Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery pack testing, and specifically, to a battery pack spray testing device. Background Technique
[0002] With the rapid development of the electric vehicle industry, as a core component of electric vehicles, the safety and reliability of battery packs have become the focus of the industry. During the production process of battery packs, to ensure their stable operation in various complex environments, especially in humid or wading conditions, and to prevent safety hazards such as electric leakage and short circuit caused by water ingress, it is particularly important to conduct strict waterproof performance tests on battery packs. Among them, spray testing, as a key link in evaluating the waterproof performance of battery packs, is widely used in the production process.
[0003] However, the battery pack spray testing devices widely used in the current market still have deficiencies in functional design. Specifically, these devices mainly focus on simulating the effects of sprays with different intensities on battery packs to test their sealing and waterproof capabilities. However, after the spray test is completed, there is often a lack of an effective drying mechanism. This results in a large amount of moisture remaining on the surface of the battery pack after the test. If not processed in time, it may not only affect the subsequent assembly and detection processes, but more importantly, for battery packs that do not meet the performance standards, the moisture remaining on their surfaces will pose a significant risk of electric leakage, and there are certain safety hazards for operators during disassembly. For the problems in the related technologies, no effective solutions have been proposed yet. Content of the Utility Model
[0004] Aiming at the problems in the related technologies, the utility model proposes a battery pack spray testing device to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems existing in the existing related technologies.
[0005] Therefore, the specific technical solution adopted by the utility model is as follows:
[0006] A battery pack spray testing device includes a water storage tank. A protective housing is fixedly connected above the water storage tank. A support shaft is rotatably installed on the inner bottom surface of the protective housing. A first bevel gear is fixedly installed on the surface of the support shaft. A drive motor is fixedly installed on one side of the protective housing. The transmission shaft of the drive motor rotatably passes through the protective housing and is fixedly connected with a second bevel gear. The first bevel gear is meshed and connected with the second bevel gear. A lifting screw rod is threadedly connected to the top of the protective housing.

A water inlet pipe is fixedly installed on one side of the booster pump, and a spray pipe is fixedly installed on the other side. Spray holes are formed on the surface of the spray pipe. One end of the spray pipe penetrates through the protective housing and is fixedly connected with an air inlet pipe. A hot air blower is fixedly installed at the end of the air inlet pipe. A positioning mechanism is provided inside the clamping disc.
[0007] Furthermore, to prevent the battery pack from shifting during rotational spraying, the positioning mechanism includes a threaded drive rod rotatably mounted on the clamping disc. Adjusting rings are threadedly connected to both sides of the surface of the threaded drive rod. Limit rods are fixedly connected to both sides of the clamping disc, and limit grooves are formed on the surfaces of the limit rods. One side of the adjusting ring passes through the limit groove and is fixedly connected to a positioning plate.
[0008] Furthermore, to enable the drive motor to drive the battery pack between the clamping discs to rotate, the end of the support shaft is fixedly connected to the clamping disc, and the end of the lifting screw rod is rotatably connected to the clamping disc.
[0009] Furthermore, to seal both ends of the spray pipe, sealing valves are rotatably mounted on one side surface of both the spray pipe and the air inlet pipe.
[0010] Furthermore, to increase the friction between the clamping disc and the battery pack, a rubber pad is fixedly mounted on one side surface of the clamping disc.
[0011] Furthermore, to achieve the recycling of the spray water, a circulation hole is formed at the connection between the water storage tank and the protective housing.
[0012] Furthermore, to switch control each electrical component in the device, a multi-control switch is fixedly mounted on one side surface of the outer surface of the water storage tank.
[0013] Furthermore, to open and close the protective housing, a protective door is rotatably mounted on one side of the protective housing.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: Through the two clamping discs and the positioning mechanism on the clamping discs, the battery pack to be subjected to spray testing is fixedly clamped. After injecting water into the spray pipe through the booster pump, it is ejected from the spray holes, and the drive motor drives the support shaft and the battery pack clamped at its top to rotate, realizing the all-round spray testing of the battery pack. After the testing is completed, the booster pump is turned off, and hot air can be injected into the spray pipe by starting the hot air blower, and then blown onto the battery pack through the spray holes to dry it by hot air. While blowing, the drive motor drives the battery pack to continuously rotate and shake off water, realizing the rapid drying of the battery pack after testing, ensuring that there is no residual moisture on the surface of the battery pack, preventing electric leakage, greatly reducing the safety hazard during the disassembly of the battery pack, and ensuring production safety.
