The battery assembly station is the starting point, where the raw materials of the battery are assembled, and then the battery is transported to the battery reprocessing station by the conveyor belt 2, and the battery is stacked and coated, so that multiple batteries can be combined together for testing and use;
[0034] For the battery assembly station, a battery assembly mechanism 3 is provided on the battery assembly station and includes a material tray 31 for holding battery raw materials, a processing seat 32 for placing materials for processing, and a material taking arm 33 for taking and releasing materials. The material taking arm 33 includes a gas dividing cross arm 331 and a plurality of material taking suction cup arms 332 installed on the gas dividing cross arm 331. The gas dividing cross arm 331 is connected to an external negative pressure device. A material trough 31a is provided on the material tray 31. The number of the material taking suction cup arms 332 is greater than or equal to the number of the material troughs 31a. The material taking suction cup arms 332 are driven by a moving assembly 34.

[0035] The button cell raw materials include a positive electrode shell, a positive electrode sheet, a sealing ring, a diaphragm, a negative electrode sheet, a negative electrode cover, etc., and a liquid injection mechanism 35 is also provided on the machine base 1. The liquid injection mechanism 35 includes an injection frame 351 and an injection head 352 driven by a liquid injection cylinder 353. The non-aqueous electrolyte solution is added to the battery raw materials placed on the processing seat 32 through the injection head 352, specifically, it is added to the positive electrode shell. After the button cell raw materials are added to the last negative electrode cover, a material combination press head 36 is provided above the processing seat 32, and the material combination press head 36 descends to press and form the battery raw materials into a battery body A. The battery body A formed on the processing seat 32 is transferred to the conveyor belt 2 in front of the material tray 31 across the material tray 31 through the material suction cup arm 332 of the material taking arm 33, and the battery body A is moved to the battery reprocessing station through the conveyor belt 2;
[0036] In this embodiment, a guide frame 21 is provided on the conveyor belt 2 for guiding the button batteries on the conveyor belt 2 so that they are gathered at a required position before the battery reprocessing station.
[0037] For the battery reprocessing station, a station turntable 4 is provided at the battery reprocessing station, and a material transfer station 5, a film coating station 6, a heating station 7 and a material unloading station 8 are provided through the station turntable 4. A plurality of supporting seats 41 are arranged around the station turntable 4. The battery body A on the conveyor belt 2 is transferred to the supporting seat 41 by a material transfer assembly at the material transfer station 5. In the present embodiment, a plurality of battery bodies A are placed on the supporting seat 41 and the battery bodies A are vertically stacked on the supporting seat 41. The stacked battery bodies A are nested with heat shrinkable films at the film coating station 6, and the heat shrinkable films are shrunk and wrapped around the stacked battery bodies A by the heating station 7. Subsequently, a push plate is added at the unloading station 8 through a cylinder to drive the battery body A to be pushed down from the supporting seat 41. It should be noted that those skilled in the art can adopt existing technical means to implement the requirements of the film coating station 6 and the heating station 7.
[0038] As for the material shifting assembly, the material shifting assembly includes a transposition rotating shaft 51 driven by a rotating lifting mechanism 52, a side expansion arm 53 installed on the transposition rotating shaft 51 and extending to both sides, and a transposition suction cup arm 54 installed on the side expansion arm 53 and connected to the negative pressure system. The material shifting assembly is divided into a belt position side and a disk position side according to the different directions of the conveyor belt 2 and the station turntable 4 through the side expansion arm 53. The rotating lifting mechanism 52 drives the transposition rotating shaft 51 to rotate so that the side expansion arm 53 is switched between the belt position side and the disk position side, and drives the transposition rotating shaft 51 to rise and fall so that the transposition The suction cup arm 54 is close to the conveyor belt 2 and the workstation turntable 4. The rotary lifting mechanism 52 includes a transposition motor and a transposition cylinder. The transposition motor and the transposition shaft 51 are connected by belt transmission. The transposition cylinder is arranged below the transposition shaft 51, so that the transposition shaft 51 can be driven to rotate and to be lifted. The side arms 53 on both sides of the transposition shaft 51 respectively adsorb the battery body A on the conveyor belt 2 and place the battery body A on the bearing seat 41, and the side arms 53 on both sides are rotated by the transposition shaft 51 to perform position conversion;
[0039] In this embodiment, the material moving assembly also includes a first horizontal platform 55 and a second horizontal platform 56. The first horizontal platform 55 is horizontally installed on the transposition shaft 51. A guide column 531 is provided at the bottom end of the side expansion arm 53 and the guide column 531 is vertically slidably installed on the first horizontal platform 55. The second horizontal platform 56 is installed above the first horizontal platform 55. A compression spring 57 is provided between the second horizontal platform 56 and the side expansion arm 53 to provide a downward elastic force for the side expansion arm 53. When the side expansion arm 53 is used in basic use, when the second battery is stacked on the battery body A on the bearing seat 41, it can be directly lowered. The descending transposition sucker arm 54 is restricted in position, so that the transposition sucker arm 54 and the side extension arm 53 on the tray side are pressed on the two battery bodies A while the transposition shaft 51 continues to descend. When it descends to the point where the transposition sucker arm 54 on the belt side is adsorbed onto the battery body A on the conveyor belt 2, the transposition shaft 51 rises. At this time, the battery body A on the tray side has been placed on the first battery. If only two batteries need to be stacked, the station turntable 4 can move slowly and then move to replace the carrier 41 at the required speed. If multiple batteries are needed, the continuously rotating transposition shaft 51 can continue to perform the stacking operation.
[0040] In this embodiment, the material moving assembly further includes a height adjustment assembly 58, which includes a bracket 581 and a high-position variable disk 582 movably mounted on the bracket 581. The top of the high-position variable disk 582 includes end faces of different heights. The end faces at a high position are used to support the guide column 531 on the disk side, so that the transposition suction cup arm 54 for stacking the battery body A on the disk side does not need to apply additional pressure to the originally stacked battery body A, thereby preventing the battery body A from being misplaced or falling off. In this embodiment, the high-position variable disk 582 includes end faces of different heights. The end faces at a high position are used to support the guide column 531 on the disk side, so that the transposition suction cup arm 54 for stacking the battery body A on the disk side does not need to apply additional pressure to the originally stacked battery body A, thereby preventing the battery body A from being misplaced or falling off. The end surface at the top of 82 includes a flat portion 582b and a high portion 582c. The vertical spacing between two adjacent end surfaces at different levels is greater than or equal to the thickness of the battery body A. The guide column 531 of the side arm 53 descending on the tray side contacts the high portion 582c, and then stops descending at a level higher than the side arm 53 on the belt side. The high-position variable disk 582 is driven by the rotary drive structure and rotates with the transposition shaft 51 to perform position conversion, so that the end surfaces at different heights move to the bottom of the guide column 531 on the tray side.
[0041] It should be noted that the high-position variable disk 582 is annular and eccentrically arranged with respect to the transposition rotating shaft 51. The distance between the inner edge of the high-position variable disk 582 and the transposition rotating shaft 51 on the belt position side is smaller than the distance between the inner edge of the high-position variable disk 582 and the transposition rotating shaft 51 on the disk position side. The flat portion 582b and the high-position portion 582c are arranged in an annular range on the top surface of the high-position variable disk 582. The width of the annular range is smaller than the distance between the guide column 531 on the belt position side and the transposition rotating shaft 51. Because the side arm 53 on the belt position side does not need to be changed in height, when the flat portion 582b at a low position is rotated to the disk position side, the high-position portion 582c on the belt position side is avoided from affecting the side arm 53 on the belt position side.
[0042] It should be noted that the number of end faces at different heights at the top of the high-position variable disk 582 corresponds to the button batteries to be stacked, and is usually provided with two or more. When two battery bodies A need to be stacked, the end faces at different heights at the top of the high-position variable disk 582 are provided with two or multiples of two. In this embodiment, the end faces at different heights at the top of the high-position variable disk 582 are provided with three, so there are two high-position parts 582c, and the latter high-position part 582c is one level higher than the previous high-position part 582c. The difference of the one level is the vertical spacing between two adjacent end faces at different horizontal heights, and is greater than or equal to the thickness of the battery body A.
[0043] Moreover, for the rotational driving structure part that drives the high-position variable disk 582 to rotate, the suitable height component 58 also includes a transfer arm 583, which is rotatably mounted at the bottom end of the bracket 581, and the position of the transfer arm 583 on the bracket 581 includes a basic position and an extreme position. The bracket 581 is provided with a blocking structure at the basic position and the extreme position of the transfer arm 583, and an elastic member is provided between the transfer arm 583 and the bracket 581 to provide the transfer arm 583 with elastic force to reset it to the basic position; a lower shifting block 584 is provided at the bottom end of the transfer arm 583, and an upper lateral branch 511 is provided on the transposition shaft 51. The rotation of the transposition shaft 51 drives the upper lateral branch 511 to contact the lower shifting block 584 and then drives the transfer arm 583 to rotate; an upper shifting tooth 585 that pops up upward is provided at the top of the transfer arm 583. The shifting tooth 585 is driven by the torsion spring to bounce upward, and a ratchet surface 582a is provided on the bottom surface of the high-position variable disk 582, and the side branches 511 on the shaft are provided on both sides of the transposition shaft 51, and the ratchet surface 582a is surrounded by a plurality of unidirectional ratchets. The transfer shifting arm 583 rotates to drive the upper shifting tooth 585 to shift the ratchet surface 582a to rotate the high-position variable disk 582, thereby converting the rotation of the transposition shaft 51 into the rotation of the high-position variable disk 582, and the end faces of different heights are moved to the bottom end of the guide column 531 on the disk side with the position change of the transposition shaft 51, such as the bottom end of the guide column 531 on the disk side is successively rotated to the flat part 582b, the high part 582c and the high part 582c one level higher than the previous high part 582c, so that the side arm 53 on the disk side can sequentially stack three heights of battery bodies A from bottom to top;
[0044] It should be noted that the lower shifting block 584 is made of rubber. After the transposition shaft 51 drives the transfer arm 583 to move to the limit position through the shaft side branch 511, the shaft side branch 511 squeezes the lower shifting block 584 and then crosses the lower shifting block 584 to continue rotating;
[0045] As for the rotary drive structure, in this embodiment, a housing chamber is provided on the bracket 581 and a bite bead 586 is provided in the housing chamber through a top spring 587. It is known that the housing chamber can be provided by adding a shell or slotting the bracket 581. The top spring 587 provides an elastic force to drive the bite bead 586 upward, and the bottom surface of the high-position variable disk 582 is provided with a bite hole 582d engaged with the bite bead 586. The number of the bite holes 582d is equal to the sum of the number of the flat portion 582b and the high portion 582c, so that the high-position variable disk 582 can be stably in the desired position after rotation.
[0046] Moreover, the angle between the basic position and the limit position and the line connecting the rotation center of the transfer arm 583 is smaller than the angle between the bite hole 582d and the rotation center of the transfer arm 583. In the present embodiment, the total number of bite holes 582d following the horizontal portion 582b and the high portion 582c is three, and the angle is 120 degrees. Therefore, the angle between the basic position and the limit position and the line connecting the rotation center of the transfer arm 583 is smaller than 120 degrees. Moreover, in the present embodiment, the bite hole 582d is provided with a cross-position edge 582e on the side having the same rotation direction as the transposition shaft 51, and the cross-position edge 582e is provided with a downward direction on the rotation direction of the transposition shaft 51. The sliding inclined groove 582f extends from a bite hole 582d, and the bite bead is against the sliding inclined groove 582f. The horizontal height of the sliding inclined groove 582f on the side of the span edge 582e is lower than the horizontal height on the side of the next bite hole 582d. Therefore, when the side branch 511 on the axis drives the transfer arm 583 to start rotating and the transfer arm 583 crosses the span edge 582e, the bite bead 586 can apply pressure to the inclined groove surface on the sliding inclined groove 582f, so that the high-position variable disk 582 has a tendency to rotate due to the squeeze of the bite bead 586 and the top spring 587, allowing the high-position variable disk 582 to rotate better and rotate to the next required one.
[0047] When the material transfer assembly is implemented, the rotating lifting mechanism 52 drives the side arms 53 on both sides of the transposition shaft 51 to point to the conveyor belt 2 on the belt side and the bearing seat 41 on the workstation turntable 4 on the disk side, and then the rotating lifting mechanism 52 drives the transposition shaft 51 to descend, so that the transposition suction cup arm 54 on the side arm 53 on the belt side descends and adsorbs the battery body A on the conveyor belt 2. At this time, the high-position variable disk 582 on the disk side is in the flat position 582b, and then the transposition shaft 51 rises and then rotates, so that the transposition suction cup arm 54 that has taken the battery body A is transferred to the bearing seat 41, and then descends, the transposition suction cup arm 54 on the disk side releases the battery body A and the transposition suction cup arm 54 on the belt side adsorbs the new battery body A, and then the transposition shaft 51 rises and then rotates;
[0048] During the rotation, the side branches 511 on the shaft abut against the lower shifting block 584 to drive the transfer arm 583 to rotate. The transfer arm 583 drives the high-position variable disk 582 to rotate to a desired angle by abutting against the upper shifting tooth 585 and the ratchet surface 582a. At the same time, the biting bead 586 exerts pressure on the inclined groove surface on the sliding inclined groove 582f, so that the high-position variable disk 582 can rotate better. After the transposition shaft 51 drives the transfer arm 583 to move to the limit position through the side branches 511 on the shaft, the side branches 511 on the shaft squeeze the lower shifting block 584 and then cross the lower shifting block 584 to continue rotating. The lever arm 583 rebounds and returns to the basic position, and the flat portion 582b on the high-position variable disk 582 is converted to the high-position portion 582c of the next level, and then the rotating lifting mechanism 52 drives the transposition shaft 51 to descend, and the guide column 531 on the side arm 53 on the descending disk side abuts against the high-position portion 582c and stops descending, and at the same time, the battery body A is placed on the previous battery body A on the supporting seat 41, and the transposition suction cup arm 54 on the belt side normally absorbs the battery body A on the conveyor belt 2, and then continues to rotate to perform the next pick-and-place operation until the required number of battery bodies A is stacked;
[0049] Finally, the station turntable 4 can move slowly and then move to replace the supporting seat 41 at the required speed. The slow start speed will not cause the battery to shake, and then the battery is allowed to enter the film coating station 6 and the heating station 7 until unloading.
[0050] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
