Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of battery shell-core separation, and in particular to a battery shell-core separation device. Background Art

[0002] Lithium battery recycling requires multiple steps and links, among which battery shell-core separation refers to the disassembly and separation of the battery shell from its core. Usually, the disassembly steps of lithium batteries are to cut the three sides of the lithium battery shell in sequence. After the three sides are cut, the inner core is pushed out by the core pushing mechanism.

[0003] However, most of the cutting mechanisms used in the battery shells on the market now generally use a cutter to perform vertical cutting. Since the battery core and the battery shell are in close contact, the battery core is easily damaged by cutting with a cutter that goes straight up and down, which leads to low utilization of the battery core after recycling. At the same time, the existing battery shell core separation equipment on the market is generally flat-laying, with one cutting, two cutting, and three cutting mechanisms laid flat and connected in sequence, which leads to the overall space occupied by the equipment being large and inconvenient to use.

A rectangular groove corresponding to the separation component 2 72 is opened on the work station plate 84.

[0077] The specific usage and function of this embodiment are as follows:

[0078] When in use, the batteries to be disassembled and separated are first transported to the conveyor belt 2 in sequence through the external feeding mechanism, and then the conveyor belt 2 is started, and the conveyor belt 2 drives the batteries to the work station plate 84 connected to the conveyor belt 2, and the telescopic cylinder 91 is started, and the telescopic cylinder 91 drives the fixed frame 94 to extend until the rollers 98 on both sides contact and clamp the two sides of the battery;

[0079] Start the second motor 95, the second motor 95 drives a pulley 96 and a roller 98 to rotate. When one pulley 96 rotates, the other rollers 98 are driven to rotate synchronously through the transmission effect of the belt 97, and then the battery is transferred to the center of the station plate 84;

[0080] When the battery moves to the center of the workstation plate 84, the telescopic cylinder 91 pushes the side of the battery close to the cutting station 1 4, so that the side of the battery close to the cutting station 1 4 is suspended and separated from the workstation plate 84, and then the laser cutting mechanism 3 at the cutting station 1 4 is started, and the telescopic cylinder 1 31 pushes the telescopic cylinder 2 32, and the telescopic cylinder 2 32 pushes the cutting assembly 33 to move to the position corresponding to the suspended side of the cutting station 1 4;

[0081] The moving motor 3322 is started, and the moving motor 3322 drives the gear 3325 to rotate. The gear 3325 meshes with the rack 3324 while rotating, thereby driving the moving plate 3323 to slide on the track plate under the guidance of the guide chain 3321, and driving the laser cutting head 3328 to a position corresponding to the surface of the battery shell to be cut, and starting the laser cutting head 3328 to perform laser cutting on the battery shell. At the same time, the driving motor 3314 is started, and the driving motor 3314 drives the transmission gear to rotate. The transmission gear meshes with the rack 1 3312, thereby driving the moving frame 3315 to slide on the guide rail 3311 under the guidance of the guide chain 1 3313, thereby driving the laser cutting head 3328 to perform mobile laser cutting on one side of the battery shell;

[0082] After one side is cut, the telescopic cylinder 1 31 and the telescopic cylinder 2 32 are started again to drive the cutting assembly 33 to move to the corresponding position of the other side, and then the laser cutting head 3328 is controlled again to perform laser cutting on the other side of the outer side of the battery. When the arc-shaped connecting surface of the battery is laser cut, the rotating motor 3326 and the adjusting motor 3327 are started to drive the laser cutting head 3328 to rotate and adjust in two directions, so as to achieve the purpose of all-round adjustment of the angle of the laser cutting head 3328; and then complete the complete laser cutting of one side of the battery;

[0083] When one side of the battery shell is completely laser cut, the motor 81 is started, the motor 81 drives the rotating shaft 82 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 82 drives the connecting block 83 and the station plate 84 fixedly connected thereto to synchronously rotate 90 degrees;

[0084] When the battery reaches the cutting station 2 5, the telescopic cylinder 1 31, the telescopic cylinder 2 32, and the cutting assembly 33 are started, so that the laser cutting head 3328 performs laser cutting on the other side of the battery. While the laser cutting is being performed on the other side, the auxiliary separation member 11 is started, and the mounting plate 1101 and the telescopic cylinder 1102 drive the suction cup 3 1105 to contact and adsorb the battery shell on this side to support this side. After the cutting of this side is completed, the suction cup 3 1105 separates the battery shell on this side from the battery.

[0085] Then, the motor 1 81 is started again, and the battery that has been laser cut on both sides is driven to move to the cutting station 3 6, and then the telescopic cylinder 1 31, the telescopic cylinder 2 32, and the cutting assembly 33 are started, and then the laser cutting head 3328 is driven to laser cut the third side of the battery shell, and then the corresponding suction cup 3 1105 is attracted to the battery shell on the third side, and after the cutting is completed, the suction cup 3 1105 is driven to separate the battery shell on the third side from the battery body;

[0086] The motor 81 is started again to drive the battery cut by three sides by laser to rotate. During this rotation, the battery shells on the two sides cut by laser are put onto the corresponding external conveyor belts through the auxiliary separation members 11 on both sides. When the battery moves to the separation station 7;

[0087] Start the separation component 1 71 and the separation component 2 72, and drive the support plate 1 713 to move to the position corresponding to the side of the battery through the telescopic cylinder 3 711 and the telescopic cylinder 4 712. Then, according to the external CCD camera, the size of the battery can be known, and the telescopic cylinder 5 715 and the telescopic cylinder 6 716 are started to drive the suction cup 1 714 to move to the four corners of the battery and adsorb thereto;

[0088] The support plate 2 723 and the suction cup 2 724 are driven by the telescopic cylinder 721 and the telescopic cylinder 8 722 to move into the rectangular groove provided in the station plate 84, so that the suction cup 2 724 is adsorbed on the other side of the battery. At this time, the corresponding suction cup 3 1105 is in contact with the bottommost battery core and adsorbed, and the transplanting mechanisms 9 on both sides are separated from the battery. At the same time, the suction cup 1 714 and the suction cup 2 724 are driven to pull the two sides of the battery. Since the three sides of the battery are cut by laser, the outer shell of the battery is pulled open, and the outer shell of the battery initially cut by laser falls off under the pulling;

[0089] Then the suction cup three 1105 drives the battery core to separate, and the core is put onto the conveyor belt two 10 to be transported to the next process. At the same time, the suction cup two 724 is separated from the battery shell, and the suction cup one 714 drives the battery shell to move to another external conveyor belt, thus completing the operation of separating and disassembling the battery shell and core.
