上述电池装置中,第一板体与第二板体焊接连接,第一板体的焊接部内设有容料空间且容料空间的开口朝向第二板体,通过设置容料空间,减小了第一板体和第二板体的接触面积,相应的减小了焊接面积,同时,容料空间阻断了焊料朝向冷媒换热流道移动的路径,并且容料空间还可以储存多余的焊料,因此,本申请实施例提供的方案降低了焊料流进冷媒换热流道内造成堵塞的问题,进而降低了因冷媒换热流道堵塞而引起冷媒换热部件的功能异常和电池热管理失效的风险,提升了电池装置的可靠性。

箱体10用于容纳电池单体组件20,示例的,箱体10包括上盖11和箱本体12,上盖11与箱本体12围成容纳空间。
电池单体组件20包括多个电池单体21,示例的,电池单体组件20包括多个沿第一方向X依次排列的电池单体21,多组电池单体组件20沿第二方向Y依次排列,使得电池单体21呈阵列状排布,第二方向Y与第一方向X相交。可选的,第一方向X可为箱体10的长度方向,第二方向Y可为箱体10的宽度方向;在其他实施例中,第一方向X和/或第二方向Y也可为与箱体10的长度方向倾斜相交。

冷媒换热流道34供冷媒流动,例如,冷媒可以包括含氟冷却介质等。冷媒换热流道34可以通过管道等与压缩机、水泵、风机、冷凝器等其他换热设备连接,使冷媒流通至其他换热设备降温,将电池内部热量带出。
第一板体31具有焊接部312,焊接部312是指第一板体31上用于与第二板体32相焊接的部分,通过将焊接部312与第二板体32相焊接,能够密封冷媒换热流道34。可以理解,焊接部312至少包括第一板体31的外围部分,依据冷媒换热流道34的形状,焊接部312还可包括冷媒换热流道34的不同流道部之间的部分。
焊接部312内设有容料空间301,容料空间301的开口朝向第二板体32,容料空间301可通过孔、槽等结构形成。通过设置容料空间301,减小了第一板体31和第二板体32的接触面积,也减小了焊接部312的焊接面积;同时由于容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34相邻设置,容料空间301能够阻断焊料朝向冷媒换热流道34移动,并且,容料空间301还可以容纳部分焊料,进一步降低了焊料流进冷媒换热流道34内的风险。焊料是用于添加到焊缝、堆焊层和钎缝中的金属合金材料的总称,在本实施例中,焊料是第一板体31与第二板体32之间的焊接材料,第一板体31与第二板体32通过焊料固定连接。示例的,焊料包括第一板体31和/或第二板体32表面的材料,例如,焊料包括第一板体31和/或第二板体32表面的复合层。

请参照图4至图7,在一些实施例中,焊接部312包括多个间隔设置的连接区域3211,至少一个连接区域3211内设有容料空间301;在冷媒换热流道34的一侧,容料空间301将连接区域3211分隔为沿预设方向分布的第一区域32111和第二区域32112,第一区域32111位于冷媒换热流道34与容料空间301之间;容料空间301用于阻挡焊料从第二区域32112流向第一区域32111。
可选的,沿预设方向,第一区域32111的宽度小于或等于第二区域32112的宽度。
焊接部312包括多个间隔设置的连接区域3211,每个连接区域3211焊接连接于第二板体;冷媒换热流道34在相邻连接区域3211之间延伸,一个或多个连接区域3211内设有容料空间301。
“预设方向”是容料空间301将连接区域3211进行分隔的方向。
如图5、图6所示,示例的,在冷媒换热部件30的长度方向(X方向)上,在冷媒换热流道34的一侧,容料空间301将连接区域3211分隔为沿冷媒换热部件30的长度方向分布的第一区域32111和第二区域32112,第一区域32111位于冷媒换热流道34与容料空间301之间;可选的,沿冷媒换热部件30的长度方向,第一区域32111的宽度小于或等于第二区域32112的宽度,即容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34相邻设置;若第一区域3211的宽度小于第二区域32112宽度,则相较于连接区域3211的边缘,容料空间301更靠近冷媒换热流道34。
示例的,在冷媒换热部件30的宽度方向(Y方向)上,在冷媒换热流道34的一侧,容料空间301将连接区域3211分隔为沿冷媒换热部件30的宽度方向分布的第一区域32111和第二区域32112,第一区域32111位于冷媒换热流道34与容料空间301之间,第二区域32112位于容料空间301与冷媒换热部件的边缘之间;可选的,沿冷媒换热部件30的宽度方向,第一区域32111的宽度小于或等于第二区域32112的宽度,即容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34相邻设置;若第一区域3211的宽度小于第二区域32112宽度,则相较于连接区域3211的边缘,容料空间301更靠近冷媒换热流道34。
如图5、图7所示,冷媒换热流道34可为多种排布方式,且冷媒换热流道34形成了多个流道支路,在一些实施例中,相邻流道支路之间的连接区域3211较宽,增大了堵焊的风险。因此,流道支路之间的连接区域3211内也可设置容料空间301,在冷媒换热流道34的一侧,容料空间301将流道支路之间的连接区域3211分隔为第一区域32111和第二区域32112,可选的,沿着垂直于容料空间301的方向,第一区域32111的宽度小于或等于第二区域32112的宽度。
通过采用上述技术方案,容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34相邻设置,容料空间301能够阻挡第二区域32112的焊料朝向第一区域32111流动,以保护冷媒换热流道34。
可选的,沿预设方向,第一区域32111的宽度小于或等于第二区域32112的宽度,容料空间301和与其相邻的部分冷媒换热流道34之间的距离小于或等于该容料空间301至连接区域3211远离该部分冷媒换热流道34一侧的距离,能够使容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34之间的距离较小,防堵塞的效果较好。
请参照图4、图5,第一板体31朝向第二板体32的一面凹设有流道部311,流道部311与第二板体32合围成冷媒换热流道34。
流道部311凹设于第一板体31,在第一板体31和第二板体32焊接连接之后,流道部311与第二板体32共同围成了冷媒换热流道34。容料空间301也设于第一板体31,容料空间301和流道部311能够一同制作于第一板体31上,提升了制造效率,例如,容料空间301和流道部311通过冲压的方式制作于第一板体31上。
可选的,第一板体31设于第二板体32背离电池单体组件20的一侧,第二板体32可为平板,以便于与电池单体组件20贴合和换热。
通过采用上述技术方案,容料空间301和流道部311均制作于第一板体31上,第二板体32可为平板结构,冷媒换热部件30的制作方式简单方便,制作效率较高。
在其他实施例中,流道部311和容料空间301可设于第一板体31和第二板体32中的任一者,或者同时设于第一板体31和第二板体32。
在一些实施例中,容料空间301和与其相邻设置的部分冷媒换热流道34之间具有预设距离,该预设距离小于或等于35mm。
由于容料空间301的作用避免冷媒换热流道34堵塞,本申请实施例设置容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34之间的预设距离小于或等于35mm,以起到良好的防堵塞效果。例如,预设距离为3mm、5mm、15mm、20mm、30mm、35mm等;当容料空间301有多个时,容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34之间的距离可不相等,只要满足上述范围即可。
当冷媒换热流道34一侧的焊接宽度大于35mm时,容易发生堵焊的问题。本申请实施例设置冷媒换热流道34与容料空间301之间的预设距离小于或等于35mm,能够有效降低冷媒换热流道34堵塞的风险。
在一些实施例中,预设距离的范围为5mm~20mm。例如,预设距离为5mm、10mm、15mm、20mm等。容料空间301与冷媒换热流道34之间的预设距离可依据冷媒换热流道34的宽度、冷媒换热流道34一侧的焊接面积等因素确定,以降低堵焊的风险。
通过设置预设距离大于或等于5mm,降低容气空间与冷媒换热流道34直接连通的风险,降低了冷媒换热部件30的制造难度;通过设置预设距离小于或等于20mm,能够更好地降低堵焊风险。
请参照图4至图8,在一些实施例中,焊接部312内设有容料槽3122,容料槽3122的内部形成容料空间301。
容料槽3122凹设于第一板体31朝向第二板体32的一面,容料槽3122可为条形、弧形等形状,容料槽3122也可与冷媒换热流道34的至少部分仿形设置,从而容料槽3122可作为假流道。容料槽3122的内部形成容料空间301,容料槽3122的开口朝向第二板体32,以容纳第一板体31和第二板体32之间多余的焊料。另外,容料槽3122可通过冲压等方式进行制作,不仅能够容纳焊料,还能够提升冷媒换热部件30的结构强度。
通过采用上述技术方案,通过在第一板体31的焊接部312内设置容料槽3122,不仅能够利用容料槽3122隔开冷媒换热流道34和宽度较大的焊接区域,降低流道堵焊的风险,还能够利用容料槽3122提升第一板体31的结构强度,降低了第一板体31受外力作用后发生损坏的风险。
请参照图5,在一些实施例中,容料槽3122呈条形,容料槽3122沿着与其相邻的部分冷媒换热流道34延伸。
容料槽3122成条形,即容料槽3122的长度尺寸大于容料槽3122的宽度尺寸。容料槽3122沿着冷媒换热流道34延伸,从而容料槽3122所形成的容料空间301也沿着冷媒换热流道34延伸。如图5所示,容料槽3122的数量为多个,多个容料槽3122均为条形。在冷媒换热流道34的外侧,每条容料槽3122均沿着冷媒换热流道34延伸且多条容料槽3122沿着冷媒换热流道34间隔设置,降低了冷媒换热流道34堵焊的风险。
通过采用上述技术方案,容料槽3122能够减小焊接部312的焊接面积,容料槽3122沿着冷媒换热流道34延伸,至少在其长度范围内降低了冷媒换热流道34堵焊的风险,防堵焊的效果较好。
请继续参照图5,在一些实施例中,容料槽3122的宽度为5mm~20mm,和/或,容料槽3122的深度为2mm~3mm。
容料槽3122也可称为假流道,容料槽3122中不需要流通冷媒。容料槽3122的宽度为5mm~20mm,例如,容料槽3122的宽度可为5mm、8mm、10mm、15mm、20mm等。容料槽3122的宽度可与冷媒换热流道34的宽度相等,也可不等,在此不作限制。容料槽3122的宽度大于或等于5mm,可以使得容料槽3122能够容纳较多的焊料以及有效隔开冷媒换热流道34和焊接宽度较大的区域;容料槽3122的宽度小于或等于20mm,可以适应冷媒换热部件30的整体尺寸。
容料槽3122的深度为2mm、2.5mm、2.6mm、2.7mm、2.8mm、3mm等。通过设置容料槽3122的深度大于或等于2mm,可以使得容料槽3122能够容纳较多的焊料;容料槽3122的深度小于或等于3mm,可以适应冷媒换热部件30的整体尺寸,避免冷媒换热部件30的厚度过大而占用过多的空间。
在其他实施例中,容料槽3122的宽度也可为其他范围,以适应冷媒换热部件30的尺寸和防堵焊的需求。
通过采用上述技术方案,容料槽3122的尺寸能够适应防堵焊的要求且匹配冷媒换热部件30的尺寸,易于实现。
在一些实施例中,冷媒换热流道34的宽度为5mm~20mm,和/或,冷媒换热流道34的深度为2mm~3mm。
冷媒换热流道34的宽度是指冷媒换热流道34中冷媒流通路径上的宽度,冷媒换热流道34的宽度影响冷媒换热流道34的过流截面面积。在一些实施例中,冷媒换热流道34的宽度W1可为5mm、8mm、10mm、15mm、20mm等。冷媒换热流道34的宽度大于或等于5mm,可以使得冷媒换热流道34具有足够流量的冷媒;冷媒换热流道34的宽度小于或等于20mm,可以使冷媒的工作压力不会过大而影响冷媒换热部件30的结构可靠性。
冷媒换热流道34的深度可为2mm、2.5mm、2.7mm、3mm等。通过设置冷媒换热流道34的深度大于或等于2mm,可以使得冷媒换热流道34具有足够流量的冷媒;冷媒换热流道34的深度小于或等于3mm,可以使冷媒的工作压力不会过大而影响冷媒换热部件30的结构可靠性。
若流道部311和容料槽3122均凹设于第一板体31面向第二板体32的一面,流道部311和容料槽3122通过冲压的方式制作在第一板体31上,冷媒换热流道34和容料槽3122的底部会相对于第一板体31凸出设置,通过设置冷媒换热流道34和容料槽3122的深度小于或等于3mm,能够控制冷媒换热流道34和容料槽3122凸出的高度,减小冷媒换热部件30的整体尺寸,适应安装的要求。
通过设置冷媒换热流道34满足上述条件,能够使冷媒换热流道34具有足够流量的冷媒且工作压力不会过大。另外,容料槽3122的宽度可与冷媒换热流道34的宽度相等或相近,容料槽3122的深度可与冷媒换热流道34的深度相等或相近,从而容料槽3122方便制造,占用的空间较小。
请参照图9至图11,在一些实施例中,焊接部312内设有通孔3123,通孔3123的内部形成容料空间301。
通孔3123是沿第一板体31的厚度方向贯穿第一板体31的孔,示例的,如图9所示,通孔3123为圆孔;如图10和图11所示,通孔3123为长条孔,例如通孔3123可为狭缝状的长条孔。
通孔3123的数量可为一个或多个,示例的,通孔3123的数量有多个,多个通孔3123间隔分布于冷媒换热流道34的外侧以及冷媒换热流道34中距离较远的流道部311之间。
通过在焊接部312内设置通孔3123,通孔3123能够隔开冷媒换热流道34与焊接宽度较大的焊接区域,并且,通孔3123能够容纳和/或排出多余的焊料,进一步降低了堵焊的风险。另外,通孔3123还能够在焊接过程中排出第一板体31和第二板体32之间的气体,起到了防困气的效果。
需要注意的是,在一些实施例中,通孔3123能够会被焊料填充或部分填充,这并不影响通孔3123在焊接过程中起到了防堵焊的效果。
如图9所示,在一些实施例中,通孔3123为圆形,通孔3123的孔径为3mm~15mm。
通孔3123为圆形的通孔3123,通孔3123的孔径可相等,也可不等,例如,在第一板体31和第二板体32连接面积较大的区域设置孔径较大的通孔3123。
通孔3123的孔径可为3mm、5mm、6mm、8mm、10mm、15mm等。通孔3123的孔径大于或等于3mm,以便于利用通孔3123隔开冷媒换热流道34和宽度较大的焊接区域;通孔3123的孔径小于或等于15mm,一方面,通孔3123的尺寸能够适应冷媒换热部件30的尺寸,另一方面,通孔3123对冷媒换热部件30的结构强度的影响较小。
在其他实施例中,通孔3123也可为方形、椭圆形等其他形状。
请参照图5至图11,在一些实施例中,焊接部312内设有容料槽3122和通孔3123中的至少一种,容料槽3122和/或通孔3123内形成容料空间301。
具体的,容料空间301的数量可为多个,容料空间301可由容料槽3122或通孔3123形成。例如,由于冷媒换热部件30的边缘区域往往需要与底护板或箱体10接触,可能没有足够的空间来设置容料槽3122,这种情况可以在一定区域内设置通孔3123,阻止焊料的流动,在空间允许时优先设置容料槽3122,空间不够时设置通孔3123加以辅助;在焊接宽度较宽区域设置条形的通孔3123(或称槽孔),阻断焊料的流动。
通过采用上述技术方案,冷媒换热部件30可依据其安装要求、尺寸等条件来设置容料槽3122和/或通孔3123,并可组合使用容料槽3122和通孔3123,以达到防堵焊的效果。
请参照图4至图11,在一些实施例中,第一板体31具有流道区域31a以及设于流道区域31a外侧的外围区域31b,冷媒换热流道34位于流道区域31a,焊接部312同时设于流道区域31a和外围区域31b;容料空间301包括第一容料空间3011,第一容料空间3011设于外围区域31b。
流道区域31a是冷媒换热流道34所在的区域,也是一个完整的区域,为方便示意,图5中用一圈虚线示意了流道区域31a,其中,流道入口和流道出口可在流道区域31a内,也可在流道区域31a外,本申请对此不作限制;图5还用一圈虚线示意了焊接部312的边缘,其中,焊接部312的边缘可靠近第一板体31的边缘,也可与第一板体31的边缘重合,本申请对此不作限制。
外围区域31b是设于流道区域31a外侧的区域,焊接部312同时设于流道区域31a和外围区域31b,焊接部312是指第一板体31上用于与第二板体32上焊接的部位,焊接部312处于流道区域31a内的部分能够隔开冷媒换热流道34的不同流道部311,焊接部312处于外围区域31b内的部分能够将第一板体31和第二板体32密封连接。
容料空间301包括设于外围区域31b的第一容料空间3011,第一容料空间3011的数量可为一个或多个,例如,多个第一容料空间3011沿着流道区域31a的边缘延伸。
容料空间301包括设于外围区域31b的第一容料空间3011,由于外围区域31b的焊接宽度较宽,第一容料空间3011设于外围区域31b,能够将外围区域31b焊接宽度较宽的部分与冷媒换热流道34隔开,降低了冷媒换热流道34堵焊的风险。
在一些实施例中,沿第一板体31的长度方向,第一容料空间3011设于第一板体31的一侧,第一容料空间3011至冷媒换热流道34的距离小于第一容料空间3011至第一板体31边缘的距离;和/或,沿第一板体31的宽度方向,第一容料空间3011设于第一板体31的一侧,第一容料空间3011至冷媒换热流道34的距离小于第一容料空间3011至第一板体31边缘的距离。
请参照图5,第一板体31的长度方向为X方向,第一板体31的宽度方向为Y方向。沿第一板体31的长度方向,第一容料空间3011设于第一板体31的一侧,第一容料空间3011与冷媒换热流道34之间的距离小于第一容料空间3011至第一板体31边缘的距离,即第一容料空间3011更靠近冷媒换热流道34。
同理,沿第一板体31的宽度方向,第一容料空间3011设于第一板体31的一侧,第一容料空间3011至冷媒换热流道34的距离小于第一容料空间3011至第一板体31边缘的距离,即第一容料空间3011更靠近冷媒换热流道34。
通过采用上述技术方案,第一容料空间3011与冷媒换热流道34的距离较近,能够隔开冷媒换热流道34与换板外围焊接宽度较大的区域,防堵焊的效果较好。
在一些实施例中,第一容料空间3011沿着流道区域31a的边缘延伸;和/或,第一容料空间3011的数量为多个,多个第一容料空间3011沿着流道区域31a的边缘排列设置。
第一容料空间3011可为圆形、方形、椭圆形、长条形等。可选的,如图5、图11所示,第一容料空间3011由条形的容料槽3122或条形通孔3123形成,第一容料空间3011为条形,且第一容料空间3011沿着流道区域31a的边缘延伸。可选的,如图5至图9所示,多个第一容料空间3011沿着流道区域31a的边缘排列设置。
通过采用上述技术方案,第一容料空间3011能够沿着冷媒换热流道34的延伸方向设置,以适应冷媒换热流道34的长度,从而能够为冷媒换热流道34提供较为全面的防堵焊效果。
请继续参照图5至图11,在一些实施例中,容料空间301还包括一个或多个第二容料空间3012,第二容料空间3012设于流道区域31a内。
冷媒换热流道34可为多种排布方式,且冷媒换热流道34形成了多个流道支路,在一些实施例中,相邻流道支路之间的距离较远,增大了堵焊的风险。为此,本申请实施例在流道区域31a内设置一个或多个第二容料空间3012,能够阻断多余的焊料朝向冷媒换热流道34的内部流动,同样起到了防堵焊的效果。
请参照图4、图5,在一些实施例中,冷媒换热流道34包括多个并联设置的分流道341,分流道341包括进流支流道3411、回流支流道3412和连接于进流支流道3411与回流支流道3412之间的多个子流道3413,多个子流道3413依次相接,子流道3413沿第一方向延伸且多个子流道3413沿第二方向排列设置,第二方向与第一方向相交;进流支流道3411和/或回流支流道3412与第二容料空间3012相邻设置。
多个分流道341并联设置,从而多个分流道341能够分别独立地供冷媒循环流动。冷媒换热部件30具有流道入口和流道出口,每个分流道341均与流道入口和流道出口相连通。在一些实施例中,冷媒换热部件30还包括换热接头33,换热接头33连接于第一板体31和第二板体32中的至少一者,换热接头33与流道入口、流道出口连通,换热接头33用于将冷媒换热部件30连接于其他换热设备,以使冷媒流入和流出。
每个分流道341包括进流支流道3411、回流支流道3412和多个子流道3413,从流道入口进入冷媒换热部件30的冷媒,从进流支流道3411依次流过多个子流道3413,然后进入回流支流道3412流向流道出口。多个子流道3413并排设置,对电池单体组件20的换热效果较好;子流道3413沿第一方向延伸且多个子流道3413沿第二方向排列设置,第一方向可为电池单体组件20中多个电池单体21排列的方向,第一方向为图中X方向,第二方向可与第一方向垂直,第二方向为图中Y方向。可选的,子流道3413还可包括多条并列的子流道3413,以提升换热的可靠性和增大换热面积。由于子流道3413的排布较为密集,子流道3413发生堵焊的风险较小。
进流支流道34113411、回流支流道3412间隔设置于流道区域31a,支流道之间可能存在焊接宽度大的区域,为此,本申请设置第二容料空间3012与进流支流道3411和/或回流支流道3412相邻设置,以降低进流支流道3411和/或回流支流道3412发生堵焊的风险;另外,进流支流道34113411、回流支流道3412若发生堵焊,会影响整个分流道341,降低了热管理的可靠性,通过设置与进流支流道34113411、回流支流道3412相邻设置的第二容料空间3012,能够优先对冷媒换热流道34的关键部分进行保护,提高了冷媒换热部件30的可靠性。
在一些实施例中,至少两个相邻的进流支流道3411之间设有多个第二容料空间3012;和/或,进流支流道3411与回流支流道3412之间设有多个第二容料空间3012。
如图4和图5所示,第二容料空间3012的数量可为多个,例如,两个相邻的进流支流道3411之间具有较宽的焊接宽度,则在二者之间设置多个第二容料空间3012,每个第二容料空间3012与至少一条进流支流道3411相邻设置。
在冷媒流动的过程中,冷媒与电池单体21进行换热,可能会使回流支流道3412内的冷媒具有较高的温度,因此,本申请实施例将回流支流道3412设于流道区域31a的边缘位置。可选的,至少一条回流支流道3412可与电池单体组件20错开设置。
由于回流支流道3412设于流道区域31a的边缘位置,进流支流道3411与回流支流道3412之间可能存在焊接宽度较宽的区域,则在二者之间设置多个第二容料空间3012,每个第二容料空间3012与进流支流道3411和/或回流支流道3412相邻设置。
通过采用上述技术方案,冷媒换热部件30可灵活设置多个第二容料空间3012,来降低进流支流道3411与回流支流道3412发生堵焊的风险,提升了冷媒换热部件30的焊接良率和可靠性。
如图4和图5所示,在一些实施例中,冷媒换热流道34还包括主进流道342、主回流道343,主进流道342与多个进流支流道3411相连通,主回流道343与多个回流支流道3412相连通;主进流道342和/或主回流道343与第二容料空间3012相邻设置。
主进流道342能够将冷媒分流至多个进流支流道3411,主回流道343能够汇集多个回流支流道3412流出的冷媒,因此,主进流道342和主回流道343较为关键,若发生堵焊,将使整个冷媒换热部件30的功能失效。为此,本申请实施例设置了与主进流道342和/或主回流道343相邻设置的第二容料空间3012,以降低主进流道342和/或主回流道343发生堵焊的风险,提高了冷媒换热部件30的焊接良率和可靠性。
请参照图8,图8是冷媒换热部件30局部结构的剖视示意图,具体为冷媒换热部件30沿着冷媒换热流道34和容料空间301剖开的剖视示意图。在一些实施例中,第一板体31包括本体部313和设于本体部313表面的复合层314,复合层314作为焊料与第二板体32进行焊接,容料空间301能够容纳焊料。
本体部313可为金属材质,复合层314的熔点低于本体部313的熔点,例如,复合层314可为铝层。第一板体31和第二板体32可通过钎焊的方式进行焊接。在焊接时,先在第一板体31的表面涂布钎层,然后将第一板体31和第二板体32层叠并焊接,复合层314作为焊料,能够将第一板体31和第二板体32固定连接。
容料空间301能够容纳部分多余的焊料,以阻断焊料朝向冷媒换热流道34内流动,降低了冷媒换热流道34发生堵焊的风险。
在其他实施例中,第二板体32的表面也可设有复合层314,第二板体32上的复合层314也可作为焊料,容料空间301同样能够容纳多余的焊料。
在其他实施例中,第一板体31和第二板体32也可采用其他焊料进行焊接,则容纳空间同样能够容纳焊料。

电池装置100还包括底护板40,底护板40连接于冷媒换热部件30背离箱本体12的一侧,底护板能够对冷媒换热部件30起到防护作用,降低用电装置在使用过程中对冷媒换热部件30的碰撞力,从而冷媒换热部件30不易发生碰撞变形的问题。
在其他实施例中,冷媒换热部件30也可设于箱本体12的内部或外部,只要能与电池单体组件20换热即可。
在一些实施例中,冷媒换热流道内的冷媒为相变工质。
冷媒可为相变工质,在冷媒的流动过程中,冷媒可为气液两相态。冷媒的种类可以为R134A(四氟乙烷),R1234YF(四氟丙烯),R1233ZD(一氯三氟丙烯)等。
