Description

Technical Field

[0002] A hydrogen fuel cell is a power generation device that directly converts the chemical energy of hydrogen and oxygen into electrical energy. Its basic principle is the reverse reaction of water electrolysis, where hydrogen and oxygen are supplied to the anode and cathode respectively.

The hydrogen fuel cell stack is the place where the electrochemical reaction occurs. It is the core component of the hydrogen fuel cell system and maintains the energy output process of the entire fuel cell system. The fuel cell stack is composed of multiple single cells. When working, hydrogen and oxygen are distributed to the bipolar plates of each single cell through the main gas channel of the stack, and are evenly distributed to the electrodes through the bipolar plate guide.

Obviously, the described embodiment is a part of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0032] Refer to the instruction manual Figure 1 The hydrogen fuel cell stack rapid stacking device of this embodiment includes a fixing frame 1 and also includes:

[0034] The pressing mechanism 3 is arranged at the inner top of the fixing frame 1 and is used for pressing the hydrogen fuel cell stack.

[0035] In order to conveniently clamp and fix the hydrogen fuel cell stacks of different sizes, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, the clamping mechanism 2 includes a mounting seat 201, which is fixedly mounted on one side of the bottom inner side of the fixing frame 1, an adjusting screw rod 203 is arranged on the inner wall of one side of the mounting seat 201, and a first motor 204 is arranged on one end of the adjusting screw rod 203, and a clamping plate 205 is threadedly sleeved on the outer walls of both ends of the adjusting screw rod 203, and a mounting groove 206 is opened on the inner wall of the two clamping plates 205 away from the mounting seat 201, and a traction spring 207 is fixedly mounted on the top and bottom of the inner wall of the mounting groove 206, and a movable seat 20 is fixedly mounted on one end of the traction spring 207 away from the inner wall of the mounting groove 206. 8.

The battery stack can be clamped and limited by the two clamping plates 205 and the two blocking plates 211, so that the battery stack remains stable during the stacking process.

[0036] In order to make the connection between the battery stacks more compact, Figure 2-3 and Figure 5 As shown, the pressing mechanism 3 includes a pressing plate 301 and two movable plates 307. A hydraulic cylinder 302 is arranged on the top of the pressing plate 301. A rotating shaft 304 is rotatably installed on the top of the inner wall of the pressing plate 301.

The outer walls at both ends of the cam 306 are movably connected to the two movable plates 307 respectively. The cam 306 is rotated by the operation of the second motor 305, and then the two movable plates 307 can be pushed to extend outward, so that the width of the pressing mechanism 3 can be adjusted, so that the pressing plate 301 and the movable plate 307 can stably press the battery stacks of different sizes.

[0037] In order to keep the clamping plate 205 stable during the adjustment process, Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, a movable groove 202 is provided on the outer wall of one side of the mounting seat 201, and the inner wall of the movable groove 202 is rotatably connected to the adjusting screw rod 203. The two ends of the inner wall of the movable groove 202 are respectively movably connected to the outer wall of one side of the two clamping plates 205. The movable groove 202 can limit the movement of the clamping plates 205, so that the clamping plates 205 remain stable during the adjustment process.

[0039] In order to keep the movable seat 208 stable during the movement, Figure 2 and Figure 4 As shown, a limiting rod 209 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the mounting groove 206, and the top and bottom outer walls of the limiting rod 209 are respectively movably connected to the inner walls of the two movable seats 208 at the same end, and the limiting rod 209 is movably inserted into the inner side of the two traction springs 207 at the same end. The limiting rod 209 and the mounting groove 206 can limit the movement of the movable seat 208, so that the movable seat 208 remains stable during the movement.

[0040] In order to provide power for the height adjustment of the pressing plate 301, as Figure 2 As shown, the top of the fixing frame 1 is fixedly connected to the hydraulic cylinder 302, and the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 302 passes through the top inner wall of the fixing frame 1 and is fixedly connected to the top of the pressure plate 301. The fixing frame 1 can install and fix the hydraulic cylinder 302. The operation of the hydraulic cylinder 302 causes the pressure plate 301 to move downward, thereby pressing the battery stack.

[0041] In order to keep the movable plate 307 stable during the movement, Figure 2 and Figure 5As shown, limiting grooves 303 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the pressure plate 301, and sliders 308 are fixedly installed on both sides of the outer walls of the opposite ends of the two movable plates 307. The two ends of the inner wall of the limiting groove 303 are respectively movably connected to the outer walls of the two sliders 308 on the same side, and a connecting spring 309 is fixedly installed between the two sliders 308 at the same end. The left-view vertical section of the slider 308 and the limiting groove 303 is set to a rectangular structure. The limiting groove 303 can limit the movement of the slider 308, so that the movable plate 307 remains stable during the movement, and the connecting spring 309 can pull and limit the movement of the movable plate 307.

[0042] In order to provide power for the activity of the movable plate 307, as Figure 2-3 and Figure 5 As shown, the inner side of the top of the pressure plate 301 is fixedly connected to the second motor 305, and the second motor 305 is connected to the rotating shaft 304 through an output shaft transmission. The pressure plate 301 can install and fix the second motor 305. The operation of the second motor 305 causes the cam 306 to rotate, thereby pushing the movable plate 307 to extend outward.

[0043] The specific implementation scenario is as follows: when the hydrogen fuel cell stack is being loaded, the single cell is placed at the inner bottom of the fixing frame 1, and then the first motor 204 is operated to rotate the adjusting screw 203, so that the two clamping plates 205 can move relative to or away from each other along the inner wall of the movable groove 202 on the outside thereof, so that the two clamping plates 205 can clamp and fix the two ends of the outer wall of one side of the single cell, and at the same time, the blocking plate 211 can be stretched, and then under the traction of the two traction plates 210 at the same end, The two movable seats 208 at the same end can move relative to each other along the inner wall of the mounting groove 206 on the outer side of the limiting rod 209, thereby extending the traction spring 207. When the blocking plate 211 contacts the outer wall of the single cell away from the mounting seat 201, the blocking plate 211 can stably clamp the outer wall of the single cell away from the mounting seat 201 under the elastic force of the traction spring 207, so that the device can clamp and fix the single cell structure of hydrogen fuel cell stacks of different sizes, thereby allowing the single cell to be The stacking process remains stable, which can facilitate the staff to stack multiple single batteries and avoid offset during the stacking process. Then, the second motor 305 is used to rotate the rotating shaft 304, so that the cam 306 is rotated from a state parallel to the outer wall of one end of the movable plate 307 to a state perpendicular to the outer wall of one end of the movable plate 307, so that the two movable plates 307 can be pushed to extend toward the two ends of the pressure plate 301. At the same time, the limiting groove 303 can limit the movement of the slider 308. The connecting spring 309 is stretched during the movement of the slider 308, and the length of the pressing mechanism 3 can be conveniently adjusted according to the size of the single battery. Then, the hydraulic cylinder 302 is used to move the pressure plate 301 downward, so that the pressure plate 301 and the movable plate 307 can press the stack, thereby improving the efficiency of the hydrogen fuel cell stack. This embodiment specifically solves the problem that the stacking device in the prior art cannot be conveniently adjusted according to the size of the single battery, which makes the stack easily offset during the stacking process.

[0044] Although the utility model has been described in detail above with general descriptions and specific embodiments, it is obvious to those skilled in the art that some modifications or improvements can be made to the utility model. Therefore, these modifications or improvements made without departing from the spirit of the utility model are within the scope of protection claimed by the utility model.
