Detailed Implementation
[0023] The following is in conjunction with the appendix Figure 1 To be continued Figure 6 The principles and features of this utility model are described, and the examples given are only used to explain this utility model and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.
[0024] A universal battery box for power distribution cabinets includes a box body 1 for loading batteries. The box body 1 is a cuboid structure with an open top. A battery locking component is provided inside the box body 1. The battery locking component can flexibly divide the space inside the box body 1 according to the required battery size, thereby improving the versatility of the battery box.
[0025] The battery locking assembly includes several slots 2 disposed on the inner sides of two opposite side walls of the housing 1, and a sliding baffle 3 for battery positioning. The sliding baffle 3 has telescopic teeth 4 at both ends. When the telescopic teeth 4 extend, they engage with the slots 2 to lock the battery; when the telescopic teeth 4 retract, they release the engagement. Specifically, the slots 2 extend vertically, and several adjacent slots 2 form a locking strip. This strip is positioned along the length of the housing 1. Thus, when the telescopic teeth 4 retract, the position of the sliding baffle 3 within the housing 1 can be adjusted, thereby achieving the versatility of the battery box. To flexibly adjust the position of the battery within the housing 1, in one embodiment, two sets of sliding baffles 3 are provided within the housing 1.
[0026] The telescopic movement of the telescopic tooth 4 can be achieved through the following scheme: a sliding groove 5 is provided on the sliding baffle 3, and a slider 6 is slidably connected in the groove 5. The telescopic tooth 4 is located at the end of the slider 6 and is integrally formed with the slider 6. A return spring 7 is provided between the end of the slider 6 away from the telescopic tooth 4 and the sliding baffle 3. A push rod 8 is provided at the top of the slider 6. The top of the push rod 8 extends out of the top of the sliding baffle 3 through a through groove 9. The width of the through groove 9 is greater than the width of the push rod 8 to ensure that when the push rod 8 is pushed, the telescopic tooth 4 is completely retracted into the groove 5. When the push rod 8 is released, the telescopic tooth 4 extends under the action of the return spring 7 to complete the engagement with the groove 2. Specifically, the cross-sections of the telescopic tooth 4 and the slot 2 are both right-angled triangles, with the right-angled side set closer to the battery and the hypotenuse set further away from the battery. This design allows the sliding baffle 3 to move towards the battery by gently pushing it. When the sliding baffle 3 needs to move in the opposite direction, the locking state of the telescopic tooth 4 and the slot 2 must be manually released, thus realizing the function of one-way push-in and reverse locking.
[0027] In order to ensure that the slider 6 will not slip out of the groove 5, in one embodiment, an anti-slip cover 10 is fixedly installed on the side of the sliding baffle 3 where the groove 5 is provided. The anti-slip cover 10 is adapted to the shape of the sliding baffle 3, specifically, the two have the same shape.
[0028] The box body 1 is also provided with guide grooves 11 extending horizontally on two opposite side walls, and the sliding baffle 3 is provided with protrusions 12 at both ends that slide along the guide grooves 11 to ensure the stability of the sliding baffle 3. Specifically, the guide grooves 11 are arranged parallel to the upper and lower sides of the card strip.
[0029] To facilitate the installation and removal of the sliding baffle 3 within the housing 1, vertically extending mounting grooves 13 are provided on the two opposite side walls of the housing 1. The mounting grooves 13 are located in the middle of the retaining strip / guide groove 11. During installation, the protrusion 12 on the sliding baffle 3 first passes through the mounting groove 13 and then enters the guide groove 11. Removal is performed by reversing the operation.
[0030] To further secure the battery, the tops of the other two opposite sidewalls of the housing 1 are bent outwards to form mounting portions. Mounting holes 14 are provided on these mounting portions, and a battery pressure plate 15 is placed between the two mounting portions. Both ends of the battery pressure plate 15 have holes coaxial with the mounting holes 14. Thus, by screwing the battery pressure plate 15 to the mounting portions, the battery is securely pressed into the housing 1. Specifically, to further improve the versatility of this battery box, the mounting portions include a low mounting portion 16 and a high mounting portion 17. The top edge of the sidewall of the housing 1 extends outwards to form the low mounting portion 16, and the top edge of the sidewall of the housing 1 extends vertically upwards for a certain distance before bending outwards to form the high mounting portion 17. By providing mounting portions of different heights, batteries of different heights can be accommodated.
[0031] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
