Description

Technical Field

At present, there are various types of cylindrical batteries on the market, and cylindrical batteries with different diameters and different heights emerge in an endless stream. To meet the testing requirements of different cylindrical batteries, different testing jigs are needed for testing.

[0003] The positive and negative electrodes of common cylindrical batteries are usually arranged at both ends, and testing jigs adapted to the positive and negative electrodes at both ends are required for testing.

[0037] Specifically, the cylindrical battery test tooling is configured with a first overcurrent pressure head 10, a first insulating sleeve 20, a second overcurrent pressure head 30, a cover plate test unit 40, and a pole column test unit 50. The first insulating sleeve 20 is installed on the first overcurrent pressure head 10, and the second overcurrent pressure head 30 is installed inside the first insulating sleeve 20, enabling the first overcurrent pressure head 10 and the second overcurrent pressure head 30 to be insulated through the first insulating sleeve 20. When conducting battery tests, the first current pressure head is connected to the battery cell cover plate, and the second overcurrent pressure head 30 is connected to the battery cell pole column. A current is formed through the current guiding action of the first current pressure head and the second current pressure head, enabling the cylindrical battery to operate normally.
