After the flip frame is loaded with batteries, only the batteries are flipped each time. After each flip, the battery needs to be returned to the tray for loading the next battery. There is a problem of poor continuity in the reversing operation, which affects the continuity of the subsequent battery loading and unloading processes and affects the production efficiency of the equipment; for this reason, it is urgent to develop a new type of battery reversing and unloading device. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this patent is to overcome the shortcomings of the existing technology and provide a battery switching and loading and unloading device to achieve automatic and continuous switching and loading and unloading of batteries, significantly improving the production efficiency of the equipment.

[0004] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions: a battery loading and unloading device comprising: a conveying mechanism, a loading mechanism arranged on one side of the conveying mechanism; the conveying mechanism is used to convey the battery in a direction perpendicular to the battery axis direction; the loading mechanism is used to lift and lower the battery tray in the vertical direction; a reversing mechanism is provided on one side of the conveying mechanism, and a first loading and unloading mechanism is provided on the other side of the conveying mechanism; the first loading and unloading mechanism corresponds to the loading mechanism and / or the reversing mechanism, and the first loading and unloading mechanism is used to load and unload the battery from the loading mechanism and / or the reversing mechanism to the conveying mechanism. Mechanism; the reversing mechanism is used for reversing the vertical state and the horizontal state of the battery, and the reversing mechanism includes a reversing drive device and a rotating shaft connected to the drive thereof; a reversing frame is provided on the rotating shaft, and the reversing frame is provided with at least two rows of bearing holes, and the bearing holes are used to bear batteries, and the directions of the batteries carried by the two adjacent rows of bearing holes are perpendicular; the reversing drive device drives the rotating shaft to drive the reversing frame to rotate, so that the batteries in the bearing holes of the reversing frame are reversed between the vertical state and the horizontal state; the present technical solution is preferably that the reversing drive device is at least one of a rotating motor and a rotating cylinder.

Therefore, when the reversing drive device drives the rotating shaft to drive the reversing frame body to rotate, for every degree of rotation, when one row of bearing holes rotates from the vertical state to the horizontal state, the other row of bearing holes adjacent to it rotates from the horizontal state to the vertical state, so that the bearing holes are cyclically in the horizontal and vertical states, realizing the continuous operation of battery reversal, significantly improving the production efficiency of the equipment; specifically, the first row of bearing holes is initially in the upward vertical state. After the battery is no longer limited by other external manipulators or other equipment, the reversing frame body rotates, and the first row of bearing holes carrying the batteries are reversed to the horizontal state. At the same time, the second row of bearing holes rotates from the horizontal state to the upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried in the first row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism through the first loading and unloading mechanism. , and the second row of bearing holes can be used to place batteries vertically; then the reversing frame continues to rotate, and the batteries carried by the second row of bearing holes are reversed to a horizontal state, and the third row of bearing holes are rotated from a horizontal state to an upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried in the second row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism by the first loading and unloading mechanism, and the batteries can be placed vertically in the third row of bearing holes; then the reversing frame continues to rotate, and the batteries carried by the third row of bearing holes are reversed to a horizontal state, and the fourth row of bearing holes are rotated from a horizontal state to an upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried in the third row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism by the first loading and unloading mechanism, and the batteries can be placed vertically in the fourth row of bearing holes; then the reversing frame continues to rotate, and the batteries carried by the fourth row of bearing holes are reversed to a horizontal state, and the first row of bearing holes are rotated from a horizontal state to an upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried in the fourth row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism by the first loading and unloading mechanism, and the batteries can be placed vertically in the first row of bearing holes; this cycle is used to achieve the continuity of battery reversing and loading and unloading operations, significantly improving the production efficiency of the equipment.

[0022] See also Figure 1-2, the embodiment of the present patent discloses a battery switching loading and unloading device, comprising: a conveying mechanism 1, a loading mechanism 2 arranged on one side of the conveying mechanism 1; the conveying mechanism 1 is used to convey the battery in a direction perpendicular to the battery axis direction; the loading mechanism 2 is used to lift and lower the battery tray in the vertical direction; a reversing mechanism 3 is provided on one side of the conveying mechanism 1, and a first loading and unloading mechanism 4 is provided on the other side of the conveying mechanism 1; the first loading and unloading mechanism 4 corresponds to the loading mechanism 2 and / or the reversing mechanism 3, and the first loading and unloading mechanism 4 is used to unload the battery from the loading mechanism 2 and / or the reversing mechanism 3 to the conveying mechanism 1; the reversing mechanism 3 is used to adjust the vertical state of the battery to the horizontal state.

[0023] It should be noted that the working principle and process of the reversing mechanism 3 for reversing the vertical and horizontal states of the battery in the above embodiment are as follows: Figure 1 In this embodiment, the commutating frame body 301 is preferably provided with four rows of bearing holes 3031, and the directions of the batteries carried by two adjacent rows of bearing holes 3031 are perpendicular, that is, two rows of opposite bearing holes are provided in the two mutually perpendicular diameter directions of the commutating frame body, that is, Figure 1As shown in the figure, the other side of the reversing frame body with two rows of bearing holes opposite to each other has two rows of bearing holes at the same time. Therefore, when the reversing drive device 301 drives the rotating shaft 302 to drive the reversing frame body 303 to rotate, every time it rotates 90 degrees, when one row of bearing holes rotates from a vertical state to a horizontal state, the other row of bearing holes adjacent to it rotates from a horizontal state to a vertical state, so that the bearing holes 3031 are cyclically in a horizontal and vertical state, realizing the continuous operation of battery reversal, significantly improving the production efficiency of the equipment; specifically, the initial first row of bearing holes is in an upward vertical state, and after the placement of batteries is no longer limited by other external manipulators and other equipment, the reversing frame body rotates 90 degrees, and the batteries carried by the first row of bearing holes are reversed to a horizontal state, and at the same time, the second row of bearing holes rotates from a horizontal state to an upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried in the first row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism 1 through the first loading and unloading mechanism 4, and the batteries can be placed vertically in the second row of bearing holes; then the reversing frame body continues to rotate 90 degrees, and the second row of bearing holes The batteries carried by the row of bearing holes are reversed to a horizontal state, and at the same time, the bearing holes in the third row are rotated from a horizontal state to an upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried by the second row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism through the first loading and unloading mechanism, and the batteries can be placed vertically in the third row of bearing holes; then the reversing frame continues to rotate 90 degrees, and the batteries carried by the third row of bearing holes are reversed to a horizontal state, and at the same time, the bearing holes in the fourth row are rotated from a horizontal state to an upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried by the third row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism through the first loading and unloading mechanism, and the batteries can be placed vertically in the fourth row of bearing holes; then the reversing frame continues to rotate 90 degrees, and the batteries carried by the fourth row of bearing holes are reversed to a horizontal state, and at the same time, the bearing holes in the first row are rotated from a horizontal state to an upward vertical state. At this time, the batteries carried by the fourth row of bearing holes can be unloaded to the conveying mechanism through the first loading and unloading mechanism, and the batteries can be placed vertically in the first row of bearing holes; this cycle is achieved, thereby realizing the continuity of battery reversal and loading and unloading operations, and significantly improving the production efficiency of the equipment.
