Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of liquid injection hole sealing, in particular to a lithium ion battery liquid injection hole sealing structure. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries, also known as lithium batteries, mainly rely on the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes to work. Since lithium-ion batteries contain electrolyte, they need to be injected during the production process. At present, in order to inject electrolyte, a small through hole is generally directly processed on the main body of the square aluminum shell lithium-ion battery cover as an injection hole. After the battery is initially injected through the injection hole, the staff needs to temporarily seal the injection hole with a rubber plug, and then perform a normal temperature and high temperature static operation, and then remove the rubber plug for a second injection operation to ensure the accuracy of the electrolyte injection amount. It can be seen that the staff uses the rubber plug to temporarily seal the injection hole.

[0003] At present, the existing rubber plug structure is relatively simple. During use, the staff directly inserts it into the injection hole, and only relies on friction to fix the rubber plug in the injection hole. When the battery is static at high temperature, the pressure inside the battery will increase. When the pressure given to the rubber plug by the internal air pressure is greater than the friction, the rubber plug will be pushed out of the injection hole. At this time, the rubber plug will no longer provide a sealing effect, which may easily cause impurities to enter the battery from the injection hole. For this reason, we propose a lithium-ion battery injection hole sealing structure to solve the above problem. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to solve the shortcomings in the prior art and proposes a sealing structure for a lithium ion battery injection hole.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0023] Reference Figure 1-5 A lithium-ion battery injection hole sealing structure comprises a battery cover 1, a liquid injection hole 2 is provided inside the battery cover 1, and a rubber plug 3 is engaged inside the liquid injection hole 2, a sealing plate 4 is connected to the top of the rubber plug 3, and connecting blocks 5 are symmetrically connected to the two ends of the sealing plate 4, a guide groove 6 is symmetrically provided on the inner wall of the battery cover 1, and an arc groove 7 is provided on the inner wall of the battery cover 1 below the guide groove 6, and the normal insertion of the connecting block 5 can be met by the opening of the guide groove 6, and after the rubber plug 3 and the sealing plate 4 are engaged with the inside of the liquid injection hole 2, the staff can rotate the sealing plate 4 ninety degrees, and the arc groove 7 provided by the arc structure can block the sealing plate 4 to prevent the sealing plate 4 from being easily pushed up.

[0024] Further, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 It can be seen that rubber rings 15 are symmetrically distributed on the outside of the rubber stopper 3, and the cross-section of the rubber ring 15 is set to a semicircular structure. When in use, the rubber ring 15 set with a semicircular structure can further ensure the tightness of the rubber stopper 3 to the inside of the injection hole 2.

[0025] Further, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 It can be seen that the top of the sealing plate 4 is connected to a fixing plate 14, and the fixing plate 14 is arranged as a U-shaped structure. The fixing plate 14 arranged through the U-shaped structure can facilitate the staff to quickly pull the sealing plate 4 up and down, thereby effectively improving the convenience of the device when used.

[0026] Further, see Figure 4 and Figure 5It can be known that slots are respectively provided inside the guide groove 6, and rectangular plates 8 are clamped inside the slots, and the upper side of the rectangular plate 8 is connected to a limiting rod 9. The inner wall of the battery cover 1 is provided with a limiting slot at a position corresponding to the limiting rod 9, and the upper side of the rectangular plate 8 is respectively connected to a vertical rod 11. After the sealing plate 4 is clamped into the inside of the injection hole 2, the staff can rotate the sealing plate 4. At this time, the limiting rod 9 can correspond to the limiting slot provided inside the battery cover 1 to achieve the re-limiting of the sealing plate 4.

[0027] Further, see Figure 4 and Figure 5 It can be known that the top end of the vertical rod 11 extends to the outside of the sealing plate 4, a pushing rod 12 is provided under the fixed plate 14, and the lower side of the pushing rod 12 is fixedly connected to the vertical rod 11. Through the setting of the pushing rod 12, it is convenient for the staff to push down the two groups of vertical rods 11 at the same time, which can effectively improve the convenience of using the device.

[0028] Further, see Figure 5 It can be known that the top end of the limit rod 9 is connected to the connecting rod 10, and the side wall of the connecting rod 10 is set as an arc structure. Through the setting of the connecting rod 10, the top end of the limit rod 9 can be protected. Since the top side wall of the connecting rod 10 is set as an arc structure, it can be ensured that it can be smoothly engaged in the limit groove opened inside the battery cover 1.

[0029] Further, see Figure 4 It can be known that the bottom end of the push rod 12 is connected to a spring 13, a groove is provided at the center position inside the sealing plate 4, and the inner wall of the groove is connected to the bottom end of the spring 13. Through the setting of the spring 13, the push rod 12 can be quickly reset when it stops being subjected to pressure, so as to effectively improve the convenience of using the device.

[0030] Working principle: When the utility model is in use, the staff can install the battery cover 1 on the end face of the lithium battery, and inject the electrolyte into the battery through the injection hole 2. After completing the initial injection, the staff can rotate the connecting block 5 connected to the side of the sealing plate 4 to a position corresponding to the guide groove 6, and then the sealing plate 4 and the rubber plug 3 can be snapped into the injection hole 2 together. At this time, the connecting block 5 connected to the side of the sealing plate 4 can be forced to slide downward along the inner wall of the guide groove 6. When the sealing plate 4 cannot be pushed down, the staff can first press down the push rod 12. As a result, the two groups of vertical rods 11 are stressed at the same time, so as to drive the limiting rod 9 to be embedded in the connecting block 5, so as to realize the storage of the limiting rod 9, and then the staff can manually pinch the fixing plate 14 to rotate the sealing plate 4 by ninety degrees. At this time, the positions of the two groups of limiting rods 9 can correspond to the positions of the limiting grooves opened inside the battery cover 1, so that the limiting rod 9 can be lifted up by the elastic force of the spring 13 and snapped into the battery cover 1, so as to realize the re-limitation of the sealing plate 4, and the rubber plug 3 and the sealing plate 4 cooperate with each other to realize the sealing of the injection hole 2;

[0031] When a secondary liquid injection operation is required, the staff can first press the push rod 12 downward to pull the two sets of limit rods 9 out of the limit grooves, and then rotate the fixing plate 14 ninety degrees in the opposite direction to make the positions of the two sets of connecting blocks 5 correspond to the guide grooves 6. At this time, the staff can pull up the sealing plate 4 to remove it together with the rubber plug 3 from the inside of the liquid injection hole 2. The above is the entire working principle of the utility model.

[0032] In the present invention, the installation method, connection method or setting method of all the components mentioned above are common mechanical methods, and the specific structures, models and coefficient indicators of all its components are its own technology. As long as it can achieve its beneficial effects, it can be implemented, so it will not be elaborated.
