Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium battery storage, and particularly to an adjustable lithium battery storage frame. Background Art

[0002] Lithium batteries are a type of battery with lithium metal or lithium alloy as the negative electrode material and using a non-aqueous electrolyte solution. Due to the very active chemical properties of lithium metal, when lithium batteries are produced, they often need to be sorted, stored, and placed to facilitate the preservation and use of lithium batteries.

[0003] Currently, a lithium battery storage frame generally consists of several longitudinal beams and cross beams. Both ends of the longitudinal beams and cross beams are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lithium battery storage frame. The longitudinal beams are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the storage frame, and the cross beams are arranged at intervals along the width direction of the storage frame, so that the cross beams and longitudinal beams intersect to form a plurality of independent and regular spaces. Each lithium battery is placed in these spaces surrounded by the longitudinal beams and cross beams to achieve a neat storage effect. However, there are various models of lithium batteries, and the width dimensions of each model are often different. Since the size of the space surrounded by the longitudinal beams and cross beams is fixed, it is necessary to replace the entire lithium battery storage frame for storing different models of lithium batteries, thus increasing the production cost. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to improve and innovate in view of the disadvantages and problems in the background art, and provide an adjustable lithium battery storage frame.

[0005] An adjustable lithium battery storage frame includes a battery storage frame. A number of longitudinal beams extending along the length direction of the battery storage frame and a number of cross beams extending along the width direction of the battery storage frame are arranged at intervals within the battery storage frame. The longitudinal beams are slidably mated with the cross beams. Communication grooves and sliding grooves are formed on the side walls of the battery storage frame at both ends of the longitudinal beams. Both ends of the longitudinal beams are fixedly connected with sliders through connecting blocks. The connecting blocks are slidably mated with the communication grooves, and the sliders are slidably mated with the sliding grooves.

[0006] Further, an upper clamping plate and a lower clamping plate are slidably mated within the sliding grooves. The upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the slider. Screws and slide bars are respectively arranged on both sides of the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate. The middle of the screw is threadedly connected with the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate. Both ends of the screw are rotatably connected to the side wall of the battery storage frame, and an adjusting knob is installed at the top end of the screw. The middle of the slide bar is slidably mated with the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate, and both ends of the slide bar are fixedly connected to the side wall of the battery storage frame.

[0007] Further, scale lines are arranged on the inner wall of the battery storage frame, and the scale lines are arranged at the communication grooves.

[0008] A further solution is that a toothed groove is formed on the upper surface of the slider, and a toothed block adapted to the toothed groove is arranged on the lower surface of the upper clamping plate.

[0009] A further solution is that the top end of the adjusting knob is flush with the top wall of the battery storage box, and a cross groove is formed on the upper surface of the adjusting knob.

[0010] A further solution is that a hollowed-out part is formed on the side wall of the battery storage box.

[0011] A further solution is that the middle part of the bottom wall of the battery storage box is provided with a bottom net.

[0012] A further solution is that the adjusting knobs on the side walls on both sides of the battery storage box are arranged in an inclined symmetrical manner.

[0013] A further solution is that the cross beam is a round tube, and a plurality of cross beams are arranged at intervals along the height direction.

[0014] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the present invention are as follows: The present invention discloses an adjustable lithium battery storage box. Since the two ends of the longitudinal beam are slidably matched with the side wall of the battery storage box, users can easily adjust the distance between the longitudinal beams, and the size of the space enclosed by the longitudinal beam and the cross beam can also change accordingly. Furthermore, it can be compatible with various different models of lithium batteries on the market, improving the flexibility and practicality of the storage box, and at the same time reducing the cost of purchasing a new storage box due to the replacement of the battery model. After the distance between the longitudinal beams is adjusted to the corresponding position according to actual needs, in order to ensure its stability, the present invention ingeniously incorporates a combined locking mechanism of an adjusting knob, a lead screw, a slide bar, an upper clamping plate and a lower clamping plate. Users drive the lead screw to rotate, thereby driving the upper clamping plate and the lower clamping plate to approach each other and clamp the slider, effectively realizing the fixation of the position of the longitudinal beam. In addition, a toothed block structure is designed on the lower surface of the upper clamping plate, which can accurately engage with the toothed groove at the upper end of the slider, further playing a role in limiting the slider, thereby enhancing the stability of the slider position, and effectively preventing the longitudinally adjusted beam from moving unnecessarily during long-term use, thus ensuring the safety and reliability of lithium battery storage.

Detailed implementation manners

[0018] To make the objectives, features, and advantages of the present invention more obvious and understandable, the following will give a detailed description of the specific implementation manners of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0019] Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meaning as commonly understood by those skilled in the technical field to which the present invention belongs. The terms used in the description of the present invention herein are only for the purpose of describing specific implementation manners and are not intended to limit the present invention. The term "and / or" used herein includes any and all combinations of one or more of the related listed items.

[0020] Please refer to Figures 1 - 5 , the present invention provides an adjustable lithium battery storage frame, including a battery storage frame 1. A plurality of longitudinal beams 3 extending along the length direction of the battery storage frame 1 and a plurality of cross beams 4 extending along the width direction of the battery storage frame 1 are spaced apart in the battery storage frame 1, so that the cross beams 4 and the longitudinal beams 3 intersect to form a plurality of independent and regular spaces. A lithium battery is placed in each independent and regular space. The cross beams 4 and the longitudinal beams 3 form a comprehensive and effective limit on the whole body of the lithium battery, ensuring the stability of the lithium battery during storage. At the same time, the lithium batteries are separated from each other, avoiding the possibility of mutual extrusion or collision, and improving the safety of lithium battery storage.

[0021] In this embodiment, the longitudinal beam 3 is slidably engaged with the cross beam 4, that is, the longitudinal beam 3 can slide relative to the cross beam 4 to facilitate the adjustment of the distance between the longitudinal beams 3. The size of the space enclosed by the longitudinal beam 3 and the cross beam 4 can also change accordingly, thereby being able to accommodate various different models of lithium batteries on the market, improving the flexibility and practicality of the battery storage frame 1, and at the same time reducing the cost of purchasing a new battery storage frame 1 due to the replacement of the battery model.

[0022] It should be noted that since the longitudinal beam 3 is slidably engaged with the cross beam 4, it is beneficial for the longitudinal beam 3 to slide more smoothly and will not tilt during the sliding process.

[0023] Specifically, both ends of the cross beam 4 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the battery storage frame 1. The cross beam 4 is a round tube, and multiple cross beams 4 are also arranged at intervals along the height direction at various positions. On the side walls of the battery storage frame 1 at both ends of the longitudinal beam 3, communication grooves 7 and sliding grooves 12 are provided. Both ends of the longitudinal beam 3 are fixedly connected with sliders 9 through connecting blocks 8. The connecting blocks 8 are slidably engaged with the communication grooves 7, while the sliders 9 are slidably engaged with the sliding grooves 12. An upper clamping plate 10 and a lower clamping plate 11 are also slidably engaged in the sliding groove 12. The upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11 are respectively arranged above and below the slider 9. Screw rods 13 and sliding rods 14 are respectively arranged on both sides of the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11. The middle of the screw rod 13 is threadedly connected to the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11, and the corresponding thread directions are opposite. The upper and lower ends of the screw rod 13 are rotatably connected to the side wall of the battery storage frame 1, and an adjustment knob 15 is installed at the top end of the screw rod 13. The middle of the sliding rod 14 is slidably engaged with the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11, and the upper and lower ends of the sliding rod 14 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the battery storage frame 1. Through the mutual cooperation of the adjustment knob 15, the screw rod 13, the sliding rod 14, the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11, the user can drive the screw rod 13 to rotate, thereby driving the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11 to approach or move away from each other. When the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11 move away from each other, it is convenient for the user to sequentially push each longitudinal beam 3 to slide relative to the cross beam 4, so as to realize the adjustment of the distance between the longitudinal beams 3; when the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11 approach each other, it is convenient to clamp the slider 9, effectively realizing the fixation of the position of the longitudinal beam 3 in place, and preventing the longitudinal beam 3 in place from moving unnecessarily during long-term use, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of lithium battery storage.

[0024] It should be noted that the screw rod 13 and the sliding rod 14 are respectively arranged at both ends of the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11, so that the screw rod 13 and the sliding rod 14 can also maintain a certain distance from the outermost slider 9, thus not hindering the sliding of each slider 9 relative to the width direction of the battery storage frame 1, and further not affecting the sliding of the longitudinal beam 3 relative to the width direction of the battery storage frame 1.

[0025] Further, scale lines 6 are engraved on the inner wall of the battery storage frame 1, and the scale lines 6 are arranged at the communication grooves 7. A toothed groove is formed on the upper surface of the slider 9, and a toothed block adapted to the toothed groove is arranged on the lower surface of the upper clamping plate 10. Through the indication of the scale lines 6, it is convenient to accurately adjust the position of the longitudinal beam 3 to ensure that the distance between the longitudinal beams 3 corresponds to the sizes of lithium batteries of different models. Moreover, after the position of the longitudinal beam 3 is adjusted in place, the toothed groove and the toothed block can be accurately engaged together. When the toothed groove and the toothed block are accurately engaged together, the stability of the position of the slider 9 can be enhanced, and it can effectively prevent the longitudinal beam 3 adjusted in place from moving unnecessarily during long-term use, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of lithium battery storage.

[0026] Preferably, the adjusting knobs 15 on the two side walls of the battery storage frame 1 are symmetrically arranged obliquely.

[0027] Preferably, a hollowed-out part 5 is formed on the side wall of the battery storage frame 1. The hollowed-out part 5 is convenient for manual handling on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is convenient for the stacking machine to insert from the hollowed-out part 5 to stack the battery storage frame 1.

[0028] Preferably, the top end of the adjusting knob 15 is flush with the top wall of the battery storage frame 1, which is convenient for stacking the battery storage frames 1 together; and a cross groove is formed on the upper surface of the adjusting knob 15, which is convenient for rotating the adjusting knob 15 through the cross groove, and further convenient for rotating the lead screw 13.

[0029] Preferably, the middle part of the bottom wall of the battery storage frame 1 is a bottom net 2. Since the most used scenario of the battery storage frame 1 is the battery static stage, at this stage, the lithium battery is already charged and there is a risk of fire. A fire sprinkler system is equipped at the stacking place of the battery storage frame 1. In case of fire sprinkling, the bottom net 2 is convenient for drainage.

[0030] The working process of the present invention is as follows: First, the adjusting knob 15 is rotated through the cross groove, and then the lead screw 13 is rotated, so that the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11 move away from each other. Then, each longitudinal beam 3 is pushed to slide relative to the cross beam 4 in turn according to the scale lines 6, so as to adjust the distance between the longitudinal beams 3. The size of the space enclosed by the longitudinal beams 3 and the cross beam 4 can also be changed accordingly, and thus a variety of lithium batteries of different models on the market can be compatible, improving the flexibility and practicability of the battery storage frame 1, and at the same time reducing the cost of purchasing a new battery storage frame 1 due to battery model replacement. When the position of the longitudinal beam 3 is adjusted in place, then the adjusting knob 15 is rotated in the opposite direction through the cross groove, so that the upper clamping plate 10 and the lower clamping plate 11 move closer to each other and clamp the slider 9. At the same time, the toothed block on the upper clamping plate 10 is accurately engaged with the toothed groove at the upper end of the slider 9, playing a role in limiting the slider 9, and it can effectively prevent the longitudinal beam 3 adjusted in place from moving unnecessarily during long-term use, thereby ensuring the safety and reliability of lithium battery storage.
