Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of crimping, in particular to a crimping device capable of detecting battery missing installation. Background Art

[0002] The power source of existing equipment often relies on electricity. For some equipment that needs to be moved, a battery pack is often set to ensure a stable power source even when far away from the power grid. There is an existing injection-molded product for providing power, which is pre-installed with multiple batteries to form a battery pack. Since the battery cannot be directly installed during injection molding, the battery is generally installed after injection molding. In order to ensure that there is no missing battery during installation, it is necessary to detect after the battery is installed to ensure product quality. At the same time, each end of the battery pack is connected with a wire, and a power supply connector is also crimped at the end of the two wires, so as to facilitate subsequent direct insertion into the corresponding socket to provide power. The existing processing flow is to first detect the missing situation of the battery, and then crimp the power supply connector at the end of the two wires.

[0003] However, there are some problems in the existing processing flow when in use: during processing, it is necessary to detect the missing battery and crimp the power supply connector on the wire at different positions. The intermediate transfer process takes time, and the two steps carried out separately also increase the processing time, resulting in low production efficiency. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] In view of this, the utility model provides a crimping device capable of detecting battery missing installation to solve the above problems.

[0005] A crimping device capable of detecting battery missing installation includes a mounting base and a crimping device arranged on one side of the mounting base. The crimping device includes a vertically arranged guide rod, a slider slidably sleeved on the guide rod, two metal crimping blocks arranged at the bottom of the slider, and a detection circuit connected to the metal crimping blocks. The metal crimping block includes a crimping block body, a crimping head arranged at the bottom of the crimping block body, and a connection groove opened on one side of the crimping block body. A conductive rod is inserted into the connection groove, and the end of the conductive rod is rotatably inserted into the slider, and the two metal crimping blocks are arranged at intervals.

[0006] Further, the two wiring terminals of the detection circuit are respectively electrically connected to one of the conductive rods, and the detection circuit includes a current detection device and a protection resistor connected in series.

[0007] Further, a wire arranging board is vertically arranged on one side of the slider. The wire arranging board includes a board body and at least two wire grooves arranged at the lower edge of the board body.

[0008] Further, the opening of the wire groove is in a flared shape.

[0009] Further, an outer protective cover is provided outside the crimping device.

[0010] Further, the mounting base includes a base body and a product mounting groove formed at the top of the base body.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the crimping device provided by the present utility model capable of detecting battery omission is provided with a metal crimping block, and the metal crimping block is arranged on the slider. By controlling the slider to slide along the guide rod, the metal crimping block can be driven to move in the height direction, so as to crimp the wire on the product battery pack into the power supply connector on the horizontal plane. The metal crimping block is made of a conductive material, and a conductive rod is respectively inserted on the metal crimping block. The conductive rod is connected in series with the detection circuit to form a path, so as to detect whether there is a battery omission in the battery pack. Since the metal crimping block can detect battery omission while crimping, the transportation time between the two processing steps is avoided, and the processing time can also be saved, improving the production efficiency.

[0017] The following further details the specific embodiments of the present utility model. It should be understood that the description of the embodiments of the present utility model herein is not intended to limit the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0018] Such as Figures 1 to 5As shown in the figure, it is a schematic structural diagram of a crimping device provided by the present utility model that can detect battery missing installation. The crimping device that can detect battery missing installation includes a mounting base 10 and a crimping device 20 provided on one side of the mounting base 10. The crimping device that can detect battery missing installation also includes some other functional modules, such as a controller and a distribution box provided on the crimping device 20, etc., which should be well-known technologies to those skilled in the art and will not be described in detail one by one here.

[0019] The mounting base 10 includes a base body 11, a product installation groove 12 opened at the top of the base body 11, and four support feet 13 provided at the bottom of the base 11. Both the base body 11 and the product installation groove 12 are used to fix the product for subsequent processing. The support feet 13 are used to support the base body 11, and the support feet 13 are made of rubber material, which can reduce the influence of external vibration on the base body 11.

[0020] The crimping device 20 includes a vertically arranged guide rod 21, a slider 22 slidably sleeved on the guide rod 21, two metal crimping blocks 23 provided at the bottom of the slider 22, a wiring board 24 provided on one side of the slider 22, a detection circuit 25 connecting the two metal crimping blocks 23 in series, and a protective cover 26 covering the outside of the slider 22 and spaced from the slider 22. The entire crimping device 20 is installed on the top of the workbench, and is spaced from the mounting base 10. The workbench is a common tabletop, mainly playing a role of support and fixation, and is not shown in the figure.

[0021] The guide rod 21 is used to support the slider 22, and the guide rod 21 is vertically inserted into the top of the workbench. It should be noted that a linear drive module is provided at intervals on one side of the guide rod 21 for driving the slider 22 to slide. Since controlling the slider 22 to move along the guide rod 21 by the linear drive module is well-known to those skilled in the art and is the basic principle of the press-fitting structure, it will not be elaborated here and is not shown in the figure.

[0022] The slider 22 is slidably sleeved outside the guide rod 21. Two crimping block installation grooves 221 are opened at intervals at the bottom of the slider 22 for accommodating the metal crimping blocks 23. Each of the crimping block installation grooves 221 communicates with one side wall of the slider 22 respectively, thus forming a channel 222. The channel 222 is used to accommodate the following conductive rods, facilitating the electrical connection between the ends of the conductive rods and the detection circuit 25.

[0023] The metal crimping block 23 is not only used to press the end of the wire into the power supply connector to achieve wire crimping, but also can contact the exposed metal part of the wire, so as to connect the battery pack in series with the detection circuit 25. The material of the metal crimping block 23 is copper or copper alloy. The metal crimping block 23 includes a crimping block body 231, a crimping head 232 arranged at the bottom of the crimping block body 231, a connection groove 233 opened on one side of the crimping block body 231, and a conductive rod 234 inserted into the connection groove 233.

[0024] The crimping block body 231 is installed in the crimping block installation groove 221. The cross-sectional shape of the crimping block body 231 is the same as that of the crimping block installation groove 221. At least one notch 235 is arranged in the vertical direction of the crimping block body 231, so that the crimping block installation groove 221 can communicate with the atmosphere when the crimping block body 231 is installed, which is convenient for the installation and removal of the crimping block body 231. The ground of the crimping block body 231 is flush with the notch of the crimping block installation groove 221.

[0025] The crimping head 232 is used to directly contact the wire. The crimping head 232 is completely located outside the crimping block installation groove 221. The end face of the crimping head 232 is arc-shaped, so that it can fit the outer contour of the wire, making the wire not easy to move during the crimping process. It should be noted that in actual use, a crimping seat will be arranged at the position corresponding to the crimping head 232, which is used to cooperate with the crimping head 232 to crimp the power supply connector placed between the crimping seat and the crimping head 232. Since the function and structure of the crimping seat are well known to those skilled in the art, they will not be elaborated here.

[0026] The connection groove 233 is opened on the side where the two crimping block bodies 231 face away from each other. The channel 222 is aligned with the connection groove 233. When the conductive rod 234 is inserted into the connection groove 233, the end of the conductive rod 234 extends beyond the connection groove 233, so as to clamp the crimping block body 231 in the slider 22. The cross-sectional radius of the channel 222 is the same as that of the connection groove 233 and the cross-sectional radius of the conductive rod 234, so as to ensure that the conductive rod 234 can be stably inserted into the connection groove 233 and the channel 222, and the crimping block body 231 is stably clamped on the slider 22.

[0027] The wire arranging board 24 is used to separate the wires and guide the wires to correspond to the position of the crimping joint 232 before the wires extend to the bottom of the crimping joint 232. The wire arranging board 24 includes a board body 241 and at least two wire grooves 242 formed at the bottom of the board body 241. The wire grooves 242 are arranged at intervals, and the openings of the wire grooves 242 are in a flared shape, so as to guide the wires into the wire grooves 242. In this embodiment, the number of the wire grooves 242 is three, so that two suitable wire grooves 242 can be selected according to the interval distance between the wires required during crimping, and thus it can be applicable to power supply connectors of different specifications.

[0028] The detection circuit 25 is arranged on the surface of the slider 22. The position of the detection circuit 25 is not required, and it only needs to be electrically connected to the two conductive rods 234. Figure 1 The detection circuit 25 is not shown in. The detection circuit 25 includes a current detection device 251 and a protection resistor 252 connected in series with the current detection device 251. The detection circuit 25 has two connection terminals 253, and the two connection terminals 253 are respectively electrically connected to a conductive rod 234, so that the detection circuit 25 and the battery pack of the product form a loop. When one battery is missing in the battery pack, the loop is an open circuit; when the batteries in the battery pack are complete, the loop is connected. The current detection device 251 can be used to detect the current situation in the detection circuit 25, so that an alarm can be issued when a battery is missing through a corresponding signal processing module such as a single-chip microcomputer in cooperation with a PC. It should be noted that converting the signal detected by the current detection device 251 into other signals and issuing an alarm through the PC is a common control form, and its principle and structure are well known to those skilled in the art, and will not be elaborated here.

[0029] The protective cover 26 is used to protect the crimping device 20. The protective cover 26 is made of a transparent material, so as to facilitate observing the internal situation from the outside. The protective cover 26 is fixedly installed on the top of the workbench by bolts. The protective cover 26 is in a semi-surrounding shape, with an opening reserved in the direction where the wire extends, and no top cover is provided, so as to facilitate the wire to extend and the usual maintenance.

[0030] Compared with the prior art, the crimping device capable of detecting battery missing provided by the present utility model sets a metal crimping block 23 on the slider 22. By controlling the slider 22 to slide along the guide rod 21, the metal crimping block 23 can be driven to move in the height direction, so as to crimp the wire on the product battery pack into the power supply connector on the horizontal plane. The metal crimping block 23 is made of conductive material, and a conductive rod 234 is respectively inserted on the metal crimping block 23. The conductive rod 234 is connected in series with the detection circuit 25 to form a path, so as to detect whether there is a missing battery in the battery pack. Since the metal crimping block 23 can detect battery missing while crimping, the transportation time between two processing steps is avoided, and the processing time is also saved, improving the production efficiency.

[0031] The above is only the preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not used to limit the protection scope of the present utility model. Any modification, equivalent replacement or improvement within the spirit of the present utility model is covered by the scope of the claims of the present utility model.
