[0022] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention.

[0023] Please refer to Figure 1-6 ;

[0024] A battery cable clamp includes a shell 1. The shell 1 can be a cube or a rectangular parallelepiped. The present embodiment preferably adopts a cube shape. The shell 1 is provided with a cavity 2. A plurality of clamps 3 for placing battery cables are installed in the cavity 2. The side walls on both sides of the clamps 3 fit with the side walls on both sides of the shell 1 to prevent the clamps 3 from shaking when locked and fixed. The bottom of the shell 1 is provided with an adjustment hole 11 that is cross-staggered with the clamps 3. The adjustment hole 11 is used to adjust the distance between the clamps 3. There are two adjustment holes 11, both of which are An elliptical hole, a plurality of locking screws 4 are installed on the adjustment hole 11, the locking screws 4 pass through the adjustment hole 11 and are threadedly connected to the clamping member 3, and the clamping member 3 is locked and fixed by the locking screws 4. When the position of the clamping member 3 is adjusted, the locking screws 4 are screwed in to lock the clamping member 3 to avoid changes in the position of the clamping member 3 when the clamp is in use. A handheld portion is provided on one side of the housing 1 to facilitate the operator to move the clamp. At the same time, the clamping member 3 of the utility model is detachable, and different types of cables can be clamped by replacing different clamping members 3.

[0025] Specifically, when using a clamp to clamp the cables of batteries of different sizes, the position of the clamp 3 can be manually adjusted by loosening the locking screw 4 of the clamp 3, thereby achieving the placement of cables for batteries of different sizes without the need for special clamps, greatly reducing production costs and occupying less space.

[0026] In this embodiment, every two clamping members form a clamping unit, and a positioning block 8 is placed between the two clamping members 3 of each clamping unit. Since the clamping members 3 need to be tightened with force when the hand screws are tightened, and the clamping members 3 are easily displaced when the hand screws are tightened with force, it is necessary to limit the position when locking the clamping members 3. For example, the clamping member 3 on the far left that is in contact with the inner wall of the shell is used as a reference, and its position remains unchanged. A positioning block 8 corresponding to the size of the cable is placed on the other side of the clamping member 3 used as a reference, and then another clamping member is placed. 3, and lock it. When locking, apply a force to the positioning block 8 in the direction of the clamping member 3 placed later to limit it, so that it will not move when locked. In addition, the positioning block 8 is not locked and can be removed at any time. When the cable needs to be matched with batteries of different models, the spacing between the two clamping members 3 can be adjusted by replacing positioning blocks 8 of different sizes, thereby improving the convenience and accuracy of installing the clamping member 3. The positioning blocks 8 between the two groups of clamping units can also use different sizes to cope with the need for the cable to match batteries of two different sizes.

[0027] Since the cable to be clamped by the clamp is in an L-shaped structure, a slot 1 31 is provided on each of the clamping members 3, and an extension portion 33 is provided on the side away from the slot 1 31. A slot 2 32 corresponding to the slot 1 31 is provided on the extension portion 33. A plurality of slots 1 31 are aligned with slots 2 32 in the horizontal direction, and the cable is installed by the cooperation of the slots 1 31 and the slots 2 32. A pad 34 is pasted in the slot 1 31, and the pad 34 is a soft pad, such as a rubber pad, to ensure that the cable remains vertically placed and can effectively fix cables of different thicknesses.

[0028] Furthermore, the plurality of clamping members 3 are all mirror-imaged, and the cables installed on the clamping members 3 are also mirror-imaged, ensuring that the cables can be aligned with the tabs of the battery.

[0029] In another implementation of the present embodiment, in order to avoid partial protrusion of the locking screw 4, which causes the clamp to be uneven when placed, a groove 12 is provided on the lower end surface of the housing 1. The groove 12 is located on the outer periphery of the adjustment hole 11. The groove 12 can be elliptical or rectangular, and an elliptical shape is preferably adopted. When the locking screw 4 is tightened, the head of the locking screw 4 is located in the groove 12.

[0030] Furthermore, the locking screw 4 is covered with a ring sleeve 5, one end of the ring sleeve 5 is against the locking screw 4, and the other end is against the lower end surface of the groove 12. The ring sleeve 5 is a rubber sleeve. When the locking screw 4 locks the clamp 3, the ring sleeve 5 will play a protective role and will not cause the locking screw 4 to damage the surface of the groove 12. At the same time, since the locking screw 4 and the outer shell 1 are both supported by hard materials, the friction force is relatively small when they are in direct contact, and it is difficult to achieve stable locking. By adding the ring sleeve 5 between the two, the friction coefficient of the contact surface can be effectively improved, thereby improving the locking effect of the locking screw 4.

[0031] When the clamping member 3 is locked, it is necessary to manually apply a force to the clamping member 3 in the direction of the positioning block 8. Since the clamping member 3 needs to be locked at the bottom, the housing 1 needs to be turned over when locking, and then the locking screw 4 needs to be screwed on. This locking method is too troublesome. For this reason, a countersunk hole 13 is provided on one side of the housing 1. The axial direction of the countersunk hole 13 is perpendicular to the length direction of the clamping member 3. One side of the countersunk hole 13 is threadedly connected to a limit screw 6. The limit screw 6 is a hand-tightened screw, which is convenient for the operator to turn. The bottom of the limit screw 6 is threadedly connected to an abutment 7, which can abut against the side wall of the clamping member 3. When the limit screw 6 is not in use, the limit screw 6 can be It is screwed out from the countersunk hole 13 to prevent the limit screw 6 from being too long and affecting the placement of the clamp. The abutment 7 in this embodiment abuts against the side wall of the clamp 3 to protect the side wall of the clamp 3 to prevent the limit screw 6 from directly abutting against the side wall of the clamp 3 when the limit screw 6 is rotated, thereby wearing the side wall of the clamp 3. In addition, since the size of the cable is large, the clamp 3 at the edge of the other side may be very close to the inner wall of the shell 1. At this time, the abutment 7 will block the adjustment of the clamp 3. Therefore, the countersunk hole 13 is located at one end of the inner wall of the shell 1 The same size as the abutment 7, so that the abutment 7 can be placed to avoid blocking the adjustment of the clamp 3.

[0032] The locking method of the clamping member 3 of the above structure is to divide the distance between the clamping member 3 and the limit screw 6 from far to near into clamping member 1, clamping member 2, clamping member 3 and clamping member 4, and take the position of clamping member 1 as a reference. The position of clamping member 1 does not move. First, remove clamping member 3 and clamping member 4, and then release the locking state of clamping member 3. Then insert the positioning block 8, adjust the position of clamping member 2, and after adjustment, rotate the limit screw 6 until the abutment 7 abuts against clamping member 2 to limit the displacement of the four sides of clamping member 2. Then lock clamping member 2 to complete the installation of clamping member 2. Other clamps can be installed in the same way. There is no need to manually apply force to the clamping member 3, which improves the convenience of locking the clamping member.

[0033] It is obvious to those skilled in the art that the present invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that the present invention can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential features of the present invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be regarded as exemplary and non-restrictive from any point of view, and the scope of the present invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the above description, and it is intended that all changes falling within the meaning and scope of the equivalent elements of the claims be included in the present invention. Any reference numeral in a claim should not be regarded as limiting the claim to which it relates.
