Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery manufacturing technology, specifically a cover plate riveting inspection machine. Background Technology

[0002] Valve-regulated sealed lead-acid (VRLA) batteries are widely used in communication systems, power systems, emergency lighting systems, automated control systems, fire and security alarm systems, solar and wind power systems, computer backup power supplies, portable instruments, meters, medical system equipment, electric vehicles, and power tools. Compared with the original open-cell lead-acid batteries, VRLA batteries have many advantages and are very popular with users, especially those who need to install batteries with their equipment. This is because VRLA batteries are completely sealed, do not leak acid, and do not release acid fumes during charging and discharging, unlike older lead-acid batteries, which can corrode equipment and pollute the environment.

[0003] The casing of a valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery consists of a bottom tank, a middle cover, and a cover plate. Currently, there are three main methods for installing battery covers and matching cover plates in the industry: one is adhesive bonding, where the cover and cover plate are glued together with ABS glue; the second is ultrasonic welding, where the battery cover and cover plate are riveted together by ultrasonic heat fusion; and the third is a snap-fit ​​structure to combine the cover and cover plate together. However, regardless of the method, there will be cases of missed adhesion or weak adhesion. Currently, manual inspection is carried out by tapping each one, which is highly subjective and carries the risk of missing quality inspections. Once the cover plate falls off during use, it will cause acid leakage, posing a serious safety hazard. At the same time, the open shape of the battery will accelerate water loss and accelerate battery failure. To solve the above problems, a cover plate riveting and bonding inspection machine urgently needs to be developed. Summary of the Invention

[0052] Specifically, silicone pads 11 are fixedly connected to both sides of the baffle 42 and the movable plate 44.

[0053] In this embodiment, the silicone pad 11 protects the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery during movement, preventing scratches on its surface.

[0054] Specifically, the front side of cylinder 3 65 has two symmetrically arranged through holes, and the inner cavity of the through holes is provided with fixing bolts 12. Cylinder 3 65 is detachably connected to fixing plate 1 63 through fixing bolts 12.

[0055] In this embodiment, the fixing bolts 12 are used to install and fix the fixing plate 63 and the cylinder 65, thereby facilitating the user's maintenance of the cylinder 65 in the future.

[0056] Working principle and usage process of this invention:

[0057] Step 1: On both sides of the workbench 1, there are front and rear assembly lines corresponding to the height of the workbench 1, which facilitates the formation of a single-piece flow. The positions of the front and rear assembly lines for placing valve-regulated sealed lead-acid batteries are adapted to the battery conveying mechanism 4. This process eliminates the need for manual feeding of valve-regulated sealed lead-acid batteries.

[0058] Step 2: When the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery moves to the side of the movable plate 44 via the assembly line, cylinder 43 is activated. The output end of cylinder 43 drives the movable plate 44 to move to the right. The movement of the movable plate 44 to the right moves the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery to the right. The movable plate 44 moves the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery to the bottom of the suction cup mechanism 6 and the front of the blocking structure 5, at which point cylinder 43 can be closed.

[0059] Step 3: Start cylinder 2 54. The output end of cylinder 2 54 drives the connecting plate 55 to move forward. The connecting plate 55 drives the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery to move forward until the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery moves forward and contacts the silicone pad 9. This process prevents the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery from shifting during testing.

[0060] Step 4: The user starts cylinder 3 (65), which moves fixing plate 2 (66) downward. As fixing plate 2 (66) moves downward, it moves vacuum buffer tube 67 downward. The downward movement of vacuum buffer tube 67 moves suction nozzle 68 downward, so that suction nozzle 68 comes into contact with the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery. At this time, vacuum buffer tube 67 drives suction nozzle 68 to hold the top cover of the valve-regulated sealed lead-acid battery. Then, the output end of cylinder 3 (65) retracts, which moves fixing plate 2 (66) upward. Fixing plate 2 (66) moves vacuum buffer tube 67 and suction nozzle 68 upward. When vacuum buffer tube 67 and suction nozzle 68 move upward, they can effectively suck away the loosely riveted top cover, thus achieving the detection effect. This device has the advantages of automated operation, saving time and effort, and safety and reliability.

[0061] Step 5: Users can determine the appropriate usage scenarios based on the following:

[0062] When the bottom of the adjusting bolt 23 is not in contact with the bracket 21, the bracket 21 is moved forward or backward. The adjusting bolt 23 slides in the inner cavity of the adjusting groove 22, which adjusts the front and back position of the bracket 21, and thus adjusts the front and back position of the suction cup mechanism 6.

[0063] When the user tightens the adjusting bolt 3 53, and the bottom of the adjusting bolt 3 53 does not contact the base plate 51, the base plate 51 moves forward or backward. When the base plate 51 moves, it drives the cylinder 2 54 to move forward or backward, thus adjusting the front and rear position of the cylinder 2 54.

[0064] When the user tightens the adjusting bolt 32, and the bottom of the adjusting bolt 32 does not contact the guide frame 31, the user pushes the guide frame 31 forward or backward. The guide frame 31 drives the positioning plate 33 to move in the same direction. When the positioning plate 33 moves, it can drive the silicone pad 9 and the battery conveying mechanism 4 to move.

[0065] When the user tightens the adjusting bolt 4 64, and one side of the adjusting bolt 4 64 is not in contact with the fixing plate 1 63, the user can move the fixing plate 1 63 up or down, which can adjust the height of the cylinder 3 65, the vacuum buffer tube 67 and the suction nozzle 68.

[0066] When the user tightens the fixing bolt 12 on the top of the fixing part 61, the user can push the suction cup mechanism 6 to the left or right to adjust the left and right position of the suction cup mechanism 6.

[0067] This achieves the goal of being applicable to different models of high-voltage valve-regulated sealed lead-acid batteries.

Those skilled in the art can make various modifications and refinements without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention. Therefore, the scope of protection of the present invention shall be determined by the claims.
