Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of energy storage cabinet component manufacturing technology, specifically to a dual-hole tapping device for high-precision multi-narrow cavity aluminum alloy components for energy storage. Background Technology
[0002] An energy storage cabinet is a device specifically designed to store electrical energy, widely used for providing backup power and stabilizing grid voltage. It typically consists of battery packs, converters, and control chips. Its main function is to store electrical energy when power supply is sufficient and release it during peak demand or when power is insufficient. It can suppress load fluctuations, regulate frequency and voltage, and improve the power factor. This balances grid supply and demand, improves the stability and efficiency of the power system, making it a key component of modern energy systems.
[0003] The interior of the energy storage cabinet is mostly used to house battery cells. Multiple battery cells are neatly arranged to form an array for encapsulation. The battery array is supported and separated by spacers below and to the sides, creating several narrow cavities within the cabinet. These narrow cavities between the battery arrays are used for heat dissipation. Therefore, the spacers are a large component and a crucial part of the energy storage cabinet. To reduce the overall weight of the cabinet, the spacers are typically made of aluminum profiles. The mounting holes at both ends of the spacers are threaded and tapped before assembly with other components. Conventional machining methods include: 1. Using a standard bench drill and tapping taps, manually rotating the drill to tap the through holes at both ends; 2. Alternatively, using a machining center with programmed long-stroke feed to tap both ends of the workpiece. The first method is labor-intensive and inefficient; the second method involves a long feed process and is also time-consuming. Summary of the Invention
[0004] To address the aforementioned issues, this utility model provides a high-precision, multi-narrow-cavity aluminum alloy component dual-hole tapping device with energy storage. The device features a movable clamping fixture mounted on the worktable, matched with a double-ended tap drill, enabling rapid tapping of long aluminum workpieces. It offers quick and convenient feeding and unloading, and high safety.
[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:
[0006] A high-precision, multi-narrow-cavity aluminum alloy component dual-hole tapping device for energy storage includes a worktable fixedly connected to a base plate. A feed cylinder is installed in the middle of the base plate. The piston rod end of the feed cylinder is connected to a sliding plate via a connecting plate. The sliding plate is slidably connected to a slide rail via several sliders. The slide rail is installed at both ends of the base plate. A clamping fixture is set on the sliding plate to clamp the workpiece. Multiple vertically fed tapping drill bits are set above the workpiece.
[0007] When the feed cylinder pushes the sliding plate towards the operator's side, it is in the loading / unloading state; when the feed cylinder pushes the sliding plate towards the tapping drill bit's side, it is in the machining state; the slide rail serves as a guide.
[0008] The clamping fixture includes several clamping cylinders mounted on the side of the workpiece, and corresponding positioning blocks. After the clamping cylinders clamp, the workpiece is laterally clamped and positioned.
[0009] The clamping fixture includes a clamping cylinder installed at one end of the workpiece and a positioning block at the other end. After the clamping cylinder clamps, the workpiece is clamped and positioned.
[0010] Limiting grooves are installed at both ends of the sliding plate. The openings of the limiting grooves face downwards, and their operating ends are closed. Limiting blocks are set at matching positions at both ends of the base plate and embedded in the limiting grooves.
[0011] The function of the limiting groove and the limiting block is to position the sliding plate at its limit position to prevent it from sliding out of the range, so that the tapping drill bit can accurately position the machining hole and achieve precise tapping.
[0012] Control knob A and control knob B are installed on the operating side of the base plate. Control knob A controls the feed of the feed cylinder through a solenoid valve, and control knob B controls the feed of the clamping cylinder and the clamping cylinder through a solenoid valve.
[0013] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:
[0014] 1. This utility model is specifically designed for tapping the end holes of high-precision multi-narrow cavity aluminum alloy spacer workpieces in dynamic energy storage cabinets, which greatly improves the workpiece processing efficiency.
[0015] 2. This utility model has a compact structure and the positioning components are reasonably positioned.
[0016] 3. This utility model has very low technical requirements for operators; any operator can start working after only simple training. Attached Figure Description
