[0040] The following further describes the application principle of the present invention with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.
[0041] Embodiment 1
[0042] As Figures 1-5As shown, this is an implementation of the present utility model, a flexible battery cell restraint tray that can be displayed and adjusted, including a bottom plate 1.

On the guide rods 4, from the rear side plate 2 towards the front side plate 6, a push plate 3, a rear end lining 5, a middle lining 8, a front end lining 7 and the front side plate 6 are installed. Multiple groups of middle linings 8 are provided and are installed side by side between the front end lining 7 and the rear end lining 5. A restraint space 16 is movably arranged between adjacent middle linings 8, and a battery cell is suitable to be placed in the restraint space 16. A locking member is installed on the rear side plate 2, and the locking member is suitable for restricting the distance between the rear side plate 2 and the push plate 3 and detecting the pressure on the push plate 3. The middle lining 8 includes a middle plate 17 and upper and lower distance retaining blocks 9 and 10 located at both ends of the middle plate 17. The horizontal lengths of the upper distance retaining block 9 and the lower distance retaining block 10 are the same, and the upper distance retaining block 9 and the lower distance retaining block 10 are respectively detachably connected to the middle plate 17. Multiple groups of guide rods 4 are provided, and the upper distance retaining block 9 or the lower distance retaining block 10 is sleeved on the guide rod 4.
[0043] Among them, as Figure 1 shown, the locking member includes a restraint screw 12. One end of the restraint screw 12 is located outside the rear side plate 2 and is installed with a screw sleeve 13. The screw sleeve 13 is threadedly connected to the restraint screw 12. The restraint screw 12 is threadedly connected to the rear side plate 2. An internal threaded hole is provided in the screw sleeve 13, and the screw sleeve 13 can be detachably installed on the rear side plate 2. The restraint screw 12 is threadedly connected to the screw sleeve 13 and extends to install a connection block, and a pressure sensor 14 is installed in the connection block. Further, a pressure sensor 14 is installed at the end of the restraint screw 12 between the rear side plate 2 and the push plate 3, and the detection end of the pressure sensor 14 is suitable to be arranged towards the push plate 3. A pressure display screen 15 is fixedly installed on the rear side plate 2, and the pressure display screen 15 is signal-connected to the pressure sensor 14.
[0044] The utility model is a novel adjustable restraint tray, which can release the restraint tray by toggling the push plate 3, and the spacing size of the inner lining after restraint is relatively determined by the upper spacing pull block 9 and the lower spacing pull block 10 on the guide rail. The pressure display is completed by the restraint screw 12, the screw sleeve 13, the pressure sensor 14 and the pressure display screen 15. After the battery cell is put into the tray, the push plate 3 is pushed to the predetermined position, and the restraint screw 12 is rotated to drive the pressure sensor 14 to contact the push plate 3, so that the load of the pressure sensor 14 tends to the same value, which can be read on the pressure display screen 15. Therefore, in this embodiment, when the pressure display exceeds the set value, the corresponding pressure data is provided according to the required battery cell size, and the abutment pressure needs to be reduced. Then the battery capacity division process is carried out, and the corresponding values are read and compared after the capacity division, and finally the verification result is output to determine the final required restraint pressure of the restraint tray. Vertically arranged long positioning bolts 11 are installed on the front side plate 6 and the rear side plate 2 . The long positioning bolts 11 are suitable for fixing the front side plate 6 and the rear side plate 2 on the bottom plate 1 .

The upper distance pull block 9 and the lower distance pull block 10 are provided with notches 23 on the upper and lower sides facing the rear side plate 2.
[0049] Three groups of bearing blocks 20 are installed at the bottom of a group of intermediate plates 17. A guide hole is opened on the bearing block 20 located in the middle of the bottom of the intermediate plate 17, and a transverse column 24 is installed in the guide hole. The two ends of the transverse column 24 are fixedly connected to the front side plate 6 and the rear side plate 2 respectively.
[0050] In this embodiment, the bearing block can effectively support the battery cell so that the battery cell does not fall on the bottom plate. Through holes are provided on the bottom plate. The upper distance-fixed pull block 9 and the lower distance-fixed pull block 10 with the same horizontal length can be replaced to determine the size of the restraint space between adjacent intermediate plates, thereby realizing the adjustment of the installation size of the battery cell. The positioning screw realizes the detachable fixation of the upper distance-fixed pull block or the lower distance-fixed pull block on the intermediate plate. The upper distance-fixed pull block is as Figure 3 shown. By inserting the two sides of the clamping groove into the adjacent intermediate plates, the longitudinal movement of the battery cell can be restricted. The fixed battery cell will subsequently undergo the battery grading process. After grading, the corresponding values are read and compared, and finally the verification result is output to determine the final required restraint pressure of the tray.
