Description

[Detailed Description of the Invention] (Industrial Application Field) The present invention relates to a battery support device for supporting an automobile battery.

(Prior Art) Conventionally, as shown in FIGS. 1 to 8, batteries have been supported by using different battery band support devices depending on the size and shape of the battery. That is, in the case of a small battery, as shown in FIGS. 1 and 2, the curved part of the tightening bolt 3 is inserted into the hole of the battery holder 2 at the bottom of the battery body 1, and the upper part of the battery body 1 is opened. A structure has been used in which the battery body 1 is held down by a battery band 4, and the tightening bolt 3 and the battery band 4 are engaged by tightening a nut 5, thereby tightening and supporting the battery body 1 as a whole. The shape of the battery band 4 is as follows.
It has a partially bent shape to avoid the battery fluid plug 6 protruding above the battery main body 4.

In the case of a large battery, the structure may be similar to that of a small battery, but the battery band 4 must be larger in size than that for a small battery, as shown in FIGS. 3 and 4.

In addition, in the case of a special-shaped battery whose dimensions differ from those of a general standard product, since the dimensions of the battery fluid port plug 6 are large, a structure using two parts as shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, that is, a part 7 is used. A structure is used in which the tightening bolt 3 is passed through a hole provided in the hole, and the lateral protruding portion of the pad 7 is inserted between the battery band 4 and the battery body 1, thereby avoiding the battery fluid plug 6. become. Alternatively, as another structure, as shown in FIGS. 7 and 8, a battery band 4 having an L-shaped cross section is installed vertically to avoid the battery fluid plug 6 and tighten the tightening bolts. 3 was installed diagonally to tighten the battery body 1.

However, due to these differences in battery size and shape, using different battery bands or different structures increases the number of parts, hindering standardization, and also tends to complicate the installation procedure. .

(Object of the invention) An object of the present invention is to provide a battery support device that eliminates the above-mentioned drawbacks of conventional battery support devices.

(Structure of the invention) In order to achieve the above object, the present invention provides a battery support device having the above-described structure, in which the shape of the band is such that one end and the middle part of the engagement part with the tightening bolt are connected to the other end of the band. The shape is raised higher than the engaging part and has a step, and the part through which the tightening bolt is inserted is formed into a plurality of holes, elongated holes, or notches, and the tightening bolt inserted into this part is formed with a pad. The structure includes a battery band that is passed through and tightened.

(Example) Hereinafter, an example of the present invention will be described with reference to FIGS. 9 to 19. First, in FIGS. 9 and 10, one end of the battery band 4, in which two holes 8 for tightening bolts are provided on each side, and the middle part of the battery band 4 are made higher than the other end of the battery band 4, so that there is a step difference. will be established. As shown by the two-dot chain line in FIG. 10, the pad 7 is positioned between one end of the battery band 4 in which the tightening bolt hole 8 is provided and the battery body 1, the tightening bolt 3 is passed through it, and the pad 7 is tightened. This is to avoid the battery fluid plug 6 that protrudes upward from the battery body 1 when the bolt 3 is tightened. Next, the cross-sectional shape of the battery band 4 was made into a U-shaped edge-folded shape in order to increase the stress against bending.

By forming the battery band 4 in such a stepped shape, it becomes possible to support different types of batteries with the same structure.
That is, in the case of a small battery, use the inner tightening bolt hole 8 as shown in FIG.
The battery is supported by inserting a pad 7 on one side, and in the case of a large battery, an outer tightening bolt hole 8 is used as shown in FIG. 18. Further, even in the case of a battery having a special shape, it is possible to support it with a similar structure as shown in FIG.

Next, in FIG. 9, the tightening bolt hole 8
We have shown an example in which the number of batteries is two on each side, but this can be increased to three depending on the type or size of the battery.
Of course, there is no problem with it being more than just one place. moreover,
The shape of this tightening bolt hole 8 can also be made into a long hole 8a and an elongated semicircular notch shape 8b as shown in FIGS. 12 and 13.

By configuring the shape of the portion through which the tightening bolt 3 is inserted in this manner, the tightening position of the nut 5 can be varied and adjusted to match the size of the battery body 1. Further, since the tightening bolt 3 passes through the pad 7, the pad 7 does not move freely, so that effective tightening can be performed.

Next, although FIGS. 9 to 11 show the case where the width of the battery band 4 is constant in the longitudinal direction, this is shown in FIGS. 14 to 1.
As shown in FIG. 6, it is possible to make the width of the middle part of the battery band 4 narrower than the width of both end parts where the tightening bolt holes 8 are provided. By narrowing the width of the intermediate portion in this way, it becomes possible to more smoothly replenish the battery fluid port plug 6 located directly below the intermediate portion with battery fluid. Here, as shown in FIG. 15, the edge folded part at the middle part of the battery band 4 is larger than the edge folded part at both ends where the tightening bolt holes 8 are provided, but this is due to the width of the middle part. This is because the bending stress needs to be increased accordingly as the battery band 4 is made narrower, and the material dimensions when processing the battery band 4 by pressing or other methods are taken into consideration.

(Effect of the invention) Since the battery support device of the present invention has a battery band with a stepped shape as described above, it can be used with many types of batteries and has a specially shaped liquid spout. Only one type of band is sufficient for the battery. Therefore, standardization of parts can be achieved and costs can be reduced. Furthermore, the attachment can be carried out using a common support structure in which only one part is used for one battery band, and the battery body can be adjusted in the width direction. These have the effect of eliminating installation errors and facilitating maintenance and management.
