Description

Detailed Description of the Invention

[0001]

BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION 1. Field of the Invention The present invention relates to a battery welder, and more particularly to improvement of the structure of a battery welder which facilitates maintenance and inspection of batteries.

[0002]

2. Description of the Related Art A conventional battery welding machine is shown in FIGS. In these figures, the battery welder 50 is configured to include a battery case 52 in which a battery 51 is housed, and a welder section 53 placed on the upper portion of the battery case 52.

The battery case 52 has a substantially box-like shape with an open upper end, and a battery case 52 has a cushioning member 54 provided inside the battery case 52.
The individual batteries 51 are stored. These batteries 5
1 is connected to the welder section 53 via a cable 55 and a connection outlet 56. Further, a total of four casters 57 are rotatably supported on the lower portion of the battery case 52, whereby the battery welding machine 50 can be easily moved to a predetermined work area.

The welder section 53, which is mounted on the upper end of the battery case 52, is adapted to be connected by a lock 58, and a handle 59 is fixed to the upper surface portion thereof. The welder section 53 can be held and removed from the battery case 52.

In the figure, reference numeral 60 indicates a voltmeter, reference numeral 61 indicates a welding current adjusting knob, and reference numeral 62 indicates a welding output terminal.

[0006]

The conventional battery welding machine 50 is generally used in a place where there is no power source for charging the battery, and the charging / discharging of the battery is repeated. The decrease is quick. Therefore, the replenishment work of the battery liquid is frequently required, but in this case, after the lock 58 connecting the battery case 52 and the welder section 53 is released, the handle 59 must be lifted and removed.

However, since the welder section 53 accommodates a transformer (not shown), a reactor for preventing arc cut, and the like inside, the total weight of the welder section 53 becomes heavy, so that one person can remove it. It has the disadvantage of being difficult.

Moreover, when the operator hurt his back when lifting the welding machine portion 53 or dropped the welding machine portion 53, there was a disadvantage that the operator was in danger.

[0009]

SUMMARY OF THE INVENTION It is an object of the present invention to provide a battery welding machine which improves the disadvantages of the prior art, and in particular can perform maintenance and inspection work such as battery liquid replenishment work extremely easily and quickly. To that end.

[0010]

DISCLOSURE OF THE INVENTION The present invention is a battery welding machine having a battery case in which a battery is housed and a welding machine portion mounted on the battery case, and a battery in the battery case. It is intended to achieve the above-mentioned object by adopting a configuration in which a holder for holding the battery is provided and the holder is provided so as to be able to be taken in and out from the battery case.

[0011]

When the maintenance and inspection work of the battery is required, the work can be immediately performed by pulling out the holder housed in the battery case, while after the work is finished,
By pushing the holder into the battery case, a predetermined welding operation becomes possible.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS An embodiment of the present invention will be described below with reference to the drawings. The same parts as those in the conventional example are designated by the same reference numerals, and the description will be omitted or simplified.

1 and 2 show the overall schematic construction of the battery welding machine according to this embodiment, and FIG. 3 shows a top view of the holder. Further, FIG. 4 shows a schematic configuration in which a part of the battery case is cut out. In these figures, a battery welder 1 includes a battery case 2, a battery holder 5 accommodated in the battery case 2, and a welder unit 3 placed on the battery case 2. Has been done.

The battery case 2 is provided in a substantially box shape and, as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6,
It has a frame shape with the upper end and one end in the longitudinal direction open.
A pair of left and right rail pieces 2A for guiding and supporting the holder 5 and a connecting piece 2B for connecting the rail pieces 2A are provided on the bottom surface. In addition, each rail piece 2A has a holder 5
Stopper 2B is formed.

The holder 5 has a cushioning member 54 similar to that of the conventional example.
A total of four batteries 4 are held via. The cable 55 connecting between each terminal 4A of the battery 4 and the outlet 56 is provided relatively long, and the middle thereof is gently held by the clamp 7, whereby
The holder 5 can be smoothly taken in and out. Further, one caster 8 is pivotally supported on the bottom surface of the holder 5, so that the loading and unloading can be facilitated while supporting the load of the holder 5 itself. Further, at the right end of the holder 5 in FIGS. 5 and 7, the engagement piece 5 that engages with the stopper 2B is provided.
A is fixed, so that the holder 5 is prevented from falling off.

A lock 10 is provided between the drawer portion of the holder 5 and the battery case 2 so that the holder 5 does not fall off from the battery case 2 at all times.

In the above configuration, maintenance of the battery 4
When inspection work is required, the holder 5 can be pulled out after opening the lock 10 (see FIG. 8). At this time, the caster 8 provided on the bottom surface of the holder 5 can be smoothly pulled out, and the engaging piece 5A is engaged with the stopper 2B, so that the holder 5 may fall out of the battery case 2. Is also avoided. Also,
By locking the lock 10 when the battery welder 1 is used, natural disengagement can be prevented.

According to the structure of the present embodiment, the holder 5 is provided in the battery case 2, and the holder 5 is made to hold the battery 4 so that the holder 5 can be taken in and out of the battery case 2. As described above, the operator's burden of lifting the welder section and separating it from the battery case 2 is dramatically reduced, and the danger caused by a drop or the like is eliminated.

Since the casters 8 are provided in the holder 5, the holder 5 can be taken in and out very smoothly, and the battery 4 can be maintained and inspected in a short time. Further, the engagement piece 5A provided on the holder 5 is provided with the stopper 2B provided on the battery case 2.
Since the holder 5 does not fall off from the battery case 2 when the holder 5 is pulled out, it can be expected that the work can be performed safely from this point as well.

The number of batteries 4 in the embodiment does not limit the present invention at all, and can be increased or decreased as necessary.

Further, the frame structure of the battery case 2 and the holder 5 is not limited to the illustrated constitutional example, for example, the stopper 2
The structure of B and the engaging piece 5A can be replaced with a commonly-used drawer stopper structure. In short, the present invention can be modified in various ways as long as the holder 5 can be pulled out from the battery case 2.

[0022]

According to the present invention, the holder is housed in the battery case so that the holder can be taken in and out, and the battery is held in the holder. Therefore, when replenishing the battery liquid, it is sufficient to simply pull out the holder. In addition, there is an effect that it is possible to provide a battery welding machine that has an unprecedented excellent effect that battery maintenance and inspection work can be performed extremely easily and quickly.
