Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrolyte filling technology, and in particular to an electrolyte injection device. Background Technology

[0002] Electrolyte refers to compounds or solutes that can dissociate into ions in a solution. When these compounds dissolve in a solvent, their molecules will separate into charged ions to form an electrolyte solution. Electrolyte is an important component of batteries such as lithium-ion batteries, sodium-ion batteries, and lead-acid batteries, and directly affects the performance and lifespan of the battery.

[0003] In the lithium battery production process, electrolyte needs to be added into the lithium battery. Traditional battery production relies on manual addition of electrolyte. During the addition process, the addition tube is inserted into the filling port of the lithium battery, and then the electrolyte is injected into the lithium battery. Since it is necessary to maintain the pressure balance inside the lithium battery during this process, the addition operation is relatively troublesome and has certain shortcomings. To address this, we propose an electrolyte injection device to assist in adding electrolyte into the lithium battery. Summary of the Invention

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0006] An electrolyte injection device includes a lithium battery filling port and a filling tube mechanism. A first sealing ring is fixedly sleeved on the lithium battery filling port. The filling tube mechanism passes through the lithium battery filling port and injects electrolyte into the lithium battery. A locking mechanism is installed on the filling tube mechanism, and the filling tube mechanism is installed on the lithium battery filling port through the locking mechanism. A connecting tube is installed on the side of the filling tube mechanism, and a vacuum pump is installed on the connecting tube.

[0007] Preferably, the filling tube mechanism includes a fixed tube inserted into the lithium battery filling port, a second sealing ring fixedly sleeved on the fixed tube, a sealing sleeve fixedly inserted through the top of the fixed tube, a filling tube installed inside the sealing sleeve, the filling tube penetrating the fixed tube, and a connector fixedly attached to the top of the filling tube.

[0008] Preferably, the locking mechanism is fixed to the fixed tube, and the connecting tube is installed on the side of the fixed tube.

[0009] Preferably, the locking mechanism includes a first threaded sleeve fixedly fitted onto a fixed tube, a second threaded sleeve being threadedly connected to the first threaded sleeve, a movable plate being rotatably connected to the second threaded sleeve, a fixed block being fixedly fixed to the bottom of the movable plate, a locking hook being rotatably connected to the fixed block, and a knob being fixedly fitted onto the second threaded sleeve.

[0010] Preferably, the locking hook locks the first sealing ring onto the second sealing ring, and the number of fixing blocks is several groups, which are located at the bottom of the movable plate and are symmetrically distributed.

[0011] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0012] This invention features a filling tube mechanism that works in conjunction with a connecting tube and a vacuum pump. The vacuum pump extracts air from the lithium battery, allowing electrolyte to be added into the battery through the connector and filling tube. The device has a simple structure and improves safety during electrolyte filling. A locking mechanism secures the filling tube mechanism to the lithium battery filling port, ensuring a tight connection and further enhancing safety during the filling process.

Detailed Implementation

[0017] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments.

[0018] Reference Figure 1-3An electrolyte injection device includes a lithium battery filling port 1 and a filling tube mechanism 3. A first sealing ring 2 is fixedly sleeved on the lithium battery filling port 1. The filling tube mechanism 3 penetrates the lithium battery filling port 1 and injects electrolyte into the lithium battery. A locking mechanism 4 is installed on the filling tube mechanism 3. The filling tube mechanism 3 is installed on the lithium battery filling port 1 through the locking mechanism 4. The filling tube mechanism 3 includes a fixed tube 31 inserted into the lithium battery filling port 1. A second sealing ring 32 is fixedly sleeved on the fixed tube 31. A sealing sleeve 33 is fixedly inserted through the top of the fixed tube 31. A filling tube 34 is installed inside the sealing sleeve 33. The filling tube 34 penetrates the fixed tube 31. A connector 35 is fixedly installed at the top of the filling tube 34. The locking mechanism 4 is fixed to the fixed tube 31. A connector 5 is installed on the side of the fixed tube 31. The locking mechanism 4 includes a first threaded sleeve 41 fixedly sleeved on the fixed tube 31. The first threaded sleeve 41 is connected by a threaded... A second threaded sleeve 42 is connected, and a movable plate 43 is rotatably connected to the second threaded sleeve 42. A fixing block 45 is fixed to the bottom of the movable plate 43, and a locking hook 46 is rotatably connected to the fixing block 45. A knob 44 is fixedly sleeved on the second threaded sleeve 42. The locking hook 46 locks the first sealing ring 2 onto the second sealing ring 32.

At the same time, the locking mechanism is used to fix the filling tube mechanism to the lithium battery filling port, and the device is tightly connected, further improving the safety of the filling process.

[0019] In use, first insert the filling tube mechanism 3 into the lithium battery filling port 1, then pull the locking hook 46 to insert it into the bottom of the first sealing ring 2. Then rotate the knob 44, which drives the second threaded sleeve 42 to rotate. The second threaded sleeve 42 drives the movable plate 43 to move through the thread transmission with the first threaded sleeve 41. The movable plate 43 moves upward through the fixed block 45 and the locking hook 46. The movement of the locking hook 46 makes the first sealing ring 2 and the second sealing ring 32 fit together, improving the stability of the device installation. Then connect the connector 35 to the electrolyte supply device and start the vacuum pump 6. The vacuum pump 6 extracts the air from the lithium battery through the connecting tube 5 and the fixed tube 31.
