[0031] The following will describe in detail the implementation of this application with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments, so that the implementation process of how this application uses technical means to solve technical problems and achieve technical effects can be fully understood and implemented accordingly.

[0032] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3As shown, this embodiment provides a small-batch rapid experimental liquid injection machine, including a container 1 and a mounting bracket 2. The container 1 includes a stainless steel cavity 3, on which a cover plate 4 is detachably installed. A pressure gauge 5 for monitoring the internal air pressure of the stainless steel cavity 3 is fixedly installed on the cover plate 4. A pressure regulating component for adjusting the internal air pressure of the stainless steel cavity 3 is provided on the cover plate 4. The mounting bracket 2 includes a battery positioning base plate 21, on which holes similar in shape to those of a battery 20 are opened. Several pull rods 18 are fixedly installed on the top of the battery positioning base plate 21. A movable pressure plate 17 with a pressure band hole is slidably sleeved on the pull rod 18. A threaded device for pressing the movable pressure plate 17 with the pressure band hole is rotatably installed on the pull rod 18 to press the movable pressure plate 17 onto the battery 20. The top locking nut 16 and the movable pressure plate 17 with the pressure hole are fixedly installed with electrolyte cups 14 corresponding to the batteries 20. The bottom of the electrolyte cup 14 is connected to a perforated boss 1401. The lower end of the perforated boss 1401 can be connected to the injection hole 2001 on the top of the battery 20. In order to improve the sealing between the perforated boss 1401 and the injection hole 2001, a flexible injection nozzle 19 is fixedly sleeved on the bottom of the perforated boss 1401. When adding electrolyte into the battery 20, the mounting bracket 2 with the battery 20 is placed inside the stainless steel cavity 3. By controlling the air pressure inside the stainless steel cavity 3, the electrolyte in the electrolyte cup 14 is added into the battery 20.

[0033] In this embodiment, the pressure regulating component includes a three-way valve 8, which is fixedly installed on the cover plate 4. The lower end of the three-way valve 8 is connected to the interior of the stainless steel cavity 3. A first solenoid valve 6 is installed at one of the upper ports of the three-way valve 8, and a second solenoid valve 9 is installed at the other upper port of the three-way valve 8. A vacuum connecting pipe 7 is connected to the connecting port of the first solenoid valve 6. The end of the vacuum connecting pipe 7 away from the first solenoid valve 6 is connected to the air inlet of the vacuum pump. A nitrogen connecting pipe 11 is connected to the connecting port of the second solenoid valve 9. The end of the nitrogen connecting pipe 11 away from the second solenoid valve 9 is connected to the air outlet of the nitrogen tank.

[0034] By adopting the above technical solution, during use, the battery 20 is placed in the hole of the battery positioning base plate 21, and then the locking nut 16 is tightened to press the movable pressure plate 17 of the pressure band hole onto the top of the battery 20. At this time, the flexible injection nozzle 19 is sealed and inserted into the injection hole 2001. Then, the mounting bracket 2 is placed inside the stainless steel cavity 3, and then a certain amount of electrolyte is added into the electrolyte cup 14. Then, the cover plate 4 is placed on the stainless steel cavity 3 to make the inside of the stainless steel cavity 3 sealed. Then, the first solenoid valve 6 is opened, and the second solenoid valve 9 is closed. In this state, the inside of the stainless steel cavity 3 is evacuated to a negative pressure state. As the negative pressure inside the stainless steel cavity 3 gradually increases, the air inside the battery 20 is also evacuated. Then, the first solenoid valve 6 is closed and the second solenoid valve 9 is opened, and nitrogen is injected into the inside of the stainless steel cavity 3. At this time, the air pressure inside the battery 20 is lower than the air pressure inside the stainless steel cavity 3, so that the electrolyte in the electrolyte cup 14 is forced into the battery 20. Through the above-mentioned alternating operation of evacuation and nitrogen filling, the electrolyte in the electrolyte cup 14 can be stably and quickly added into the battery 20.

[0035] In this embodiment, the opening and closing of the first solenoid valve 6 and the second solenoid valve 9 are both controlled by a time relay.

[0036] In this embodiment, in order to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the cover plate 4, a locking ring 13 for fixing the cover plate 4 to the top of the stainless steel cavity 3 is rotatably connected to the upper outer wall of the stainless steel cavity 3.

[0037] In this embodiment, in order to improve the sealing performance of the stainless steel cavity 3, an annular groove is provided on the top of the stainless steel cavity 3, and a sealing ring 22 is installed in the annular groove.

[0038] In this embodiment, in order to ensure safety during electrolyte filling, a safety valve 10 is installed on the cover plate 4. The lower end of the safety valve 10 is connected to the interior of the stainless steel cavity 3. A silencer valve 12 is fixedly installed on the cover plate 4. The lower end of the silencer valve 12 is connected to the interior of the stainless steel cavity 3.

[0039] In this embodiment, a lifting lug 15 is fixedly connected to the top of the pull rod 18 to facilitate lifting and carrying the mounting bracket 2.

[0040] In this embodiment, the cover plate 4 is a transparent acrylic plate to facilitate observation of the internal state of the stainless steel cavity 3.

However, as previously stated, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. It can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be altered within the scope of the inventive concept described herein through the foregoing teachings or techniques or knowledge in related fields.
