Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of welding positioning devices, and in particular to a welding positioning device for explosion-proof valves of battery covers. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, in the welding process of explosion-proof valves for battery covers, the traditional method for positioning explosion-proof valves is vacuum adsorption. This positioning method uses a vacuum pump to remove the air between the explosion-proof valve and the adsorption device, creating a negative pressure environment, thereby adsorbing and fixing the explosion-proof valve above the explosion-proof valve hole on the battery cover to achieve initial positioning.
[0003] However, traditional vacuum adsorption positioning devices have a significant technical deficiency: the lack of an effective monitoring mechanism for the explosion-proof valve. In actual production, various factors, such as dimensional tolerances of the battery cover or the explosion-proof valve itself, precision errors in the production equipment, and vibrations during the feeding process, can cause the explosion-proof valve to fail to be accurately installed into the explosion-proof valve hole on the battery cover. Once this occurs, a gap will form between the explosion-proof valve and the explosion-proof valve hole.
[0004] The presence of such gaps significantly reduces the positioning effectiveness of the explosion-proof valve during welding. From a welding quality perspective, gaps lead to uneven heat distribution during welding, affecting weld strength and sealing, resulting in problems such as incomplete welds and leaks, thus reducing the overall safety of the battery. Moreover, the presence of gaps may prevent the explosion-proof valve from properly relieving pressure when the internal pressure of the battery changes, and may even trigger serious safety accidents such as thermal runaway or explosion.
[0005] Therefore, this application provides a welding positioning device for the explosion-proof valve of the battery cover. Utility Model Content

Thus, features defined with "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of the stated features. In the description of this application, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.
[0026] The following detailed description of some embodiments of this application is provided in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Unless otherwise specified, the following embodiments and features can be combined with each other.
[0027] like Figures 1 to 5 As shown, this application provides a welding positioning device for a battery cover explosion-proof valve, comprising:
[0028] The welding positioning device 100 includes a frame 10, a support base 20, an auxiliary positioning mechanism 40, and a control panel 11. The support base 20 is located on one side of the upper surface of the frame 10, and the auxiliary positioning mechanism 40 is located on the other side of the upper surface of the frame 10. The control panel 11 is fixedly installed on the front outer wall of the frame 10 by bolts. The detection positioning mechanism 30 is located inside the support base 20 and includes a vacuum pump 31 fixedly installed on one side of the outer wall of the support base 20 and a cylinder 32 fixedly installed inside the support base 20. An air distribution pipe 33 is fixedly installed at the end of the output shaft of the cylinder 32. Multiple lifting rods 34 are fixedly installed on the upper surface of the air distribution pipe 33. The multiple lifting rods 34 penetrate the interior of the support base 20 and protrude from the upper surface of the support base 20. An array of pressure sensors 35 are fixedly installed on the top of the multiple lifting rods 34. Multiple air holes 36 are provided on the outer wall of the upper end of the lifting rods 34. One side of the air distribution pipe 33 is connected to the output end of the vacuum pump 31 through a hose.
[0029] After adopting the above technical solution, the battery cover is placed by setting the support base 20 and positioned by the auxiliary positioning mechanism 40. Before welding the explosion-proof valve, the position of the explosion-proof valve is detected by the detection positioning mechanism 30 to prevent the explosion-proof valve from being inaccurately positioned, which would lead to a decrease in welding strength. At the same time, after the detection is completed, the explosion-proof valve is positioned by the detection positioning mechanism 30, thereby improving the accuracy and strength of the explosion-proof valve after welding the battery cover.
[0030] It should be noted that when the battery cover containing the explosion-proof valve is placed on the upper surface of the placement slot 21, the retraction of cylinder 41 causes the pressure plate 42 to move downward, thereby positioning the battery cover. Then, cylinder 32 operates to lift the air distribution pipe 33 upward. As the air distribution pipe 33 rises, the lifting rod 34 on its outer wall moves upward along its trajectory. During the upward movement of the lifting rod 34, the array-type pressure sensor 35 at its upper end enters from the bottom of the explosion-proof valve mounting hole on the battery cover and continues to move upward until it contacts the lower wall of the explosion-proof valve. If the explosion-proof valve and the battery cover are not accurately installed, the lower wall of the explosion-proof valve will tilt. In this case, the array-type pressure sensor 35 will... Only a small portion of the upper surface of the sensor 35 contacts the lower wall of the explosion-proof valve. The detected electrical signal is transmitted to the control panel 11 via the array pressure sensor 35. The control panel 11 then issues an alarm, allowing staff to quickly detect and adjust the explosion-proof valve. If the explosion-proof valve and battery cover are properly installed, the lower wall of the explosion-proof valve will be completely in contact with the upper wall of the array pressure sensor 35. The detected electrical signal is transmitted to the control panel 11 via the array pressure sensor 35. The control panel 11 then drives the vacuum pump 31 to operate. When the vacuum pump 31 operates, it evacuates the air from the installation hole of the explosion-proof valve through the air vent 36, thereby positioning the explosion-proof valve.
[0031] In one optional embodiment, the upper surface of the support base 20 is provided with a plurality of placement slots 21, and the upper surface of the placement slots 21 is provided with a plurality of through holes adapted to the lifting rod 34, and the center of the through hole is coaxially arranged with the center of the battery cover explosion-proof valve mounting hole, so as to place a plurality of battery covers.
[0032] In an optional embodiment, a sealing ring 22 is provided at the connection between the inner wall of the placement groove 21 and the lifting rod 34 to improve the sealing performance.
[0033] In an optional embodiment, the auxiliary positioning mechanism 40 includes a second cylinder 41 fixedly mounted on one side of the upper surface of the frame 10. A pressure plate 42 is fixedly mounted on one side of the output shaft end of the second cylinder 41. The pressure plate 42 moves downward by the contraction of the second cylinder 41, thereby positioning the battery cover.
[0034] In one optional embodiment, guide rails 23 are fixedly installed on both the left and right sides inside the support base 20. Guide blocks 24 are slidably connected inside the two guide rails 23. The two ends of the air distribution pipe 33 are fixedly connected to the outer walls of the two guide blocks 24 respectively. By setting the guide rails 23 and guide blocks 24, the air distribution pipe 33 always moves up and down along a straight line, thereby improving the accuracy of the equipment.
[0035] In one alternative implementation, the radius of the array pressure sensor 35 is smaller than the radius of the battery cover explosion-proof valve mounting hole, and the radius of the sealing ring 22 is larger than the radius of the battery cover explosion-proof valve mounting hole. The array pressure sensor 35 can easily enter the battery cover explosion-proof valve mounting hole, while the sealing ring 22 can provide a seal to the bottom of the battery cover explosion-proof valve mounting hole.
[0036] In one optional embodiment, the control panel 11 is provided with control buttons, a display screen and a speaker on the outside, and a control circuit board and a battery are provided inside the control panel 11. The control panel 11 is electrically connected to the vacuum pump 31, cylinder 32 and cylinder 41. The control panel 11 controls the start and stop of the vacuum pump 31, cylinder 32 and cylinder 41, thereby automatically detecting and positioning.
