Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery steel shells, in particular to a lithium battery steel shell. Background Art

[0002] Lithium batteries can be broadly divided into two categories: lithium metal batteries and lithium-ion batteries. Lithium-ion batteries do not contain metallic lithium and are rechargeable. The fifth generation of rechargeable batteries, lithium metal batteries, was introduced in 1996 and offer superior safety, specific capacity, self-discharge rate, and performance-price ratio to lithium-ion batteries.

[0003] The lithium battery steel shell is a shell installed on the outside of the lithium battery, which can effectively protect the lithium battery and provide sufficient strength support.

[0004] Although the existing lithium battery steel shell can provide a certain degree of protection for lithium batteries, the entire shell needs to be disassembled when placing and replacing the battery. The operation is cumbersome and difficult, making it inconvenient to maintain or replace it, which increases the time and cost of maintenance. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of the utility model is to solve the shortcomings of the prior art that the entire shell needs to be disassembled when replacing the battery, which is cumbersome and difficult to operate, inconvenient to maintain or replace, and increases the time and cost of maintenance, and to propose a lithium battery steel shell.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0008] The outer shell and the lithium battery body, the top of the outer shell is fixedly provided with a shell cover, and the inner part of the outer shell is slidably provided with a placement plate;

[0009] Auxiliary components, which are arranged on the outer shell and are used to facilitate the replacement and installation of the lithium battery body;

[0010] The protective component is arranged on the lithium battery body and is used to enhance the protection of the lithium battery body.

[0011] In a possible design, the auxiliary component includes two placement slots on both sides of the shell, handles are placed inside the two placement slots, two pins are fixedly provided on both sides of the two handles, slots are respectively provided on both sides of the top of the two placement slots, the pins are adapted to the slots, spring sheets are fixedly provided inside the four slots, slide slots connected to the interior of the shell are provided inside the two placement slots, sliders are slidably provided inside the two slide slots, the two sliders are fixedly connected to the two sides of the placement plate, and the top of the two sliders located inside the placement slots are rotatably connected to the bottom of the two handles.

[0012] In one possible design, the protective component includes mounting frames symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the lithium battery body, pads are provided on the front and rear sides of the lithium battery body, and two side panels are fixedly provided on the front and rear sides of the lithium battery body on the outside of the two pads. The two side panels are respectively clamped on the front and rear sides of the two mounting frames, and the two side panels are respectively engaged with the two pads, and baffles are provided on both sides of the left and right sides of the lithium battery body.

[0013] In a possible design, a frame is fixedly provided on the inner side of one of the baffles, and two cooling fans are symmetrically provided on the inner side of the frame.

[0014] In a possible design, four corner pads are fixedly provided at the four inner corners of the shell.

[0015] In a possible design, through holes are provided on both sides of the baffle of the housing, and heat dissipation holes are provided on the pad, side plate and baffle.

When the lithium battery body needs to be replaced, the buckles on the handles on both sides of the shell are pressed to buckle the pin on the handle from the slot, and then the handle is rotated on the slider to disengage from the placement slot. Then, hold the handle with both hands and move it upward. While the two handles move upward, they drive the two sliders to slide on the slide slot, thereby driving the placement plate to move upward inside the shell, so that the placement plate supports the lithium battery body and moves upward, thereby pushing the lithium battery body out from the inside of the shell, and then remove the lithium battery body and install a new lithium battery body. After the new lithium battery body is placed, the handle is rotated and placed in the placement slot, and then the handle is pressed to make the pin on the handle fit into the slot, and the pin is locked by the spring sheet in the slot to prevent the handle from falling off. When the battery needs to be repaired or replaced, the lithium battery body can be easily removed to reduce maintenance time and cost. There is no need to disassemble the entire shell. You only need to easily remove the battery body to perform necessary maintenance or replacement.

[0017] The battery pack is then released from the outer casing and replaced with a new one. When the battery pack is replaced, the handles are rotated and snapped into place in the slots. The spring sheet in the slot locks the handles, preventing the handles from falling off. When the battery pack needs to be repaired or replaced, there is no need to disassemble the entire outer casing. Instead, the battery pack can be easily removed to perform necessary maintenance or replacement, thereby reducing repair time and cost.

[0018] In the present invention, the lithium battery steel shell can protect the lithium battery body through the provision of a protective component, thereby increasing the mechanical strength of the lithium battery, improving its anti-extrusion, anti-bending and anti-vibration capabilities, and reducing the damage of the battery caused by excessive force during use;

[0019] The utility model provides auxiliary components, so when the battery needs to be repaired or replaced, there is no need to dismantle the entire shell. It is only necessary to easily remove the lithium battery body to perform necessary maintenance or replacement, thereby reducing repair time and cost. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

The latch pins 8 are adapted to the slots 9. Spring sheets 10 are fixedly provided inside the four slots 9. A slide 4 connected to the interior of the shell 1 is provided inside the two placement slots 5. Sliders 6 are slidably provided inside the two slide slots 4. The two slides 4 are respectively fixedly connected to the two sides of the placement plate 3. The top of the two slides 6 located inside the placement slot 5 is rotatably connected to the bottom of the two handles 7.

[0032] The above technical solution can achieve the setting of the handle 7, the slider 6 and the placement plate 3. When the lithium battery body 12 needs to be replaced, the buckles on the handles 7 on both sides of the shell 1 are pulled to buckle the latch 8 on the handle 7 from the slot 9, and then the handle 7 is rotated on the slider 6 to disengage from the placement slot 5. Then, the two hands hold the handle 7 and move it upward. While the two handles 7 move upward, the two sliders 6 slide on the slide 4, thereby driving the placement plate 3 to move upward inside the shell 1, so that the placement plate 3 supports the lithium battery body 12 and moves upward, thereby removing the lithium battery body 12 from the shell. 1, and then the lithium battery body 12 is removed and a new lithium battery body 12 is installed. When the battery needs to be repaired or replaced, there is no need to remove the entire shell. You only need to easily remove the lithium battery body 12 and perform necessary maintenance or replacement, which can reduce maintenance time and cost. Through the arrangement of the bayonet 8, the slot 9 and the spring piece 10, after the new lithium battery body 12 is placed, the handle 7 is rotated and placed in the placement slot 5, and then the handle 7 is pressed so that the bayonet 8 on the handle 7 is stuck in the slot 9, and the bayonet 8 is stuck by the spring piece 10 in the slot 9 to prevent the handle 7 from falling off.

[0033] Reference Figure 3The protective component includes mounting brackets 13 symmetrically arranged on the upper and lower sides of the lithium battery body 12, and pads 14 are provided on the front and rear sides of the lithium battery body 12.
