Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of battery compartments in charging stations, and more specifically, it is an automatic disinfection and sterilization system for battery compartments in charging stations. Background Art

[0002] With the explosive growth in the number of electric vehicles, charging stations, as the "energy refueling stations" for electric vehicles, have seen a sharp increase in their construction scale and usage frequency. The core component of an electric vehicle - the battery - is greatly affected by the environment in which it operates. The battery compartment, as the space where the battery works and is stored, is extremely vulnerable to problems such as moisture, dust, and the growth of microorganisms, which can damage the battery. Research shows that a humid environment can accelerate the corrosion of the battery casing and shorten the battery's service life; while the metabolites produced by the reproduction of microorganisms in the battery compartment can not only contaminate the battery surface but also may cause a short circuit in the internal circuit of the battery, seriously affecting the safety and stability of the battery, and thus increasing the potential risks during the use of electric vehicles.

[0003] Therefore, the present invention provides an automatic disinfection and sterilization system for battery compartments in charging stations. Summary of the Invention

[0032] Working principle: First, place the battery compartment 1 in a flat position. Then, the user places the battery on the top of the placement plate 2. After the placement is completed, start the ultraviolet light plate 61 to emit ultraviolet light to disinfect the battery. At the same time, start the first motor 41 to drive the screw rod 42 to rotate. When the screw rod 42 rotates, it will drive the threaded block 62 to move. When the threaded block 62 moves, it will cause the ultraviolet light plate 61 to move accordingly, so that the irradiation angle of the ultraviolet light plate 61 can be changed. When the first motor 41 drives the screw rod 42, it will also drive the chain 32 to rotate. When the chain 32 rotates, it will drive multiple sets of sprockets 31 to rotate. The rotation of the sprockets 31 will drive multiple sets of screw rods 42 to rotate synchronously, enabling multiple sets of ultraviolet light plates 61 to be adjusted simultaneously. When the ultraviolet light plate 61 moves, start the third motor 92 to drive the driving roller disc 93 to rotate. The rotation of the driving roller disc 93 can drive the annular plate 73 to rotate. When the annular plate 73 rotates, it will drive the cleaning roller brush 83 to move. The cleaning roller brush 83 can prevent collision with the battery after rotation. When the ultraviolet light plate 61 moves to the lower part of the battery, start the second motor 82 and the third motor 92. When the second motor 82 rotates, it will drive the cleaning roller brush 83 to rotate to clean the surface of the battery. At the same time, due to the start of the third motor 92, the driving roller disc 93 can continuously drive the annular plate 73 to rotate, enabling the cleaning roller brush 83 to continuously rotate to clean the battery. During use, the dehumidifier 101 can be started to remove the moisture inside the battery compartment 1 to ensure the safety of the battery. In a cold environment, the heating pipe 110 can be started to heat the inside of the battery compartment 1 so that the battery can be stored at a suitable temperature to improve the efficiency of the battery.
