[0010] Preferably, the hollow tube is rotatably connected to the collar via the connecting shaft, the inner ring diameter of the collar is equal to the diameter of the connecting shaft, and the cross-sectional shape of the hollow tube is annular.

[0011] Preferably, the embedded tube has a triangular cross-sectional shape, and the embedded tube with a triangular cross-sectional shape has good bending resistance. The length of the embedded tube is equal to the length of the filling cotton, and a buffer pad is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate body.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of the utility model are:

[0020] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] Embodiment 1

[0022] See also Figure 1 , Figure 2 The figure shows a protective bottom plate structure for a lithium iron phosphate battery for a vehicle, including a bottom plate body 1, and also includes a plurality of protective structures 2 installed on the lower side of the bottom plate body 1 and used to protect the lithium iron phosphate battery, and the plurality of protective structures 2 are distributed at equal distances. The protective structure 2 includes a hollow tube 201 located on the lower side of the bottom plate body 1, and connecting shafts 202 are fixedly embedded at both ends of the hollow tube 201. A ring 203 is movably sleeved on the outer side of the connecting shaft 202, and a pin 204 is fixedly embedded on the outer side of the ring 203.

[0023] See also Figure 2 The pin 204 passes through the bottom plate body 1, and the pin 204 can move up and down inside the bottom plate body 1, and the cross-sectional shape of the pin 204 is circular.

[0024] See also Figure 3 The upper end of the pin 204 is fixedly sleeved with an anti-slip sheet 205, which can prevent the pin 204 from detaching from the base plate body 1. The outer side of the pin 204 is located between the base plate body 1 and the ring 203 and is movably sleeved with a spring 206. The two ends of the spring 206 are respectively movably abutted against the base plate body 1 and the ring 203. The spring 206 can drive the pin 204 to move downward, and an embedded tube 207 is fixedly embedded in the interior of the hollow tube 201.

[0025] See also Figure 4 The space between the embedded tube 207 and the hollow tube 201 and the inside of the embedded tube 207 are filled with filling cotton 208. The embedded tube 207 and the hollow tube 201 are fixedly welded. The hollow tube 201 is rotatably connected to the ring 203 through the connecting shaft 202. The inner ring diameter of the ring 203 is equal to the diameter of the connecting shaft 202. The cross-sectional shape of the hollow tube 201 is circular.

[0026] The working principle of protecting lithium batteries: when the protective structure 2 hits an obstacle on the road, the obstacle squeezes the hollow tube 201 in the protective structure 2. Under the condition that the pin 204 can move up and down inside the bottom plate body 1, the hollow tube 201 is squeezed by the obstacle and moves up, which is beneficial to buffer the hollow tube 201 and prevent the hollow tube 201 from directly hitting the obstacle. After the obstacle squeezes the hollow tube 201, the electric vehicle continues to drive, causing the hollow tube 201 to roll on the surface of the obstacle, thereby reducing the friction between the hollow tube 201 and the obstacle, preventing the bottom plate body 1 from directly scratching the obstacle and causing deformation, thereby reducing the possibility of the bottom plate body 1 deforming and squeezing the lithium iron phosphate battery, and can protect the lithium iron phosphate battery installed on the bottom plate body 1.

[0027] Embodiment 2

[0028] See also Figure 4 This embodiment further illustrates the first embodiment. The cross-sectional shape of the embedded tube 207 is triangular. The embedded tube 207 with a triangular cross-sectional shape has good bending resistance. The length of the embedded tube 207 is equal to the length of the filling cotton 208.

[0029] In this embodiment: when the hollow tube 201 is squeezed by an obstacle, the embedded tube 207 with a triangular internal cross-sectional shape can support the hollow tube 201. Under the condition that the triangle is stable, the embedded tube 207 with a triangular cross-sectional shape can effectively enhance the bending resistance of the hollow tube 201, so that the strength of the protective structure 2 is higher. In addition, both the hollow tube 201 and the embedded tube 207 are hollow structures, which can reduce the weight of the protective structure 2, thereby reducing the burden on the electric vehicle. The filling cotton 208 filled inside the hollow tube 201 and the embedded tube 207 can also reduce the shock of the hollow tube 201.

[0030] Embodiment 3

[0031] See also Figure 2 This embodiment further illustrates other embodiments that a buffer pad 3 is fixedly installed at the bottom of the base plate body 1.

[0032] In this embodiment: when the hollow tube 201 is squeezed and moved upward by an obstacle, the buffer pad 3 buffers the hollow tube 201, which can effectively prevent the hollow tube 201 from directly hitting the bottom plate body 1 and causing the bottom plate body 1 and the lithium battery to vibrate, and in the process of the hollow tube 201 contacting and rotating with the buffer pad 3, impurities such as stones attached to the surface of the hollow tube 201 due to the hollow tube 201 squeezing the obstacle can also be removed.
