For ordinary workers in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the utility model can be understood according to the specific circumstances.

[0027] In addition, the technical features involved in different embodiments of the utility model described below can be combined with each other as long as there is no conflict.

[0028] A liquid cooling pipe is usually arranged in a battery pack. In order to realize pipe sealing, a locking buckle 2 is arranged at a joint connecting position of the liquid cooling pipe and a liquid cooling plate and at a joint connecting position between the liquid cooling pipes. A sealing ring is arranged in the locking buckle 2. The sealing ring can seal the joint connecting position, so as to avoid leakage of the liquid cooling medium at the joint connecting position. At present, when the sealing locking buckle 2 is installed, a technician usually installs the locking buckle 2 manually. When the locking buckle 2 is installed, because the operation space in the battery pack is relatively small, the technician needs to pinch the locking buckle 2 with the thumb and the index finger and then move the locking buckle 2 to a locking position by force. However, after the locking buckle 2 is operated for many times, the fingers will be tired due to frequent force, and thus the technician cannot guarantee that the locking buckle 2 is installed in place every time, so that the sealing ring is dislocated from the joint connecting position, and liquid leakage may occur.

[0029] Therefore, the utility model provides a pipe locking installation detection device to solve the problem that the locking buckle 2 cannot be installed in place when the locking buckle 2 is manually installed.

[0030] The embodiments of the utility model will be described below in combination with Figures 1 to 8 .

[0031] According to the embodiments of the utility model, on the one hand, a pipe locking installation detection device is provided. The installation detection device is used for installing a locking buckle 2 on a pipe joint 1. The locking buckle 2 is movably connected to the pipe joint 1. The locking buckle 2 has an initial position (as shown in Figures 4 to 6 ) and a sealing position (as shown in Figure 7 , Figure 8 ) on the pipe joint 1. After the pipe joint 1 and the liquid cooling plate are fixed, the locking buckle 2 needs to be moved from the initial position to the sealing position, so that the sealing ring in the locking buckle 2 can seal the joint connecting position.

[0032] In the embodiments of the utility model, the installation detection device comprises a housing 3, an installation head 4, and a prompting assembly 6.

[0033] Specifically, the housing 3 is internally provided with a working element of the prompting assembly 6. One end of the housing 3 is connected to the installation head 4. The housing 3 or the outside of the housing 3 can be provided with the prompting assembly 6. In this way, the housing 3 can serve as a connection between the installation head 4 and the prompting assembly 6. Meanwhile, the technician can hold the housing 3 during actual use. Because the volume of the housing 3 is larger than that of the locking buckle 2, the technician can also exert force conveniently.

[0034] Of course, the housing 3 can also be replaced by a telescopic housing 3 according to actual conditions. In this way, when the technician installs the locking buckle 2 on the pipe joint 1 inside the battery pack, the actual length of the housing 3 can be adjusted to meet the use requirements of the technician.

[0035] Further, in the embodiment of the utility model, the mounting head 4 is arranged on the shell 3, the mounting head 4 is provided with accommodating cavity, the accommodating cavity is suitable for accommodating the pipeline joint 1. For the depth of accommodating cavity, it is best to be as large as possible than the length of pipeline joint 1, so that the versatility of accommodating cavity can be improved. Of course, a plurality of specifications of mounting head 4 can be arranged, so that the specification of accommodating cavity corresponds to the specification of pipeline joint 1.

[0036] Further, in the embodiment of the utility model, the mounting head 4 is provided with abutting portion 5, the abutting portion 5 is suitable for abutting with the locking buckle 2. When the technical personnel operate the mounting head 4 to insert the pipeline joint 1 into the accommodating cavity, the abutting portion 5 pushes the locking buckle 2 from the initial position of the pipeline joint 1 to the sealing position.

[0037] In the embodiment, the abutting portion 5 can be an abutting surface or an abutting protrusion. Of course, the embodiment only exemplifies the type of abutting portion 5, but does not limit it, and the person skilled in the art can change it according to the actual situation.

[0038] Further, in the embodiment of the utility model, the prompt assembly 6 is arranged on the shell 3, the switch piece 61 of the prompt assembly 6 is movably arranged in the accommodating cavity, and has an open position (as shown in Figure 6 and a closed position (as shown in Figure 8 For the arrangement position of the switch piece 61, when in the open position, part of the switch piece 61 extends into the accommodating cavity, when the switch piece 61 is pushed to the closed position by the pipeline joint 1, the switch piece 61 is just all pushed out of the accommodating cavity. If the specification of the accommodating cavity corresponds to the specification of the pipeline joint 1, then when the pipeline joint 1 is completely abutted with the accommodating cavity, the switch piece 61 is just all pushed out of the accommodating cavity. Thus, mechanical and electrical double detection is realized.

[0039] When the switch piece 61 is in the closed position, the prompt assembly 6 works. The prompt assembly 6 can be a buzzer or a signal lamp. Of course, for the specific prompting method, the embodiment does not exemplify it, and the person skilled in the art can change it according to the actual situation, which can play the same technical effect.

[0040] In the actual process, under the action of external force, the abutting portion 5 abuts with the locking buckle 2, for example, the technical personnel can directly hold and operate the mounting head 4, or a driving device can be arranged between the shell 3 and the mounting head 4, and the driving device drives the mounting head 4 to move. Then, the abutting portion 5 pushes the locking buckle 2 from the initial position to the sealing position, at this time, the pipeline joint 1 just pushes the switch piece 61 from the open position to the closed position, so that the prompt assembly 6 starts.

[0041] In this way, in the present embodiment, when the technician installs the locking buckle 2 on the pipe joint 1, since the locking buckle 2 has been pre-installed at the initial position of the pipe joint 1, the technician directly inserts the installation head 4 into the pipe joint 1, so that part of the pipe joint 1 enters the accommodating cavity, and then the abutting portion 5 directly abuts against the locking buckle 2. At this time, the technician can continue to press the installation head 4, so that the remaining part of the pipe joint 1 continues to enter the accommodating cavity, and at this time, the installation head 4 also pushes the locking buckle 2 to move to the sealing position. When the locking buckle 2 moves to the sealing position, the pipe joint 1 just contacts the inner wall of the accommodating cavity, so that the installation head 4 cannot continue to be pressed, and at the same time, the prompting assembly 6 works. Through the dual detection of mechanical and electrical, the technician can know that the locking buckle 2 has been installed in place.

[0042] Therefore, when the technician installs the locking buckle 2 using the installation detection device, the overall installation process is relatively simple, and the technician can be reminded by the prompting assembly 6 whether the locking buckle 2 is installed in place, so as to improve the work efficiency.

[0043] Further, in an alternative embodiment, as shown in Figure 1 The installation head 4 comprises an installation seat 41 and an outer shell 42.

[0044] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the installation seat 41 is connected with the shell 3, and the outer shell 42 is arranged at one end of the installation seat 41 away from the shell 3. The outer shell 42 has a semi-enclosing structure, and the outer shell 42 and the installation seat 41 enclose to form the accommodating cavity. The edge of the outer shell 42 away from the installation seat 41 is provided with the abutting portion 5.

[0045] In this way, since the outer shell 42 in the present embodiment is provided with the accommodating cavity which is just suitable for the pipe joint 1 to be inserted, the technician can be guided when pressing the installation head 4, so as to prevent the force direction of the technician from deviating from the pipe joint, thereby causing the locking buckle 2 to be unable to be correctly moved to the sealing position. At the same time, the outer shell 42 can also support the abutting portion 5, so as to prevent the abutting portion 5 from being damaged due to excessive force during installation.

[0046] Further, in an alternative embodiment, as shown in Figure 2 and Figure 3 In the direction away from the installation seat 41, the outer diameter of the outer shell 42 gradually decreases, and the inner diameter of the accommodating cavity remains unchanged. That is to say, the accommodating cavity has a cylindrical structure, and the inner diameter of the accommodating cavity is consistent with the outer diameter of the pipe joint 1.

[0047] In this way, the small head end of the mounting head 4 is arranged at the end of the battery pack, so as to facilitate the insertion of the mounting head 4 into the space inside the battery pack. Meanwhile, the large head end of the mounting head 4 is arranged close to the shell 3, so that the cross section of the side wall of the shell 42 is in a trapezoidal structure, thereby ensuring that the mounting head 4 has a large structural strength, and further meeting the installation requirements of the technicians.

[0048] Further, in an optional embodiment, the end edge of the shell 42 is in a C-shaped structure, and the abutting portion 5 coincides with the end of the shell 42.

[0049] In this way, in the present embodiment, the end edge of the shell 42 is arranged in a C-shaped structure, so that when the elbow of the pipeline joint 1 appears, the elbow part can directly extend out of the opening of the C-shaped structure, and the straight part of the pipeline joint 1 can normally enter the accommodating cavity of the mounting head 4, thereby improving the versatility of the installation detection device. Meanwhile, it is not necessary to disassemble the elbow part of the pipeline, and the working efficiency of the technicians can be further improved.

[0050] Further, in an optional embodiment, the mounting head 4 further comprises a through hole, which is arranged on the end face of the mounting seat 41 close to the shell 3. The switch piece 61 extends into the accommodating cavity from the through hole. That is, the part of the switch piece 61 extending into the accommodating cavity has a length equal to the movement stroke of the switch piece 61 from the open position to the closed position.

[0051] Further, in an optional embodiment, as shown in Figure 3 and Figure 6 The prompting assembly 6 comprises the switch piece 61, a prompting device 62, and a power supply 63.

[0052] Specifically, in the present embodiment, the switch piece 61 is a travel switch arranged in the shell 3. The movable contact of the travel switch is movably arranged in the accommodating cavity and has an open position and a closed position.

[0053] Further, the prompting device 62 is arranged on the shell 3, and the prompting device 62 is electrically connected with the travel switch. The power supply 63 forms a series circuit with the travel switch and the prompting device 62. When the movable contact is in the closed position, the power supply 63 supplies power to the prompting device 62, and the prompting device 62 is started;

[0054] Under the action of an external force, the abutting portion 5 abuts against the locking buckle 2, the abutting portion 5 pushes the locking buckle 2 from the initial position to the sealing position, and the pipeline joint 1 pushes the movable contact from the open position to the closed position.

[0055] Further, in an alternative embodiment, the prompting device 62 is a prompting light. The prompting light can be a common light bulb or an LED light.

[0056] Further, in an alternative embodiment, the prompting light is a prompting light strip, such as an LED light strip, which is laid on the surface of the housing 3.

[0057] Further, in an alternative embodiment, the mounting head 4 is detachably connected with the housing 3. The mounting head 4 is provided with a first annular groove near the edge in the circumferential direction, and the housing 3 is provided with a second annular groove near the edge in the circumferential direction. When the mounting head 4 is connected with the housing 3, the first annular groove and the second annular groove are combined to form an installation groove, which is suitable for assembling the prompting light strip.

[0058] Further, in an alternative embodiment, the housing 3 is in the shape of a handle. The end of the handle can be provided with a plurality of hand-gripping grooves along the edge in the circumferential direction. Of course, the handle surface can also be provided with anti-slip patterns or anti-slip skins.

[0059] In this way, in the embodiment of the present application, the housing 3 not only has the functions of decoration and accommodating electrical elements, but also can be conveniently pressed by the technical personnel by setting the housing 3 in the shape of a handle, thereby achieving the function of saving labor, and further preventing the situation that the locking buckle 2 cannot be installed in place due to frequent force exertion by the technical personnel.

[0060] Although the embodiments of the present application are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, various modifications and changes can be made by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit and scope of the present application, and such modifications and changes are also within the scope defined by the appended claims.
