Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cathodic protection test pile technology, and in particular to a battery installation mechanism for a cathodic protection test pile. Background Technology

[0002] Cathodic protection test posts are facilities used to monitor and evaluate the effectiveness of cathodic protection systems. They are typically installed along pipelines or other metal structures that require protection. Cathodic protection is a method of controlling metal corrosion by turning the metal structure being protected into a cathode in an electrochemical cell to prevent corrosion.

[0003] Chinese Patent Publication No. CN222294205U, published on 20250103, discloses an intelligent cathodic protection test pile, including a shell. A quick-release device is installed inside the shell, and a battery is installed inside the quick-release device. Electronic devices are installed above the battery inside the shell. A pressurizing device is installed at the top of the shell, and a one-way rotating device is installed at the top of the pressurizing device. A fan blade is rotatably connected to the top of the one-way rotating device. The pressurizing device includes a sealing shell, an air inlet, an air intake, an eccentric wheel, and a sealing block. The sealing shell is fixed to the top of the shell.

[0004] The existing battery installation mechanism of the aforementioned cathodic protection test pile uses a quick-release structure to shield and cover the battery connection area. After the quick-release structure is lowered, a spring pushes the battery box and battery components to deflect. In practice, the spring-driven deflection process is forced; that is, as soon as the quick-release structure is separated, the spring pushes the battery to deflect. Although this facilitates battery installation, removal, and wiring, it is not suitable for battery maintenance. Furthermore, resetting the quick-release structure requires manual deflection and reset by the operator, which is inconvenient. Therefore, there is an urgent need to propose a corresponding battery installation mechanism for the cathodic protection test pile to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a battery installation mechanism for a cathodic protection test pile in order to solve the above-mentioned problems.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention adopts the following technical solution:

[0007] A battery mounting mechanism for a cathodic protection test post includes a support frame fixedly connected to the cathodic protection test post. A placement drawer is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame via a pin. A battery is placed on the top of the placement drawer. A protruding rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the placement drawer. The outer wall of the protruding rod is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame via a sliding groove. A fixing component for fixing the protruding rod to the support frame is integrated on the outer side of the protruding rod. A closed cover is provided on the outer side of the support frame.

[0008] Preferably, the enclosure includes two detachably connected parts, both of which are fitted onto the outside of the support frame.

[0009] Preferably, sealing gaskets are fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of both the first and second parts.

[0010] Preferably, the opposing surfaces of the first and second parts are fixedly connected to limit frames, and both sets of limit frames overlap on the top of the battery component.

[0011] Preferably, both the outer walls of the first and second parts are fixedly connected with protrusions, and the two sets of protrusions are fixedly connected by a locking rod.

[0012] Preferably, the fixing component includes a locking sleeve, the protruding rod includes a threaded section and a smooth section, the inner wall of the locking sleeve is screwed into the threaded section, and the inner sidewall of the locking sleeve abuts against the outer wall of the support frame.

[0013] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of this utility model are:

[0014] 1. In this application, after placing the battery component into the placement drawer and completing the wiring of the battery component, the placement drawer is pushed. The placement drawer is rotated and engaged with the support frame through a pin. The convex rod slides synchronously along the slide groove until it reaches the limit position of the slide groove. The locking sleeve is rotated so that its open end abuts against the outer wall of the support frame. The placement drawer is fixed by the contact friction between the locking sleeve and the outer wall of the support frame. Then, the first and second parts are combined on the outside of the support frame. The locking rod is used to fix the first and second parts, thereby realizing the installation of the battery component. This ensures the sealing of the battery component connection area and allows for selective switching of the battery component's position state as needed, improving the ease of use of the battery installation mechanism of the cathodic protection test pile.

[0015] 2. In this application, after the enclosure is fixed to the outside of the support frame, the limiting frames on the inner surface of both the first and second parts abut against the top of the battery component, thereby providing vertical constraint for the battery component and further improving the stability of the battery installation mechanism of the cathodic protection test pile.

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.

[0023] Please see Figure 1-4 This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0024] A battery mounting mechanism for a cathodic protection test post includes a support frame 1 fixedly connected to the cathodic protection test post. A placement drawer 7 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 1 via a pin. A battery component 8 is placed on the top of the placement drawer 7. A protruding rod 9 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the placement drawer 7. The outer wall of the protruding rod 9 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the support frame 1 via a sliding groove 11. A fixing component for fixing the protruding rod 9 to the support frame 1 is integrated on the outer side of the protruding rod 9. A closed cover 2 is provided on the outer side of the support frame 1.

[0025] After placing the battery component 8 into the placement tray 7 and completing the wiring of the battery component 8, push the placement tray 7. The placement tray 7 is rotated and engaged with the support frame 1 through the pin. The protruding rod 9 slides synchronously along the slide groove 11 until the protruding rod 9 moves to the limit position of the slide groove 11. Then rotate the locking sleeve 10 so that its open end abuts against the outer wall of the support frame 1. The placement tray 7 is fixed by the contact friction between the locking sleeve 10 and the outer wall of the support frame 1. Then, combine the first part 201 and the second part 202 on the outside of the support frame 1. The locking rod 4 is used to fix the first part 201 and the second part 202, thereby realizing the installation of the battery component 8. While ensuring the sealing of the connection area of ​​the battery component 8, the position state of the battery component 8 can be selectively switched according to the needs, which improves the convenience of using the battery installation mechanism of the cathodic protection test pile.

[0026] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 4As shown, the enclosure 2 includes two detachably connected parts, 201 and 202. Both parts 201 and 202 are fitted onto the outside of the support frame 1. Sealing gaskets 5 are fixedly connected to the opposite surfaces of parts 201 and 202. Protrusions 3 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of parts 201 and 202. The two sets of protrusions 3 are fixedly connected by locking rods 4, which ensures the ease of disassembly and assembly of the enclosure 2 and the airtightness between the enclosure 2 and the support frame 1.

[0027] Specifically, such as Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the opposing surfaces of split body 1 201 and split body 2 202 are fixedly connected with limiting frames 6, and both sets of limiting frames 6 overlap the top of the battery component 8. After the enclosure 2 is fixed to the outside of the support frame 1, the limiting frames 6 on the inner surface of split body 1 201 and split body 2 202 abut against the top of the battery component 8, thereby providing vertical constraint for the battery component 8 and further improving the stability of the battery installation mechanism of the cathodic protection test pile.

[0028] Specifically, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the fixing component includes a locking sleeve 10 and a protruding rod 9, which includes a threaded section and a smooth section. The inner surface of the locking sleeve 10 is screwed into the threaded section. The inner side wall of the locking sleeve 10 abuts against the outer surface of the support frame 1, pushing the drawer 7. The drawer 7 is rotated and engaged with the support frame 1 via a pin. The protruding rod 9 slides synchronously along the slide groove 11 until it moves to the limit position of the slide groove 11. The locking sleeve 10 is rotated so that its open end abuts against the outer surface of the support frame 1. The drawer 7 is fixed by the contact friction between the locking sleeve 10 and the outer surface of the support frame 1.

[0029] Working principle: After placing the battery component 8 into the placement drawer 7 and completing the wiring of the battery component 8, push the placement drawer 7. The placement drawer 7 is rotated and engaged with the support frame 1 via a pin. The protruding rod 9 slides synchronously along the slide groove 11 until the protruding rod 9 moves to the limit position of the slide groove 11. Then rotate the locking sleeve 10 so that its open end abuts against the outer wall of the support frame 1. The placement drawer 7 is fixed by the contact friction between the locking sleeve 10 and the outer wall of the support frame 1. Then, combine the first part 201 and the second part 202 on the outside of the support frame 1. Finally, the locking rod 4 completes the separation. The fixing of body 1 201 and body 2 202 enables the installation of battery component 8, ensuring the sealing of the connection area of ​​battery component 8 while allowing selective switching of the position state of battery component 8 as needed, thus improving the ease of use of the battery installation mechanism of the cathodic protection test pile. After the enclosure 2 is fixed to the outside of the support frame 1, the limiting brackets 6 on the inner surface of body 1 201 and body 2 202 abut against the top of battery component 8, thereby providing vertical constraint for battery component 8 and further improving the stability of the battery installation mechanism of the cathodic protection test pile.

[0030] The above description of the embodiments enables those skilled in the art to make or use the present invention. Various modifications to these embodiments will be readily apparent to those skilled in the art, and the general principles defined herein may be implemented in other embodiments without departing from the spirit or scope of the present invention.
