[0029] In order to more clearly illustrate the technical solutions of the embodiments of the present application, the following is a brief introduction to the drawings required for the description of the embodiments. Obviously, the drawings described below are only some examples or embodiments of the present application. For ordinary technicians in this field, the present application can also be applied to other similar scenarios based on these drawings without creative work. Unless it is obvious from the language environment or otherwise explained, the same reference numerals in the figures represent the same structure or operation.
[0030] Unless otherwise specifically stated, the relative arrangement of the components and steps, numerical expressions and numerical values described in these embodiments do not limit the scope of the present application. For ease of description, the sizes of the various parts shown in the drawings are not drawn according to the actual proportional relationship.

The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.
[0032] Embodiment 1
[0033] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a bracket for testing lithium-ion batteries according to an embodiment of the utility model. Figure 2 yes Figure 1 Front view of the middle bracket, Figure 3 yes Figure 2 Side view of the middle bracket, see Figure 1 to Figure 3As shown, the structure of the bracket 10 of this embodiment includes a bracket 110 and a bracket 120, wherein the bracket 110 includes a left support member 111 and a right support member 112, the left support member 111 is fixedly connected to the right support member 112, and the angle formed by the supporting surface of the left support member 111 and the supporting surface of the right support member 112 is less than 180°; the bracket 120 is located in the bracket 110, and the bracket 120 is composed of a left groove 121 located in the left support member 111 and a right groove 122 located in the right support member 112.
[0034] In order to meet the requirements of lithium-ion battery testing, especially CT testing requirements, so that the testing process can proceed smoothly, this embodiment designs a new type of bracket 10. As mentioned above, the bracket 10 has a bracket 120. When the bracket 10 is used, the lithium-ion battery to be tested for CT is placed in the bracket 120 of the bracket 10. In addition, in most cases, the size of the bracket 120 (mainly the width) is the same as the size of the lithium-ion battery (mainly the width) or the size of the bracket 120 is slightly larger than the size of the lithium-ion battery, ensuring that the lithium-ion battery can be placed in the bracket 120. It can be seen that because the bracket 120 has a limiting effect on the battery in space, the lithium-ion battery can be stably placed on the bracket 10. In this way, the test area of the battery to be tested can be quickly found during the battery test, shortening the time for adjusting the battery to be tested.
[0035] In one example, the angle formed by the support surface of the left support member 111 and the support surface of the right support member 112 is a right angle, which meets the testing requirements of square shell (square structure) lithium-ion batteries.
[0036] refer to Figure 2 As shown, the support surface F1 of the left support member 111 and the support surface F2 of the right support member 112, then the angle formed by F1 and F1 is α. When α is a right angle, that is, α=90°, the angle of the bracket 120 is best matched with the square structure battery, and the space restriction of the lithium-ion battery is more effective, which can prevent the lithium-ion battery from moving or shaking.
[0037] In one example, the height a of the left support member 111 is 55 mm to 65 mm, preferably 60 mm, and the height b of the right support member 112 is 90 mm to 100 mm, preferably 95 mm. This structure can be adapted to most lithium-ion battery sizes so as to better support both sides of the lithium-ion battery, so that the bracket 10 has a better stability effect during the test process.
[0038] In one example, the width c of the bracket 120 is 70 mm to 75 mm, preferably 71.5 mm, and the depth d is 10 mm to 15 mm, preferably 10 mm. This structure can be applied to most lithium-ion battery sizes to prevent the lithium-ion battery from shaking during the test, causing unclear CT test patterns and affecting the test results.
[0039] In one example, the bracket 10 further includes a base 130 , which is connected below the bracket 110 .
[0040] In this embodiment, the base 130 is also provided based on the requirement of stabilizing the lithium-ion battery. Compared with the bracket 10 without the base 130, the bracket 10 with the base 130 has the advantages that, on the one hand, the weight of the entire bracket 10 is increased, and the bracket 10 is not easy to shake; on the other hand, the projection area of the base 130 is larger than the projection area of the bracket 110, so that the bracket 10 has a larger support surface, further improving the stabilization effect of the bracket 10 on the lithium-ion battery.
[0041] In one example, the length e of the base 130 is 287 mm to 292 mm, preferably 288.8 mm, and the height f is 68 mm to 73 mm, preferably 70 mm. The base 130 is shorter than a general CT test tray, and can fix the lithium-ion battery to be tested inside the bracket 10 to prevent the bracket 10 from hitting the ray tube generator and other instruments during rotation. There is no special requirement for the width g of the base 130, as long as it can better support the bracket 110, and the width g can generally be selected to be 143 mm.
[0042] In one example, the bracket 10 is an integrally formed bracket. The bracket 10 manufactured in an integrally formed manner has more stable quality, better consistency, and can save manufacturing costs.
[0043] In one example, the material of the bracket 10 is expandable polystyrene (EPS), especially high-density EPS material. The density of this material is much lower than the density of the lithium-ion battery to be tested, and will not affect the test result of the lithium-ion battery.
[0044] When using the bracket 10 of this embodiment, first fix the bracket 10 on the CT test tray, align the center of the bracket 10 with the center of the test tray, then place the lithium-ion battery to be tested in the bracket 120 of the bracket 10, and place one corner of the lithium-ion battery (such as the right angle of the square shell battery) at the angle of the bracket 120, and finally put the CT test tray with the lithium-ion battery into the test instrument for testing. Figure 6 shown.
[0045] The bracket 10 for lithium-ion battery testing provided in this embodiment is provided with a bracket 110 and a bracket 120, the bracket 110 includes a left support member 111 and a right support member 112, the left support member 111 is fixedly connected to the right support member 112, and the angle formed by the support surface of the left support member 111 and the support surface of the right support member 112 is less than 180°, the bracket 120 is located in the bracket 110, and the bracket 120 is composed of a left groove 121 located in the left support member 111 and a right groove 122 located in the right support member 112, so that the battery to be tested can be quickly fixed on the bracket 10, and the battery to be tested can be effectively stabilized, so that the test area of the battery to be tested can be quickly found during the test, and the time for adjusting the battery to be tested can be shortened to meet the test requirements of batteries with different structures.
[0046] Embodiment 2
[0047] Figure 4 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a support for lithium-ion battery testing according to another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 4 As shown, the structure of the bracket 10 of this embodiment includes a bracket 110 and a bracket 120, wherein the bracket 110 includes a left support member 111 and a right support member 112, the left support member 111 is fixedly connected to the right support member 112, and the angle formed by the support surface of the left support member 111 and the support surface of the right support member 112 is less than 180°; the bracket 120 is located in the bracket 110, and the bracket 120 is composed of a left groove 121 located in the left support member 111 and a right groove 122 located in the right support member 112; a rotating shaft 113 is provided at the lower part of the bracket 110, and a slot is provided at the upper part of the base 130, and the rotating shaft 113 is placed in the slot.
[0048] In this embodiment, the bracket 110 and the base 130 are not fixedly connected, and the rotating shaft 113 cooperates with the slotted structure to achieve the effect of the bracket 110 rotating around the rotating shaft 113 on the base 130. The above structure is often used in the scene where the lithium-ion battery to be tested needs to be rotated during the test process. Only the upper bracket 110 can be rotated without rotating the entire bracket 10, which is more labor-saving and efficient.
[0049] In one example, a bearing 131 is fixed in the slot, and the rotating shaft 113 is fixed to the inner ring of the bearing 131 .
[0050] refer to Figure 5 As shown, Figure 5 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of a bracket for testing lithium-ion batteries according to another embodiment of the present invention. Figure 2 A bearing 131 is arranged in the slot, and the rotation process of the bracket 110 is smoother through the cooperation of the rotating shaft 113 and the bearing 131, thereby further improving the rotation efficiency of the bracket 110.
[0051] When using the bracket 10 of this embodiment, first fix the bracket 10 on the CT test tray, align the center of the bracket 10 with the center of the test tray, then place the lithium-ion battery to be tested in the bracket 120 of the bracket 10, and place one corner of the lithium-ion battery (such as the right angle of the square shell battery) at the angle of the bracket 120, and finally put the CT test tray with the lithium-ion battery into the test instrument for testing. During the test process or other situations where it is necessary to rotate the lithium-ion battery to be tested, the bracket 110 can be directly rotated.
[0052] The bracket 10 for lithium-ion battery testing provided in this embodiment is provided with a bracket 110 and a bracket 120. The bracket 110 includes a left support member 111 and a right support member 112. The left support member 111 is fixedly connected to the right support member 112, and the angle formed by the support surface of the left support member 111 and the support surface of the right support member 112 is less than 180°. The bracket 120 is located in the bracket 110, and the bracket 120 is composed of a left groove 121 located in the left support member 111 and a right groove 122 located in the right support member 112. At the same time, a rotating shaft 113 is provided at the lower part of the bracket 110, and a groove is provided at the upper part of the base 130. The rotating shaft 113 is placed in the groove, which can not only enable the bracket 10 to better stabilize the lithium-ion battery, but also enable the lithium-ion battery to rotate efficiently, thereby meeting more battery testing requirements.
