Abstract

A locking confirmation device of multiple electrode contacts includes an electrode, a terminal bolt, a sensing unit and a positioning bolt. The electrode includes an electrode thread and a positioning thread. The terminal bolt is used for locking a conductor and the electrode thread. The terminal bolt includes a positioning recess. The sensing unit includes an insulated cover, a first contact, a second contact, an elastic member and an voltage signal input connector. When the elastic member is extruded, a circuit is formed for returning a voltage signal of a node of the electrode. The positioning bolt is used for fixing a detection sensor assembly on the positioning thread. When a head portion of the positioning bolt is received within the positioning recess, the terminal bolt is led to a locking state by the head portion of the positioning bolt. Therefore, a fault of an electricity system is prevented.

Claims (9)

1. A locking confirmation device of multiple electrode contacts, the locking confirmation device comprising:

an electrode comprising an electrode thread and a positioning thread;

a terminal bolt for locking a conductor and the electrode thread, wherein the terminal bolt comprises at least one positioning recess;

a sensing unit comprising an insulated cover, a first contact, a second contact, an elastic member and an voltage signal input connector, wherein when the elastic member is extruded, a circuit is formed for returning a voltage signal of a node of the electrode; and

a positioning bolt for fixing a detection sensor assembly on the positioning thread, wherein when a head portion of the positioning bolt is received within the positioning recess, the terminal bolt is led to a locking state by the head portion of the positioning bolt.

2. The locking confirmation device of multiple electrode contacts according to claim 1 further comprising an extra detection sensor assembly of an extra electrode, wherein the extra electrode and the electrode have the same potential.

3. The locking confirmation device of multiple electrode contacts according to claim 2 further comprising at least a bias resistor for forming a voltage divider circuit, wherein when the elastic member is not extruded, an unique drop voltage signal is transmitted to a battery management component.

4. The locking confirmation device of multiple electrode contacts according to claim 3 further comprising a control unit for identifying fault electrode contacts through measuring the unique drop voltage signal.

5. A locking confirmation device for detecting fault electrode contacts of nodes of multiple electrodes comprising at least two detection sensor assemblies and a voltage signal input connector, wherein each detection sensor assembly comprises an insulation assembly, a first contact, a second contact and an elastic member, and wherein when the elastic member is extruded by a locking of a positioning bolt and a related terminal bolt, a circuit is formed for conducting the first contact and the second contact.
