It is only for the convenience of describing the present invention and simplifying the description, rather than indicating or implying that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation to the present invention.

[0022] As Figures 1-4 , a lithium-ion battery charging tooling of the present invention includes a bottom plate 1. A vertical plate 2 is provided at the upper end of the bottom plate 1. A charge and discharge test equipment 3 is provided on the vertical plate 2. A vertical groove 4 is provided inside the vertical plate 2. A lifting plate 5 is slidably provided in the vertical groove 4. A placement plate 6 is provided on the upper end surface of the bottom plate 1. A lithium battery 7 is placed inside the placement plate 6. A clamping device 9 is provided in the bottom plate 1 and can clamp and fix the lithium battery 7. A downward pressing conduction device 8 is provided in the vertical groove 4 and is connected to the lifting plate 5. An adjustable test device 10 is provided in the lifting plate 5. A connecting wire 11 is provided on the charge and discharge test equipment 3 and is electrically connected to the adjustable test device 10.

[0023] As Figure 1 , 3As shown in FIGS. 3 and 4, the adjustable test device 10 includes a horizontal groove 14 located in the lifting plate 5. A slider 15 is slidably disposed in the horizontal groove 14. The slider 15 is made of insulating material and is slidably connected to the horizontal groove 14 in a snap-fit manner. A conductive column 16 is provided in the slider 15. The connecting wire 11 is electrically connected to the conductive column 16. The lower end of the conductive column 16 is communicated with a test electrode plate 17. The test electrode plate 17 is located above the pole column of the lithium battery 7. A fixing block 12 is provided at the upper end of the lifting plate 5. A cylinder 13 is fixedly connected in the fixing block 12. The cylinder 13 is a two-way cylinder 13. The output end of the cylinder 13 is connected to the slider 15. By pushing the slider 15 with the cylinder 13, the distance between the two test electrode plates 17 can be adjusted to meet the charge and discharge tests for lithium batteries 7 of different models.

[0024] As shown in Figure 4 , the downward pressing conduction device 8 includes an electric push rod 18 located in the vertical groove 4. The output end of the electric push rod 18 is connected to the lifting plate 5. A plurality of second guide posts 19 are provided in the vertical groove 4. The second guide posts 19 penetrate through the lifting plate 5. By pulling the lifting plate 5 up and down with the electric push rod 18, the test electrode plate 17 can be brought close to and conduct with the tab of the lithium battery 7, thereby realizing the charge and discharge test for the lithium battery 7, which is very convenient and can be reused.

[0025] As shown in Figures 1-2 , the clamping device 9 includes a clamping plate 20 that slides at the bottom of the bottom plate 1.

[0026] During specific use, when performing a charge and discharge test on the lithium battery 7, first place the lithium battery 7 on the placement plate 6, and then rotate the hand wheel 23. The lead screw 21 rotates and drives the clamping plate 20 to slide on the first guide post 22. The buffer pad 24 on the clamping plate 20 clamps and fixes the lithium battery 7, so that the pole column of the lithium battery 7 faces upward and is located below the test electrode plate 17.

[0027] According to the width of the tab of the lithium battery 7, adjust the distance between the test electrode plates 17. By starting the cylinder 13, the cylinder 13 pulls the sliders 15 on both sides to slide in the horizontal groove 14 until the distance between the test electrode plates 17 is equal to and vertically corresponds to the distance between the pole columns of the lithium battery 7. By starting the electric push rod 18, the lifting plate 5 will slide in the second guide posts 19 until the test electrode plate 17 presses on the cell pole column of the lithium battery 7. The charge and discharge test equipment 3 can perform a charge and discharge test on the lithium battery 7, which is very convenient.

[0028] After the charge and discharge test is completed, the test electrode plate 17 can move upward, quickly separate from the lithium battery 7, loosen the clamping device 9, take out the lithium battery 7, place the next group of lithium batteries 7 for testing, and can repeat the test on the lithium battery 7 to improve the test efficiency.
