Specific embodiments

[0034] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention and in combination with the accompanying drawings, the technical solutions of the present invention will be further described.

[0035] As Figures 1-9 shown, a battery top cover structure, characterized in that it includes:

[0036] A top cover piece 1, on both sides of the surface of which there are second through holes 101;

[0037] An upper plastic 13, which is installed at the second through hole 101;

[0038] A lower plastic 3, which is located below the top cover piece 1 and the lower plastic 3 is provided with a third through hole 31 corresponding to the second through hole 101 of the top cover piece 1, and a connecting piece 4 is provided below the third through hole 31 of the lower plastic 3;

[0039] A pole 11, which is installed on the upper plastic 13 and the lower end of the pole 11 passes through the second through hole 101 and the third through hole 31 and is fixedly welded to the connecting piece 4;

[0040] A sealing ring 2, which is arranged at the third through hole 31 of the lower plastic 3, and the sealing ring 2 seals the gap at the cooperation of the pole 11 with the connecting piece 4 and the top cover piece 1.

[0041] In the above structure, after the terminal post 11 is welded to the connecting piece 4, a space for placing the sealing ring 2 is formed between the upper plastic 13, the top cover piece 1 and the lower plastic 3. If the sealing ring 2 is not placed in this space, gas will flow through and air leakage will occur.

[0042] Furthermore, an explosion-proof valve 14 is provided in the middle of the top cover piece 1, and an explosion-proof valve film 12 is pasted on the explosion-proof valve 14.

[0043] Furthermore, a first through hole for the end of the terminal post 11 to pass through is provided on the upper plastic 13. The upper plastic 13 also has a first cavity 131 for installing the terminal post 11. A first convex ring 132 is provided on the lower side of the first through hole of the upper plastic 13. The terminal post 11 is installed in the first cavity 131. After the terminal post 11 is welded to the connecting piece 4, pressure will be generated on the upper plastic 13, causing the first convex ring 132 to generate downward pressure to abut against the sealing ring 2.

[0044] Furthermore, a second cavity 102 for installing the upper plastic 13 is provided at the second through hole 101 of the top cover piece 1.

[0045] As Figure 7 shown, furthermore, the sealing ring 2 is composed of a first part 22 and a second part 23 in a ring shape. The first part 22 is composed of a first vertical side 201, a horizontal side 202, and a second vertical side 203 from the outside to the inside and forms a second groove 21. The second part 23 is in a ring shape and extends inwardly of the second vertical side 203 to form a horizontal extension 204. The upper surface of the horizontal extension 204 is higher than or equal to the uppermost surface of the first vertical side 201. The sealing ring 2 is made of a sealing ring material with a Shore hardness of 65 - 75 degrees, and can produce a compression amount of 25% - 45%. The sealing ring 2 is integrally formed. The second groove 21 on the sealing ring enables it to cooperate with the top cover piece 1. The horizontal extension 204 of the sealing ring 2 is located in the gap above the welding joint of the terminal post 11 and the connecting piece 4, and is used to prevent air leakage due to poor welding after the sealing ring 2 is compressed.

[0046] Furthermore, a first groove 103 for the first vertical side 201 of the sealing ring 2 to be embedded is provided at the lower end of the second through hole 101 of the top cover piece 1. The inner edge of the second through hole 101 of the top cover piece 1 is embedded in the second groove 21 of the sealing ring 2. The second part 22 of the sealing ring 2 is used to fill the gap between the terminal post 11 and the connecting piece 4 under the action of the rebound force. The second groove 21 of the sealing ring 2 and the first groove 103 of the top cover piece 1 can make the top cover piece 1 and the sealing ring 2 fit tightly with each other.

[0047] Further, a second convex ring 41 is provided upward at the welding hole 42 of the connecting piece 4, and an arc chamfer 411 is provided on the contact surface between the bottom of the second convex ring 41 and the connecting piece 4. The inner hole surface of the welding hole 42 of the pole 11 and the connecting piece 4 is welded. The arc chamfer 411 is provided so that the gap at this position of the connecting piece 4 can be filled after the sealing ring 2 generates a rebounding force.

[0048] Further, the second part 22 of the sealing ring 2 is located at the gap between the pole 11 and the second convex ring 41, and the first convex ring 132 can abut against the sealing ring 2. The lower end surface of the first convex ring 132 abuts against the top surface of the second vertical side 203.

[0049] Further, a positioning rib 32 for positioning the connecting piece 4 is provided on the lower side surface of the lower plastic 3. The positioning rib 32 is for positioning the connecting piece 4 on the lower plastic 3.

[0050] Further, an annular connecting edge 312 is provided at the lower side edge of the third through hole 31 of the lower plastic 3, and a side through hole 311 is provided on the connecting edge 312. The side through hole 311 can directly verify whether there is air leakage when the sealing ring 2 is not placed.

[0051] The sealing ring 2 is made by calendering or molding. It forms a second groove and a horizontal extension part 204 through the first vertical side 201, the horizontal side 202, and the second vertical side 203. After the pole 11 and the connecting piece 4 are closely fitted and welded, the sealing ring 2 is extruded to generate a rebounding force, making the connections between the top cover piece 1 and the sealing ring 2, between the upper plastic 13 and the sealing ring 2, and between the pole 11 and the connecting piece 4 tighter, meeting the compression amount of the sealing ring 2, so as to achieve a sealing effect. After the pole 11 and the connecting piece 4 are welded, the pole 11 has a certain pressure on the upper plastic 13, so that the first convex ring 132 of the upper plastic 13 abuts against the top surface of the second vertical side 203 of the sealing ring 2 to generate a certain pressure, ensuring the reliability and stability of the resistance.

[0052] In this embodiment, there is one positive pole 11 and one negative pole 11 for the pole 11, and the corresponding welded ones are one positive connecting piece 4 and one negative connecting piece 4.

[0053] Regarding the technical solution of the present utility model above, in view of the technical problem that the prior art solution is too single, a solution significantly different from the prior art is provided. The parts not involved in the technical solution of this application are the same as the prior art or can be implemented by the prior art, and will not be elaborated here.

[0054] The technical solutions in the above embodiments have clearly and completely described the content of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all of them. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present utility model without creative efforts belong to the scope of protection of the present utility model.
