[0061] By providing the Z upward feeding slide rail 112, the X upward feeding slide rail 113, and the Y upward feeding slide rail, the robot arm can be moved to any position of the tray 125 to pick up the battery.

[0062] Reference Fig.10 As shown, a sampling cabinet 7 is also included. The transport mechanism 22 transports the baked tray 125 in the oven 3 to the sampling cabinet 7, so that the sampling cabinet 7 performs sampling inspection on the batteries in the tray 125 to determine whether the batteries are qualified.

[0063] Specifically, the sampling cabinet 7 includes a sampling bracket 71, a sampling support bracket 72, a sampling mobile mechanism 73 and a sampling manipulator 74. The sampling support bracket 72 is arranged on the sampling bracket 71, and the tray 125 can be placed on the sampling support bracket 72.

The sampling manipulator 74 is arranged on the sampling mobile mechanism 73. The sampling manipulator 74 can move vertically by moving the sampling mobile mechanism 73. The sampling manipulator 74 is used to take the battery cell out of the tray 125 and place it on the working platform of the sampling bracket 71, so that workers or other organizations can detect the sampled battery cells.

[0064] Reference Figure 1 As shown, it also includes a cache rack 8 and a maintenance table 9. The cache rack 8 is arranged on the opposite side of the sampling cabinet 7 and is used to cache the tray 125.

The storage rack is fixed on the top of the storage box, and the storage rack is used to place the damaged tray 125.

[0065] Reference Fig.11 As shown, the present invention also provides a scheduling method for a fully automatic battery cell drying line, comprising the following steps:

[0066] ⑴ The control cabinet controls the dispatching system to move the pallet loaded with cells from the battery loading equipment to the buffer rack;

[0067] ⑵The dispatching system moves the trays loaded with cells from the buffer rack to the oven;

[0068] ⑶ The dispatching system moves the baked tray from the oven to the sampling cabinet to sample the battery cells;

[0069] (4) The dispatching system moves the baking-qualified pallets from the oven to the cooling cabinet for cooling;

[0070] ⑸ The dispatching system transfers the cooled pallets from the cooling cabinet to the battery unloading equipment;

[0071] (6) The dispatching system moves the empty pallet from the battery unloading equipment to the battery loading equipment;

[0072] ⑺Move the damaged pallet to the maintenance station for repair.

[0073] The scheduling method of the fully automatic battery cell drying line of the present invention controls the conveying mechanism to move on the ground rail through the control cabinet, the battery loading equipment fully loads the packaged battery on the tray, the conveying mechanism moves to the battery loading equipment, and carries the tray loaded with batteries in the battery loading equipment to itself, and then moves along the ground rail to the oven, and transfers the tray to the oven for baking. After baking, the conveying mechanism also transfers the tray in the oven to the cooling cabinet to cool the battery, reducing the cooling time of the battery, thereby reducing the baking cycle of the battery. After the battery is cooled, the conveying mechanism transfers the tray to the battery unloading equipment to realize the automated operation process of battery loading, baking and unloading to ensure the battery baking efficiency. The battery does not need to be manually carried during the baking process, and the conveying mechanism automatically completes the handling, thereby improving work efficiency and saving manpower. In addition, since the conveying speed of the conveying mechanism is fast, and the required baking time of the battery in the oven is long, multiple ovens are set on the side of the ground rail. After one oven is fully loaded for baking, the conveying mechanism can transfer the tray to the next oven, so that more batteries can be baked in a unit time, further improving the baking efficiency of the battery.

[0074] In addition, after the battery cells are baked, the trays can be moved to the sampling cabinet for sampling to find out whether the battery cells are baked properly, thereby reducing the production of defective products. If they are qualified, the transport mechanism can move the trays in the oven to the cooling box for cooling; if they are unqualified, the oven needs to continue baking. At the same time, the buffer rack can buffer the trays; the maintenance table can place damaged trays for repair.

[0075] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and does not limit the technical scope of the present invention. Therefore, any slight modifications, equivalent changes and modifications made to the above embodiments based on the technical essence of the present invention are still within the scope of the technical solution of the present invention.
