Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery looping equipment, in particular to a powder removing device for a looping machine. Background Art

[0002] The looping machine is widely used in the processing of various wires into circles, semicircles or arcs of any angle. Equipped with special molds and adjustable pressure wheels, it can also produce square and oval workpieces. It is the preferred equipment for industries such as handicrafts, flower pot racks, luggage fasteners, daily hardware and kitchen utensils to improve product quality, reduce production costs and enhance production capacity.

[0003] In the field of battery positive electrode ring processing, the ring-shaped workpiece produced by the ring-making machine is made by putting powdered raw materials into a specified ring-forming mold. However, the existing ring-making machines all transport the positive electrode powder to the ring-making area through a single pipeline. When manganese powder is continuously transported in the pipeline, it is easy to cause powder accumulation in the conveying pipeline, further leading to the problem of pipeline blockage, seriously affecting the ring-making efficiency of the ring-making machine and reducing the output of positive electrode rings produced in the battery production line. Summary of the Invention

[0004] The purpose of the present invention is to solve the problem that materials in the looping machine in the prior art are easily accumulated and cause blockage during transportation.

[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the present invention provides a powder plucking device for a ring making machine, comprising: a plucking box, a power piece, a discharge pipe and a discharge bin, the plucking box is provided with a accommodating chamber, the upper part of the accommodating chamber is provided with a feed port and the lower part is provided with a discharge port, one end of the discharge pipe is connected with the discharge port and the other end is connected with the discharge bin, the lower part of the discharge bin is provided with an opening facing the ring making machine, a level sensor for detecting the amount of material is provided in the discharge bin, a dial is provided in the accommodating chamber of the plucking box, a plurality of paddles arranged circumferentially are provided on the dial, the power piece is used to drive the dial to rotate according to the signal of the level sensor, and the feed port and the discharge port are both located within the rotation radius of the paddle.

[0006] When the above solution is used, when the amount of material in the discharge bin detected by the material level sensor is less than the set value, the power component is controlled to drive the dial to rotate, so that the material in the dial box enters the discharge pipe and falls into the discharge bin under the drive of the paddle; when the amount of material in the discharge bin detected by the material level sensor is greater than the set value, the power component controls the dial to slow down its rotation speed, thereby slowing down the rate at which the material in the dial box enters the discharge pipe, avoiding the problem of excessive accumulation of material in the discharge bin or discharge pipe. Compared with the existing technology, the above solution effectively reduces the phenomenon of pipeline blockage caused by excessive density of battery powder due to accumulation during transportation through the setting of the discharge bin and the dial box, making the transportation of battery positive electrode powder in the ring making machine smoother, and effectively improving the processing efficiency of battery positive electrode rings in the ring making machine.

[0007] Preferably, a material storage tube is further included, which is located above the dial box and is connected to the feed port, so that the material storage tube can conveniently add materials into the accommodating cavity through the feed port.

[0008] Preferably, the size of the lower hopper gradually decreases in the downward direction to form a funnel shape, so that the material in the lower hopper can pass through the opening and enter the looping machine more stably.

[0009] Preferably, the discharge pipe is arranged to be inclined vertically, so that the discharge pipe can play a certain buffering role between the paddle box and the discharge bin, so that the material can enter the discharge bin more smoothly.

[0010] Preferably, the material level sensor is a capacitive proximity switch, which has good detection accuracy and does not adversely affect the material.

[0011] Preferably, the accommodating cavity is cylindrical and is coaxially arranged with the dial. The power member is a motor connected to the dial box, thereby ensuring that the paddle on the dial can better move the material in the accommodating cavity.

[0012] Preferably, the paddles are all arc-shaped and evenly arranged on the outside of the dial, and the middle parts of the paddles are arranged toward the feed port and the discharge port, thereby ensuring that the paddles have a better effect of moving the material.

[0013] Preferably, an adjusting disk is further included, which covers the discharge port and is rotatably connected to the discharge port. A through hole is provided on the adjusting disk, so that when the looping machine needs to process batches of products of different sizes, the angle or position of the through hole relative to the paddle can be changed by rotating the adjusting disk. Driven by the paddle, the amount of material that can pass through the through hole and enter the discharge pipe also changes accordingly, thereby achieving further precise control and adjustment of the material conveying speed.

[0014] Preferably, the through hole is elliptical or rectangular, so that when the long side direction of the through hole is parallel to the radial direction of the accommodating cavity, more material can pass through the through hole under the action of the paddle; when the long side direction of the through hole is perpendicular to the radial direction of the accommodating cavity, less material can pass through the through hole under the action of the paddle, thereby achieving precise adjustment.

[0015] Preferably, an adjustment power source is further included, and the adjustment power source is used to drive the adjustment disk to rotate, thereby further improving the level of automation. BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0022] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the specific embodiments of the present invention are described in detail in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. It should also be noted that all directional indications in the embodiments of the present invention (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, inside, and outside) are only used to explain the relative position relationship, movement status, etc. between the components under a certain specific posture (as shown in the accompanying drawings). If the specific posture changes, the directional indication will also change accordingly.

[0023] See also Figure 1-Figure 3An embodiment of the present invention provides a powder plucking device for a looping machine, comprising a paddle 2, a power member 2.1, a discharge pipe 3, and a discharge bin 4. A accommodating chamber 2.2 is provided in the paddle 2, a feed port 2.3 is provided at the upper portion of the accommodating chamber 2.2, and a discharge port 2.4 is provided at the lower portion thereof. One end of the discharge pipe 3 is connected to the discharge port 2.4, and the other end is connected to the discharge bin 4. The lower portion of the discharge bin 4 is provided with an opening facing the looping machine 1. A level sensor 4.1 for detecting the amount of material is provided in the discharge bin 4. A dial 5 is provided in the accommodating chamber 2.2 of the paddle 2, and a plurality of paddles 5.1 arranged circumferentially are provided on the dial 5. The power member 2.1 is used to drive the dial 5 to rotate according to a signal from the level sensor 4.1. The feed port 2.3 and the discharge port 2.4 are both located within the rotation radius of the paddles 5.1.

[0024] When the above solution is used, when the material level sensor 4.1 detects that the amount of material in the discharge bin 4 is less than the set value, the power component 2.1 is controlled to drive the dial 5 to rotate, so that the material in the box 2 is driven by the paddle 5.1 to enter the discharge pipe 3 and fall into the discharge bin 4. When the material level sensor 4.1 detects that the amount of material in the discharge bin 4 is greater than the set value, the power component 2.1 controls the rotation of the dial 5 to slow down, thereby slowing the rate at which the material in the box 2 enters the discharge pipe 3, effectively avoiding the problem of excessive accumulation of material in the discharge bin 4 or the discharge pipe 3, resulting in increased density and accumulation and blockage. It should be understood that the discharge pipe 3 and the discharge bin 4 can be of an integrated design or a separate assembled design, and this design is not limited to this.

[0025] As an extension of the above embodiment, the device further includes a material storage tube 6. The material storage tube 6 is located above the paddle box 2 and communicates with the material inlet 2.3, allowing the material storage tube 6 to conveniently add material to the accommodating chamber 2.2 through the material inlet 2.3. The diameter of the material storage tube 6 is preferably larger than that of the material inlet 2.3 to allow for a larger storage capacity.

[0026] In this embodiment, the size of the lower hopper 4 gradually decreases in the downward direction to form a funnel shape, so that the material in the lower hopper 4 can pass through the opening more stably and enter the looping machine 1. The lower hopper 3 is arranged vertically inclined, so that the lower hopper 3 can play a certain buffering role between the paddle box 2 and the lower hopper 4, so that the material can enter the lower hopper 4 more smoothly.

[0027] In this embodiment, the material level sensor 4.1 is a capacitive proximity switch, which has good detection accuracy and will not cause adverse effects on the material.

[0028] Preferably, the accommodating chamber 2.2 of this embodiment is cylindrical and coaxially arranged with the dial 5. The power element 2.1 is a motor connected to the dial box 2, thereby ensuring that the paddles 5.1 on the dial 5 can better move the material in the accommodating chamber 2.2. The paddles 5.1 are all arc-shaped and evenly arranged on the outside of the dial 5. The middle of the paddles 5.1 is positioned toward the feed port 2.3 and the discharge port 2.4, thereby ensuring that the paddles 5.1 have a better effect on moving the material.

[0029] like Figure 4 As shown, in another embodiment, the present invention further comprises an adjusting disk 7. The adjusting disk 7 is arranged to cover the discharge port 2.4 in a transverse direction. The outer edge of the adjusting disk 7 is rotatably connected to the side wall of the discharge port 2.4. The adjusting disk 7 is provided with a through hole 7.1. When the looping machine 1 needs to process batches of products of different sizes, the angle or position of the through hole 7.1 relative to the paddle 5.1 can be changed by rotating the adjusting disk 7. The amount of material that can pass through the through hole 7.1 and enter the discharge pipe 3 under the drive of the paddle 5.1 also changes accordingly, thereby achieving further precise control and adjustment of the material conveying speed.

[0030] In this embodiment, the through hole 7.1 is elliptical or rectangular. When the longitudinal direction of the through hole 7.1 is parallel to the radial direction of the accommodating chamber 2.2, more material can pass through the through hole 7.1 driven by the paddle 5.1. When the longitudinal direction of the through hole 7.1 is perpendicular to the radial direction of the accommodating chamber 2.2, less material can pass through the through hole 7.1 driven by the paddle 5.1, thereby achieving precise adjustment. Furthermore, the through hole 7.1 can also be circular and positioned on the outer edge of the adjustment disk 7. As the adjustment disk 7 rotates, the through hole 7.1 will be aligned with the paddle 5.1 at different positions, similarly enabling adjustment of the amount of material that can pass through. It should be understood that this design does not impose any restrictions on the number or shape of the through holes 7.1, as long as the adjustment function of the amount of material that can pass through is achieved.

[0031] Furthermore, it also includes an adjustment power source (not shown in the figure). In this embodiment, the adjustment power source is a motor, which can automatically drive the adjustment disk 7 to rotate, further improving the level of automation.

[0032] Compared with the existing technology, the above scheme effectively reduces the phenomenon of pipeline blockage caused by excessive density of battery powder accumulation during transportation through the setting of the discharge bin 4 and the dial box 2, making the battery positive electrode powder in the ring making machine 1 smoother during transportation, and effectively improving the processing efficiency of the battery positive electrode ring in the ring making machine 1.

[0033] Although the present disclosure is disclosed as above, the protection scope of the present disclosure is not limited thereto. For those skilled in the art, various changes and modifications can be made without departing from the spirit and scope of the present disclosure, and these changes and modifications will fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
