The quality of the high-voltage terminals also affects the conductivity and compatibility of the high-voltage lines. Currently, the high-voltage terminals used in new energy vehicles are generally copper terminals, i.e., tin-plated copper terminals. These terminals have low impurity content and low resistivity, making them suitable for high-current transmission environments.

[0023] 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.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-5This utility model provides the following technical solution: a new energy high-voltage copper terminal inspection fixture, including a fixture table 1, a stud 2 inserted into the surface of the fixture table 1, a limiting groove 3 formed on the bottom surface of the stud 2, a limiting ring 4 fitted into the surface of the limiting groove 3, connecting frames 5 connected to both sides of the surface of the limiting ring 4, a first spring 6 connected to the surface of the connecting frame 5, the other side of the first spring 6 connected to the surface of the fixing ring 7, the adjusting groove surface of the inner wall of the fixture table 1 connected to the fixing ring 7, the inner wall surface of the fixing ring 7 movably sleeved on the surface of the limiting rod 8, a scale 9 installed on the top of the fixture table 1, the top surface of the scale 9 movably abutting against the indicating arrow 10, the other side of the scale 9 connected to both sides of the top of the adjusting plate 11, a slider 12 connected to the surface of the adjusting plate 11, a second spring 13 connected to the surface of the slider 12, the other side of the second spring 13 connected to the sliding groove surface of the inner wall of the fixture table 1, and a sliding rod 14 connected to the sliding groove surface of the inner wall of the fixture table 1.

[0025] Preferably, the limiting ring 4 is an integral structure with a semi-circular inner wall connecting to a crossbar, and the shape and size of the two sets of limiting rings 4 are adapted to the limiting groove 3 when they are mirror images of each other.

[0026] In practical use, when the stud 2 is inserted downwards, the circular through groove on the bottom limiting groove 3 should be horizontally downwards. When the limiting ring 4 springs back to its original position, the orientation of the upper limiting groove 3 of the stud 2 can be finely adjusted so that the limiting rings 4 on both sides can be accurately inserted and sleeved on the limiting groove 3, thereby clamping and fixing the position of the stud 2.

[0027] Preferably, the tooling table 1 has an elastic groove at its bottom, the shape and size of which are adapted to the connecting frame 5, and the connecting frame 5 is a C-shaped integrated structure.

[0028] In actual use, push the two sets of connecting brackets 5 that are elastically connected to the tooling table 1 to both sides with one hand, so that the open ends of the limit rings 4 that are abutting each other separate.

[0029] Preferably, the surface of the fixing ring 7 has a circular through groove, the shape and size of which are adapted to the limiting rod 8, and the connecting frame 5, the first spring 6 and the fixing ring 7 form an elastic connection structure.

[0030] In actual use, the limiting rod 8 connected to the connecting frame 5 slides on the inner wall of the fixing ring 7 to guide and limit the movement of the connecting frame 5 until the lateral end of the limiting ring 4 connected to the connecting frame 5 is inserted into the inner wall of the stud 2.

[0031] Preferably, the two sets of indicator arrows 10 are symmetrically distributed on both sides of the top of the adjustment plate 11.

[0032] In practical use, the indicator arrows 10 on both sides of the top of the adjustment plate 11 are slid on the scale 9 to detect the size of the copper terminal placed on the tooling table 1, and the precise pointing of the indicator arrows 10 makes it convenient for the inspector to read the detection data of the copper terminal.

[0033] Preferably, the tooling table 1, slider 12, second spring 13 and slide rod 14 form an elastic connection structure.

[0034] In practical use, after one test is completed, the copper terminal placed on the tooling table 1 is removed, so that the adjusting plate 11, which is moved away from the stud 2 by the copper terminal, rebounds and resets on the slide rod 14 under the action of the sliders 12 on both sides and the second spring 13 connected thereto, so as to facilitate the next copper terminal size test.

[0035] Working principle: In the production process of new energy high-voltage copper terminals, select a stud 2 of appropriate size according to the model of the wire-pressing hole of the copper terminal to be produced. Then, lift the tooling table 1 with one hand and push the two sets of connecting brackets 5 elastically connected to the tooling table 1 to both sides with the other hand, so that the opening end of the limit ring 4 that is abutting together separates. Then, insert the selected end of the tooling table 1 with the limit groove 3 into the circular groove opened at the top of the tooling table 1 until the stud 2 is inserted into the circular groove and abuts against the inner wall of the tooling table 1. Then, release the connecting brackets 5 that are pulled to both sides, so that the connecting brackets 5 are elastically connected by the first spring. 6 moves towards stud 2 under the rebound, while the limiting rod 8 connected to the connecting frame 5 slides on the inner wall of the fixing ring 7 to guide and limit the movement of the connecting frame 5 until the lateral end of the limiting ring 4 connected to the connecting frame 5 is inserted into the inner wall of the stud 2. During this operation, it should be noted that when the stud 2 is inserted downward, the circular through groove on the bottom limiting groove 3 should be horizontally downward. When the limiting ring 4 rebounds and resets, the orientation of the upper limiting groove 3 of the stud 2 can be finely adjusted so that the limiting rings 4 on both sides are accurately inserted and sleeved on the limiting groove 3, thereby clamping and fixing the position of the stud 2.

[0036] At this time, the copper terminals to be tested are picked up in sequence, and the wire pressing holes on their surfaces are used to fit onto the surface of the stud 2. At the same time, the other side of the copper terminal abuts against the surface of the adjusting plate 11. The sliders 12 connected to both sides of the adjusting plate 11 slide on the slide rod 14, and the indicator arrows 10 on both sides of the top of the adjusting plate 11 slide on the scale 9. The size of the copper terminal placed on the tooling table 1 is then tested. The precise pointing of the indicator arrows 10 makes it easy for the tester to read the test data of the copper terminal, avoiding numerical deviations caused by direct visual estimation. In this design scheme, the first spring 6 and the second spring 13 are cylindrical compression springs made of silicon manganese spring steel. The design of their wire diameter, number of turns, and free length meets the clamping force requirements of the stud 2 and the copper terminal, satisfying the requirement of "appropriate clamping force". It can provide stable clamping force (avoiding deformation or loosening) and ensure durability for tens of thousands of spring adjustment through fatigue-resistant materials and reasonable compression, which is suitable for the use scenario of copper terminal testing tooling.

[0037] Finally, it should be noted that the above are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and are not intended to limit the utility model. Although the utility model 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 this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model.
