Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of fuel cell auxiliary mechanisms, in particular to a rapid pressure relief and explosion-proof mechanism for a fuel cell. Background Art
[0002] A fuel cell is a chemical device that converts the chemical energy of a fuel directly into electrical energy, also known as an electrochemical generator. Since fuel cells convert the Gibbs free energy portion of the chemical energy of the fuel into electrical energy through an electrochemical reaction, they are not limited by the Carnot cycle effect and are therefore more efficient. In addition, fuel cells use fuel and oxygen as raw materials and have no mechanical transmission parts, so they emit very little harmful gas and have a long service life. However, fuel cells are easily disturbed during operation or charging and discharging, resulting in excessive internal pressure causing an explosion. Therefore, when making fuel cells, workers generally install a pressure relief and explosion-proof mechanism inside them to ensure the safety of the fuel cell during operation.
[0003] However, the current pressure relief and explosion-proof mechanism still has some shortcomings. For example, the existing pressure relief and explosion-proof mechanism has a poor flame retardant effect, which results in the failure to promptly prevent the spread of fire when the fuel cell protected by the pressure relief and explosion-proof mechanism accidentally explodes and spontaneously ignites. This can easily slow down the user's rescue time and increase the user's economic losses, resulting in certain usage defects. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a rapid pressure relief explosion-proof mechanism for a fuel cell to solve the problems raised in the above-mentioned background technology.

[0008] Preferably, the outer dimensions of the sealing cover are completely consistent with the inner dimensions of the positioning groove, and the sealing cover forms a snap-fit structure with the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box through the positioning groove.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:
[0013] 1. The utility model provides a hot melt adhesive sealing port, so that when the fuel cell body accidentally spontaneously ignites during operation, the hot melt adhesive sealing port can gradually begin to melt as the temperature in the protective box increases, so that the dry powder fire extinguishing agent stored in the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box can automatically fall down to achieve a certain fire extinguishing and flame retardant effect, thereby avoiding the situation where the fuel cell protected by the pressure relief explosion-proof mechanism accidentally explodes and spontaneously ignites and cannot prevent the spread of fire in time, resulting in a shortened rescue time for users or an increase in economic losses caused by the disaster. In addition, the provided limit grooves, sealing plates, positioning grooves, sealing covers and connecting blocks make it easy for staff to quickly disassemble and assemble the flame retardant components, thereby providing convenience for staff to add dry powder fire extinguishing agent to the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box.
[0014] 2. The utility model provides a guide slider so that when the user rotates the threaded adjustment rod, the positioning plate can move along the top of the protective box toward the side of the fuel cell body. Then, through the cooperation of the clamping plate, the positioning components on both sides can firmly fix the fuel cell body on the bottom inner surface of the protective box. Then, through the wiring port opened on the back of the protective box, it is convenient for the staff to perform wiring operations on the fuel cell body, thereby providing convenience for the staff's subsequent maintenance work.

The outer size of the sealing cover 55 is completely consistent with the inner size of the positioning groove 54, and the sealing cover 55 forms a snap-fit structure with the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box 52 through the positioning groove 54. By setting the sealing cover 55 and the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box 52 in a snap-fit structure, the sealing cover 55 is convenient for the staff to quickly disassemble and assemble, thereby providing convenience for the staff to add dry powder fire extinguishing agent, and connecting blocks 56 are symmetrically installed on the left and right sides of the sealing cover 55, and the fuel cell body 6 is movably installed on the bottom inner surface of the protective box 1.
[0023] Embodiment 2
[0024] like Figure 1-Figure 3As shown, the left and right sides of the protective box 1 are symmetrically embedded with a pressure relief valve 2, and the outer surface of the protective box 1 is rotatably connected to a protective door 3 through a hinge, and the bottom inner surface of the protective box 1 is movably installed with a fuel cell body 6, and the inner surface of the protective box 1 is slidably connected with a positioning assembly 7, the positioning assembly 7 includes a positioning plate 71, a threaded adjustment rod 72, a guide slider 73 and a clamping plate 74, and the side of the positioning plate 71 is rotatably connected with the threaded adjustment rod 72, and the bottom of the positioning plate 71 is symmetrically installed with a guide slider 73, the bottom of the positioning plate 71 is fixedly connected to the top of the guide slider 73, and the positioning plate 71 is connected to the protective box 1 through the guide slider 73. The sliding structure is formed by setting the positioning plate 71 and the protective box 1 as the sliding structure, so that the positioning plate 71 is more stable when moving along the inner surface of the protective box 1, and the other side of the positioning plate 71 is symmetrically installed with a clamping plate 74, and the end of the clamping plate 74 is fixedly connected to the side of the positioning plate 71, and the clamping plate 74 and the positioning plate 71 form a fixed structure. By setting the clamping plate 74 and the positioning plate 71 as the fixed structure, the clamping plate 74 will not get loose during auxiliary positioning, and at the same time, the side of the threaded adjustment rod 72 is connected to the internal thread of the protective box 1, and the left and right sides of the protective box 1 are embedded with a flame-retardant dust-proof heat dissipation net 8.
[0025] During actual use, the staff pours the dry powder fire extinguishing agent into the interior of the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box 52, and then installs the sealing cover 55 on the end of the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box 52 through the cooperation of the positioning groove 54, and then rotates the bolt to fix the connecting block 56 and the dry powder fire extinguishing agent storage box 52 to complete the installation of the sealing cover 55.

When the fuel cell body 6 is fixed, the staff completes the wiring work of the fuel cell body 6 through the wiring port on the back of the protective box 1. Finally, the staff closes the protective door 3 by rotating the hinge and installs the mechanism together with the fuel cell to the required equipment. As the fuel cell body 6 runs, the pressure in the protective box 1 is prone to rise. At this time, the pressure relief valve 2 can quickly relieve the pressure inside the protective box 1, so as to improve the safety of the fuel cell body 6 when in use. However, when the fuel cell body 6 spontaneously ignites, the temperature in the protective box 1 will gradually rise.
