The present invention will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It is understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not intended to limit the invention.

The basic idea of the present invention is that: a battery of the self-provided charging structure is provided with a working status indicator, and the working status indicator is electrically connected to the circuit board of the battery, which indicates the current working state of the battery of the self-provided charging structure.

As shown in FIG. 1 and FIG. 2, the present invention provides a battery 1 with a self-contained charging structure, including a rechargeable battery 11, an outer casing 12, a cap 13 and a circuit board 14, positive and negative electrodes and settings of the rechargeable battery 11. The positive and negative electrodes on the circuit board 14 are connected, and the circuit board 14 is connected to a USB power plug 15 . The battery 1 of the self-provided charging structure further includes at least one working status indicator 16 , and the working status indicator 16 and the circuit board 14 are electrically connected. Sexual connection.

The rechargeable battery 11 is disposed in the outer casing 12 that is adapted thereto, and the cap 13 can be attached to the USB power plug 15 . When the cap 13 is opened and the USB power plug 15 is plugged into the corresponding socket, the battery 1 of the self-contained charging structure starts charging. The positive electrode of the battery 1 of the self-contained charging structure is placed at the tip end of the cap 13.

In one embodiment of the present invention, the battery 1 of the aesthetically self-contained charging structure can be drawn on the outer casing 12 according to the needs of the user, and the positive and negative electrodes can be identified. Typically, the outer casing 12 has a cylindrical shape, and the cap 13 also has a cylindrical shape. For other special cases, some appliances that require a rectangular parallelepiped rechargeable battery can be placed in a rectangular shape, and the cap 13 is also changed accordingly. When the existing integrated rechargeable battery is completed, the indicator light is clearly marked, and the charging work is not completed or the charging contact is not reflected, which causes the user to use confusion. It is known that the use of the product may not be known to be charged, which brings inconvenience to the user.

In the present invention, the operation status indicator 16 is set on the battery 1 of the self-provided charging structure, and the operation status indicator 16 is illuminated in the state of charge of the battery 1 of the self-provided charging structure. The color of the light can be set according to user needs, such as blue or green. In another embodiment of the present invention, the working status indicator 16 includes a charging progress status indicator and a charging end status indicator. In the battery charging state and the battery is fully charged, the charging progress status indicator and The charge end status indicator shows a different light color. For example, in the charging state of the battery 1 of the self-provided charging structure, the charging status indicator is illuminated to display red light; and in the fully charged state of the battery 1 of the self-provided charging structure, the charging end status indicator is illuminated, indicating green Light. According to the light displayed by the working status indicator light 16, the user can know the working condition of the battery 1 of the current self-supplied charging structure, and does not remove the battery 1 of the self-provided charging structure without being fully charged. The battery 1 of the charging structure works normally. In the present invention, the operational status indicator 16 is fabricated using an LED (Light Emitting Diode). The LED is a semiconductor solid-state light-emitting device which uses a solid semiconductor chip as a light-emitting material. When a forward voltage is applied to both ends, carriers in the semiconductor recombine to cause photon emission to generate light. The LED can emit red, yellow, blue, green, blue, orange, purple, and white light directly. LEDs are environmentally friendly and have a long service life.

In one embodiment of the invention, the operational status indicator light 16 is disposed between the outer casing 12 and the cap 13. Preferably, the operational status indicator 16 is annular and nested between the outer casing 12 and the cap 13. The working status indicator 16 is set in a ring shape to make it easier to match the outer casing 12 and the cap 13, and since the working status indicator 16 has a large display area, it is easier for the user to see the working state of the working status indicator 16.

In the prior art, when the battery pack cover is placed separately during charging, it is easy to lose and is not convenient to use. In one embodiment of the invention, the cap 13 is movably coupled to the outer casing 12. The connection may be such that the cap 13 is hingedly connected to the outer casing 12 or the cap 13 is connected to the outer casing 12 by a cord. Holes may be formed in the cap 13 and the outer casing 12 by means of a rope connection. Preferably, a through hole is provided in the outer casing 12 and the cap 13 through which the cap 13 is movably connected to the outer casing 12. Of course, it is also possible to provide a pair of hinges on the cap 13 and the outer casing 12, so that when the cap 13 is opened, the cap 13 is not easily lost by the USB power source plug 15 to the battery 1 of the self-contained charging structure. It is connected to the corresponding computer or imaging device through the USB power plug 15 to charge the battery 1 of the self-provided charging structure. In addition, the positive pole of the circuit board 14 is preferably directly connected to the positive pole piece of the battery. When the existing rechargeable battery is used, the positive and negative electrodes of the circuit board pass through the electronic components such as the charging board, and then connect the positive and negative poles of the original single battery body, thereby affecting the normal consumption of the battery power. In the present invention, the positive electrode of the circuit board 16 is directly connected to the positive electrode tab of the battery, which ensures that the battery power is sufficiently applied to the product to be used.

In summary, the present invention provides an operating status indicator on the battery of the self-contained charging structure, the working status indicator being electrically connected to the circuit board of the battery, which indicates the current operating state of the battery of the self-contained charging structure. The charging process and functional status of the battery with its own charging structure are displayed with lights of different colors, making it easy for the user to recognize the current working state of the battery that recognizes the self-contained charging structure. In addition, the cap of the battery of the self-contained charging structure is movably connected to the outer casing, so that during the process of opening the cap for charging, the cap is still not separated from the battery of the self-provided charging structure, and is not easily lost. Moreover, the positive pole of the circuit board of the self-provided charging structure is directly connected to the positive pole piece of the battery, so that the positive and negative poles of the original battery body are directly connected to the electric product when the battery of the self-provided charging structure is used, and the charging is not performed. The boards are connected to each other to ensure that the battery power of the self-contained charging structure is fully applied to the product. Finally, the battery of the self-provided charging structure provided by the invention is a charging structure and is integrated with the galvanic body, and is convenient to carry and use.

The invention may, of course, be embodied in various other embodiments and various modifications and changes can be made in accordance with the present invention without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Changes and modifications are intended to be included within the scope of the appended claims.
