[0022] 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 in 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.
[0023] See also Figure 1-3 A battery cap structure of a steel shell aqueous zinc ion battery comprises a cap body 1 and a sealing ring 2 fixedly connected to the outer side of the cap body 1, and a pressure relief structure for pressure relief is provided on the inner side of the cap body 1.
[0024] like Figure 1 As shown, the pressure relief structure includes an elastic telescopic rod 3 fixedly connected to the inner top wall of the cap body 1, a connecting plate 4 fixedly connected to the bottom end of the piston rod of the elastic telescopic rod 3, a first sealing block 5 fixedly connected to the bottom of the connecting plate 4, connecting blocks 6 fixedly connected to the left and right sides of the connecting plate 4 respectively, a mounting plate 7 fixedly connected to the other side of the connecting block 6, a mounting shaft 8 fixedly connected to the upper surface of the mounting plate 7, and a second sealing block 9 fixedly connected to the top of the mounting shaft 8.
[0025] It should be noted that two support plates 10 are fixedly connected between the inner top wall and the inner bottom wall of the cap body 1, and the two support plates 10 are respectively located on the left and right sides of the elastic telescopic rod 3. A plurality of through holes are opened on the inner side of the support plate 10, and a sliding opening adapted to the connecting block 6 is opened on the inner side of the support plate 10, and the sliding opening is located below the through hole.
[0026] A guide rod 11 is slidably connected to the inner side of the mounting plate 7, and the upper and lower ends of the left guide rod 11 are bent to the left and fixedly connected to the inner left wall of the cap body 1, and the upper and lower ends of the right guide rod 11 are bent to the right and fixedly connected to the inner right wall of the cap body 1.
[0027] There are four mounting shafts 8 , and the front and back sides of the top of the left mounting plate 7 are both fixedly connected with the mounting shafts 8 , and the front and back sides of the top of the right mounting plate 7 are both fixedly connected with the mounting shafts 8 .
[0028] An air inlet compatible with the first sealing block 5 is opened at the bottom of the cap body 1, and four pressure relief ports compatible with the second sealing block 9 are opened on the upper surface of the cap body 1. A reinforcement ring 12 is fixedly connected to the upper surface of the cap body 1, and the pressure relief ports are located on the inner side of the reinforcement ring 12.
[0029] In addition, the provision of the reinforcement ring 12 can significantly increase the structural strength of the cap, making it more resistant to external impact and extrusion, thereby improving the battery's resistance to drop and pressure. During the use of the battery, changes in internal pressure or the action of external forces may cause the cap to deform. The addition of the reinforcement ring 12 can effectively reduce the possibility of such deformation and maintain the shape of the cap stable. In addition, the design of the reinforcement ring 12 can also serve as an aesthetic element to make the battery look more refined. At the same time, it can also serve as an identification area for the brand or model, which is convenient for users to identify and remember.
[0030] The working principle of the above embodiment is:
[0031] When the internal pressure of the battery is normal, the first sealing block 5 tightly seals the air inlet at the bottom of the cap body 1, and the four second sealing blocks 9 also tightly seal the four pressure relief ports respectively to ensure the sealing inside the battery. When the internal pressure of the battery rises abnormally, this pressure first acts on the structure inside the cap body 1. Due to the increase in internal pressure, the elastic telescopic rod 3 is subjected to upward pressure and begins to compress. During the compression process of the elastic telescopic rod 3, its piston rod drives the connecting plate 4 and its auxiliary structure to move upward. As the connecting plate 4 moves upward, the first sealing block 5 gradually leaves the air inlet, allowing the high-pressure gas inside the battery to enter the space inside the cap body 1.
[0032] At the same time, the mounting plate 7 moves upward steadily along the guide rod 11 to ensure accuracy and stability during the movement. When the internal pressure reaches a certain level, the mounting plate 7 pushes the second sealing block 9 away from the pressure relief port through the mounting shaft 8, thereby forming an open channel, allowing high-pressure gas to be quickly discharged through the pressure relief port, thereby achieving rapid pressure relief inside the battery. During the entire pressure relief process, the reinforcement ring 12 not only enhances the structural strength of the cap body 1, but also ensures the integrity of the pressure relief port under extreme pressure, thereby preventing the cap from being deformed or ruptured due to excessive pressure.
[0033] It should be noted that the terms "include", "comprises" or any other variations thereof are intended to cover non-exclusive inclusion, so that a process, method, article or device including a series of elements includes not only those elements, but also other elements not explicitly listed, or also includes elements inherent to such process, method, article or device. In the absence of further restrictions, an element defined by the sentence "comprises a ..." does not exclude the existence of other identical elements in the process, method, article or device including the element.
