Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to battery processing equipment, and more particularly to a splitting and combining system for cylindrical batteries that adapts to production capacity regulation. Background Technology

[0002] With the increasing popularity of electronic products, batteries occupy a core position, leading to higher requirements for battery production speed and quality. Weighing the filled batteries in the cylindrical battery production line is a crucial step in checking whether the filling is qualified. Now, with the upgrading of battery production lines, the filling speed of batteries is getting faster and faster. However, the capacity of the battery weighing system after filling is insufficient to weigh each magnetic shell cylindrical battery. As the filling speed of magnetic shell cylindrical batteries increases, the weighing speed cannot keep up, and each battery cannot be weighed individually, which limits the production speed or reduces the battery qualification rate. Summary of the Invention

[0010] Furthermore, the merging plate device includes a merging track device, a discharge plate device, and a guide rail. The merging track device is located above the discharge plate device, and its inlet end is connected to the battery weighing device. The discharge plate device has a third battery station, and its outlet end is connected to the discharge plate device through the third battery station.

[0011] Furthermore, the feed tray enclosure includes a movable feed tray enclosure, a fixed feed tray enclosure, and a feed tray sensing device. The movable feed tray enclosure is located at the front end of the fixed feed tray enclosure and is rotatably connected to it. The feed tray sensing device is installed on the movable feed tray enclosure. When a battery gets stuck between the feed tray enclosure and the main working tray, the opening and closing system can issue an alarm and stop working, saving production costs for enterprises and improving battery quality.

[0012] Furthermore, a main transition plate device is provided between the main working plate device and the battery weighing device B. The main transition plate device is driven to rotate synchronously by a first drive mechanism. The main transition plate device has several third non-magnetic battery stations. Each of the third non-magnetic battery stations sequentially docks with any of the first magnetic battery stations. The third non-magnetic battery stations dock with the battery weighing device B behind the main transition plate device in the direction of rotation. A main transition plate discharge fence is provided around the circumference of the main transition plate device. The main transition plate discharge fence is located behind the main transition plate device in the direction of rotation at the docking point between the third non-magnetic battery station and the first magnetic battery station. The front end of the main transition plate discharge fence overlaps the main working plate device at the docking point between the third non-magnetic battery station and the first magnetic battery station. The rear end of the main transition plate discharge fence is located at the docking point between the main transition plate device and the battery weighing device B. The main transition plate device is designed to meet the positional space requirements of the battery shunt mechanism, facilitating its docking with the battery weighing device.

[0013] A transition plate device is provided between the working plate device and the battery weighing device A. The transition plate device is driven to rotate synchronously by a first drive mechanism. The transition plate device has several fourth non-magnetic battery stations. Each of the fourth non-magnetic battery stations is sequentially connected to any of the second magnetic battery stations. The fourth non-magnetic battery station is connected to the battery weighing device A behind the rotating part of the transition plate device. A transition plate discharge fence is provided around the transition plate device. The transition plate discharge fence is located behind the rotating part of the connection between the fourth non-magnetic battery station and the second magnetic battery station. The front end of the transition plate discharge fence overlaps the working plate device at the connection between the fourth non-magnetic battery station and the second magnetic battery station. The rear end of the transition plate discharge fence is located at the connection between the transition plate device and the battery weighing device A. Both the main transition plate device and the transition plate device are driven to rotate synchronously by the first drive mechanism. The transition plate device is designed to meet the positional space requirements of the battery shunt mechanism and facilitate its connection with the battery weighing device.

[0014] Furthermore, the discharge tray device is surrounded by a discharge tray device fence.

[0015] Furthermore, the discharge tray device enclosure includes a movable discharge tray enclosure, a fixed discharge tray enclosure, and a discharge tray monitoring device. The movable discharge tray enclosure is located at the front end of the fixed discharge tray enclosure and is rotatably connected to it.

This structure is designed so that when a battery entering the discharge tray device gets stuck between the discharge tray device and the discharge tray device enclosure, the disengagement system will issue an alarm and stop working, thereby reducing enterprise costs and improving battery quality.

[0016] Furthermore, the merging track device is equipped with an S-bend channel. The inlet end of the S-bend channel is connected to the battery weighing device, and the outlet end of the S-bend channel is connected to the discharge tray device. The S-bend channel ensures that the battery always falls horizontally within the merging track device and connects smoothly with the discharge tray device, improving production efficiency. One of the third battery stations is equipped with an R-shaped chamfer. The R-shaped chamfer makes it easier for the battery in the S-bend channel to connect with the third battery station, further improving the working efficiency of the merging and separating system and saving costs.

[0017] Beneficial effects: The advantages of this invention are: the battery splitting and merging system uses the main working plate device and at least one split working plate device to work together to split the batteries, meeting the capacity requirements of the battery weighing device. After weighing, the batteries are merged through at least two merging plate devices to prepare for the next process. This enables normal production of the battery production line even when the battery weighing device capacity is insufficient, improving production speed and efficiency. The S-curve channel setting ensures that the weighed batteries can always fall horizontally onto the merging track device and dock with the merging plate device, maintaining the efficient operation of the battery splitting and merging system. The third battery station is equipped with an R-shaped chamfer, which expands the angle at which the battery enters the third battery station and improves the working efficiency of the battery merging mechanism.

[0023] The present invention will be further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

[0024] A splitting and combining system for cylindrical batteries adapted to production capacity regulation, such as Figure 1-5 As shown, the device includes a battery shunt mechanism 1, a battery weighing device 2, and a battery merging mechanism 3. The battery weighing device 2 consists of multiple independent weighing devices, each capable of weighing the battery. In the battery processing direction, the battery shunt mechanism 1 is located at the inlet end of the battery weighing device 2, and the battery merging mechanism 3 is located at the outlet end of the battery weighing device 2. The battery shunt mechanism 1 shunts the battery before weighing to meet the operational requirements of the battery weighing device 2, while the battery merging mechanism 3 merges the weighed batteries to facilitate the next process.

[0025] The battery shunt mechanism 1 includes a main working disk assembly 11 and at least one sub-working disk assembly 12. The main working disk assembly 11 and the at least one sub-working disk assembly 12 are driven to rotate synchronously by a first drive mechanism. The main working disk assembly 11 rotates around... Figure 1The main working disk device 11 and each sub-working disk device 12 rotate in the indicated direction. Both are cylindrical rotating devices. This can be understood as the main working disk device 11 and each sub-working disk device 12 being driven synchronously by the same drive mechanism. This ensures that the rotation of the main working disk device 11 and each sub-working disk device 12 is synchronous, avoiding misalignment of the docking positions caused by asynchronous rotation, which would require machine stoppage and readjustment, reducing production efficiency and labor costs. The advantage of synchronous rotation is improved working efficiency of the battery shunt mechanism 1. Each sub-working disk device 12 is arranged around the main working disk device 11 and docks with it to form a shunt channel 4. A battery weighing device B22 is arranged around the main working plate device 11 and connected to it to form a diversion channel 4. This structure can be understood as the main working plate device 11 also having a diversion function, that is, the batteries on the main working plate device 11 are diverted at each diversion channel 4. The connection between the main working plate device 11 and the battery weighing device B also has a diversion function and is also a single diversion. Each sub-working plate device 12 is connected to a battery weighing device A21 after rotating at its diversion channel 4. After the batteries on each sub-working plate device 12 are connected to the battery weighing device A21, the batteries are transferred to the battery weighing device A21 for weighing. Battery weighing device A21 and battery weighing device B22 are the same type of battery weighing device 2.

[0026] The battery merging mechanism 3 includes at least two merging disk devices 31 and a synchronous transmission device 32 that are driven to rotate synchronously by the second drive mechanism. Its principle is the same as the synchronous drive principle of the battery shunt mechanism 1. Each merging disk device 31 is connected to a battery weighing device 2. It can be understood that each merging disk device 31 is connected to a battery weighing device 2. Each merging disk device 31 is located above the synchronous transmission device 32 and is connected to the synchronous transmission device 32 to form a merging channel 5. It can be understood that each merging disk device 31 uses the weight of the battery to transfer the battery downward to the synchronous transmission device 32 for merging.

[0027] The specific operation of the battery on the main working plate and the sub-working plates is as follows: the main working plate device 11 has several first battery stations 13 arranged around its circumference. The first battery stations 13 are the stations for transporting batteries. Each sub-working plate device 12 has several second battery stations 14 arranged around its circumference. The second battery stations 14 are the stations for diverting and transporting batteries. Each sub-working plate device 12 connects to the first battery station 13 and the second battery station 14 at the diversion channel 4. That is, a battery is inserted into the first battery station 13 of the main working plate device 11. When the first battery station 13 passes through a diversion channel 4, it transfers the battery to the second battery station 14 of the sub-working plate device 12. The main working plate device 11 connects to the battery weighing device B22 through the first battery station 13. The main working plate device 11 itself also has a diversion function, that is, it diverts the battery through the first battery station 13 connecting to the battery weighing device B22 at the diversion channel 4.

[0028] In the rotational direction of the main working plate device 11, the sub-working plate device 12 is located in front of the diversion channel 4 formed by the docking of the main working plate device 11 and the battery weighing device B22. This can be understood as the batteries on the main working plate device 11 being first diverted by the sub-working plate device 12, and then the main working plate device 11 diverts the batteries again after docking with the battery weighing device B22. The first battery station 13 includes a first magnetic battery station 131 and a first non-magnetic battery station 132. The second battery station 14 includes a second magnetic battery station 141 and a second non-magnetic battery station 142. The first magnetic battery station 131 can attract batteries with magnetic casings. Appendix: The first non-magnetic battery station 132 cannot attract batteries with magnetic casings. Between two adjacent first magnetic battery stations 131, there are the same number of first non-magnetic battery stations 132 as the sorting tray device 12. The second battery station 14 includes a second magnetic battery station 141 and a second non-magnetic battery station 142. The second magnetic battery station 141 can attract batteries with magnetic casings, while the second non-magnetic battery station 142 cannot attract batteries with magnetic casings. Between two adjacent second magnetic battery stations 141, there are the same number of second non-magnetic battery stations 142 as the sorting tray device 12. 42. The first non-magnetic battery station 132 between two adjacent first magnetic battery stations 131 sequentially connects to the second magnetic battery station 141 at each of the distribution channels 4 for distribution. The first magnetic battery station 131 sequentially connects to the battery weighing device B22. The principle of this structure is to form a group of one first magnetic battery station 131 and multiple first non-magnetic battery stations 132 on the main working plate device 11. This group arrangement ensures that when the batteries on the main working plate device 11 rotate and pass through each of the distribution channels 4, they are attracted by the second magnetic battery station 141 on the distribution plate device 12, thereby achieving… To achieve the effect of diversion, the diversion worktable device 12 forms a group of one second magnetic battery station 141 and multiple second non-magnetic battery stations 142. This group setting allows the diversion worktable device 12 to match the first magnetic battery station 131 and the first non-magnetic battery station 132 set on the main worktable at the diversion channel 4, so that it only adsorbs and diverts the battery once in the cycle of a group of first battery stations 13. The first magnetic battery station 131 on the main worktable device 11 docks with the battery weighing device B22 for diversion. The magnetic principle is used to divert the magnetic shell battery to achieve the purpose of saving costs.

[0029] The main working plate device 11 includes a feeding plate device 111, a feeding plate enclosure 112, and a rotating enclosure. Both the feeding plate enclosure 112 and the rotating enclosure are located around the periphery of the feeding plate device 111. The front end of the feeding plate enclosure 112 is located at the battery feeding position of the feeding plate device 111 (where the batteries from the previous process enter the feeding plate device 111), and the rear end of the feeding plate enclosure 112 is located at the first diversion channel 4. The feeding plate enclosure 112 is used to protect the batteries entering the feeding plate device 111 and prevent them from falling. The rotating enclosure is located between two adjacent diversion channels 4. It can be understood that there is a rotating enclosure in both adjacent diversion channels 4. The rotating enclosure is set to prevent the batteries between the two adjacent diversion channels 4 from falling because the batteries on the main working plate device 11 are adsorbed on the first non-magnetic battery station 132 and need to be protected to prevent them from falling.

[0030] The feed tray enclosure 112 includes a movable feed tray enclosure 114, a fixed feed tray enclosure 115, and a feed tray sensor 116. The movable feed tray enclosure 114 is located at the front end of the fixed feed tray enclosure 115 and is rotatably connected to it. This means that the movable feed tray enclosure 114 can rotate around the connection point between the movable feed tray enclosure 114 and the fixed feed tray enclosure 115, moving away from the feed tray device 111. The movable feed tray enclosure 114 is equipped with the feed tray sensor 116. Its working principle is that when a battery enters the feed tray device 111, if the battery is irregularly shaped or otherwise gets stuck between the movable feed tray enclosure 114 and the feed tray device 111, it will affect the normal operation of the battery shunt mechanism 1. This structure is designed so that when a battery gets stuck between the movable feed tray enclosure 114 and the feed tray device 111, it will push the movable feed tray enclosure 114 away from the feed tray device 111. When the feed tray movable fence 114 moves away from the feed tray device 111, the feed tray sensor 116 will be triggered. The feed tray sensor 116 will issue an alarm signal and stop the operation of the splitting and merging system. At this time, manual intervention is required to handle the problem. Each splitting work tray device 12 is equipped with a discharge tray fence 15 around its perimeter. The front end of the discharge tray fence 15 is located at the discharge channel of the splitting work tray device 12. The discharge channel is where the batteries on the splitting work tray device 12 leave the splitting work tray device 12 and enter the battery weighing device 2. The rear end of the discharge tray fence 15 is located at the docking point between the splitting work tray device 12 and the battery weighing device A21. The discharge tray fence 15 is set to further protect the batteries on the splitting work tray device 12, prevent the batteries on the splitting work tray device 12 from being thrown out due to excessive rotation, and improve the working efficiency of the splitting work tray device 12.

[0031] A main transition plate device 16 is provided between the main working plate device 11 and the battery weighing device B22. The main transition plate device 16 is driven to rotate synchronously by a first drive mechanism, that is, the main transition plate device 16 and the main working plate device 11 have a corresponding rotational relationship. The main transition plate device 16 is provided with a plurality of third non-magnetic battery stations 161, or a third magnetic battery station can be provided. Preferably, to save costs, a third non-magnetic battery station 161 is provided. Any third non-magnetic battery station 161 is sequentially connected to any first magnetic battery station 131. The main transition plate device 16 is connected to the battery weighing device B22 at the rear of the rotation direction. The main transition plate device 16 is surrounded by a main transition plate discharge fence 17. The main transition plate discharge fence 17 is located at the rear of the main transition plate device 16 at the docking point between the third non-magnetic battery station 161 and the first magnetic battery station 131 at the rotation direction. The front end of the main transition plate discharge fence 17 overlaps the main working plate device 11 at the docking point between the third non-magnetic battery station 161 and the first magnetic battery station 131. The rear end of the main transition plate discharge fence 17 is located at the docking point between the main transition plate device 16 and the battery weighing device B22.

[0032] A transition plate device 18 is provided between the working plate device 12 and the battery weighing device A21. The transition plate device 18 is driven to rotate synchronously by a first drive mechanism. The transition plate device 18 is provided with a plurality of fourth non-magnetic battery stations 181, or a fourth magnetic battery station. Preferably, to save costs, a fourth non-magnetic battery station 181 is provided. Each fourth non-magnetic battery station 181 is sequentially connected to any second magnetic battery station 141. The fourth non-magnetic battery station 181 is connected to the battery weighing device A21 behind the rotating direction of the transition plate device 18. A transition plate discharge fence 19 is provided around the transition plate device 18. The transition plate discharge fence 19 is located on the outer perimeter of the transition plate device 18. The fourth non-magnetic battery station 181 rotates in the direction of rotation behind the docking point of the second magnetic battery station 141. The front end of the sub-transition plate discharge fence 19 overlaps above the sub-working plate device 12 at the docking point of the third non-magnetic battery station 161 and the second magnetic battery station 141. The rear end of the sub-transition plate discharge fence 19 is located at the docking point of the sub-transition plate device 18 and the battery weighing device A21. The main transition plate device 16 and the sub-transition plate device 18 are both driven to rotate synchronously by the first drive mechanism. The main working plate device 11, the main transition plate device 16, the sub-working plate device 12, and the sub-transition plate device 18 are driven to rotate synchronously by the first drive mechanism. Their function is to make the devices rotate synchronously, avoid misalignment between the devices, and improve work efficiency.

[0033] Each merging plate device 31 is equipped with a third battery station 33, which is a battery transport station. The synchronous drive device 32 is equipped with a fourth battery station 34, which is also a battery transport station. Each merging plate device 31 connects to the third battery station 33 and the fourth battery station 34 at the merging channel 5. That is, when each merging plate device 31 connects to the synchronous drive device 32 at the merging channel 5, each fourth battery station 34 can only connect to one battery. The working principle of the multiple merging plate devices 31 is that before the merging plate devices 31 operate, the merging plate... The device 31 is debugged so that the third battery station 33 on each merging plate device 31 is aligned with the fourth battery station 34. The fourth battery station 34 connected to the third battery station on each merging plate device 31 is different. It can be understood that only one battery can be connected in one fourth battery station 34. The third battery station on each merging plate device 31 needs to be misaligned with the fourth battery station 34. Then, the multiple merging plate devices 31 are positioned and locked. The synchronous rotation relationship between the third battery station 33 and the synchronous transmission device 32 is used to make the battery merging mechanism 3 work smoothly.

[0034] The merging tray device 31 includes a merging track device 311, a discharge tray device 312, and a guide rail 313. The merging track device 311 is located above the discharge tray device 312, and its inlet end is connected to the battery weighing device 2. The discharge tray device 312 is equipped with a third battery station 33, and the outlet end of the merging track device 311 is connected to the discharge tray device 312 through the third battery station 33. That is, the batteries in the merging track device 311 are connected to the third battery station 33 one by one in sequence. The discharge tray device 312 is located above the synchronous transmission device 32, and its discharge tray device 312 is connected to the fourth battery station 34 at the merging channel 5 through the third battery station 33. The batteries connected to the discharge tray device 312 are rotated and connected to the fourth battery station 34 on the merging track device 311. Only one battery can be connected to each fourth battery station 34. Several discharge tray devices 312 are connected to the fourth battery stations 34 at different positions. It can be understood that the fourth battery stations 34 connected to each discharge tray device 312 need to be staggered. The guide fence 313 is set above the third battery station 33 at the merging channel 5. The function of the guide fence 313 is to guide the batteries in the third battery station 33 to leave the third battery station 33 and enter the fourth battery station 34 at the merging channel 5, thereby improving the working efficiency of the merging tray device 31.

[0035] The merging tray device 31 includes a merging track device 311, a discharge tray device 312, and a guide rail 313. The merging track device 311 is located above the discharge tray device 312. The inlet end of the merging track device 311 is connected to the battery weighing device 2. After weighing, the batteries enter the merging track device 311 and fall into it under their own weight, where they connect with the discharge tray device 312. The discharge tray device 312 is equipped with a third battery station 33. The outlet end of the merging track device 311 connects to the discharge tray device 312 via the third battery station 33. 12. The discharge tray device 312 is located above the synchronous transmission device 32. The discharge tray device 312 connects with the third battery station 33 and the fourth battery station 34 at the confluence channel 5. The guide fence 313 is located above the third battery station 33 at the confluence channel 5. The function of the guide fence 313 is to assist in detaching the battery connected to the third battery station 33 from the third battery station 33 and entering the fourth battery station 34. The guide fence 313 makes the battery operation smoother and more fluid, ensuring that the battery can smoothly enter the fourth battery station 34.

[0036] The discharge tray device 312 is surrounded by a discharge tray device fence 314. The discharge tray device fence 314 is located behind the junction of the outlet end of the merging track device 311 and the discharge tray device 312 in the direction of rotation. The front end of the discharge tray device fence 314 is located at the junction of the merging track device 311 and the discharge tray device 312, and the rear end of the discharge tray device fence 314 is located at the merging channel 5. The function of the discharge tray device fence 314 is to prevent the batteries docked at the third battery station 33 from falling off, and to protect the batteries docked at the third battery station 33 so that they can be smoothly docked into the fourth battery station 34. Furthermore, the discharge tray device fence 314 includes a movable discharge tray fence 315, a fixed discharge tray fence 316, and a discharge tray monitoring device 317. The movable discharge tray fence 315 is located at the front end of the fixed discharge tray fence 316 and is rotatably connected to it. The movable enclosure 315 of the discharge tray can rotate around the fixed enclosure 316 of the discharge tray to move away from the discharge tray device 312. The movable enclosure 315 of the discharge tray is equipped with a discharge tray monitoring device 317. It can be understood that when the battery is connected to the outlet end of the merging track device 311 and the third battery station 33, when the battery rotates with the merging tray device 31, there is a certain probability that it will hit the front end of the movable enclosure of the merging tray, causing the battery to become irregularly stuck between the movable enclosure of the merging tray and the merging tray device 31, causing the merging tray device 31 to be unable to rotate or causing more scratches due to mutual collision between the batteries. When a battery is stuck in the discharge tray device 312, the movable enclosure 315 of the discharge tray will be opened, thereby triggering the alarm of the discharge tray monitoring device 317 and stopping the entire machine operation, thereby avoiding the production of more defective batteries and saving production costs.

[0037] The merging track device 311 is equipped with an S-curve channel 3111. The entrance end of the S-curve channel 3111 is connected to the battery weighing device 2, and the exit end of the S-curve channel 3111 is connected to any third battery station 33 in sequence. The function and principle of the S-curve channel 3111 is to control the falling speed of the battery and ensure that the battery always falls horizontally. When the battery enters the merging track device 311 from the battery weighing device 2, if the channel is straight, the battery's center of gravity is at one end, and the battery may stand up or get stuck at an angle during the falling process. When it falls to the docking point with the third battery station 33, the battery gets stuck at the docking point, causing the machine to stop working. The S-curve channel 3111 continuously adjusts the angle of the battery during the falling process to keep the battery horizontal. When it falls to the bottom of the merging track device 3111, it successfully docks with the third battery station 33.

[0038] Each third battery station 33 has an R-shaped chamfer 331. The R-shaped chamfer 331 increases the feed opening of the third battery station 33, making it easier for the battery to enter the third battery station 33 and avoid being stuck, thus improving work efficiency. This is because the battery does not enter through the disc docking device at the third battery station 33, and the interface needs to be larger to facilitate docking.

[0039] Working principle: After filling, the magnetically packaged batteries need to be weighed to check their quality. However, the capacity of the battery weighing device 2 cannot meet the weighing requirements. Therefore, the batteries need to be shunted and weighed separately before weighing. After weighing, the weighed batteries need to be combined and then enter the next process. The main working plate device 11 is equipped with a first magnetic battery station 131 and a first non-magnetic battery station 132. The split working plate device 12 is equipped with a second magnetic battery station 141 and a second non-magnetic battery station 142. The batteries enter the main working plate device 11 and rotate with the main working plate device 11. When the battery on the first non-magnetic battery station 132 rotates to the split channel 4, the battery is just connected to the second magnetic battery station 142. At the second magnetic battery station 141, the batteries are attracted and diverted. After being diverted, the batteries are guided by the transition plate device 18 into the battery weighing device 2 for weighing to meet the capacity requirements of the battery weighing device 2. After weighing, the batteries enter the S-bend channel 3111 of the merging track device 311 and are guided by the S-bend channel 3111 to dock onto the discharge plate device 312. The batteries docked onto the merging plate device 31 are then docked into the fourth battery station 34 of the synchronous transmission device 32 (the third battery station 33 and the fourth battery station 34 on the multiple discharge plate devices 312 are staggered). At this time, the diverted batteries are merged on the synchronous transmission device 32 and run to the next process.
