Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of new energy batteries, specifically a surround-type cell support. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of new energy, many gasoline cars are gradually being replaced by batteries. Electric car travel can save costs and reduce exhaust emissions. However, in order to meet the requirements of long range, many manufacturers choose large-capacity batteries for electric cars. In order to better protect the batteries, the battery cells need to be well protected, so battery cell brackets are essential.

[0003] Nowadays, most battery cell brackets adopt a surround design to protect the battery cell from all angles. The battery cell is placed in the positioning groove of the lower frame, and then the upper frame is connected to the lower frame with bolts to complete the installation and fixation of the battery cell. However, the battery cell is placed in the positioning groove, and the movement of the car can cause the battery cell to slide, which will affect the normal operation of the battery cell. Utility Model Content

[0004] Therefore, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an enclosed cell support to solve the technical problem.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a surround-type battery cell support, comprising a first frame and a second frame, wherein the first frame is connected to the second frame by threads, characterized in that: a limiting mechanism is provided at the bottom of the interior of the second frame, the limiting mechanism comprising a positioning frame, wherein a rotating frame is provided inside the positioning frame, wherein a cavity is provided inside the rotating frame, wherein a clamping plate is rotatably connected inside the cavity via a rotating shaft, wherein a sliding plate is slidably connected to the end of the clamping plate, and a hinge seat is fixed to the inner wall of the positioning frame, wherein the hinge seat is rotatably connected to the sliding plate.

[0006] The present invention is further configured such that the limiting mechanism also includes a positioning element for limiting and fixing the rotating frame.

[0007] The present invention is further configured such that the positioning member includes a sliding groove located on the inner wall of the positioning frame, a sliding block is slidably connected inside the sliding groove, a rack plate is fixed on one side of the sliding block, and teeth that mesh with the rack plate are provided at the top of one side of the rotating frame.

[0008] The present invention is further configured such that the positioning component includes a reset spring located inside the sliding groove, the reset spring being connected to the sliding block, and the top of the sliding block being provided with a pressing post that is slidably connected to the positioning frame.

[0009] The present invention is further configured such that the number of clamping plates is four, and the four clamping plates are equidistantly distributed inside the rotating frame.

[0010] The present invention is further configured such that limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the sliding groove, and limiting blocks that are slidably connected to the limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the sliding block.

[0011] In summary, the present invention has the following main advantages:

[0012] 1. This utility model uses a pressing column to press down, which drives the sliding block to move downward, causing the rack plate to disengage from the teeth. At the same time, the rotating frame rotates. As the rotating frame rotates, the sliding plate gradually rotates and enters the interior of the clamping plate under the action of the hinge seat and the rotating cavity and clamping plate, causing the clamping plate to rotate counterclockwise. The ends of the four sets of clamping plates come closer to each other, which can better clamp the battery cell. After releasing the pressing column, under the action of the return spring, the rack plate moves upward and meshes with the teeth, which can better limit and fix the rotating frame, thereby limiting and fixing the clamping plate, completing the clamping and fixing of the battery cell, preventing it from sliding inside the frame, and avoiding affecting the normal driving of the car.

[0018] The technical solutions of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0019] The embodiments of this utility model will be described below based on its overall structure.

[0020] A type of enclosed cell support, such as Figure 1-3As shown, it includes a first frame 1 and a second frame 2. The first frame 1 is connected to the second frame 2 by threads. The first frame 1 and the second frame 2 are openable and can be removed from the top of the second frame 2. A limiting mechanism 3 is provided at the bottom of the interior of the second frame 2. The limiting mechanism 3 includes a positioning frame 301. A rotating frame 302 is provided inside the positioning frame 301. A cavity 3010 is provided inside the rotating frame 302. A clamping plate 3011 is rotatably connected inside the cavity 3010 through a rotating shaft. A sliding plate 3012 is slidably connected to the end of the clamping plate 3011. A hinge seat 303 is fixed to the inner wall of the positioning frame 301. The hinge seat 303 is rotatably connected to the sliding plate 3012. There are four clamping plates 3011. The four clamping plates 3011 are equidistantly distributed inside the rotating frame 302 to better support the battery cell.

[0021] The rotating frame 302 is rotated. Under the action of the rotational connection between the cavity 3010 and the clamping plate 3011, the sliding plate 3012 rotates and slides into the interior of the clamping plate 3011. At this time, the clamping plate 3011 rotates counterclockwise, and the ends of the four sets of clamping plates 3011 approach each other to achieve the purpose of clamping the battery cell. Then, the first frame 1 is placed on top of the second frame 2 and aligned. Then, bolts are used to connect and fix the first frame 1 and the second frame 2 to complete the protection of the battery cell. At the same time, the first frame 1 can limit the vertical movement of the battery cell to prevent it from shaking.

[0022] Please see Figure 3 The limiting mechanism 3 also includes a positioning element for limiting and fixing the rotating frame 302. The positioning element includes a sliding groove 304 located on the inner wall of the positioning frame 301. A sliding block 306 is slidably connected inside the sliding groove 304. A rack plate 308 is fixed on one side of the sliding block 306. A tooth 309 that meshes with the rack plate 308 is provided at the top of one side of the rotating frame 302.

[0023] It is understandable that when the rack plate 308 moves downward and disengages from the teeth 309, the rotating frame 302 rotates. When the rack plate 308 moves upward, it meshes with the teeth 309, thus limiting the rotation of the rotating frame 302 and preventing it from rotating.

[0024] Please see Figure 3 The positioning component also includes a reset spring 305 located inside the sliding groove 304. The reset spring 305 is connected to the sliding block 306. The reset spring 305 facilitates the quick reset of the sliding block 306. The top of the sliding block 306 is provided with a pressing post 307 that is slidably connected to the positioning frame 301. Limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the sliding groove 304, and limiting blocks that are slidably connected to the limiting grooves are provided on both sides of the sliding block 306.

[0025] It should be noted that the pressing post 307 facilitates the sliding block 306 to slide. Together with the limiting groove and the limiting block, the sliding block 306 slides more stably, preventing rotation. The reset spring 305 is compressed when the sliding block 306 moves downward. When no force is applied to the pressing post, the reset spring 305 can drive the sliding block 306 to quickly reset, so that the rack plate 308 and the teeth 309 mesh, completing the limiting and fixing of the rotating frame. At the same time, it prevents the rack plate 308 from disengaging from the teeth 309 when there is no force.
