Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to charging racks, and more particularly to a battery contact type smart charging rack. Background Technology

[0002] During battery charging, the positive and negative charging wires need to be connected to the battery electrodes. Most existing charging methods involve manually arranging the batteries and using alligator clips to connect the positive and negative terminals. Connecting the positive and negative terminals according to the charging requirements is time-consuming and prone to clip slippage during charging, resulting in low work efficiency. Furthermore, manually arranging the batteries neatly leads to low productivity and is time-consuming and labor-intensive. In addition, battery displacement or contact failure during charging can easily occur, causing poor contact at the charging port and preventing charging. This method cannot achieve automated operation. Summary of the Invention

A lifting platform is used to raise and lower a flat plate, allowing the positive and negative terminals of the battery on the charging base to contact the charging contacts or electrode posts on the upper charging plate. Current flows into the charging contacts or electrode posts, connecting the battery electrodes and charging the battery, thus completing the charging process. The entire process eliminates the need for manual connection of the battery electrodes and charging contacts. Utilizing the contact-based conductivity between the battery electrodes and the charging contacts significantly improves charging efficiency and stability. Furthermore, a control circuit box is included, and the charging rack is controlled by a PLC in conjunction with a touchscreen. All parameters and operations are displayed on the human-machine interface. PLC control allows for accurate reading of current charging data and display of the charging current and voltage for each circuit. This battery contact-type intelligent charging rack enables automated charging and large-scale battery charging with high efficiency, and is suitable for various battery specifications.
