Abstract

A container energy storage system is provided, including a container, a plurality of functional assemblies, and a splitting plate, wherein the splitting plate has a connecting port electrically connected to the functional assemblies. The container includes a hollow main body having an opening and two doors pivotally connected to the hollow main body. The functional assemblies are disposed in the hollow main body, and the splitting plate is disposed between the functional assemblies and the opening. When the doors are in a closed position, the doors cover the opening.

First claim

What is claimed is:

1. A container energy storage system, comprising:
a container, comprising:
a hollow main body, having an opening; and
two doors, pivotally connected to the hollow main body;

a plurality of functional assemblies disposed parallel and aligned with each other, and disposed in the hollow main body, wherein each of the functional assemblies further comprises a plurality of fixing mechanisms, the fixing mechanisms formed on at least two of a left side, a right side and a top of each of the functional assemblies, and each of the fixing mechanisms comprises:
a first nut;
a second nut;
a pole, having a screw thread, passing the first nut, a side wall of the respective one of the functional assemblies, and the second nut to be fixed on the respective one of the functional assemblies, wherein the side wall is situated between the first nut and the second nut; and
a contacting member, connected an end of the pole, wherein when the respective one of the functional assemblies is fixed in the hollow main body, the contacting member contacts an inner surface of the hollow main body; and

a splitting plate, disposed between the functional assemblies and the opening, and having a connecting port electrically connected to each of the functional assemblies, wherein when the doors are in a closed position, the doors cover the opening.

2. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the hollow main body has a cross section, and dimensions of a cross section of the hollow main body is substantially a same as that of the splitting plate.

3. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the splitting plate further comprises a water-resistant material.

4. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 further comprises a waterproof tape disposed between the splitting plate and the inner surface of the hollow main body.

5. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein when the doors are in the closed position, the splitting plate is substantially parallel to the doors.

6. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the functional assemblies are parallel to the splitting plate.

7. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the splitting plate has an entrance, and at least a part of each of the functional assemblies forms a passage, wherein the passage is aligned with the entrance.

8. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein the splitting plate further comprises a board and a hatch, the entrance is formed on the board, and the hatch is pivotally connected to the board to close the entrance.

9. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 7 , wherein at least a part of each of the functional assemblies comprise a first rack and a second rack, and the passage is formed between the first rack and the second rack.

10. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein a distance between the contacting member and the side wall is adjustable.

11. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the contacting member has a disc structure.

12. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 further comprises a plurality of wires, connecting adjacent ones of the functional assemblies.

13. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 further comprises a busbar, connecting each of the functional assemblies and the splitting plate.

14. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the splitting plate further comprises an input unit, electrically connected to each of the functional assemblies.

15. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the splitting plate further comprises a display unit, electrically connected to each of the functional assemblies for displaying the data and a condition of the respective one of the functional assemblies.

16. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein each of the functional assemblies comprises at least one of an energy storage member, a power converter, a fire box, a switchboard, a transformer, or a system controller.

17. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein walls of the hollow main body have no hole or holes.

18. The container energy storage system as claimed in claim 1 , wherein the container is an equivalent unit.
