DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] Two embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0030] The first embodiment is as follows:

[0031] Figures 1-2 A new energy battery shell material conveying device is shown, which comprises a device shell 1 with a controller, a conveying belt assembly is installed inside the device shell 1, the conveying belt assembly comprises two conveying rollers 32 installed between the front and rear inner walls of the device shell 1, an expansion belt body 31 installed outside the two conveying rollers 32, and a motor 34 located at the outer end of the device shell 1, the lower end of the motor 34 is fixedly connected with a stand, the output shaft of the motor 34 is movably penetrated through the device shell 1 and fixedly connected with one of the conveying rollers 32, and the front and rear inner walls of the device shell 1 are also provided with a width control assembly.

[0032] The left and right outer ends of the device shell 1 are fixedly connected with hollow air equalization channels 23, two groups of air holes are opened on the device shell 1, the two groups of air holes are respectively communicated with the two air equalization channels 23, and the ends of the two air equalization channels 23 away from each other are respectively provided with an air inlet pipe 21 and an air outlet pipe 22, and an electromagnetic valve is installed on the air inlet pipe 21, the electromagnetic valve and the width control assembly are signal connected with the controller, and the opening degree of the electromagnetic valve can be controlled to control the hot air inflow speed, the hot air inflow speed is fast, the flow is large, the adsorption pretreatment effect on the water stains on the battery shell is faster and better, and during the conveying process of the battery shell, the expansion belt body 31 has a relatively large water content due to the certain adsorption of the water stains on its surface, and after the hot air is introduced, the water on the expansion belt body 31 can be quickly dissipated, so that the water stains on the battery shell can be continuously adsorbed during the conveying process of the battery shell, and the battery shell can be dried in a relatively short time when it reaches the drying device.

[0033] As shown in Figure 3 , the expansion belt body 31 comprises a porous belt 311 and a plurality of self-resetting coils 4 fixedly embedded on the porous belt 311, as shown in Figure 4 , the self-resetting coil 4 comprises an elastic reel 41 and two adsorption coil pieces 42 wound outside the elastic reel 41, the two adsorption coil pieces 42 are fixedly connected with the elastic reel 41, and the ends of the two adsorption coil pieces 42 away from the elastic reel 41 are fixedly connected with the porous belt 311 on both sides.

[0034] As shown in Figure 6The porous belt 311 and the adsorption roll 42 are made of water-absorbing material and have a porous structure, so that they have permeability, facilitating the shuttling of the hot air flow, and the water stains on the surface of the battery shell can be taken away by the hot air flow in advance during the conveying process to the drying device, and the hot air flow can dry the expansion belt body 31 during the flowing process, so that the expansion belt body 31 can continuously adsorb the water stains in a relatively stable manner during the circulation process.

[0035] The width control assembly includes a rotating rod 51 installed between the front and rear inner walls of the equipment shell 1 through a motorized rotating shaft, two motorized push rods 52 fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod 51, and a width control swing roller 33 fixedly connected to the lower end of the two motorized push rods 52. The width control swing roller 33 is in contact with the expansion belt body 31, so that the expansion belt body 31 is always in a taut state, and the conveying of the battery shell is more stable and effective. Figure 5 During the conveying process, the motorized push rods 52 can be controlled to continuously elongate and shorten, or the motorized push rods 52 and the width control swing roller 33 can be controlled to swing around the rotating rod 51, so that the contact force acting on the expansion belt body 31 changes continuously, and the range in which the two adsorption rolls 42 are separated changes continuously, so that the conveying belt is in a certain shaking state, and the battery shell on the expansion belt body 31 presents a certain dynamic state, which facilitates the falling of the water stains on the surface of the battery shell and makes the hot air flow overflowing from the expansion belt body 31 more fully contact the surface of the battery shell, so that the pre-adsorption treatment effect on the water stains is better.

[0036] In the above new energy battery shell material conveying equipment, as shown in Figure 7 Fig. a shows the battery shell. Through the arrangement of the expansion belt body 31 with the self-resetting roll 4 and the width control assembly, partial adsorption and pretreatment of the water stains on the battery shell with water stains during the conveying process can be performed, the water content of the battery shell when it reaches the drying device is greatly reduced, and the subsequent drying time of the battery shell is effectively shortened.

[0037] Second embodiment:

[0038] The present embodiment adds a color sensor 6 and its related technical features on the basis of the first embodiment, and the remaining parts remain the same as the first embodiment.

[0039] Figure 2 As shown, the color sensor 6 is also installed at the bottom of the equipment shell 1, and the color sensor 6 is located on the side of the rotating rod 51 close to the exhaust pipe 22. The inside of the equipment shell 1 is provided with an illuminating lamp, and the illuminating lamp and the color sensor 6 are both connected to the controller signal. As shown in Figure 3 The porous belt 311 has a double-layer structure, and an indication interlayer 312 is laid in the double-layer structure. The indication interlayer 312 is made of reversible water-color-changing material, such as Figure 8When the water stains on the battery shell are more adsorbed on the expansion belt 31, the color change range of the porous belt 311 will become larger, that is, the color becomes deeper, at this time the color sensor 6 captures the color change signal, which can be fed back to the controller, and the controller determines that the water content of the expansion belt 31 is too large, at this time the opening of the electromagnetic valve on the air inlet pipe 21 is increased to speed up the hot air flow, and the expansion of the expansion belt 31 is controlled by the expansion control assembly to increase the effective adsorption area of the water stains on the battery shell, and the area through which the hot air flow can pass is also increased, so that the pretreatment effect on the water stains is better. On the contrary, when the color gradually becomes lighter or disappears, the expansion can be reduced for transportation, so that the self-resetting roll 4 is not easy to be in a stretched state for a long time, and the self-resetting roll 4 is not easy to be damaged.

[0040] According to a battery shell material conveying method of a new energy battery shell material conveying device, the method comprises the following steps:

[0041] S1, first place the cleaned battery shell on the expansion belt 31 and convey along the expansion belt 31;

[0042] S2, hot air flow is introduced into the equipment shell 1 through the air inlet pipe 21, and is discharged from the air outlet pipe 22, so as to realize the circulation of the hot air flow in the equipment shell 1;

[0043] S3, when the color sensor 6 monitors that the color of the expansion belt 31 surface changes obviously, the signal is fed back to the controller, the controller controls the expansion control assembly to stretch in the vertical direction, so that the self-resetting roll 4 gradually stretches, and the absorption area of the water on the battery shell is increased, then the expansion control assembly is controlled to swing slightly, the self-resetting roll 4 repeatedly stretches and winds, and the controller controls the opening of the electromagnetic valve on the air inlet pipe 21 to increase, so as to speed up the introduction of the hot air flow, which not only speeds up the evaporation of the water adsorbed on the expansion belt 31, but also assists the drying of the battery shell on the expansion belt 31;

[0044] S4, the battery shell is conveyed on the expansion belt 31 until it is conveyed to the battery shell drying device, and the conveying is completed.

[0045] In summary, by means of the extended belt body 31 with self-resetting roll 4 and the setting of the width control assembly, the partial water stains of the battery shell with water stains can be adsorbed and pretreated during the conveying process, the water content of the battery shell when conveying to the drying equipment can be greatly reduced, and the time required for subsequent drying of the battery shell can be effectively accelerated. In addition, during the conveying process, under the action of the color sensor 6, the width of the extended belt body 31 can be controlled in a timely manner according to the water content on the surface of the extended belt body 31, so as to increase the water stain adsorption capacity on the battery shell, and at the same time, the water loss speed of the extended belt body 31 itself can be accelerated, which is convenient for the continuous water stain adsorption of the battery shell, and thus the water content of the battery shell is reduced without affecting the conveying efficiency, which is convenient for subsequent drying treatment.

[0046] In combination with the current actual demand, the above-mentioned embodiments adopted by the present application are not limited to the scope, and various changes made within the knowledge range of those skilled in the art without departing from the concept of the present application still fall within the protection scope of the present application.
