Abstract
A modular backup power housing consists of at least one module and a base. Additional modules may be stacked to accommodate a larger bank of power cells. Each module has a cuboid frame, multiple top rails and multiple bottom tracks. The top rails and the bottom tracks are attached to top and bottom surfaces of the cuboid frame respectively and mate with the top rails and bottom tracks of adjacent modules or the base. By virtue of the interlocking top rails and bottom tracks, the total height of the modular backup power housing is less than a conventional housing, and the strength and stability of the modular backup power housing is improved.
Claims17
A modular backup power housing to hold multiple power cells and comprising at least one module, where:
- each module comprises a top plate with an outer surface, a bottom plate with an outer surface, two side plates mounted between the top plate and the bottom plate to form a cuboid frame having a front and rear opening and multiple ventilating holes defined in the top, bottom and side plates, and multiple top rails and bottom tracks attached to the outer surfaces of the top plate and the bottom plate, respectively each top rail and each bottom track is U-shaped and has an open side, a transverse plate and two wing plates, wherein the top rails of one module are attached to the outer surface of the top plate with the open side toward the outer surface, and the bottom tracks are attached to the outer surface of the bottom plate with the open side away from the outer surface of the bottom plate such that the top rails on one module mesh with the bottom tracks on an adjacent module.
