Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of battery processing, in particular to a battery positive electrode sealing system. Background Art

[0002] During the production and processing of cylindrical batteries, after the battery casing is filled with materials and the positive cap is installed, the positive electrode sealing operation will be carried out. To seal the positive electrode, the rubber ring is first placed into the battery casing from the top, so that the rubber ring is located on the positive cap. The top edge of the battery casing is then bent inward to wrap the rubber ring around it, so that the rubber ring covers the positive cap, completing the positive electrode sealing.

[0003] In the existing battery positive electrode sealing system, the battery transport device first transports the battery to be sealed to the rubber ring installation equipment, and then the robot at the rubber ring installation equipment removes the battery from the battery transport device and sends it to the fixture at the rubber ring installation equipment for clamping and fixing. Then the rubber ring transport device sends the rubber ring to the rubber ring installation equipment, and then the rubber ring installation equipment installs the rubber ring into the battery casing. Then the robot at the rubber ring installation equipment puts the battery back on the battery transport device, and transports the battery to the sealing equipment; then the robot at the sealing equipment removes the battery from the battery transport device and sends it to the fixture at the sealing equipment for clamping and fixing. Then the sealing equipment bends the top edge of the battery casing inward to complete the sealing of the battery positive electrode.

[0004] The existing battery positive electrode sealing system includes a battery transport device, an apron transport device, an apron installation device, a sealing device, two clamps, and two manipulators. The system is complex, resulting in increased manufacturing and purchasing costs, and a large space occupation. The apron application and sealing must be performed at two workstations, and the battery needs to be clamped and fixed twice, making the entire production process complex and affecting production efficiency. Furthermore, it was discovered during use that the existing apron installation device is prone to hard contact with the positive terminal of the positive cap during installation, damaging the positive terminal.

[0005] Therefore, in order to solve the above problems, it is particularly necessary to provide a battery positive electrode sealing system with a simple production and processing process, a simple structure, and the ability to prevent the positive electrode head from being crushed.

[0060] The battery sealing device 4 includes a driving device, on which a sealing rod 9, a support 7 and a lifting rod 8 are arranged from top to bottom; the sealing rod 9 includes an outer rod 903 and an inner rod; the inner rod is arranged inside the outer rod 903 and can move up and down inside the outer rod 903 so that the lower end of the inner rod can extend out of the lower end of the outer rod 903;

[0061] The inner rod includes a driving rod 906 and a pressing rod 908; a sliding groove is provided on the side wall of the outer rod 903, and a slider is provided in the sliding groove. The slider can move up and down in the sliding groove. The inner end of the slider is connected to the driving rod 906, and the outer end of the slider extends out of the sliding groove;

[0062] A pressing rod mounting hole 902 is formed at the bottom of the driving rod 906, and the upper end of the pressing rod 908 is inserted into the pressing rod mounting hole 902 and can move up and down in the pressing rod mounting hole 902; a buffer spring 907 is provided in the pressing rod mounting hole 902, and the upper end of the buffer spring 907 is connected to the top of the pressing rod mounting hole 902, and the lower end of the buffer spring 907 is connected to the upper end of the pressing rod 908;

[0063] A battery installation hole 701 with a top opening is provided in the trolley 7, and a lifting hole 702 is provided at the bottom of the trolley 7. The lifting hole 702 passes through the bottom of the battery installation hole 701.

[0064] The upper end of the lifting rod 8 can pass through the lifting hole 702 and enter the battery installation hole 701;

[0065] The driving device is used to drive the slider to move up and down, so that the inner rod moves up and down inside the outer rod 903, so that the lower end of the inner rod is used to push the battery on the battery loading device 1 into the battery installation hole and the lower end of the inner rod is used to push the rubber ring on the rubber ring loading device 2 into the battery housing;

[0066] The driving device is used to drive the outer rod 903 to move up and down, so that the lower end of the outer rod 903 is used to press the top edge of the battery housing, causing the top edge of the battery housing to bend inward;

[0067] The driving device is used to drive the lifting rod 8 to move up and down, so that the upper end of the lifting rod 8 is used to push the battery out of the battery installation hole 701, allowing the battery to enter the unloading device 3.

[0068] Due to the above structure, when working, the battery feeding device 1 sends the battery to be sealed between the tee 7 and the sealing rod 9, and then the driving device drives the lifting rod 8 to move down and exit the battery installation hole 701, and then the driving device drives the inner rod to move down and push the battery into the battery installation hole 701, so that the battery is fixed in the tee 7 for subsequent installation of the rubber ring and sealing; then the inner rod is driven by the driving device to move up and reset; then the rubber ring feeding device 2 sends the rubber ring between the tee 7 and the sealing rod 9, and then the driving device drives The inner rod moves downward to push the rubber ring into the battery shell; then the driving device drives the outer rod 903 to move downward, so that the lower end of the outer rod 903 presses the top edge of the battery shell, so that the top edge of the battery shell bends inward, wraps the rubber ring, and covers the positive electrode cap to complete the positive electrode sealing; after the sealing is completed, the outer rod 903 moves upward, and then the driving device drives the lifting rod 8 to move upward, so that the upper end of the lifting rod 8 pushes the battery out of the battery mounting hole 701, so that the battery enters the unloading device 3, so that the battery can be transported to the next station.

[0069] Due to the above structure, the battery sealing device 4 of the present invention can complete the installation of the rubber ring and the pressing of the top edge of the battery casing at the same station. The battery positive electrode can also be sealed at the same station, and the battery only needs to be clamped and fixed once, saving clamping and fixing time and improving processing efficiency. The inner rod, support 7, and lifting rod 8 cooperate with each other to complete the clamping and fixing of the battery. Compared with the cooperation of a manipulator and a clamp, the structure is simpler. The battery sealing system of the present invention simplifies the production and processing process and the structure of the entire system, which can improve battery production efficiency and reduce the production and manufacturing costs or purchase costs of the equipment.

[0070] At the same time, in the inner rod, because there is a buffer spring 907 between the driving rod 906 and the pressing rod 908, when the lower end of the pressing rod 908 contacts the positive terminal of the positive electrode cap, the pressing rod 908 can move upward, compressing the buffer spring 907, thereby preventing the lower end of the pressing rod 908 from hard contact with the positive terminal, thereby preventing the positive terminal from being crushed.

[0071] Further, such as Figure 2 、 3 As shown, the driving device includes, from top to bottom, an upper track groove mounting seat 401, an upper turntable 402, a lower turntable 403 and a lower track groove mounting seat 404;

[0072] The upper turntable 402 and the lower turntable 403 are fixedly sleeved on the drive shaft 405, and the drive shaft 405 is used to drive the upper turntable 402 and the lower turntable 403 to rotate; the upper track groove mounting seat 401 and the lower track groove mounting seat 404 are fixedly arranged, and the upper end of the drive shaft 405 is rotatably arranged in the upper track groove mounting seat 401, and the lower end of the drive shaft 405 is rotatably arranged in the lower track groove mounting seat 404;

[0073] The side of the upper track groove mounting base 401 is provided with a circle of track groove 1 4011 and track groove 2 4012, wherein the track groove 1 4011 is located above the track groove 2 4012; the side of the lower track groove mounting base 404 is provided with a circle of track groove 3 4013;

[0074] The upper turntable 402 is vertically provided with an upper through hole 406, and the sealing rod 9 is arranged in the upper through hole 406 and can move up and down in the upper through hole 406;

[0075] The upper end of the outer rod 903 is provided with a roller 1 904; the roller 1 904 is located in the track groove 1 4011; the outer end of the slider is provided with a roller 2, and the roller 2 is located in the track groove 2 4012;

[0076] The lower turntable 403 is vertically provided with a lower through hole 407, and the support 7 is arranged at the upper end of the lower through hole 407; the upper end of the lifting rod 8 extends into the lower through hole 407 from the lower end of the lower through hole 407;

[0077] The lower end of the lifting rod 8 is provided with a roller three, and the roller three is located in the track groove three 4013;

[0078] The driving shaft 405 drives the upper turntable 402 to rotate, causing the roller 1 904 to move along the track groove 1 4011 . The roller 1 904 and the track groove 1 4011 cooperate to cause the outer rod 903 to move up and down in the upper through hole 406 .

[0079] The drive shaft 405 drives the upper turntable 402 to rotate, causing the second roller to move along the second track groove 4012. The second roller and the second track groove 4012 cooperate to cause the inner rod to move up and down inside the outer rod 903.

[0080] The driving shaft 405 drives the lower turntable 403 to rotate, causing the roller three to move along the track groove three 4013 . The roller three cooperates with the track groove three 4013 to cause the lifting rod 8 to move up and down in the lower through hole 407 .

[0081] like Figure 2 、 3 As shown, the driving device of the present invention is a driving tower composed of an upper track groove mounting seat 401, an upper turntable 402, a lower turntable 403 and a lower track groove mounting seat 404; when working, the upper turntable 402 and the lower turntable 403 rotate, which can drive the sealing rod 9 and the lifting rod 8 to rotate, so that the roller 1 904, the roller 2 and the roller 3 move in the track groove 1 4011, the track groove 2 4012 and the track groove 3 4013 respectively, and the outer rod 903, the inner rod and the lifting rod 8 can be lifted and lowered. In this way, the entire driving tower can drive multiple sealing rods 9 and lifting rods 8 to lift and lower, so as to complete the sealing operation of multiple batteries at the driving tower, thereby improving processing efficiency. Figure 2 As shown, the entire upper turntable 402 and lower turntable 403 are provided with a plurality of upper through holes 406 and lower through holes 407. The upper through holes 406 and lower through holes 407 are aligned. A sealing rod 9 is disposed in each upper through hole 406, and a toe 7 and a lifting rod 8 are disposed in each lower through hole 407. Track groove 1 4011, track groove 2 4012, and track groove 3 4013 are arranged in an undulating manner. When rollers 1 904, 2, and 3 are located in the ascending section of track groove 1 4011, track groove 2 4012, and track groove 3 4013, the outer rod 903, inner rod, and lifting rod 8 move upward; when rollers 1 904, 2, and 3 are located in the descending section of track groove 1 4011, track groove 2 4012, and track groove 3 4013, the outer rod 903, inner rod, and lifting rod 8 move downward. The undulations of the track groove 1 4011 , the track groove 2 4012 and the track groove 3 4013 are inconsistent and are set according to the actual movement requirements of the outer rod 903 , the inner rod and the lifting rod 8 .

[0082] like Figure 1As shown, the battery loading device 1, the rubber ring loading device 2 and the unloading device 3 surround the outside of the battery sealing device 4, and the battery loading device 1, the rubber ring loading device 2 and the unloading device 3 are arranged in sequence;

[0083] The outlet of the battery loading device 1 and the outlet of the rubber ring loading device 2 are located between the sealing rod 9 and the bracket 7; the inlet of the unloading device 3 is located between the sealing rod 9 and the bracket 7;

[0084] The driving shaft 405 drives the upper turntable 402 and the lower turntable 403 to rotate, driving the sealing rod 9, the bracket 7 and the lifting rod 8 to pass through the battery loading device 1, the rubber ring loading device 2 and the unloading device 3 in sequence.

[0085] When passing through the battery loading device 1, the lifting rod 8 moves down and exits the rack 7, the inner rod moves down to push the battery on the battery transport device into the rack 7, and then the inner rod moves up again; when passing through the rubber ring loading device 2, the inner rod moves down to push the rubber ring on the rubber ring loading device 2 into the battery shell, and then the outer rod 903 moves down again to press the top edge of the battery shell to complete the sealing, and then the inner rod and the outer rod 903 move up; when passing through the unloading device 3, the lifting rod 8 moves up, and the battery in the rack 7 is pushed into the unloading device 3, so that the battery is sent to the next workstation through the unloading device 3.

[0086] In the present invention, since the upper turntable 402 and the lower turntable 403 are rotating, the upper track groove mounting seat 401 and the lower track groove mounting seat 404 cannot rotate with the upper turntable 402 and the lower turntable 403, otherwise there is no way to control the lifting and lowering of the inner rod, the outer rod 903 and the lifting rod 8.

[0087] When working, Figure 1 As shown, the entire driving device is installed on the supporting platform 5, the lower end of the driving shaft 405 passes through the supporting platform 5, and is connected to the driving motor of the driving shaft 405 below the supporting platform 5, and the lower track groove mounting seat 404 can be directly fixed to the supporting platform 5 by means of bolt connection; since the driving device is a driving tower and its height is relatively high, a bracket 6 is provided around the entire driving tower, and the upper end of the driving shaft 405 can be rotatably connected to the top of the bracket 6 to prevent the entire driving tower from tipping over; the upper track groove mounting seat 401 can be fixedly connected to the top of the bracket 6 by means of bolt connection.

[0088] In this embodiment, the upper rail groove mounting seat 401 is fixed by the alarm cylinder 10, one end of the alarm cylinder 10 is movably connected to the upper rail groove mounting seat 401, and the other end of the alarm cylinder 10 is movably connected to the cylinder seat 1001, and the cylinder seat 1001 is fixedly set on the bracket 6.

[0089] Due to the presence of the alarm cylinder 10, the piston rod controlling the alarm cylinder 10 remains stationary, which can keep the upper track groove mounting seat 401 stationary, ensuring that roller 1 904 and roller 2 can move normally in track groove 1 4011 and track groove 2 4012; when roller 1 904 and / or roller 2 are stuck in track groove 1 4011 and / or track groove 2 4012 and cannot move further, the upper turntable 402 rotates, and the outer rod 903 and inner rod can push the upper track groove mounting seat 401 to rotate accordingly, thereby driving the alarm cylinder 10 to extend or shorten. When the alarm cylinder 10 extends or shortens, it indicates that roller 1 904 and / or roller 2 are stuck in track groove 1 4011 and track groove 2 4012, which serves as a fault alarm.

[0090] The connection point between the alarm cylinder 10 and the upper track groove mounting seat 401 needs to be far away from the center of the upper track groove mounting seat 401 to ensure that the alarm cylinder 10 can be extended and retracted when the upper track groove mounting seat 401 rotates.

[0091] Furthermore, a sealing mold 901 is provided at the lower end of the outer rod 903, and a sealing hole 9011 is provided at the bottom of the sealing mold 901, and the sealing hole 9011 is a blind hole with an opening at the bottom; a sealing chamfer 9012 is provided at the bottom opening of the sealing hole 9011; the sealing chamfer 9012 is used to press the top edge of the battery casing so that the top edge of the battery casing is bent inward; the lower end of the inner rod passes through the sealing hole 9011 and can move up and down in the sealing hole 9011.

[0092] Since the sealing chamfer 9012 is an inclined surface, when the sealing mold 901 is pressed down, the inclined surface contacts the top edge of the battery shell, which can guide the top edge of the battery shell to bend inward, thereby wrapping the rubber ring.

[0093] Furthermore, the pressing rod 908 includes a rod body 9081 and a rod head 9082; the upper end of the rod body 9081 is inserted into the pressing rod mounting hole 902 and connected to the lower end of the buffer spring 907, and the lower end of the rod body 9081 is connected to the upper end of the rod head 9082; the diameter of the lower end of the rod head 9082 is smaller than the inner diameter of the rubber ring, and the diameter of the upper end of the rod head 9082 is larger than the inner diameter of the rubber ring; Figure 5 As shown, the rod head 9082 is a conical shape with a larger top and smaller bottom. When the push rod 908 moves downward, the lower end of the rod head 9082 inserts into the rubber ring, causing the rubber ring to fit over the rod head 9082 and onto the inclined surface of the conical shape. Because the upper end of the rod head 9082 is larger, the upper end of the rod head 9082 can push the rubber ring into the battery housing. Optimally, the rubber ring fits over the lower end of the rod head 9082, with the bottom surface of the rubber ring flush with the bottom surface of the rod head 9082.

[0094] The axis of the inner rod coincides with the axis of the sealing hole 9011, so as to ensure that the rubber ring and the battery shell are concentric, and that each edge of the top of the battery shell bends inward to the same size when pressed.

[0095] In specific implementation, the diameter of the sealing hole 9011 is smaller than the diameter of the battery shell, so as to ensure that the sealing chamfer 9012 can be pressed on the top edge of the battery shell without causing the top edge of the battery shell to enter the sealing hole 9011; the sealing hole 9011 is larger than the outer diameter of the rubber ring, so as to prevent the front end of the sealing mold 901 from touching the rubber ring and crushing the rubber ring.

[0096] Furthermore, a positive electrode accommodating hole 9013 is provided at the bottom of the rod head 9082, and the positive electrode accommodating hole 9013 is a blind hole with an opening at the bottom; the depth of the positive electrode accommodating hole 9013 is greater than the height of the positive electrode, and the diameter of the positive electrode accommodating hole 9013 is greater than the diameter of the positive electrode.

[0097] Due to the existence of the positive head accommodating hole 9013, the positive head of the battery enters the positive head accommodating hole 9013, which can prevent the positive head on the positive cap from contacting the inner rod, prevent the positive head from being crushed, and prevent the positive head from being conductive after contacting the inner rod; at the same time, when the rubber ring is sleeved on the lower end of the rod head 9082, the bottom surface of the rubber ring is flush with the bottom surface of the rod head 9082, and the positive head enters the positive head accommodating hole 9013, the rubber ring can just be located on the surface of the positive cap, so that it is convenient for the top edge of the battery shell to wrap it.

[0098] Furthermore, a return spring 905 is provided in the outer rod 903, the upper end of the return spring 905 is connected to the top of the outer rod 903, and the lower end of the return spring 905 is connected to the upper end of the driving rod 906. The return spring 905 is used to drive the inner rod to move upward and reset.

[0099] Furthermore, an insulating head is provided on the top of the lifting rod 8 to avoid conduction when the lifting rod 8 contacts the bottom of the battery.

[0100] Further, such as Figure 6 As shown, in the toss 7, the axes of the battery mounting hole 701 and the lifting hole 702 coincide with each other, and the diameter of the battery mounting hole 701 is larger than the diameter of the lifting hole 702.

[0101] In this embodiment, the battery loading device 1, the rubber ring loading device 2 and the unloading device 3 have the same structure, and all include a material tray, an arc-shaped baffle and a bottom plate;

[0102] Among them, such as Figure 7As shown, the battery loading device 1 includes a material tray 101, a curved baffle 102 and a bottom plate 1; the material tray 101 is horizontally arranged and can rotate in the horizontal direction; a number of battery fixing grooves 103 arranged at equal intervals are provided on the side wall of the material tray 101; the battery fixing grooves 103 are vertically arranged and cover the entire circle of the material tray 101; the curved baffle 102 is located on the outside of the material tray 101, and there is a gap between the curved baffle 102 and the material tray 101, and the gap forms a battery feeding channel between the curved baffle 102 and the material tray 101; the bottom plate 1 is located below the battery feeding channel; the outlet of the battery feeding channel is located between the sealing rod 9 and the support 7.

[0103] During operation, batteries enter the battery feed channel from the entrance and are positioned in battery holding slots 103. The feed tray 101 then rotates, moving the batteries through the battery feed channel and delivering them to the outlet. Because the battery holding slots 103 are evenly spaced, they can separate the batteries by a certain amount, ensuring sufficient operating time between adjacent batteries, facilitating the operation of each battery at the subsequent station.

[0104] Among them, the rubber ring loading device 2 includes a second material tray, a second arc-shaped baffle and a second bottom plate; the second material tray is horizontally arranged and can rotate in the horizontal direction; a number of rubber ring fixing grooves arranged at equal intervals are provided on the side wall of the second material tray; the rubber ring fixing grooves are vertically arranged and cover the entire circle of the second material tray; the second arc-shaped baffle is located on the outside of the second material tray, and there is a gap between the second arc-shaped baffle and the second material tray, and the gap forms a rubber ring feeding channel between the second arc-shaped baffle and the second material tray; the second bottom plate is located below the rubber ring feeding channel; the outlet of the rubber ring feeding channel is located between the sealing rod 9 and the support 7.

[0105] During operation, the rubber ring enters the rubber ring feeding channel from the entrance and is located in the rubber ring fixing groove 1. Then, the feed tray 2 rotates, driving the rubber ring to move within the rubber ring feeding channel and to the outlet of the rubber ring feeding channel. Because the rubber ring fixing grooves are arranged at equal intervals, the rubber rings can be separated by a certain gap, ensuring sufficient operating time between adjacent rubber rings, facilitating the operation of each rubber ring at the subsequent workstation.

[0106] Among them, such as Figure 7As shown, the unloading device 3 includes a material tray 301, an arc-shaped baffle 302 and a bottom plate 3; the material tray 301 is horizontally arranged and can rotate in the horizontal direction; a number of battery fixing grooves 2 303 are arranged at equal intervals on the side wall of the material tray 301; the battery fixing grooves 2 303 are vertically arranged and cover the entire circle of the material tray 301; the arc-shaped baffle 302 is located on the outside of the material tray 301, and there is a gap between the arc-shaped baffle 302 and the material tray 301, and the gap forms a battery discharge channel between the arc-shaped baffle 302 and the material tray 301; the bottom plate 3 is located below the battery discharge channel; the entrance of the battery discharge channel is located between the sealing rod 9 and the support 7.

[0107] During operation, the processed batteries are lifted and placed into the battery discharge channel through the entrance, where they are positioned in the second battery holding slot 303. The third material tray 301 then rotates, moving the batteries through the battery discharge channel and delivering them to the outlet. Because the second battery holding slots 303 are evenly spaced, they can separate the batteries by a certain amount, ensuring sufficient operating time between adjacent batteries, facilitating the operation of each battery at subsequent workstations.
