Description

【0001】
【産業上の利用分野】
本発明は、密閉形電池の排気構造に関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
密閉形鉛蓄電池は、使用中の内圧上昇による電槽変形などを防止するため、安全弁を排気部の排気筒に装着し、排気部上部に排気栓、あるいは防爆構造とするためのフィルターを設けた排気栓を取り付けている。
【0003】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
安全弁の取り付け作業は蓄電池の初充電後に行うが、初充電後の電池内圧は充電による発熱のために上昇傾向となっており、安全弁を装着してもその内圧によって安全弁が外れてしまうことがある。
【0004】
このような安全弁の外れは、安全弁とともに排気栓を装着してしまえば、排気栓によって安全弁の自由度がある程度小さくできるので、外れが抑制できる。
【0005】
しかしながら、安全弁が外れるという状態まではいかなくとも、浮き上がった状態等、つまり電池として気密不良の状態となってしまうことがある。まして、排気栓を取り付けた後に安全弁の装着状態を確認することは、煩雑な作業であり、実質上不可能なことである。
【0006】
加えて、このような電池では、気密不良によって電池容量が早期に低下するといった問題がある。
【0007】
そこで、本発明は上記課題を解決するためになされたものであり、その目的とするところは、安全弁の浮き上がり等による装着不良を積極的に防止した密閉形鉛蓄電池を提供することにある。
【0008】
【課題を解決するための手段】
発明は、密閉型鉛蓄電池に関し、排気栓と、該排気栓が装着される排気部とを備え、前記排気部は、安全弁と、安全弁が装着される排気筒と、安全弁の装着状態が保持される安全弁押え体とを有し、前記安全弁押え体は上部又は上部と側部とに開口部が形成されており、前記排気部に形成された係止手段と、安全弁押え体に形成された係止手段とにより、該押え体が排気部に係止されていることを特徴とする。
【0011】
【作用】
本発明になる密閉形鉛蓄電池では、積極的に設けた安全弁押え体によって安全弁が係止されているので、安全弁は良好な装着状態を維持できる。
【0012】
それゆえに、排気筒上部にはめ込まれた安全弁が初充電を含む充放電時の圧力変化によって、外れたり、外れかかったり、もしくは浮き上がったりすることがない。
【0013】
【実施例】
以下、本発明になる密閉形鉛蓄電池について、好適な実施例に基づいて詳述する。
【0014】
図1は、本発明になる密閉形鉛蓄電池に装着する安全弁押え体の一実施例を示す説明図である。
【0015】
図において、5は安全弁押え体である。押え体5は、2の開口部と、1の係止手段と、10の押え体本体とよりなる。押え体5は、ここでは、横断面形状を円形とし、全体形状をキャップ形状としている。本体10の上部には、安全弁の排気機能を損ねないよう、加えて安全弁の装着具合が目視できるようにするため、安全弁の断面形状よりも若干小さい円形の開口部2が形成されている。
【0016】
さらに視認性をよくするために、全体叉は/及び一部を透明としてもよい。
【0017】
そして、本体10の下部周縁には、排気部の係止手段に係止される係止手段1がつば状に形成されている。
【0018】
また、押え体5は樹脂製であり、特に、つば状の係止手段1は、排気部の係止手段に係止しやすいよう、弾力性を持たせている。
【0019】
図2は、安全弁押え体を装着した密閉形鉛蓄電池の単部断面図を示した図である。
【0020】
図において、3は電池の蓋、4はゴム製安全弁、12は排気部、6は排気部12に螺合装着されるフィルタ付排気栓、13は排気筒である。
【0021】
尚、他の符号は、先に示した符号と同じ内容を意味する。
【0022】
本実施例では、排気栓6が排気部12に螺合装着されている。
【0023】
ゴム弁4は、排気筒13にはめ込まれており、ゴム弁14の上面端部に接触するよう安全弁押え体5は、押え体5の係止手段1と、排気部12の係止手段14とにより係止されている。
【0024】
このとき、押え体5は、排気部12にワンタッチではめ込めるので、容易に取り付けることができる。
【0025】
排気部12の係止手段14は、ここでは排気栓6が装着される螺合溝の最下部の溝を利用しているが、別に設けてもよい。
【0026】
尚、安全弁押え体5の形状もこれに限るものでなく、特にキャップ形状のもの、上面視X形状やY形状であるような異形のキャップ形状、叉は板状体をおり曲げてU字状やコ字状に形成されたものの場合には、単セルや2セルといったセル数の少ない密閉形鉛蓄電池において、非常に取り付けやすいので、作業が煩雑にならずにすむ。
【0027】
さらに、上面視X形状やY形状であるようなキャップ形状の押え体では、上部と側部との両方に開口部が形成されているので、上部のみのものよりも弁の状態をより的確に視認できる。
【0028】
加えて、係止手段1,14の形状も本実施例に限るものでなく、係止手段1,及び14とで係止叉は及び嵌合が容易にできるものであれば足りる。
【0029】
【発明の効果】
発明は、密閉型鉛蓄電池に関し、排気栓と、該排気栓が装着される排気部とを備え、前記排気部は、安全弁と、安全弁が装着される排気筒と、安全弁の装着状態が保持される安全弁押え体とを有し、前記安全弁押え体は上部又は上部と側部とに開口部が形成されており、前記排気部に形成された係止手段と、安全弁押え体に形成された係止手段とにより、該押え体が排気部に係止されていることを特徴とする。
【0032】
本発明になる密閉形鉛蓄電池では、積極的に設けた安全弁押え体によって安全弁が係止されているので、安全弁は良好な装着状態を維持できる。
【0033】
それゆえに、排気筒上部にはめ込まれた安全弁が初充電を含む充放電時の圧力変化によって、外れたり、外れかかったり、もしくは浮き上がったりすることがない。
【0034】
また、キャップ形状とすることにより、排気部への取付が容易となる。
【0035】
さらに、安全弁押え体の形状が安全弁全体を覆ってしまうような形状とした場合には、該押え体に開口部を設けたり、叉は/及び押え体の全体もしくは一部分を透明とすることにより、安全弁の装着状態を的確に確認できる。

[Industrial application fields]
The present invention relates to an exhaust structure for a sealed battery.
[0002]
[Prior art]
The sealed lead-acid battery is equipped with a safety valve on the exhaust pipe of the exhaust part and a filter for making an exhaust plug or explosion-proof structure on the upper part of the exhaust part in order to prevent deformation of the battery case due to an increase in internal pressure during use. An exhaust plug is attached.
[0003]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
Safety valve installation work is performed after the initial charge of the storage battery, but the internal pressure of the battery after the initial charge tends to rise due to heat generated by charging, and even if the safety valve is attached, the safety valve may come off due to the internal pressure .
[0004]
When the exhaust valve is attached together with the safety valve, the safety valve can be prevented from coming off because the degree of freedom of the safety valve can be reduced to some extent by the exhaust valve.
[0005]
However, even if the safety valve is not released, it may be lifted up, that is, the battery may be in a poorly sealed state. In addition, it is a complicated task to check the mounting state of the safety valve after attaching the exhaust plug, which is virtually impossible.
[0006]
In addition, such a battery has a problem in that the battery capacity is quickly reduced due to a hermetic failure.
[0007]
Accordingly, the present invention has been made to solve the above-described problems, and an object of the present invention is to provide a sealed lead-acid battery that actively prevents mounting failure due to a lift of a safety valve.
