Description
Battery relief valve and lead-acid storage battery Technical Field The utility model belongs to the technical field of storage battery safety valves, and relates to a battery safety valve and a lead-acid storage battery. Background Lead-acid batteries are an important secondary chemical source, and safety valves are an important component of such batteries, mainly playing a role in venting. During the charging process, the lead-acid storage battery can generate the reaction of electrolyzed water, and the electrolyzed water is decomposed into hydrogen and oxygen, so that the water content in the battery is reduced and the pressure is increased. When the internal pressure of the battery exceeds a set safety value, the safety valve is opened to exhaust gas to prevent the battery from bursting. For example, the utility model patent with the application number of CN201621193448.0 is named as a safety valve of a high-temperature valve-controlled sealed lead-acid storage battery, the safety valve belongs to a plunger type structure, a rubber plunger is arranged in a valve seat of the safety valve, the bottom of the rubber plunger seals an inlet of the valve seat, when the internal pressure of the storage battery reaches a threshold value, high-pressure gas forces the rubber plunger to compress and deform, so that the bottom of the rubber plunger is separated from an outlet of the valve seat, the high-pressure gas can be discharged from a gap between the rubber plunger and the valve seat to reduce the internal pressure of the battery, and when the internal pressure of the storage battery is smaller than the threshold value, the rubber plunger seals the inlet of the valve seat again under the self elastic action. The plunger type safety valve mainly depends on the compression characteristic of a rubber plunger, and the safety valve is in an acidic working environment, so the rubber plunger is made of acid-resistant rubber (such as chloroprene rubber and ethylene propylene diene monomer), the compression deformation rate of the acid-resistant rubber is relatively poor (the creep deformation of the rubber is large), the compression deformation rate of the acid-resistant rubber is gradually reduced along with the time in the long-term use process, the opening and closing pressure threshold value of the safety valve is continuously reduced, and the safety valve is not in accordance with the design requirement value. In order to ensure that the plunger type safety valve still can meet the design requirement after being used for a long time, the initial opening and closing pressure threshold of the safety valve is designed to be very high, so that the plunger type safety valve still can meet the design requirement under the condition that the plunger rubber loses part of compression deformation rate after being used for a long time. When the battery is actually used, part of the batteries are used, negative pressure is adopted in the early stage, positive pressure is adopted in the later stage, and once the batteries are overcharged, the gas in the batteries cannot be discharged in time due to the fact that the initial opening and closing pressure threshold value of the safety valve is higher, so that the battery shell is expanded, and the batteries cannot be discharged and are out of control. For the above reasons, there are some cap-type safety valves, such as the one of patent application CN200710114374.6, named as a safety valve for lead-acid battery, which has a rubber cap that seals a vent, and when the internal pressure of the battery reaches a threshold value, the high-pressure gas forces the rubber cap to stretch and deform, so as to leave the safety valve through the vent. The safety valve mainly utilizes the stretching characteristic of the rubber cap, and the stretching characteristic of the rubber material is superior to the compression characteristic, so that the cap type safety valve has longer service life, even if the safety valve is used for a long time, the rubber cap only loses a small amount of stretching deformation rate, and the safety valve can still meet the design requirement after being used for a long time. More importantly, the cap-type safety valve has small change of the opening and closing pressure threshold value of the rubber cap during the whole service life, and has very stable working performance. However, in the above-mentioned lead acid battery relief valve, laminating together through the mode of face contact between the inner wall face of rubber cap and the outer wall face of exhaust nozzle, lead to the rubber cap to glue with the outer wall face adhesion of exhaust nozzle easily, the condition that the rubber cap opened the difficulty appears easily when the battery internal pressure reached and opens the threshold value, and then lead to the opening pressure threshold value of relief valve to be bigger than the design value to the difference of opening threshold value and closed
