[0032] The specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below, but it should be understood that the protection scope of the present invention is not limited by the specific embodiments.

[0033] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention provides an auxiliary tool for stud welding for processing an OBC shell, comprising:

[0034] A positioning plate 11 is placed on the surface of the water channel of the OBC housing. A fixing component is provided between the positioning plate 11 and the water channel to define the position of the positioning plate 11;

[0035] A plurality of observation slots 12 are provided on the surface of the positioning plate 11, and the plurality of observation slots 12 are arranged at intervals. The surface of the positioning plate 11 is provided with a plurality of round hole slots 13 and a plurality of special-shaped slots 14, wherein the round hole slots 13 are adapted to the round studs, and the special-shaped slots 14 are adapted to the special-shaped studs;

[0036] It should be noted that the observation slot 12, the circular hole slot 13 and the special-shaped slot 14 are spaced apart on the surface of the positioning plate 11, and the edges of the observation slot 12, the circular hole slot 13 and the special-shaped slot 14 do not contact the edge of the OBC shell or the water channel inside the OBC shell;

[0037] Several limiting rings 15 and several wall-adhering rings 16, wherein the limiting rings 15 are fixedly connected to the edges of the circular hole groove 13 or the special-shaped groove 14, and the wall-adhering rings 16 are fixedly connected to the edges of the circular hole groove 13 or the special-shaped groove 14, and the edges of the wall-adhering rings 16 are in contact with the inner wall edge of the OBC shell or the edge of the waterway;

[0038] It should be noted that the side of the wall-adhering ring 16 in contact with the inner wall of the OBC housing or the waterway is not limited to a specific position;

[0039] In summary, an embodiment of the present invention provides a stud welding auxiliary tooling for OBC shell processing, including a positioning plate 11 that can be placed on the surface of the water channel of the OBC shell, and the positioning plate 11 and the water channel are fixed by a fixing component, so that the position of the positioning plate 11 and the OBC shell can be fixed, and a circular hole groove 13 corresponding to the circular stud and a special-shaped groove 14 corresponding to the special-shaped stud are opened on the surface of the positioning plate 11. After the positioning plate 11 is fixed to the surface of the OBC shell, the circular studs and special-shaped studs can be placed inside the OBC shell at the positions corresponding to the circular hole groove 13 and the special-shaped groove 14. At the same time, a limiting ring 15 and a wall-attached ring 16 are also fixed on the surface of the circular hole groove 13 and the special-shaped groove 14. The limiting ring 15 can further extend the area where the stud is restricted to ensure that the stud is placed inside the OBC shell. After the part is installed, the position of a larger area is restricted to avoid displacement during welding or placement; at the same time, one side of the wall ring 16 is in contact with the OBC shell or the inner wall of the waterway to ensure the stability of the positioning plate 11 during stud welding; thereby ensuring the stability during stud welding, and after the positioning plate 11 is fixed to the surface of the OBC shell, specific studs can be placed directly on the surface of the OBC shell according to the positions of the circular hole groove 13 and the special-shaped groove 14. After all the studs are placed, before welding, it is only necessary to adjust and ensure that all the circular studs and special-shaped studs are perpendicular to the inner wall of the OBC shell. During welding, the laser can be injected from the position of the observation groove 12 to perform welding; during the welding process, the limiting ring 15 and the wall ring 16 will limit the positions of the circular studs and special-shaped studs to ensure that they are in the same position when placed after welding, thereby ensuring welding quality;

[0040] In some specific embodiments, the fixing assembly includes a plurality of positioning holes 21 opened on the surface of the positioning plate 11, and a plurality of fixing holes 22 opened on the surface of the OBC shell. The positioning holes 21 and the fixing holes 22 are used to fix the positioning pins; the edge of the positioning plate 11 is in contact with the edge of the inner wall of the OBC shell;

[0041] Several of the positioning holes 21 are staggered. The staggered positioning holes 21 can disperse the load so that the force borne by the positioning pin is evenly distributed to multiple positions. The risk of deformation or loosening of the positioning plate due to excessive local force is reduced, especially in a vibration or impact environment. The stability of the overall structure can be significantly improved. The staggered positioning holes 21 provide more reference benchmarks for the assembly process. The operator can complete the positioning by quickly aligning the holes in different directions, ensuring that the positioning plate 11 is completely in contact with the inner wall of the OBC shell, and further ensuring the position accuracy of the circular studs and special-shaped studs defined by the positioning plate 11.

[0042] The surface of the positioning plate 11 is provided with a plurality of gap grooves 23, and the gap grooves 23 are all semi-open grooves; by fitting the fixing holes 22 and the positioning holes 21, the positioning plate 11 can be fitted with the inner wall of the OBC shell, and the gap grooves 23 are provided at the edge of the positioning plate 11, so that the positioning plate 11 can be easily separated from the OBC shell by the edge of the positioning plate 11; the gap grooves 23 are set as semi-open grooves, so that the overall edge of the positioning plate 11 is in an uneven state, which can reduce the overall weight of the positioning plate 11 and save materials; at the same time, the gap grooves 23 can also be used as guides or positioning points during assembly, helping the operator to place the positioning plate 11 to the specified position inside the OBC shell more quickly and accurately; after the studs inside the OBC shell are welded and fixed, the positioning plate 11 can be taken out at the gap groove 23 position or the observation groove 12 position to facilitate subsequent operations;

[0043] In some specific embodiments, the lengths of the two adjacent wall-attached rings 16 are different, and the length of the wall-attached ring 16 near the corner of the OBC shell is greater than the length of the adjacent wall-attached ring 16; since the length of the wall-attached ring 16 near the corner of the OBC shell is greater than the length of the adjacent wall-attached ring 16, there are contact points with different heights at the contact position between the positioning plate and the inner wall of the OBC shell. The different heights have relatively different fixing effects, and the length near the corner of the OBC shell is greater, which can effectively ensure that the position of the wall-attached ring 16 and the OBC shell is relatively fixed, and the wear state of the positioning plate 11 or the state of the formed inner wall of the OBC shell can be observed according to the contact state between the different positions of the wall-attached ring 16 and the inside of the OBC shell; the shorter wall-attached ring 16 is set farther away from the corner of the OBC shell, which does not affect the fixing effect; at the same time, after the internal stud welding of the OBC shell is completed, the operator can quickly release the fixed state of the positioning plate 11 and the OBC shell through tools or methods from the position of the shorter wall-attached ring 16, which is convenient for subsequent disassembly;

[0044] In a further embodiment, a connecting block 24 is fixedly connected between adjacent wall-adhering rings 16, one side of the connecting block 24 contacts the inner wall of the OBC shell or the edge of the water tank, and the length of the connecting block 24 is shorter than the length of the wall-adhering ring 16; wall-adhering rings 16 of different heights are provided to facilitate the positioning plate 11 to be pried out from the side of the shorter wall-adhering ring 16, and the shorter connecting block 24 is connected between the two. When the operator applies pressure to the wall-adhering ring 16, the connecting block 24 can disperse the force received, and at the same time, it can avoid the position of adjacent wall-adhering rings from changing, resulting in deformation of the positioning plate 11; at the same time, due to the presence of the connecting block 24 at the corner position, the positioning plate 11 at this position is relatively thicker, and the thickness of the corner of the positioning plate 11 is relatively increased, thereby ensuring the hardness of the corner and avoiding the corner position being worn during the use of the positioning plate 11, which affects the subsequent positioning and use of the positioning plate 11;

[0045] In some specific embodiments, the positioning plate 11 is made of any one of stainless steel, aluminum, iron, graphite, and Teflon. The above materials ensure that the overall positioning plate 11 is relatively strong and not easily deformed, thereby preventing the positioning plate 11 from deforming after long-term use. The service life of the positioning plate 11 is guaranteed, and at the same time, the positioning plate 11 is ensured not to change during the stud welding inside the OBC housing, thereby affecting the position and vertical state of the stud.

[0046] In some specific embodiments, the positioning plate 11 includes two embedded plates 3, the edges of the embedded plates 3 are in contact with the inner wall edge of the OBC shell and the edge of the adjacent water channel, and a plurality of limiting rings 15 and wall-adhering rings 16 are fixedly connected to the surface of the embedded plates 3, and the limiting rings 15 and wall-adhering rings 16 are in contact with the bottom of the OBC shell away from the side of the embedded plates 3; the limiting rings 15 and wall-adhering rings 16 touching the bottom can ensure that the two embedded plates 3 are perpendicular to the OBC shell, and the edges of the embedded plates 3 are in contact with the inner wall edge of the OBC shell and the edge of the adjacent water channel, which can further limit the position of the embedded plates 3, thereby ensuring that the position of the embedded plates 3 will not change after being placed inside the OBC shell and the limiting rings 15 and wall-adhering rings 16 are kept perpendicular to the bottom of the OBC shell, ensuring that the studs placed inside the OBC shell through the embedded plates will not change position during the welding process;

[0047] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention further provides a charger housing, comprising a charger housing 41 and two partition blocks 42. The two partition blocks 42 are fixedly disposed inside the charger housing 41, and a water channel is formed between the two partition blocks 42. The surface of the partition block 42 is provided with a fixing hole 22 for fixing a positioning pin.

[0048] Working principle of the present invention:

[0049] Before placing the studs, first place the positioning plate 11 on the surface of the OBC shell corresponding to the fixing holes 22 and the positioning holes 21, and insert the positioning pins; then insert the corresponding studs from the circular holes and special-shaped holes, and finally move the studs, positioning plate 11 and OBC shell to the welding instrument position for welding.

[0050] The above disclosures are only a few specific embodiments of the present invention. However, the embodiments of the present invention are not limited thereto. Any changes that can be conceived by those skilled in the art should fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
