[0002] In various electrical devices, batteries are crucial power supply components and need to be installed. Traditional battery installation methods typically require a dedicated battery box. The device casing must have a corresponding structure for mounting the battery box. The battery is placed inside and secured in the box, which is then placed inside the device casing. Electrical connections are then established via wires to a PCB board or through contact components on the PCB board. This installation method requires an additional battery box structure, increasing the number of parts, adding an extra step in assembly, raising material costs and labor time. Furthermore, it imposes stricter requirements on the dimensional control of the battery box structure, further increasing manufacturing costs. Utility Model Content

[0030] Please see Figure 1-5This utility model embodiment provides a battery mounting structure 1, which is disposed on the housing 21 of an electrical device 2. The housing 21 is provided with a mounting area 22 for mounting a battery. The battery mounting structure 1 includes a limiting member 11 and a latching member 12 disposed along the edge of the mounting area 22. At least two limiting members 11 and latching members 12 are provided. One limiting member 11 and latching member 12 is disposed on one side of the edge of the mounting area 22, and the other limiting member 11 and latching member 12 is disposed on the other side of the edge of the mounting area 22. The latching member 12 is used to restrict the movement of the battery 3 in a first direction, and the limiting member 11 is used to restrict the movement of the battery 3 in a second direction. The first direction and the second direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0031] In this embodiment, the battery mounting structure 1 is directly mounted on the housing 21 of the electrical equipment 2, and both the limiting member 11 and the latching member 12 are positioned on both sides of the mounting area 22 on the housing 21. After the battery 3 is installed, their combined action restricts the battery 3 in two different directions, thus ensuring the stability of the battery 3 installation. In practical applications, the product is placed vertically; therefore, the latching member 12 restricts the battery 3's left-right movement in the horizontal direction, and the limiting member 11 restricts the battery 3's up-down movement in the vertical direction. When not in use, the product is usually placed horizontally. In this case, the latching member 12 restricts the battery 3's up-down movement in the vertical direction, and the limiting member 11 restricts the battery 3's left-right movement in the horizontal direction. The specific direction of movement restricted by the latching member 12 and the limiting member 11 can be determined based on the placement direction.

[0032] In practical implementation, the battery mounting structure 1 is implemented as follows: When installing the battery, the battery 3 is placed in the mounting area 22. At this time, the limiting member 11 will contact the side of the battery 3, restricting the movement of the battery 3 in the second direction; while the latching member 12 also contacts the side of the battery 3, and the top of the latching member 12 forms a blockage against the movement of the battery in the first direction, so that the battery is securely fixed in the mounting area 22. When it is necessary to remove the battery, the battery 3 is pried off from the mounting area 22 and can be removed from the mounting area 22.

[0033] This embodiment effectively prevents the battery 3 from moving in different directions during the operation of the electrical equipment 2 by setting limiting members 11 and fasteners 12 on both sides of the edge of the installation area 22, ensuring the stability of the connection between the battery 3 and the internal circuit of the equipment, and reducing equipment failures caused by loose batteries. At the same time, this structural design is simple, requiring no complicated installation tools or additional battery box structure to install the battery 3.

[0034] In a specific implementation, the limiting member 11 can be a raised block structure with a height equal to or slightly lower than the height of the battery 3, so as to better contact and limit the battery 3 with its side. The latching member 12 can also be designed as a raised block structure, with one end of the block structure fixed to the edge of the mounting area 22 and the other end extending towards the center of the mounting area 22, with the extended end located above the battery. The vertical movement of the battery is restricted by the extended end (i.e., the latching part 122 in the subsequent embodiment). In other application scenarios, the limiting member 11 can also be a groove structure, with a protrusion on the side of the battery 3 that cooperates with the groove; the latching member 12 is a rotary latch, which is used to lock the battery by rotating the latching member 12. The limiting member 11 and the latching member 12 can be made of plastic and integrally molded onto the housing 21 by injection molding. This solution has low cost and high production efficiency. Alternatively, the limiting component 11 and the fastener 12 can be made of metal and fixed to the housing 21 by welding or bolting. Metal has higher strength and durability, but the cost is relatively high. The specific configuration can be set according to the specific needs.

[0035] Specifically, such as Figure 2-5 As shown, the installation area 22 includes an annular area, and at least four limiting members 11 are provided, of which two limiting members 11 are provided on one side of the edge of the annular area, and the other two limiting members 11 are provided on the other side of the edge of the annular area, and at least four limiting members 11 form an annular structure in the annular area.

[0036] In this embodiment, the battery 3 includes a battery body, and the central area of ​​the battery body is set as a cylindrical structure. After the battery 3 is installed in place, the central area of ​​the battery body is entirely within the functional range of the limiting member 11 and the fastener 12. Therefore, in order to adapt to the shape of the battery body, four or more limiting members 11 are arranged to form an annular area (not shown in the figure), so that the battery 3 can be limited in a second direction from all sides. Compared with a smaller number of limiting members 11, this annular surrounding structure provides more comprehensive and stable limitation of the battery, and is especially suitable for the installation and fixation of cylindrical batteries.

[0037] In the specific implementation plan, the diameter of the annular area is slightly larger than the diameter of the battery 3. The four limiting members 11 are evenly distributed on the edge of the annular area. The inner side of each limiting member 11 matches the outer circumference of the battery 3, and the inner diameter of the annular structure formed is adapted to the diameter of the battery.

[0038] In other application scenarios, the number of limiting members 11 can be increased according to the size of the battery 3 and installation requirements, such as six or eight, to enhance the limiting effect; the annular area can also be designed as an annular shape with a certain taper, and the annular structure enclosed by the limiting members 11 also has a matching taper, which is suitable for the installation of conical batteries.

[0039] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the limiting member 11 is an arc-shaped limiting member.

[0040] In this embodiment, in order to improve the limiting effect of the limiting member 11, the limiting member 11 is preferably set as an arc-shaped limiting member so that the inner arc surface of the arc-shaped limiting member can better fit with the outer circumferential surface of the battery body, thereby increasing the contact area between the limiting member 11 and the battery 3, thereby improving the stability and reliability of limiting the battery 3 in the second direction and reducing the damage to the battery casing caused by excessive local contact pressure.

[0041] In the specific implementation process, the inner arc surface of the arc-shaped limiting member 11 is in close contact with the outer circumferential surface of the battery. When the battery 3 has a tendency to move in the second direction, the arc surface can evenly bear the force applied by the battery and distribute the force to the limiting member 11, thereby more effectively restricting the movement of the battery.

[0042] The arc of the arc-shaped limiting member 11 is consistent with the arc of the outer circumference of the battery 3, and its length can be set according to the limiting requirements, generally 1 / 8 to 1 / 4 of the circumference of the battery 3. In other embodiments, an elastic pad, such as a rubber pad, can be provided on the inner arc surface of the arc-shaped limiting member 11, which can not only enhance the friction and improve the limiting effect, but also further protect the battery shell.

[0043] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, one of the fasteners 12 is located on one side of the edge of the annular area and between the two corresponding limiting members 11, and the other fastener 12 is located on the other side of the edge of the annular area and between the other two corresponding limiting members 11.

[0044] In this embodiment, a latching member 12 is positioned between two limiting members 11, allowing the latching member 12 to be closer to the central axis of the battery. This provides a more balanced restriction on the battery 3 in the first direction. When the battery 3 is subjected to a force in the first direction, the two latching members 12 receive force evenly from both sides, preventing the battery from tilting to one side. Combined with the horizontal limiting of the two limiting members 11, this further ensures the stable installation of the battery 3. By positioning the latching member 12 between the two limiting members 11, this embodiment makes the force on the battery 3 more balanced in the first direction, reducing installation deviations caused by uneven force distribution and improving the overall stability of the battery installation. Simultaneously, the space between the two limiting members 11 is utilized efficiently, making the battery installation structure 1 more compact and saving space in the installation area 22.

[0045] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the bottom of the limiting member 11 extends toward the center of the mounting area 22 and is provided with a limiting support part 111 for supporting the battery.

[0046] In this embodiment, the limiting support 111 provides bottom support for the battery. When the battery 3 is located in the installation area 22, the bottom of the battery 3 rests on the limiting support 111. The limiting support 111 bears the weight of the battery. Simultaneously, in conjunction with the horizontal limiting on the side of the limiting member 11 and the first directional limiting of the fastener 12, the battery 3 is constrained in the up-down, left-right, and front-back directions, ensuring stable installation. The limiting support 111 in this embodiment increases the support points for the battery 3, dispersing the pressure of the battery 3 on the bottom of the installation area 22 and preventing damage to the bottom of the battery due to excessive localized force.

[0047] In practical implementation, the extension length of the limiting support part 111 should be sufficient to stably support the bottom of the battery, and it should have a certain thickness to bear the weight of the battery 3. To ensure that the limiting support part 111 stably supports the battery, anti-slip textures can be provided on the upper surface of the limiting support part 111 to increase the friction with the bottom of the battery, or the limiting support part 111 can adopt a raised dotted structure, with multiple dotted support parts evenly distributed on the bottom of the limiting part 11 to jointly support the battery 3.

[0048] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the limiting support part 111 is arranged in an arc shape.

[0049] In this embodiment, to adapt to the bottom shape of the battery 3, the limiting support portion 111 needs to be arc-shaped to better fit the bottom of the battery 3, thereby increasing the support area and making the force on the bottom of the battery 3 more even, thus improving the stability of the support. Furthermore, the arc surface can also provide a certain limiting effect on the bottom of the battery 3 in the second direction, preventing the bottom of the battery 3 from sliding on the support portion.

[0050] In practical implementation, the radius of the arc of the limiting support part 111 is matched with the radius of the arc of the outer edge of the bottom of the battery 3. An elastic material layer, such as a silicone layer, can be provided on the arc surface of the limiting support part 111 to enhance the stability of the support and play a role in buffering and shock absorption.

[0051] Specifically, such as Figure 3 and Figure 5 As shown, the fastener 12 includes a fastener 12 body and a fastening portion 122 disposed on the top of the fastener 12 body, the fastening portion 122 extending toward the center of the mounting area 22.

[0052] In this embodiment, the body of the latching member 12 is vertically disposed on the edge of the installation area 22, and the latching part 122 is disposed on the top of the body of the latching member 12. When the battery 3 is installed in place, the latching part 122 is above the battery. By contacting or pressing the top of the battery with the latching part 122, the upward movement of the battery in the first direction is restricted, and the body of the latching member 12 restricts the movement of the battery to the left and right sides in the second direction, thereby achieving effective positioning of the battery 3.

[0053] In practical implementation, the body of the latching component 12 can be made of a material with a certain strength, such as plastic or metal. The latching part 122 can be designed as a bent structure that bends towards the top of the battery. The contact surface between the bent structure and the battery 3 is set as a plane so that the contact area between the latching part 122 and the top of the battery is large, thus better limiting the battery 3. In other application scenarios, the shape and size of the latching part 122 can be flexibly designed to adapt to different types and sizes of batteries 3.

[0054] Specifically, the fastener 12 is a flexible fastener.

[0055] In this embodiment, to facilitate the placement of the battery into the installation area 22, the latch 12 is designed as an elastic latch. Because the elastic latch has a certain elastic deformation capability, it can create space during battery installation by its own elastic deformation, allowing the battery to be placed into the installation area 22. Once the battery 3 is in place, the elastic latch returns to its original shape, and the latch 122 automatically engages with the battery to achieve a first-direction limit, making the battery installation process more convenient. When removing the battery 3, simply latch the battery away from the installation area 22, causing the elastic latch 12 to deform and release the latch 122 from the battery, allowing the battery 3 to be removed.

[0056] This embodiment makes battery installation and removal more convenient and quick by setting up an elastic buckle, without the need for additional tools, thus improving work efficiency. At the same time, the elastic buckle can maintain a certain pressure on the battery through its own elastic force, ensuring that the buckle part 122 and the battery will not loosen under the condition of equipment vibration, thus ensuring the reliability of the limit.

[0057] In a specific implementation plan, the elastic fastener can be made of spring steel sheet or elastic plastic, with an elastic deformation range sufficient to meet the needs of battery installation and removal, and possessing good fatigue strength, allowing for repeated use without failure. Alternatively, the elastic fastener can also employ a structure with a spring, using the spring force to achieve the elastic deformation of the fastener 12.

[0058] like Figure 1 As shown, this utility model embodiment also provides an electrical device 2, including a housing 21, and a battery mounting structure 1 as described above disposed on the housing 21.

[0059] In this embodiment, the battery mounting structure 1 described above is applied to the electrical equipment 2, enabling the electrical equipment 2 to stably mount and fix the battery 3, ensuring that the battery provides continuous and stable power support for the normal operation of the equipment and improving the overall reliability of the electrical equipment 2. Specifically, the battery 3 is securely mounted on the housing 21 of the electrical equipment 2 through the battery mounting structure 1. The battery is connected to the internal circuitry of the equipment to supply power to the electrical equipment 2. During the operation of the electrical equipment 2, the battery mounting structure 1 effectively restricts the movement of the battery, ensuring the stability of the connection between the battery and the circuitry, and enabling the electrical equipment 2 to operate normally.

[0060] Specifically, such as Figure 1 As shown, a detachable basic unit expansion plate 23 is also provided on the housing 21, and the basic unit expansion plate 23 is located on the side of the mounting area 22.

[0061] In this embodiment, the basic unit expansion board 23 is used to expand the function of the electrical equipment 2. The basic unit expansion board 23 is set on the side of the installation area 22 to facilitate the installation or removal of the basic unit expansion board 23. When the basic unit expansion board 23 is removed, the battery can be installed and replaced.

[0062] In practical implementation, the basic unit expansion board 23 can be detachably connected to the housing 21 through a plug-in structure or screw connection. The connection position between the basic unit expansion board 23 and the housing 21 is provided with a circuit interface to ensure a reliable connection with the internal circuit of the equipment. The size and shape of the basic unit expansion board 23 are adapted to the installation position on the side of the housing 21.

[0063] The above description is merely a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any person skilled in the art can easily conceive of various equivalent modifications or substitutions within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model, and these modifications or substitutions should all be covered within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the scope of the claims.
