A discharge pipe is fixedly installed at the bottom of the feed hopper. A storage box is slidably arranged inside the recycling bin. Storage slots are evenly spaced on the surface of the storage box. An adjustment structure is provided inside the recycling bin. The adjustment structure includes a threaded rod, a sliding rod, and a threaded rod. The sliding rod is slidably arranged inside the recycling bin. A slider is fixedly installed at the bottom of the sliding rod. A groove is formed on the bottom surface of the inner wall of the recycling bin. The threaded rod is rotatably installed in the groove. The threaded rod passes through the slider and is threadedly connected to the slider. The sliding rod is U-shaped. A groove is formed on the surface of the sliding rod. A slider is slidably arranged in the groove. The threaded rod is rotatably installed in the groove. The threaded rod passes through the slider and is rotatably connected to the slider. A slider is fixedly installed at the end of the storage box.

[0006] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a gear four is fixedly installed on the threaded rod two, a motor two is fixedly installed inside the slide rod, and a gear three that meshes with the gear four is fixedly installed on the output shaft one of the motor two.

[0007] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a cover plate is hinged to the recycling bin, a motor is fixedly installed at the end of the recycling bin, and a gear is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the motor.

[0008] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a second gear is fixedly installed at the end of the threaded rod, and the first gear meshes with the second gear.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, rectangular grooves are provided on both inner walls of the connecting shell, and round rods are fixedly installed in both rectangular grooves.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, springs are movably sleeved on both of the two round rods, and rectangular blocks are fixedly installed on both sides of the feed hopper, with the two rectangular blocks slidably disposed in the rectangular grooves respectively.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, the two round rods respectively movably pass through the rectangular block, and the two rectangular blocks are respectively fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove by a spring.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a groove is provided on the side surface of the turntable, a pressure block is movably inserted into the groove, a second spring is fixedly installed in the groove, the pressure block is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove through the second spring, and the end of the pressure block is arc-shaped.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a long rod is fixedly installed at the end of the feed hopper, and the long rod has a trapezoidal design.

[0014] As a preferred embodiment of the present invention, a guide plate is provided inside the connecting shell, and a fixing plate is fixedly installed on both sides of the guide plate. The guide plate is fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the connecting shell through the two fixing plates. The guide plate is designed to be inclined, and two stop rods are fixedly installed inside the connecting shell.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects that this invention can achieve are: 1. The rotation of the turntable causes the lithium battery to rotate. Due to gravity, the lithium battery falls into the guide plate. Because the guide plate is tilted, the lithium battery moves along the tilt direction of the guide plate, causing it to fall into the feed hopper and then drop from the discharge pipe into the rotating rod, thus completing the recycling of the lithium battery. The lithium battery recycling collection box stores the lithium batteries individually, making recycling more convenient and cleaning the impurities attached to the surface of the lithium battery, which is convenient for subsequent processing of the lithium battery.

[0016] 2. The rotation of threaded rod one drives the slide rod to move in the X-axis direction, thereby moving the storage box in the X-axis direction. By starting motor two, threaded rod two rotates, which in turn moves the storage box in the Y-axis direction. This allows for adjustment of the storage box's position, ensuring that the opening of the storage tank corresponds to the position of the discharge pipe. This guarantees that the lithium battery can be accurately placed in the storage tank. This collection box, with multiple storage tanks, can neatly store multiple lithium batteries individually, preventing short circuits caused by the accumulation of lithium batteries and ensuring the safety of the collection box.

[0017] 3. When it is necessary to remove the storage tank inside the connecting shell, the user can flip the cover open by removing the bolts, start motor one, and make the storage box move in the X-axis direction. At this time, the user can take out the lithium battery stored in the storage tank. The operation is relatively convenient and the structure is reasonably designed.

[0018] 4. The rotation of the pressure block applies a force to the long rod, causing the feed hopper and discharge pipe to move under force, thus compressing the spring. When the turntable rotates to discharge material, the pressure block will rotate, at which point the pressure block will no longer apply a force to the long rod. Utilizing the elastic restoring effect of the spring, the feed hopper and long rod vibrate, allowing the lithium batteries falling into the feed hopper to drop more smoothly into the discharge pipe, alleviating blockages and ensuring the stable use of the collection box. Two stop levers are fixedly installed inside the connecting shell, which limit the movement of the lithium batteries and ensure that they can fall smoothly into the feed hopper.

A groove 14 is opened on the bottom surface of the inner wall of the recycling box 1. The threaded rod 6 is rotatably installed in the groove 14. The threaded rod 6 passes through the slider 71 and is threadedly connected to the slider 71. The sliding rod 7 is U-shaped. A groove 72 is opened on the surface of the sliding rod 7. A slider 52 is slidably installed in the groove 72. The threaded rod 8 is rotatably installed in the groove 72. The threaded rod 8 passes through the slider 52 and is threadedly connected to the slider 52. 2. Rotary connection: A slider 2 52 is fixedly installed at the end of the storage box 5; a gear 4 81 is fixedly installed on the threaded rod 2 8; a motor 2 74 is fixedly installed inside the slide rod 7; a gear 3 73 that meshes with the gear 4 81 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the motor 2 74; a cover plate 11 is hinged to the recycling box 1; a motor 12 is fixedly installed at the end of the recycling box 1; a gear 13 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the motor 12; a gear 2 61 is fixedly installed at the end of the threaded rod 1 6; gear 13 meshes with gear 2 61; rectangular grooves 22 are opened on the inner walls of both sides of the connecting shell 2; round rods 24 are fixedly installed in both rectangular grooves 22; springs 23 are movably sleeved on both round rods 24; rectangular grooves 22 are fixedly installed on the inner walls of both sides of the feeding hopper 4. Two rectangular blocks 41 are slidably disposed within a rectangular groove 22. Two round rods 24 movably pass through the rectangular blocks 41. The two rectangular blocks 41 are fixedly connected to the inner wall of the rectangular groove 22 by spring 1 23. A groove is formed on the side surface of the turntable 3, and a pressure block 33 is movably inserted into the groove. A spring 2 is fixedly installed in the groove, and the pressure block 33 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the groove by spring 2. The end of the pressure block 33 is arc-shaped. A long rod 42 with a trapezoidal design is fixedly installed at the end of the feed hopper 4. The lithium battery is fed into the circular groove 32 through the feed pipe 21. The exhaust fan is started to clean the impurities on the surface of the lithium battery. After cleaning, the motor 3 28 is started, causing the turntable 3 to rotate. The rotation of the turntable 3 drives...The rotation of turntable 3 causes the lithium battery to rotate, and the lithium battery falls into guide plate 26 due to gravity. Because guide plate 26 is tilted, the lithium battery moves along the tilt direction of guide plate 26, falling into feed hopper 4 and then from discharge pipe 43 into rotating rod 31, thus completing the recycling of the lithium battery. This lithium battery recycling collection box stores the lithium batteries individually, making recycling convenient and allowing for the cleaning of impurities adhering to the surface of the lithium batteries, facilitating subsequent processing. The user starts motor 12, causing gear 13 to rotate. The rotation of gear 13 drives gear 2 61 to rotate, which in turn drives... The rotating threaded rod 6 drives the sliding rod 7 to move in the X-axis direction, thereby moving the storage box 5 in the X-axis direction. By starting the motor 74, the rotating threaded rod 8 rotates, which in turn moves the storage box 5 in the Y-axis direction. This adjusts the position of the storage box 5 so that the opening of the storage trough 51 corresponds to the position of the discharge pipe 43, ensuring that the lithium battery is accurately placed in the storage trough 51. This collection box, with multiple storage troughs 51, can neatly store multiple lithium batteries individually, preventing short circuits caused by battery accumulation and ensuring the collection box's functionality. For safety, when it is necessary to remove the storage tank 51 inside the connecting shell 2, the user can open the cover plate 11 by removing the bolts, start the motor 12, and move the storage box 5 in the X-axis direction. At this time, the user can take out the lithium battery stored in the storage tank 51. The operation is relatively convenient and the structure is reasonably designed. When the turntable 3 rotates in the opposite direction to reset, the pressure block 33 will drive the pressure block 33 to rotate. The rotation of the pressure block 33 will apply a force to the long rod 42, causing the feed hopper 4 and the discharge pipe 43 to move under force, and the spring 23 to be compressed. When the turntable 3 rotates to discharge the material, the pressure block 33 will drive the pressure block 33 to rotate. At this time, the pressure block 33 will no longer apply force to the long rod 42. By applying force and utilizing the elastic restoring action of spring 23, the feed hopper 4 and the long rod 42 vibrate, allowing the lithium batteries falling into the feed hopper 4 to drop more smoothly into the discharge pipe 43, alleviating blockages and ensuring the stable use of the collection box. Two stop levers 25 are fixedly installed inside the connecting shell 2, limiting the movement of the lithium batteries and ensuring they fall smoothly into the feed hopper 4. A guide plate 26 is provided inside the connecting shell 2, with fixing plates 27 fixedly installed on both sides. The guide plate 26 is fixedly connected to the inner walls of both sides of the connecting shell 2 via the two fixing plates 27. The guide plate 26 is designed to be inclined. Two stop levers 25 are fixedly installed inside the connecting shell 2.

[0023] In use, the lithium battery is fed into the circular trough 32 through the feed pipe 21. The exhaust fan is started to clean the impurities on the surface of the lithium battery. After cleaning, the motor 28 is started to make the turntable 3 rotate. The rotation of the turntable 3 will drive the lithium battery to rotate. At this time, the lithium battery will fall into the guide plate 26 due to gravity. Since the guide plate 26 is designed to be inclined, the lithium battery moves along the inclined direction of the guide plate 26 and falls into the feed hopper 4. It then falls from the discharge pipe 43 into the rotating rod 31, thus completing the recycling of the lithium battery. The lithium battery recycling collection box stores the lithium batteries individually, which is more convenient for recycling and can clean the impurities attached to the surface of the lithium battery, which is convenient for subsequent processing of the lithium battery. The user starts motor 12, causing gear 13 to rotate. The rotation of gear 13 drives gear 61 to rotate, which in turn drives threaded rod 6 to rotate. The rotation of threaded rod 6 causes slide rod 7 to move in the X-axis direction, thereby moving storage box 5 in the X-axis direction. By starting motor 74, threaded rod 8 rotates, which in turn moves storage box 5 in the Y-axis direction. This allows the position of storage box 5 to be adjusted so that the opening of storage tank 51 corresponds to the position of discharge pipe 43, ensuring that lithium batteries are accurately placed in storage tank 51. This collection box, with multiple storage tanks 51, can store multiple lithium batteries individually and neatly, avoiding short circuits caused by the accumulation of lithium batteries and ensuring the safety of the collection box. When it is necessary to remove the storage tank 51 inside the connecting shell 2, the user can flip the cover plate 11 open by removing the bolts, start the motor 12, so that the storage box 5 moves in the X-axis direction. At this time, the user can take out the lithium battery stored in the storage tank 51. The operation is relatively convenient and the structure is reasonably designed. When the turntable 3 rotates in the opposite direction to reset, the pressure block 33 will rotate, and the rotation of the pressure block 33 will apply a force to the long rod 42, causing the feed hopper 4 and the discharge pipe 43 to move under force, and the spring 23 to be compressed. When the turntable 3 rotates to discharge the material, the pressure block 33 will rotate, and at this time the pressure block 33 will no longer apply a force to the long rod 42. Utilizing the elastic reset effect of the spring 23, the feed hopper 4 and the long rod 42 will vibrate, making it easier for the lithium batteries falling into the feed hopper 4 to fall into the discharge pipe 43, alleviating the blockage and ensuring the stable use of the collection box. Two stop rods 25 are fixedly installed in the connecting shell 2, which play a limiting role in the movement of the lithium batteries, ensuring that the lithium batteries can fall into the feed hopper 4 smoothly.

[0024] The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail above with reference to the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited thereto. Various changes can be made within the scope of knowledge possessed by those skilled in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention.
