Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the field of power battery pack production, and in particular to a self-locking buckle installation device. Background Art

[0002] Usually, the liquid cooling module of the power battery includes a liquid cooling plate, a liquid cooling pipe joint, a liquid cooling pipeline and other structures. The liquid cooling pipeline is connected to the liquid cooling plate using a liquid cooling pipe joint. The liquid cooling pipe joint usually has a self-locking buckle. After the liquid cooling pipe joint is installed in place, the self-locking buckle is pressed into place to prevent the liquid cooling pipe joint from being dislodged under pressure during use, thereby affecting the sealing of the liquid cooling system.

[0003] In the actual production process, it was found that sometimes the space or field of view of the liquid cooling pipe joint is limited, the fulcrum is not good, and it is not convenient to install. It is also impossible to confirm whether the self-locking buckle of the liquid cooling pipe joint is correctly locked in place, resulting in the liquid cooling pipe falling out and the airtightness failure of the liquid cooling system in the subsequent production process.

[0004] In the prior art, conventional calipers are used to install the self-locking buckles of liquid cooling pipe joints. Conventional calipers cannot adapt to liquid cooling pipe joints and self-locking buckles of different specifications. Therefore, it is difficult to grasp the force point during installation, and it is also easy to cause wear to the liquid cooling pipe joints and self-locking buckles. Utility Model Content
