Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of fixture technology, and in particular to a BBOX tooling fixture assembly. Background Technology

[0002] With the advancement of energy conservation, emission reduction, and equipment electrification, large-capacity batteries are becoming increasingly widespread in the market. This necessitates both real-time asset management of batteries and lifecycle management of this energy storage system. Full lifecycle management of batteries involves remote monitoring, status assessment, operation and maintenance coordination, and asset scheduling. This requires the installation of a B-box operation controller module (hereinafter referred to as B-box) within the battery pack, possessing functions such as end-to-end monitoring, remote communication, data storage, and control applications.

[0003] The production process of a B-box involves steps such as programming and FCT testing. During FCT testing, a fixture is typically used to fix the circuit board, and then the fixture is manipulated to electrically connect the FCT test probes on the fixture to the circuit board. This process also requires manual operation of the antenna module to accurately mate it with the circuit board and integrate it into the circuitry. However, this manual antenna module connection is technically challenging and prone to wear and tear from contact with the circuit board. Therefore, it demands highly skilled and experienced personnel, resulting in high labor costs.

[0004] Furthermore, in related technologies, the B-box production process requires separate programming fixtures and FCT testing fixtures. The circuit board is first assembled onto the programming fixture, and after completion, it is disassembled and reassembled onto the FCT testing fixture for FCT testing. This method increases both equipment costs and workflow, hindering cost reduction and production efficiency improvement. Utility Model Content

A positioning carrier plate 11 and multiple probes a are disposed on the first base 1, and the positioning carrier plate 11 has a circuit board limiting groove. The bracket 2 is disposed on the first base 1. The lifting mechanism 3 is disposed on the bracket 2.

[0060] When programming and performing FCT testing on the circuit board, the circuit board can first be installed in the circuit board limiting groove on the first base 1. Then, the lifting mechanism 3 is operated to bring the upper test plate 4 close to the circuit board. The upper test plate 4 and / or each probe a on the first base 1 make elastic contact with the programming contacts and test contacts on the circuit board, respectively, to realize the programming and online automatic functional testing of the product.

[0061] The BBOX fixture assembly of this application integrates software programming and FCT testing functions onto a single structural group, achieving a "one-stop" operation for BBOX product software programming and FCT testing. This significantly reduces the need for separate programming and FCT testing fixtures for different products, substantially improving production efficiency. Integrating the programming and FCT testing fixtures into a single testing fixture reduces process steps and lowers the frequency of personnel operation.

[0062] The BBOX tooling fixture assembly of this application is equipped with a first horizontal moving mechanism, which can conveniently, quickly and accurately move the antenna component 6, so that the antenna component 6 and the circuit board can be successfully connected, thereby reducing the difficulty of operation for the staff, reducing the experience requirements of the staff, reducing labor costs, and improving the efficiency of FCT testing.

[0065] In some possible implementations, the BBOX tooling fixture assembly includes a slide rail 7 disposed on the first base 1 and extending to the positioning carrier plate 11, with a first mounting block 51 slidably connected to the slide rail 7. In this implementation, the slide rail 7 precisely defines the direction of movement of the first mounting block 51.

[0066] In some possible implementations, a clamping assembly 8 is provided on the first mounting block 51. The clamping assembly 8 includes a first clamping block 81, a second clamping block 82, and a screw. The first clamping block 81 is fixed to the first mounting block 51. The second clamping block 82 has a through groove 821. One end of the screw passes through the through groove and is threadedly connected to the first clamping block 81. A threaded groove may be provided on the first clamping block 81 for threaded connection with the screw. The other end of the screw is provided with a cap. Rotation of the screw can drive the second clamping block 82 to move closer to or away from the first clamping block 81, thereby adjusting the distance between the first clamping block 81 and the second clamping block 82 to clamp or release the antenna component 6.

[0067] In some possible implementations, the second clamping block 82 has strip grooves 822 on both sides, and the first mounting block has fixing holes. One end of a fastener passes through the strip groove 822 and connects to the corresponding fixing hole, and the fastener and the strip groove 822 are slidably engaged.

The base plate 511 is slidably connected to the slide rail. The clamping assembly 8 is disposed on one side plate 512, and the other side plate 512 is connected to the translation member 52.

[0069] In this embodiment, the first mounting block 51 is approximately U-shaped, with one of the two side plates 512 used for mounting the clamping assembly 8 and the other for connecting the translation component 52. The installation of the clamping assembly 8 and the translation component 52 does not interfere with each other.

[0070] In some possible implementations, the end of the translation member 52 is provided with a stud section 521, which passes through a side plate 512. Several nuts are threaded onto the stud section 521, and each nut is located on both sides of the side plate 512. The side plate 512 can be translated along the stud section 521 and fixed by the nuts to adjust the position of the translation member 52, so that the translation member 52 can drive the antenna component 6 to accurately connect with the circuit board.

[0071] In some possible implementations, the lifting mechanism 3 includes a second mounting base 31, a lifting member 32, a second drive assembly 33, and a second mounting block 34. The second mounting base 31 is fixed to the bracket 2, and the lifting member 32 is slidably connected to the second mounting base 31. The second mounting block 34 is disposed at the bottom end of the lifting member 32 and houses the upper measuring plate 4. The second drive assembly 33 is movably disposed on the second mounting base 31, and the second drive assembly 33 and the lifting member 32 are connected in a transmission manner. Under the action of external force, the movement of the second drive assembly 33 can drive the upper measuring plate 4 to move up and down, so as to move closer to or away from the positioning carrier plate 11.

[0072] The lifting mechanism and the first horizontal moving mechanism have roughly the same structure: the second mounting base 31 may include a hinge and a guide sleeve; the second drive assembly 33 includes an operating handle and a hinge; the lifting member 32 is slidably disposed through the guide sleeve; one end of the hinge is hinged to the lifting member 32; the operating handle is hinged to the hinge and to the other end of the hinge; the bottom end of the lifting member 32 is connected to the second mounting block 34.

[0073] In some possible implementations, the BBOX tooling fixture assembly includes a guide rod b connected to the bracket 2, the guide rod b being perpendicular to the first base 1, and an upper measuring plate 4 slidably connected to the guide rod b.

The limiting seat 92 is disposed on the second base 91 and is used to limit the installation of the finished part c. The second horizontal moving mechanism 93 is disposed on the second base 91. The test box 94 is connected to the second horizontal moving mechanism 93 and has a test interface and an antenna interface. The second horizontal moving mechanism 93 can drive the test box 94 to move closer to or further away from the limiting seat 92, so that the test interface and the antenna interface are respectively connected to the corresponding connection ports on the finished part c.

[0075] The second horizontal moving mechanism 93 is structurally similar to the first horizontal moving mechanism. It may include a third mounting base, a translation shaft, a hinge, and a handle. The third mounting base is mounted on the second base 91 and has a sleeve and a hinge. The translation shaft slidably passes through the sleeve. The hinge is hinged to the translation shaft, and the handle is hinged to both the hinge and the hinge. The translation shaft is connected to the test box 94, which is slidably mounted on a slide rail on the second base 91. Rotation of the handle acts on the translation shaft, causing it to move the test box 94, allowing it to dock with the finished product c. This electrically connects the test box 94 and the finished product c, enabling functional testing of the finished product c and achieving online automatic functional testing of the product.
