[0022] The present invention also provides an application method of a lithium battery charger with reverse connection protection, comprising the following steps:
[0023] S1: Place the lithium batteries to be charged in the battery fixing corridor in sequence, with the positive or negative electrodes of each lithium battery located on the same side;
[0024] S2: The conveyor belt drives the lithium batteries to move, and each lithium battery is laid flat on the conveyor belt in turn;
[0025] S3: The driving motor drives the rack to move, so that the conductive rod of the positive and negative electrode adjustment structure contacts the lithium battery, and then moves according to the shape difference between the two ends of the lithium battery. The other end of the conductive rod is connected to the corresponding electrode to charge the lithium battery.
[0026] S4: After the lithium battery is fully charged, the batch of charged lithium batteries are taken out through the conveyor belt.
[0027] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following advantages:
[0028] (1) This solution places the lithium battery in the battery fixing corridor, moves the lithium battery to the preset position through the conveyor belt, drives the synchronous transmission shaft and the transmission gear to move, and then drives the racks on both sides of the conveyor belt to drive the positive and negative electrode adjustment structures set on the fixing frame to move synchronously; the conductive rod contacts the electrode of the lithium battery, and the conductive rod contacting the positive electrode of the lithium battery is pushed backward due to the height of the positive electrode protrusion, so that the adjustable negative electrode is retracted and located on the side of the conductive rod. Since the outer side of the conductive rod is provided with an insulating layer, the conductive rod is not connected to the negative electrode of the power source, and contacts with the fixed positive electrode at the rear to achieve selective positive electrode connection. Since the negative electrode has no protrusion height, the conductive rod contacts and connects with the negative electrode of the power source, so that the lithium battery completes the pairing charging. When the lithium battery is completely charged and disengaged, the conductive rod is reset under the action of the reset member for the next lithium battery charging.
[0029] Since the positive and negative pole adjustment structures at both ends of the lithium battery are symmetrically arranged, no matter the positive pole of the battery is on the left or on the right, the conductive rod can be adjusted by utilizing the height of the lithium battery protrusion so that the other end of the conductive rod corresponds to the positive and negative poles of the corresponding lithium battery, which can fundamentally avoid the reverse connection of the battery. Moreover, compared with the existing method of preventing reverse connection through circuit control, the reverse connection can be solved from the root. The circuit will produce a sudden change of current during the positive and negative switching process, causing damage to the circuit. The structure of the present application is simple, accurate and safe. The arrangement of the battery fixing corridor and the transmission belt can charge multiple batteries and improve the scope of application of the device.
[0030] (2) This solution blocks the exit end of the battery fixing corridor through a limit plate when the lithium battery is being charged. After charging is completed, the limit plate can be opened to directly take out the lithium battery through a conveyor belt, thereby improving the overall efficiency. On the other hand, the pressure signal generated by the contact between the limit plate and the lithium battery is used to feedback the number of batteries in the battery fixing corridor. When the preset number is reached, the drive motor moves, driving the positive and negative pole adjustment structure on the rack to move and contact the two ends of the lithium battery, and the charging port is matched by the presence or absence of protrusions on the positive and negative poles of the lithium battery. When the match is correct, the drive motor control circuit disconnects the power supply of the drive motor to stop it. The corresponding pressure signals generated by the lithium battery and the device are used to control the action of the charging structure, which further simplifies the operation steps and improves the charging efficiency of the lithium battery.

[0048] The synchronous adjustment component 2 includes a driving motor 21, a synchronous transmission shaft 22, a transmission gear 23 and a rack 24; the anti-reverse connection component 3 includes a positive and negative electrode adjustment structure symmetrically arranged at both ends of the lithium battery 6, and the positive and negative electrode adjustment structure includes a fixing frame 31, a fixing sleeve 32, a conductive rod 33, an adjustable negative electrode 34, a fixed positive electrode 35 and a reset member 36;
[0049] The fixing frame 31 is arranged on the rack 24, the sleeve 32 is vertically fixed on the side of the fixing frame 31 close to the lithium battery 6, the fixed positive electrode 35 is arranged at the bottom end of the fixing sleeve 32, the adjustable negative electrode 34 is rotatably arranged in the fixing sleeve 32 and is located on the side of the fixed positive electrode 35 close to the lithium battery 6, the reset member 36 is arranged between the fixing sleeve 32 and the conductive rod 33, and the outer side of the conductive rod 33 is provided with an insulating layer 37;

[0051] Working principle: the lithium battery 6 is placed in the battery fixing corridor 4, and the lithium battery 6 is moved to the preset position by the conveyor belt 5. The driving motor 21 drives the synchronous transmission shaft 22 and the transmission gear 23 to move, and then the racks 24 on both sides of the conveyor belt 5 drive the positive and negative electrode adjustment structures set on the fixing frame 31 to move synchronously; the conductive rod 33 contacts the electrode of the lithium battery 6, and the conductive rod 33 contacting the positive electrode of the lithium battery 6 is pushed backward due to the height of the positive electrode protrusion, so that the adjustable negative electrode 34 is retracted and located on the side of the conductive rod 33. Since an insulating layer is provided on the outer side of the conductive rod 33, the conductive rod 33 is not connected with the negative electrode of the power supply, and contacts with the fixed positive electrode 35 at the rear to realize selective positive electrode connection. Since the negative electrode has no protrusion height, the conductive rod 33 contacts and connects with the negative electrode of the power supply, so that the lithium battery completes the pairing charging. When the lithium battery is charged and disengaged, the conductive rod 33 is reset under the action of the reset member 36 for the next lithium battery charging.
[0052] Since the positive and negative pole adjustment structures at both ends of the lithium battery are symmetrically arranged, no matter the positive pole of the battery is on the left or on the right, the conductive rod 33 can be adjusted by utilizing the height of the lithium battery protrusion so that the other end of the conductive rod corresponds to the positive and negative poles of the corresponding lithium battery 6, which can fundamentally avoid the reverse connection of the battery. Moreover, compared with the existing method of preventing reverse connection through circuit control, the reverse connection can be solved from the root. The circuit will produce a sudden change of current during the positive and negative switching process, causing damage to the circuit. The structure of the present application is simple, accurate and safe. The arrangement of the battery fixing corridor 4 and the transmission belt 5 can charge multiple batteries and improve the scope of application of the device.

The pressure sensor 71 is used to obtain the pressure signal of the lithium battery 6 on the limit plate. The pressure sensor is connected to the control unit. The control unit adjusts the drive motor according to the pressure signal. The charging circuit is electrically connected to the drive motor 21 to control the on and off of the power supply circuit of the drive motor 21.

After charging is completed, the limit plate 7 can be opened to directly take out the lithium battery through the conveyor belt, thereby improving the overall efficiency. On the other hand, the pressure signal generated by the contact between the limit plate 7 and the lithium battery is used to feedback the number of batteries in the battery fixing corridor 4. When the preset number is reached, the drive motor moves, driving the positive and negative pole adjustment structure on the rack to move and contact the two ends of the lithium battery, and the charging port of the lithium battery is matched by the presence or absence of protrusions on the positive and negative poles of the lithium battery. When the match is correct, the drive motor control circuit disconnects the power supply of the drive motor to stop it. The corresponding pressure signals generated by the lithium battery and the device are used to control the action of the charging structure, which further simplifies the operating steps and improves the charging efficiency of the lithium battery.
