Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of battery pack leakage detection equipment, specifically to a pipeline repositioning detection mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] A helium suction gun detector is a specialized device that uses helium as a tracer gas, combined with mass spectrometry or thermal conductivity sensor technology, to perform high-precision leak detection in sealed systems. Its core principle is to collect gas near suspected leak points using a suction gun, quickly analyze the helium concentration within the gas, and thus locate and quantify the amount of leakage.

[0003] The core purpose of using a gas mixing device in helium detection is to meet the need for "precise control of helium concentration" in different detection scenarios. Whether it is for equipment calibration, cost reduction, or simulating actual working conditions, the gas mixing device can solve the limitations of using pure helium by accurately adjusting the ratio of helium to carrier gas, thus ensuring the accuracy, economy, and practicality of the detection results.

[0004] The gas mixing device fills the battery pack with helium detection gas through a gas pipeline. Since the gas pipeline is manually connected and disassembled, if the gas pipeline is not removed in time after the gas mixing device has been filled with helium detection gas, the pipeline will be pulled when the transport trolley is carrying the battery pack. This will cause damage to the battery pack, the pipeline body and the main body of the gas mixing device, resulting in damage to the gas mixing device and affecting subsequent testing work. Utility Model Content

[0005] The first aspect of this utility model aims to solve the technical problem that the gas mixing device is damaged because the gas pipeline cannot be removed in time during manual operation. It provides a pipeline repositioning detection mechanism that can determine whether the pipeline has been successfully removed by sensing whether the pipeline has been repositioned through a sensing device.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides a pipeline repositioning detection mechanism, including a frame for supporting a gas mixing device, which is equipped with a gas pipeline for gas supply. It also includes a storage component and an identification component. The storage component is positioned on the frame near the gas pipeline of the gas mixing device. The storage component includes an overlapping groove plate, and the identification component includes a sensor module disposed within the overlapping groove plate. The sensor module is used to sense the presence of a gas pipeline within the overlapping groove plate. This solution, by placing the sensor module within the overlapping groove plate for placing the gas pipeline, indicates that the gas pipeline has been successfully removed from the battery pack if the sensor module detects a gas pipeline within the overlapping groove plate. If the sensor module does not detect a gas pipeline within the overlapping groove plate, it indicates that the gas pipeline has not been successfully removed from the battery pack, prompting the operator to remove the gas pipeline. This prevents damage to the battery pack or the gas mixing device caused by the transfer trolley carrying the battery pack pulling on the gas pipeline.

[0007] Preferably, the sensor module includes a proximity switch, a weight sensor, or an infrared sensor.

[0008] Preferably, the identification component further includes a controller and a communication module, and the identification component communicates with a remote processor through the communication module.

[0009] Preferably, the identification component further includes a prompting module, which is electrically connected to the controller and is mounted on the rack. The prompting module uses an indicator light, a speaker, or a display screen. When the sensor module does not detect the gas pipeline, the controller controls the prompting module to issue a prompting signal.

[0010] The second aspect of this invention aims to enable the pipe to be quickly positioned relative to the overlapping groove plate. Preferably, the storage assembly includes a wire clamp for fixing the position of the gas pipe, and the wire clamp is detachably connected to the overlapping groove plate. After the wire clamp fixes the position of the gas pipe, the positions of the gas pipe and the overlapping groove plate are relatively fixed, making it convenient for the gas pipe, after being removed from the battery pack, to be directly placed on the overlapping groove plate.

[0011] Preferably, the overlapping groove plate is a U-shaped support structure formed by bending and integral molding. The overlapping groove plate includes two parallel vertical panels and a horizontal connecting plate connecting the bottom ends of the two vertical panels. The horizontal connecting plate and the two vertical panels form an upward-facing receiving port. The two vertical panels are respectively connected to the frame and the wire clamping component. The vertical panel connected to the wire clamping component has a limiting groove. The wire clamping component includes a quick-release block, which is detachably connected to the limiting groove. When the gas pipeline is inserted, if the distance of the gas pipeline is insufficient or the battery pack insertion position is opposite to the direction, the quick-release block provided by the wire clamping component can be removed from the limiting groove in the overlapping groove plate, so that the gas pipeline installed on the wire clamping component is freed from the constraint and its position can be flexibly adjusted. After use, the quick-release block of the wire clamping component is reinstalled to the limiting groove of the overlapping groove plate.

[0012] Preferably, the limiting groove includes a straight slide groove and a semi-circular groove connected to the bottom of the straight slide groove. The quick-release block has an annular groove that rotatably engages with the semi-circular groove. The sidewall of the annular groove abuts against the vertical panel. In actual use, if the gas pipe and battery pack insertion position are misaligned too much without removing the cable clip, pulling the gas pipe can cause the cable clip to rotate within the semi-circular groove through the annular groove, adjusting the gas pipe's deflection angle.

[0013] To accommodate different types of gas pipelines, the clamping device preferably includes a reference seat and an adjusting seat, which are movably connected by fastening bolts. The adjusting seat has an arc-shaped positioning groove. The arc-shaped positioning groove allows the gas pipeline to be positioned, and the clamping device can be adjusted to position the gas pipeline under the action of the fastening bolts.

[0014] The third aspect of this invention aims to address the issue that the connector used to connect the gas mixing pipe and the battery pack has a certain weight, causing the gas pipe to be pulled under gravity. Furthermore, it includes a storage tray for holding the connector at the outlet end of the gas pipe. After the pipe is placed on the overlapping groove plate, the connector at the end of the pipe is then placed on the storage tray, ensuring stable placement of the pipe end and preventing damage to the gas pipe due to gravity.

[0015] Preferably, a sealing component is provided inside the storage tray, which is used to connect to the connector of the gas pipeline. Using the sealing component to connect the connector further fixes the position of the connector at the end of the pipeline.

[0016] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0017] By installing a sensor module inside the grooved plate used to place the gas pipe, if the sensor module detects that a gas pipe is placed inside the grooved plate, it proves that the gas pipe has been successfully removed from the battery pack. If the sensor module does not detect that a gas pipe is placed inside the grooved plate, it proves that the gas pipe has not been successfully removed from the battery pack, prompting the operator to remove the gas pipe to avoid damage to the battery pack or gas mixing equipment caused by the transfer trolley carrying the battery pack pulling the gas pipe.

[0023] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments clearer, the present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. When the following description refers to the drawings, unless otherwise indicated, the same numbers in different drawings represent the same or similar elements. The embodiments described in the following exemplary embodiments do not represent all embodiments consistent with this disclosure. Rather, they are merely examples of apparatuses and methods consistent with some aspects of this disclosure as detailed in the appended claims.

[0024] In this disclosure, unless otherwise stated, directional terms such as "inner" and "outer" are defined based on the contours of the corresponding components. Terms such as "first" and "second" used in this disclosure are for distinguishing one element from another and do not imply sequence or importance.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] like Figures 1-4 As shown, this embodiment provides a pipeline repositioning detection mechanism, including a frame 1, which is used to support a gas mixing device, the gas mixing device being equipped with a gas pipeline for gas supply; it also includes a storage component and an identification component, the storage component including an overlapping groove plate 3, and the identification component including a sensor module 2, the sensor module 2 being disposed on the overlapping groove plate 3, the sensor module 2 being used to sense the gas pipeline placed inside the overlapping groove plate 3.

[0027] The storage component is located on the frame 1 near the gas pipeline interface of the mixing equipment, which facilitates quick return to its place after the pipeline is removed.

[0028] This solution involves installing a sensor module 2 within the overlapping groove plate 3 used to house the gas pipe. If the sensor module 2 detects a gas pipe within the overlapping groove plate 3, it indicates that the gas pipe has been successfully removed from the battery pack. If the sensor module 2 does not detect a gas pipe within the overlapping groove plate 3, it indicates that the gas pipe has not been successfully removed from the battery pack, prompting the operator to remove the gas pipe. This prevents the transfer trolley carrying the battery pack from pulling on the gas pipe, which could damage the battery pack or the gas mixing equipment.

[0029] The sensor module 2 includes a proximity switch, a weight sensor, or an infrared sensor. In this embodiment, the sensor module 2 uses a proximity switch.

[0030] The identification component also includes a controller and a communication module, and the identification component communicates with the remote processor through the communication module.

[0031] The identification component also includes a prompting module, which is electrically connected to the controller and is mounted on the rack 1. The prompting module can use an indicator light, a speaker, or a display screen. The sensor module 2 is electrically connected to the controller, and the control module can send signals identified by the sensor module 2 to the prompting module. The prompting module can then issue different prompting signals based on the information identified by the sensor module 2. For example, if an indicator light is used, different light colors can be set to flash to indicate whether the sensor module 2 is turned on, and whether the sensor module 2 has detected that a gas pipeline is placed on the overlapping groove plate 3.

[0032] When sensor module 2 does not detect the gas pipeline, the controller activates the prompting module to issue a prompt signal; when the gas pipeline is detected, the prompting module is in standby mode. The prerequisite for sensor module 2 to activate its detection is that the gas mixing equipment has finished mixing.

[0033] like Figures 1-3 As shown, to enable the pipe to be quickly positioned relative to the overlapping groove plate 3, the preferred storage component includes a wire clamp 4 connected to the overlapping groove plate 3. The wire clamp 4 is used to fix the position of the gas pipe. After the wire clamp 4 fixes the position of the gas pipe, the position of the gas pipe and the overlapping groove plate 3 are relatively fixed, making it convenient for the gas pipe, after being removed from the battery pack, to be directly placed on the overlapping groove plate 3.

[0034] In this embodiment, the wire clip 4 is detachably connected to the overlapping groove plate 3.

[0035] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the overlapping groove plate 3 is a U-shaped support structure formed by bending. The overlapping groove plate 3 includes two parallel vertical panels and a horizontal connecting plate connecting the bottom ends of the two vertical panels. The horizontal connecting plate and the two vertical panels form an upward-facing receiving port. The two vertical panels are respectively connected to the frame 1 and the wire clamping component 4. The vertical panel connected to the wire clamping component 4 has a limiting groove 31. The wire clamping component 4 includes a quick-release block 44, which is detachably connected to the limiting groove 31.

[0036] When the gas pipeline is being connected, if the distance between the gas pipelines is insufficient or the battery pack connection position is opposite to the direction, the quick-release block provided by the cable clamp can be removed from the limiting groove in the overlapping groove plate, so that the gas pipeline installed on the cable clamp is freed from the constraint and its position can be flexibly adjusted. After use, the quick-release block of the cable clamp and the limiting groove of the overlapping groove plate can be reinstalled.

[0037] like Figure 3As shown, the limiting groove 31 includes a straight slide groove and a semi-circular groove connected to the bottom of the straight slide groove. The quick-release block 44 has an annular groove 45, which rotatably engages with the semi-circular groove. The sidewall of the annular groove 45 is used to abut against the vertical panel. In actual use, if the gas pipe and battery pack insertion position are misaligned too much when the cable clamp is not removed, pulling the gas pipe can cause the cable clamp to rotate within the semi-circular groove through the annular groove 45, adjusting the deflection angle of the gas pipe.

[0038] To accommodate different types of gas pipelines, the clamping component 4 also includes a reference seat 42 and an adjusting seat 43, which are movably connected by fastening bolts. The adjusting seat 43 has an arc-shaped positioning groove 41. The arc-shaped positioning groove allows the gas pipeline to be positioned, and the fastening bolts constrain the gas pipeline, ensuring that the gas pipeline, after being placed in the overlapping groove plate, will not be unstable in the overlapping groove plate due to displacement of the gas pipeline at the un-overlapped end.

[0039] like Figure 2 As shown, to accommodate different types of gas pipelines, the preferred method is to include a reference base 42 and an adjusting base 43, which are movably connected by fastening bolts. The adjusting base 43 has an arc-shaped positioning groove 41. The arc-shaped positioning groove 41 allows the gas pipeline to be positioned, and the positioning connection of the cable clamp 4 to the gas pipeline is adaptively adjusted under the action of the fastening bolts.

[0040] like Figures 1-2 As shown, to address the issue that the connector connecting the gas mixing pipe and the battery pack has a certain weight, causing the gas pipe to be pulled under gravity, this embodiment also includes a storage tray 5. The storage tray 5 is used to place the connector at the output end of the gas pipe. After the pipe is placed on the overlapping groove plate 3, the connector at the end of the pipe is then placed on the storage tray 5, ensuring that the end of the pipe is stably placed and preventing the gas pipe from being pulled under gravity, thus avoiding damage to the gas pipe.

[0041] A sealing assembly is installed inside the storage tray 5. This sealing assembly is used to connect to the connector of the gas pipeline. Using the sealing assembly to connect the connector further fixes the position of the connector at the end of the pipeline. The sealing assembly both fixes the position of the connector and prevents dust and impurities from entering the connector interface and affecting subsequent use.

[0042] like Figure 4 As shown, overlapping groove plates can be installed on the frame according to their orientation.

[0043] The above descriptions are merely embodiments of this utility model, and common knowledge regarding specific structures and characteristics is not elaborated upon here. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the structure of this utility model, and these should also be considered within the scope of protection of this utility model. These modifications will not affect the effectiveness of the implementation of this utility model or the practicality of the patent. The scope of protection claimed in this application shall be determined by the content of its claims, and the specific embodiments described in the specification can be used to interpret the content of the claims.
