Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of electrode copper strip technology, specifically relating to a recyclable electrode copper strip for new energy vehicles. Background Technology
[0002] Copper tabs are a type of conductive material used in batteries, primarily for connecting the positive and negative terminals of the battery to external circuits. Copper tabs play a crucial role in battery manufacturing, and their quality and performance directly affect the battery's conductivity and safety.
[0003] In existing new energy vehicle electrode copper strips, the electrodes are usually welded to the battery pack by workers during installation. However, welding generates a large amount of toxic gases, which can harm the health of workers. Furthermore, welding makes it inconvenient to recycle the electrodes later and may damage them. Therefore, we propose a recyclable electrode copper strip for new energy vehicles. Utility Model Content
[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a recyclable copper strip for new energy vehicle electrodes. This addresses the current technical problems of welding copper strips to battery packs, which typically involves workers soldering the electrodes to the battery pack. However, this welding process generates large amounts of toxic gases, posing a health hazard to workers. Furthermore, welding makes subsequent electrode recycling inconvenient and may damage the electrodes. The invention aims to provide a more convenient installation method, eliminating the need for welding, thus avoiding the generation of toxic gases and effectively protecting worker safety. It also facilitates easier disassembly of the electrode strip without damaging the electrodes.
[0005] To address the aforementioned technical problems, this utility model provides a recyclable copper strip for new energy vehicles, comprising a battery pack body: a mounting base is fixed to the top of the battery pack body, a mounting groove is formed at the top of the mounting base, a pressure block is installed inside the mounting groove, threaded holes are formed on the top of the pressure block and the inner sidewall of the mounting groove, a threaded rod is provided inside the threaded hole, a knob is installed at the top of the threaded rod extending above the pressure block, a tab body is installed between the pressure block and the inner bottom surface of the mounting groove, and a through hole is formed on the outer sidewall of the tab body corresponding to the threaded hole.
[0006] Furthermore, the battery pack body is adapted to the mounting base, and mounting plates are fixed on both the left and right sides of the battery pack body. The mounting plates are made of polyethylene material.
[0007] Furthermore, a contact plate is installed inside the battery pack body at a corresponding mounting base, and both the contact plate and the mounting base are made of copper.
[0008] Furthermore, the threaded rod is adapted to the threaded hole, and the threaded rod is threadedly connected to the threaded hole.
[0009] Furthermore, the through hole is adapted to the threaded rod.
[0010] Furthermore, sliders are symmetrically fixed on the outer side wall of the pressure block, and a sliding groove is provided on the inner side wall of the mounting groove corresponding to the slider, and the slider is slidably connected to the sliding groove.
[0011] Furthermore, an insulating pad made of rubber is fitted onto the outer wall of the knob.
[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are:
[0013] 1. Through the design of the mounting base, pressure block, threaded hole, threaded rod, and knob, when workers need to install a recyclable copper strip for new energy vehicles, they can first turn the knob counterclockwise to tighten the threaded rod until the end of the threaded rod is inside the pressure block. At this point, the pressure block can be lifted and the electrode body can be sent between the pressure block and the mounting groove. Turning the threaded rod clockwise allows it to pass through the through hole. After tightening the threaded rod, the pressure block can fix the electrode body, completing the installation of the electrode body. This makes it more convenient for workers to install a recyclable copper strip for new energy vehicles, and it eliminates the need for welding for fixing, avoiding the generation of toxic gases and effectively protecting the personal safety of workers.
[0014] 2. Through the design of the mounting groove, threaded rod, knob, and through hole, when recycling a type of recyclable copper strip for new energy vehicle electrodes, the worker can turn the knob to allow the threaded rod to come out from the inside of the threaded hole. This prevents the pressure block from fixing the electrode body, and the threaded rod will not affect the displacement of the through hole. At this time, the worker can easily remove the electrode body, which is convenient and will not damage the electrode.

Obviously, the described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this utility model. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0023] Example 1:
[0024] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, a recyclable copper strip for new energy vehicle electrodes includes a battery pack body 1. A mounting base 2 is fixed to the top of the battery pack body 1. A mounting groove 201 is formed at the top of the mounting base 2. The interior of the mounting groove 201 is used to install a pressure block 202 and fix the electrode body 206. The pressure block 202 is installed inside the mounting groove 201. Threaded holes 203 are formed on both the top of the pressure block 202 and the inner wall of the mounting groove 201. A threaded rod 204 is provided inside the threaded hole 203. The threaded rod 204 can rotate inside the threaded hole 203 so that the pressure block 202 can be fixed. The top of the threaded rod 204 extends to the top of the pressure block 202 and a knob 205 is installed. It is more convenient to rotate the threaded rod 204 by using the knob 205. The electrode body 206 is installed between the pressure block 202 and the inner bottom surface of the mounting groove 201. A through hole 207 is opened on the outer wall of the electrode body 206 corresponding to the threaded hole 203. The threaded rod 204 can pass through the through hole 207.
[0025] Example 2:
[0026] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the battery pack body 1 is adapted to the mounting base 2. Mounting plates 101 are fixed on both the left and right sides of the battery pack body 1. The mounting plates 101 are made of polyethylene material. The mounting plates 101 made of polyethylene material have good isolation and chemical stability, which can help to install the battery packs.
[0027] Inside the battery pack body 1, a contact plate 102 is installed at the corresponding mounting base 2. Both the contact plate 102 and the mounting base 2 are made of copper. The copper contact plate 102 and the mounting base 2 have good conductivity.
[0028] The threaded rod 204 is adapted to the threaded hole 203 and is threadedly connected to the threaded hole 203. Through the threaded connection between the threaded rod 204 and the threaded hole 203, the threaded rod 204 can help fix the pressure block 202 when it rotates into the bottom of the threaded hole 203, thereby fixing the electrode body 206.
[0029] The through hole 207 is adapted to the threaded rod 204. The threaded rod 204 can pass through the through hole 207, which can better help fix the tab body 206.
[0030] A slider 208 is symmetrically fixed on the outer side wall of the pressure block 202. A groove 209 is provided on the inner side wall of the mounting groove 201 at the corresponding position of the slider 208. The slider 208 and the groove 209 are slidably connected. The sliding connection between the slider 208 and the groove 209 makes the pressure block 202 more stable when rising or falling.
[0031] An insulating pad 210 is fitted on the outer wall of the knob 205. The insulating pad 210 is made of rubber. The insulating pad 210 made of rubber has good insulation properties, making it safer and more convenient for workers to rotate the knob 205.
[0032] In summary, the design of the mounting base, mounting groove, pressure block, threaded hole, threaded rod, knob, and through hole makes it more convenient for workers to install the copper strip of the electrode tab. It eliminates the need for welding for fixing, avoids the generation of toxic gases, and effectively protects the personal safety of workers. Furthermore, it is also more convenient to disassemble the copper strip of the electrode tab in the future without damaging the electrode tab.
