Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of battery testing technology, specifically relating to an energy-saving automatic testing device for needle-bed cylindrical batteries. Background Technology
[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are a type of rechargeable battery that primarily relies on the movement of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes to function. During charging and discharging, Li+ ions repeatedly insert and extract between the two electrodes: during charging, Li+ ions extract from the positive electrode, pass through the electrolyte, and insert into the negative electrode, leaving the negative electrode in a lithium-rich state; the opposite occurs during discharging. Lithium-ion batteries come in various shapes, with cylindrical lithium-ion batteries being the most common. Testing cylindrical lithium-ion batteries requires multiple processes, the most common of which is the bed-of-needle cylindrical battery automatic testing machine, which performs charging testing operations and management for cylindrical batteries.
[0003] When testing cylindrical batteries for charging, the existing needle bed type automatic battery testing machine can only test each battery individually. This requires the operator to remove the collected cylindrical batteries one by one and place them into the machine before testing. This process increases the number of reciprocating strokes of the cylinders inside the needle bed type automatic battery testing machine, reducing the overall testing efficiency.

[0005] To address the problems mentioned in the background section, the present invention adopts the following technical solution.
[0006] An energy-saving automatic testing device for cylindrical batteries (bed-of-nails type) includes a testing machine body, an extension table, and a control panel. The testing machine body has multiple feeding ports on its side for feeding batteries to be tested. An extension table is installed at the side opening of each feeding port. The control panel is installed on the side surface of the testing machine body. A storage mechanism is provided inside the testing machine body.

[0023] To make the above-mentioned objectives, features and advantages of this utility model more apparent and understandable, the specific embodiments of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0024] Many specific details are set forth in the following description in order to provide a full understanding of the present invention. However, the present invention may also be implemented in other ways different from those described herein. Those skilled in the art can make similar extensions without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Therefore, the present invention is not limited to the specific embodiments disclosed below.
[0025] Secondly, the term "an embodiment" or "embodiment" as used herein refers to a specific feature, structure, or characteristic that may be included in at least one implementation of the present invention. The phrase "in one embodiment" appearing in different places in this specification does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment, nor is it a single or selective embodiment that excludes other embodiments. The present invention provides the following embodiments.
[0026] Depend on Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 3As shown, it is a schematic diagram of the automatic detection device for needle-bed cylindrical batteries in this embodiment, including a detection machine body 1, an extension stage 2 and a control panel 3. The detection machine body 1 has multiple feeding ports for feeding batteries into the test on its side. An extension stage 2 is installed at the side opening of the feeding port. The control panel 3 is installed on the side surface of the detection machine body 1. A storage mechanism 4 is provided inside the detection machine body 1. Clamping mechanisms 5 are installed at equal intervals inside the detection machine body 1.
[0027] In use, the cylindrical batteries to be tested are arranged and placed inside the storage mechanism 4, and then directly input into the main body 1 of the testing machine through the extension stage 2. At this time, the operation of the clamping mechanism 5 makes the internal parts of the clamping mechanism 5 fit with the top electrode of the battery, which facilitates the subsequent stable testing of the battery by the main body 1 of the testing machine. This changes the traditional method of testing each battery individually, greatly improves the overall working efficiency of the equipment, and saves overall energy.
[0028] From the appendix Figure 3 As shown, it is a structural schematic diagram of the clamping mechanism 5 in this embodiment. The clamping mechanism 5 includes a cylinder body 51, a moving plate 52 and a clamp 53. The cylinder body 51 is symmetrically installed on the inner wall side of the detection machine body 1. The moving plate 52 is installed on the output end of the cylinder body 51. The clamp 53 is installed on the side of the moving plate 52 and is in contact with the battery in the storage mechanism 4.
[0029] During use, after the battery pack moves into the main body 1 of the testing machine under the action of the storage mechanism 4, the output end of the cylinder body 51 drives the moving plate 52 to move up and down synchronously through the start of the cylinder body 51, thereby controlling the position of the clamp 53, so that the clamp 53 moves up and down vertically until the clamp 53 is in contact with the electrode of the battery pack, thus fixing the position of the battery pack, which is convenient for the internal circuit of the testing machine body 1 to test the battery.
[0030] From the appendix Figure 4 As shown, it is a structural schematic diagram of the clamping mechanism 5 in this embodiment. The clamping mechanism 5 also includes a guide rod 54, a side bracket 55 and a calibration edge plate 56. The guide rod 54 is symmetrically installed inside the main body 1 of the testing machine. The guide rod 54 passes through the moving plate 52 and is slidably connected to the moving plate 52. The side bracket 55 is installed on the side wall of the main body 1 of the testing machine. The calibration edge plate 56 is installed on the side of the bottom edge of the clamp 53 near the storage mechanism 4.
[0031] When the movable plate 52 slides during use, the side bracket 55 blocks and limits the edge of the movable plate 52, and with the cooperation of the guide rod 54, the auxiliary clamp 53 maintains a vertical lifting state, thereby assisting the clamp 53 to move stably.
[0032] From the appendix Figure 5As shown, it is a structural schematic diagram of the storage mechanism 4 in this embodiment. The storage mechanism 4 includes a storage component 41, a mating base plate 42 and a side guide rail 43. The mating base plate 42 is installed inside the main body 1 of the testing machine. The end of the mating base plate 42 is connected to the extension table 2. The side guide rails 43 are symmetrically installed on the upper surface of the mating base plate 42. There are two sets of side guide rails 43. The storage component 41 is slidably installed on the surface of the mating base plate 42.
[0033] In use, the batteries to be tested are placed inside the storage assembly 41 and arranged at equal intervals. Then, the entire storage assembly 41 is pushed onto the surface of the mating base plate 42 via the extension stage 2. During the movement of the mating base plate 42, the side guide rail 43 helps the storage assembly 41 to move straight, preventing the storage assembly 41 from shifting or misaligning. When the storage assembly 41 moves to the target position, the clamp 53 descends and comes into contact with the battery electrodes inside the storage assembly 41, completing the initial positioning of the device. At this time, the calibration edge plate 56 will come into contact with the top of the side guide rail 43, limiting the maximum movement distance of the clamp 53 to ensure the stability and safety of the batteries inside the storage assembly 41.
[0034] From the appendix Figure 6 As shown, it is a structural schematic diagram of the storage component 41 in this embodiment. The storage component 41 also includes a storage plate 411, a mating ring plate 412 and a side support 413. The storage plate 411 is disposed on the surface of the mating base plate 42 and stores multiple sets of arranged cylindrical batteries. The mating ring plate 412 is installed at the top edge of the storage plate 411, and the side support 413 is symmetrically installed at the bottom end of the mating ring plate 412.
[0035] During use, the batteries are placed inside the storage plate 411 and arranged in a way that facilitates simultaneous testing of multiple battery groups by the main body 1 of the testing machine, thus speeding up the overall work efficiency. After the battery testing is completed, the side support 413 and the cooperating ring plate 412 work together to quickly remove the tested batteries. The storage plate 411 moves synchronously with the batteries, which facilitates the subsequent transfer and packaging of the arranged batteries, thus improving the work efficiency of subsequent processes.
[0036] The above description, in conjunction with specific embodiments, provides a further detailed explanation of the present utility model. It should not be construed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. For those skilled in the art, several simple deductions or substitutions can be made without departing from the concept of the present utility model, and all such deductions or substitutions should be considered to fall within the scope of protection defined by the claims submitted by the present utility model.
