provided with the cooling portion whose cooling region only at least partially overlaps with the target battery.

9. The battery pack according to claim 1 , wherein the cooling portions extend in a second direction, and the second direction is not parallel to the first direction.

10. The battery pack according to claim 9 , wherein the second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

11. The battery pack according to claim 10 , wherein a length of each of the cooling portions in the second direction is equal to a width of each of the at least two batteries in the second direction.

12. The battery pack according to claim 10 , wherein each of the at least two battery units comprises at least one of the at least two batteries, and in a same battery unit, the battery adjacent to the adjacent battery unit is a target battery, wherein the liquid cooling tube further comprises second connection portions, the cooling regions only at least partially overlapping with the target batteries of the battery units are target battery cooling regions, and the second connection portions connect the cooling portions corresponding to the target battery cooling regions arranged in the second direction together.
