Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of battery palletizing equipment, and in particular relates to a palletizing device for a battery conveyor line. Background Art

[0002] A battery is a device that can store electrical energy as chemical energy and convert the chemical energy into electrical energy again when it needs to be discharged. Lead-acid batteries have a stable operating voltage, a wide operating temperature and current range, can be charged and discharged for hundreds of cycles, have good storage performance, and are relatively low in cost, so they are widely used. They are widely used in the fields of automotive batteries and electric vehicle batteries. After the batteries are assembled, they need to be packed in cartons and shipped. Before packing, a pallet or other carrier is placed on the platform, and then they are stacked manually.

[0003] The existing palletizing method generally uses a mechanical arm or a multi-directional drive mechanism to clamp and stack the batteries. Since the battery has a relatively large weight, when its gripping assembly is gripping the material, there is a risk that the battery will fall due to unstable gripping; at the same time, the stacked batteries are only simply stacked, and there is a risk of tipping due to unstable stacking, which is also a problem that the stacking height is greatly limited.

[0004] In view of the above-mentioned problems of insufficient stability in clamping and grasping and low stability in stacking, the present invention designs a stacking device for a battery conveyor line. Summary of the invention

[0005] The purpose of the present invention is to provide a stacking device for a battery conveyor line. Through the action of the battery conveyor line and the stacking device, the batteries are lifted and horizontally moved to the stacking position; compared with the traditional clamping and grabbing method, the lifting and moving method can greatly reduce the risk of falling; it has the advantage of improving operational safety; and solves the problem of insufficient stability of clamping and grabbing mentioned above.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the horizontal driving mechanism includes an electric push rod, a sliding seat and a sliding guide rail; the electric push rod and the sliding guide rail are fixedly installed on the frame; the telescopic end of the electric push rod is fixedly installed with a sliding seat; the bottom of the sliding seat is slidably matched with the upper surface of the sliding guide rail; the horizontal driving mechanism provides a horizontal driving function with a large deadweight support.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a receiving groove is provided on one end surface of the lifting seat, and a reciprocating cylinder is fixedly installed on the other end surface of the lifting seat; a telescopic fork is fixed to the telescopic end of the reciprocating cylinder; the telescopic fork is slidably matched with the inner wall of the receiving groove; the telescopic fork is retracted and accommodated in the receiving groove, so that the receiving groove of the lifting seat can be as close to the pallet and the battery as possible, and then the telescopic fork is inserted into the pallet as much as possible, which also improves the stability of the lifting.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, a limiting slide groove is provided in the middle of the sliding guide rail; the telescopic end of the lifting cylinder group passes through the limiting slide groove and slides with the inner wall of the limiting slide groove.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution of the present invention, the battery conveyor line is equipped with a positioning mechanism in front of the palletizing device; the positioning mechanism includes a guide plate, a lateral limit plate and a longitudinal baffle; guide plates are fixedly installed on two opposite sides of the battery conveyor line, and lateral limit plates are fixed at the ends of the two guide plates; longitudinal baffles are fixed at the ends of the lateral limit plates; the positioning mechanism guides the pallet and the battery to a fixed position, which is used to facilitate the operation of the palletizing device, and the palletizing operation can be performed by simply resetting to the fixed position.
