Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of new energy battery production technology, and in particular to a method for implementing a material feeding and positioning conveying system. Background Technology

[0002] In the production and manufacturing process of new energy batteries, most production lines involve multiple manufacturing processes to assemble batteries. Existing production lines are mostly dual-layer production lines. The upper layer is the process layer, which processes the semi-finished battery products. The lower layer is the product return layer, which returns the processed batteries to the starting point. Often, semi-finished products need to be manually placed into the process layer inlet and waited for the production line to process and return them to the initial point. The products are then manually removed from the return layer outlet. This is not only inefficient, but also causes human fatigue. Furthermore, it is not possible to ensure that the same product is placed in the same spatial point every time. For automated production lines, this poses a safety hazard and the possibility of accidents. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to provide a method for implementing a material feeding and positioning conveying system, which can connect manual labor with the production line, form a closed loop in the production line, reduce safety hazards, and improve production efficiency.

[0004] 8. To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: a method for implementing a material feeding and displacement conveying system, wherein the method includes the following steps:

[0005] Step S1: Before loading, raise the liftable roller component so that the working surface of the liftable roller component is higher than the height of the conveyor chain of the conveyor component, and load the material tray containing the material onto the liftable roller component.

[0006] Step S2: Lower the liftable roller component so that the material pallet containing the material falls onto the conveyor component of the docking intelligent conveyor line;

[0007] Step S3: The conveyor transfers the material pallet containing the material to the process layer inlet working surface of the intelligent conveyor line;

[0008] Step S4: After assembly on the intelligent conveyor line, the conveyor component is lowered and connected to the return layer outlet of the intelligent conveyor line, so that the products on the return layer of the intelligent conveyor line flow onto the conveyor component.

[0009] Step S5: Raise the conveyor to the initial height using the lifting mechanism;

[0010] Step S6: Raise the liftable roller assembly and remove the product.

[0011] Furthermore, step S1 is further specified as follows: before loading, the lifting cylinder is activated to lift the power roller so that the working surface of the power roller is higher than the working height of the conveyor chain, the material tray containing the material is placed on the power roller, and the power roller is activated to adjust the position of the material tray containing the material to be directly above the conveyor chain.

[0012] Furthermore, step S2 is further specifically defined as the lifting cylinder actuating to lower the power roller to below the working surface of the conveyor chain, so that the material pallet containing the material is placed on the conveyor chain.

[0013] Furthermore, step S3 is further specified as follows: the drive motor drives the second transmission chain to move, the second transmission chain drives the third transmission gear to move, the third transmission gear drives the second transmission shaft to rotate, the second transmission shaft drives the second transmission gear to rotate, and the second transmission gear drives the conveyor chain to move to send the material pallet containing the material into the process layer entrance of the intelligent conveyor line.

[0014] Furthermore, step S4 is further specified as follows: after the assembly is completed on the intelligent conveyor line, the first telescopic cylinder moves the first transmission shaft, the first transmission gear on the first transmission shaft moves the first transmission chain, and the first transmission chain moves the lifting frame down to the return layer height of the intelligent conveyor line, so that the conveyor chain is connected to the return layer outlet of the intelligent conveyor line.

[0015] Furthermore, step S5 is further specified as follows: the finished product on the return layer of the intelligent conveyor line flows onto the conveyor chain, and then the first transmission shaft moves through the action of the first telescopic cylinder. The first transmission gear on the first transmission shaft drives the first transmission chain to move, and the first transmission chain drives the lifting frame to rise to the initial height.

[0016] Furthermore, step S6 specifically involves the lifting cylinder actuating to lift the power roller so that the working surface of the power roller is higher than the working height of the conveyor chain, transferring the product placed on the conveyor chain to the power roller, and the power roller actuating to remove the product.

[0017] The beneficial effects of this invention are as follows: This invention enables seamless integration of manual labor and production lines, reduces safety hazards, improves production efficiency, and facilitates the transition from manual operation to intelligent production. It allows the intelligent production line to function holistically, forming a complete closed-loop production line and creating a unified intelligent production line. The device incorporates a lifting component, a conveyor component, and a liftable roller component. The lifting component moves downwards to connect with the inlet of the intelligent conveyor line, and also conveys upwards to connect with the outlet of the intelligent conveyor line. The conveyor component on the lifting component allows for seamless connection between the product and the conveyor mechanism of the intelligent conveyor line after the product enters the lifting component, facilitating the transition from the lifting component to the intelligent production line. The liftable roller component assists workers in smoothly placing semi-finished products into the lifting component. Attached Figure Description

[0026] The invention will now be further described with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0027] 9. Please refer to Figures 1 to 8 The present invention provides an embodiment: a method for implementing a material feeding and displacement conveying system, the method comprising the following steps:

[0028] Step S1: Before loading, raise the liftable roller component so that the working surface of the liftable roller component is higher than the height of the conveyor chain of the conveyor component, and load the material tray containing the material onto the liftable roller component.

[0029] Step S2: Lower the liftable roller component so that the material pallet containing the material falls onto the conveyor component of the docking intelligent conveyor line;

[0030] Step S3: The conveyor transfers the material pallet containing the material to the process layer inlet working surface of the intelligent conveyor line.

[0031] Step S4: After assembly on the intelligent conveyor line, the conveyor component is lowered and connected to the return layer outlet of the intelligent conveyor line, so that the products on the return layer of the intelligent conveyor line flow onto the conveyor component.

[0032] Step S5: Raise the conveyor to the initial height using the lifting mechanism;

[0033] Step S6: Raise the liftable roller and remove the product.

[0034] The aforementioned feeding and positioning conveying system includes an intelligent conveyor line (not shown), which comprises a process layer and a return layer, arranged vertically above and below the process layer and the return layer. A frame 1 is arranged on the right side of the intelligent conveyor line (not shown), and a lifting component 2 is arranged on the base of the frame 1. A lifting frame 3 is arranged on the front side of the frame 1, and the lifting frame 3 is connected to the output end of the lifting component 2. A first support plate 4 is arranged on the bottom support rod of the lifting frame 3, and a conveying component 5 that connects with the process layer and the return layer is arranged on the first support plate 4. An installation port 7 is opened on the first support plate 4, and the installation port 7 is located between the two conveyor chain support frames of the conveying component 5. A liftable roller component 6 is arranged on the lifting frame 3, and the liftable roller component 6 is located on the installation port 7. The intelligent conveyor line (not shown) transports material pallets containing materials to processing stations, enabling these pallets to be processed. The process layer is where material pallets are placed into the production line for processing. The return layer is where finished products flow out of the production line. Frame 1 is used to fix and install lifting component 2, which drives the lifting frame 3 to move up and down, thereby driving the conveyor component 5 and the liftable roller component 6 to move up and down. The first support plate 4 supports the conveyor component 5. The mounting port 7 is an opening for installing the liftable roller component. The channel 7 enables the lifting of the liftable roller component. The conveyor 5 is used to transport the material pallet containing the material into the production line after docking with the process layer, and to transport the product to the liftable roller component 6 after docking with the return layer. The liftable roller component 6 is used to assist workers in smoothly placing the material pallet containing the material onto the lifting component 2 and to facilitate the removal of the processed product from the lifting component 2. The overall position of the liftable roller component 6 is lower than the conveyor chain of the lifting component 2. The working surface of the conveyor chain of the lifting component 2 will only be raised when the material pallet containing the material needs to be placed into the lifting component 2.

[0035] Please continue reading. Figures 2 to 6 As shown, the lifting component 2 includes a first telescopic cylinder 21, a first drive shaft 22, a first drive gear 23, a first drive chain 24, a first slide rail 25, a first slider 26, a second slide rail 27, a second slider 28, and a connecting block. Two first telescopic cylinders 21 are mounted on the base of the frame 1, arranged side-by-side. The first drive shaft 22 is fixed to the top of each first telescopic cylinder 21, and the first slider 26 is fixed to both ends of the first drive shaft 22. First sliders 26 that cooperate with the first sliders 26 are mounted on the supports of the frame 1 near both ends of the first drive shaft 22. The first drive shaft 22 has a first drive gear 23 rotatably mounted on both ends of the first drive shaft 22. The first drive gear 23 is located between the two first sliders 26. The first drive chain 24 is meshed on the first drive gear 23. One end of the first drive chain 24 is connected to the connecting block, and the other end of the first drive chain 24 is connected to the base of the frame 1. The rear side of the lifting frame 3 is connected to the connecting block. The front support of the frame 1 is provided with a second slide rail 27. The second slider 28 is slidably mounted on the second slide rail 27 and is connected to the rear side of the lifting frame 3. The first telescopic cylinder 21 is used to drive the first drive shaft 22 to move up and down. The first drive shaft 22 is used to mount the first drive gear 23. Under the drive of the first telescopic cylinder 21, the first drive gear 23 drives the first drive chain 24 to work. Since one end of the first drive chain 24 is fixed on the base of the frame 1 and the other end is connected to the lifting frame 3 via the connecting block, it can move up and down. When the first telescopic cylinder 21 lifts the first drive shaft 22, the first drive gear 23 will mesh with the first drive chain 24, causing the end of the first drive chain 24 connected to the lifting frame 3 to move upward, thereby driving the lifting frame 3 to move upward. The first slider 26 and the first slide rail 25 are used to guide the up and down movement of the first drive shaft 22. The second slider 28 and the second slide rail 27 are used to guide the up and down movement of the lifting frame 3. The connecting block is used to connect the lifting frame 3 to the first drive chain 24, so that the lifting frame 3 follows the movement when the first drive chain 24 moves.

Both ends of the second drive shaft 52 are connected to the corresponding second drive gear. The third drive gear 53 is sleeved on the second drive shaft 52, and the second drive chain 54 meshes with the third drive gear 53. The drive motor 51 is mounted on the first support plate 4, and the output end of the drive motor 51 is connected to the third drive gear 53 via the second drive chain 54. The drive motor 51 drives the third transmission gear 53 to rotate via the second transmission chain 54. The third transmission gear 53 drives the second transmission shaft 52 to rotate. The second transmission shaft 52 drives the second transmission gear to rotate. The conveyor chain 55 forms a closed loop and moves under the rotation of the two second transmission gears. The conveyor chain support frame 56 is used to install the conveyor chain 55 and the second transmission gear.

Two photoelectric monitoring switches 11 are arranged on the side of the fixing plate 10 near the intelligent conveyor line (not shown), and two buffers 12 are arranged on the same side. The two photoelectric monitoring switches 11 are located between the two buffers 12. Two second limiting blocks 13 are arranged on the same side of the fixing plate 10 near the intelligent conveyor line (not shown), and the two buffers 12 are located between the two second limiting blocks 13. The fixing plate 10 is used to fix the photoelectric monitoring switches 11, buffers 12, and second limiting blocks 13. The photoelectric monitoring switches 11 are used to detect the material pallet on the conveyor chain to detect its position. The buffers 12 are used to buffer the impact of the material pallet on the fixing plate 10 after it moves into position, so that the material pallet stops slowly. The second limiting blocks 13 are used to limit the material pallet on the conveyor chain 55 to prevent it from moving excessively on the conveyor chain 55 and derailing.

The lifting cylinder 61 is used to lift the power roller 62, so that when a material pallet needs to be placed on the power roller 62, the power roller 62 exceeds the working surface of the conveyor chain 55 of the conveyor component 5. After the material pallet is placed on the power roller 62, the power roller 62 rotates to adjust the position of the material pallet. After adjustment, the material pallet can be safely resting on the conveyor chain 55 after lowering, driving the power roller 62 to descend below the working surface of the conveyor chain 55 of the conveyor component 5, so that the material pallet is supported on the conveyor component 5. On the conveyor chain 55, the drive roller 62 is used for loading and unloading. The guide shaft 63 and the linear bearing 64 cooperate to guide the up and down movement of the drive roller 62.
