Detailed implementation mode

[0030] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. The following description of at least one exemplary embodiment is actually only illustrative and in no way constitutes a limitation to the present application and its application or use. Embodiment 1

[0031] As Figures 1-5 shown, this embodiment provides a lithium battery winding needle device, including a connector 02, a winding needle 03 and a needle sleeve 04. The connector 02 and the needle sleeve 04 are installed on the device frame. A winding needle 03 is provided between the connector 02 and the needle sleeve 04. One end of the winding needle 03 is detachably installed on the connector 02;

[0032] The connector 02 includes a sliding sleeve 200 and an inner bushing. The sliding sleeve 200 is slidably connected to the inner bushing. Steel balls 202 are embedded in the inner bushing. The steel balls 202 are close to the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 200. The winding needle 03 is provided with a card slot 302 that cooperates with the steel balls 202. The winding needle 03 is detachably installed in the inner bushing through the cooperation of the steel balls 202 and the card slot 302;

[0033] The inner wall of the sliding sleeve 200 is provided with a fixed ring 204 for placing the steel balls 202. When the winding needle 03 is disassembled, the steel balls 202 fall into the fixed ring 204 from the card slot 302, and the winding needle 03 is separated from the inner bushing.

[0034] The inner wall of the sliding sleeve 200 contacts the outer wall of the inner lining sleeve. The steel balls 202 are embedded in the steel ball holes formed in the inner lining sleeve, and the steel ball holes extend from the inner wall to the outer wall of the inner lining sleeve.

[0035] The fixing ring 204 on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 200 is composed of a semi-circular groove on the outer wall of the inner lining sleeve and a groove on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve.

[0036] When installing the winding needle 03, push the sliding sleeve 200. The steel balls 202 in the sliding sleeve 200 move towards the fixing ring 204. When the steel balls 200 are located at the fixing ring 204, the space of the inner lining sleeve is suitable for the end of the winding needle 03. Insert the end of the winding needle 03 with the card slot 302 into the inner lining sleeve. When the steel balls 202 contact the card slot 302, they fall into the card slot 302, and the sliding sleeve 200 returns to its initial position. Through the cooperation of the card slot 302 and the steel balls 202, one end of the winding needle 03 is limited in the inner lining sleeve. When disassembling the winding needle 03, push the sliding sleeve 200. When the fixing ring 204 contacts the steel balls 202, the steel balls 202 fall from the card slot 302 into the fixing ring 204, and the winding needle 03 is taken out. Embodiment 2

[0037] This embodiment provides a lithium battery winding needle device, which is different from Embodiment 1 in that one end of the inner lining sleeve is installed on the moving shaft 205. A joint spring 201 is provided at one end of the inner lining sleeve installed on the moving shaft 205. The joint spring 201 is located between the sliding sleeve 200 and the inner lining sleeve. One end of the joint spring 201 is limited by the moving shaft 205, and the other end is limited by a clamping seat on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 200. A bushing base 203 is provided in the inner lining sleeve, and the bushing base 203 is used to limit the installation position of the winding needle 03 in the inner lining sleeve.

[0038] The winding needle 03 includes a winding needle base 301 and winding needle pieces. The base is composed of two semi-circles, and the two semi-circles are connected by the fixing screw holes 304 provided thereon and the fixing screws 313 in the fixing screw holes 304. One end of the winding needle base 301 is installed with winding needle pieces, and the other end is provided with a winding needle spring 300. A card slot 302 is also provided at the end of the winding needle base 301 where the winding needle spring 300 is provided.

[0039] One end of the joint spring 201 is limited by the moving shaft 205, and the other end is limited by the clamping seat on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 200. When the sliding sleeve 200 is pushed towards the moving shaft 205, the fixing ring 204 in the sliding sleeve 200 moves towards the steel ball 202, the joint spring 201 is compressed under force, the steel ball 202 falls into the fixing ring 204 from the steel ball hole position, the internal space of the inner lining sleeve is not restricted by the steel ball 202, one end of the winding needle base 301 is inserted into the inner lining sleeve, and the winding needle spring 300 on the winding needle base 301 contacts and is compressed by the bushing base 203. When the winding needle spring 300 is compressed to the maximum amount, the winding needle base 301 contacts the bushing base 203. At this time, the steel ball 202, the steel ball hole position, the fixing ring 204 and the card slot 302 are aligned.

[0040] Since the joint spring 201 is compressed, after releasing the force pushing the sliding sleeve 200, the joint spring 201 returns to its original state, pushing the sliding sleeve 200 back to its original state, the fixing ring 204 moves away from the card slot 302, and a part of the steel ball 202 is in the steel ball hole and a part is in the card slot 302 to limit the position of the winding needle.

[0041] Since the winding needle spring 300 is compressed, after releasing the winding needle, the winding needle spring 300 applies a force towards the winding needle base 301 direction, the steel ball 202 restricts the movement of the winding needle 03, and the force applied by the winding needle spring 300 to the winding needle base 301 makes one end of the steel ball 202 in close contact with the steel ball hole position and the other end in close contact with the inner wall of the card slot 302, realizing the stable installation of the winding needle 03 for use in the joint 02.

[0042] The winding needle piece includes the upper winding needle piece 311 and the lower winding needle piece 319.
