The push rod 13 rotates relative to the fixing plate 14. The push rod 13 can be screwed relative to the fixing plate 14 in the negative direction of the X-axis. The push rod 13 pushes against the second clamping plate 12, so that the second clamping plate 12 slides along the negative direction of the X-axis, thereby making the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 clamp the battery 200.

[0036] In some embodiments, see Figure 3The clamping mechanism 100 further includes a handle 15, which includes a connecting arm 151 and an operating portion 152.

[0037] In some embodiments, see Figures 4 to 7 The clamping mechanism 100 further includes a floating joint 16 and a positioning plate 17, wherein the floating joint 16 is fixedly connected to the second clamping plate 12 via the positioning plate 17. The floating joint 16 is located between the positioning plate 17 and the fixed plate 14, and the positioning plate 17 is located between the second clamping plate 12 and the floating joint 16. The connection method between the positioning plate 17 and the second clamping plate 12 may include, but is not limited to, one or more combined connections such as welding, clamping, and gluing.

[0038] Combination Figures 5 to 7 The positioning plate 17 includes a body 171 and a protrusion 172. The protrusion 172 is fixedly connected to the side of the body 171 away from the second clamping plate 12, and the protrusion 172 protrudes relative to the body 171 along the positive direction of the X-axis. The positioning plate 17 is fixedly connected to the floating joint 16 through the cooperation of the clamping portion and the clamping groove. In this example, the protrusion 172 of the positioning plate 17 is recessed with a clamping groove 1721, and the floating joint 16 is provided with a clamping portion 160, and the clamping portion 160 is clamped in the clamping groove 1721, so that the floating joint 16 is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 17. In other examples, the protrusion 172 of the positioning plate 17 is convexly provided with a clamping portion, and the floating joint 16 is recessed with a clamping groove, and the clamping portion is clamped in the clamping groove, so that the floating joint 16 is fixedly connected to the positioning plate 17.

[0039] The floating joint 16 includes a fixed member 161 and a rotating member 163. The clamping portion 160 is disposed at one end of the fixed member 161 away from the rotating member 163. One end of the fixed member 161 facing the rotating member 163 and one end of the rotating member 163 facing the fixed member 161 are rotatably connected through the cooperation of the rotating head and the receiving groove. One end of the rotating member 163 away from the fixed member 161 is fixedly connected to the push rod 13. One end of the rotating member 163 away from the fixed member 161 is concavely provided with a connecting groove, and the push rod 13 is fixedly inserted into the connecting groove of the rotating member 163, so that the rotating member 163 and the push rod 13 are fixedly connected. The fixing member 161 further includes a rotating head 1611 which is disposed opposite to the clamping portion 160 . An end of the rotating member 163 facing the fixing member 161 is provided with a receiving groove 1631 . The rotating head 1611 is rotatably positioned in the receiving groove 1631 so that the fixing member 161 and the rotating member 163 are rotatably connected.

[0040] In this example, the inner cavity surface of the receiving groove 1631 is spherical, the outer wall surface of the rotating head 1611 is spherical, and the rotating head 1611 can rotate smoothly relative to the inner cavity surface of the receiving groove 1631. The fixing member 161 has an axis line 1613, and the fixing member 161 is symmetrical about the axis line. The outer diameter of the rotating head 1611 increases first and then decreases along the direction of the axis line 1613 and along the positive direction of the X-axis. The inner diameter of the receiving groove 1631 first decreases, then increases, and then decreases along the positive direction of the X-axis. The minimum inner diameter of the receiving groove 1631 is smaller than the maximum outer diameter of the rotating head 1611, and the rotating head 1611 is positioned in the receiving groove 1631 and is not easy to fall off from the receiving groove 1631.

[0041] In other examples, a receiving groove is recessed at one end of the fixed member 161 facing the rotating member 163, and the rotating member 163 includes a rotating head, and the rotating head 1611 is rotatably positioned in the receiving groove 1631, so that the fixed member 161 and the rotating member 163 are rotatably connected. In other examples, the inner cavity surface of the receiving groove 1631 can also be pear-shaped or oval-shaped, and the outer wall surface of the rotating head 1611 cooperates with the inner cavity surface of the receiving groove 1631 and is also pear-shaped or oval-shaped, which is not limited here.

[0042] During the circumferential rotation of the push rod 13, the rotation axis of the push rod 13 may be deflected relative to the X-axis, thereby causing the second clamping plate 12 to slide along the Y-axis, thereby causing the battery 200 to be poorly connected to the discharge circuit, thereby affecting the discharge of the battery 200. In this embodiment, the rotation axis of the push rod 13 is deflected relative to the X-axis direction, and the push rod 13 drives the rotating member 163 to rotate. The rotation axis of the rotating member 163 is deflected relative to the X-axis direction. The rotating head 1611 is rotatably engaged in the receiving groove 1631. The rotating head 1611 can compensate for the deflection of the rotation axis of the push rod 13 relative to the X-axis. The fixing member 161 pushes against the second clamping plate 12 along the negative direction of the X-axis, and then the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 clamp the battery 200. On the other hand, the rotating head 1611 is rotatably engaged in the receiving groove 1631, which can prevent the positioning plate 17 and the second clamping plate 12 from rotating with the push rod 13.

[0043] In some embodiments, the clamping mechanism 100 is used to fix multiple batteries 200, the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 are both long plates, the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 have a certain length along the Y-axis direction, and multiple batteries are arranged at intervals along the length direction of the first clamping plate 11 or the second clamping plate 12. In this way, the clamping mechanism 100 can clamp multiple batteries 200 at the same time, and then discharge multiple batteries 200 at the same time, which can improve the discharge efficiency.

The first conductive column 31 is fixedly penetrated in the first step groove 116 of the first clamping plate 11, and one end of the first conductive column 31 away from the battery 200 extends out of the first clamping plate 11, so as to be conveniently connected to one end of the electrical appliance in the discharge circuit 300. The second clamping plate 12 is provided with a second step groove 126, and the second step groove 126 penetrates the inner and outer wall surfaces of the second clamping plate 12 along the X-axis direction. The second conductive column 32 is fixedly penetrated in the second clamping plate 12, and one end of the second conductive column 32 away from the battery 200 extends out of the second clamping plate 12, so as to be conveniently connected to the other end of the electrical appliance in the discharge circuit 300. When the first clamping plate 11 and the second clamping plate 12 clamp the battery 200, the first conductive post 31 is connected to the first pole 205 of the battery 200 toward one end of the battery 200, and the second conductive post 32 is connected to the second pole 206 of the battery toward one end of the battery 200.
