Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lead-acid battery technology, and more specifically to a battery handle installation tool. Background Technology

[0002] Starting lead-acid batteries are characterized by low cost, large capacity, and high safety, but their heavy weight limits their application. Because of their weight, installing and removing starting lead-acid batteries in vehicles is laborious, so handles are designed into them to improve convenience. To prevent the handle from falling off, it is generally installed with a rigid fit, ensuring it is not easily detached and has high safety. In practice, handles are usually installed by forcefully pressing them in by hand or hammering them in with a rubber mallet. This can lead to inconsistent installation and damage to the handle from the rubber mallet.

[0003] Therefore, how to provide a battery handle installation tool that increases the consistency and convenience of handle installation and achieves time-saving and labor-saving installation is a problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0004] In view of this, the present invention provides a battery handle installation fixture, which aims to solve the above-mentioned technical problems.

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

[0006] A battery handle installation fixture, comprising:

[0007] A crossbar, on which a spring is fitted;

[0008] Two rodless cylinders are arranged opposite each other and slidably connected to the two ends of the crossbar opposite the spring.

[0009] An air pump, which is pneumatically connected to the rodless cylinder via an air pipe;

[0010] The support plates consist of two pieces, with their panels respectively fixed vertically to the opposite ends of the two rodless cylinders to hold the handles. The panels of the two support plates corresponding to the crossbars have sliding holes that can be fitted onto the crossbars.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the above technical solution are as follows: before installation, the mounting hole of the handle corresponds to the position of the battery mounting protrusion. Two support plates are clamped on both sides of the handle. The air pump can provide pressure to drive two rodless cylinders to slide along the crossbar. During the sliding process, the two rodless cylinders move closer to each other, compressing the spring and simultaneously driving the two support plates to move closer to each other. The two support plates can also slide along the crossbar through the sliding hole. During the process of the two support plates moving closer to each other, they can press the mounting hole of the handle tightly onto the battery mounting protrusion. After the handle is installed in place, the air pump is depressurized, the spring returns to its original position, and the elastic force pushes the two rodless cylinders to their initial position.

[0012] Preferably, a handle is fixed to the wall of the crossbar. The handle allows for easy handling of the installation fixture.

[0013] Preferably, the handle is equipped with a control switch, which is communicatively connected to the air pipe to control the opening and closing of the air passage between the air pump and the rodless cylinder. The air pump can be preset with pressure. Pressing the control switch opens the air passage, and the air pump drives the rodless cylinder to slide. After the handle is installed, releasing the control switch closes the air passage, and there is no pressure in the rodless cylinder. The spring force can drive the rodless cylinder to reset, allowing the installation of the next handle to proceed.

[0014] Preferably, buffer pads are fixed on the panels of both support plates corresponding to the handle mounting holes, and the two buffer pads are respectively fixed on the two opposite panels of the two support plates. The buffer pads can buffer the driving force of the rodless cylinder, prevent the support plates from damaging the handle due to excessive pressure, and ensure the integrity and effectiveness of the handle installation.

[0015] Preferably, the buffer pad is a circular rubber pad, and the outer diameter of the buffer pad is larger than the outer diameter of the handle mounting hole. The buffer pad corresponds to the handle mounting hole and is larger than the outer diameter of the mounting hole, ensuring that the buffer pad can completely cover the handle mounting hole.

[0016] Preferably, the piston of the rodless cylinder is sleeved on the crossbar, and the end of the spring abuts against the end of the rodless cylinder. This sleeved arrangement ensures the stability of the rodless cylinder as it slides along the crossbar under air pressure. The sliding of the rodless cylinder compresses the spring; when the pressure is released, the spring returns to its original position, and the rodless cylinder returns to its original position synchronously under the action of the spring force.

[0017] Preferably, the length of the support plate is greater than the height of the handle, and the axis of the support plate along its length is perpendicular to the axis of the rodless cylinder. This ensures that the two support plates can be completely clamped between the two sides of the handle.

[0018] As can be seen from the above technical solution, compared with the prior art, this utility model discloses a battery handle installation fixture, which can improve the consistency and convenience of handle installation, achieve the effect of saving time and effort in installation, and also control the handle installation process to prevent installers from installing it arbitrarily, thereby reducing the probability of improper handle installation or handle breakage.

[0030] Support plate 3, there are two support plates 3, and their panels are respectively vertically fixed to the opposite ends of the two rodless cylinders 2 to hold the handle 10. The two support plates 3 have sliding holes on their panels corresponding to the crossbar 1, which can be fitted onto the crossbar 1.

[0031] Before installation, align the mounting holes of the handle 10 with the positions of the battery mounting protrusions 11, ensuring the handle 10 is parallel to the top surface of the battery. Clamp the two support plates 3 on both sides of the handle 10. Start the air pump 5. Under air pressure, the two rodless cylinders 2 slide relative to each other along the crossbar 1. During the sliding process, the two rodless cylinders 2 compress the spring 7 and drive the support plates 3 to slide synchronously along the crossbar 1. The support plates 3 provide clamping force during the sliding process, embedding the mounting holes of the handle 10 into the battery mounting protrusions 11. After the handle is installed in place, the air pump 5 stops working, the rodless cylinders 2 depressurize, and the spring 7 returns to its original position. During the return process, the spring 7 pushes the two rodless cylinders 2 to return to their original positions under the action of elasticity, allowing the installation of the next handle to proceed.

[0032] To further optimize the above technical solution and facilitate the use and handling during installation, a handle 8 is fixed to the wall of the crossbar 1.

[0033] To further optimize the above technical solution, a control switch 9 is provided on the handle 8. The control switch 9 is connected to the air pipe 6 to control the opening and closing of the air passage between the air pump 5 and the rodless cylinder 2.

[0034] The air pump can be preset with pressure. Pressing the control switch opens the passage between the air pump and the air pipe, which drives the rodless cylinder to slide along the crossbar. Releasing the control switch closes the air passage, and the rodless cylinder can be reset by the action of the spring.

[0035] To further optimize the above technical solution and prevent damage to the handle during installation, buffer pads 4 are fixed on the panels of the two support plates 3 corresponding to the mounting holes of the handle 10. The two buffer pads 4 are fixed on the two opposite panels of the two support plates 3 respectively.

[0036] To further optimize the above technical solution and ensure the effective installation of the handle, the buffer pad 4 is a circular rubber pad, and the outer diameter of the buffer pad 4 is larger than the outer diameter of the mounting hole of the handle 10.

[0037] In order to further optimize the above technical solution and improve the stability and self-resetting ability of the rodless cylinder during the sliding process along the crossbar, the piston of the rodless cylinder 2 is sleeved on the crossbar 1, and the end of the spring 7 abuts against the end of the rodless cylinder 2.

[0038] In this embodiment, the length of the support plate 3 is greater than the height of the handle 10, and the axis of the length direction of the support plate 3 is arranged perpendicular to the axis of the rodless cylinder 2.
