They have gradually replaced lead-acid batteries and nickel-cadmium batteries and become the mainstream of power batteries. Lithium battery packs are composed of several lithium batteries connected in series and parallel. In order to better protect the lithium battery, a protective casing is usually installed on the lithium battery when in use.

[0003] Announcement No. CN218677384U discloses a protective structure for a small lithium battery pack. A protective plate is provided on the side of the protective box body. The protective plate is a high-temperature resistant elastic rubber plate. It is resistant to high temperatures and has a good buffering effect. It has strong elasticity and obvious rebound effect and is almost not deformed due to collision. The protective plate is provided with heat dissipation holes to dissipate heat when the lithium battery pack is working, ensuring a good working environment for the lithium battery. A radiator is provided in the protective box body to dissipate heat inside the protective box body, thereby improving the heat dissipation performance. A spring seat and a shock-absorbing spring are provided at the bottom of the support rod to prevent damage to the lithium battery due to collisions between the upper and lower parts of the protective box body due to severe vibration, thereby improving the overall buffering and shock-resistant performance of the protective box body. The device has a simple structure, is easy to operate, and is easy to disassemble. It is convenient for installation, disassembly, and transportation of small lithium battery packs, thereby increasing the service life of the lithium battery packs. However, the following problems still exist in the actual use of this patent:

[0004] Although the protective structure for the small lithium battery pack can achieve the safety protection of the lithium battery pack, during the use of the lithium battery pack, a single lithium battery may be damaged due to its own quality or external reasons, which not only affects the service life of the lithium battery, but also may cause the spontaneous combustion of the single lithium battery in severe cases, thereby having a certain impact on other lithium batteries. No relevant protective structure is set to protect the single lithium battery, which may cause the entire lithium battery pack to burn. When the entire lithium battery pack burns, no corresponding detachment protective structure is set to protect the lithium battery pack, which may cause the device using the lithium battery pack to burn, which is not conducive to the safety of the entire device.

[0005] Therefore, a protective structure for a lithium battery pack is proposed to solve the above-mentioned problems. Summary of the Invention

[0021] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: the protective structure for a lithium battery pack moves the fixed side plate inward, and under the action of the support baffle and the through hole, the support hook can slide. When the support hook is separated from the support baffle, the support hook is lifted under the tension of the connecting spring, and the annular connecting wire moves to the top of the conductive connector to connect the line. The rotation of the rotating baffle can be achieved by utilizing the characteristics of the meshing connection between the connecting rack and the rotating gear. Under the action of the sealing baffle, the second protective bracket can be closed. In the event of spontaneous combustion or explosion of the lithium battery body, safety protection can be provided by the second protective bracket. The specific contents are as follows:

[0022] 1. By setting up a temperature detection mechanism, not only can the heat dissipation mesh plate be used to ventilate and dissipate heat inside the first protective bracket, but the conductive connector and the connecting wire can be used to connect the lithium battery body in series. A temperature sensor is provided inside the first protective bracket. When the temperature of the lithium battery body exceeds 60 degrees Celsius, it may cause the chemical reaction inside the battery to intensify, causing heat accumulation, and eventually may cause the battery to burn or explode. Therefore, the opening and closing motor is started by the PLC controller to drive the first sprocket transmission assembly and the opening and closing two-way threaded rod to rotate, so that the opening and closing threaded sleeve moves relative to the outside of the opening and closing two-way threaded rod while driving the opening and closing support plate and the fixed side plate to move relative to each other, so that the lithium battery body can fall. At this time, the connecting wire is separated from the conductive connector, the lithium battery body is disconnected, and falls into the second protective bracket at the bottom for isolation, thereby improving the safety of the battery pack. At the same time, the fixed side plate is moved inward, and under the action of the support baffle and the through hole, the support hook can slide. When the support hook is separated from the support baffle, Under the pulling force of the connecting spring, the support hook rises, and at the same time, the annular connecting wire moves to the top of the conductive connector to connect the line. When one of the lithium battery bodies of the lithium battery pack is damaged, the lithium battery body can be used normally. The temperature sensor and PLC controller are existing technologies, so this case does not provide a detailed description of their specific structure and working principle. The second link transmission assembly and the expansion bidirectional threaded rod are driven to rotate by the expansion knob, so that the expansion threaded sleeve drives the expansion baffle to move relative to each other, and the top of the first protective bracket can be opened to install and remove the lithium battery body. When all lithium batteries are at risk of high-temperature explosion, the connecting column drives the clamping bracket to descend. Under the action of the clamping rotating rod, the clamping sliding sleeve can slide on the outside of the clamping sliding rod, so that the clamping sliding sleeve drives the clamping arm to expand, and the lithium battery pack can be automatically separated from the user body, thereby providing safety protection for the user body and preventing the lithium battery pack from spontaneous combustion or explosion, thereby causing damage to the user body.

[0023] 2. By setting up a safety protection mechanism, not only can the elastic force of the closed spring be utilized to make the high-temperature lithium battery body fall to the top of the closed baffle, but under the action of the closed rotating rod, the closed baffle is slowly rotated, so that the lithium battery body falls to the top of the protective airbag, and the airbag plug is squeezed out, and the air inside the protective airbag slowly flows out, and finally the lithium battery body falls to the top of the limiting splint, and the gravity of the lithium battery body is used to drive the limiting splint to descend. Under the action of the limiting rotating rod, the limiting sliding sleeve can slide on the outside of the limiting sliding rod, driving the limiting bracket to move relatively, thereby limiting the lithium battery body. When the rotating baffle is in an inclined state, the normal heat dissipation of the lithium battery body can be achieved. When all the lithium battery bodies have high temperature, under the action of gravity, the connecting sliding rod squeezes the connecting bottom plate to pull the supporting spring to extend, and at the same time the connecting bottom plate drives the connecting rack to descend. The rotation of the rotating baffle can be achieved by utilizing the characteristics of the meshing connection between the connecting rack and the rotating gear. Under the action of the sealing baffle, the second protective bracket can be closed. In the case of spontaneous combustion or explosion of the lithium battery body, the second protective bracket can be used for safety protection, thereby reducing the impact force generated by the explosion of the lithium battery body and improving the safety of the lithium battery pack.

A first sprocket limiting cover 110 is fixedly installed on one side of the bottom of the first protective bracket 101, and an opening and closing motor 111 is fixedly installed on one side of the inner side of the first sprocket limiting cover 110. The output end of the opening and closing motor 111 is fixedly connected to the first sprocket transmission assembly 112, and an opening and closing bidirectional threaded rod 113 is symmetrically installed on one side of the first sprocket transmission assembly 112. The outer sides of the two opening and closing bidirectional threaded rods 113 are symmetrically threaded with opening and closing threaded sleeves 114. The top of each opening and closing threaded sleeve 114 is fixedly installed with an opening and closing support plate 115, and a fixed side plate 116 is fixedly installed on one side of the opening and closing support plate 115. A support baffle 117 is fixedly installed on the top of the fixed side plate 116. A through hole 118 is provided on the top of the fixed side plate 116. The support hook 109 is slidably connected to the fixed side plate 116 through the through hole 118. The lithium battery body 119 is placed on the top of the opening and closing support plate 115.

The interior of the first protective bracket 101 is provided with Temperature sensor. When the temperature of the lithium battery body 119 exceeds sixty degrees Celsius, it may cause the chemical reaction inside the battery to intensify, causing heat accumulation, and eventually causing the battery to burn or explode. Therefore, the opening and closing motor 111 is started by the PLC controller to drive the first sprocket transmission assembly 112 and the opening and closing bidirectional threaded rod 113 to rotate, so that the opening and closing threaded sleeve 114 moves relative to the outside of the opening and closing bidirectional threaded rod 113, while driving the opening and closing support plate 115 and the fixed side plate 116 to move relative to each other, which can make the lithium battery body 119 fall. At this time, the connecting wire 120 is separated from the conductive connector 103, the lithium battery body 119 is disconnected, and falls into the second protective bracket 201 at the bottom for isolation, thereby improving the safety of the battery pack.

When one of the lithium battery bodies 119 of the lithium battery pack is damaged, the lithium battery body 119 can be used normally. The temperature sensor and PLC controller are existing technologies, so this case does not provide a detailed description of their specific structure and working principle. The second link transmission assembly 123 and the unfolding bidirectional threaded rod 124 are driven to rotate by the unfolding knob 122, so that the unfolding threaded sleeve 125 drives the unfolding baffle 126 to move relative to each other, and the top of the first protective bracket 101 can be opened, thereby performing the installation and disassembly of the lithium battery body 119.

Under the action of the closed rotating rod 205, the closed baffle 206 is slowly rotated, so that the lithium battery body 119 19 falls into the top of the protective airbag 224 and squeezes out the airbag plug 225.

A temperature sensor is provided inside the first protective bracket 101. When the temperature of the lithium battery body 119 exceeds sixty degrees Celsius, it may cause the chemical reaction inside the battery to intensify, causing heat accumulation, and eventually may cause the battery to burn or explode. Therefore, the opening and closing motor 111 is started by the PLC controller to drive the first sprocket transmission assembly 112 and the opening and closing bidirectional threaded rod 113 to rotate, so that the opening and closing threaded sleeve 114 moves relative to the outside of the opening and closing bidirectional threaded rod 113, while driving the opening and closing support plate 115 and the fixed side plate 116 to move relative to each other, so that the lithium battery body 119 can fall. At this time, the connecting wire 120 is separated from the conductive connector 103, the lithium battery body 119 is disconnected, and falls into the second protective bracket 201 at the bottom for isolation, thereby improving the safety of the battery pack.

[0043] Secondly, the fixed side plate 116 is moved inward, and the sliding of the support hook 109 can be achieved under the action of the support baffle 117 and the through hole 118. When the support hook 109 is separated from the support baffle 117, the support hook 109 rises under the tension of the connecting spring 107, and the annular connecting wire 108 moves to the top of the conductive connector 103 to connect the line. When one of the lithium battery bodies 119 of the lithium battery pack is damaged, the lithium battery body 119 can be used normally. The temperature sensor and PLC controller are existing technologies, so this case does not describe their specific structure and working principle in detail. By unfolding the knob 122, the second link transmission component 123 and The bidirectional threaded rod 124 is unfolded and rotated, so that the unfolding threaded sleeve 125 drives the unfolding baffle 126 to move relative to each other, and the top of the first protective bracket 101 can be opened, so that the lithium battery body 119 can be installed and disassembled. When all lithium batteries are at risk of high-temperature explosion, the connecting column 223 drives the clamping bracket 133 to descend. Under the action of the clamping rotating rod 129, the clamping sliding sleeve 130 can slide on the outside of the clamping sliding rod 131, so that the clamping sliding sleeve 130 drives the clamping arm 134 to unfold, and the lithium battery pack can be automatically separated from the user body, thereby providing safety protection for the user body and avoiding spontaneous combustion or explosion of the lithium battery pack, which may cause damage to the user body.

[0044] Finally, by utilizing the elastic force of the closing spring 204, when the high-temperature lithium battery body 119 falls onto the top of the closing baffle 206, under the action of the closing rotating rod 205, the closing baffle 206 is slowly rotated, causing the lithium battery body 119 to fall onto the top of the protective airbag 224 and squeeze out the airbag plug 225. The air inside the protective airbag 224 slowly flows out, and finally the lithium battery body 119 falls onto the top of the limiting clamping plate 214. The gravity of the lithium battery body 119 itself drives the limiting clamping plate 214 to descend. Under the action of the limiting rotating rod 209, the limiting sliding sleeve 210 can slide on the outside of the limiting sliding rod 211, driving the limiting bracket 213 to move relatively, thereby limiting the lithium battery body 119. At this time, the rotating baffle 205 The plate 220 is in an inclined state, which can achieve normal heat dissipation of the lithium battery body 119. When all the lithium battery bodies 119 have high temperatures, under the action of gravity, the connecting sliding rod 215 squeezes the connecting bottom plate 217 to pull the supporting spring 216 to extend, and at the same time, the connecting bottom plate 217 drives the connecting rack 218 to descend. By utilizing the characteristics of the meshing connection between the connecting rack 218 and the rotating gear 219, the rotation of the rotating baffle 220 can be achieved. Under the action of the sealing baffle 221, the second protective bracket 201 can be closed. In the case of spontaneous combustion or explosion of the lithium battery body 119, safety protection can be provided by the second protective bracket 201, thereby reducing the impact force generated by the explosion of the lithium battery body 119 and improving the safety of the lithium battery pack.
