Abstract

A battery box comprises: a box frame, a heat management component, and an outer plate. The heat management component is disposed on one side of the box frame and is configured to adjust temperature of a battery housed in the battery box; the outer plate is arranged adjacent to the heat management component and is configured to make the heat management component cover on the box frame, and the outer plate is provided with a balance valve, the balance valve is configured to connect a cavity between the outer plate and the heat management component communicate with outside air.

Claims (29)

1 . A battery box, comprising: a box frame, a heat management component and an outer plate, wherein

the heat management component is arranged on one side of the box frame, and is configured to adjust temperature of a battery housed in the battery box; and

the outer plate is arranged adjacent to the heat management component and is configured to cover the heat management component on the box frame, and a balance valve is arranged on the outer plate, and the balance valve is configured to connect a cavity between the outer plate and the heat management component with outside air.

2 . The battery box according to claim 1 , wherein the balance valve is disposed at both ends of the outer plate.

3 . The battery box according to claim 1 , wherein the balance valve is arranged at a center of the outer plate.

4 . The battery box according to claim 1 , wherein the outer plate is provided with a fixing hole; and

the balance valve comprises a balance valve body, and a fixing structure is arranged on the balance valve body, and the fixing structure cooperates with the fixing hole to fix the balance valve on one side of the outer plate.

5 . The battery box according to claim 4 , wherein the balance valve body is provided with a ventilation hole, and the ventilation hole and the fixing hole form a ventilation channel.

6 . The battery box according to claim 4 , wherein the fixing structure is a snapping structure; and

the snapping structure is arranged to extend along a periphery of the ventilation hole toward the outer plate, and is snapped with the fixing hole on the outer plate.

7 . The battery box according to claim 6 , wherein the snapping structure has a strain value greater than 15%.

8 . The battery box according to claim 6 , wherein a width of the fixing hole is greater than a width of the snapping structure.

9 . The battery box according to claim 4 , wherein the fixing structure is a threaded structure; and

the threaded structure is arranged to extend along a periphery of the ventilation hole toward the outer plate, an inner threaded structure is correspondingly provided on an inner wall of the fixing hole on the outer plate, and the threaded structure cooperates with the inner threaded structure and is screwed into the fixing hole.

10 . The battery box according to claim 1 , further comprising a sealing gasket,

wherein the sealing gasket is arranged between the balance valve and the outer plate, and is configured for sealingly connecting the balance valve and the outer plate.

11 . The battery box according to claim 10 , wherein the sealing gasket has a compression amount of 40%-60%.

12 . The battery box according to claim 4 , wherein a ventilation groove is provided around the ventilation hole, on one side of the balance valve body away from the outer plate; and

the ventilation groove, the ventilation hole and the fixing hole together form a ventilation channel.

13 . The battery box according to claim 12 , wherein positioning protrusions are provided at intervals around the ventilation hole, and ventilation grooves are formed between the positioning protrusions.

14 . The battery box according to claim 4 , further comprising a balance film, wherein the balance film is arranged as covering the ventilation hole.

15 . The battery box according to claim 14 , wherein the balance film is of waterproof and air-ventilation composite material.

16 . The battery box according to claim 14 , wherein the sealing gasket is in shape of a ring, wherein a circumference of an inner ring of the ring is smaller than a circumference of an outer ring of the balance film, and a circumference of an outer ring of the ring is greater than the circumference of the outer ring of the balance film.

17 . The battery box according to claim 1 , further comprising a protective cover,

wherein the protective cover is arranged as covering one end of the balance valve away from the outer plate.

18 . The battery box according to claim 13 , further comprising a protective cover,

wherein the protective cover is arranged as covering the positioning protrusions.

19 . A battery, comprising a battery cell and the battery box according to claim 1 , wherein the battery cell is arranged in the battery box.

20 . An electrical device, comprising the battery according to claim 19 , which is configured to provide power.
