Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of battery cell labeling equipment, and in particular to a battery cell capacity labeling equipment. Background Art

[0002] A battery cell refers to a single electrochemical cell containing a positive and negative electrode and is generally not used directly. Unlike batteries, which contain a protective circuit and casing and can be used directly, a lithium-ion secondary rechargeable battery is composed of a cell + a protective circuit board. The cell is the energy storage part of a rechargeable battery without the protective circuit board. The quality of the cell directly determines the quality of the rechargeable battery.

[0003] Before assembling the battery, the battery cells need to be labeled with their capacity to ensure that subsequent staff can assemble the battery according to the specifications of the battery cells. The labeling of the battery cell capacity requires the use of battery cell capacity labeling equipment;

[0004] The current battery cell capacity labeling equipment is completed by a labeling machine. The traditional labeling machine first takes the label from the label tray and then attaches the label to the surface of the battery cell, which completes the attachment of the battery cell label. However, during the label transportation and label attachment process, the movement of the labeling machine needs to overcome its own gravity and the inertia generated during the label removal and labeling process. In other words, the equipment needs additional power to overcome these gravity and inertia, which requires additional energy to overcome, indirectly increasing the energy consumption of battery cell label attachment. Summary of the Invention

[0005] In order to overcome the above-mentioned technical problems, the purpose of the present invention is to provide a battery cell capacity labeling device to solve the problem in the prior art that the movement of the device needs to overcome its own gravity and the inertia generated during the label removal and labeling process. In other words, the device requires additional power to overcome these gravity and inertia, which requires additional energy to overcome, indirectly increasing the energy consumption of battery cell label attachment.

[0006] The purpose of the present invention can be achieved through the following technical solutions:

[0007] A battery cell capacity labeling device includes a device body, a conveyor belt horizontally arranged on the inner side of the device body, a plurality of battery cell clamping mechanisms uniformly arranged on the outer surface of the conveyor belt, the top surfaces of the battery cell clamping mechanisms clamp the battery cell bodies, and the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism is arranged in the middle of the top surface of the device body. The battery cell capacity labeling mechanism absorbs the label by gravity and inertia and attaches the label to the top surface of the battery cell body.

[0008] As a further solution of the present invention: the battery cell clamping mechanism includes a movable pallet, the bottom surface of the movable pallet is slidably connected to a base, the bottom surface of the base is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the conveyor belt, and the top surface of the movable pallet is provided with inclined surfaces at both ends.

[0009] As a further solution of the present invention: a track slot is provided on the top surface of the movable support plate, a clamping block is provided on the top of the track slot, and a slider that fits with the track slot is fixedly connected to the bottom surface of the clamping block.

[0010] As a further solution of the present invention: the number of the clamping blocks is at least two groups.

[0011] As a further solution of the present invention: a labeling plate is installed on the top surface of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism through a bearing, a drive motor is fixedly connected to one side of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism, a lifting track is provided on the inner side of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism, and a lifting seat is provided inside the lifting track.

[0012] As a further solution of the present invention: a hollow groove is passed through the inner side of the lifting seat, a conical spring is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow groove, and a labeling device is fixedly connected to the center position of the conical spring.

[0013] As a further solution of the present invention: one end of the lifting seat is fixedly connected to a driving sleeve, the output shaft of the driving motor is connected to a driving wheel, and the driving wheel is eccentrically movably connected to the driving sleeve.

[0014] As a further solution of the present invention: the labeling device includes a device body, the bottom surface of the device body is fixedly connected to an adjustment block, and the bottom surface of the adjustment block is provided with an inclined surface.

[0015] As a further solution of the present invention: a labeling head is provided on the inner side of the device body, and the two ends of the labeling head are fixedly connected to the rotating shaft. A guide ring is fixedly connected to the center position of one side of the labeling head. A gravity cavity is provided inside the device body, and a gravity block is provided inside the gravity cavity. The bottom end of the gravity cavity is connected to one end of the rotating shaft through a through groove. A plurality of circular holes are provided on the other side of the labeling head, and the through grooves are connected to the circular holes on the labeling head through the rotating shaft.

[0016] Beneficial effects of the present invention:

[0017] By setting up the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism, the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism can move to the top of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism by inertia, and then generate an adsorption force by gravity to adsorb the label, and then move downward. In this process, gravity and inertia are recovered, and blowing force is also generated by gravity, so that the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism can tightly attach the label to the top surface of the battery cell body, thereby realizing the battery cell capacity labeling process. Since the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism repeatedly utilizes gravity and inertia in the labeling process, the energy consumption of the equipment operation is reduced, energy is saved, and the working cost of the battery cell capacity labeling equipment is reduced.

[0018] Since the bottom surface of the movable pallet is slidably connected to the base, the position of the movable pallet on the top surface of the base can be adjusted. When the position of the movable pallet deviates from the position of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism, the inclined surfaces set at both ends of the top surface of the movable pallet can cooperate with the adjustment blocks on the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism to adjust the position of the movable pallet, thereby ensuring that the movable pallet can accurately correspond to the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism. This can also ensure that the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism can attach the label to a fixed position on the top surface of the battery cell body, thereby improving the label attachment effect.

[0024] The following will clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making any creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0025] like Figure 1-Figure 3 As shown, a battery cell capacity labeling device includes a device body 1, a conveyor belt 2 horizontally arranged on the inner side of the device body 1, a plurality of battery cell clamping mechanisms 3 evenly arranged on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 2, the top surface of the battery cell clamping mechanism 3 clamps the battery cell body 5, and the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 is arranged in the middle of the top surface of the device body 1. The battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 absorbs the label by gravity and inertia and attaches the label to the top surface of the battery cell body 5;

[0026] During operation, since the battery cell clamping mechanism 3 is evenly arranged on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 2, the top surface of the battery cell clamping mechanism 3 clamps the battery cell body 5, so the conveyor belt 2 can transport the battery cell body 5 to the position of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4, and the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 can move to the top of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 by inertia, and then generate adsorption force through gravity to adsorb the label, and then move downward. In this process, gravity and inertia are recovered, and blowing force is also generated by gravity, so that the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 can attach the label tightly to the top surface of the battery cell body 5, thereby realizing the battery cell capacity labeling process. Since the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 repeatedly utilizes gravity and inertia in the labeling process, the energy consumption of the equipment operation is reduced, energy is saved, and the working cost of the battery cell capacity labeling equipment is reduced.

[0027] As an embodiment of the present invention:

[0028] like Figure 2 As shown, the battery cell clamping mechanism 3 includes a movable support plate 31, the bottom surface of the movable support plate 31 is slidably connected to a base 32, the bottom surface of the base 32 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the conveyor belt 2, and the top surface of the movable support plate 31 is provided with inclined surfaces at both ends;

[0029] Since the bottom surface of the movable pallet 31 is slidably connected to the base 32, the position of the movable pallet 31 on the top surface of the base 32 can be adjusted. When the position of the movable pallet 31 deviates from the position of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4, the inclined surfaces set at both ends of the top surface of the movable pallet 31 can cooperate with the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 to adjust the position of the movable pallet 31, ensuring that the movable pallet 31 can accurately correspond to the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4. This can also ensure that the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 can attach the label to a fixed position on the top surface of the battery cell body 5, thereby improving the label attachment effect.

[0030] As an embodiment of the present invention:

[0031] like Figure 2As shown, the top surface of the movable support plate 31 is provided with a track groove 33, the top of the track groove 33 is provided with a clamping block 34, the bottom surface of the clamping block 34 is fixedly connected with a slider 35 that fits with the track groove 33, and the number of the clamping blocks 34 is at least two groups;

[0032] When the battery cell body 5 is placed on the top surface of the movable support plate 31, the clamping block 34 can slide in the track groove 33 through the cooperation of the track groove 33 and the slider 35, and clamped at both ends of the battery cell body 5 to achieve the limitation of the battery cell body 5. The clamping block 34 can be fixed by bolts, or a spring can be set between the clamping block 34 and the movable support plate 31, so that the clamping block 34 generates elastic force, which can make the clamping block 34 act on the end face of the battery cell body 5, thereby achieving the limitation of the battery cell body 5.

[0033] As an embodiment of the present invention:

[0034] like Figure 3 As shown, a labeling plate 41 is installed on the top surface of the cell capacity labeling mechanism 4 through a bearing, a driving motor 42 is fixedly connected to one side of the cell capacity labeling mechanism 4, a lifting track is provided on the inner side of the cell capacity labeling mechanism 4, a lifting seat 43 is provided inside the lifting track, a hollow groove is passed through the inner side of the lifting seat 43, a conical spring 45 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the hollow groove, a labeling device 46 is fixedly connected to the center position of the conical spring 45, one end of the lifting seat 43 is fixedly connected to a driving sleeve 44, the output shaft of the driving motor 42 is connected to a driving wheel, and the driving wheel is eccentrically movably connected to the driving sleeve 44;

[0035] During operation, the drive motor 42 is turned on. Since the output shaft of the drive motor 42 is connected to the drive wheel, the drive wheel is eccentrically connected to the drive sleeve 44. Figure 1 As shown, the driving motor 42 drives the driving wheel to rotate, and the driving wheel causes the lifting seat 43 to reciprocate up and down through the driving sleeve 44. During the up and down reciprocating motion of the lifting seat 43, the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46 will reciprocate up and down synchronously. During the upward movement of the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46, the labeling device 46 will remove the label in the labeling plate 41. During the downward movement of the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46, the removed label can be attached to the top surface of the battery cell body 5. This process is repeated to realize the continuous labeling process of the battery cell body 5.

[0036] As an embodiment of the present invention:

[0037] like Figure 3As shown, the labeling device 46 includes a device body 461, the bottom surface of the device body 461 is fixedly connected to an adjustment block 467, the bottom surface of the adjustment block 467 is provided with an inclined surface, the inner side of the device body 461 is provided with a labeling head 462, both ends of the labeling head 462 are fixedly connected to a rotating shaft 463, a guide ring 464 is fixedly connected to the center position of one side of the labeling head 462, a gravity chamber 465 is provided inside the device body 461, a gravity block 466 is provided inside the gravity chamber 465, the bottom end of the gravity chamber 465 is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 463 through a through groove, and a plurality of circular holes are provided on the other side of the labeling head 462, and the through grooves are connected to the circular holes on the labeling head 462 through the rotating shaft 463;

[0038] During operation, when the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46 move upward, the labeling head 462 will face upward under the action of the guide ring 464. When the labeling head 462 contacts the label on the labeling plate 41, it will prevent the labeling head 462 from continuing to rise. At this time, the gravity block 466 will move toward the top of the gravity chamber 465 under the action of inertia, so that air will be sucked in through the through groove and the circular hole, so that the circular hole will generate an adsorption force, which will enable the labeling head 462 to adsorb the label. Then, under the action of its own gravity, the elastic force of the conical spring 45 and the pulling force of the lifting seat 43, the labeling head 462 When the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46 move downward, the labeling head 462 will face downward under the action of the guide ring 464, so as to ensure that the adhesive surface of the label corresponds to the top surface of the battery cell body 5. When the labeling head 462 contacts the battery cell body 5, the labeling head 462 will press the label on the top surface of the battery cell body 5. At the same time, the gravity block 466 will move downward to the bottom of the gravity cavity 465 under the action of inertia, so that air will be discharged through the through groove and the circular hole, that is, the circular hole will generate blowing force, which can separate the labeling head 462 from the label, thereby realizing the attachment of the label.

[0039] The working principle of the present invention is as follows: the conveyor belt 2 can transport the battery cell body 5 to the position of the battery cell capacity labeling mechanism 4, turn on the drive motor 42, and since the output shaft of the drive motor 42 is connected to the drive wheel, the drive wheel is eccentrically connected to the drive sleeve 44, such as Figure 1As shown, the driving motor 42 drives the driving wheel to rotate, and the driving wheel causes the lifting seat 43 to reciprocate up and down through the driving sleeve 44. During the reciprocating movement of the lifting seat 43, the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46 will reciprocate up and down synchronously. When the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46 move upward, the labeling head 462 will face upward under the action of the guide ring 464. When the labeling head 462 contacts the label on the labeling plate 41, it will prevent the labeling head 462 from continuing to rise. At this time, the gravity block 466 will move toward the top of the gravity chamber 465 under the action of inertia, so it will inhale air through the through slot and the circular hole, so that the circular hole generates adsorption force, which enables the labeling head 462 to absorb the label. Attached, the labeling head 462 moves downward under the action of its own gravity, the elastic force of the conical spring 45 and the pulling force of the lifting seat 43. When the conical spring 45 and the labeling device 46 move downward, the labeling head 462 will face downward under the action of the guide ring 464, so as to ensure that the adhesive surface of the label corresponds to the top surface of the battery cell body 5. When the labeling head 462 contacts the battery cell body 5, the labeling head 462 will press the label on the top surface of the battery cell body 5. At the same time, the gravity block 466 will move to the bottom of the gravity cavity 465 under the action of inertia, so that the air will be discharged through the through groove and the circular hole, that is, the circular hole will generate a blowing force, which can separate the labeling head 462 from the label, thereby realizing the attachment of the label.

[0040] The above is a detailed description of an embodiment of the present invention. However, the content described is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and should not be considered to limit the scope of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made within the scope of the present invention should still fall within the scope of the patent coverage of the present invention.
