Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to a battery connector, and more particularly to an oil-immersed battery energy storage connector with a rotatable plug. Background Technology
[0002] A battery is a device that converts chemical energy into electrical energy. It contains an electrolyte solution and metal electrodes, forming a cup, tank, or other container or composite container that generates an electric current. It has a positive and a negative electrode. With technological advancements, the term "battery" now generally refers to any small device capable of generating electrical energy. Oil-immersed batteries are a type of battery characterized by immersing battery components (such as the battery plate and electrolyte) in insulating oil to provide superior insulation, heat dissipation, and protection. Oil-immersed batteries transmit electrical energy via connectors during use.
[0003] Currently, most oil-immersed battery connectors are two-prong or three-prong plugs. Connecting the plug to a two-prong or three-prong socket enables the connector to connect to the power supply equipment and deliver power. However, two-prong plugs cannot adapt to the pin arrangement of three-prong sockets in different environments, resulting in model limitations, affecting power delivery, and hindering battery charging. Therefore, it is necessary to design an oil-immersed battery energy storage connector with a rotating plug to facilitate compatibility with different types of sockets. Utility Model Content
[0004] In view of the above-mentioned problems in the prior art, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an oil-immersed battery energy storage connector with a rotatable plug, so as to realize that the plug of the oil-immersed battery energy storage connector has a rotation function, which facilitates the use of the connector plug with different types of sockets.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the technical solution of this utility model is as follows:
[0006] A rotatable oil-immersed battery energy storage connector includes a plug body and a feed line. The plug body has two conductive plates, and each conductive plate has a power line connected to the feed line on one side. A common angle adjustment component is disposed between the conductive plates and the plug body, and the conductive plates are rotatably mounted on the plug body through the angle adjustment component. A wire adjustment element is disposed through one side of the angle adjustment component, and the power line is wound on the wire adjustment element for energizing the conductive plates at different rotation angles.
[0007] Preferably, the angle adjustment assembly includes a fixed plate fixedly connected to the plug body, a rotating disk rotatably disposed at the end of the fixed plate, a drive shaft passing through the middle of the rotating disk, one end of the drive shaft being connected to a conductive plate, and an adjustment plate disposed at the other end of the drive shaft, the adjustment plate being located on the outside of the plug body.
[0008] Preferably, the conductive plate is located on the outside of the plug body, and a number of toothed blocks are provided on the opposite side of the fixed disk and the rotating disk. The fixed disk and the rotating disk are connected by the toothed blocks in an alternating meshing manner, and the outer end of the toothed blocks is provided with an arc-shaped part.
[0009] Preferably, a movable seat is provided through the outer side of the drive shaft, and a bushing is rotatably disposed in the movable seat, and the power line passes through the bushing and the drive shaft.
[0010] Preferably, the line adjustment component includes an insulating box that is connected through the angle adjustment assembly. A winding shaft is rotatably disposed in the insulating box. A spring disc connected to the power cord is disposed on one side of the winding shaft, and the spring disc is wound around the winding shaft.
[0011] Preferably, both ends of the spring disc are provided with limit blocks, which are U-shaped. One limit block is fixed to the winding shaft, and the other limit block is snapped into the power cord.
[0012] Preferably, a hinge seat is provided on the side of the plug body near the conveyor line, an elastic bolt is provided through the conveyor line and the hinge seat, and the same half-sleeve is provided between the plug body and the conveyor line.
[0013] Compared with existing technologies, the oil-immersed battery energy storage connector provided by this utility model has a rotating plug that allows adjustment of the operating angle of the two conductive plates, facilitating compatibility with different types of sockets. Specifically, by using an angle adjustment component that runs through the conductive plates and the plug, the user can easily adjust the operating angle of the conductive plates by moving the adjustment plate and the power-off conductive plate. Different distribution states of the two conductive plates allow the connector to be used with different types of sockets, facilitating different installation configurations of the plug and socket. The increased rotatability of the plug provides favorable conditions for connecting two-hole plugs and three-hole sockets, thus expanding the connector's application range.
[0014] Furthermore, the through connection between the line adjustment component and the angle adjustment assembly provides favorable conditions for the power line movement caused by the adjustment of the conductive plate angle using the line adjustment assembly. It also facilitates the winding or unwinding of the power line on the take-up shaft using the spring disc, supplementing the length of the conductive plate angle adjustment line, preventing power line breakage, and improving the safety of the connector plug rotation. Finally, the use of the hinge seat and elastic bolt between the plug and the conveyor line facilitates the addition of an angle adjustment structure between the plug and the conveyor line. The use of rubber material in the elastic bolt reduces the rotational friction between the conveyor line and the plug, which is very beneficial for the rotational use of the connector.

[0024] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this disclosure clearer, the embodiments of this disclosure will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Note: The described embodiments are only some, not all, of the embodiments of this disclosure. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the described embodiments of this disclosure without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this disclosure.
[0025] As attached Figure 1 To be continued Figure 5 As shown, the oil-immersed battery energy storage connector provided in this embodiment of the present invention has a rotating plug. By adjusting the angle of the two conductive plates, the plug can be used with different types of sockets. Existing connectors have a plug body 1 and a transmission line 13. The plug body 1 has two conductive plates 11. Through the conductive material of the conductive plates 11, electrical energy from the power supply equipment can be diverted to the connector. Then, a power line 12 is provided on one side of the conductive plate 11, connecting the power line 12 to the transmission line 13. Finally, the charging end of the connector is connected to the battery to achieve battery charging. To enable the plug to rotate, an angle adjustment component 2 can be installed between the conductive plate 11 and the plug body 1. The conductive plate 11 is rotatably mounted on the plug body 1 via the angle adjustment component 2. External users can adjust the angle of the conductive plate 11 via the angle adjustment component 2 to allow it to reach the socket opening, providing favorable conditions for power transmission. Next, a wire adjustment component 3 is installed through one side of the angle adjustment component 2. The wire of the power cord 12 is then wound around the wire adjustment component 3 to store and loosen the power cord 12, providing wire to the conductive plate 11 in real time, facilitating the use of the conductive plate 11 at different rotation angles.
[0026] It is worth noting that, in order to achieve the angle adjustment of the conductive plate 11, as follows... Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the angle adjustment assembly 2 can be fixed to the plug body 1 with a fixed plate 21, and then a rotating plate 22 is rotatably set at the end of the fixed plate 21. A drive shaft 23 is inserted through the middle of the rotating plate 22 and is distributed through the fixed plate 21. One end of the drive shaft 23 is fixedly connected to the conductive plate 11, and the other end of the drive shaft 23 is inserted through the plug body 1 and fixed with an adjustment plate 24. The adjustment plate 24 is set on the outside of the plug body 1. When the angle adjustment assembly 2 is in use, the external personnel can use the adjustment plate 24 to adjust the tilt angle of the conductive plate 11 on the plug body 1. The outer side of the adjustment plate 24 can be provided with a slot. By bending the adjustment plate 24 through the slot, the conductive plate 11 can be rotated to adjust its tilt angle. When the connector is de-energized, the user can also bend the conductive plate 11 to adjust its angle, which is beneficial for the rotation adjustment of the plug.
[0027] In some embodiments, such as Figure 3 As shown, in order to better achieve stable rotation of the fixed disk 21 and the rotating disk 22, the conductive plate 11 is set on the outside of the plug body 1. Several toothed blocks 211 are set on the opposite side of the fixed disk 21 and the rotating disk 22. The several toothed blocks 211 are distributed in a ring on the fixed disk 21 or the rotating disk 22. The fixed disk 21 and the rotating disk 22 can be engaged with each other by the several toothed blocks 211. When the rotating disk 22 is rotated by the drive shaft 23, the several toothed blocks 211 on the rotating disk 22 rotate using the arc-shaped part 212 set on the outer end of the toothed block 211. In order to facilitate the rotation of the rotating disk 22, the toothed blocks 211 can be made of rubber material. The elastic compression of the two sets of toothed blocks 211 facilitates the rotation of the rotating disk 22.
[0028] In some embodiments, when the conductive plate 11 rotates, the power cord 12 connected to the conductive plate 11 can use the movable seat 25 through the outer side of the drive shaft 23. The bushing 251 rotatably disposed in the movable seat 25 provides favorable conditions for the power cord 12 to be used as the conductive plate 11 rotates. Furthermore, the power cord 12 passes through the bushing 251 and the drive shaft 23. The power cord 12 rotates with the bushing 251 movably disposed on the movable seat 25, which facilitates the rotation of the power cord 12. After the external user rotates the power cord 12 one revolution, the power cord 12 wound on the drive shaft 23 can be loosened by rotating the direction, which facilitates the rotation of the conductive plate 11 again.
[0029] It is worth noting that, in order to facilitate the rotation of the conductive plate 11, a wire adjustment component 3 is used to protect the power cord 12, such as... Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the cable adjustment component 3 includes an insulating box 31 that is connected through to the angle adjustment component 2. A take-up shaft 32 is rotatably arranged within the insulating box 31 as the take-up end of the power cable 12. A spring disc 33 connected to the power cable 12 is then arranged on one side of the take-up shaft 32. The spring disc 33 is wound around the take-up shaft 32, and the power cable 12 is wound around the take-up shaft 32 by the spring disc 33. The portion of the power cable 12 connected to the spring disc 33 is elastic, wherein the adjustment... The plate 24 can be marked with forward and reverse directions to facilitate the rotation of the plug. When the power cord 12 is pulled from the winding shaft 32 by an external force, it can be pulled out from the winding shaft 32, providing favorable conditions for the angular rotation of the conductive plate 11. Then, through the meshing friction between the meshing blocks 211, the pulled-out power cord 12 can be limited. When the conductive plate 11 rotates in the opposite direction, the spring plate 33 resets and pulls the power cord 12 to wind around the drive shaft 23 for winding, providing favorable conditions for the rotation of the conductive plate 11 again.
[0030] Furthermore, limit blocks 331 can be provided at both ends of the spring disc 33. The limit blocks 331 are U-shaped. One limit block 331 is fixed to the winding shaft 32, and the other limit block 331 is engaged with the power cord 12. The limit blocks 331 can be made of rubber material. The insulating characteristics and elasticity of rubber can be used to reduce the friction between the spring disc 33 and the power cord 12, thereby protecting the power cord 12 and preventing it from short-circuiting.
[0031] Furthermore, such as Figure 2 As shown, in some embodiments, a rotatable structure can be provided between the conveyor line 13 and the plug. First, a hinge seat 41 is provided on the side of the plug body 1 near the conveyor line 13. Then, an elastic bolt 42 is provided through the conveyor line 13 and the hinge seat 41. The diameters of both ends of the elastic bolt 42 are larger than those of the hinge seat 41. The power line 12 in the plug is not connected to the hinge seat 41 and the elastic bolt 42. By providing the same semi-enclosure 43 between the plug body 1 and the conveyor line 13, the gap between the plug body 1 and the conveyor line 13 is sealed, thus protecting the power line 12 and the conveyor line 13. This provides favorable conditions for the rotation of the plug and the conveyor line 13. When the plug 1 and the conveyor line 13 are rotated at an angle, the plug can be directly bent to rotate. The angle of use of the plug 1 can be adjusted by the rotation of the elastic bolt 42 on the hinge seat 41. The sealing treatment of the power line 12 and the conveyor line 13 by the semi-enclosure 43 protects the ends of the connector wires, increases the practicality of the connector, and improves the ease of rotation of the plug.
[0032] Of course, the above description is the preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements and modifications are also considered to be within the protection scope of this utility model.
