Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of mechanical engineering technology, specifically a battery guiding device. Background Technology

[0002] In the forklift manufacturing process, the installation stability and efficiency of the battery directly affect the reliability of the equipment and production and maintenance costs. Currently, forklift batteries are typically positioned and secured by guide devices when installed into the chassis housing.

[0003] In existing technologies, guiding devices are mostly implemented by welding guide plates or bolting guide blocks. However, due to limitations in the welding process, the gap between the guide plate and the housing is small when welding guide plates, making it difficult to fully cover the weld area during subsequent painting. This can easily lead to incomplete paint application. After long-term use, unprotected weld areas are prone to rusting due to environmental corrosion. Furthermore, sand inclusions that may occur during welding can further weaken the strength and durability of the guiding device. While bolting guide blocks avoids the quality problems associated with welding, it requires manual tightening of the bolts on each guide block, which is not only cumbersome but also inefficient. In addition, bolted connections may loosen under vibration conditions, requiring regular maintenance and increasing operating costs.

[0004] Therefore, there is an urgent need for a battery guiding device that can improve battery installation efficiency and is easy to maintain. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a battery guiding device to solve the problems mentioned in the background art and to improve battery installation efficiency.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution:

[0007] A battery guiding device includes a vehicle frame housing and a bracket installed inside the vehicle frame housing. A limiting part is provided on the bottom side wall of the bracket, and the limiting part is engaged with a guide buckle. The guide buckle includes a vertically arranged first fixing plate, and the upper end of the first fixing plate extends a guide part for guiding and limiting battery installation. The guide part includes an abutment part, and the end of the abutment part extends a snap-fit ​​part that engages with the limiting part.

[0009] As a further embodiment of this utility model: In order to ensure that the snap-fit ​​part will not shift or loosen when snapped into the limiting part, the snap-fit ​​part includes a snap-fit ​​plate that snaps into the limiting part. The snap-fit ​​plate is perpendicular to the first fixing plate, and the end of the snap-fit ​​plate abuts against the first fixing plate. The snap-fit ​​plate extends downward to form a second limiting plate that fits against the first fixing plate. The shape of the second limiting plate matches that of the limiting part.

[0010] As a further embodiment of this utility model: in order to facilitate the guide buckle opening to guide the bracket into the bracket and perform auxiliary fixation, the end of the snap-fit ​​portion extends to a clamping portion, the clamping portion includes a second guide plate, the second guide plate extends downward to a third fixing plate, and the distance between the third fixing plate and the first fixing plate is the same as the thickness of the bottom side wall of the bracket.

[0011] As a further embodiment of this utility model: in order to facilitate the alignment of the opening of the guide buckle with the bracket, the length of the guide portion in the vertical direction is equal to the length of the first fixing plate.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-4 In this embodiment of the present invention, a battery guiding device includes a frame housing 1000 and a bracket 2000 installed inside the frame housing. The bracket 2000 has limiting portions 2100 on opposite sides of its bottom end for engaging guide buckles 3000. In this embodiment, there are two limiting portions 2100, each of which engages with a guide buckle 3000. The two guide buckles 3000 are arranged opposite each other, and the battery is fixed between the two guide buckles 3000. The limiting portions 2100 are configured as limiting holes.

[0027] The guide clip 3000 is made of spring steel, giving it sufficient elastic deformation capability to be installed on the bracket 2000. Please refer to... Figure 3The guide buckle 3000 includes a horizontally arranged reference plate 3100. A first fixing plate 3200 extends vertically downward from the first side of the reference plate 3100, and a guide portion 3300 extends vertically downward from the opposite second side of the reference plate 3100. The guide portion 3300 includes an abutment portion 3310, a snap-fit ​​portion 3320, and a clamping portion 3330. The abutment portion 3310 includes a second fixing plate 3311 perpendicular to the reference plate 3100. The distance between the first fixing plate 3200 and the second fixing plate 3311 is the same as the thickness of the bottom side wall of the bracket 2000. This distance is used to restrict the horizontal displacement of the bracket 2000 when the side wall of the bracket 2000 is snapped between the first fixing plate 3200 and the second fixing plate 3311, so that the guide buckle 3000 is securely connected to the bracket 2000. The second fixing plate 3311 extends a first guide plate 3312 in a direction away from the first fixing plate 3200. The first guide plate 3312 extends vertically downward to a first limiting plate 3313, which is used to guide the battery along the first guide plate 3312 to the first limiting plate 3313, so that the two opposing first limiting plates 3313 press against the battery and fix the battery inside the bracket 2000.

[0028] The first limiting plate 3313 of the abutment portion 3310 extends towards the first fixing plate 3200 with a locking plate 3321 of the locking portion 3320. The locking plate 3321 is perpendicular to the first fixing plate 3200 and its end abuts against the first fixing plate 3200. When the locking plate 3321 is engaged with the limiting portion 2100, the upper surface of the locking plate 3321 abuts against the upper edge of the limiting portion 2100, restricting the vertical displacement of the guide buckle 3000. The distance between the locking plate 3321 and the reference plate 3100 is equal to the distance between the upper edge of the limiting portion 2100 and the upper edge of the bottom side wall of the bracket 2000, so that the locking plate 3321 and the reference plate 3100 can abut against the bracket 2000, further restricting the vertical displacement of the guide buckle 3000. The side of the snap-fit ​​plate 3321 that contacts the limiting part 2100 is provided with an anti-slip layer to increase the friction between the snap-fit ​​plate 3321 and the limiting part 2100 and prevent the snap-fit ​​plate 3321 from disengaging from the limiting part 2100. In this embodiment, the anti-slip layer is a rubber layer.

[0029] The snap-fit ​​plate 3321 extends downward to form a second limiting plate 3322. The second limiting plate 3322 fits the shape of the limiting part 2100 and is attached to the first fixing plate 3200. When the snap-fit ​​plate 3321 abuts against the upper edge of the limiting part 2100, the second limiting plate 3322 is tightly embedded in the limiting part 2100, which helps to clamp the guide buckle 3000 installed on the bracket 2000 and restricts the displacement of the guide buckle 3000 in the horizontal and vertical directions.

[0030] The second limiting plate 3322 of the latching portion 3320 extends from its end away from the first fixing plate 3200 to form a second guide plate 3331 with a clamping portion 3330. This guide plate 3331 guides the upper edge of the bracket 2000 into the guide buckle 3000. A third fixing plate 3332 extends downward from the second guide plate 3331. The distance between the third fixing plate 3332 and the first fixing plate 3200 is the same as the thickness of the bottom sidewall of the bracket 2000. This third fixing plate 3332 clamps the sidewall of the bracket 2000 between the first fixing plate 3200 and the third fixing plate 3332 after the bracket 2000 is latched with the guide buckle 3000, thus helping to limit the horizontal displacement of the bracket 2000. In this embodiment, the surfaces of the first guide plate 3312 and the second guide plate 3331 are set as inclined planes.

[0031] This utility model has a novel structure and stable operation. In use, the opening of the guide buckle 3000 is aligned with the upper edge of the bracket 2000, so that the upper edge of the bracket 2000 is located between the third fixing plate 3332 and the first fixing plate 3200. The reference plate 3100 of the guide buckle 3000 is pushed downwards until it abuts against the upper edge of the bracket 2000. The second limiting plate 3322 is inserted into the limiting part 2100, and the snap-fit ​​plate 3321 abuts against... By holding the upper edge of the limiting part 2100, the guide buckle 3000 is installed on the bracket 2000. Then, the battery is vertically placed into the bracket 2000 from top to bottom. After the battery is guided into the bracket 2000 by the guide buckle 3000, the battery falls vertically to the bottom of the frame housing 1000. At the same time, the battery is pressed against the first limiting plate 3313 of the two guide buckles 3000 arranged opposite each other in the horizontal direction, thus completing the guiding installation and fixing of the battery.

[0032] Although this specification describes embodiments, not every embodiment contains only one independent technical solution. This narrative style is merely for clarity. Those skilled in the art should consider the specification as a whole. The technical solutions in each embodiment can also be appropriately combined to form other embodiments that can be understood by those skilled in the art.

[0033] Therefore, the above description is only a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit the scope of this application; that is, all equivalent modifications made in accordance with the scope of the claims of this application shall be within the protection scope of the claims of this application.
