Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of thermal battery activation technology, and in particular relates to a thermal battery activation control tooling. Background Technology

[0002] During the discharge testing of hot batteries, an activation fixture is required to assist in activating the battery. Due to the battery's unique structure, conventional activation fixtures cannot activate it. Furthermore, it requires personnel to be isolated from the battery during discharge and to remotely control the fixture to activate the battery. Therefore, an activation fixture is needed to solve both the activation problems arising from the hot battery's structure and the remote control issues. Utility Model Content

[0003] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model provides a thermal battery activation control fixture.

[0004] This utility model is achieved through the following technical solution.

[0005] This utility model provides a thermal battery activation control fixture, including a cylinder mounting plate, an upper mounting plate, a base plate, and an activation component. The cylinder mounting plate is equipped with a pressure reducing valve, a solenoid valve, and a cylinder. The cylinder mounting plate is connected to the upper mounting plate via a screw. The upper mounting plate is connected to the base plate via a support rod. The activation component is mounted on the thermal battery, and the upper mounting plate is connected to the thermal battery.

[0006] Preferably, the activation component includes an activation seat, an elastic element, and an activation rod. The activation seat is provided with a sliding groove. One end of the elastic element is connected to the side wall of the sliding groove, and the other end of the elastic element is connected to the activation rod. The activation rod is slidably connected within the sliding groove.

[0007] Preferably, the bottom of the slide is provided with an insertion hole, and the activation rod is provided with a pin, which passes through the activation rod and extends into the insertion hole.

[0008] Preferably, the cylinder telescopic rod is connected to a pull ring, and the pull ring is provided with a through hole.

[0009] Preferably, the pull ring is connected to the connecting rope through a through hole, and the pull ring is connected to the pin through the connecting rope.

[0010] Preferably, the pressure reducing valve is connected to the solenoid valve via an air pipe, and the solenoid valve is connected to the cylinder via an air pipe.

[0011] Preferably, the cylinder is connected to the air pipe via a throttle valve.

[0012] Preferably, the cylinder mounting plate has a first slot, and the base plate has a second slot.

[0013] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] The air pressure in this invention is regulated by a pressure reducing valve. Gas flows from the air pipe to the solenoid valve, which is remotely controlled to change the airflow channel, thereby controlling the extension and retraction of the cylinder. A pull ring is installed on the cylinder, and a pull cable connects the pull ring to the pin. The movement of the cylinder causes the pin to be pulled out, losing its limiting function. Under the guidance of the slide groove and the action of the spring, the activation rod strikes the base of the hot battery, completing the battery activation. The operator can remotely control the fixture, ensuring the safety of the activation process. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0020] The technical solution of this utility model is further described below, but the scope of protection is not limited to what is described.

[0021] Example:

[0022] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, a thermal battery activation control fixture includes a cylinder mounting plate 1, an upper mounting plate 9, a base plate 11, and an activation component. The cylinder mounting plate 1 is equipped with a pressure reducing valve 2, a solenoid valve 4, and a cylinder 5. The pressure reducing valve 2, the solenoid valve 4, and the cylinder 5 are connected and fastened to the cylinder mounting plate 1 by screws. The cylinder mounting plate 1 is threadedly connected to the upper mounting plate 9 by a screw 7. The upper mounting plate 9 is connected to the base plate 11 by a support rod 10. The activation component is mounted on the thermal battery 16, and the upper mounting plate 9 is connected to the thermal battery 16.

[0023] The activation assembly includes an activation seat 12, an elastic element 13, and an activation rod 14. The activation seat 12 has two grooves 121. One end of the elastic element 13 is connected to the side wall of the groove 121, and the other end is connected to the activation rod 14. The elastic element 13 provides elastic potential energy for the activation rod 14 to activate the thermal battery. The activation rod 14 is slidably connected within the grooves 121. A protrusion is provided at the end of the activation rod 14 away from the elastic element 13 for impacting the thermal battery to activate it. The grooves 121 accurately position the activation rod 14 to activate the battery.

[0024] The bottom of the slide groove 121 is provided with a socket 122, and the activation rod 14 is provided with a pin 15. The pin 15 passes through the activation rod 14 and extends into the socket 122. The pin 15 is perpendicular to the activation rod 14. This arrangement allows the activation rod 14 to be fixed in position when the pin is not pulled out. At this time, the elastic element 13 is in a compressed state.

[0025] The cylinder 5 telescopic rod is connected to the pull ring 8, and the pull ring 8 is provided with a through hole 81.

[0026] The pull ring 8 is connected to the connecting rope 17 through the through hole 81, and the pull ring 8 is connected to the pin 15 through the connecting rope 17.

[0027] The pressure reducing valve 2 is connected to the solenoid valve 4 via the air pipe 3, and the solenoid valve 4 is connected to the cylinder 5 via the air pipe 3. The pressure reducing valve 2 is connected to the cylinder mounting plate 1 via screws. The pressure reducing valve 2 can adjust the inlet pressure so that the cylinder 5 reaches the pressure value that can complete the operation. The air pipe 3 is a PU pipe used for connecting gas delivery. The solenoid valve 4 can remotely control the air circuit and change the state of the cylinder 5. The cylinder 5 is the main component for activation. According to the change of state, the cylinder 5 can retract the telescopic rod, which drives the connecting rope 17 to pull out the pin 15, so that the activation rod 14 strikes the battery base under the action of the elastic potential energy of the spring 13, thus completing the activation.

[0028] The cylinder 5 is connected to the air pipe 3 through the throttle valve 6. The cylinder 5 and the throttle valve 6 are connected by a thread. The throttle valve 6 can adjust the airflow speed and control the speed of the cylinder 5's movement.

[0029] The cylinder mounting plate 1 is provided with a first slot 101 to reduce the mass of the cylinder mounting plate 1. The base plate 11 is provided with a second slot 111. The thermal battery 16 can pass through the base plate 11 through the second slot 111 and extend into the tooling to connect with the upper mounting plate 9.
