Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] [Industrial Application Field] This invention relates to a battery case mounting mechanism for a battery mounted on a vehicle such as an unmanned vehicle.

[Prior Art] Currently, vehicles such as unmanned vehicles that run using batteries as a power source have been put into practical use, and conventionally, batteries have been installed in such vehicles using mechanisms as shown in Figures 4 and 5. It is carried out by
That is, as shown in these figures, a roll 2, a fixed stopper 3, and a stopper locking part 4 are provided on a base 1 fixedly attached to a vehicle frame, and a front side wall (first A handle 6 and a stopper holder 7 are respectively provided on the outside of the right side wall in Figure 4).

In the mechanism provided in this way, when the battery case 5 containing the battery is installed in a vehicle, the battery case 5 is attached to the roll 2 of the base 1.
After placing the case 5 on the top, move the case 5 to the left side in FIG. The battery is fixed to the vehicle by being locked to the stopper locking portion 4 of No. 1. On the other hand, when removing the battery case 5 built into the vehicle, pull out the stopper 8 from the stopper holder 7, temporarily place the stopper 8 near the vehicle, then grasp the handle 6 and move the battery case 5 towards you (the first After pulling it out to the right side in the figure, the battery case 5 was lifted and removed from the base 1.

[Problems to be Solved by the Invention] Incidentally, in the conventional battery case 5 mounting mechanism described above, since the stopper 8 is removable from the base 1 and the battery case 5, the battery case 5 cannot be assembled or removed. There was a problem that there was a risk of losing the stopper 8 during the operation.

Furthermore, when assembling/removing the battery case 5, it is necessary to grasp the stopper 8 to lock the stopper 8, or to grasp the handle 6 to push or pull out the battery case 5. Therefore, both the handle 6 and the stopper 8 have to be changed over, which has the drawback of being troublesome.

This invention was made in view of the above circumstances, and its purpose is to provide a battery case mounting mechanism that eliminates the risk of losing any components and allows for easy assembly/removal work. There is a particular thing.

[Means for Solving the Problems] This invention includes: case support fittings having an L-shaped cross section attached to both sides of a battery case; a parallel frame provided on a vehicle and on which the case support fittings are suspended; A low friction member affixed to the upper surface of the parallel frame, a hole provided in each of the parallel frames (or the frame support fittings), and a case support fitting (or the parallel frame) corresponding to the holes. and a convex member provided at each.

[Function] According to this invention, the battery can be incorporated into the vehicle.
When removing the battery case, you can lift the battery case to (or from) the parallel frame by holding each case support metal fitting, and the low-friction member of the parallel frame allows the case support metal fittings to slide over the frame. The battery can be moved smoothly, and therefore the battery can be easily installed and removed from the vehicle. Furthermore, since all the parts are attached to the battery case or the vehicle, there is no risk of losing any parts.

[Embodiment] FIG. 1 is a perspective view showing the configuration of a battery case 10 according to an embodiment of the invention, and FIGS. It is a front view. In FIG. 1, a battery 20 is housed in a battery case 10. As shown in FIG. Both side plates 10a, 1 of this battery case 10
Case support fittings 11, 11 each bent into an L-shape are attached to the upper outer side of 0b. Short cylindrical positioning pins 12, 12 are attached downwardly to approximately the center of the lower surfaces of the horizontal portions 11a, 11a of these case support fittings 11, 11, respectively. The corners of the lower ends of the positioning pins 12, 12 are shaved off to facilitate fitting.

On the other hand, a vehicle on which the battery case 10 is mounted is provided with frames 13, 13 in parallel, as shown in FIGS. 2 and 3. Positioning holes 14, 14 into which the positioning pins 12, 12 of the battery case 10 are fitted are formed approximately at the center of the frames 13, 13, respectively. Further, guide plates 15, 15 having a low coefficient of friction are attached to the upper surfaces of the frames 13, 13, respectively.

In the above configuration, when the battery case 10 containing the battery 20 is installed in a vehicle,
First, lift the battery case 10 by holding the case support fittings 11 and 11, and
One end (the left end in FIG. 2) of each of the case support fittings 11, 11 of No. 0 is placed on the frames 13, 13. Next, when the battery case 10 is pushed forward, the case support fittings 11, 11 are attached to the frame 1.
It moves while sliding forward (to the left in FIG. 2) on the guide plates 15 and 15 of No. 3 and 13. When the positioning pins 12, 12 reach the positioning holes 14, 14, the weight of the battery 20 causes the positioning pins 12, 12 to fit into the positioning holes 14, 14, respectively. In this way, the battery case 10 is fixed to the vehicle. Next, when removing the battery case 10 assembled as described above from the vehicle, first hold the case support fittings 11 and 11, pull the battery case 10 upwards, and place it in the positioning hole.
While pulling out the positioning pins 12 and 12 from 4 and 14 respectively, pull the battery case 10 toward you (to the right in FIG.
5 and 15, move the battery case 10 forward and remove it from the vehicle.

In the above embodiment, the positioning pins 12, 12 are provided on the case support fittings 11, 11 side of the battery case 10, and the positioning holes 14, 14 are provided on the frames 13, 13 side, respectively. Of course, the opposite configuration may be used in the invention.

[Effects of the invention] As explained above, according to this invention, case support fittings having an L-shaped cross section are attached to both sides of the battery case, and parallel case support fittings provided on the vehicle and from which the case support fittings are suspended. a frame, a low-friction member affixed to the upper surface of the parallel frame, a recess provided in the parallel frame (or the case support fitting), and a recess provided in the case support fitting (or the case support fitting) corresponding to the recess. flame)
Since the case support bracket supports the battery case and also functions as a handle, it is easy to assemble the battery case.
It is easy to remove and remove, and the low-friction members allow smooth installation/removal work, and there are no parts to be removed like in conventional mechanisms, so there is no risk of losing these parts. There is an effect.
