Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to battery assembly technology, and more particularly to a trench structure for battery pack installation and its assembly equipment. Background Technology
[0002] During the installation of battery packs into the trench, difficulties in demolding are often encountered. This is mainly due to the large size and weight of the battery pack, and the slight deviations in its shape and size from the trench, which cause friction and resistance between the battery pack and the trench during demolding. This friction and resistance not only increases the difficulty of demolding but may also lead to defects such as scratches and pulls on the surface of the battery pack, affecting its appearance and quality.
[0003] In existing technology, the width at both ends of the groove is the same as the width in the middle. In actual production, due to excessive clamping force, the two ends are prone to pulling, surface scratches, and high product defect rate when demolding. Utility Model Content
[0004] To address the aforementioned shortcomings, the purpose of this invention is to propose a groove structure for battery pack installation and its assembly equipment, which solves the problems of mold pulling, surface scratches, and high product defect rates that easily occur when the two ends are demolded.

[0009] In the horizontal direction, the distance D1 between any point between the first arc structure and the second arc structure is greater than the width D2 of the groove body; the first arc structure, the first straight structure and the second arc structure constitute a flared space.
[0010] Furthermore, it also includes a guide structure, which is disposed in the middle of the trench body.
[0011] Furthermore, the height h1 of the first arc structure and the second arc structure is always lower than the height H1 of the groove body, the projections of the first arc structure and the second arc structure in the horizontal direction are completely overlapping, and the first arc structure and the second arc structure form a retrieval space.
[0012] Furthermore, it also includes several support columns, one of which is located in the center of the first arc structure, and another of which is located in the center of the second arc structure. The two support columns are arranged opposite each other and form a support space.
[0013] Furthermore, the support column is made of rubber.
[0014] Furthermore, the groove body, the first arc structure, the second arc structure, and the first straight structure all have rounded corners on their surfaces.

[0031] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1-6 The technical solution of this utility model will be further illustrated through specific implementation methods.
[0032] In a preferred embodiment of this application, a trench structure 1 for mounting a battery pack includes a trench body 11 and two flared portions 2, which are respectively distributed at the left and right ends of the trench body 11.
[0033] The flared portion 2 includes a first arc structure 21, a second arc structure 22, and a first straight structure 23; the trench body 11 is a trench wall structure, including a first trench wall 111 and a second trench wall 112; one end of the first arc structure 21 is connected to the first trench wall 111 on one side of the trench body 11, the other end of the first arc structure 21 is connected to one end of the first straight structure 23, the other end of the first straight structure 23 is connected to one end of the second arc structure 22, and the other end of the second arc structure 22 is connected to the second trench wall 112 on the same side of the trench body;
[0034] In the horizontal direction, the distance D1 between any point between the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 is greater than the width D2 of the groove body 11; the first arc structure 21, the first straight structure 23 and the second arc structure 22 constitute a flared space.
[0035] Specifically, flared portions 2 are provided on the left and right sides of the trench body 11. Each flared portion 2 includes a first arc structure 21, a second arc structure 22, and a first straight structure 23. The first trench wall 111, the first arc structure 21, the first straight structure 23, the second arc structure 22, and the second trench wall 112 are connected sequentially. Since in the horizontal direction, as... Figure 3 As shown, the distance D1 between any point between the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 is greater than the width D2 of the trench body 11. Therefore, the first arc structure 21, the first straight structure 23, and the second arc structure 22 form a flared space on both sides of the trench body 11. The width of the flared space is greater than the width of the trench body 11, which can prevent the product from being damaged during demolding. This structure makes it easier for the product to be demolded, with no surface damage, and no damage during battery pack assembly, achieving a win-win situation of production efficiency and battery assembly yield, and effectively reducing production costs.
[0036] In an optional embodiment, a guide structure 12 is further included, which is disposed in the middle of the trench body 11.
[0037] Specifically, by providing the guide structure 12 in the middle of the trench body 11, the correct installation of the battery pack can be achieved, and the battery pack installation can be prevented from being misaligned.
[0038] In an optional embodiment, the height h1 of the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 is always lower than the height H1 of the groove body 11, the projections of the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 in the horizontal direction are completely overlapping, and the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 form a retrieval space.
[0039] Specifically, in the vertical direction, the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 are arranged in parallel; for example... Figure 4 As shown, the height h1 of the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 is always lower than the height H1 of the groove body 11. That is, the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22 are recessed downward to form a retrieval space. The retrieval space facilitates the installation of the battery pack and the demolding of the product.
[0040] In an optional embodiment, a plurality of support columns 24 are further included. One support column 24 is disposed in the center of the first arc structure 21, and another support column 24 is disposed in the center of the second arc structure 22. Two support columns 24 are disposed opposite each other and form a support space.
[0041] Specifically, by setting support columns 24 directly opposite each other in the middle of the first arc structure 21 and the second arc structure 22, the side of the battery pack can be prevented from shifting during battery pack installation. Furthermore, the small contact area between the support column 24 and the battery pack can prevent damage to the battery pack.
[0042] In an alternative embodiment, the support column 24 is made of rubber.
[0043] Specifically, the support column 24 is made of rubber, which is a flexible material. It can both support the battery pack and act as a buffer to slow down the installation speed of the battery pack and prevent damage caused by excessively fast installation.
[0044] In an optional embodiment, the groove body 11, the first arc structure 21, the second arc structure 22 and the first straight structure 23 all have rounded corners on their surfaces.
[0045] Specifically, by using rounded corners on the surfaces of the trench body 11, the first arc structure 21, the second arc structure 22, and the first straight structure 23, the risk of the battery pack being scratched during installation can be reduced, thereby improving the stability and safety of the battery pack installation.
[0046] In an optional embodiment, the assembly equipment of this utility model includes a base 31 and a main body 32. The bottom of the main body 32 is installed at the top center of the base 31. The main body 32 is provided with a plurality of groove structures 1 for mounting the battery pack, and the plurality of groove structures 1 are evenly distributed longitudinally on the main body 32.
[0047] Specifically, multiple trench structures 1 can simultaneously install multiple battery packs, improving production efficiency; and the number of battery packs installed can be flexibly adjusted according to the needs of the trench structures 1.
[0048] In an optional embodiment, the assembly equipment further includes a second groove structure 13, which is horizontally disposed on the main body 32. The length L2 of the second groove structure 13 is shorter than the length L1 of the groove structure 1. Both ends of the second groove structure 13 are provided with second flared portions 131. In the horizontal direction, the width D3 of the second flared portion 131 is always greater than the width D4 of the second groove structure 13. The height h2 of the second flared portion 131 is always lower than the height H2 of the second groove main body.
[0049] Specifically, depending on the needs, it can be decided whether to install a battery pack in the second trench structure 13, and multiple products of different specifications can be assembled and produced.
[0050] In an optional embodiment, the assembly device further includes a suspension component 14, which is disposed at the top center of the main body 32. The suspension component 14 has a through hole 141 in the middle region and is used to suspend the assembly device.
[0051] Specifically, a suspension component 14 is provided on the top of the assembly equipment, which can be suspended through the through hole 141 for easy transportation.
[0052] In an optional embodiment, a buffer layer 4 is provided at the bottom of the trench structure 1. The buffer layer 4 is rectangular and horizontally disposed at the bottom of the trench structure 1.
[0053] Specifically, the buffer layer 4 can slow down the speed at which the battery pack is installed to the bottom of the trench structure 1, and reduce the impact generated during battery pack installation, thereby improving the stability of the product.
[0054] The embodiments of this utility model have been described in detail above. Specific examples have been used to illustrate the principles and implementation methods of this utility model. The description of the above embodiments is only for the purpose of helping to understand the method and core ideas of this utility model. At the same time, for those skilled in the art, there will be changes in the specific implementation methods and application scope based on the ideas of this utility model. Therefore, the content of this specification should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.
