Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of battery charging racks, and in particular relates to a water-cooled battery charging rack with a water tank structure. Background Technology

[0002] The working process of the battery charging rack is as follows: Batteries filled with acid are placed in a transfer tray. A conveyor line and a mobile lifting trolley are used to transfer the battery transfer tray to one end of a designated layer on the charging rack. The transfer tray is then controlled to move horizontally into the designated layer. Multiple rows of rollers inside the designated layer facilitate movement of the transferred tray along the length of the designated layer. Once the designated layer is full of transfer trays, both ends of the designated layer are sealed for water filling. After charging is complete, the transfer tray is pushed out from the other end of the designated layer to complete unloading. An existing example, CN204216150U, discloses a battery charging water tank, including a tank body and a gate. The tank body is a cuboid structure with an open top and one open side. The gate is installed at the open side of the tank body. The gate seals the end, which can easily lead to poor sealing during use, causing cooling water inside the tank body to overflow from the gap between the tank body and the gate.

By detachably installing end plates at both ends of the water tank body, the end plates compress and deform the sealing strip, thereby achieving a sealed installation of the end plates and solving the cooling water leakage problem mentioned in the prior art.

[0004] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0005] This utility model relates to a water-cooled battery charging rack with a water tank structure, including a water tank body. End plates are detachably mounted on both ends of the water tank body. A boss is provided on the outer periphery of the end of the water tank body, and a movable frame is connected to one side of the boss via several elastic telescopic components. A U-shaped frame is provided on the end face of the water tank body, and the end plates are inserted between the U-shaped frame and the movable frame. A U-shaped groove is provided on the side of the U-shaped frame near the movable frame, and a sealing strip with a circular cross-section is inserted into the U-shaped groove.

[0006] Furthermore, a waist-shaped hole is provided at the top of the end plate.

[0007] Furthermore, the bottom end of the boss is provided with a protrusion for supporting the end plate between the inserted U-shaped frame and the movable frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the outer wall of the movable frame is provided with two pairs of fixing blocks, and the fixing blocks are provided with through holes; it also includes an operating rod, one side of which is connected to two connecting rods, and the end of the connecting rod is provided with a protruding post that passes through the through hole, and the end of the protruding post is provided with a limiting plate.

Detailed Implementation

[0020] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0022] Please see Figure 1-4 As shown, this utility model provides a water-cooled battery charging rack with a water tank structure, including a water tank body 1 with a U-shaped cross-section. U-shaped frames 15 are respectively provided on both ends of the water tank body 1. A boss 11 is provided on the outer peripheral side wall of the end of the water tank body 1. A movable frame 14 is connected to one side of the boss 11 through several elastic telescopic members 13. An end plate 2 is inserted between the U-shaped frame 15 and the movable frame 14. A U-shaped groove is provided on the side of the U-shaped frame 15 near the movable frame 14. A sealing strip 151 with a circular cross-section is inserted into the U-shaped groove. In use, through the cooperation of the sealing strip 151 and the end plate 2, the elastic telescopic members 13 control the end plate 2 to move towards the side near the boss 11 after insertion. After the end plate 2 moves, it squeezes the sealing strip 151 to compress and deform it, thereby sealing the end plate 2 and completely solving the problem of cooling water leakage. Moreover, the sealing strip 151 is detachable, which is convenient for later maintenance and replacement.

[0023] The elastic telescopic component 13 consists of an inner sleeve, an outer sleeve that cooperate with each other, and a return spring connected to the inner sleeve and the outer sleeve at both ends respectively.

[0024] In use, first remove one end plate 2, and push the turnover tray containing the battery into the water tank body 1 from one end. The bottom side of the water tank body 1 is equipped with multiple rows of rollers, so when the turnover tray is pushed into the water tank body 1, the turnover tray moves along the length of the water tank body 1 under the action of the multiple rows of rollers. After the water tank body 1 is full of turnover trays, put the removed end plate 2 back in, and then fill the water tank body 1 with water. After the battery has finished charging, drain the cooling water in the water tank body 1, remove the other end plate 2, and finally remove the turnover tray from the water tank body 1.

[0025] Chain conveyors, roller conveyors, and other conveying mechanisms can be used to replace multi-row rollers.

[0026] To facilitate control of the movement of end plate 2, such as Figure 2 and 4 An oblong hole 21 is provided at the top of the end plate 2; at the same time, in order to facilitate the control of the end plate 2 to be inserted between the U-shaped frame 15 and the movable frame 14 during use, a protrusion 12 is provided at the bottom of the boss 11, that is, when the end plate 2 is inserted between the U-shaped frame 15 and the movable frame 14, the bottom of the end plate 2 is pressed against the protrusion 12; and the protrusion 12 can prevent the end plate 2 from sinking and causing the seal to fail.

[0027] Based on the above, in order to facilitate the installation and disassembly of the control end plate 2, it is necessary to control the movable frame 14 to move away from the U-shaped frame 15 during operation. To facilitate the application of force, two pairs of fixing blocks 16 are provided on the outer wall of the movable frame 14, and the fixing blocks 16 are provided with through holes 161; it also includes an operating rod 17, one side of which is connected to two connecting rods 171. The end of the connecting rod 171 is provided with a protrusion 172 that penetrates through the through hole 161, and the end of the protrusion 172 is provided with a limiting plate 173. The size of hole 161 is larger than the size of limit plate 173; that is, during use, the control protrusion 172 is inserted into a pair of fixed blocks 16 located in the middle of the movable frame 14, which facilitates the operation of the operating lever 17 to control the movable frame 14 to move away from the U-shaped frame 15; after the movement of the control end plate 2 is completed, in order to facilitate the control of the turnover tray loaded with the battery to be pushed out or pushed into the water tank body 1, the control protrusion 172 is inserted into a pair of fixed blocks 16 located at the bottom of the movable frame 14.
