Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application relates to curing chambers, and more particularly to a curing chamber structure for lead-acid batteries. Background Technology
[0002] Existing curing chambers are generally quite large. The plates to be cured are placed directly inside the curing chamber, which is then connected to a circulating air duct for ventilation and drying. However, the large size of the curing chamber results in significant energy loss and low curing efficiency, typically requiring 50 to 72 hours. The equipment also occupies a large area. Furthermore, the curing and drying time varies for plates in different areas due to different air velocities, leading to significant differences in the final physical and chemical properties of the plates. Therefore, improvements are needed. Utility Model Content

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.
[0022] Combination Figures 1-3 As shown, the lead-acid battery curing chamber structure 100 includes a curing box 101. Multiple curing chambers 102 are arranged inside the curing box 101. Each curing chamber 102 is sealed at both ends to one end of a flared opening 103, and the other end of the flared opening 103 is sealed to a circulating air duct 104. A circulating fan 105 and a heating and humidification system (not shown) are installed on the circulating air duct 104. The circulating fan 105 is located at the top of the curing box 101. Multiple layers of electrode plates 106 to be cured are arranged sequentially inside the curing chambers 102. Multiple curing chambers 102 are arranged in multiple layers, with multiple chambers arranged side-by-side in each layer. These multiple curing chambers 102 are supported by a conveyor belt 107. An inlet 108 for the conveyor belt 107 is formed on one side of the curing box 101. Three layers of curing chambers 102 are arranged, with three chambers arranged side-by-side in each layer. The flared opening 103 is a telescopic opening; when the curing chamber 102 is conveyed into position, the flared opening 103 extends to seal against both ends of the curing chamber 102. A cylinder 109, a telescopic support 110 driven by the cylinder 109, and an outer sleeve 111 of the flared opening 103 driven by the telescopic support 110 are provided at the flared opening 103. Limiting grooves 112 are formed on the inner sides of both ends of the conveyor belt 107, and support legs 113 that engage with the limiting grooves 112 are provided at the bottom of the curing chamber 102. Support strips 114 supporting the electrode plate 106 to be cured are formed inside the curing chamber 102. Each curing chamber 102 in the same vertical column is independently connected to a circulating fan 105 and a circulating air duct 104.
[0023] In practical use, the curing chambers can be freely configured as needed. This technical solution uses a 3*3 curing chamber as an example. The curing chambers, which are stacked and bonded together, are conveyed into the curing chamber by a conveyor belt with limiting grooves. The curing chambers are open on both sides and closed at the front, back, top, and bottom. The plates to be cured are placed in rows inside. After entering the curing chamber, due to the limiting conveyor, when they reach the corresponding positions, the flared openings on both sides are driven by cylinders to engage with the annular grooves at both ends, sealing and connecting to the circulating air duct. The curing chambers in the same vertical column use one circulating air duct and one circulating fan, and then the curing process begins. This equipment improves curing efficiency, reduces energy loss, and significantly reduces the equipment's footprint.
