Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to the field of parts assembly and disassembly technology, and more specifically, to a tool and equipment for assembling and disassembling a connecting mechanism. Background Technology
[0002] Connecting components in a connection mechanism typically include bolts, threaded pins, and screws. Due to vibration or other conditions, the threads of these components may retract, leading to a decrease in connection torque and ultimately, connection failure.
[0003] To solve the above problems, a locking element is usually installed near the connector. The locking element abuts against the connector to restrict the rotation of the connector, thereby limiting the thread retraction and improving the stability of the connection mechanism.
[0004] Furthermore, the disassembly of the connecting mechanism mainly involves the connection and disassembly of the connecting parts to the target object. However, in current connecting mechanisms, locking components hinder both the installation and disassembly of the connecting parts. In other words, the disassembly of the current connecting mechanism is not convenient enough. Summary of the Invention
[0005] The purpose of this application is to provide a disassembly and assembly tool and equipment for a connecting mechanism. During the disassembly and assembly process, the locking member is pushed open by the abutment of its housing, thereby releasing the locking member from locking the connecting member, and thus making it easier to disassemble the connecting mechanism.
[0006] In a first aspect, this application provides a tool for disassembling and assembling a connecting mechanism, wherein the connecting mechanism includes a connecting member and a locking member; the locking member is configured to lock the connecting member to maintain its connected state; the disassembly and assembly tool includes a housing and a disassembly and assembly assembly; the disassembly and assembly assembly is rotatably connected to the housing and has a transmission part and a disassembly and assembly part; the transmission part is configured to receive torque and rotate under the action of the torque to drive the disassembly and assembly part to rotate, the disassembly and assembly part is configured to connect to the connecting member and drive the connecting member to rotate when the disassembly and assembly part rotates, so as to disassemble or install the connecting member; the housing includes an abutment member, the abutment member being configured to abut against and push open the locking member when the housing moves toward the locking member, so as to release the locking member from locking the connecting member.
[0007] The disassembly and assembly tools of the above-mentioned connecting mechanism can open the locking member by abutting the housing against the locking member, thereby releasing the locking member from locking the connecting member. Under these circumstances, the connecting member can be disassembled and assembled, which improves the convenience of disassembling the connecting mechanism.
[0008] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the housing further includes a housing body; a first elastic member is disposed within the housing body; the abutment member is slidably connected to the housing body, and the sliding direction of the abutment member is parallel to the rotation axis of the disassembly assembly; the abutment member has an abutting end and a connecting end; the abutting end is used to abut against the locking member, and the connecting end is connected to the first elastic member; the abutment member is further configured to maintain a movement tendency in a first direction under the action of the first elastic member; wherein, the first direction of movement includes a direction parallel to the sliding direction of the abutment member and toward the abutting end away from the housing body.
[0009] If the connecting member has a locking element (i.e., the connecting mechanism described in this application) around it, the locking element can be pushed open by the first elastic element when the connecting member needs to be disassembled, facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the connecting member. If there is no locking element around the connecting member, and the connecting member is located in a recess with a radial width smaller than the radial width of the locking element (e.g., the nut of a screw is located in a circular recess in the target problem, the locking element has a cylindrical structure, and the inner diameter of the circular recess is smaller than the outer diameter of the locking element), the edge of the recess will usually abut against the locking element during the disassembly of the connecting member. Therefore, the locking element, which is movably connected to the shell body, can slide on the shell body in a direction opposite to the first direction of movement, allowing the disassembly / assembly part to smoothly enter the recess and connect with the connecting member. This further facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the connecting member. Therefore, by movably connecting the locking element to the shell body, the flexibility and convenience of the disassembly / assembly tool for the connecting mechanism provided in this application are improved.
[0010] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the housing further includes a limiting member; the limiting member is connected to one end of the housing body near the abutting end; the abutting member is provided with a limiting portion that matches the limiting member; the limiting portion is configured to restrict the movement of the abutting member along the first movement direction when the abutting member moves to abut against the limiting portion.
[0011] The disassembly and assembly tool of the aforementioned connecting mechanism, through the abutment between the limiting member and the limiting part on the abutment member, to a certain extent prevents the abutment member from being pushed open by the first elastic member, thus separating the sliding connection between it and the shell body. Compared with selecting a first elastic member of a specific length in its natural state, the disassembly and assembly tool of the connecting mechanism provided in this application is more flexible in selecting the first elastic member, thereby reducing the complexity of raw material selection during the manufacturing process.
[0012] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the limiting member is detachably connected to the shell body.
[0013] The disassembly and assembly tools for the aforementioned connecting mechanism, through the detachable connection between the limiting component and the housing body, facilitate troubleshooting and maintenance of the connecting mechanism through disassembly. This is especially convenient when the abutment component needs to be replaced separately, as it allows for easy disassembly of the abutment component.
[0014] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the disassembly / assembly assembly includes a transmission component and a disassembly / assembly component; the transmission component is connected to the disassembly / assembly component; the disassembly / assembly part is located on the disassembly / assembly component; the transmission component includes a transmission body and the transmission part; the radial width of the transmission part is greater than the radial width of the disassembly / assembly part, and is configured to connect to the torque output end of the drive device to obtain the torque and transmit the torque to the disassembly / assembly part.
[0015] The disassembly and assembly tools of the above-mentioned connection mechanism are connected to the torque output end of the drive device through a flange with a radial width greater than that of the disassembly and assembly part, which makes the drive device more labor-saving when driving the disassembly and assembly parts to rotate.
[0016] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the transmission component further includes a first connecting pin; the transmission part is provided with a first pin hole; the first connecting pin is used to pass through the first pin hole and be inserted into the torque output end of the drive device, so as to realize the transmission part receiving the torque.
[0017] The disassembly and assembly tool for the aforementioned connecting mechanism achieves a detachable connection between the transmission unit and the torque output end by inserting the first connecting pin through the first pin hole and into the torque output end of the drive device. Furthermore, this connection method is simpler.
[0018] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the transmission member and the disassembly / assembly member are slidably connected, the sliding direction of the disassembly / assembly member being parallel to the rotation axis of the disassembly / assembly assembly; the disassembly / assembly member is configured to adapt to the position of the connecting member and connect with the connecting member by sliding relative to the transmission member.
[0019] The disassembly and assembly tools of the aforementioned connecting mechanism, through the slidable connection between the disassembly / assembly component and the transmission component, also improve the flexibility and convenience of the disassembly and assembly tools of the connecting mechanism.
[0020] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the transmission member has a sliding space; the sliding space is used to accommodate and allow part or all of the disassembly / assembly component to move therein; the disassembly / assembly component includes a second elastic element disposed within the sliding space; the disassembly / assembly component is connected to the second elastic element to maintain its tendency to move in a second direction; wherein the second direction of movement includes a direction parallel to the sliding direction of the disassembly / assembly component and toward the disassembly / assembly portion away from the housing body.
[0021] The disassembly and assembly tool of the above-mentioned connecting mechanism, on the basis of realizing the slidable connection between the transmission component and the disassembly and assembly component, is connected to the disassembly and assembly component through the second elastic component, and keeps the disassembly and assembly component in the second direction of movement, so that the disassembly and assembly component is easier to connect with the connecting component during the disassembly and assembly of the connecting mechanism.
[0022] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the disassembly and assembly assembly further includes a second connecting pin; the transmission body is provided with an elongated hole having a length direction parallel to the sliding direction of the disassembly and assembly component; the disassembly and assembly component is provided with a second pin hole, the extension direction of the second pin hole being coplanar with the extension direction of the elongated hole; the second connecting pin passes through the elongated hole and the second pin hole.
[0023] The disassembly and assembly tool of the above-mentioned connecting mechanism, through the configuration of the elongated hole and the second connecting pin, not only restricts the stroke of the disassembly and assembly parts, but also provides a portion of the torque for the transmission parts to rotate during the process of the disassembly and assembly parts being driven by the transmission parts through the abutment between the second connecting pin and the wall of the elongated hole.
[0024] In conjunction with the first aspect, optionally, the connecting mechanism includes a power battery locking mechanism; the connecting member includes a bolt, and the locking member includes a limiting pin; the bolt has an abutment portion; the limiting pin is used to abut against the abutment portion to restrict the rotation of the bolt.
[0025] The aforementioned disassembly and assembly tools for the connection mechanism, by applying the disassembly and assembly tools provided in this application to the disassembly and assembly of the power battery locking mechanism, improve the convenience of disassembly and assembly of the power battery and the vehicle, thereby improving the efficiency of disassembly and assembly of the power battery and the vehicle.
[0026] Secondly, this application provides a disassembly and assembly device for a connecting mechanism, including a drive device and a disassembly and assembly tool for the connecting mechanism as described in the first aspect; the drive device includes a torque output end; the torque output end is connected to the transmission part.
[0027] The disassembly and assembly equipment of the above-mentioned connecting mechanism has the same beneficial effects as the disassembly and assembly tools of the connecting mechanism provided in the first aspect, and will not be described in detail here.
[0028] In summary, the disassembly and assembly tools and equipment for the connecting mechanism provided in this application can open the locking member by abutting the housing against the locking member, thereby releasing the locking member from locking the connecting member. This allows for disassembly and assembly of the connecting member, improving the convenience of disassembling the connecting mechanism. The first elastic member connected to the abutting member and the second elastic member connected to the disassembly / assembly member both enhance flexibility and convenience. The configuration of the elongated hole and the second connecting pin not only limits the stroke of the disassembly / assembly member but also provides torque during the rotation of the disassembly / assembly member by the abutting between the second connecting pin and the wall of the elongated hole. In particular, using the disassembly and assembly tools and equipment for the connecting mechanism provided in this application for disassembling and assembling the power battery locking mechanism improves the convenience of disassembling and assembling the power battery from the vehicle, thereby increasing the efficiency of such disassembly and assembly.

Detailed Implementation
[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this application clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. The components of the embodiments of this application described and shown in the accompanying drawings can generally be arranged and designed in various different configurations.
[0038] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of this application provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed application, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the application. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of this application.
[0039] It should be noted that similar labels and letters in the following figures indicate similar items. Therefore, once an item is defined in one figure, it does not need to be further defined and explained in subsequent figures.
[0040] In the description of this application, it should be noted that the terms "center," "upper," "lower," "left," "right," "vertical," "horizontal," "inner," and "outer," etc., indicate the orientation or positional relationship based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, or the orientation or positional relationship commonly used when the product of the invention is in use. They are used only for the convenience of describing this application and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this application. In addition, the terms "first," "second," and "third," etc., are used only to distinguish descriptions and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance.
[0041] Furthermore, terms such as "horizontal" and "vertical" do not imply that components must be absolutely horizontal or suspended, but rather that they can be slightly tilted. For example, "horizontal" simply means that its direction is more horizontal than "vertical," not that the structure must be completely horizontal, but can be slightly tilted.
[0042] In the description of this application, it should also be noted that, unless otherwise expressly specified and limited, the terms "set up," "install," "connect," and "link" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this application based on the specific circumstances.
[0043] Normally, the default position of the locking element in a connecting mechanism on the target object is abutting against the connecting element. That is, regardless of whether the connecting element is installed on or off the target object, the locking element is always in a position abutting against the connecting element installed on the target object. Therefore, to facilitate the disassembly of the connecting element in the connecting mechanism, the position of the locking element needs to be changed to avoid creating the space required for the disassembly and assembly of the connecting element.
[0044] However, most of the tools currently used in the assembly and disassembly of connecting mechanisms are not capable of manipulating the locking components of the connecting mechanism to create the space required for assembly and disassembly. This results in the current inconvenience of disassembling the connecting mechanism.
[0045] To address these issues, this application provides a tool and equipment for disassembling and assembling a connecting mechanism, thereby resolving the aforementioned technical problems. Specifically, please refer to the embodiments and accompanying drawings provided in this application.
[0046] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1This is a perspective view of a disassembly and assembly tool 100 for a connecting mechanism provided in an embodiment of this application. The present application provides a disassembly and assembly tool 100 for a connecting mechanism. The connecting mechanism may include a connecting member and a locking member. The locking member may be configured to lock the connecting member to maintain its connected state. The disassembly and assembly tool may include a housing 110 and a disassembly and assembly assembly 120. The disassembly and assembly assembly 120 may be rotatably connected to the housing 110 and may have a transmission part 1211 and a disassembly and assembly part 1221. The transmission part 1211 may be configured to receive torque and rotate under the action of torque to drive the disassembly and assembly part 1221 to rotate. The disassembly and assembly part 1221 may be configured to connect to the connecting member and drive the connecting member to rotate when the housing 110 rotates towards the locking member, thereby releasing the locking member from locking the connecting member.
[0047] The assembly / disassembly component 120 may be partially located inside the housing 110 and partially located outside the housing 110. The assembly / disassembly component 120 may be a single integrally formed part or an assembly composed of multiple parts that are fixedly or detachably connected together. When the assembly / disassembly component 120 includes multiple parts, the transmission part 1211 and the assembly / disassembly part 1221 may be located on different parts of the assembly / disassembly component 120.
[0048] The disassembly / assembly part 1221 can be a recess or socket matching the shape of the nut for clamping or receiving the nut; it can also be a cutting head matching the slotted or cloverleaf pattern on the nut. The transmission part 1211 can be a connecting part for connecting to the torque output end of the drive device. In this case, the drive device drives the transmission part 1211 and rotates the disassembly / assembly part 1221, thereby rotating the connecting part with the disassembly / assembly mechanism to achieve disassembly / assembly. The transmission part 1211 can also be a gripping part for the user to hold. In this case, the user manually operates the transmission part 1211 to rotate, thereby rotating the connecting part with the disassembly / assembly mechanism to achieve disassembly / assembly.
[0049] The housing 110 can be a single, integrally molded part. In this case, the abutment 111 can be a part of the housing 110, or it can be an assembly formed by connecting it to other parts of the housing 110 through fixed connection, detachable connection, or movable link. The positional relationship between the abutment 111 and the disassembly / assembly part 1221 can be determined based on the positional relationship between the locking member and the connecting member in the connecting mechanism. Taking a screw as an example, when the locking member abuts against the relevant part of the bolt to restrict its rotation, the geometric center of the locking member is 1 cm away from the geometric center of the nut in the bolt. Therefore, the geometric center of the abutment 111 can also be 1 cm away from the geometric center of the disassembly / assembly part 1221. Thus, when the disassembly / assembly part 1221 is connected to the connecting member, the abutment 111 usually also abuts against the locking member and has already pushed the locking member open, making room for the disassembly / assembly of the connecting member. This facilitates the disassembly / assembly of the connecting mechanism.
[0050] In the above process, the locking member can be opened by the abutment of the housing 110 against the locking member, thereby releasing the locking member from locking the connecting member. Under these circumstances, the connecting member can be disassembled and assembled, which improves the convenience of disassembling the connecting mechanism.
[0051] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 3 as well as Figure 4 , Figure 2 This is a cross-sectional view of the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connection mechanism provided in the embodiments of this application; Figure 3 This is an exploded view of the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connection mechanism provided in the embodiments of this application; Figure 4 This is the three-dimensional representation of the abutment member 111 in the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connection mechanism provided in this application embodiment. In some optional embodiments, the housing 110 may further include a housing body 112. A first elastic member 113 may be provided inside the housing body 112. The abutment member 111 may be slidably connected to the housing body 112, and the sliding direction of the abutment member 111 may be parallel to the rotation axis of the disassembly and assembly assembly 120. The abutment member 111 may have an abutment end 1111 and a connecting end 1112. The abutment end 1111 may be used to abut against a locking member, and the connecting end 1112 may be connected to the first elastic member 113. The abutment member 111 may also be configured to maintain a movement tendency in a first direction under the action of the first elastic member 113. The first direction of movement may include a direction parallel to the sliding direction of the abutment member 111 and away from the housing body 112 towards the abutment end 1111.
[0052] Regarding the slidable connection between the abutment 111 and the shell body 112, specifically, the shell body 112 may be provided with a groove, and the abutment 111 may be provided with a sliding part that matches the groove; or the abutment 111 may be provided with a groove, and the shell body 112 may be provided with a corresponding sliding part; or the corresponding part of the slidable connection between the abutment 111 and the shell body 112 may be cylindrical, with the cylindrical structure of the abutment 111 sleeved on the cylindrical structure of the shell body 112, or the cylindrical structure of the shell body 112 sleeved on the cylindrical structure of the abutment 111.
[0053] The first elastic element 113 can be a spring, an elastic diaphragm, etc.
[0054] In the above implementation process, if there is a locking member (i.e., the connecting mechanism described in this application) abutting the connector, the abutting member 111 can push open the locking member when the connector needs to be disassembled or assembled, facilitating the disassembly and assembly of the connector. If there is no locking member abutting the connector, and the connector is located in a recess with a radial width smaller than the radial width of the abutting member 111 (e.g., the screw nut is located in a circular recess in the target problem, the abutting member 111 has a cylindrical structure, and the inner diameter of the circular recess is smaller than the outer diameter of the abutting member 111), the edge of the recess will usually abut against the abutting member 111 during the disassembly of the connector. Thus, the abutting member 111, which is movably connected to the shell body 112, can slide on the shell body 112 in a direction opposite to the first direction of movement, allowing the disassembly / assembly part 1221 to smoothly enter the recess and connect with the connector. This further facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the connector. Therefore, by movably connecting the abutment member 111 to the shell body 112, the flexibility and convenience of the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connection mechanism provided in this application embodiment are improved.
[0055] Please continue to refer to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some alternative embodiments, the housing 110 may further include a limiting member 114. The limiting member 114 may be connected to one end of the housing body 112 near the abutting end 1111. The abutting member 111 may be provided with a limiting portion 1113 that matches the limiting member 114. The limiting portion 1113 may be configured to restrict the movement of the abutting member 111 along a first direction of movement when the abutting member 111 moves to abut against the limiting portion 1113.
[0056] The limiting member 114 and the shell body 112 can be integrally formed, fixedly connected, or detachably connected, etc.
[0057] Normally, without the configuration of the limiting member 114 and the upper limit portion 1113 of the abutment member 111, if it is necessary to prevent the abutment member 111 from being pushed open by the action of the first elastic member 113 and thus separating the sliding connection between it and the shell body 112, it is necessary to select a first elastic member 113 of appropriate length in its natural state (neither compressed nor stretched) so that when the first elastic member 113 is connected to the abutment member 111, the first elastic member 113 can also maintain the sliding connection between the abutment member 111 and the shell body 112 in its natural state.
[0058] In the above-described process, the contact between the limiting member 114 and the limiting portion 1113 on the abutting member 111 prevents the abutting member 111 from being pushed open by the first elastic member 113, thus separating the sliding connection between it and the shell body 112. Compared to selecting a first elastic member 113 of a specific length in its natural state, the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connection mechanism provided in this application is more flexible in selecting the first elastic member 113, thereby reducing the complexity of raw material selection during the manufacturing process.
[0059] Please continue to refer to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some alternative implementations, the limiting member 114 may be detachably connected to the housing body 112.
[0060] For example, the limiting member 114 can be connected to the housing body 112 by bolts, fixing pins, etc.
[0061] In the above implementation process, the detachable connection between the limiting member 114 and the shell body 112 facilitates the disassembly and assembly of the connecting mechanism by the disassembly tool 100 for troubleshooting and maintenance. This is especially convenient when the abutment member 111 needs to be replaced separately, as it facilitates the disassembly of the abutment member 111.
[0062] Please continue to refer to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some alternative embodiments, the disassembly / assembly assembly 120 may include a transmission member 121 and a disassembly / assembly member 122. The transmission member 121 may be connected to the disassembly / assembly member 122. The disassembly / assembly portion 1221 may be located on top of the disassembly / assembly member 122. The transmission member 121 may include a transmission body 1212 and a transmission portion 1211. The radial width of the transmission portion 1211 may be greater than the radial width of the disassembly / assembly portion 1221, and it may be configured to connect to the torque output end of the drive device to obtain torque and transmit torque to the disassembly / assembly portion 1221.
[0063] The assembly / disassembly component 122 and the transmission component 121 can be integrally formed, fixedly connected, or movably connected, etc. The transmission part 1211 can be a flange connected to the transmission component 121. Because its radial width is greater than the radial width of the assembly / disassembly component 1221, connecting the transmission part 1211 to the torque output end of the drive device to drive the assembly / disassembly component 1221 can achieve a labor-saving effect. The drive device can be a rotary motor.
[0064] In the above implementation process, the flange with a radial width greater than that of the disassembly part 1221 is connected to the torque output end of the drive device, which makes the drive device more labor-saving when driving the disassembly part 122 to rotate.
[0065] Please continue to refer to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some alternative embodiments, the transmission member 121 may further include a first connecting pin 1213. A first pin hole 1214 may be provided on the transmission part 1211. The first connecting pin 1213 can be used to pass through the first pin hole 1214 and be inserted into the torque output end of the drive device to realize the transmission part 1211 receiving torque.
[0066] The first connecting pin 1213 can be a bolt, a retaining pin, etc.
[0067] In the above implementation process, the transmission unit 1211 and the torque output end are detachably connected by the first connecting pin 1213 passing through the first pin hole 1214 and being inserted into the torque output end of the drive device. Moreover, this connection method is simpler.
[0068] Please continue to refer to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some alternative embodiments, the transmission member 121 may be slidably connected to the mounting member 122, the sliding direction of the mounting member 122 being parallel to the rotation axis of the mounting assembly 120. The mounting member 122 may be configured to adapt to the position of the connector and connect to the connector by sliding relative to the transmission member 121.
[0069] Regarding the slidable connection between the transmission component 121 and the assembly / disassembly component 122, specifically, the transmission component 121 may be provided with a sliding groove, and the assembly / disassembly component 122 may be provided with a sliding part that matches the sliding groove; or the assembly / disassembly component 122 may be provided with a sliding groove, and the transmission component 121 may be provided with a corresponding sliding part. Alternatively, the transmission component 121 may be sleeved on the assembly / disassembly component 122, or the assembly / disassembly component 122 may be sleeved on the transmission component 121.
[0070] In the above implementation process, the slidable connection between the disassembly / assembly component 122 and the transmission component 121 also improves the flexibility and convenience of the disassembly / assembly tool 100 of the connection mechanism.
[0071] Please continue to refer to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some alternative embodiments, the transmission member 121 may have a sliding space. The sliding space can be used to accommodate and allow part or all of the disassembly / assembly member 122 to move within it. The disassembly / assembly assembly 120 may include, and may also include, a second elastic member 123 disposed within the sliding space. The disassembly / assembly member 122 may be connected to the second elastic member 123 to maintain its tendency to move in a second direction. The second direction of movement may include a direction parallel to the sliding direction of the disassembly / assembly member 122 and toward the disassembly / assembly portion 1221 away from the housing body 112.
[0072] In the above embodiments, the transmission component 121 may be sleeved on the assembly / disassembly component 122. Further, the portion of the assembly / disassembly component 122 that is slidably connected to the transmission component 121 may be a triangular prism, a square prism, a pentagonal prism, an elliptical cylinder, etc. Correspondingly, the sliding space on the transmission component 121 may be a shape that matches the assembly / disassembly component 122.
[0073] The second elastic element 123 can also be a spring, an elastic diaphragm, etc.
[0074] In the above implementation process, based on the slidable connection between the transmission component 121 and the disassembly component 122, the second elastic component 123 is connected to the disassembly component 122 and the disassembly component 122 is kept in the second direction of motion, so that the disassembly component 122 is easier to connect with the connecting component during the disassembly and assembly of the connecting mechanism.
[0075] Please continue to refer to [the relevant information]. Figure 2 and Figure 3 In some optional embodiments, the disassembly assembly 120 may include a second connecting pin 125. The transmission body 1212 may be provided with an elongated hole 1215 in the length direction, which may be parallel to the sliding direction of the disassembly assembly 122. The disassembly assembly 122 is provided with a second pin hole 1222, the extension direction of which may be coplanar with the extension direction of the elongated hole 1215. The second connecting pin 125 passes through the elongated hole 1215 and the other part passes through the second pin hole 1222.
[0076] In the above implementation process, the configuration of the elongated hole 1215 and the second connecting pin 125 not only restricts the stroke of the disassembly and assembly part 122, but also provides a portion of the torque for the transmission part 121 to drive the disassembly and assembly part 122 to rotate through the abutment between the second connecting pin 125 and the hole wall of the elongated hole 1215.
[0077] Please Figure 2 and Figure 3 Based on reference Figure 5 and Figure 6, Figure 5 This is a cross-sectional view of the power battery locking mechanism 200 provided in the embodiments of this application; Figure 6 This is a perspective view of the power battery locking mechanism 200 provided in an embodiment of this application. In some optional embodiments, the connecting mechanism may include the power battery locking mechanism 200. The connecting member may include a bolt 210, and the locking member may include a limiting pin 220. The bolt 210 may have an abutment portion. The limiting pin 220 may be used to abut against the abutment portion to limit the rotation of the bolt 210.
[0078] In current battery pack quick-swap technology, the connection between the power battery and the vehicle is mainly achieved using the aforementioned power battery locking mechanism 200. The specific connection method can be as follows: Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the bolt 210 includes a locking portion 211 and a nut 212, the diameter of which may be smaller than the diameter of the locking portion 211. The locking portion 211 may have several notches that match the limiting pin 220. The locking portion 211 may include a thicker portion 221 and a thinner portion 222, the diameter of which is larger than the diameter of the thinner portion 222. Under the action of the third elastic member 230, the thicker portion 221 is kept in contact with the notches on the locking portion 211 to lock the bolt 210. During the disassembly and assembly of the bolt 210, the abutting portion of the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connecting mechanism abuts against the thinner portion 222 to release the locking of the bolt 210 by the thicker portion 221.
[0079] In the above implementation process, by applying the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connection mechanism provided in the embodiments of this application to disassemble and assemble the power battery locking mechanism 200, the convenience of disassembling and assembling the power battery and the vehicle is improved, thereby improving the efficiency of disassembling and assembling the power battery and the vehicle.
[0080] Based on the same concept, the disassembly and assembly equipment for the connecting mechanism provided in this application embodiment may include a driving device and a disassembly and assembly tool 100 for the connecting mechanism as described in the preceding embodiments. The driving device may include a torque output end. The torque output end may be connected to the transmission part 1211.
[0081] The aforementioned driving device may be a rotary motor as described in the previous embodiment of the disassembly and assembly tool 100 for the connection mechanism, or it may be another rotary motor.
[0082] The above implementation process can be the same as the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connecting mechanism described in the previous embodiment of the disassembly and assembly tool 100 of the connecting mechanism, and can have the same beneficial effects, which will not be repeated here.
[0083] In summary, the disassembly and assembly tools 100 and devices for the connecting mechanism provided in the various embodiments of this application can open the locking member by abutting the locking member with the housing 110, thereby releasing the locking member from locking the connecting member. This allows for disassembly and assembly of the connecting member, improving the convenience of disassembling the connecting mechanism. The first elastic member 113 connected to the abutting member 111 and the second elastic member 123 connected to the disassembly / assembly member 122 both enhance flexibility and convenience. The configuration of the elongated hole 1215 and the second connecting pin 125 not only limits the stroke of the disassembly / assembly member 122 but also provides torque during the rotation of the disassembly / assembly member 122 by the transmission member 121 through the abutment between the second connecting pin 125 and the wall of the elongated hole 1215. In particular, by using the disassembly and assembly tools 100 and the disassembly and assembly equipment of the connection mechanism provided in the various embodiments of this application to disassemble and assemble the power battery locking mechanism 200, the convenience of disassembling and assembling the power battery and the vehicle is improved, thereby improving the efficiency of disassembling and assembling the power battery and the vehicle.
[0084] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
