[0061] A support frame 23 for supporting the lower support shell 22 is installed at the bottom thereof, that is, the support frame 23 is used to support the lower support shell 22;

[0062] The reciprocating mechanism 43 includes a rotating disk 431, a synchronous shaft 432, a push rod 433 and a guide rail 434.

[0065] A support ring 6 is fixedly sleeved on the outer side of the multiple guide wheels 45 located at the bottom of the upper support shell 21, and when the spacing between the half-cell battery sheets is greater than 3 cm, the multiple support rings 6 are used to hold up the half-cell battery sheets. In the present invention, the spacing between the half-cell battery sheets can also be adjusted according to the actual production. The size of the half-cell battery sheet is preferably 266 mm x 182 mm, and in this example, the spacing between the half-cell battery sheets is preferably set to 3 cm;

[0066] Specific implementation process: When the present invention is in use, the position of the lower support shell 22 is close to the visual detection mechanism 3, and the position of the upper support shell 21 is close to the flipping and conveying mechanism 13, that is, when the half-cell battery is moved along the water flow transport mechanism 1 to the return mechanism 2, until a half-cell battery is moved close to the lower support shell 22, the rotation mechanism 42 is operated to drive the reciprocating mechanism 43 to operate, and then the two connecting frames 44 at the lower support shell 22 are moved along the outer side of the half-cell battery, that is, when the half-cell battery is moved to the position detection mechanism 7 at the lower support shell 22, the multiple guide wheels 45 are synchronously moved to the outer side of the half-cell battery;

[0067] At this time, the rotating mechanism 42 located at the upper support shell 21 drives the reciprocating mechanism 43 to operate, so that the two connecting frames 44 at the upper support shell 21 drive the multiple guide wheels 45 thereon to move toward each other, that is, when the upper half-sheet battery cell deviates from the position of the upper support shell 21, the chamfering detection mechanism 8 at the upper support shell 21 moves to the water flow transport mechanism 1 to perform "interception detection" on the next half-sheet battery cell;

[0068] See also Figure 6 to Figure 7 , a position detection mechanism 7 is installed on both connecting frames 44 located at the lower support shell 22, and the position detection mechanism 7 is located at the forward end of the half-cell battery sheet. The position detection mechanism 7 includes a fixed rod 71 fixedly installed on the connecting frame 44, and an extension rod 72 is connected to one end of the fixed rod 71, and the extension rod 72 faces the water flow transport mechanism 1, and a plurality of limiting wheels 73 are installed at equal distances at the bottom of the extension rod 72, and the plurality of limiting wheels 73 are on the same Y axis;

[0069] An intermediate plate 74 is installed between the plurality of limiting wheels 73 . The intermediate plate 74 is fixedly installed on the extension rod 72 . A first pressure sensor 75 is fixedly installed on one side of the intermediate plate 74 close to the connecting frame 44 , and a contact plate 76 is installed on the outer side of the first pressure sensor 75 .

[0070] Specific implementation process: when a half-cell moves to the lower support shell 22, the two connecting frames 44 at the lower support shell 22 move toward each other, and while moving, the extension rod 72 moves to the top of the water flow transport mechanism 1, that is, above the conveyor belt, and until one end of the half-cell contacts the contact plate 76, the first pressure sensor 75 detects a signal, thereby sending the signal to the encoding controller, and the encoding controller detects the time value detected by the timer to detect the time when the half-cell moves to the position, so as to facilitate the judgment of the position of the next half-cell;

[0071] See also Figures 11 to 13 , a chamfer detection mechanism 8 is installed on both connecting frames 44 of the upper supporting shell 21, and the chamfer detection mechanism 8 is located at the forward end of the half-cell battery sheet. The chamfer detection mechanism 8 includes a positioning rod 81 fixedly connected to one end of the connecting frame 44 at the upper supporting shell 21, and the positioning rod 81 is close to the lower supporting shell 22;

[0072] An L-shaped limit baffle 82 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the positioning rod 81, and a contact member 83 is installed at the limit baffle 82. The contact member 83 includes an arc-shaped soft board 831, a receiving block 832, a second pressure sensor 833, a moving rod 834, a moving plate 835, a support rod 836, a buffer spring 837, a third pressure sensor 838, an electromagnet 839 and an iron block 8391. The arc-shaped soft board 831 is located on the side of the limit baffle 82 close to the half-cell battery sheet, and the receiving block 832 is fixedly installed on the arc-shaped soft board 831, and the receiving block 832 is close to the side of the limit baffle 82. A receiving port is provided inside the receiving block 832, and a limiting groove connected to the receiving port is opened on the arc-shaped soft board 831, and the third pressure sensor 838 is fixedly installed inside the receiving port;

[0073] One end of the moving rod 834 is fixedly connected to the accommodating block 832, and the moving rod 834 slides through the limit baffle 82, one end of the moving plate 835 is fixedly connected to the moving rod 834, and two support rods 836 are provided. The two support rods 836 are fixedly connected to the side of the limit baffle 82 away from the half-cell battery sheet, and one end of the support rod 836 passes through the moving plate 835 and is fixedly connected to the positioning plate, and the support rod 836 is slidably connected to the moving plate 835;

[0074] The buffer spring 837 is sleeved on the outside of the support rod 836, one end of the buffer spring 837 is fixedly connected to the moving plate 835, and the other end of the buffer spring 837 is connected to the second pressure sensor 833, and the second pressure sensor 833 is fixedly installed on the positioning plate;

[0076] A moving frame 24 is installed above the upper supporting shell 21 , and a moving mechanism 5 is installed on the moving frame 24 . The moving mechanism 5 is used to drive the upper supporting shell 21 .

[0077] That is, in this embodiment, when the chamfering direction of the half-cell battery cell is inconsistent, then at this time, the unchamfered side of the half-cell battery cell is close to the arc-shaped soft board 831, and its right-angle end moves to the receiving block 832 through the receiving groove at the arc-shaped soft board 831, and then contacts the third pressure sensor 838. The third pressure sensor 838 sends a signal to the coding controller, and the coding controller is used to send a signal to the early warning system, and the early warning system issues an early warning.

[0078] Specific implementation process: when the upper half-cell moves away from the bottom of the upper support shell 21, the two connecting frames 44 located at the upper support shell 21 move toward each other. At this time, the multiple guide wheels 45 at the upper support shell 21 are relatively located outside the half-cell, and the support ring 6 at the guide wheel 45 is located below one side of the half-cell, that is, in this state, the support ring 6 does not affect the movement of the half-cell;

[0079] That is, until one end of the half-cell is about to approach the arc-shaped soft board 831, when the chamfering direction of the half-cell is consistent, the arc-shaped soft board 831 is squeezed by the arc-shaped end of the half-cell, and the arc-shaped soft board 831 is under the action of the moving rod 834, the moving plate 835, the support rod 836 and the buffer spring 837, and the second pressure sensor 833 detects a signal, thereby sending the signal to the encoding controller, and the encoding controller uses a timer to judge the moving time of the half-cell, thereby combining the moving time of the previous half-cell to judge the distance between the two half-cells. At this time, the electromagnet 839 is energized, so that the arc-shaped soft board 831 is relatively fixed at the limit baffle 82 through the iron block 8391, thereby not affecting the movement of the half-cell;

[0080] When the spacing between the half-cells is too small, that is, the spacing between the half-cells is less than 3 cm, then at this time, the two connecting frames 44 located at the upper support shell 21 are relatively still until the encoding controller combines with the timer to determine the time value for the required interval at the required distance, that is, after a certain time, the two connecting frames 44 move in opposite directions, so that at this time, the half-cells are moved by the water conveying mechanism 1, so as to adjust the spacing between the half-cells;

[0081] See also Figures 9 and 10The moving mechanism 5 includes a moving member 51, a synchronous plate 52 and a lifting member 53. The moving member 51 is installed on the moving frame 24, and the synchronous plate 52 is installed at the output end of the moving member 51. The lifting member 53 is installed at the bottom of the synchronous plate 52, and the lifting member 53 is used to support and connect the upper support shell 21;

[0082] When the spacing between the half-cells is too large, the multiple guide wheels 45 at the two connecting frames 44 not only move to the outside of the half-cells, but also operate through the lifting member 53, so that the upper support shell 21 moves up along the vertical plane. When the upper support shell 21 moves up, the support ring 6 at the multiple guide wheels 45 further synchronously lifts the half-cells, and the encoder controller calculates the required compensation spacing, so that the moving member 51 operates, and by adjusting the moving speed of the moving member 51, the moving speed of the upper support shell 21 relative to the lower support shell 22 is further adjusted. , and while the two connecting frames 44 at the upper supporting shell 21 drive the half-cell battery thereon to move, the multiple guide wheels 45 located at the lower supporting shell 22 are relatively far apart, thereby not affecting the movement of the half-cell battery, until it moves to the desired position, and then the lifting member 53 is operated to place the half-cell battery on the conveyor belt at the water conveying mechanism 1, and then the multiple guide wheels 45 at the upper supporting shell 21 deviate from the half-cell battery and quickly return to their original positions, while the two connecting frames 44 located at the lower supporting shell 22 move toward each other, thereby realizing the limiting guidance of the adjusted half-cell battery.

[0083] Embodiment 2

[0084] See also Fig.10 , Embodiment 2 is a further supplementary explanation of Embodiment 1, specifically: the moving member 51 includes two moving screw rods 511 rotatably connected to the moving frame 24, and one end of the two moving screw rods 511 located outside the moving frame 24 is fixedly installed with a rotating gear 513, and a synchronous belt 512 is transmission-connected between the two rotating gears 513, and a driving motor 514 for driving one of the rotating gears 423 is installed on the moving frame 24;

[0085] That is, by driving the motor 514, the two rotating gears 513 are caused to rotate synchronously. When the two rotating gears 513 rotate synchronously, the two moving screw rods 511 are further caused to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the synchronization plate 52, and then the synchronization plate 52 drives the upper support shell 21 below it to move along the direction of the lower support shell 22.

[0086] Embodiment 3

[0087] See also Fig.10, Embodiment 3 is a further supplementary explanation of Embodiment 1, specifically: the lifting member 53 includes a lifting cylinder 531 fixedly mounted on the bottom of the synchronization plate 52, and the output end of the lifting cylinder 531 is fixedly connected to the upper support shell 21;

[0088] Thus, the lifting cylinder 531 is operated to adjust the height position of the upper support shell 21 relative to the water flow transport mechanism 1.
