The energy storage battery connector can be used for wiring energy storage systems, energy storage batteries, lithium power sources, solar energy storage systems, and various other energy storage devices.


What are the advantages of energy storage connectors


1. Improve production processes




Energy storage connectors simplify the assembly process of electronic products. It also simplifies the mass production process; Precision connector




2. Easy to repair




If electronic components have problems, they can be quickly replaced when installing energy storage connectors; electrical contact




3. Easy to advance




With the advancement of skills, components can be updated when installing energy storage connectors, replacing old ones with new and better ones; Industrial connectors




4. Flexibility in Progress Planning




The use of energy storage connectors provides engineers with greater flexibility in planning and integrating new products, as well as building systems from components;




Interface method between energy storage connector circuit boards - Precision socket and pin insertion

储能连接器

The interface methods between energy storage connector circuit boards are different, and their varieties are also different. Each variety has its own characteristics. The following is a brief and specific introduction to these aspects:




1. Pin and plug arrangement. Mother sorting and needle sorting are relatively inexpensive and common interface methods, used in low-end, high standard intelligent products, development boards, debugging boards, etc;




Advantages: Low cost, fast, sturdy hard connection, strong overcurrent capability, conducive to wire bonding and testing;




Disadvantages: Large size, difficult to bend, long distance, unable to connect hundreds of pins (too large).




2. Some board to board connectors are used for compact products, with a higher pin density than row connectors. Application field: Widely used, basic intelligent hardware products are basically in use.




Advantages: Small body size, large number of stitches, can do 40 stitches with a length of 1 centimeter (the same standard only requires up to 20 stitches).




Disadvantages: The overall plan needs to be fixed and expensive, and cannot be frequently plugged in and out.




3. Thickened board to board connectors can be merged, disassembled, and inserted on the pin bank. Usage: Inspection board, development board, large fixed equipment (such as main chassis wiring). Advantages: It is inexpensive, cost-effective, and widely used together with pins, and the connection is precise and the measurement is very fast. Disadvantages: Not easy to repair, large size, not suitable for mass production scenarios.




4. FPC connector insertion/ZIF connector. Many intelligent products and devices require pulling data signals out of the computer motherboard, and FPC is a very good choice for its small size, flexibility, and versatile shape. Usage: Bending of power circuits, connection between computer motherboards and external devices, connection between auxiliary boards and computer motherboards, and tight indoor space of products. Advantage: Exquisite and affordable.

1. Thread connection method for energy storage connector plug




This is a commonly used connection method for connectors and plugs that operate in environments with large dimensions and strong vibrations. This connection method can be equipped with a fuse or nut to prevent loosening after the connection is completed. The connection method is reliable, but the connection and removal speed is slow. Industrial connectors




2. Connection method of energy storage connector plug bayonet




This is a reliable and agile method of connection and separation. Most electrical connectors with the 121 connection method have a clear display of correct connection and locking, which can be investigated from the small hole on the side of the connector nut.






3. Insertion and connection method of energy storage connector plug




This is a versatile connection method. The movement direction of the plug and socket of the electrical connector during connection and disconnection is generally a reciprocating linear motion, which does not need to be changed or rotated, and only requires a small working space to complete the connection and disconnection. There are two common structures for plug-in connections: ball or pin. This connection method does not have a mechanical labor-saving mechanism. Once mistakenly inserted, the mechanical resistance increases significantly and can be detected in a timely manner.




4. Connection method of energy storage connector plug cabinet




This is an electrical connector used on devices that are blindly connected near structural requirements, which can make electrical equipment lighter, smaller, easier to maintain, and more reliable. This connection method makes it impossible for the operator to feel the connection status. It is necessary to plan a precise positioning device to prevent forcibly connecting the mistakenly inserted connector plugs together, making it impossible to insert them incorrectly. The connector plug generally adopts a floating or elastic touch planning structure to ensure its correct connection.




Characteristics of energy storage connectors:

1. The energy storage battery connector has advanced characteristics of high temperature resistance, voltage resistance, chemical corrosion resistance, and cleanliness.




2. With high reliability, precise positioning, minimal noise, strong impact resistance, convenient installation, and high reliability, it is widely used in various power systems with high requirements.




3. Exquisite workmanship, high strength, stable quality, good maintenance function, good ventilation, high temperature resistance, safe and reliable, voltage resistance and other characteristics can greatly shorten the replacement and fixing time, and are easy to disassemble




Brief description of the manufacturing process of energy storage connectors




Many people think that there are too many types of energy storage connectors, and the manufacturing process should be different. In fact, the production process of energy storage connectors is basically the same, which can be divided into four production processes: stamping, electroplating, injection molding, and assembly.




1. Stamping




Stamping is the process of stamping electronic energy storage connectors (pins) from thin metal strips using a large high-speed stamping machine. One end of the large coil of metal strip is fed into the front end of the stamping machine, and the other end passes through the hydraulic working platform of the stamping machine and wraps around the winding wheel. The metal strip is pulled out by the winding wheel and rolled up to punch out the finished terminal.




2. Electroplating




After the stamping of the pins of the energy storage connector is completed, it should be sent to the electroplating stage. In the electroplating stage, the electronic touch surface of the energy storage connector will be coated with various metal coatings, such as nickel plating, tin plating, and semi gold plating, to prevent oxidation and enhance conductivity. During the process of feeding stamped pins into electroplating equipment, the pins may also experience distortion, cracking, or deformation. These quality defects can be easily detected through the aforementioned skills.




3. Injection molding




Injection molding refers to the process of injecting molten plastic into the metal tire film and rapidly cooling it to form the plastic box seat of an electronic energy storage connector.

Attention should also be paid to detecting "short shoots" when the molten plastic is not completely filled with the film, which is a typical drawback that needs to be detected during the injection molding stage. Other drawbacks include full or partial blockage of the sockets (these sockets need to be kept clean and unobstructed in order to correctly connect with the pins during final assembly).




4. Assembly




The final stage of producing electronic energy storage connectors is the assembly of finished products. There are two methods for connecting and assembling electroplated pins with injection box seats: the first is to insert them separately, that is, to insert one pin at a time;




The second type is a combination plug, which refers to connecting multiple pins together to a box socket. No matter what connection method is used for assembly, ensure that all pins are not missing and it is necessary to position them correctly.
