Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model mainly relates to the field of new energy supercapacitor module processing technology, specifically a supercapacitor module bracket. Background Technology
[0002] In the operation of the State Grid, a supercapacitor module is required. This module is mainly composed of a support frame, connecting pieces, terminal connecting pieces, supercapacitor cells, negative terminal, and positive terminal.
[0003] In the manufacturing process of supercapacitor modules, the support frame plays a crucial role in fixing and limiting the various components inside the module. It ensures that the components maintain a stable relative position during processing, providing reliable support for subsequent assembly and welding processes. Traditional support frames are made of FR4 material and machined by a machining center, resulting in high material and processing costs. Furthermore, since this support frame does not position the supercapacitor cells or connecting pieces, nor does it surround and constrain the positive and negative terminals of the supercapacitor cells, it is not necessary to transfer the support frame with the module to the laser welding production line. This leaves the module in a semi-loose state, causing inconsistent distances between the supercapacitor cells when welding the connecting pieces. As a result, laser automatic welding cannot complete the welding of all connecting pieces on one side of the module in one go, requiring multiple re-welding operations, leading to low welding efficiency and quality. Moreover, since the support frame lacks wire clamps, after the cable OT ring is riveted, all cables must be fixed segment by segment with tape, which is time-consuming, labor-intensive, and inefficient. Utility Model Content
[0004] This utility model provides a solution that addresses the problem of overly simplistic existing technical solutions. It offers a significantly different approach, primarily providing a supercapacitor module bracket. This bracket addresses the issues raised in the background section regarding traditional brackets, which are manufactured using FR4 material in a machining center, resulting in high material and processing costs. Furthermore, the lack of positioning for the supercapacitor cells and connecting pieces, as well as the absence of enclosure and constraint for the positive and negative ends of the cells, means the module is not required to enter the laser welding production line with the module, leading to a semi-loose module, inconsistent spacing between cells during welding, and the need for multiple re-welding operations during automatic laser welding, resulting in low efficiency and quality. Additionally, the absence of a cable clamping structure necessitates the use of tape to fix the cables section by section after the OT rings are riveted, wasting manpower and resources and causing low efficiency.
[0005] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows:
[0006] A supercapacitor module bracket includes a bracket body, a terminal connecting piece, a supercapacitor cell, a negative terminal, and a positive terminal. The bracket body has a connecting piece groove, and the bottom of the connecting piece groove has a positioning post for positioning each connecting piece. Both sides of the connecting piece groove have connecting piece buckles to prevent the connecting pieces from falling off. The bracket body is equipped with a removable stop block. The terminal connecting piece is used to connect the supercapacitor cell to the negative terminal or the positive terminal.
[0007] More preferably, the bracket body is provided with multiple cable clips for fixing cables.
[0008] More preferably, the connection between the support body and the removable block is provided with a reserved hole boundary line. The boundary line is set along the connection edge of the two to form a structural boundary that is easy to separate under force, so that after the removable block is disassembled, the positive terminal and a negative terminal of the module can be led out.
[0009] More preferably, the support body is provided with several reinforcing ribs to enhance the overall strength of the support.
[0010] More preferably, the outer surface of the support body is provided with "+" polarity symbols and "-" polarity symbols respectively.
[0011] More preferably, the support body is provided with multiple annular barriers, the diameter of which matches the outer diameter of the supercapacitor cell, and plays a positioning role during the assembly of the module.
[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:
[0013] The supercapacitor module bracket is manufactured using a one-piece injection molding process with a plastic mold. Compared to brackets made of FR4 material and machined by a machining center, this reduces material costs and molding process, thus lowering bracket manufacturing costs. During the welding of the connecting pieces, the module is fastened and constrained by the upper and lower brackets, resulting in high consistency in the spacing and height between every two units in the module, which improves the efficiency of laser automatic welding. Furthermore, the bracket is equipped with cable clips. After riveting all the cable OT rings to the connecting pieces, the cables can be pushed into the cable clips one by one, further improving production efficiency.

However, the utility model can be implemented in different forms and is not limited to the embodiments described in the text. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided to make the disclosure of the utility model more thorough and comprehensive.

When an element is referred to as being "connected to" another element, it can be directly connected to the other element or there may be an intervening element.

[0028] Please refer to the appendix carefully. Figure 1-9A supercapacitor module support includes a support body 1, electrode connecting pieces 3, supercapacitor cells 4, negative electrode 5, and positive electrode 6. The support body 1 has a connecting piece groove 102, and the bottom of the connecting piece groove 102 is provided with a positioning post 101 for positioning each connecting piece 2. Both sides of the connecting piece groove 102 are provided with connecting piece buckles 104 to prevent the connecting pieces 2 from falling off. The support body 1 is equipped with a removable stop block 105. The electrode connecting pieces 3 are attached to the connecting piece groove 102 and have a first connecting end and a second connecting end. The first connecting end is electrically connected to the electrode of the supercapacitor cell 4, and the second connecting end is correspondingly connected to the negative electrode 5 or the positive electrode 6 to realize the electrical conduction between the supercapacitor cell 4 and the corresponding electrode.
[0029] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 5 and Figure 7 As shown, the bracket body 1 is provided with multiple cable clips 103. The cable clips 103 are distributed at intervals along the cable 7 laying path of the bracket body 1. The cable 7 can be directly inserted into the cable clips 103. With this design, there is no need to use additional auxiliary fixing parts such as cable ties and tape when laying signal cables 7, which simplifies the operation process.
[0030] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 and Figure 9 As shown, the connection between the bracket body 1 and the removable stop block 105 is provided with a reserved hole boundary line 10501. This boundary line is set along the connection edge of the two to form a structural boundary that is easy to separate under force. When not needed, it can be directly pried off by hand. Since two supercapacitor module brackets are required in this example, that is, there is one bracket at the bottom and one at the top of the module, and these two brackets are interchangeable, the reserved hole can be realized by prying off the removable stop block 105 in the upper bracket of the module. It can be used to lead out a positive terminal 6 and a negative terminal 5 at the top of the module.
[0031] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the main body 1 of the support is provided with several reinforcing ribs 108. In the supercapacitor module, when there are a large number of supercapacitors used, and the capacity and weight are large, by setting a certain number of reinforcing ribs 108 on the support, the supercapacitor module support has a certain strength and improves the stability during use.
[0032] In this embodiment, as Figure 2 As shown, the outer surface of the bracket body 1 is provided with "+" symbol 106 and "-" symbol 107 respectively. When used at the lower end of the supercapacitor module, they are used to determine the installation direction of the supercapacitor, and when used at the upper end of the supercapacitor module, they are used to determine the lead-out direction of the positive terminal 6 and the negative terminal 5.
[0033] In this embodiment, as Figure 1 and Figure 3 As shown, the main body 1 of the support is provided with multiple annular barriers 109, the diameter of which matches the outer diameter of the supercapacitor cell 4. These barriers play a positioning role during the assembly of the module, can surround and constrain the positive and negative ends of the supercapacitor cell 4, and can also increase the rigidity of the support.
[0034] The specific operating procedure of this utility model is as follows: The bracket body 1, connecting plate groove 102, cable clip 103, connecting plate clip 104, removable stop block 105, reserved hole boundary line 10501, "+" pole symbol 106, "-" pole symbol 107, reinforcing rib 108 and enclosure 109 constitute the bracket of the supercapacitor module. It is a flame-retardant and insulating plastic part, which is integrally injection molded by plastic mold (the bracket can be made of flame-retardant and insulating materials such as LCP and PP).
[0035] The main body 1 serves as the core load-bearing structure. The connecting plate slot 102 on it provides installation space for the connecting plates 2. The positioning post 101 at the bottom of the connecting plate slot 102 can accurately position each connecting plate 2 to ensure accurate installation. The connecting plate buckles 104 on both sides can firmly lock the connecting plates 2 to prevent them from falling off during use. The pole connecting plate 3 on the connecting plate 2 is used to connect with the negative pole 5 and the positive pole 6, thereby establishing a circuit path between the supercapacitor cells 4.
[0036] Multiple cable clips 103 are spaced along the cable 7 laying path on the main body 1 of the bracket, so that the cable 7 can be directly inserted into these clips to be fixed without relying on cable ties, tape or other auxiliary parts. This simplifies the cable 7 laying operation and ensures that the cable 7 is neatly arranged, avoiding mess and interference.
[0037] The removable stop block 105 assembled on the bracket body 1 can be easily disassembled and assembled through the reserved hole boundary line 10501 of the connection part. Since the supercapacitor module requires a universal bracket body 1 at both the top and bottom, when used as the upper bracket, the removable stop block 105 can be flipped down to form a reserved hole, which is convenient for leading out the positive terminal 6 and the negative terminal 5, and meets the external extension requirements of the module circuit connection.
[0038] Meanwhile, several reinforcing ribs 108 on the main body 1 enhance the structural strength of the support. Even with a large number of supercapacitor cells 4, large capacity, and heavy weight, these ribs effectively resist deformation, ensuring the structural stability of the entire module. Furthermore, the "+" symbol 106 and "-" symbol 107 on the outer surface of the main body 1 provide clear guidance for the installation direction of the supercapacitor cells 4 and the lead-out directions of the positive terminal 6 and negative terminal 5, ensuring accurate assembly.
[0039] In addition, the multiple annular barriers 109 on the main body of the support have diameters that match the outer diameter of the supercapacitor cell 4. They play a role in positioning and guiding the positive and negative ends of the supercapacitor cell 4 during module assembly, while further enhancing the overall rigidity of the support.
[0040] The present invention has been described above by way of example in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the specific implementation of the present invention is not limited to the above-described manner. Any non-substantial improvement made by adopting the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention, or the direct application of the inventive concept and technical solution of the present invention to other occasions without modification, shall be within the protection scope of the present invention.
