[0043] Embodiments of the utility model provide a probe assembly 100 and a charging and discharging device 200, capable of simplifying and facilitating the process of replacing the probe 30.

[0044] Embodiments of the first aspect

[0045] Referring to [Fig.l] and [Fig.2], there is shown a structural diagram of a probe assembly 100, according to an embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model, the probe assembly 100 comprising a support assembly 10 and a plurality of mounting members 20, the plurality of mounting members 20 being detachably coupled to the support assembly 10, and the plurality of mounting members 20 being sequentially arranged along a first direction x, each of the mounting members 20 being movable in a second direction y relative to the support assembly 10, so as to assemble with the support assembly 10 or to detach from the support assembly 10, and each of the mounting members 20 being detachably provided with a plurality of probes 30, the plurality of probes 30 being arranged spaced apart along the second direction y.

[0046] Here, the second direction y and the first direction x are directions not parallel to each other, the first direction x may be a width direction of the mounting element 20, and the second direction y may be a length direction of the mounting element 20.

[0047] In the embodiment of the utility model, a plurality of mounting members 20 are sequentially arranged along the first direction x, and the plurality of mounting members 20 are detachably connected to the support assembly 10, so that each of the mounting members 20 is movable along the second direction y to assemble with the support assembly 10 or detach from the support assembly 10 and, at the same time, each of the mounting members 20 is used to place a plurality of probes 30 thereon, and the plurality of probes 30 are detachable with respect to the mounting members 20.

[0048] In this way, after the mounting member 20 is assembled with the support assembly 10, the probe 30 arranged on the mounting member 20 can be used to provide electrical conduction with the battery, and the probe 30 linked to the wire can perform the forming operation on the battery. In addition, it is possible, when replacing the probe 30, to detach the mounting member 20 corresponding to the probe 30 from the support assembly 10 by moving the mounting member 20 along the second direction y, and then detach the probe 30 from the mounting member 20 without having to remove the entire probe assembly 100, thereby reducing the weight of the removed part, which simplifies and facilitates the operation of replacing the probe 30.

[0049] In some embodiments, the support assembly 10 is provided with a plurality of slide structures 41, the plurality of slide structures 41 are arranged spaced apart along the first direction x, and each of the slide structures 41 is provided with a mounting element 20 capable of sliding along the second direction y. In this way, the placement of the mounting element 20 by means of the slide structure 41 makes it possible to ensure, on the one hand, the support of the mounting element 20 and, on the other hand, the guidance of the mounting element 20 to slide it along the second direction y relative to the support assembly 10.

[0050] In some embodiments, as illustrated in Figures 1-3, the probe assembly 100 further comprises a plurality of chute members 40, the plurality of chute members 40 are arranged on the support member 10 so as to be spaced apart in the first direction x, the chute member 40 is provided with the slide structure 41, and two of the adjacent slide structures 41 respectively located on two adjacent ones of the chute members 40 and adjacent to each other form a slide. In this way, arranging a plurality of chute members 40 spaced apart along the first direction x, by means of the slide structures 41 of two adjacent chute members 40 to form a slide, makes it possible to install a mounting member 20 on a slide and thereby slide the mounting member 20 relative to the support assembly 10 along the second direction y.

[0051] In some embodiments, each of the slide structures 41 comprises a support portion 41a and a guide portion 41b arranged on the chute member 40, two of the support portions 41a located respectively on two adjacent chute members of the chute members 40 and adjacent to each other are configured to support a mounting member 20, two of the guide portions 41b located respectively on two adjacent chute members of the chute members 40 and adjacent to each other are configured to provide guidance for one of the mounting members 20 to slide relative to the slide structure 41 in the second direction y. In this way, two adjacent chute members 40 are used to arrange the mounting element 20, the support portion 41a provides support for the mounting element 20, and the guide portion 41b provides guidance for the mounting element 20, thereby allowing the mounting element 20 to slide in the second direction y relative to the support assembly 10.

[0052] In some embodiments, the support portion 41a is arranged on a first surface of the chute member 40, two of the first surfaces located respectively on two adjacent ones of the chute members 40 and adjacent to each other bear against the surface of the mounting member 20 opposite the support assembly 10 to support one of the mounting members 20, the guide portion 41b is arranged on a second surface of the chute member 40, two of the second surfaces located respectively on two adjacent ones of the chute members 40 and adjacent to each other bear against two sides of the mounting member 20 in the first x direction to provide guidance of one of the mounting members 20 to slide relative to the slide structure 41 in the second y direction.In this way, the presence of the support portion 41a and the guide portion formed on the surface of the chute member 40 makes it possible to ensure the support of the mounting member 20 due to the bearing of the first surface of the chute member 40 against the surface of the mounting member 20 and, at the same time, to ensure the guidance due to the bearing of the second surface of the chute member 40 against two opposite sides of the mounting member 20, thus constituting a simple and reliable structure.

[0053] In some embodiments, as illustrated in Figures 4 to 6, the support assembly 10 comprises a base plate 11 and a plurality of support plates 12, the plurality of support plates 12 are arranged on the base plate 11 so as to be spaced apart in the first direction x, and a separation space 10a is provided between two adjacent ones of the support plates 12, each of the support plates 12 is provided with the chute member 40, and each of the mounting members 20 is correspondingly arranged above one of the separation spaces 10a.In this way, a plurality of support plates 12 are spaced apart along the first direction x, and a separation space 10a with openings is provided between two adjacent support plates 12, and the chute members 40 on the support plates 12 on both sides of the openings of the separation space 10a enable a plurality of mounting members 20 to be detachably connected respectively to the openings of the plurality of separation spaces 10a, so as to position the portion of the probes 30 corresponding to the mounting members 20 in the portion of the corresponding separation spaces 10a, and enable the separation of the . probes 30 corresponding to adjacent mounting elements 20 by the support plates 12 in order to avoid any mutual interference.

[0054] In this case, the mounting element 20 may have a plate-shaped structure. Thanks to its plate-shaped structure, the mounting element 20 cooperates more compactly with the support assembly 10, its thickness, volume and weight are reduced, which facilitates the removal and installation of the probe 30.

[0055] In some embodiments, as illustrated in [Fig.5] and [Fig.7], the probe assembly 100 further comprises a first stopper 13 and a second stopper 14, the first stopper 13 and the second stopper 14 are arranged on the support assembly 10 so as to be spaced apart along the second direction y, the first stopper 13 and the second stopper 14 respectively bear against two ends of the mounting element 20 along the second direction y, in order to lock the mounting element 20. In this way, when it is necessary to replace the probe 30, it is possible to remove the first stopper 13 or the second stopper 14 to unlock the mounting element 20 along the second direction y. It is possible, at this stage, to remove, as a whole, the mounting element 20 and the probe 30 from the support assembly 10 along the second direction y, and to replace the probe 30 from the mounting element 20.Once this is done, it is then possible to move the mounting element 20 along the second direction y to assemble it with the support assembly 10, and to assemble the first stopper 13 or the second stopper 14, which had been removed, to block the mounting element 20 along the second direction y.

[0056] In some embodiments, as illustrated in [Fig. 7] and [Fig. 8], the first stopper 13 comprises a first stopper plate, the second stopper 14 comprises a plurality of second stopper plates, the plurality of second stopper plates are sequentially arranged in the first x-direction, one of two adjacent second stopper plates of the second stopper plates is provided with a protruding portion 14a, and the other of the two second stopper plates is provided with a concave portion 14b, the protruding portion 14a fits into the concave portion 14b, and the first stopper plate bears against one end of the mounting members 20 in the second y-direction, and each of the second limiting plates bears against one end of one of the mounting members 20 that is opposite the first stopper plate in the second direction y in order to lock the plurality of mounting elements 20.In this way, thanks to the cooperation between the protruding portion 14a and the concave portion 14b, it is possible to detach two adjacent second stop plates from each other. When replacing the probe 30, it is possible to remove the second stop plate corresponding to the probe 30 without having to remove the remaining second stop plates. Thus, when the mounting element 20 moves relative to the support assembly 10 and . separates from the support assembly 10, the probe 30 can leave the gap space from the location of the second stop plate. This reduces the weight of the removed second stop plate and facilitates replacement of the probe 30.

[0057] In some embodiments, as illustrated in [Fig. 5], the probe assembly 100 further comprises a third stopper 50 and a fourth stopper 60, the third stopper 50 is arranged at the first stopper 13 and is located at one end of the mounting element 20 in the second y direction, the third stopper 50 bears against a side of the mounting element 20 that is opposite the support assembly 10 in the third z direction in order to lock the mounting element 20 in the third z direction, the fourth stopper 60 is arranged at the second stopper 14 and is located at one end of the mounting element 20 that is opposite the third stopper 50 in the second y direction, the fourth stopper 60 bears against a side of the mounting assembly 20 that is opposite the support 10 along the third z direction in order to block the mounting element 20 along the third z direction.Here, the third z direction, the first x direction and the second y direction are directions not parallel to each other. The mounting element 20 is therefore blocked in the third direction z by the third stopper 50 and the fourth stopper 60, which prevents the mounting element 20 from becoming detached from the support assembly 10 in the third direction z, and makes the assembly of the mounting element 20 and the support assembly 10 more reliable. Furthermore, the movement of the mounting element 20 relative to the support assembly 10 until one end of the mounting element 20 comes to bear against the third stopper 50 arranged on the first stopper 13 and the other end comes to bear against the fourth stopper 60 arranged on the second stopper 14, allows, at this stage, the third stopper 50 and the fourth stopper 60 to fix the mounting element 20 to the support assembly 10.And, when the fixation of the mounting element 20 by the third stopper 50 and / or the fourth stopper 60 is removed, the mounting element 20 is free to move in the second direction y and to separate from the support assembly 10.

[0058] In some embodiments, as illustrated in [Fig. 9], the third stopper 50 comprises a first positioning surface 51 and a second positioning surface 52, the first positioning surface 51 bears against a side of the first stopper 13 which is opposite the second stopper 14 in the second y direction, the second positioning surface 52 bears against a side of the mounting element 20 which is opposite the support assembly 10 in the third z direction in order to lock the mounting element 20 in the third z direction, the fourth stopper 60 comprises a third positioning surface and a fourth positioning surface, the third positioning surface bears against a side of the second stopper 14 which is opposite the first stopper 13 along the second direction y, and the fourth positioning surface bears against a side of the mounting element 20 which is opposite the support assembly 10 along the third direction z in order to lock the mounting element along the third direction z. In this regard, the first positioning surface 51 is intended to bear against the first stopper 13 to ensure that the third stopper 50 takes place on the first stopper 13, and the third positioning surface bears against the second stopper 14 to produce the third stopper 50. The four stops are arranged on the second stopper 14. The second positioning surface 52 and the fourth positioning surface can come into contact with the mounting element 20 to lock its position along the third direction z and thus ensure the fixing of the mounting element 20 and the support assembly 10.

[0059] Optionally, the third stopper 50 further comprises a first chamfer. 53, the first chamfer 53 is spaced from a side of the mounting member 20 that is opposite the support assembly 10 to avoid the mounting member 20, and the fourth stopper 60 further has a second chamfer, the second chamfer is spaced from the side of the mount that is opposite the support assembly 10 in the third z-direction to avoid the mounting member 20. In this way, taking the first chamfer 53 as an example, using the first chamfer 53 to leave space for the mounting member 20 can avoid any interference between the mounting member 20 and the third stopper 50 and the fourth stopper 60 when the mounting member 20 moves in the second y-direction, and thus avoid any difficulty when installing and removing the mounting member 20.It is convenient that one end of the mounting element 20 facing the first stopper 13 along the second direction y enters the space provided by the second positioning surface 52 and the support part 41a. One end of the mounting element 20 facing the second stopper 14 along the second direction y enters the space provided by the fourth positioning surface and the support part 41a to allow the installation of the mounting element 20.

[0060] For the structure of the fourth stopper 60, reference may be made here to the structure of the third stopper 50 as illustrated in [Fig. 9]. The particular structures such as the third positioning surface, the fourth positioning surface, and the second chamfer are thus not shown and identified individually in the attached drawings.

[0061] In some embodiments, as illustrated in [Fig. 10], the probe 30 includes a mounting base 31, a probe body 32, and a conductor assembly 33, the mounting base 31 is removably coupled to the mounting member 20, the probe body 32 is arranged at the mounting base 31, and the conductor assembly 33 is electrically coupled to the probe body 32 and the wire.

[0062] In this way, thanks to the detachable connection of the mounting base 31 to the mounting member 20, it is possible, after detaching the mounting member 20 from the support assembly 10, to detach the mounting base 31 from the mounting member 20 to allow the replacement of the probe 30. The conductive assembly 33 can provide the electrical connection between the probe body 32 and the wire. In this way, the battery can be subjected to the forming operation when the probe body 32 is brought into electrical conduction with the battery.

[0063] In some embodiments, the conductive assembly 33 comprises a support base 331, a conductive strip 332, and a connecting member 333. The support base 331 is connected to the mounting base 31. The conductive strip 332 is arranged on the support base 331. The conductive strip 332 is electrically connected to the wire, and the connecting member 333 is electrically connected to the conductive strip 332 and the probe body 32. In this way, the electrical connection of the conductive strip 332 to the wire allows the wire and the conductive strip 332 to be brought into conductive contact and separated from each other. The attachment does not require a welding process, thereby avoiding the disadvantages of welding and improving the maintainability of the probe 30.

[0064] Optionally, as illustrated in [Fig. 11] and [Fig. 12], the probe assembly 100 further comprises stirrups 70. Each of the mounting members 20 is provided with a plurality of stirrups 70 arranged spaced apart along the second direction y. The plurality of stirrups 70 are configured to support a wire of the probe 30. In this way, thanks to the plurality of stirrups 70 supporting the wire, when the mounting member 20 moves relative to the support assembly 10, the stirrups 70 can simultaneously cause the wire to move, thereby preventing a change in relative position between the wire and the probe 30 arranged on the mounting member 20 which could in particular cause detachment or even breakage and damage to the wire, thereby improving the maintainability of the probe 30.

[0065] In some embodiments, each of the plurality of brackets 70 includes a first connecting portion 71, a support portion 72, and a second connecting portion 73 sequentially connected, one end of the first connecting portion 71 that is opposite the support portion 72 is connected to the mounting member 20, one end of the second connecting portion 73 that is opposite the support portion 72 is connected to the mounting member 20, and one side of the support portion 72 that faces the mounting member 20 is configured to support the lead of the probe 30. In this way, the first connecting portion 71 and the second connecting portion 73, once connected to the mounting member 20, allow a gap to be provided between the support portion 72 and the mounting member 20, leaving space for the leads that can thus rest on the side of the support part 72 opposite the mounting element 20.

[0066] In the embodiment of the first aspect of the utility model, a plurality of mounting members 20 are sequentially arranged along the first direction x, and the plurality of mounting members 20 are detachably connected to the support component, so that each of the mounting members 20 is movable along the second direction y to assemble with the support assembly 10 or detach from the support assembly 10 and, at the same time, each of the mounting members 20 is used to place a plurality of probes 30 thereon, and the plurality of probes 30 are detachable with respect to the mounting members 20.

[0067] In this way, after the mounting member 20 is assembled with the support assembly 10, the probe 30 arranged on the mounting member 20 can be used to provide electrical conduction with the battery, and the probe 30 linked to the wire can perform the forming operation on the battery. In addition, it is possible, when replacing the probe 30, to detach the mounting member 20 corresponding to the probe 30 from the support assembly 10 by moving the mounting member 20 along the second direction y, and then detach the probe 30 from the mounting member 20 without having to remove the entire probe assembly 100, thereby reducing the weight of the removed part, which simplifies and facilitates the operation of replacing the probe 30.
