Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of battery testing technology, and in particular to a multifunctional battery testing module. Background Technology

[0002] With the widespread use of portable smart appliances such as cordless vacuum cleaners, the functional testing of replaceable battery modules, one of their core components, before they leave the factory is particularly important. To ensure the power supply capacity, safety performance, and indicator functions of the battery module during use, comprehensive testing of its electrical performance parameters, program control logic, and indicator light status is usually required at the factory.

[0003] In existing technologies, to perform the above-mentioned tests, the battery module is typically placed on a test platform manually, and operations such as power supply connection, signal connection, program burning, indicator light detection, voltage and current acquisition, and battery storage capacity testing are performed. The structural units on which each test item depends are usually set up separately, relying on manual connection and switching, which results in low testing efficiency and certain human error and poor contact problems.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need to provide a battery module testing carrier module with high structural integration, clearly defined testing functions, and compact layout, so as to realize the testing of multiple functions of battery modules and improve the efficiency of multi-functional battery testing. Utility Model Content

[0005] To improve the efficiency of multi-functional battery testing while enabling testing of multiple functions of a battery module, this application provides a multi-functional battery testing module. The technical solution provided in this application is as follows:

[0006] A multi-functional battery testing module includes a top plate, a middle plate, and a bottom plate arranged sequentially from top to bottom. The top surface of the top plate is provided with a testing fixture, and the battery module is mounted on the testing fixture. The battery module has a power connector on one side of the charging port. The middle plate is provided with a connecting frame, and the connecting frame is provided with a communication probe, a program burning mechanism, and an indicator light testing mechanism. The communication probe, the program burning mechanism, and the indicator light testing mechanism are all located above the testing fixture.

[0007] In one specific implementation, the base plate is provided with a motor and a gantry frame, the gantry frame is mounted on the output end of the motor, the intermediate plate is provided with a clearance groove for the gantry frame to move, and the power supply connector is located on the top surface of the gantry frame and on one side of the test fixture.

[0008] In one specific implementation, a first cylinder is provided on the intermediate plate, the output end of the first cylinder is connected to the bottom end of the connecting frame, a second cylinder is connected to the top end of the connecting frame, the piston rod of the second cylinder is connected to the communication probe, and both the second cylinder and the communication probe are inclined.

[0009] In one specific implementation scheme, a third cylinder is vertically mounted on the connecting frame, the piston rod of the third cylinder is connected to a fixed plate, and the program burning mechanism and the indicator light testing mechanism are both mounted on the fixed plate.

[0010] In one specific implementation, the programming mechanism includes a programming probe, a spring probe, and a first mounting plate. The first mounting plate is fixedly connected to the fixed plate. The spring probe and the programming probe are both vertically arranged through the first mounting plate. The top end of the programming probe is used to connect to a programming device used with a battery multi-functional test module.

[0011] In one specific implementation scheme, the indicator light testing mechanism includes a second mounting plate, a photoresistor, and a light shield. The second mounting plate is fixedly connected to the fixing plate. The second mounting plate is vertically arranged, and the bottom end of the second mounting plate is connected to the photoresistor and the light shield respectively. The photoresistor is located inside the light shield.

[0012] In summary, the beneficial effects of this application include at least the following:

[0013] 1) By sequentially arranging power connectors, communication probes, program burning mechanisms, and indicator light testing mechanisms within the same test module, and coordinating with multiple sets of motors and cylinders, the sequential automatic execution of power supply, communication connection, program burning, and indicator light status detection is achieved. The compact layout and clear action connections between the functional modules avoid the inconvenience of multiple scattered test stations and the need for manual transfer of battery modules in traditional testing. This achieves integrated control and execution of the battery module testing process, significantly improving the level of automation.

[0014] 2) Precise docking is achieved through cylinder drive. For example, the communication probe is tilted to match the battery interface angle, and the combination of the programming probe and spring probe ensures reliable contact. The indicator light detection mechanism is equipped with a light shield and works in conjunction with a photoresistor to effectively avoid environmental interference. These structural optimizations make the testing process more stable and reliable, and the test data more consistent. This ensures that the battery modules leaving the factory have a unified and reproducible testing standard across different batches, which helps to improve the overall product quality control level.

[0015] Power is automatically supplied to the battery module via a motor-driven power connector. Multiple cylinders then sequentially drive the communication probe, programming probe, and photosensitive detection device to complete communication connection, program programming, and indicator light detection. The entire process is automated and executed sequentially. Through structural integration and coordinated action, this module achieves rapid and accurate testing of multiple battery module functions, avoiding the frequent connections and cumbersome procedures of traditional manual testing. This effectively improves testing efficiency and consistency, making it suitable for automated testing of battery modules before they leave the factory.

[0026] This application discloses a multi-functional battery testing module.

[0027] Reference Figure 1 The battery multi-functional test module includes a top plate 12, a middle plate 11, and a bottom plate 1 arranged sequentially from top to bottom. A test fixture 2 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the top plate 12, and a battery module 4 is mounted on the test fixture 2. A motor 13 and a gantry 15 are fixedly installed on the top surface of the bottom plate 1. The gantry 15 is located on the output end of the motor 13. A clearance groove 111 for the gantry 15 to move is provided on the middle plate 11. A power supply connector 3 is fixedly installed on the top surface of the gantry 15 and is located on one side of the test fixture 2. After the battery module 4 is placed on the test fixture 2, the motor 13 is started. The motor 13 drives the power supply connector 3 on the gantry 15 to move and supply power to the battery module 4.

[0028] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2A first cylinder 14 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the intermediate plate 11. The first cylinder 14 is horizontally positioned, and its output end is fixedly connected to a connecting frame 16. A second cylinder 17, positioned at an angle, and a third cylinder 18, positioned vertically, are fixedly connected to the top of the connecting frame 16. The piston rod of the second cylinder 17 is connected to an angled communication probe 5. The angled positioning of the communication probe 5 and the second cylinder 17 facilitates the connection of communication probe 5 to the battery module 4 after power is supplied, allowing the second cylinder 17 to be activated to insert the communication probe 5 into the battery module 4, thus establishing a communication connection. A fixing plate 19 is connected to the bottom end of the piston rod of the third cylinder 18. The fixing plate 19 is horizontally positioned and has a program burning mechanism 6 and an indicator light testing mechanism 7. Figure 3 The programming mechanism 6 includes a programming probe 61, a spring probe 62, and a first mounting plate 63. The first mounting plate 63 is fixedly connected to the fixed plate 19. Both the spring probe 62 and the programming probe 61 are vertically mounted through the first mounting plate 63. The top of the programming probe 61 is used to connect with a programming device used in conjunction with the battery multi-functional test module. Figure 4 The indicator light testing mechanism 7 includes a second mounting plate 71, a photoresistor 72, and a light shield 73. The second mounting plate 71 is fixedly connected to the fixing plate 19 and is vertically arranged. The bottom end of the second mounting plate 71 is connected to the photoresistor 72 and the light shield 73, respectively. The photoresistor 72 is located inside the light shield 73. After completing the communication operation of the battery module 4, the third cylinder 18 is activated to drive the photoresistor 72 and the programming probe 61 to perform indicator light brightness testing and program programming operations, respectively.

[0029] In summary, the power supply connector 3 is automatically connected to the battery module 4 via motor 13 to provide power. Multiple cylinders then sequentially drive the communication probe 5, the programming probe 61, and the photosensitive detection device to complete communication connection, program programming, and indicator light detection. The entire process is automated and executed sequentially. This module, through structural integration and coordinated action, achieves rapid and accurate testing of multiple functions of the battery module 4, avoiding the frequent connections and cumbersome steps of traditional manual testing. This effectively improves testing efficiency and consistency, making it suitable for automated testing of the battery module 4 before it leaves the factory.

[0030] The above are all preferred embodiments of this application, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this application. Therefore, all equivalent changes made in accordance with the structure, shape and principle of this application should be covered within the scope of protection of this application.
