Abstract

An energy storage device is provided in the disclosure. The energy storage device includes a case, multiple battery modules, at least one cooling assembly, and at least one heat insulation support. The multiple battery modules are accommodated in the case. The at least one cooling assembly is arranged between the multiple battery modules. The at least one heat insulation support is fixedly connected to the case. The at least one heat insulation support each defines a fixing groove configured to fix one of the at least one cooling assembly.

Claims (25)

1 . An energy storage device, comprising:

a case;

a plurality of battery modules, wherein the plurality of battery modules are accommodated in the case;

at least one cooling assembly, wherein the at least one cooling assembly is arranged between the plurality of battery modules; and

at least one heat insulation support fixedly connected to the case, wherein the at least one heat insulation support each defines a fixing groove configured to fix one of the at least one cooling assembly.

2 . The energy storage device of claim 1 , wherein the case comprises:

a baseboard, wherein the baseboard has a cross beam and a longitudinal beam perpendicular to the cross beam, the longitudinal beam is parallel to a length direction of the plurality of battery modules, and the cross beam is parallel to a width direction of the plurality of battery modules;

a side board, wherein the baseboard and the side board cooperatively form the case; and

wherein the at least one heat insulation support is arranged on the cross beam and the longitudinal beam.

3 . The energy storage device of claim 1 , wherein each of the at least one heat insulation support comprises:

a fixing segment located at one side of the cross beam and fixed to the longitudinal beam, wherein the fixing groove is defined on top of the fixing segment;

a limiting segment located at the other side of the cross beam; and

a connecting segment, wherein two ends of the connecting segment are connected to the fixing segment and the limiting segment respectively, and the connecting segment is supported by the cross beam.

4 . The energy storage device of claim 3 , wherein the fixing segment has a positioning protrusion at bottom of the fixing segment, the longitudinal beam defines a positioning hole, and the positioning protrusion is inserted into the positioning hole.

5 . The energy storage device of claim 3 , wherein the fixing groove has openings on one side of the fixing groove away from the connecting segment and on top of the fixing groove, for insertion of a cooling assembly.

6 . The energy storage device of claim 3 , wherein the fixing groove has chamfers at the openings.

7 . The energy storage device of claim 3 , wherein groove walls of the fixing groove on two sides of the cooling assembly are equal in thickness.

8 . The energy storage device of claim 3 , wherein the limiting segment comprises:

a main part located between the cross beam and the side board of the case, wherein two ends of the main part abut against the cross beam and the side board respectively, and the main part is perpendicular to the connecting segment;

a first reinforcing plate arranged on the main part, wherein the first reinforcing plate is connected to the connecting segment and coplanar with the connecting segment; and

two second reinforcing plates arranged on two sides of the first reinforcing plate respectively, wherein the two second reinforcing plates each are perpendicular to the first reinforcing plate, and the two reinforcing plates are arranged symmetrically with respect to the first reinforcing plate.

9 . The energy storage device of claim 1 , wherein the at least one cooling assembly each has at least one end in the length direction of the battery modules fixed in at least one fixing groove of at least one heat insulation support.

10 . The energy storage device of claim 9 , wherein the energy storage device comprises a plurality of cooling assemblies, each of the plurality of cooling assemblies is arranged between two adjacent battery modules, the energy storage device comprises a plurality of heat insulation supports, each of the plurality of cooling assemblies is provided with a heat insulation support on each of two ends of said each of the plurality of cooling assemblies in the length direction of the battery modules, and two ends of each of the plurality of cooling assemblies in the length direction of the battery modules are fixed in fixing grooves of heat insulation supports.

11 . The energy storage device of claim 9 , wherein the energy storage device comprises a plurality of cooling assemblies, a bus plate is arranged on the same end of the plurality of cooling assemblies in the length direction of the battery modules, and the plurality of cooling assemblies are connected to one another through the bus plate.

12 . The energy storage device of claim 3 , wherein the fixing segment, the connecting segment, and the limiting segment are integrally formed.
