Abstract

The present application discloses a thermal protection component, a battery, and an electric apparatus. The thermal protection component comprises a pipe body and joints; a flow channel for a cooling medium to flow is formed in the pipe body; a clamping component is provided on an inner wall of each joint; the clamping component is provided with a plurality of clamping end portions; the end portions of the pipe body are inserted into the joints; each clamping end portion extends into the interior of the pipe body; and a part of the pipe wall of the pipe body is inserted between each clamping end portion and the inner wall of the joint.

Claims (20)

1 . A thermal protection component for a battery, comprising:

a pipe provided with a flow channel for a cooling medium to flow in its interior; and

a joint provided with a snap-in member on an inner wall thereof,

wherein the snap-in member is provided with a plurality of snap-in ends, an end of the pipe is inserted into the joint, each snap-in end extends to the interior of the pipe, and part of a pipe wall of the pipe is inserted between the snap-in ends and the inner wall of the joint.

2 . The thermal protection component according to claim 1 , wherein the snap-in member comprises a plurality of claws arranged to be spaced apart along a periphery direction of the joint, one end of each claw is connected to the inner wall of the joint, and the other end of each claw protrudes from the inner wall of the joint to form the snap-in end.

3 . The thermal protection component according to claim 2 , wherein the joint has a first end and a second end, a step surface is formed on the inner wall of the joint toward the first end, the first end of the joint is open, the end of the pipe is inserted into an interior of the joint from the first end of the joint, and an end surface of the end of the pipe abuts against the step surface.

4 . The thermal protection component according to claim 3 , wherein one end of each claw is connected to the inner wall of the joint between the step surface and the second end, the other end of each claw protrudes from the step surface to form the snap-in end, and the snap-in end corresponds to the inner wall of the joint between the step surface and the first end.

5 . The thermal protection component according to claim 3 , wherein a plurality of bumps are spaced on the step surface.

6 . The thermal protection component according to claim 5 , wherein one of the bumps is provided on the step surface at a position between each claw and the inner wall of the joint.

7 . The thermal protection component according to claim 3 , wherein the joint is provided with at least one connecting portion communicated with the interior of the joint at the second end of the joint, or communicated with the interior of the joint at a side wall of the joint between the first end and the second end.

8 . The thermal protection component according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe is configured as a flat pipe.

9 . The thermal protection component according to claim 1 , wherein at least one reinforcing rib is provided in the interior of the pipe and extends along an axial direction of the pipe, the interior of the pipe is separated by the reinforcing rib to form at least two flow channels arranged to be spaced apart along a radial direction of the pipe.

10 . The thermal protection component according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe is configured as a flexible pipe.

11 . The thermal protection component according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe is made of plastic material.

12 . The thermal protection component according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe and the joint is in an interference fit.

13 . The thermal protection component according to claim 1 , wherein the pipe and the joint are laser welded and fixed to each other.

14 . A battery comprising:

the thermal protection component according to claim 1 ; and

a battery cell, with the thermal protection component disposed above the battery cell, wherein the thermal protection component is used to adjust a temperature of the battery cell and to be fused so the cooling medium is sprayed at a fire point when there is an open flame in the battery cell.

15 . An electric apparatus, comprising the battery of claim 14 for supplying electrical energy.
