Description
本発明は、鉛蓄電池の蓋、及び鉛蓄電池に関する。
The present invention relates to a lead-acid battery lid and a lead-acid battery.
例えば特許文献1に記載されているように、自動車等に搭載された鉛蓄電池がある。このような鉛蓄電池は、電極群及び電解液等を収容する電槽と、電槽の開口を閉じる蓋とを備えている。また、鉛蓄電池の蓋には、作業者等が鉛蓄電池を持ち上げるときに使用されるハンドルが取り付けられている。蓋の上面には、凹状の収容部が設けられている。蓋は、収容部内にハンドルを収容することができる。
For example, as described in Patent Document 1, there is a lead storage battery mounted on an automobile or the like. Such a lead storage battery is equipped with the battery case which accommodates an electrode group, electrolyte solution, etc., and the lid | cover which closes the opening of a battery case. Moreover, the handle | steering-wheel used when an operator etc. lift a lead storage battery is attached to the lid | cover of a lead storage battery. A concave housing portion is provided on the upper surface of the lid. The lid can accommodate the handle in the accommodating portion.
蓋は、第1蓋部と、第1蓋部の上面に重ねられる第2蓋部とを備える2重蓋構造を有している。第1蓋部と第2蓋部との間には、排気室が形成されている。第2蓋部の上面には、上述した収容部が形成されている。第2蓋部における第1蓋部側の面には、排気室内のガスを外部に導く排気通路が設けられている。第1蓋部と第2蓋部とは、樹脂によって形成されており、熱溶着によって互いに接合される。
The lid has a double lid structure including a first lid portion and a second lid portion that is overlaid on the upper surface of the first lid portion. An exhaust chamber is formed between the first lid and the second lid. The accommodating portion described above is formed on the upper surface of the second lid portion. An exhaust passage that guides the gas in the exhaust chamber to the outside is provided on a surface of the second lid portion on the first lid portion side. The 1st cover part and the 2nd cover part are formed with resin, and are mutually joined by heat welding.
ここで、第2蓋部における収容部が設けられた部位の厚さは、第2蓋部の他の部位の厚さよりも薄くなる。また、第2蓋部には、厚さが薄い部位にも排気通路が設けられている。すなわち、排気通路のうち第2蓋部の厚さが薄い部位に設けられた部分は、高さが低くなる。このため、第1蓋部と第2蓋部とを熱溶着によって接合したときに、第2蓋部の厚さが薄い部位において、排気通路が溶けた樹脂によって塞がれることが考えられる。排気通路が樹脂で塞がれると、鉛蓄電池は、排気室からガスを排出できなくなる。このため、本技術分野では、排気室からのガスの排出経路を確保することができる鉛蓄電池の蓋、及び鉛蓄電池が求められている。
Here, the thickness of the portion of the second lid where the accommodating portion is provided is thinner than the thickness of the other portion of the second lid. The second lid portion is also provided with an exhaust passage at a portion having a small thickness. That is, the height of the portion of the exhaust passage provided in the portion where the thickness of the second lid portion is thin is low. For this reason, when the 1st cover part and the 2nd cover part are joined by heat welding, it is possible that the exhaust passage is plugged up with the melted resin in the part where the thickness of the 2nd cover part is thin. If the exhaust passage is blocked with resin, the lead-acid battery cannot exhaust gas from the exhaust chamber. For this reason, in this technical field, the lid | cover of a lead storage battery and the lead storage battery which can ensure the discharge path | route of the gas from an exhaust chamber are calculated | required.
本発明の一側面に係る鉛蓄電池の蓋は、ハンドルが取り付けられる鉛蓄電池の蓋であって、鉛蓄電池の電槽の上部に取り付けられる第1蓋部と、第1蓋部に重ねられ、第1蓋部との間に排気室を形成する第2蓋部と、を備え、第2蓋部には、第1蓋部側に向けて窪むとともにハンドルを収容する収容部が設けられ、第2蓋部における第1蓋部側の面には、排気室内のガスを外部に導く排気通路が設けられ、排気通路は、第1蓋部と第2蓋部との重ね方向に沿って見たときに収容部と重なる部位である重なり通路部を有し、第1蓋部には、重なり通路部に対向する部位に、重なり通路部に沿って延在してガスを流通させるガス流通部が設けられ、重なり通路部は、第1蓋部側に開口し、ガス流通部は、第2蓋部側に開口している。

For this reason, when the first lid portion and the second lid portion are joined by heat welding, even if the overlapping passage portion of the exhaust passage in the second lid portion is blocked with melted resin (partially blocked). Even so, the lead storage battery lid can ensure the circulation of the gas in the exhaust passage through the gas circulation section provided in the first lid section. Therefore, the lead storage battery lid can secure a gas discharge path from the exhaust chamber.

The pattern of the peripheral wall portion 110 and the partition wall portions 111 to 115 provided in the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 and the pattern of the peripheral wall portion 210 and the partition wall portions 211 to 215 provided in the second lid portion 20 have a mirror image relationship. ing. The upper surface of the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 and the lower surface of the second lid portion 20 are joined by thermal welding. Thus, exhaust chambers D1 to D6 are formed between the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 and the second lid portion 20. The exhaust chambers D1 to D6 have a function of accumulating mist of the electrolytic solution generated from each cell chamber in the battery case 2 and refluxing the electrolytic solution liquefied in the exhaust chambers D1 to D6 into the cell chamber.
より詳細には、排気室D1~D6は、電槽2内に設けられた6個のセル室の上部にそれぞれ位置している。排気室D1~D6には、排気室D1~D6の底板となる本体部101を貫通する還流孔Hがそれぞれ設けられている。排気室D1~D6は、各排気室D1~D6に設けられた還流孔Hを介して電槽2の6個のセル室にそれぞれ接続されている。排気室D1~D6内には、複数の障害壁Wが設けられている。障害壁Wは、還流孔Hから入り込んだ電解液のミストが各排気室D1~D6内において蛇行して進行するように、電解液のミストの進行方向を変化させる。障害壁Wは、排気室構成部100及び第2蓋部20に設けられている。排気室D1~D6の底板となる本体部101の上面は、各排気室D1~D6内において還流孔Hに向かって徐々に低くなるように傾斜している。
More specifically, the exhaust chambers D1 to D6 are respectively located above the six cell chambers provided in the battery case 2. The exhaust chambers D1 to D6 are each provided with a reflux hole H that passes through the main body 101 serving as a bottom plate of the exhaust chambers D1 to D6. The exhaust chambers D1 to D6 are respectively connected to the six cell chambers of the battery case 2 through the reflux holes H provided in the exhaust chambers D1 to D6. A plurality of obstacle walls W are provided in the exhaust chambers D1 to D6. The obstacle wall W changes the traveling direction of the electrolytic solution mist so that the electrolytic solution mist entering from the reflux holes H meanders and advances in the exhaust chambers D1 to D6.

As shown in FIG. 5, an exhaust passage R that guides the gases in the exhaust chambers D1 to D6 to the outside is provided on the lower surface of the second lid 20 (the surface on the first lid 10 side). 5 and 6, the exhaust passage R is indicated by a broken line. The exhaust passage R is adjacent to the end of the exhaust chambers D1 to D6 on the side where the annular wall W1 is provided. In the present embodiment, no wall portion is provided between the exhaust passage R and the exhaust chambers D1 to D6. The exhaust passage R communicates with the exhaust chambers D1 to D6, and exhausts the gases in the exhaust chambers D1 to D6 to the outside.
より詳細には、本体部201から立ち上がる隔壁部211~215は、それぞれY軸方向における還流孔H(突出部11)が設けられる側の端部が周壁部210の内側面に当接し、Y軸方向における他方(電解液注入口Cが設けられる側)の端部が周壁部210の内側面から所定距離離間している。排気通路Rは、隔壁部211~215の他方の端部と周壁部210との隙間を通り、各排気室D1~D6に連通している。すなわち、排気通路Rは、周壁部210の内側面の一部と、本体部201の下面の一部とによって形成されている。排気通路Rは、排気室構成部100(第1蓋部10)側に開口している。
More specifically, each of the partition walls 211 to 215 rising from the main body 201 is in contact with the inner surface of the peripheral wall 210 at the end where the reflux hole H (projection 11) is provided in the Y-axis direction. The other end in the direction (the side on which the electrolyte injection port C is provided) is separated from the inner surface of the peripheral wall 210 by a predetermined distance. The exhaust passage R passes through the gap between the other end of the partition wall portions 211 to 215 and the peripheral wall portion 210 and communicates with the exhaust chambers D1 to D6. That is, the exhaust passage R is formed by a part of the inner side surface of the peripheral wall part 210 and a part of the lower surface of the main body part 201. The exhaust passage R is open to the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 (first lid portion 10) side.
第2蓋部20におけるX軸方向の両端部には、それぞれ、排気室D1と外部とに連通する排気口H1、及び、排気室D6と外部とに連通する排気口H6が設けられている。各還流孔Hを介して排気室D1~D6内に流入したガスは、排気通路Rを通って排気口H1又はH6から蓋3の外部へ排出される。なお、鉛蓄電池1の設置場所に応じて、排気口H1及びH6のうちの一方の排気口が塞がれ、他の方の排気口のみが使用されてもよい。排気口H1及びH6には、防爆フィルタが設けられていてもよい。
At both ends of the second lid 20 in the X-axis direction, there are provided an exhaust port H1 communicating with the exhaust chamber D1 and the outside, and an exhaust port H6 communicating with the exhaust chamber D6 and the outside, respectively. The gas that has flowed into the exhaust chambers D1 to D6 through the reflux holes H passes through the exhaust passage R and is discharged from the exhaust port H1 or H6 to the outside of the lid 3. Depending on the installation location of the lead storage battery 1, one of the exhaust ports H1 and H6 may be closed and only the other exhaust port may be used. Explosion-proof filters may be provided at the exhaust ports H1 and H6.
上述したように、第2蓋部20の上面には、図1及び図3に示されるように収容部20aが設けられている。収容部20aは、第2蓋部20の本体部201が排気室構成部100(第1蓋部10)側に向けて窪むことによって形成されている。すなわち、第2蓋部20において、収容部20aが設けられた部位の厚さは、他の部位よりも厚さが薄い。なお、図5に示されるように、第2蓋部20の本体部201の下面において、収容部20aが設けられ部位を、「収容部下面201a」と称する。すなわち、収容部下面201aとは、収容部20aにおける第1蓋部10側の面である。
As described above, the housing part 20a is provided on the upper surface of the second lid part 20 as shown in FIGS. The accommodating part 20a is formed by the body part 201 of the second lid part 20 being recessed toward the exhaust chamber constituting part 100 (first lid part 10). That is, in the second lid part 20, the thickness of the part where the accommodating part 20a is provided is thinner than the other parts. Note that, as shown in FIG. 5, a portion where the accommodating portion 20 a is provided on the lower surface of the main body portion 201 of the second lid portion 20 is referred to as “accommodating portion lower surface 201 a”. That is, the accommodating part lower surface 201a is a surface on the first lid part 10 side in the accommodating part 20a.
図5及び図6に示されるように、排気通路Rは、第1蓋部10と第2蓋部20との重ね方向(上下方向)に沿って見たときに、収容部20aと重なる部位を有している。なお、排気通路Rにおいて、第1蓋部10と第2蓋部20との重ね方向に沿って見たときに収容部20aと重なる部位を、「重なり通路部R1」と称する。すなわち、重なり通路部R1は、収容部下面201aを横切っている。重なり通路部R1は、排気室構成部100側に開口している。本体部201の下面のうち収容部下面201aは、収容部20aが設けられていることによって、他の部位よりも第1蓋部10側に位置している。すなわち、排気通路Rのうち重なり通路部R1は、排気通路Rの他の部位よりも通路の高さが低い。
As shown in FIGS. 5 and 6, the exhaust passage R has a portion that overlaps the accommodating portion 20 a when viewed along the overlapping direction (vertical direction) of the first lid portion 10 and the second lid portion 20. Have. Note that a portion of the exhaust passage R that overlaps the housing portion 20a when viewed along the overlapping direction of the first lid portion 10 and the second lid portion 20 is referred to as an “overlap passage portion R1”. In other words, the overlapping passage portion R1 crosses the housing portion lower surface 201a. The overlapping passage portion R1 is open to the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 side. Of the lower surface of the main body 201, the housing lower surface 201a is located closer to the first lid 10 than the other parts by providing the housing 20a. That is, in the exhaust passage R, the overlapping passage portion R1 has a lower passage height than other portions of the exhaust passage R.
また、本実施形態では、図5に示されるように、収容部下面201aに、隔壁部213が設けられている。隔壁部213は、排気室構成部100と第2蓋部20との間に形成される排気室を排気室D3と排気室D4とに仕切っている。
Further, in the present embodiment, as shown in FIG. 5, a partition wall 213 is provided on the housing lower surface 201 a. The partition wall 213 partitions the exhaust chamber formed between the exhaust chamber constituting unit 100 and the second lid 20 into an exhaust chamber D3 and an exhaust chamber D4.
図4及び図6に示されるように、排気室構成部100には、第2蓋部20の重なり通路部R1と対向する部位に、重なり通路部R1に沿って延在してガスを流通させるガス流通部Lが設けられている。図4及び図6では、ガス流通部Lが破線で示されている。ガス流通部Lは、周壁部110の内側面の一部と、本体部101の上面の一部とによって形成されている。ガス流通部Lは、第2蓋部20側に開口している。図6に示されるように、ガス流通部Lと重なり通路部R1とは、上下方向に並んでいる。ガス流通部Lと重なり通路部R1とは、上下方向において互いに連通している。
As shown in FIGS. 4 and 6, in the exhaust chamber constituting unit 100, the gas extends through the overlapping passage portion R <b> 1 and flows through the portion facing the overlapping passage portion R <b> 1 of the second lid portion 20. A gas circulation part L is provided. In FIG.4 and FIG.6, the gas distribution part L is shown with the broken line. The gas circulation part L is formed by a part of the inner side surface of the peripheral wall part 110 and a part of the upper surface of the main body part 101. The gas circulation part L is open to the second lid part 20 side. As shown in FIG. 6, the gas flow part L and the overlapping passage part R1 are arranged in the vertical direction. The gas circulation part L and the overlapping passage part R1 communicate with each other in the vertical direction.
隔壁部(壁部)113は、排気室構成部100と第2蓋部20との間に形成される排気室を排気室D3と排気室D4とに仕切っている。隔壁部113は、第1壁部113a、及び第2壁部113bを有している。第1壁部113aは、Y軸方向に沿って延在している。第1壁部113aは、第2蓋部20の隔壁部213に対向している。第1壁部113aにおける突出部11側の端部は、周壁部110の内側面に当接している。第1壁部113aにおける他方の端部は、ガス流通部Lの近傍に位置している。第2壁部113bの一方の端部は、第1壁部113aのガス流通部L側の端部に連結されている。第2壁部113bの他方の端部は、排気室D3に設けられた電解液注入口Cの縁部を囲む環状壁W1に当接している。
The partition wall (wall) 113 partitions an exhaust chamber formed between the exhaust chamber constituting unit 100 and the second lid 20 into an exhaust chamber D3 and an exhaust chamber D4. The partition wall 113 has a first wall 113a and a second wall 113b. The first wall 113a extends along the Y-axis direction. The first wall portion 113 a faces the partition wall portion 213 of the second lid portion 20. The end of the first wall 113a on the protruding portion 11 side is in contact with the inner surface of the peripheral wall 110. The other end of the first wall 113a is located in the vicinity of the gas circulation part L. One end of the second wall 113b is connected to the end of the first wall 113a on the gas flow part L side. The other end of the second wall 113b is in contact with an annular wall W1 surrounding the edge of the electrolyte inlet C provided in the exhaust chamber D3.
このように、隔壁部113は、ガス流通部Lが設けられる部位を避けるように、第1壁部113aと第2壁部113bとの接続部分において屈曲している。これにより、排気室構成部100は、隔壁部113を屈曲させることによって、ガス流通部Lを設ける領域を確保している。すなわち、隔壁部113は、収容部下面201aに対向する位置に設けられ、且つ、第2蓋部20の重なり通路部R1に対向する部位を避けた位置に設けられている。
Thus, the partition wall 113 is bent at the connection portion between the first wall 113a and the second wall 113b so as to avoid the portion where the gas circulation portion L is provided. Thereby, the exhaust chamber constituting part 100 secures an area in which the gas circulation part L is provided by bending the partition wall part 113. That is, the partition wall 113 is provided at a position facing the accommodating portion lower surface 201a, and is provided at a position avoiding a portion facing the overlapping passage portion R1 of the second lid portion 20.
排気室構成部100において、ガス流通部Lが設けられる部位には隔壁部113等の壁部が設けられていない。これにより、排気室構成部100は、壁部によって遮られることなく、重なり通路部R1に対向する部位をガス流通部Lとして使用できる。
In the exhaust chamber constituting part 100, the wall part such as the partition wall 113 is not provided in the part where the gas circulation part L is provided. As a result, the exhaust chamber constituting unit 100 can use the portion facing the overlapping passage R1 as the gas flow part L without being blocked by the wall.
以上のように、この鉛蓄電池1の蓋3において、第2蓋部20の収容部20aが設けられた部位は、第2蓋部20の他の部位よりも厚さが薄くなる。第2蓋部20に設けられる排気通路Rのうちの重なり通路部R1は、第2蓋部20の厚さが薄い部位に設けられている。第1蓋部10の排気室構成部100には、重なり通路部R1に対向する部位にガス流通部Lが設けられている。このため、第1蓋部10と第2蓋部20とを熱溶着で接合したときに、第2蓋部20の重なり通路部R1が溶けた樹脂で塞がれても(一部が塞がれても)、鉛蓄電池1の蓋3は、排気室構成部100に設けられたガス流通部Lを介して排気通路Rのガスの流通を確保できる。従って、鉛蓄電池1は、排気室D1~D6からのガスの排出経路を確保できる。
As described above, in the lid 3 of the lead storage battery 1, the portion of the second lid 20 where the accommodating portion 20 a is provided is thinner than the other portions of the second lid 20. The overlapping passage portion R1 of the exhaust passage R provided in the second lid portion 20 is provided in a portion where the thickness of the second lid portion 20 is thin. In the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 of the first lid portion 10, a gas circulation portion L is provided at a portion facing the overlapping passage portion R1. For this reason, even when the first lid portion 10 and the second lid portion 20 are joined by heat welding, even if the overlapping passage portion R1 of the second lid portion 20 is blocked by the melted resin (partly blocked). However, the lid 3 of the lead storage battery 1 can ensure the gas flow in the exhaust passage R via the gas flow portion L provided in the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100. Therefore, the lead storage battery 1 can secure a gas discharge path from the exhaust chambers D1 to D6.
排気室構成部100において、収容部下面201aに対向する部位に設けられる隔壁部113は、重なり通路部R1に対向する部位を避けるように屈曲している。この場合、鉛蓄電池1の蓋3は、隔壁部113が設けられていたとしても、排気室構成部100における重なり通路部R1に対向する部位をガス流通部Lとして使用できる。
In the exhaust chamber constituting part 100, the partition wall 113 provided at the part facing the accommodating part lower surface 201a is bent so as to avoid the part facing the overlapping passage part R1. In this case, even if the lid 3 of the lead storage battery 1 is provided with the partition wall portion 113, the portion facing the overlapping passage portion R <b> 1 in the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 can be used as the gas circulation portion L.
以上、本発明の実施形態について説明したが、本発明は、上記実施形態に限定されない。例えば、排気室構成部100に設けられる隔壁部113に代えて、図7に示される隔壁部113Aが設けられていてもよい。隔壁部113Aは、Y軸方向に沿って延在している。隔壁部113Aの両端部は、周壁部110の内側面にそれぞれ当接している。隔壁部113Aには、第2蓋部20の重なり通路部R1と対向する部位に切欠き113cが設けられている。この場合、鉛蓄電池1は、隔壁部113Aが設けられていたとしても、排気室構成部100における重なり通路部R1に対向する部位をガス流通部Lとして使用できる。
As mentioned above, although embodiment of this invention was described, this invention is not limited to the said embodiment. For example, instead of the partition wall 113 provided in the exhaust chamber constituting unit 100, a partition wall 113A shown in FIG. 7 may be provided. The partition wall 113A extends along the Y-axis direction. Both end portions of the partition wall portion 113A are in contact with the inner surface of the peripheral wall portion 110, respectively. The partition wall 113A is provided with a notch 113c at a portion of the second lid 20 that faces the overlapping passage R1. In this case, even if the lead storage battery 1 is provided with the partition wall portion 113 </ b> A, the portion facing the overlapping passage portion R <b> 1 in the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 can be used as the gas circulation portion L.
また、収容部11a及び20aは、蓋3におけるX軸方向の中央部に位置していなくてもよい。また、収容部11a及び20aは、Y軸方向に沿って延在していることに限定されず、X軸方向に沿って延在していてもよい。蓋3には、ハンドルが一つのみ取り付けられる構成であってもよい。ハンドル4及び5は、略U字状を呈していることに限定されず、収容部20aに収容される部位を有していればよい。

The lid 3 may be configured such that only one handle is attached. The handles 4 and 5 are not limited to being substantially U-shaped, and may have a portion that is accommodated in the accommodating portion 20a.
排気室構成部100において、重なり通路部R1に対向する部位にガス流通部Lを確保できれば、隔壁部111~115等の壁部の形状は、図4等に示した形状に限定されない。例えば、図4に示される隔壁部113の第2壁部113bは、排気室D3に設けられた環状壁W1に当接していることに限定されない。例えば、第2壁部113bは、排気室D4に設けられた環状壁W1に当接していてもよく、他の壁部に当接していてもよい。例えば、排気室構成部100において収容部下面201aと対向する部位に、排気室を仕切る隔壁部111~115が設けられていなくてもよい。第2蓋部20の排気通路Rは、図5等に示した構成に限定されない。排気通路Rは、第1蓋部10と第2蓋部20との重ね方向に沿って見たときに、収容部20aと重なる重なり通路部R1を有していればよい。
In the exhaust chamber constituting part 100, the shape of the wall parts such as the partition walls 111 to 115 is not limited to the shape shown in FIG. 4 and the like as long as the gas flow part L can be secured in a portion facing the overlapping passage part R1. For example, the second wall 113b of the partition wall 113 shown in FIG. 4 is not limited to being in contact with the annular wall W1 provided in the exhaust chamber D3. For example, the second wall 113b may be in contact with an annular wall W1 provided in the exhaust chamber D4, or may be in contact with another wall. For example, the partition portions 111 to 115 for partitioning the exhaust chamber may not be provided in a portion of the exhaust chamber constituting portion 100 that faces the accommodating portion lower surface 201a. The exhaust passage R of the second lid 20 is not limited to the configuration shown in FIG.
