Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the technical field of anti-theft design methods for automotive batteries, specifically an anti-theft design method for automotive batteries. Background Technology

[0002] New energy vehicles refer to automobiles that use unconventional fuels as their power source and integrate advanced technologies in vehicle power control and drive, resulting in vehicles with advanced technical principles, new technologies, and new structures. New energy commercial vehicles place the electronic control components, one of the "three major components" of the vehicle, under the cab, occupying the space traditionally used for battery installation in commercial vehicles. Therefore, manufacturers of new energy commercial vehicles install the batteries at the rear of the vehicle. During battery installation, manufacturers only use bolts to position the battery, and it can be removed using ordinary tools, making it prone to theft. Therefore, we propose an anti-theft design method for automotive batteries to solve this problem. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide an anti-theft design method for automotive batteries to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an anti-theft design method for automobile batteries, comprising an L-shaped plate, a support plate provided on the inner side of the L-shaped plate, the top surface of the inner side of the L-shaped plate being fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support plate, a battery placed on the bottom surface of the inner side of the L-shaped plate, a clamping mechanism provided in front of the battery, and an anti-theft mechanism provided below the L-shaped plate.

[0005] The anti-theft mechanism includes an anti-theft box with an open top surface. The top surface of the anti-theft box is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of an L-shaped plate. An internal partition is provided within the anti-theft box, with its outer surface fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box. Two through holes are formed on the bottom surface of the L-shaped plate, and L-shaped rocker arms are threaded through both holes, one vertically and one vertically. The outer surface of each L-shaped rocker arm is hinged to the inner bottom surface of the L-shaped plate. U-shaped grippers are positioned above each of the two L-shaped rocker arms, with their bottom surfaces fixedly connected to the top surfaces of the two L-shaped rocker arms. The inner surfaces of both U-shaped grippers are engaged with the outer surface of the battery. A connecting rod is hinged to the bottom surface of the left-side L-shaped rocker arm. A sliding rod is installed above the partition. The outer surface of the bottom end of the sliding rod slides through the upper surface of the partition and extends to the bottom of the partition. The bottom surface of the connecting rod is hinged to the top surface of the sliding rod. A stop block with a triangular cross-section is fixedly connected to the lower left end of the sliding rod. A telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the left side inside the anti-theft box. The telescopic rod is located below the partition. A T-shaped plate is fixedly connected to the right end of the telescopic rod's output rod. The outer surface of the T-shaped plate engages with the top surface of the stop block. By setting up the sliding rod, the stop block, and the T-shaped plate, the L-shaped rocker cannot open outward when there is no electrical signal input, and the battery cannot be removed. The anti-theft measures for car batteries include the following steps:

[0006] 1) Place the battery between the two L-shaped rockers from top to bottom, with the left and right end faces of the battery in contact with the outer surfaces of the two L-shaped rockers respectively, thereby limiting the left and right positions of the battery;

[0007] 2) The bottom surface of the battery is pressed into contact with the inner bottom surfaces of the two L-shaped rockers, the L-shaped rockers are deflected, the inner side of the U-shaped gripper is engaged with the outer surface of the battery, and the inner sides of the two U-shaped grippers are engaged with the outer surface of the battery, thereby limiting the upper and lower positions of the battery.

[0008] 3) When the L-shaped rocker deflects, it causes the connecting rod to deflect as well. The bottom end of the connecting rod moves downward, causing the slide rod to slide downward. The slide rod causes the stop block to move downward, and the bottom surface of the stop block presses against the outer surface of the T-shaped plate, causing the slide rod to deform. This causes the left side of the stop block to slide along the outer surface of the T-shaped plate. When the stop block slides to the bottom, the top surface of the stop block engages with the outer surface of the T-shaped plate. At this point, the L-shaped rocker cannot rotate, thus locking the battery.

[0009] Preferably, the rear end face of the L-shaped plate has two mounting holes, which can be used to fix the anti-theft device of the car battery inside the car with suitable bolts. The two mounting holes also make the installation of the device more stable.

[0010] Preferably, the rear end face of the L-shaped plate has a through hole, and a grid plate is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole. The grid plate facilitates the ventilation of the battery and allows the battery to dissipate heat through the gaps inside the grid plate.

[0011] Preferably, the clamping mechanism includes a pressure plate, a screw is provided in front of the support plate, the outer surface of the rear end of the screw threaded through the front end face of the support plate and extends to the rear end of the support plate, a guide rod is provided in front of the support plate, the outer surface of the rear end of the guide rod slidably through the front end face of the support plate and extends to the rear end of the support plate, the rear end face of the screw is rotatably connected to the front of the pressure plate through a bearing seat, the rear end face of the guide rod is fixedly connected to the front of the pressure plate, a gasket is provided behind the pressure plate, the front of the gasket is fixedly connected to the back of the pressure plate, the back of the gasket is in contact with the front of the battery, and the back of the battery is in contact with the inner rear of the L-shaped plate. The distance of the pressure plate can be freely adjusted for batteries of different widths, so that the front and rear of the battery are limited, improving the practicality of the device and keeping the battery stable during vehicle operation.

[0012] Preferably, a handle is provided at the front of the screw, and the back of the handle is fixedly connected to the front of the screw, making it easier and more convenient to adjust the screw rotation.

[0013] Preferably, in step 3, the telescopic rod remains in an extended state when it is not powered, so that the locking device is always effective when the telescopic rod is not powered.

[0014] Preferably, when the telescopic rod is retracted to its shortest length, the right end face of the T-shaped plate is located to the left of the stop block, so that when the telescopic rod is energized, the device unlocks, thereby unlocking the battery.

[0015] Preferably, the upper surface of the T-shaped plate is slidably connected to the bottom surface of the partition, and the bottom surface of the T-shaped plate is slidably connected to the bottom surface inside the anti-theft box, to prevent the L-shaped rocker from flipping under large external torque, causing the baffle to lift the T-shaped plate and damage the telescopic rod.

[0016] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:

[0017] 1) This anti-theft design method for automobile batteries, by setting up a sliding bar, a stop block and a T-shaped plate, ensures that the L-shaped rocker cannot open outward when there is no electrical signal input, and the battery cannot be removed;

[0018] 2) This anti-theft design method for automotive batteries uses screws and pressure plates to limit the front and rear of the battery, thus keeping the battery stable while the vehicle is in motion.

[0019] 3) This anti-theft design method for car batteries uses a telescopic rod with a self-locking function to prevent battery theft and facilitate unlocking. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The technical solutions of the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present invention, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0027] Please see Figures 1-5This invention provides a technical solution: an anti-theft design method for automotive batteries, comprising an L-shaped plate 1, a through hole 9 on the rear end face of the L-shaped plate 1, a grid plate 8 fixedly connected to the inner wall of the through hole 9, two mounting holes 7 on the rear end face of the L-shaped plate 1, a support plate 3 on the inner side of the L-shaped plate 1, the top surface of the inner side of the L-shaped plate 1 fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the support plate 3, a battery 6 placed on the bottom surface of the inner side of the L-shaped plate 1, a clamping mechanism 2 in front of the battery 6, the clamping mechanism 2 including a pressure plate 204, a screw 207 in front of the support plate 3, a handle 4 in front of the screw 207, the back of the handle 4 fixedly connected to the front of the screw 207, and the screw 207 threaded through the front end face of the support plate 3 on its outer surface at the rear end. Extending to the rear of the support plate 3, a guide rod 205 is provided at the front of the support plate 3. The outer surface of the rear end of the guide rod 205 slides through the front end face of the support plate 3 and extends to the rear of the support plate 3. The rear end face of the screw 207 is rotatably connected to the front of the pressure plate 204 through the bearing seat. The rear end face of the guide rod 205 is fixedly connected to the front of the pressure plate 204. A gasket 206 is provided behind the pressure plate 204. The front of the gasket 206 is fixedly connected to the back of the pressure plate 204. By setting the screw 207 and the pressure plate 204, the battery 6 is limited in front and rear, so that the battery 6 remains stable during the driving process in the vehicle. The back of the gasket 206 is in contact with the front of the battery 6. The back of the battery 6 is in contact with the inner rear of the L-shaped plate 1. An anti-theft mechanism 5 is provided below the L-shaped plate 1.

[0028] The anti-theft mechanism 5 includes an anti-theft box 507, with an open top surface. The top surface of the anti-theft box 507 is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the L-shaped plate 1. An internal partition 502 is provided inside the anti-theft box 507, with its outer surface fixedly connected to the inner wall of the box. Two through holes 508 are formed on the bottom surface of the L-shaped plate 1, and L-shaped rocker arms 509 are threaded through both holes 508 from top to bottom. The outer surface of the L-shaped rocker arms 509 is hinged to the inner bottom surface of the L-shaped plate 1. U-shaped grippers 510 are installed above each of the two U-shaped grippers 510. The bottom surfaces of the two U-shaped grippers 510 are fixedly connected to the top surfaces of the two L-shaped rocker arms 509 respectively. The inner surfaces of the two U-shaped grippers 510 are snapped into the outer surfaces of the battery 6. A connecting rod 501 is hinged to the bottom surface of the left L-shaped rocker arm 509. A sliding rod 506 is installed above the partition 502. The outer surface of the bottom end of the sliding rod 506 slides through the upper surface of the partition 502 and extends to the bottom of the partition 502. The bottom surface of the connecting rod 501 is hinged to the top surface of the sliding rod 506. A stop block 505 is fixedly connected to the lower left end face of the slide rod 506. The stop block 505 has a triangular cross-section. A telescopic rod 503 is fixedly connected to the left side inside the anti-theft box 507. The telescopic rod 503 is located below the partition 502. A T-shaped plate 504 is fixedly connected to the right end face of the output rod of the telescopic rod 503. The outer surface of the T-shaped plate 504 is engaged with the top surface of the stop block 505. By setting the slide rod 506, the stop block 505, and the T-shaped plate 504, the telescopic rod 503 can tilt in an L-shape when there is no electrical signal input. When plate 509 cannot open outwards, battery 6 cannot be removed. When telescopic rod 503 is retracted to its shortest position, the right end face of T-shaped plate 504 is located to the left of stop block 505. The upper end face of T-shaped plate 504 is slidably connected to the bottom surface of partition plate 502, and the bottom surface of T-shaped plate 504 is slidably connected to the inner bottom surface of anti-theft box 507. By setting telescopic rod 503 and utilizing its self-locking function, the theft prevention of battery 6 is achieved, and it is also convenient to unlock battery 6. The anti-theft measures for car batteries include the following steps:

[0029] 1) Place the battery 6 between the two L-shaped rockers 509 from top to bottom, with the left and right end faces of the battery 6 in contact with the outer surfaces of the two L-shaped rockers 509 respectively, to limit the left and right movement of the battery 6.

[0030] 2) The bottom surface of the battery 6 is pressed into contact with the inner bottom surfaces of the two L-shaped rockers 509, causing the L-shaped rockers 509 to deflect. The inner side of the U-shaped gripper 510 engages with the outer surface of the battery 6, and the inner sides of both U-shaped grippers 510 engage with the outer surface of the battery 6, thereby limiting the upper and lower positions of the battery 6.

[0031] 3) When the L-shaped rocker 509 deflects, it causes the connecting rod 501 to deflect as well. The bottom end of the connecting rod 501 moves downward, causing the slide rod 506 to slide downward. The slide rod 506 causes the stop block 505 to move downward. The bottom surface of the stop block 505 presses against the outer surface of the T-shaped plate 504, causing the slide rod 506 to deform. This causes the left side of the stop block 505 to slide along the outer surface of the T-shaped plate 504. When the stop block 505 slides to the bottom, the top surface of the stop block 505 engages with the outer surface of the T-shaped plate 504. At this point, the L-shaped rocker 509 cannot rotate, thus locking the battery 6. In step 3, the telescopic rod 503 remains extended when no power is applied.

[0032] In use, the L-shaped plate 1 is fixed to the car with bolts, and the battery 6 is placed between the two L-shaped rocker arms 509. The bottom surface of the battery 6 is pressed against the inner bottom surface of the L-shaped rocker arms 509, causing the L-shaped rocker arms 509 to deflect. The inner side of the U-shaped gripper 510 engages with the outer surface of the battery 6. Rotating the handle 4 causes the screw 207 to rotate, moving the pressure plate 204 backward, causing the rear end face of the gasket 206 to press against the front face of the battery 6. When the L-shaped rocker arms 509 deflect, The connecting rod 501 is deflected, causing the sliding rod 506 to move downwards. The sliding rod 506 then moves the stop block 505 downwards, causing the top surface of the stop block 505 to engage with the bottom right side of the T-shaped plate 504. At this time, the L-shaped rocker 509 cannot rotate, thus preventing the theft of the battery 6. When replacing the battery, an electrical signal needs to be sent to the telescopic rod 503 to retract it. The output rod of the telescopic rod 503 drives the T-shaped plate 504 to move to the left. When the T-shaped plate 504 moves to the left side of the stop plate 505, the battery is unlocked.

[0033] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: the anti-theft design method for automobile batteries, by setting up a sliding rod 506, a stop block 506, and a T-shaped plate 504, prevents the L-shaped rocker 509 from opening outward when there is no electrical signal input, thus preventing the battery 6 from being removed; by setting up a screw 207 and a pressure plate 204, the battery 6 is limited in front and behind, keeping the battery stable while driving in the vehicle; by setting up a telescopic rod 503 and utilizing its self-locking function, the battery anti-theft is achieved.

[0034] Although embodiments of the invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to the embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
