[0002] In the field of electronics, batteries are widely used to provide electrical energy to electronic devices.

[0003] In the related art, the battery and the electronic device are fixed by the cooperation of the lock seat and the lock pin. The lock pin is fixed to the device housing. The lock seat is rotatably provided on the outer shell of the battery. The lock seat is provided with a locking groove and a notch connected to the locking groove. The lock pin is provided with a locking protrusion. When the battery is installed in the battery compartment of the electronic device, the locking protrusion can pass through the notch. Then, by rotating the lock seat, the locking groove and the locking protrusion can be cooperated, thereby realizing the fastening installation of the battery and the electronic device.

[0004] However, this assembly and locking method of the battery and the electronic device is prone to loosening of the lock seat due to vibration, collision or improper operation during use, which in turn causes the battery to become loose and misaligned.

[0005] Therefore, how to prevent the battery and the electronic device from becoming loose after being assembled and locked is a problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0006] In view of this, an object of the present invention is to provide a battery that can be locked to an electronic device to prevent it from loosening.

[0007] Another object of the present invention is to provide an electronic device comprising the battery, which can prevent the battery from becoming loose after being assembled and locked with the electronic device.

[0008] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention provides the following technical solutions:

[0009] A battery comprises a battery housing and a locking assembly provided on the battery housing, wherein the locking assembly comprises:

[0010] A locking seat is rotatably mounted on the battery housing, wherein the locking seat is provided with a locking groove, a notch communicating with the locking groove, and a first buckle position;

[0011] The lock pin is provided with a lock buckle and a second buckle position. The notch is used to allow the lock buckle to pass through. When the lock pin is locked with the lock buckle seat, the lock buckle is fixed with the locking groove, and the first buckle position is buckled with the second buckle position.

[0012] Optionally, one of the first buckle position and the second buckle position includes a buckle, and the other includes a slot for engaging with the buckle.

[0013] Optionally, a chamfer is provided on one side of the buckle facing the fastening direction.

[0015] Optionally, the cross-sections of the buckle and the slot are respectively rectangular.

[0016] Optionally, the locking seat is provided with a first locking position, and the first locking position is aligned and matched with a second locking position of the battery compartment cover of the electronic device when the locking seat is in the locking position.

[0017] Optionally, one of the first engaging position and the second engaging position is a protrusion, and the other is a groove for cooperating with the protrusion.

[0018] Optionally, the protrusion is provided on the top of the locking seat.

[0019] Optionally, the raised portion is a straight-line raised portion.

[0020] Optionally, the edge of the protrusion is provided with a rounded corner.

[0021] Optionally, the battery housing is provided with an identification portion, and when the locking seat is located in the locking position, the preset position of the first locking position is aligned with the identification portion.

[0022] An electronic device comprises any one of the above batteries.

[0023] Optionally, the electronic device is provided with a mounting slot, and the locking pin is cooperatively connected to the mounting slot.

[0024] Optionally, when the locking seat is provided with a first locking position, the battery compartment cover of the electronic device is provided with a second locking position, and the second locking position is used to align and cooperate with the first locking position when the locking seat is in the locking position.

[0025] The battery provided by the utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0026] When the battery is installed in the electronic device, the lock pin is connected to the electronic device so that the notch of the lock catch seat is aligned with the lock catch of the lock pin and inserted. When the battery is installed in place, the lock catch can be inserted into the locking groove by rotating the lock catch seat, and the locking groove and the lock catch can be rotated relative to each other. When the lock catch seat is rotated to the locking position, the first buckle position and the second buckle position are engaged to achieve the fixation of the lock catch seat and the lock pin, thereby fixing the battery and the electronic device relatively.

[0027] That is to say, the battery utilizes the cooperation between the lock buckle and the locking groove, and combines the buckling of the first buckle position and the second buckle position to realize the fixation of the lock buckle seat and the lock pin, so as to realize the fixation of the battery and the electronic device, thereby locking the battery in the electronic device. Compared with the related technology that only utilizes the friction between the lock buckle and the locking groove to realize the fixation of the battery, in the embodiment of the utility model, through the geometric cooperation of the first buckle position and the second buckle position, the lock buckle seat can be firmly stuck on the lock pin after being rotated into place, ensuring that there is a stable contact area between the lock buckle seat and the lock pin, thereby improving the cooperation accuracy and stability of the lock buckle seat and the lock pin, avoiding the lock buckle seat from loosening due to external environmental changes such as vibration, collision or improper operation, thereby effectively preventing the battery from loosening and dislocation after being locked with the electronic device, thereby improving the stability and safety of the battery.

[0028] On the other hand, in a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the battery provided by the present invention also has the following beneficial effects:

[0029] A first latching position is set on the latch seat, which cooperates with the second latching position on the battery compartment cover to achieve fool-proofing during the assembly process of the battery compartment cover, that is, the locking function of the latch seat and the detection function of detecting whether the latch seat is locked are integrated into one. During the assembly process of the battery and the electronic device, the operator only needs to rotate the latch seat into place to ensure that the battery is safely locked. At the same time, when installing the battery compartment cover, it is possible to check whether the latch seat is rotated into place, avoiding the tedious steps of using tools to check whether the battery is locked in place, thereby improving assembly efficiency. Moreover, when the latch seat is not rotated into place due to improper human operation, it can be detected in time. At the same time, it can avoid the situation where the latch seat is rotated into place and before the battery compartment cover is assembled, and it is not possible to find it in time due to slight movement or looseness, thereby avoiding the installation of the battery compartment cover when the battery is not locked. That is, the battery can ensure the accuracy of the battery locking status and the efficiency of detection without adding additional operational complexity, ensuring a firm assembly connection, reducing battery loosening caused by improper rotation of the lock seat due to human operational errors, effectively solving safety hazards caused by human operational errors, improving the safety of battery assembly, reducing accidental risks during the assembly process, and improving product quality and safety.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0049] The following will be combined with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0050] The core of the present invention is to provide a battery that can prevent loosening after being locked with an electronic device. Another core of the present invention is to provide an electronic device including the battery, which can prevent loosening after being assembled and locked with the electronic device.

[0051] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5 , an embodiment of the utility model provides a battery, including a battery housing 1 and a locking assembly 2 provided on the battery housing 1, the locking assembly 2 including a locking seat 21 and a locking pin 22, the locking seat 21 is rotatably provided on the battery housing 1, the locking seat 21 is provided with a locking groove 211, a notch 212 connected to the locking groove 211 and a first buckle position 213; the locking pin 22 is provided with a locking catch 221 and a second buckle position 222, the notch 212 is used to allow the locking catch 221 to pass through, when the locking pin 22 is locked with the locking seat 21, the locking catch 221 is fixed with the locking groove 211, the first buckle position 213 is buckled with the second buckle position 222, and the locking pin 22 is used to connect with the electronic device.

[0052] When the battery is installed in the electronic device, the lock pin 22 is connected to the electronic device so that the notch 212 of the lock seat 21 is aligned with the lock 221 of the lock pin 22 and inserted (as shown in FIG. Figure 2 As shown), when the battery is installed in place, the lock 221 is located at the connection between the locking groove 211 and the notch 212 (as shown in FIG. Figure 3As shown), at this time, by rotating the lock seat 21, the lock 221 can enter the locking groove 211 and the locking groove 211 and the lock 221 can rotate relative to each other. When the lock seat 21 is rotated to the locking position, the first buckle 213 and the second buckle 222 are buckled (as shown). Figure 4 As shown), the lock seat 21 and the lock pin 22 are fixed, thereby fixing the battery and the electronic device relatively.

[0053] That is to say, the embodiment of the present invention utilizes the cooperation between the lock buckle 221 and the locking groove 211, and combines the buckling of the first buckle position 213 and the second buckle position 222 to achieve the fixation of the lock buckle seat 21 and the lock pin 22, so as to achieve the fixation of the battery and the electronic device, thereby locking the battery in the electronic device. Compared with the related technology that only uses the friction between the lock buckle 221 and the locking groove 211 to achieve the fixation of the battery, in the embodiment of the present invention, through the geometric cooperation of the first buckle position 213 and the second buckle position 222, the lock buckle seat 21 can be firmly stuck on the lock pin 22 after being rotated into place, ensuring that there is a stable contact area between the lock buckle seat 21 and the lock pin 22, thereby improving the cooperation accuracy and stability of the lock buckle seat 21 and the lock pin 22, avoiding the lock buckle seat 21 from loosening due to external environmental changes such as vibration, collision or improper operation, thereby effectively preventing the battery from loosening and dislocation after being locked with the electronic device, thereby improving the stability and safety of the battery.

[0054] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific structure of the first buckle position 213 and the second buckle position 222, as long as the two can be buckled together to limit the position.

[0055] In some embodiments, one of the first and second latching positions 213 and 222 includes a buckle, and the other includes a slot for engaging with the buckle. That is, when the latch seat 21 is rotated into position, the buckle engages with the slot, locking the latch seat 21 and the locking pin 22. This structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0056] Furthermore, to enhance the smoothness of the engagement, in some embodiments, the buckle is provided with a chamfered angle on one side facing the engagement direction. That is, when the lock seat 21 rotates to engage the buckle into the slot, the buckle gradually enters the slot from the chamfered angle, which facilitates the buckle's smooth and stable entry into the slot, thereby enhancing the stability and smoothness of the engagement between the buckle and the slot.

[0057] In addition, the above embodiment does not limit the specific arrangement positions of the buckle and the slot. As long as the buckle and the slot correspond to each other, the two can be engaged when the lock seat 21 is rotated to the locking position.

[0058] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2In some embodiments, the buckle is located on the upper or lower wall of the locking groove 211; the slot is located at the top or bottom of the lock buckle 221. It is understood that when the buckle is located on the upper wall of the locking groove 211, the slot is located at the top of the lock buckle 221; when the buckle is located on the lower wall of the locking groove 211, the slot is located at the bottom of the lock buckle 221, so that the buckle and the slot can be correspondingly engaged. This arrangement allows the buckle and the slot to be located on the sliding contact surface between the lock buckle 221 and the locking groove 211, which facilitates locking when the lock buckle seat 21 is at a desired angle by arranging the buckle at any desired position on the sliding contact surface.

[0059] Of course, in other embodiments, one of the buckle and the slot can also be provided on the side of the lock buckle 221, and the other can be provided on the side wall of the locking slot 211 at the end away from the notch 212. In this way, when the lock buckle seat 21 rotates until the side of the lock buckle 221 abuts the end of the locking slot 211 away from the notch 212, the lock buckle seat 21 is in the locked position. At this time, the buckle and the slot are tightly engaged. It should be noted that in this case, the buckle must have a hook that is locked and fixed to the slot to prevent the buckle from separating from the slot.

[0060] When the buckle is disposed on the upper slot wall or the lower slot wall of the locking slot 211 and the locking slot is disposed on the top end or the bottom end of the locking buckle 221 , it is only necessary to insert the buckle into the locking slot.

[0061] In addition, the above embodiment does not limit the specific shapes of the buckle and the slot, as long as the buckle and the slot can be engaged. It is understandable that in order to make the buckle and the slot better fit, the shapes of the buckle and the slot match.

[0062] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the cross-sections of the buckle and the slot are rectangular. It is understood that a rectangle has four sides, and therefore the buckle and the slot have four mating surfaces. This facilitates the use of the geometric shapes of the buckle and the slot to achieve a tighter fit, further preventing the locking seat 21 from loosening due to changes in the external environment.

[0063] Taking into account the convenience of structural design, further, the cross-sections of the buckle and the slot are respectively square.

[0064] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific dimensions of the buckle and the slot, as long as the buckle and the slot can be effectively fastened. In some embodiments, the length of the buckle ranges from 0.6mm to 0.8mm, the width of the buckle ranges from 0.3mm to 0.5mm, and the height of the buckle ranges from 0.15mm to 0.2mm. The length, width, and height of the slot are all correspondingly larger than the length, width, and height of the buckle by 0.1mm to 0.3mm. Furthermore, in some embodiments, the length, width, and height of the buckle each have a dimensional tolerance band of 0.05mm to 0.1mm. In addition, in some embodiments, the fitting clearance between the buckle and the slot is 0.1mm.

[0065] In addition, it should be noted that in order to facilitate the engagement of the buckle with the slot, in some embodiments, the buckle is an elastic member or a plastic member. It is understood that the buckle made of elastic material or plastic material can be squeezed and deformed before being inserted into the slot, allowing the lock seat 21 to rotate smoothly. When the buckle is aligned with the slot, the buckle can recover its deformation and be inserted into the slot. In this way, it can avoid the difficulty of rotating the lock seat 21 due to structural interference, and facilitate the clamping and fixing of the buckle and the slot.

[0066] It can be seen from the above embodiment that when the locking seat 21 and the locking pin 22 are locked and fixed, it indicates that the battery is locked in place on the electronic device. If the locking seat 21 is not rotated into place due to human operating errors, the battery is not locked in place. The battery may become loose when the consumer uses the electronic device, which may bring potential safety risks. Therefore, during the production and assembly process of the electronic device, it is necessary to quickly detect and confirm whether the battery has been correctly assembled and locked.

[0067] Please refer to Figure 7 、 Figure 8 and Figure 9 In order to facilitate the detection of whether the battery is locked in place, in some embodiments, the lock seat 21 is provided with a first engaging position 214. The first engaging position 214 is used to align with the second engaging position 61 of the battery compartment cover 6 of the electronic device when the lock seat 21 is in the locked position. In other words, when the lock seat 21 is in the locked position (which indicates that the battery is locked and fixed), the first engaging position 214 can be aligned with the second engaging position 61 (such as Figure 8 As shown), at this time, the battery compartment cover 6 can be installed smoothly; otherwise, when the lock seat 21 is not in the locking position, the first clamping position 214 cannot be aligned with the second clamping position 61 when the battery compartment cover 6 is installed, and the first clamping position 214 will interfere with the second clamping position 61 (as shown). Figure 9 As shown), the battery compartment cover 6 cannot be installed, so that it can be detected that the lock seat 21 is not rotated to the locking position, that is, the battery is not in the locked state.

[0068] Thus, it can be seen that this embodiment provides a first latching position 214 on the latch seat 21, which cooperates with the second latching position 61 on the battery compartment cover 6, so as to achieve fool-proofing during the assembly process of the battery compartment cover 6, that is, the locking function of the latch seat 21 and the detection function of detecting whether the latch seat 21 is locked are integrated into one. During the assembly process of the battery and the electronic device, the operator only needs to rotate the latch seat 21 into place to ensure that the battery is safely locked. At the same time, when installing the battery compartment cover 6, it is possible to check whether the latch seat 21 is rotated into place, avoiding the tedious steps of using tools to check whether the battery is locked in place, thereby improving the assembly efficiency. Moreover, when the latch seat 21 is not rotated into place due to improper human operation, it can be detected in time. At the same time, it can be avoided that after the latch seat 21 is rotated into place and before the battery compartment cover 6 is assembled, there is a slight movement or looseness that cannot be discovered in time, thereby avoiding the installation of the battery compartment cover 6 when the battery is not locked. That is, this embodiment can ensure the accuracy of the battery locking state and the efficiency of detection, and this embodiment will not increase additional operational complexity, ensure that the assembly connection is firm, reduce the loosening of the battery caused by the locking seat 21 not rotating into place due to human operation errors, effectively solve the safety hazards caused by human operation errors, improve the safety of battery assembly, reduce the risk of accidents during the assembly process, and improve the quality and safety of the product.

[0069] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific structures of the first engaging position 214 and the second engaging position 61 , as long as the first engaging position 214 and the second engaging position 61 can be aligned and engaged with each other.

[0070] In some embodiments, one of the first engaging position 214 and the second engaging position 61 is a protrusion, and the other is a groove for engaging with the protrusion. That is, when the latch seat 21 is rotated to the locked position, the protrusion can be aligned with the groove when the battery compartment cover 6 is installed. This allows the protrusion to extend into the groove, allowing the battery compartment cover 6 to be installed. However, when the latch seat 21 is not fully rotated, the protrusion cannot be aligned with the groove when the battery compartment cover 6 is installed. Therefore, the protrusion cannot enter the groove, preventing the battery compartment cover 6 from being installed. This allows detection that the latch seat 21 is not fully rotated, i.e., that the battery is not locked. This structure is simple and easy to implement.

[0071] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific setting positions of the protrusion and the groove. For example, the protrusion can be set on the battery compartment cover 6 and the groove can be set on the lock seat 21, or the protrusion can be set on the lock seat 21 and the groove can be set on the battery compartment cover 6.

[0072] In some embodiments, a raised portion is provided on the top of the latch seat 21. Thus, when the latch seat 21 needs to be rotated, the raised portion can be manipulated to drive the latch seat 21 to rotate. Therefore, no tools are required to operate the latch seat 21. In other words, the raised portion cooperates with the groove portion to detect whether the latch seat 21 is fully rotated, while also bearing external forces to drive the latch seat 21 to rotate. This intuitive and easy-to-operate structure reduces the possibility of operator error, providing greater convenience and confidence when locking the battery, and reducing the operator's operational burden.

[0073] It should be noted that the above embodiment does not limit the specific shape of the protrusion, as long as the protrusion can protrude from the top of the lock seat 21 to facilitate operation.

[0074] In order to improve the convenience of operation, in some embodiments, the raised portion is a straight-line raised portion. It is understandable that the straight-line raised portion is easy to grasp and has no additional structure to interfere with the operator, which can improve the convenience of operation. At the same time, the straight-line raised portion is simple and easy to process.

[0075] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific size of the straight-line protrusion, so long as it is convenient for manual operation and automatic operation of the device and does not occupy too much space on the battery and electronic equipment.

[0076] In some embodiments, the length of the straight-shaped protrusion ranges from 3.5 mm to 6.5 mm, the width ranges from 1 mm to 3 mm, and the height ranges from 3 mm to 8 mm. This size range of the straight-shaped protrusion facilitates both manual and automatic operation of the device, and does not occupy excessive space on the battery and electronic device.

[0077] In addition, in some embodiments, the edge of the protrusion is provided with a rounded corner. On the one hand, the rounded corner facilitates the protrusion to enter the groove; on the other hand, when the operator rotates the lock seat 21 by operating the protrusion, the rounded corner is smooth and burr-free, which can prevent the operator from being cut by the sharp edge of the protrusion, thereby improving operational safety.

[0078] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the radius R of the rounded corner ranges from 0.2 mm to 0.5 mm.

[0079] In addition, in order to more intuitively confirm whether the lock seat 21 is rotated into place, please refer to Figure 10-15In some embodiments, the battery housing 1 is provided with an identification portion 111. When the locking seat 21 is in the locked position, the preset position of the first engaging portion 214 is aligned with the identification portion 111. In other words, by adding the identification portion 111, this embodiment uses the identification portion 111 as a reference to determine whether the locking seat 21 has been rotated to the locked position. When the locking seat 21 is rotated to the locked position, the preset position of the first engaging portion 214 is aligned with the identification portion 111. When the locking seat 21 has not been rotated to the locked position, the preset position of the first engaging portion 214 is misaligned with the identification portion 111. This embodiment allows the operator to clearly determine whether the battery is locked after rotating the locking seat 21, thereby improving operational accuracy and safety.

[0080] It should be noted that this embodiment does not limit the specific structure and shape of the identification portion 111, as long as it can serve as an alignment standard. For example, in some embodiments, the identification portion 111 is a Lock logo, and the first engaging position 214 is a straight-line protrusion. When one end of the straight-line protrusion is aligned with the Lock logo, it indicates that the lock seat 21 is rotated into place. When the operator operates the lock seat 21, when the lock 221 just passes through the notch 212 and enters the entrance of the locking groove 211, the alignment end of the straight-line protrusion is not aligned with the Lock logo, as shown in FIG. Figure 10 and Figure 11 When the lock seat 21 is not rotated to the locking position, the alignment end of the I-shaped protrusion is not aligned with the Lock word mark, as shown Figure 12 and Figure 13 Until the lock seat 21 is rotated to the locking position, the alignment end of the I-shaped raised portion is aligned with the Lock word mark, as shown Figure 14 and Figure 15 shown.

[0081] For easy observation, in some embodiments, the battery housing 1 includes a plastic upper cover, and the identification portion 111 is provided on the plastic upper cover.

[0082] In the above embodiments, the lock seat 21 and the lock pin 22 can be respectively made of plastic, metal or other materials, and those skilled in the art can choose according to actual needs.

[0083] In addition, the above embodiment does not specifically limit the structures of other parts of the battery. For example, please refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the battery further includes a battery cell 3 and a protection board 4. The battery cell 3 is used to store electrical energy, and the protection board 4 is used to control the charging and discharging of the battery cell 3. The battery cell 3 and the protection board 4 constitute the core unit of the battery. The battery cell 3 and the protection board 4 can be connected by laser welding, soldering, or other connection methods to achieve circuit connection and tightening.

[0084] Also, please continue to refer to Figure 6In some embodiments, the battery housing 1 includes a plastic upper shell 11 and a plastic lower shell 12. These upper and lower shells 11 and 12 form the battery's outer contour and provide insulation. During battery assembly, the core unit formed by the battery cells 3 and protective plate 4 is placed within the plastic lower shell 12. The upper and lower shells 11 and 12 are then fastened together to form a stable, integrated unit.

[0085] For further information, please refer to Figure 6 In some embodiments, the plastic upper shell 11 is covered with an identification label 5 .

[0086] In addition to the above-mentioned battery, the present invention also provides an electronic device including the battery disclosed in the above-mentioned embodiment. For the structures of other parts of the electronic device, please refer to the relevant technology and will not be described in detail herein.

[0087] The key point of this embodiment is that the battery disclosed in any of the above embodiments has the same beneficial effects as the above batteries, which will not be described in detail here.

[0088] In addition, it should be noted that the above embodiment does not limit the specific connection method between the lock pin 22 and the electronic device, as long as the connection between the two can be achieved.

[0089] In some embodiments, the electronic device is provided with a mounting slot, and the locking pin 22 engages with the mounting slot. That is, when the battery is installed in the electronic device, one end of the locking pin 22 is inserted into the mounting slot, and the locking pin 22 is engaged with the mounting slot to secure the locking pin 22 to the electronic device.

[0090] Of course, in other embodiments, the locking pin 22 may also be fixed to the electronic device by bonding, welding, or thermal connection.
