Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery box air tightness detection, in particular to a battery box cover air tightness detection device. Background Art
[0002] The battery of a new energy vehicle is generally installed in the middle of the chassis, avoiding the front and rear parts that are prone to collision. Since the battery is heavy, installing it in the middle of the chassis is also conducive to lowering the center of gravity of the new energy vehicle and improving the stability of the vehicle body. The battery box that carries the battery is fixed in the middle of the chassis to protect the battery and must have functions such as waterproof, dustproof, and anti-collision. Therefore, the battery box of a new energy vehicle must have good air tightness, and the air tightness of the battery box needs to be tested before leaving the factory. Since the battery box of a new energy vehicle is large in size and heavy in weight, it is generally composed of a seamless connection between the upper and lower covers. The lower cover, as the main component that carries multiple batteries, is welded with multiple components to form a multi-grid structure, so the air tightness test of the lower cover is particularly important.
[0003] After searching, it was found that the application number is CN202211591231.5, and the name is battery box lower cover airtightness detection device and its airtightness detection method and repair method. The application proposes that some current battery box lower cover airtightness detection devices for new energy vehicles have the problem that the joint with the battery box lower cover is not strong enough, and the airtightness level that can be detected is not high enough, which may lead to the risk of not being able to detect some small micro gaps, and water seepage may occur after long-term use. When the battery box lower cover is pressed down, the bottom of the silicone strip is squeezed downward and diffused laterally, so that the opposite side walls of the silicone strip are moved closer to the middle and press the outer end ring side wall of the battery box lower cover, thereby enhancing the sealing effect. Compared with a single-sided flat silicone strip, the silicone strip of the present application has a better sealing effect on the lower cover of the battery box. The risk of air leakage at this joint is low, the detection interference is small, and the result of detecting airtightness is more accurate. However, in actual use, this application requires staff to manually install and disassemble the lower cover of the battery box, and requires transportation and transfer. The lower cover of the battery box is heavy and the operation is more troublesome. At this stage, the method of using a robot for transportation cannot simultaneously fix the sealing of the battery box cover, which is also more troublesome and can be further improved. At the same time, the sealing structure of this application is more precise, requiring staff to perform precise docking, which also increases the inconvenience of operation and can be further improved.
[0004] Currently, no effective solution has been proposed for the problems in the related technologies. Utility Model Content
