Abstract

A heat exchange plate includes: a heat exchange plate body, having a cooling zone and a heating zone; and a packaging plate fixedly mounted on the heat exchange plate body, where an accommodating cavity is formed between the packaging plate and the heating zone of the heat exchange plate body, and a heating film is provided in the accommodating cavity.

Claims (44)

1 . A heat exchange plate for battery, comprising:

a heat exchange plate body, having a cooling zone and a heating zone; and

a packaging plate fixedly mounted on the heat exchange plate body, wherein an accommodating cavity is formed between the packaging plate and the heating zone of the heat exchange plate body, and

a heating film is provided in the accommodating cavity.

2 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , wherein:

the cooling zone and the heating zone of the heat exchange plate body do not overlap with each other.

3 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , wherein:

the packaging plate is welded to the heat exchange plate body in a manner that the heating film is closely attached to the heat exchange plate body.

4 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , wherein:

the packaging plate is attached to the heating film via a thermally conductive adhesive.

5 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 4 , wherein:

the thermally conductive adhesive is a thermally conductive silicone gel.

6 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , wherein:

the packaging plate is welded to the heat exchange plate body at a position avoiding the heating film.

7 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , wherein:

the heating film is in a thin sheet form, and the heating film is arranged serpentinely in a closed ring or a non-closed shape within the heating zone, and

the packaging plate comprises a peripheral welding portion and a central welding portion, wherein the peripheral welding portion surrounds the heating film at edge of the heating zone, and the central welding portion is formed in the heating zone at a position different from the peripheral welding portion and avoiding the heating film.

8 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , wherein:

a cooling flow path for a cooling medium to pass through is formed in the heat exchange plate body in the cooling zone.

9 . The heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , wherein:

both the heat exchange plate body and the packaging plate are made of aluminum.

10 . A battery, comprising at least one battery cell and at least one heat exchange plate, wherein each of the at least one heat exchange plate is the heat exchange plate according to claim 1 , and each of the at least one heat exchange plate is disposed at a position near one of the at least one battery cell.

11 . The battery according to claim 10 , wherein:

the heat exchange plate disposed between adjacent battery cells has a higher heat exchange capacity compared to the heat exchange plate disposed at an end side.

12 . The battery according to claim 10 , wherein:

in a case that two or more heat exchange plates are provided, a cooling flow path for a cooling medium to pass through formed in any one heat exchange plate body is connected in parallel to a cooling flow path for the cooling medium to pass through formed in another heat exchange plate body.

13 . The battery according to claim 10 , wherein:

each of the at least one heat exchange plate is disposed at a position near a first heat exchange surface of one of the at least one battery cell.

14 . The battery according to claim 13 , further comprising:

a second heat management plate disposed near a second heat exchange surface of the battery cell;

wherein the heat exchange plate is disposed near the first heat exchange surface in a manner that the cooling zone is farther from the second heat management plate than the heating zone.

15 . The battery according to claim 14 , wherein:

the cooling flow path in the second heat management plate is connected in parallel with the cooling flow path in the heat exchange plate.

16 . An electric apparatus, comprising the heat exchange plate according to claim 1 .

17 . A manufacturing method of battery, comprising:

providing at least one battery cell;

providing at least one heat exchange plate, wherein each of the at least one heat exchange plate is the heat exchange plate according to claim 1 ; and

positioning each of the at least one heat exchange plate near one of the at least one battery cell.

18 . The manufacturing method according to claim 17 , further comprising:

providing a second heat management plate; and

positioning the heat exchange plate near a first heat exchange surface of the battery and positioning the second heat management plate near a second heat exchange surface of the battery, wherein the cooling zone of the heat exchange plate is farther from the second heat management plate than the heating zone.

19 . The manufacturing method according to claim 17 , wherein providing the at least one heat exchange plate comprises:

providing a heating film that is closely attached to the heat exchange plate body and the packaging plate; and

welding the packaging plate to the heat exchange plate body at a position surrounding the heating film in the heating zone and at a position avoiding the heating film other than the position surrounding the heating film.
