[0019] It should be noted that the specific types of motors, electric push rods and detection probes to be used are selected by relevant technical personnel familiar with the field, and the above motors, electric push rods and detection probes are all existing technologies and will not be elaborated in this solution.

[0020] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: when the system detects that the battery holder 107 carries an uncoated battery 109, the conveying motor 108 is started to smoothly transport the uncoated battery 109 to the battery rotation positioning transplanting mechanism 8 for further processing. This design not only ensures that the transplanting operation is completed in a flat state, but also ensures the transmission stability and high-precision positioning requirements during the entire process. The entire battery is pushed out to the battery rotation positioning transplanting mechanism 8, and the battery is pushed out to the rotating platform push rod mechanism 9 and is connected and fixed with the wire body profile 102. When the system detects that the uncoated battery 109 has been accurately positioned on the battery rotation positioning transplanting mechanism 8 and the upper and lower After the film-free battery 109 is moved between the material mechanisms, the propulsion cylinder 96 will be started, and the unfilmed battery 109 will be pushed to the battery with magnetic transplanting fixture 85 of the battery rotation positioning transplanting mechanism 8. This design scheme not only fully considers the requirements of action stroke and accuracy, but also takes into account the cost-effectiveness ratio, and realizes an efficient and economical operation mode. After the unfilmed battery 109 moves to the half-film waiting position, the battery transplanting positioning sleeve 74 and the waiting unfilmed battery 109 complete positioning, the No. 1 battery push rod 71 pushes the waiting unfilmed battery 109 into the battery transplanting positioning sleeve 74, and the No. 2 battery push rod 717 pushes the battery transplanting positioning sleeve 74 into the battery with film sleeve position, and at the same time The main drive composed of the second rubber wheel 713, the film sleeve driving motor 714 and the gear 715 drives the second rubber wheel 713 to push the film sleeve material belt 3 forward through the friction between the film sleeve driving motor 714 and the film sleeve material belt 3. The first rubber wheel 79, the rubber wheel bracket 710 and the cylinder 711 constitute a clamping mechanism with adjustable travel of the sleeve rod and the material belt. When the sleeve rod 712 is clamped, the material belt 3 can still move forward through the rotation of the first rubber wheel 79. The hollow magnetic ring mechanism 77 uses the principle of mutual repulsion of the same magnetic poles to keep the sleeve rod 712 hollow and suspended at all times. The two processes are carried out simultaneously. At the docking point, the front section of the battery transplanting and positioning sleeve 74 has an 18° chamfer, and the film sleeve is not sleeved. The battery 109 is directly inserted into the expanded material strip 3, at which time 1 / 2 of it is still in the battery transplanting and positioning sleeve 74, and then the sleeve film cutting mechanism 76 motor is started to drive the cam blade to rotate and cut the material strip, and the sleeve film process is completed; the working principle of this station is simple, and the cutting length of the sleeve film material strip 3 can be set. After the battery cell is sleeved, the unloading cylinder 62 extends, and the unloading claw 65 clamps the battery cell. At the same time, the battery transplanting and positioning sleeve 74 and the No. 1 battery push rod 71 and the No. 2 battery push rod 717 are retracted to the replacement sleeve film preparation station to complete the next sleeve film docking. After the sleeve film is completed, the battery cell is placed in the unloading battery fixture 107 by the unloading mechanism and transplanted to complete the entire process flow of the half-sleeve film.
