Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of battery monitoring equipment, and in particular relates to a battery monitoring device for an excavator. Background Art

[0002] The excavator battery is a key component of the excavator's electrical system. It is mainly a rechargeable DC power supply, generally a lead-acid battery. From the appearance, it is similar to a rectangular box with two positive and negative terminals. It plays an important role. When the excavator is started, it provides a strong current to the starting motor so that the engine can start smoothly. During the operation of the excavator, it provides stable power support for various electrical equipment on the vehicle such as lighting systems, control instruments, radios, etc., and when the engine is working, the generator will charge the battery so that it can continue to play a role in the operation of the excavator. In addition, during the use of the excavator battery, it can also be monitored by a monitoring device. For example, the authorization announcement number CN212905326U discloses an excavator battery monitoring device and an excavator.

[0003] In the actual operation of the excavator, the excavator battery will be continuously disturbed by vibration. When the vibration is too severe, the active substances on the plates will fall off. These fallen active substances will form a local short-circuit channel inside the battery, which will continuously consume the battery power, increase the self-discharge rate, and accelerate the aging process such as plate sulfidation. At the same time, the fallen substances may also block the gap between the plates, hinder the normal diffusion of ions, and irreversibly increase the internal resistance of the battery. If these abnormal conditions of the battery are not discovered and maintained in time, the excavator battery will have reduced charging efficiency, capacity attenuation, and poor discharge performance, which will affect the reliability and service life of the excavator. In addition, the temperature environment in which the excavator battery works also has a great impact on its internal resistance. When the temperature drops, the viscosity of the battery electrolyte increases, the ion diffusion rate slows down, and the internal resistance increases. When the temperature rises, the electrolyte viscosity decreases, the ion movement rate speeds up, and the internal resistance decreases. If these internal resistance changes are not corrected in time, they will also lead to reduced charging efficiency, capacity attenuation, and poor discharge performance of the battery, further affecting the reliability and life of the excavator, and even affecting the normal excavation operation of the excavator.

[0014] Compared with the existing technology, the advantages of an excavator battery monitoring device are: Through the buffer protection mechanism, air intake mechanism and air supply mechanism, when the excavator battery monitoring device is used, the air supply mechanism is first controlled to start by the PLC controller, and the air supply mechanism draws air through the air intake mechanism and injects it into the buffer protection mechanism. As the air in the cylinder increases, the air will push the cylinder up, and at the same time, enough air is filled at the top of the cylinder, and the bottom of the cylinder will squeeze the return spring to compress and generate elastic force. Then, when the battery body is subjected to vertical and lateral vibrations, the buffer protection mechanism can effectively buffer the battery body to prevent the battery body from being disturbed by severe vibrations, and at the same time, prevent the active substances on the plates inside the battery body from falling off, thereby avoiding the problem of irreversible increase in internal resistance of the battery body. This mechanism enables the excavator battery monitoring device to have the function of battery shock absorption protection, avoids irreversible damage to the battery internal resistance as much as possible, and can improve the reliability and life of the battery.

[0015] Through the electronic ohmmeter, alarm and cooling mechanism, the internal resistance of the battery body is detected in real time by the electronic ohmmeter, and the electronic ohmmeter will convert the detected internal resistance value into an electrical signal and transmit it to the PLC controller. If the internal resistance value of the battery body detected by the electronic ohmmeter exceeds the standard internal resistance range threshold of the battery preset by the PLC controller, it means that the battery body may be in a low temperature environment. The PLC controller controls the air intake mechanism to draw high-temperature air from the excavator engine, and uses the high-temperature air to increase the temperature around the battery body. After 5 minutes of injecting high-temperature air, the electronic ohmmeter feedback shows that the internal resistance of the battery body is still too high, which means that the internal resistance of the battery body has increased to an irreversible state, and the alarm is used to remind the staff to maintain it in time. Otherwise, it means that the battery body is in a In a low-temperature environment, the internal resistance is corrected by delivering high-temperature air. If the electronic ohmmeter detects that the internal resistance of the battery body is lower than the standard internal resistance range threshold of the battery preset by the PLC controller, it means that the battery body may be in a high-temperature environment. At this time, the PLC controller controls the air intake mechanism to draw low-temperature air from the excavator cab to cool the battery body, and accelerates the cooling effect through the assistance of the cooling mechanism to ensure that the battery body can be used continuously and reliably. This mechanism enables the excavator battery monitoring device to have the ability to monitor the internal resistance in real time, and can promptly detect the situation where the internal resistance of the battery has irreversibly increased, and can promptly remind the battery maintenance. In addition, the device also has the function of automatically adjusting the working environment temperature of the battery, which effectively improves the reliability and life of the battery.

[0016] Through the set harness stabilization mechanism, when the two conductive posts of the battery body are connected to the harness, the harness is passed through the rectangular threading hole and placed on the lower side of the rubber strip, and then the positioning bolt is rotated, the bottom end of the positioning bolt pushes the pressure strip downward, and the pressure strip pushes the rubber strip to squeeze the harness, thereby achieving a stable connection between the side end of the harness and the conductive post of the battery body, and is not affected by the fluctuations generated by the operation of the buffer protection mechanism, thereby ensuring the firmness of the connection between the harness and the conductive post of the battery body. This mechanism enables the excavator battery monitoring device to effectively improve the stability of the connection between the harness and the battery conductive post, and ensure the reliability of the battery operation.

[0025] The first normally open solenoid valve 61, the second normally open solenoid valve 62, the semiconductor refrigeration plate 81, the micro one-way air pump 91 and the alarm 11 are all electrically connected to the output end of the PLC controller 13 through wires, and the electronic ohmmeter 12 and the temperature sensor 84 are all electrically connected to the input end of the PLC controller 13 through wires, wherein the model of the electronic ohmmeter 12 is a ZXHD / SOX-3 digital ohmmeter, and the electronic ohmmeter 12 converts the measured resistance value signal into an electrical signal through its output interface, and then connects it to the input end of the PLC controller 13. The above-mentioned power-on devices and electrical connections are all existing technologies and will not be repeated here.

[0026] The operating principle of the present invention is now described as follows: When the excavator battery monitoring device is disturbed by the working vibration of the excavator during use, the air inlet of the first air inlet duct 69 is first arranged in the cab of the excavator, and the air inlet of the second air inlet duct 610 is arranged at the engine of the excavator. During the discharge process of the battery body 1, the PLC controller 13 controls the micro one-way air pump 91 to start. At this time, the power of the micro one-way air pump 91 to suck air is 70% of the maximum rated power. Running the micro one-way air pump 91 at this power can not only ensure normal use, but also reduce energy consumption and achieve the most economical operating state. At this time, the micro one-way air pump 91 sucks air through the air intake mechanism 6, the hollow support plate 3 and the air outlet 611. The air will pass through the activated carbon adsorption block 66 and the overpressure in the process of passing through the air intake mechanism 6. The filter sponge block 67 filters and purifies the clean air, and the clean air enters the hollow support plate 3. Then the micro one-way air pump 91 injects the clean air into the air cylinder 72 through the hose 92, the hollow fixed plate 93 and the support tube 75. As the air in the air cylinder 72 increases, the air will push the air cylinder 72 upward. During the rising process of the air cylinder 72, the air cylinder 72 drives the hollow outer shell 2 to rise through the extension ring 73 and the limit sleeve 74, and the bottom of the air cylinder 72 will also squeeze the return spring 78 to compress and generate elastic force, and then the convex ring 76 and the sealing ring 77 will be relatively displaced from the top of the air cylinder 72 until the sealing ring 77 moves to the lower side of the exhaust guide hole 79. After that, the air injected at the top of the air cylinder 72 is discharged from the exhaust guide hole 79. However, due to the small inner diameter of the exhaust guide hole 79, the air is discharged slowly, so that there is still sufficient air at the top of the air cylinder 72. At this time, if the excavator generates vertical vibrations during operation, the hollow shell 2 will move up and down. During the up and down movement of the hollow shell 2, the elastic force of the return spring 78 and the resistance generated by the air compression at the top of the air cylinder 72 will buffer the vertical vibrations, and these resistances can prevent the top of the air cylinder 72 from contacting the top of the sealing ring 77 and the bottom of the convex ring 76 from contacting the bottom of the air cylinder 72, thereby avoiding vibrations caused by collisions due to direct contact. If the excavator generates lateral vibrations during operation, the air cylinder 72 will buffer them through the deformation of the annular buffer airbag 71. When the annular airbag is deformed, it has a buffering effect due to the air obstruction inside the annular buffer airbag 71. In addition, the air cylinder 72 will drive the extension ring 73 to limit A relative displacement is generated in the sleeve 74, thereby realizing comprehensive shock absorption protection for the battery body 1, preventing the battery body 1 from being disturbed by severe vibration, and preventing the active material on the electrode plate inside the battery body 1 from falling off, and preventing the active material from forming a local short-circuit channel and blocking the gap between the electrode plates, thereby preventing the problem of irreversible increase of internal resistance inside the battery body 1, and preventing the battery body 1 from having reduced charging efficiency, capacity attenuation, and poor discharge performance. This mechanism enables the excavator battery monitoring device to have the function of battery shock absorption protection, and avoids irreversible damage to the battery internal resistance as much as possible, which can improve the reliability and life of the battery. When the two conductive posts of the battery body 1 are connected to the wiring harness, the wiring harness is passed through the rectangular threading hole 52 and placed on the lower side of the rubber strip 16, and then the positioning bolt 53 is rotated, and the bottom end of the positioning bolt 53 pushes the pressure strip 54 downward, and the pressure strip 54 pushes the rubber strip 16 to squeeze the wiring harness, so as to achieve a stable connection between the side end of the wiring harness and the conductive post of the battery body 1, and is not disturbed by the fluctuations generated by the operation of the buffer protection mechanism 7, so as to ensure the firmness of the connection between the wiring harness and the conductive post of the battery body 1. This mechanism enables the excavator battery monitoring device to effectively improve the stability of the connection between the wiring harness and the battery conductive post, and ensure the reliability of the battery operation; When the excavator battery monitoring device is used on the excavator, the internal resistance of the battery body 1 is also detected in real time by the electronic ohmmeter 12, and the electronic ohmmeter 12 also converts the detected internal resistance value into an electrical signal and transmits it to the PLC controller 13. If the internal resistance value of the battery body 1 detected by the electronic ohmmeter 12 exceeds the battery standard internal resistance range threshold preset by the PLC controller 13, it means that the battery body 1 may be in a low temperature environment. In a low temperature environment, the viscosity of the electrolyte of the battery body 1 increases, the ion diffusion rate slows down, and the internal resistance increases. At this time, the PLC controller 13 controls the first normally open solenoid valve 61 to be energized and closed, and the micro one-way air pump The high-temperature air at the excavator engine is sucked in through the second normally open solenoid valve 62 and the second intake duct 610. After being purified by the intake mechanism 6, the high-temperature air is injected into the air cylinder 72. Then, the high-temperature air is discharged into the top of the hollow shell 2 through the exhaust guide hole 79, the intake circular hole 87 and the intake pipe 68. The temperature around the battery body 1 can be increased. When the high-temperature air is discharged through the intake pipe 68, the temperature sensor 84 also detects the temperature of the air. The temperature sensor 84 sends the detected temperature value to the PLC controller 13 in the form of an electrical signal. If the temperature value of the high-temperature air detected by the temperature sensor 84 is lower than the battery preset by the PLC controller 13, the high-temperature air temperature sensor 84 will detect the temperature of the air. When the optimal working temperature range threshold of the battery is 25℃-30℃, the PLC controller 13 controls the suction power of the micro one-way air pump 91 to increase to the rated maximum power, and by increasing the power of the micro one-way air pump 91, more high-temperature air is sucked into the battery body 1 to meet the need for increasing the temperature around the battery body 1. By increasing the temperature of the working environment of the battery body 1, the viscosity of the electrolyte is reduced, so that the ion diffusion speed in the battery body 1 is accelerated, and the internal resistance is corrected. In this way, the high-temperature air is injected into the battery body 1 for 5 minutes. If the electronic ohmmeter 12 detects that the internal resistance value of the battery body 1 still exceeds PL within these 5 minutes, the high-temperature air is injected into the battery body 1 for 5 minutes. When the PLC controller 13 reaches the battery standard internal resistance range threshold preset by the controller C, it indicates that the internal resistance of the battery body 1 has increased to an irreversible state, such as the irreversible increase of the internal resistance caused by the shedding of the active material on the internal plate of the battery body 1. At this time, the PLC controller 13 controls the alarm 11 to immediately send out an audible and visual alarm, prompting the staff to immediately shut down the excavator, and notify professional maintenance personnel to maintain the battery body 1 in time to avoid the battery body 1 with irreversible internal resistance continuing to work and causing the charging efficiency to decrease, the capacity to decay, and the discharge performance to deteriorate. On the contrary, if it is in a low temperature environment, the temperature around the battery body 1 can be increased to correct the internal resistance; If the electronic ohmmeter 12 detects that the internal resistance value of the battery body 1 is lower than the standard internal resistance range threshold of the battery preset by the PLC controller 13, it means that the battery body 1 may be in a high temperature environment. In the high temperature environment, the viscosity of the electrolyte in the battery body 1 decreases, and the ion diffusion rate is accelerated, causing the internal resistance of the battery body 1 to be excessively reduced. In this case, even if there is no external load, some spontaneous chemical reactions are more likely to occur between the positive and negative electrodes inside the battery body 1, resulting in aggravated self-discharge. Moreover, this reduction in internal resistance will also make the terminal voltage of the battery body 1 rise faster during the charging process. Specifically, the terminal voltage of the battery body 1 may reach or exceed the cut-off voltage in the charging state too quickly during the charging process. The battery body 1 is overcharged, which can cause the active materials on the plates of the battery body 1 to be over-oxidized, generate a large amount of gas, and cause the battery body 1 to bulge. In severe cases, it may even cause a safety accident in which the battery body 1 explodes. At this time, the PLC controller 13 controls the second normally open solenoid valve 62 to be energized and closed, and the micro one-way air pump 91 draws the air inside the excavator cab through the first normally open solenoid valve 61 and the first air intake duct 69. Due to the high temperature environment outside, the staff will turn on the air conditioner in the cab for their own comfort, and form low-temperature air in the cab. Then, the low-temperature air in the excavator cab is injected into the activated carbon adsorption block 66 and the filter sponge block 67 for purification through the first air intake duct 69, and the purified low-temperature air is then discharged through the exhaust The air conduction hole 79, the air inlet hole 87 and the air inlet pipe 68 are discharged into the top of the hollow shell 2, and the temperature around the battery body 1 can be reduced. When the low-temperature air is discharged through the air inlet pipe 68, the temperature sensor 84 will also detect the temperature value of the low-temperature air. If the temperature value of the low-temperature air detected by the temperature sensor 84 exceeds the threshold value of the optimal operating temperature range of the battery preset by the PLC controller 13 of 25°C-30°C, the PLC controller 13 will start the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 81, and the semiconductor refrigeration sheet 81 can reduce the surface temperature of the annular metal heat-conducting frame 82. The low-temperature air can further reduce the temperature after passing through the low-temperature annular metal heat-conducting frame 82. At the same time, the PLC controller 13 also controls the micro one-way air pump 91 to increase the suction power to the rated maximum power. rate, by increasing the power of the micro one-way air pump 91 to draw more low-temperature air to the battery body 1, and meet the need to reduce the temperature around the battery body 1, by reducing the temperature of the working environment of the battery body 1 to increase the viscosity of the electrolyte, so that the ion diffusion rate in the battery body 1 is reduced, the internal resistance is corrected, and the internal resistance of the battery body 1 is always maintained within the standard internal resistance range. In this way, the working environment of the battery body 1 reaches the optimal working temperature range, ensuring that the battery body 1 can be used continuously and reliably. This mechanism enables the excavator battery monitoring device to have the ability to monitor the internal resistance in real time, and can promptly detect the irreversible increase of the internal resistance of the battery, and can promptly remind the battery maintenance. In addition,The device also has the function of automatically adjusting the working environment temperature of the battery, so that the battery can continue to work in the optimal temperature range, avoiding the situation where the internal resistance changes badly due to abnormal temperature changes, and effectively improving the reliability and life of the battery.
