Description

Technical Field

[0002] The explosion-proof performance test of lead-acid batteries is a key item in the safety performance indicators of battery products. The electrolyte of the battery is a sulfuric acid solution, and the electrodes are made of lead and its oxides. Overcharging will produce hydrogen, oxygen and other gases that escape. When the concentration of this mixture of gases exceeds 4% in the air of a confined space, it will explode when exposed to an open flame, which may damage the battery or even cause injury and property damage.

[0003] Existing technologies typically use blown fuses to test the explosion-proof performance of lead-acid batteries. For example, the battery explosion-proof performance testing device disclosed in utility model CN205038318U has a fuse installed inside the enclosure and a transformer and current regulating device installed outside the enclosure. The fuse is placed above the battery vent, and the blown fuse is used to check whether the battery has caught fire or exploded. However, the fuse position in this solution is relatively fixed. For different battery specifications, different battery mounts need to be replaced so that the vent of different battery specifications can be aligned with the fuse. This setup results in poor device adaptability, and for some special batteries, such as those with vents located on the side, it is difficult to perform explosion-proof performance testing.

[0051] The technical solutions of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to specific embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of this utility model, and not all of them. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0052] This utility model discloses a test fixture for the explosion-proof performance of lead-acid batteries, comprising a universal adjustment seat 2, a positioner 3, a fuse 4, and a DC current generator 5.

[0053] Positioner 3 is fixedly mounted on the output end of universal adjustment base 2, and fuse 4 is fixedly mounted on positioner 3 and electrically connected to DC current generator 5, such as Figure 1As shown, when testing a lead-acid battery, the lead-acid battery and universal adjustment seat 2 are placed inside the explosion-proof box 1, and the DC current generator 5 is placed outside the explosion-proof box 1. The fuse 4 is fixed above the lead-acid battery vent valve by adjusting the universal adjustment seat 2. Then, the DC current generator 5 is used to cause the fuse 4 to melt and generate an electric spark. The lead-acid battery is observed to see if it burns or explodes in order to determine the explosion-proof performance of the lead-acid battery.

[0054] To improve the testing process, components such as exhaust fans, temperature sensors, and fire nozzles can be installed inside the explosion-proof enclosure 1 to promptly eliminate the impact of battery explosion or combustion.

[0055] The universal adjustment seat 2 includes a base plate 21, a base frame 22, a top frame 23, and a universal seat 24. The base plate 21 is installed inside the explosion-proof box 1. The base frame 22 is fixedly installed on the base plate 21 in a rotatable manner. The top frame 23 is fixedly installed on the base frame 22. The universal seat 24 is fixedly installed on the top frame 23 and is fixedly connected to the positioner 3. By rotating the base frame 22 and the universal seat 24, the positioner 3 and the fuse 4 on the positioner 3 can be rotated to make the fuse 4 be at a suitable angle.

[0056] The base frame 22 includes a rotating cylinder 221, a main beam 222, bolts 223, an auxiliary beam 224, and a tension spring 225, as follows: Figure 5 As shown, the rotating drum 221 is fixedly mounted on the base plate 21, and the main beam 222 is rotatably mounted inside the rotating drum 221. The bolt 223 passes through the rotating drum 221 and is connected to the rotating drum 221 by threaded engagement. The front end of the bolt 223 abuts against the main beam 222. When the bolt 223 is loosened, the main beam 222 can be rotated. When the main beam 222 is rotated to the appropriate position, the bolt 223 is tightened so that the front end of the bolt 223 abuts against the main beam 222 and is fixed.

[0057] like Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the top frame 23 is rotatably mounted on the main beam 222, and one end of the auxiliary beam 224 is rotatably mounted on the main beam 222, while the other end is detachably fixed to the top frame 23. By rotating the top frame 23 and removing and fixing the auxiliary beam 224 to the main beam 222, the height and angle of the top frame 23 can be adjusted so that the fuse 4 can be adapted to lead-acid batteries of different specifications.

[0058] The auxiliary beam 224 and the top frame 23 are preferably fixed with screws to enable quick assembly and disassembly. The tension spring 225 is fixed between the main beam 222 and the auxiliary beam 224. When the screws are loosened, the elastic force of the tension spring 225 is used to bring the auxiliary beam 224 closer to the main beam 222, thereby allowing the base frame 22 to fold quickly.

[0059] like Figure 1As shown, the structure of the top frame 23 is the same as that of the base frame 22, in order to enhance the adjustment performance of the universal adjustment seat 2.

[0060] like Figure 4 As shown, the universal joint 24 includes a rotating frame 241, a fixed rod 242, and a friction plate 243. The rotating frame 241 is fixedly mounted on the positioner 3, the fixed rod 242 is fixedly mounted on the top frame 23, and the friction plate 243 is fixedly mounted on the fixed rod 242 and abuts against and is rotatably connected to the rotating frame 241. Preferably, the end of the fixed rod 242 away from the top frame 23 and the friction plate 243 are both spherical structures. A spherical groove is opened on the rotating frame 241. The high friction performance of the friction plate 243 is used to fix the friction plate 243 and the rotating frame 241. When a large external force is applied to the positioner 3, the rotating frame 241 can rotate relative to the friction plate 243 to realize the angle adjustment of the positioner 3 and the fuse 4.

[0061] Positioner 3 includes mounting bracket 31, slide bar 32, baffle 33, clamping plate 34, spring 35, and terminal block 36, such as Figures 2-4 As shown, the mounting bracket 31 is fixedly mounted on the universal adjustment seat 2. The slide rod 32 passes through and slides within the mounting bracket 31. The baffle 33 and clamp 34 are respectively fixedly mounted at both ends of the slide rod 32. The spring 35 is held between the mounting bracket 31 and the baffle 33. By sliding the slide rod 32 along the direction from the baffle 33 to the clamp 34, the spring 35 will retract, creating a gap between the clamp 34 and the mounting bracket 31. At this time, one end of the fuse 4 is placed in this gap, and the slide rod 32 is released. The elastic force of the spring 35 allows the slide rod 32 to return to its original position, so that the clamp 34 and the mounting bracket 31 hold and fix one end of the fuse 4. The disassembly and assembly of the fuse 4 is relatively simple, which can greatly improve the operational convenience of this testing fixture and the testing efficiency of the battery.

[0062] like Figure 4 As shown, terminal 36 is fixedly installed on the side of baffle 33 away from slide bar 32. Slide bar 32, baffle 33 and terminal 36 are all made of conductive material. By electrically connecting terminal 36 to DC current generator 5 through wire, the fuse 4 and DC current generator 5 can be automatically connected. When assembling fuse 4, it is not necessary to electrically connect fuse 4 and DC current generator 5, which can also improve the testing efficiency of battery.

[0063] In order to fix the two ends of the fuse 4 and make it electrically conductive, there are two of each of the slide rod 32, baffle 33, clamp 34, spring 35 and terminal 36. The two terminal 36, two springs 35, two clamps 34, two baffles 33 and two slide rods 32 correspond one to one, and the two terminal 36 are respectively connected to the positive and negative terminals of the DC current generator 5.

[0064] like Figure 3 As shown, the mounting bracket 31 includes a plate 311 and two sleeves 312. The plate 311 is fixedly mounted on the universal adjustment seat 2, and the sleeves 312 are fixedly mounted through the plate 311. A sliding rod 32 corresponds one-to-one with a sleeve 312, and the sliding rod 32 is slidably disposed within the sleeve 312; the sleeves 312 are used to maintain the sliding stability of the sliding rod 32. Preferably, the two sleeves 312 are parallel and spaced apart.

[0065] A slot 301 is provided on the top side of the slide rod 32, such as... Figure 3 As shown, when the end of the fuse 4 is placed in the slot 301, when the spring 35 moves the clamp 34 close to the mounting bracket 31, the end of the fuse 4 can abut against the inner wall of the slot 301 to improve the firmness of the positioner 3 in fixing the fuse 4.

[0066] The slot 301 is inclined, and the inner wall of the slot 301 gradually approaches the clamp 34 from top to bottom. When the slide bar 32 rebounds, the inner wall of the slot 301 supports the fuse 4, allowing the fuse 4 to gradually approach the lower end of the slot 301, thereby improving the ease of installation of the fuse 4.

[0067] like Figure 3 As shown, a limiting groove 302 is provided at the end of the sleeve 312 away from the baffle 33. When the clamping plate 34 abuts against the sleeve 312, the fuse 4 abuts against the inner wall of the limiting groove 302 and the clamping plate 34, thereby strengthening the fixation of the locator 3 on the fuse 4.

[0068] The DC current generator 5 is used to generate DC current and can be made of dry cell batteries or lithium batteries.

[0069] The method of using the lead-acid battery explosion-proof performance testing fixture of this utility model is as follows:

[0070] First, place the lead-acid battery and universal adjustment seat 2 inside the explosion-proof box 1, and place the DC current generator 5 outside the explosion-proof box 1. Then, fix both ends of the fuse 4 to the positioner 3. Next, use the adjustment of the universal adjustment seat 2 to fix the fuse 4 above the lead-acid battery exhaust valve. Finally, use the DC current generator 5 to cause the fuse 4 to melt and generate an electric spark. Observe whether the lead-acid battery burns or explodes to determine the explosion-proof performance of the lead-acid battery.

[0071] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
