Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

When in use, the battery shell 1 is controlled to be placed on the conveyor belt 100 for conveyance; and the second conveying rollers 102 are located above the first conveying rollers 101.

[0031] Then, under the action of the second conveying roller 102 and the first conveying roller 101, the conveyor belt 100 forms a first conveying surface 11 inclined upward along the conveying direction, a second conveying surface 13 inclined downward along the conveying direction, and a horizontal third conveying surface 12 is formed between the first conveying surface 11 and the second conveying surface 13, and the third conveying surface 12 is formed between the two second conveying rollers 102.

[0032] In order to facilitate the cleaning and drying of the battery shell 1 conveyed on the conveyor belt 100, when in use, the battery shell 1 is placed on the first conveying surface 11 with the open end facing upward. At this time, the battery shell 1 is placed with the open end facing upward. At this time, the battery shell 1 is cleaned by the battery cleaning mechanism 2 arranged above the first conveying surface 11. After cleaning, the battery shell 1 on the first conveying surface 11 is conveyed to the third conveying surface 12 via the third conveying surface 12. At this time, the battery shell 1 on the third conveying surface 12 is arranged with the open end facing downward, that is, the cleaning liquid generated by the battery cleaning mechanism 2 during the cleaning process of the battery shell 1 flows out from the open end of the battery shell 1.

[0033] At the same time, in order to facilitate the removal and drying of the cleaning liquid remaining in the battery shell 1 during use, a battery wiping mechanism 3 and a battery drying mechanism 4 are arranged above the third conveying surface 12 and in sequence along its length direction. Then, when in use, the battery wiping mechanism 3 is first used to wipe and remove the droplet-shaped cleaning liquid remaining on the inner wall of the battery shell 1, and then the battery drying mechanism 4 is used to complete complete drying to remove the cleaning liquid remaining on the inner wall of the battery shell 1 in the form of a water film.

[0034] When in use, after the battery shell 1 is cleaned by the battery cleaning mechanism 2, a large amount of cleaning liquid is stored in the battery shell 1. In order to prevent the battery shell 1 from sliding downward on the first conveying surface 11 due to the presence of the cleaning liquid and to prevent the battery shell 1 from being conveyed to the second conveying surface 13, when the cleaning liquid flows out of the battery shell 1 and flows downward along the second conveying surface 13 in large quantities, it infiltrates the outer wall of another battery shell 1 located below it; Figure 3 As shown, a plurality of partition bars 103 are arranged at equal intervals along the length direction of the conveying surface of the conveyor belt 100 , and drainage holes 104 are arranged on the conveyor belt 100 on both sides of the partition bars 103 ; the distance between two adjacent partition bars 103 is greater than the height of the battery shell 1 .
