[0002] A UPS, or uninterruptible power supply, is an uninterruptible power supply that includes an energy storage device. It's primarily used to provide uninterrupted power to devices requiring high power stability. The UPS battery terminals are divided into positive and negative poles. The batteries are connected in series within the battery compartment, connecting the positive terminal of one battery to the negative terminal of another. This connection leaves two leads, one positive and one negative. The connections between the terminals are typically made by snapping the wire's terminal onto the electrode, then tightening the terminal to the electrode by rotating a bolt above the electrode.
[0003] This connection method requires rotating the bolt to clamp the end of the wire, which is inconvenient to operate, and the electrode interface is exposed outside the power supply and is easily damaged. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a UPS power supply electrode safety protection device with a simple structure. A protective shell is provided surrounding the UPS power supply electrode. While protecting the electrode, the electrode connection point can be clamped and released by pressing. The device is easy to operate, highly safe, and suitable for promotion.
[0005] The utility model provides the following technical solutions: a UPS power supply electrode safety protection device, comprising a protective shell, wherein the protective shell is fixedly mounted on the electrode column of the UPS power supply outer plate;
[0006] A pressing plate is provided on the top of the protective shell, and the front and rear sides of the pressing plate are slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective shell via sliders. A built-in sleeve is fixed on the lower surface of the pressing plate facing the electrode column, and a pressure ring is fixed on the bottom of the built-in sleeve via a mounting seat, and the pressure ring is sleeved on the electrode column.
[0007] The top of the electrode column is inserted into the built-in sleeve and fixed with a spring seat, and the built-in sleeve is fixed with a first spring supported on the spring seat;
[0008] Symmetrical side cavities are provided on both sides of the protective shell, and a sliding column is provided through the outer wall of the side cavity. A support block is fixedly provided at one end of the sliding column located in the side cavity. A protrusion is provided in the middle of the side of the support block facing the electrode column, and a first inclined sliding surface is provided on the upper and lower sides of the protrusion. A second spring is sleeved on a section of the sliding column located in the side cavity;
[0009] The protective shell is provided with a horizontal frame above the pressing plate, and the two sides of the horizontal frame extend to the two sides of the pressing plate and are fixed with symmetrical slides. The slides penetrate into the protective shell and the bottom position is opposite to the first inclined sliding surface. Bending plates are fixed on both sides of the bottom of the pressing plate, and the bending plates are opposite to the first inclined sliding surface.
[0010] Preferably, the mounting seat and the spring seat are insulating seats.
[0011] Preferably, the bending plate is bent downward along the pressing plate and then extends toward the pressing plate. Second inclined sliding surfaces are provided on the upper and lower sides of the top of the bending plate, and the second inclined sliding surface is slidably connected to the first inclined sliding surface.
[0012] Preferably, the slide plate extends downward to the first inclined sliding surface located on the upper side of the support block and is provided with a third inclined sliding surface, the third inclined sliding surface is slidably connected to the first inclined sliding surface, and when the slide plate is pressed down to the lowest position, the support block is separated from the bending plate.
[0013] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the structure is simple, a protective shell is provided around the UPS power supply electrode, the electrode is protected, and the electrode connection is clamped and released by pressing, which is easy to operate and highly safe. The details are as follows:
[0014] (1) The utility model is provided with a protective shell, which covers the outside of the electrode column to protect the electrode column. When wiring the electrode column, the port of the wire is inserted from the opening of the protective shell and pressed on the electrode column. At this time, the pressing plate is pressed down, driving the bending plate to be pressed down. The second inclined sliding surface of the bending plate presses down the first inclined sliding surface above the support block. The support block opens to both sides. After the second inclined sliding surface passes through the first inclined sliding surface above, the first inclined sliding surface below the support block squeezes the second inclined sliding surface. Under the push of the second spring, a downward force is generated on the second inclined sliding surface, so that the pressing plate is subjected to downward pressure. The pressure ring connected to the pressing plate generates downward pressure on the port of the wire, clamping it on the electrode column, and realizing the downward pressing of the pressing plate to complete the wiring of the electrode column.
[0015] (2) The utility model is provided with a horizontal frame. When the wires need to be removed, the horizontal frame is pressed. During the process of descending, the horizontal frame drives the slide plate to move downward. The third inclined sliding surface at the lower end of the slide plate presses the first inclined sliding surface above the support block, so that the support block opens to both sides. The pressure of the support block on the bending plate disappears. When the slide plate is pressed down to the lowest position, the support block is separated from the bending plate, and under the rebound of the first spring, the bending plate moves to align with the first inclined sliding surface above the support block. After releasing the horizontal frame, the support block rebounds, and the first inclined sliding surface above it pushes the bending plate and the pressing plate to rise to the highest point, so that the port of the wire can be removed and ready for the next clamping.

The front and rear sides of the pressing plate 5 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the protective shell 1 through a slider 6. The pressing plate 5 is pressed to make it vertically rise and fall on the protective shell 1, and the lower surface of the pressing plate 5 is fixed with an inner sleeve 10 facing the electrode column 3. When the pressing plate 5 is pressed down, the electrode column 3 extends into the inner sleeve 10, and the bottom of the inner sleeve 10 is fixed with a pressure ring 12 through a mounting seat 11. The pressure ring 12 is mounted on the electrode column 3, and the port of the external wire is pressed by the pressure ring 12.

[0028] See also Figure 1-2 Symmetrical side cavities 4 are provided on both sides of the protective shell 1. A sliding column 9 is provided on the outer wall of the side cavity 4. The sliding column 9 is located in the side cavity 4 and a support block 16 is fixed at one end. The sliding column 9 slides on the side cavity 4, driving the support block 16 to move horizontally. A protrusion is provided in the middle of the support block 16 facing the electrode column 3. A first inclined sliding surface 18 is provided on the upper and lower sides of the protrusion. A second spring 17 is provided in a section of the sliding column 9 located in the side cavity 4. The second spring 17 provides thrust, and under the action of the inclined surface, the lateral thrust is converted into a positive thrust. To exert upward or downward pressure on the pressing plate 5, the protective shell 1 is provided with a horizontal frame 7 above the pressing plate 5. Both sides of the horizontal frame 7 extend to both sides of the pressing plate 5 and are fixed with symmetrical slides 8. The slides 8 penetrate into the protective shell 1 and the bottom position is opposite to the first inclined sliding surface 18. The first inclined sliding surface 18 is pressed down by the slide 8 to open the support block 16 to both sides. Bending plates 15 are fixed on both sides of the bottom of the pressing plate 5. The bending plates 15 are opposite to the first inclined sliding surface 18. The bending plates 15 are squeezed by the first inclined sliding surface 18 to make the pressing plate 5 move up and down.
[0029] See also Figure 2-3 The bent plate 15 is bent downward along the pressing plate 5 and then extends toward the pressing plate 5. A second inclined sliding surface 19 is provided on the upper and lower sides of the top of the bent plate 15. The second inclined sliding surface 19 is slidably connected to the first inclined sliding surface 18.

At this time, the pressing plate 5 is pressed down, driving the bending plate 15 to be pressed down, and the second inclined sliding surface 19 of the bending plate 15 presses down the first inclined sliding surface 18 above the support block 16. The support block 16 opens to both sides. After the second inclined sliding surface 19 passes the first inclined sliding surface 18 above, the first inclined sliding surface 18 below the support block 16 squeezes the second inclined sliding surface 19. Under the push of the second spring 17, a downward force is generated on the second inclined sliding surface 19, so that the pressing plate 5 is subjected to downward pressure. The pressure ring 12 connected to the pressing plate 5 generates downward pressure on the port of the wire, clamping it on the electrode column 3, completing the wiring of the electrode column 3;
[0032] Reference Figure 2 、 3 , 5. When the wires need to be removed, by pressing the cross frame 7, the cross frame 7 drives the slide plate 8 to move downward during the descending process, and the third inclined sliding surface 20 at the lower end of the slide plate 8 squeezes the first inclined sliding surface 18 above the support block 16, so that the support block 16 opens to both sides, and the pressure of the support block 16 on the bending plate 15 disappears. When the slide plate 8 is pressed down to the lowest position, the support block 16 is separated from the bending plate 15, and under the rebound of the first spring 14, the bending plate 15 moves to align with the first inclined sliding surface 18 above the support block 16. After releasing the cross frame 7, the support block 16 rebounds, and the first inclined sliding surface 18 above it pushes the bending plate 15 and the pressing plate 5 to rise to the highest point, and the port of the wire is removed.
