Therefore, it is very necessary to conduct puncture tests on lithium batteries to evaluate their safety. In the field of lithium battery puncture test technology, traditional battery puncture test equipment often lacks effective safety protection measures. Due to the characteristics of lithium batteries themselves, when punctured, violent fire and explosion reactions are prone to occur, posing a serious threat to experimenters and surrounding equipment.

Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0029] Example

[0030] See also Figure 1-Figure 6As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a battery puncture test device with an explosion-proof mechanism, comprising a support base 1, a protective cover 2, a top beam 3, a puncture assembly 4 and a bearing assembly 5, wherein the top beam 3 is fixedly connected to the top of the support base 1;

[0031] The puncture assembly 4 is arranged on the top beam 3 for puncturing the lithium battery. The puncture assembly 4 includes a motor 41, a threaded rod 44, a push plate 45 and a puncture needle 46. The threaded rod 44 is fixedly mounted on the output end of the motor 41. One end of the threaded rod 44 is rotatably connected to the push plate 45 and is configured to drive the push plate 45 to move up and down. The puncture needle 46 is fixedly mounted on the bottom of the push plate 45 for puncturing the lithium battery.

[0032] The protective cover 2 is hingedly connected to both sides of the support base 1, and the protective cover 2 includes two symmetrically arranged cover doors 21, and the cover doors 21 are closed to wrap and isolate the lithium battery;

[0033] The carrying assembly 5 is fixed on the supporting base 1 and is located below the puncture assembly 4 to carry the lithium battery.

[0034] In this embodiment, specifically: a puncture head 47 is provided at the bottom of the puncture needle 46, and the puncture head 47 is a conical structure, and the tip of the puncture head 47 is vertically downward. The conical puncture head 47 at the bottom of the puncture needle 6 is designed, and its sharp tip can more easily puncture the outer shell of the lithium battery, reduce the resistance during the puncture process, and is also conducive to controlling the relatively small wound size formed during puncture.

[0035] In this embodiment, specifically: the puncture assembly 4 also includes a water pump 48 fixedly mounted on the top beam 3 , the output end of the water pump 48 is connected to a water spray head 49 , and the water outlet of the water spray head 49 faces the puncture head 47 .

[0036] In this embodiment, specifically: a guide rod 43 is slidably connected to the top beam 3 , and two ends of the guide rod 43 are fixedly connected to the lifting plate 42 and the pushing plate 45 respectively.

[0037] In this embodiment, specifically: the middle portion of the threaded rod 44 is threadedly connected to the top beam 3 .

[0038] In this embodiment, specifically: the bearing assembly 5 includes a bearing frame 51 fixed on the supporting base 1, and a working disk 52 is fixedly connected to the bearing frame 51. The working disk 52 is provided with a clearance hole 53, and the clearance hole 53 is arranged below the puncture needle 46.

[0039] In this embodiment, specifically: an observation window 23 is provided on the cover door 21, and the observation window 23 is at the same horizontal position as the bearing assembly 5. The cover door 21 can prevent the impact force, flame and splash generated by the explosion from spreading to the surroundings, thereby protecting the safety of the test personnel and surrounding equipment.

[0040] In this embodiment, specifically: an exhaust port 22 is opened on the cover door 21 , and the exhaust port 22 is arranged at the lower half of the cover door 21 .

[0041] In this embodiment, specifically: a handle 24 is fixedly connected to the cover door 21 .

[0042] Working principle or structural principle: When conducting a battery puncture test, the staff first connects the input end of the water pump to the water tank, and then places the lithium battery on the working disk 52 of the bearing assembly 5, ensuring that the lithium battery is located directly below the puncture needle 46, and starts the motor 41. The motor 41 drives the threaded rod 44 to rotate. The threaded rod 44 and the top beam 3 move the push plate 45 downward under the action of the threaded transmission. At this time, the guide rod 43 slides on the top beam 3 to provide guidance for the movement of the push plate 45, thereby driving the puncture needle 46 fixed at the bottom of the push plate 45 to approach the lithium battery and finally puncture the lithium battery;

[0043] During the preparation process, the staff closes the cover door 21 using the two handles 24. The cover door 21 is hingedly connected to the support base 1. After the cover door 21 is closed, the lithium battery is isolated inside, thereby providing protection and explosion-proofing for the puncture test. When conducting the puncture test, the staff observes the internal combustion situation through the observation window 23.

[0044] After the puncture is completed, the water pump 48 is started to spray water to the puncture head 47 through the water spray head 49 to cool down the temperature of the lithium battery to avoid secondary combustion of the lithium battery due to incomplete combustion, so as to protect the staff.

[0045] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and variations may be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, and that the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
