Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of thermal batteries, in particular to a thermal battery powder weighing device. Background Art

[0002] Thermal batteries are primary storage batteries that use molten salt as an electrolyte and are activated by melting it using their own heat source. They offer advantages such as a short activation time, wide operating temperature range, long storage cycles, and are maintenance-free. They are increasingly being used in weapon systems.

[0003] When a thermal battery is working, an external electrical signal or mechanical force is used to ignite the igniter inside the battery. The fire source of the igniter is guided to the heating plate inside the battery through the ignition rod, so that the single battery reaches its operating temperature, and the solid electrolyte that is non-conductive at room temperature is heated and melted into an ionic conductor. An electrochemical reaction occurs between the positive and negative electrodes to generate electrical energy.

[0004] Thermal battery pole pieces are key components of thermal batteries. These pole pieces are formed by pressing a certain amount of thermal battery powder. During pole piece production, the powder is weighed before the pole pieces are formed. Currently, thermal battery powder is weighed manually with a required accuracy of ±0.01g. However, manual weighing can result in significant error rates, necessitating the need for automated weighing equipment to improve accuracy.

[0005] Announcement No. CN214692215U Patent documents disclose a lead powder discharge buffer device for lead-acid batteries. This device primarily addresses the problems of existing lead powder discharge devices, such as large weighing deviations caused by uneven powder discharge speeds during weighing, and the tendency for lead powder to adhere to or remain on the walls of the powder storage silo. Its main features include a lead powder conveying pipeline, a powder storage cylinder, and a lead powder weighing mechanism. The powder storage cylinder is placed on the lead powder weighing mechanism. The lead powder conveying pipeline is horizontally arranged, closed at both ends, and contains a spiral propeller. One upper portion is provided with a feed pipe, and the other lower portion is provided with a discharge pipe. The powder storage cylinder is equipped with a vibrating device. A powder discharge hopper is located below the powder storage cylinder. This utility model ensures a uniform and slow lead powder delivery process during weighing, accurately weighs lead powder, and prevents lead powder from adhering to the cylinder wall or pipe during discharge. It is primarily used for weighing lead powder and precisely controlling lead powder discharge during lead paste and production for lead-acid batteries. The powder storage cylinder in this patent is immovable, making it difficult to disassemble and clean. Furthermore, this patent uses a single weighing method, which is less accurate than multiple weighing.

[0006] Patent document CN206981211U discloses a lithium battery positive electrode powder material mixing and screening system, including a conical mixer, the outlet end of which is sealed with a bidirectional screw conveyor capable of conveying equal amounts of powder materials in two directions.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0027] The technical solution of the present invention is further described below, but the scope of protection claimed is not limited to the described solution.

[0028] Example:

[0029] like Figure 1-7 As shown, a thermal battery powder weighing device includes a frame 1, a coarse weighing mechanism 2, a first-level fine weighing mechanism 3, a second-level fine weighing mechanism 4, a fine weighing control valve 5, and an electronic balance 6. The frame 1 is connected to the first-level fine weighing mechanism 3, the second-level fine weighing mechanism 4, and the electronic balance 6, respectively. The coarse weighing mechanism 2 is connected to the frame 1 via a fixed frame 101, and the fine weighing control valve 5 is connected to the coarse weighing mechanism 2. The high-precision electronic balance 6 has an accuracy of ±0.01g and is used for powder weighing. It also has a communication function and can be connected to other equipment to feedback weighing data.

[0030] The rough weighing mechanism 2 includes a hopper 21, a servo motor 22, a spiral feeding mechanism 23, a slider mechanism 24 and a support mechanism 25. The support mechanism 25 is connected to the fixed frame 101 and is used to support other mechanisms of the rough weighing mechanism 2. The slider mechanism 24 is connected to the fixed frame 101 and is used for sliding the hopper 21, thereby facilitating loading and unloading. The hopper 21 is connected to the slider mechanism 24. The hopper 21 is used to hold powder. The servo motor 22 is set on the hopper 21. The spiral feeding mechanism 23 is connected to the servo motor 22. The spiral feeding mechanism 23 realizes spiral feeding under the action of the servo motor 22.

[0031] The spiral feeding mechanism 23 is provided with a stirring paddle, and the threaded portion of the spiral feeding mechanism 23 is a variable pitch thread, which can prevent the battery powder from agglomerating and causing blockage.

[0032] The slider mechanism 24 includes a slide groove 241 and a slider 242. The cross-section of the slide groove 241 is dovetail-shaped, and the shape of the slider 242 is adapted to the setting of the slide groove 241. The slider 242 is connected to the hopper 21 so that the hopper 21 can move along the slide groove 241. The slide groove 241 and the slider 242 are slidably connected.

[0033] Limit blocks 243 are provided at both ends of the chute 241. The chute 241 passes through the limit blocks 243 for sliding connection. The limit blocks 243 are provided with screw holes 244 and screws 245. The screws 245 pass through one side of the limit blocks 243 through the screw holes 244 to contact and connect with the chute 241.

The vibrator B43 is arranged on the frame body 1, the counterweight plate B41 is arranged on the vibrator B43, and the linear hopper 42 is arranged on the counterweight plate B41. One end of the linear hopper 42 is located above the high-precision electronic balance 6.

The primary fine weighing mechanism 3 and the secondary fine weighing mechanism 4 start working and start fine weighing until the weight of the powder falling into the electronic balance 6 reaches the target value.

[0043] 3) Remove the battery cover:
