Power batteries are a core component of new energy vehicles and a crucial direction for future energy transition. With the rapid development of the new energy industry, the lifespan of early-marketed power battery packs has largely expired, and power battery recycling technology is still in its infancy. Power battery pack racks are structures used to protect and store recycled battery packs.

[0003] Currently, when recycling power battery packs, the exterior is covered with dust and dirt, making manual cleaning inconvenient and inefficient, and increasing labor costs and recycling costs. Therefore, we need to propose a power battery pack rack with cleaning function. Utility Model Content

[0022] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0023] This utility model provides: a power battery pack rack with a cleaning function, such as... Figure 1-4 As shown, the device includes a rack frame 1 for placing battery packs. Four sets of limiting rods 4 are symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the rack frame 1, and a feeding plate 6 is arranged between the four sets of limiting rods 4. A vacuum cleaner 3 is arranged on the upper surface of the rack frame 1 and on one side of the limiting rods 4. When cleaning the battery pack, the vacuum cleaner 3 is activated to suck up the cleaned dust, preventing the dust from floating in the air and affecting the health of the staff. A dust collection box 2 is snapped into the lower part of the rack frame 1, and a groove is provided in the middle of the rack frame 1 that communicates with the dust collection box 2, so that the falling dust can enter the interior of the dust collection box 2, which facilitates dust collection and further prevents the dust from flying in the air.

[0024] Preferably, a pressing plate 5 is slidably disposed on the upper surface of the feeding plate 6, and an upper cleaning brush 8 and a lower cleaning brush 11 are respectively disposed on the upper and lower sides of the feeding plate 6. A cleaning component for driving the upper cleaning brush 8 and the lower cleaning brush 11 to clean the battery pack is disposed on the upper surface of the material rack frame 1. The cleaning component includes a rack 13, a gear 18, a drive module and a limiting module. Two sets of racks 13 and gears 18 are provided. One side of the upper cleaning brush 8 and the lower cleaning brush 11 is connected to a gear 18. The two sets of racks 13 are respectively meshed with the two sets of gears 18. The drive module drives the two sets of gears 18 to move. The two sets of gears 18 rotate while moving under the meshing of the racks 13. The outer arc surface of the lower cleaning brush 11 is set with a longer brush. At the same time, several sets of grooves are opened through the surface of the feeding plate 6 to ensure that the lower cleaning brush 11 can pass through the feeding plate 6 to clean the bottom of the battery pack, thereby ensuring the cleaning effect of the battery pack.

[0025] It is worth noting that the drive module includes a cleaning motor 9, a connecting post 17, a cleaning lead screw 19, and a moving block 20. The cleaning motor 9 is bolted to one side of the material rack frame 1. The cleaning lead screw 19 is keyed to the output end of the cleaning motor 9. The moving block 20 is threaded onto the outer arc surface of the cleaning lead screw 19. The connecting post 17 is fixedly set on the side of the moving block 20 away from the material rack frame 1. The connecting post 17 is rotatably connected to two sets of gears 18. The moving block 20 is set as a convex block, and a moving groove 14 corresponding to the moving block 20 is opened on the side of the material rack frame 1. The cleaning lead screw 19 is rotatably set inside the moving groove 14. When the cleaning motor 9 is started, it drives the cleaning lead screw 19 to rotate. The cleaning lead screw 19 drives the moving block 20 to move inside the moving groove 14. The moving block 20 then drives the two sets of gears 18 to rotate and move simultaneously through the connecting post 17, thereby ensuring that the upper and lower sides of the battery pack can be cleaned. The cleaning motor 9 mentioned in the text can be a stepper motor such as the 57HS series.

[0026] Furthermore, the limiting module includes a limiting frame 12 and a limiting post 16. Both the limiting frame 12 and the limiting post 16 are provided in two sets. Both sets of limiting frames 12 are fixedly connected to the corresponding limiting rods 4. The limiting post 16 is sleeved on the outer arc surface of the connecting post 17, and the two sets of limiting posts 16 are slidably disposed inside the corresponding limiting frame 12. The limiting post 16 is rotatably connected to the corresponding gear 18. When the gear 18 rotates and moves, the limiting post 16 moves inside the limiting frame 12, thereby limiting the upper cleaning brush 8, the lower cleaning brush 11 and the gear 18, ensuring that the upper cleaning brush 8 and the lower cleaning brush 11 rotate and move on the upper and lower sides of the feeding plate 6, thereby further ensuring the cleaning effect of the battery pack.

[0027] Furthermore, side limiting rods 7 are symmetrically arranged on the upper surface of the material rack frame 1 and on both sides of the feeding plate 6. Two sets of racks 13 are fixedly arranged on one side of the corresponding limiting rod 4. The two sets of racks 13 are located on the corresponding surfaces of the two sets of gears 18, and the two sets of racks 13 do not contact the side limiting rods 7. The side limiting rods 7 do not contact the racks 13, ensuring the stability of the racks 13 driving the gears 18 to rotate. The side limiting rods 7 limit the battery pack above the feeding plate 6, preventing the battery pack from detaching from the surface of the feeding plate 6 and preventing foreign objects from hitting the battery pack.

[0028] Specifically, an extrusion block 15 is fixedly installed on the lower surface of the extrusion plate 5. The extrusion block 15 is a protrusion, and an extrusion groove corresponding to the extrusion block 15 is opened on the upper surface of the feeding plate 6. An extrusion motor 10 is bolted to the side of the feeding plate 6. An adjusting screw 21 is keyed to the output end of the extrusion motor 10, and the extrusion block 15 is threaded onto the outer arc surface of the adjusting screw 21. After the operator places the battery pack on the feeding plate 6, the battery pack is cleaned by the upper cleaning brush 8 and the lower cleaning brush 11. Then, the extrusion motor 10 is started to drive the extrusion plate 5 to move toward the battery pack, thereby... The battery pack is moved by squeezing, and then the battery pack is cleaned again by the upper cleaning brush 8 and the lower cleaning brush 11. This avoids the support rod on the surface of the material feeding plate 6 affecting the cleaning effect of the lower cleaning brush 11 on the bottom of the battery pack. The squeezing motor 10 mentioned in the text can be a small stepper motor such as 28BYJ-48. A power supply for the cleaning motor 9 and the squeezing motor 10 is set on the side of the material rack frame 1. At the same time, a PLC controller such as Siemens S7-200 or Mitsubishi FX series is set to control the cleaning motor 9 and the squeezing motor 10 through programming.

[0029] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
