Abstract

A high voltage box includes a housing and a relay. The housing includes an upper housing and a lower housing connected to each other to form an accommodating space. The relay is provided in the accommodating space and includes a conducting strip in contact with the lower housing.

Claims (38)

1 . A high voltage box, comprising:

a housing, comprising an upper housing and a lower housing, the upper housing and the lower housing being connected to each other to form an accommodating space;

a relay, provided in the accommodating space, the relay comprising a conducting strip leading out a circuit inside the relay and connected with outside, and the conducting strip being in contact with the lower housing; and

at least one heat conduction metal block, wherein the at least one heat conduction metal block is provided in the accommodating space, and the at least one heat conduction metal block is connected to and in contact with both the conducting strip and the lower housing.

2 . The high voltage box according to claim 1 , further comprising:

a water cooling plate, wherein the water cooling plate is in contact with one side of the lower housing away from the relay, and the water cooling plate comprises:

at least one water cooling channel; and

a water inlet and a water outlet which are communicated with the at least one water cooling channel.

3 . The high voltage box according to claim 2 , further comprising:

a heat conduction pad and a heat-conduction insulating film, wherein the heat conduction pad is provided between the lower housing and the water cooling plate, and the heat-conduction insulating film is provided between the heat conduction pad and the water cooling plate.

4 . The high voltage box according to claim 2 , wherein the lower housing comprises a metal portion and a plastic portion which are integrally molded by injection.

5 . The high voltage box according to claim 4 , wherein one side of the metal portion away from the relay is exposed on a surface of the lower housing and is in contact with the water cooling plate.

6 . The high voltage box according to claim 4 , wherein one side of the metal portion close to the relay comprises an electric connection region, and the one electric connection region is exposed on a surface of the lower housing.

7 . The high voltage box according to claim 6 , wherein the electric connection region is of a convex structure.

8 . The high voltage box according to claim 6 , wherein a chamfered structure is provided at an edge of at least one side of the electric connection region, and the chamfered structure is provided with an insulating layer.

9 . A battery, comprising a high voltage box comprising:

a housing, comprising an upper housing and a lower housing, the upper housing and the lower housing being connected to each other to form an accommodating space;

a relay, provided in the accommodating space, the relay comprising a conducting strip leading out a circuit inside the relay and connected with outside, and the conducting strip being in contact with the lower housing; and

at least one heat conduction metal block, wherein the at least one heat conduction metal block is provided in the accommodating space, and the at least one heat conduction metal block is connected to and in contact with both the conducting strip and the lower housing.

10 . The battery according to claim 9 , wherein the high voltage box further comprises:

a water cooling plate, wherein the water cooling plate is in contact with one side of the lower housing away from the relay, and the water cooling plate comprises:

at least one water cooling channel; and

a water inlet and a water outlet which are communicated with the at least one water cooling channel.

11 . The battery according to claim 10 , wherein the high voltage box further comprises:

a heat conduction pad and a heat-conduction insulating film, wherein the heat conduction pad is provided between the lower housing and the water cooling plate, and the heat-conduction insulating film is provided between the heat conduction pad and the water cooling plate.

12 . The battery according to claim 10 , wherein the lower housing comprises a metal portion and a plastic portion which are integrally molded by injection.

13 . The battery according to claim 12 , wherein one side of the metal portion away from the relay is exposed on a surface of the lower housing and is in contact with the water cooling plate.

14 . The battery according to claim 12 , wherein one side of the metal portion close to the relay comprises an electric connection region, and the one electric connection region is exposed on a surface of the lower housing.

15 . The battery according to claim 14 , wherein the electric connection region is of a convex structure.

16 . The battery according to claim 14 , wherein a chamfered structure is provided at an edge of at least one side of the electric connection region, and the chamfered structure is provided with an insulating layer.

17 . An electric device, comprising a battery configured to supply electric energy to the electric device, the battery comprising a high voltage box that comprises:

a housing, comprising an upper housing and a lower housing, the upper housing and the lower housing being connected to each other to form an accommodating space;

a relay, provided in the accommodating space, the relay comprising a conducting strip leading out a circuit inside the relay and connected with outside, and the conducting strip being in contact with the lower housing; and

at least one heat conduction metal block, wherein the at least one heat conduction metal block is provided in the accommodating space, and the at least one heat conduction metal block is connected to and in contact with both the conducting strip and the lower housing.

18 . The electric device according to claim 17 , wherein the high voltage box further comprises:

a water cooling plate, wherein the water cooling plate is in contact with one side of the lower housing away from the relay, and the water cooling plate comprises:

at least one water cooling channel; and

a water inlet and a water outlet which are communicated with the at least one water cooling channel.
