[0016] The present invention provides a welding mechanism for positive and negative collector plates of cylindrical lithium batteries. It has the following beneficial effects:

In addition, when the L-shaped plate moves backward, the roller on the connecting rod supports the L-shaped plate, allowing the L-shaped plate to move backward stably, reducing the jitter generated when the L-shaped plate moves, thereby preventing the jitter in the welding mechanism from causing poor equipment operation effect during welding.

[0033] When in use, the operating table 1 supports the U-shaped plate 2, and the U-shaped plate 2 supports the ultrasonic welder 3. Since it is necessary to adjust the position of the positive and negative poles of the cylindrical lithium battery to weld the current collector plate, it is easy to cause cumbersome welding of the cylindrical lithium battery collector plate. At this time, the operating table 1 supports the base 12, and the base 12 supports the U-shaped frame 14. The cylindrical lithium battery is placed in the semi-arc block 15 on the U-shaped frame 14, and the current collector plate is placed in the groove of the semi-circular groove block 16. The driving module 9 on the operating table 1 is started, and the servo motor shaft in the driving module 9 starts to reverse. The servo motor shaft drives the round rod 7 to reverse, and the round rod 7 is reversed in the vertical ring frame 4. At the same time, the round rod 7 drives the triangular ring 8 to reverse. The triangular ring 8 is restricted by the ultrasonic welder 3, and the triangular ring 8 moves toward the middle on the spiral groove of the round rod 7.

[0034] When the U-shaped frame 14 slides backward in the slide groove of the base 12, the U-shaped frame 14 drives the slide bar 19 to move backward. At the same time, the operating table 1 supports the rectangular plate 17, the rectangular plate 17 supports the cylinder 18, and the slide bar 19 moves backward in the cylinder 18. The spring in the cylinder 18 is pulled up by the slide bar 19. When the cylindrical lithium battery is welded, the servo motor shaft in the drive module 9 starts to rotate forward and reset. Under the action of the spring force of the cylinder 18, the spring in the cylinder 18 pulls the slide bar 19 to move forward, and the slide bar 19 pulls the U-shaped frame 14 forward.

[0036] The positioning device 5 also includes a connecting rod 55, a roller 56 and a concave guide rail 57. The connecting rod 55 is fixed in the middle of the back of the two L-shaped plates 51. The roller 56 is rotatably installed at the bottom of the side where the two connecting rods 55 are close to each other. The concave guide rail 57 is fixed on both sides of the top surface of the operating table 1. The bottom end of the inner side of the concave guide rail 57 is located below the two rollers 56. When the L-shaped plate 51 moves backward, the roller 56 on the connecting rod 55 supports the L-shaped plate 51, allowing the L-shaped plate 51 to move backward stably, reducing the jitter generated when the L-shaped plate 51 moves, and avoiding the jitter in the welding mechanism during welding, which causes poor equipment operation.

[0037] An anti-deviating device 6 is provided in the middle of the top surface of the positioning device 5, and the anti-deviating device 6 includes a circular shaft 61, a pressure plate 62, a short column 63, an arc-shaped elastic strip 64, a U-shaped rod 65 and a baffle 66. The circular shaft 61 is fixed in the middle of the top surface of the two round-shaped blocks 54, the pressure plate 62 is rotatably mounted on the outer wall of the two circular shafts 61, the short column 63 is fixed on the top surface of the two round-shaped blocks 54, and a groove is provided on the side where the two short columns 63 are close to each other. The arc-shaped elastic strip 64 is embedded in the middle of the inner wall of the groove of the two short columns 63, and the two arc-shaped elastic strips 64 are away from the two short columns 63. The ends are fixed on the front of the two pressure plates 62, the U-shaped rods 65 are fixed on both sides of the back of the base 12, the baffles 66 are fixed on the front of the two U-shaped rods 65, the top surfaces of the two pressure plates 62 are in an eight-shaped shape, two short columns 63 are arranged on the front of the two pressure plates 62, the baffles 66 are located above the belt 11, and the baffles 66 are on the movement trajectory of the two pressure plates 62. The pressure plates 62 are above the cylindrical lithium batteries. The pressure plates 62 limit the cylindrical lithium batteries to the semi-arc blocks 15 to avoid the poor welding effect caused by the displacement of the cylindrical lithium-ion batteries during welding by the welding mechanism.

[0038] The anti-deviation device 6 also includes a U-shaped frame 67, an arc-shaped spring sheet 68 and a rubber block 69. The U-shaped frame 67 is fixed to the bottom surfaces of the two pressure plates 62, the arc-shaped spring sheet 68 is fixed to the inner walls of the two U-shaped frames 67, and the rubber block 69 is slidably installed on the inner walls of the two U-shaped frames 67. The two rubber blocks 69 are located below the two arc-shaped spring sheets 68. Under the elastic force of the arc-shaped spring sheets 68, the rubber block 69 rests on top of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery to prevent the welding mechanism from scratching the cylindrical lithium-ion battery casing and causing damage to the cylindrical lithium-ion battery casing when welding.

[0039] When the U-shaped frame 14 slides backward in the slide groove of the base 12, the U-shaped frame 14 drives the L-shaped plate 51 to move backward, and the L-shaped plate 51 drives the support plate 52 to move backward. At the same time, the L-shaped plate 51 drives the thin column 53 to move backward, and the thin column 53 drives the circular block 54 to move backward. In the process of the support plate 52 moving backward, the support plate 52 contacts the U-shaped plate 2, and the U-shaped plate 2 restricts the support plate 52 from continuing to move backward. At the same time, the welding head of the ultrasonic welder 3 slides into the circular block 54, so that the circular block 54 limits the welding head of the ultrasonic welder 3, so that the welding head of the ultrasonic welder 3 will not shift during welding, thereby preventing the welding head position of the ultrasonic welder 3 in the equipment from shifting, thereby avoiding the problem of poor welding effect of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery collector caused by the welding head shift in the welding mechanism.

Under the action of friction, the roller 56 rolls backward in the concave guide rail 57, and the concave guide rail 57 limits the roller 56, so that when the L-shaped plate 51 moves backward, the roller 56 on the connecting rod 55 supports the L-shaped plate 51, allowing the L-shaped plate 51 to move backward stably, reducing the jitter generated when the L-shaped plate 51 moves, thereby avoiding the problem of poor equipment operation caused by jitter in the welding mechanism during welding.

[0041] When the thin column 53 drives the circular block 54 to move backward, the circular block 54 drives the circular shaft 61 to move backward, the circular shaft 61 drives the pressure plate 62 to move backward, the circular block 54 drives the short column 63 to move backward, and the short column 63 drives the arc spring strip 64 to move backward. At the same time, the base 12 supports the U-shaped rod 65, and the U-shaped rod 65 supports the baffle 66. In the process of the pressure plate 62 moving backward, the pressure plate 62 contacts the baffle 66. Under the action of the extrusion force, the pressure plate 62 rotates forward on the circular shaft 61, and the arc spring strip 64 on the pressure plate 62 is deformed, so that when the equipment is welding, the pressure plate 62 is above the cylindrical lithium battery. The pressure plate 62 restricts the cylindrical lithium battery to the semi-arc block 15 to prevent the cylindrical lithium battery in the equipment from shifting during welding, thereby avoiding the problem of poor welding effect caused by the position shift of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery when the welding mechanism is welding.

[0042] When the pressing plate 62 rotates forward on the circular shaft 61, the pressing plate 62 drives the U-shaped frame 67 to rotate forward, the U-shaped frame 67 drives the arc spring sheet 68 to rotate, and the U-shaped frame 67 drives the rubber block 69 to rotate forward, so that the rubber block 69 contacts the cylindrical lithium-ion battery in the semi-arc block 15 during the forward rotation. Under the elastic force of the arc spring sheet 68, the rubber block 69 is against the top of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery to prevent the equipment parts from scratching the cylindrical lithium-ion battery shell when the cylindrical lithium-ion battery is limited, thereby avoiding the problem of the cylindrical lithium-ion battery shell being damaged by the equipment parts when the welding mechanism is welding.

[0043] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes according to the technical scheme and inventive concept of the present invention within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
