[0039] As Figure 2 , 3 , 4, the feeding device 1000 is used to realize the feeding of battery strings that need to be laid out, and comprises a first rotary feeding module 100 and a second rotary feeding module 200.
[0040] The first rotary feeding module 100 and the second rotary feeding module 200 are arranged symmetrically around the center, and the first rotary feeding module 100 and the second rotary feeding module 200 alternately perform feeding asynchronously.

In an embodiment, the rotating feeding frame 11 comprises a bottom plate 111, side plates 112 arranged on both sides of the bottom plate 111, and the plurality of tension rollers 14 and the plurality of supporting rods 15 are vertically connected between the opposite side plates 112.
[0044] In order to realize sufficient tensioning and supporting of the feeding belt 12, the plurality of supporting rollers are evenly distributed between the opposite side plates 112. At the same time, the tension rollers 14 are distributed at both ends and the middle position between the opposite side plates 112. In this way, the feeding belt 12 is fully stretched left and right and up and down, and maintains a certain tension.
[0045] The first driving motor 13 drives a belt roller 16 to pivot, and the feeding belt 12 is driven by the belt roller 16. The first driving motor 13 is in transmission connection with the belt roller 16 through a first speed reducer. In this way, the battery string on the feeding belt 12 can be fed. At this time, the tension rollers 14 at the middle position are distributed on both sides of the belt roller 16.
[0046] The rotating driving mechanism 2 is used to drive the rotating feeding mechanism 1 to rotate as a whole, and the rotating angle range is -180° to +180°. Specifically, the rotating driving mechanism 2 comprises a driving wheel 21, a driven wheel 22 and a rotating motor 23.
[0047] The driven wheel 22 is connected to the bottom of the rotating feeding frame 11, and the rotating motor 23 is located below the side of the driving wheel 21 and drives the driving wheel 21 to pivot.

In this way, when the rotating motor 23 works, the rotating feeding mechanism 1 can be driven to rotate in the range of -180° to +180° through the linkage between the driving wheel 21 and the driven wheel 22. In addition, in order to install the above-mentioned driving wheel 21, driven wheel 22 and rotating motor 23, the driving wheel 21, driven wheel 22 and rotating motor 23 are integrated on a mounting plate 24.

Specifically, the horizontal driving mechanism 3 comprises a driving pulley 31, a driven pulley 32, a second driving motor 33, a horizontal rail 34 and a base plate 35. At this time, the base plates of the first rotating feeding module 100 and the second rotating feeding module 200 are arranged side by side, and are aligned through the connectors on the edges of the two.
[0049] The second driving motor 33 is located at one end of the base plate 35 and drives the driving pulley 31 to pivot, the driven pulley 32 is located at the other end of the base plate 35, the driving pulley 31 and the driven pulley 32 are connected through the transmission belt, and the rotary feeding mechanism 1 and the rotary driving mechanism 2 as a whole move horizontally along with the transmission belt between the driving pulley 31 and the driven pulley 32. In this way, when the second driving motor 33 works, the transmission belt between the driving pulley 31 and the driven pulley 32 can be driven. Correspondingly, the transmission belt between the driving pulley 31 and the driven pulley 32 is connected to the bottom surface of the mounting plate 24 through the connecting block 36.
[0050] In order to ensure the stability of the rotary feeding mechanism 1 and the rotary driving mechanism 2 as a whole, the horizontal rails 34 are two, and the two horizontal rails 34 are arranged side by side. The whole formed by the two horizontal rails 34 slides along the two horizontal rails 34. At the same time, the driving pulleys 31 are two groups, the two groups of driving pulleys 31 are arranged side by side, and the two groups of driving pulleys 31 are connected through a transmission shaft; the driven pulleys 32 are also two groups, and are arranged opposite to the driving pulleys 31, and the two groups of driven pulleys 32 are connected through another transmission shaft.
[0051] As shown in Figure 5 , 6 , 7, the battery string arrangement device 2000 is located above the feeding device 1000, which is used for sucking the battery string and arranging the battery string. The battery string arrangement device 2000 comprises two groups of battery string arrangement modules 300 and linear motors 400 for driving the two groups of battery string arrangement modules 300 to move horizontally. The two groups of battery string arrangement modules 300 are arranged symmetrically. In this way, by arranging the double-station battery string arrangement device 2000, the arrangement efficiency of the battery string can be improved.
[0052] The battery string arrangement module 300 comprises a fixing frame 301, a lifting driving unit 302, a horizontal driving unit 303, and a plurality of suction units 304.
[0053] The fixing frame 301 is used for integrating the lifting driving unit 302, the horizontal driving unit 303, and the plurality of suction units 304, and comprises a vertical plate 311, a support 312 connected to the two sides of the vertical plate 311, and a mounting plate 313 connected to the lower ends of the vertical plate 311 and the support 312. The upper part of the vertical plate 311 is connected to the lifting driving unit, the horizontal driving unit 303 and the plurality of suction units 304 are connected to the mounting plate 313. In addition, in order to guide the translation of the plurality of suction units 304, a guide rail is arranged on the mounting plate 313, and the plurality of suction units 304 are driven by the horizontal driving unit 303 to translate along the guide rail.
[0054] The lifting driving unit 302 is used to realize the overall lifting of the fixed frame 301, the horizontal driving unit 303 and the plurality of suction units 304 on the fixed frame 301, and is in transmission connection with the upper position of the vertical plate 311 of the fixed frame 301. The lifting driving unit 302 comprises a third driving motor 3021, a vertical screw rod and a lifting slider 3022, the output end of the third driving motor 3021 is connected with one end of the vertical screw rod, the lifting slider 3022 is in threaded cooperation with the vertical screw rod and can be lifted along with the pivoting of the vertical screw rod, and the upper part of the fixed frame 301 is connected on the lifting slider 3022. In this way, when the third driving motor 3021 works, the vertical screw rod can be driven to pivot, and the lifting slider 3022 further drives the fixed frame 301, the horizontal driving unit 303 and the plurality of suction units 304 on the fixed frame 301 to lift.
[0055] The horizontal driving unit 303 and the plurality of suction units 304 are arranged at the bottom of the fixed frame 301, the plurality of suction units 304 are arranged side by side, and the horizontal driving unit 303 adjusts the spacing between the plurality of suction units 304. In this way, the horizontal driving unit 303 is used to drive the plurality of suction units 304 to translate, so that the spacing between the plurality of suction units 304 meets the requirements of battery string grabbing.
[0056] Specifically, the horizontal driving unit 303 comprises a fourth driving motor 3031, a horizontal screw rod 3032 and a screw rod sleeve 3033.
[0057] Among them, the fourth driving motor 3031 is in transmission connection with one end of the horizontal screw rod 3032 through a belt, the screw rod sleeve 3033 is in threaded cooperation with the horizontal screw rod 3032 and can be translated along with the pivoting of the horizontal screw rod 3032, and the screw rod sleeve 3033 is further connected to the corresponding suction unit 304. In this way, when the fourth driving motor 3031 drives the horizontal screw rod 3032 to pivot, the screw rod sleeve 3033 on the horizontal screw rod 3032 can drive the suction unit 304 connected thereto to move synchronously. In one embodiment, the suction unit 304 is three, the three suction units 304 are arranged in the left-middle-right mode, and the left and right suction units 304 are driven to translate by one horizontal driving unit 303 respectively. Therefore, by arranging three suction units 304 side by side, three battery strings can be sucked at one time.
[0058] The suction unit 304 is used to grab the battery string by the way of vacuum adsorption. Specifically, any one of the plurality of suction units 304 comprises a top plate 3041, a first base 3042, a first fine adjustment mechanism 3043, a second fine adjustment mechanism 3044 and a plurality of suction cups 3045. The plurality of suction cups 3045 are integrally installed on a fixed plate 3046 and are symmetrically arranged in the clamping grooves on the two side edges of the fixed plate 3046.
[0059] The first fine-tuning mechanism 3043 includes an adjusting motor 431, an adjusting lead screw 432, and an adjusting block 433. The adjusting motor 431 is connected to one end of the adjusting lead screw 432. The adjusting block 433 is threaded onto the adjusting lead screw 432 and fixed to the top plate 3041. The adjusting motor 431 is fixed to the first base 3042. With this configuration, when the adjusting motor 431 is working, it can drive the first base 3042 and the fixed plate 3046 connected together, as well as several suction cups 3045 on them, to perform translational adjustment.
[0060] The second fine-tuning mechanism 3044 includes a cam motor 441, a cam 442, and a rotating shaft 443. The cam motor 441 is fixed to the first base 3042, and drives several suction cups 3045 to pivot around the rotating shaft 443 for adjustment. Thus, by setting the first fine-tuning mechanism 3043 and the second fine-tuning mechanism 3044, the position and angle of the suction cups 3045 can be finely adjusted, thereby ensuring that the position and angle of the sucked-up battery strings meet the layout requirements, which is beneficial for the neat arrangement of the battery strings.
[0061] like Figure 8 , 9 As shown, the carrier plate positioning device 3000 is used to provide a plane for battery string arrangement. It is located below the battery string arrangement device 2000. The carrier plate positioning device 3000 includes: two carrier plate positioning modules 500 arranged opposite each other, and a conveyor line 600 disposed between the two carrier plate positioning modules 500.
[0062] The carrier plate positioning module 500 on either side includes a horizontal transmission unit 501, a clamping unit 502, and a guide support unit 503. In addition, the carrier plate positioning module 500 also includes a second base 504, on which the horizontal transmission unit 501, the clamping unit 502, and the guide support unit 503 are integrated.

Thus, when the fifth drive motor 5011 is working, it can drive the connecting plate 5013 to reciprocate through the transmission screw 5012, thereby adjusting the distance between the clamping units 502 in the two carrier plate positioning modules 500 to adapt to the automatic alignment adjustment of carrier plates of different sizes.
[0065] In addition, in order to facilitate the reciprocating movement of the clamping unit 502, the fifth driving motor 5011 is further provided with a first guide rail 5014 on both sides for assisting the reciprocating movement of the clamping unit 502. The length of the first guide rail 5014 is greater than or equal to the length of the transmission screw rod 5012, so as to ensure the directional movement and stability of the clamping unit 502.

[0067] The clamping jaw 5022 comprises a connecting rod 221 arranged vertically relative to the transmission screw rod 5012 and a clamping wheel 222 pivotally connected to the top surface of the connecting rod 221. In this way, when the clamping cylinder 5021 works, the clamping jaws 5022 of the two carrier plate positioning modules 500 can be brought close to each other, thereby realizing the clamping and fixing of the carrier plate between the two carrier plate positioning modules 500. In one embodiment, the clamping wheel 222 is pivotally connected to both ends of the connecting rod 221.
[0068] In addition, in order to facilitate the reciprocating movement of the clamping jaw 5022, the clamping cylinder 5021 is further provided with a second guide rail 5023 on both sides for assisting the reciprocating movement of the clamping jaw 5022. The length of the second guide rail 5023 is greater than or equal to the transmission stroke of the clamping cylinder 5021, so as to ensure the directional movement and stability of the clamping jaw 5022.
[0069] The guiding and supporting unit 503 is used for supporting and guiding the end position of the carrier plate. The guiding and supporting unit 503 is located on one side of the movement stroke of the clamping unit 502, and the clamping jaw 5022 is driven by the clamping cylinder 5021 and is arranged close to or away from the guiding and supporting unit 503. The guiding and supporting unit 503 comprises a plurality of ball bearings 5031. The plurality of ball bearings 5031 are arranged side by side below one side of the movement stroke of the clamping unit 502. Any ball bearing 5031 is accommodated in a ball bearing seat, and the ball bearing 5031 can freely rotate 360° in the ball bearing seat.
[0070] The conveying line 600 is used for conveying the empty carrier plate into the space between the two carrier plate positioning modules 500. In one embodiment, the conveying line 600 is three, and the three conveying lines 600 are arranged equidistantly and side by side between the two carrier plate positioning modules 500. Any conveying line 600 comprises a conveying line support 201 and a belt wheel 202 pivotally connected to both ends of the conveying line support 201. The two belt wheels 202 are sleeved with a transmission belt. At the same time, the driving belt wheels of each conveying line 600 are connected by a rotating shaft, and the rotating shaft is driven to pivot by a rotating motor 203. In this way, each conveying line 600 can be driven by the same rotating motor to convey synchronously.
[0071] In summary, the application can rotate the whole battery string from the feeding end, and one action can rotate all the battery strings to the position, thereby shortening the feeding time by several times. Meanwhile, by setting the double module feeding station, two modules alternate feeding to realize the exchange operation, thereby significantly improving the feeding efficiency. Meanwhile, by the fine adjustment mechanism, the fine adjustment of the battery string layout can be realized, so that the position and angle of the layout battery string meet the layout requirements, which is beneficial to the neat layout of the battery string. In addition, by the horizontal driving unit, the automatic alignment adjustment of the carrier plate of different sizes can be realized. Meanwhile, by the clamping unit, the clamping and fixing of the carrier plate can also be realized, so that the automatic adjustment can be realized, the rapid line change can be realized, and the requirements of the correction accuracy and force can be ensured.
