Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of lead-acid battery technology, specifically relating to a tooling for quickly confirming the consistency of electrolyte level in a battery. Background Technology

[0002] Lead-acid batteries require an acid addition process before charging and formation. Currently, this is done using a quantitative acid adder, which only controls the amount of acid added. After adding acid, it's impossible to quickly and accurately confirm the consistency of the electrolyte level in all six cells. The electrolyte level significantly affects the electrolyte density and temperature during the formation process. Currently, visual inspection is used to confirm the consistency of the electrolyte level in the six cells. This control method has a large margin of error, resulting in poor consistency in formation and ultimately affecting battery performance.

[0003] If the electrolyte level in a lead-acid battery is too high after the first addition of acid, there is a risk of acid overflow during the formation and charging process, which can lead to a short circuit and fire in severe cases. If the electrolyte level is too low after the first addition of acid, insufficient acid will result in incomplete reaction at the plates, reduced formation efficiency, and decreased capacity and cycle life. Therefore, an accurate electrolyte level ensures consistent temperature and density during the formation process, guaranteeing its smooth progress.

[0004] The consistency of battery electrolyte level control is mainly reflected in the acid-adding process. Operators use visual inspection to control the electrolyte level consistency, adjusting it when it is too low or too high. However, visual inspection is affected by subjective judgment and visual error, leading to large deviations in the actual electrolyte level control. Therefore, the problem of accurately and quickly confirming the electrolyte level after acid addition needs to be solved. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem of inaccurate control of electrolyte level, thereby providing a tooling that can directly confirm the electrolyte level after adding acid to the battery during the production process, thus eliminating the problem of large control deviations.

[0006] The technical solution of this utility model is: a tooling for quickly confirming the consistency of electrolyte level in a storage battery, characterized in that: it is composed of a first triangular prism body and a second triangular prism body; wherein, the first triangular prism body and the second triangular prism body have a common edge, and the side of the first triangular prism body adjacent to the common edge of the second triangular prism body is located on the same plane, and the included angle between the other side of the first triangular prism body adjacent to the common edge of the second triangular prism body and the other side of the common edge of the second triangular prism body is consistent with the included angle between the side surface and the bottom surface of the storage battery.

[0007] In the technical solution of this utility model, the included angle between the other face adjacent to the common edge of the first triangular prism and the other face adjacent to the common edge of the second triangular prism is 90°.

[0008] In the technical solution of this utility model, the first triangular prism body and the second triangular prism body have the same edge length.

[0009] In the technical solution of this utility model, the cross-sections of the first triangular prism body and the second triangular prism body are both right-angled triangles.

[0010] In the technical solution of this utility model, the right angle between the first triangular prism body and the second triangular prism body is located between one face and the third face of the triangular prism body.

[0011] In the technical solution of this utility model, the height of the first triangular prism body is higher than the height of the battery, and the length of the prism is greater than the length of the battery.

[0012] In the technical solution of this utility model, the angle between the adjacent face and the other face of the common edge of the first triangular prism body is 55-65°; the angle between the adjacent face and the other face of the common edge of the second triangular prism body is 35-25°.

[0013] In the technical solution of this utility model, the angle between the adjacent face and the other face of the common edge of the first triangular prism body is 60°; the angle between the adjacent face and the other face of the common edge of the second triangular prism body is 30°.

[0014] In the technical solution of this utility model, the edge length of the first triangular prism body and the second triangular prism body is 400 mm, the height of the first triangular prism body is 200 mm, and the height of the second triangular prism body is 100 mm.

[0015] In the technical solution of this utility model, the first triangular prism body and the second triangular prism body are made of polypropylene.

[0016] This invention employs a fixture for quickly confirming the consistency of electrolyte level in a lead-acid battery, consisting of a first triangular prism body and a second triangular prism body. The first and second triangular prism bodies share a common edge, and the adjacent faces of the first and second triangular prism bodies are on the same plane. The angle between the other adjacent faces of the first and second triangular prism bodies is the same as the angle between the side and bottom surfaces of the battery. Therefore, after adding acid to the lead-acid battery, the battery is tilted and placed on the electrolyte level detection fixture, with one side of the injection hole attached to the platform of the first triangular prism body and the bottom of the battery attached to the platform of the second triangular prism body. At this tilted angle, the electrolyte level overflows to the upper surface of the injection hole, allowing observation of the consistency of the electrolyte level in six individual cells. Adjustments can be made to cells with excessively high or low levels to ensure the consistency of the electrolyte level during the formation process.

[0017] This invention features a simple structure, convenient use, and the ability to quickly and accurately detect the consistency of electrolyte level in the six cells of a storage battery after adding acid. It is mainly used to confirm and adjust the consistency of electrolyte level after adding acid to a storage battery, ensuring consistency in the formation process and battery performance.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present invention is a tooling for quickly detecting and confirming the consistency of electrolyte level height after adding acid to a storage battery. It is composed of a first triangular prism body 1 and a second triangular prism body 2, and is used to confirm and adjust the consistency of electrolyte level height after adding acid to a storage battery 3.

[0023] The cross-sections of both the first triangular prism body 1 and the second triangular prism body 2 are right-angled triangles, i.e., both are right-angled triangular prism bodies. The edge length of the first triangular prism body 1 is 6, and the edge length of the second triangular prism body 2 is the same, both being 400 mm, which is greater than the length of the battery 3. The first triangular prism body 1 and the second triangular prism body 2 share a common edge, and the face adjacent to the common edge of the first triangular prism body 1 and the face adjacent to the common edge of the second triangular prism body 2 are located on the same plane, forming the bottom surface of the device. The included angle between the other face adjacent to the common edge of the first triangular prism body 1 and the other face adjacent to the common edge of the second triangular prism body 2 is 90°, which is consistent with the included angle between the side surface and the bottom surface of the battery 3, and is used to place the battery 3. The first triangular prism body 1 and the second triangular prism body 2 are made of polypropylene, which is lightweight and has high mechanical strength, making it easy to handle.

[0024] The angle between the common edge of the first triangular prism body 1 and the adjacent face of the second triangular prism body 2, i.e., the tilt angle 7 of the first triangular prism body 1, is 60°. The angle between the common edge of the second triangular prism body 2 and the adjacent face of the second triangular prism body 2, i.e., the tilt angle 9 of the second triangular prism body 2, is 30°. The first triangular prism body 1 and the second triangular prism body 2 are combined to form a tilting platform with a fixed angle.

[0025] The right angles of the first triangular prism body 1 and the second triangular prism body 2 are located on the outer side of their common edge, facing away from each other, that is, between one face and the third face of the triangular prism body. The height 5 of the first triangular prism body is 200 mm, which is higher than the height of the battery 3. The height 8 of the second triangular prism body is 100 mm, which is greater than the width of the bottom surface of the battery 3.

[0026] After the battery 3 is placed on the tilting platform, the tilt angle is 30°. After the battery 3 is filled with acid, the battery 3 is tilted and placed on the liquid level detection fixture. One side of the battery filling hole 4 is attached to the platform of the first triangular prism body 1, and the bottom of the battery 3 is attached to the platform of the second triangular prism body 2. At this time, the tilt angle of the battery 3 is 30°. The electrolyte level overflows to the upper surface of the battery filling hole 4. The consistency of the liquid level of the 6 individual cells can be observed, and the cells with excessively high or low liquid levels can be adjusted.

[0027] With a fixed tilt angle of 30°, it is stable and accurate, detecting a difference of less than 1mm in the height of the electrolyte level in 6 compartments. This eliminates the operator's visual error problem and makes it easier to quickly and clearly confirm the consistency of the electrolyte level height after adding acid.

[0028] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
