Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0037] Reference Figures 1-5 An electrolytic capacitor drying device, comprising a drying box body 1, a conveying device 2, and an electrolytic capacitor body 5, wherein the conveying device 2 is provided with a plurality of storage frames 3 for storing the electrolytic capacitor body 5.

The electrolytic capacitor body 5 enters the storage frame 3 in the conveying device 2 through the feeding port 101. The drying device 102 is used for drying the electrolytic capacitor body 5. The dried electrolytic capacitor body 5 on the storage frame 3 is taken away at the discharging area 103. In this way, the whole process of drying the electrolytic capacitor body 5 is completed, and the electrolytic capacitor body 5 is dried under the action of the drying device 102 during the process.

[0040] It should be noted that the electrolytic capacitor body 5 is provided with a recess 501 and a pin 502.

[0041] In order to prevent the electrolytic capacitor body 5 from deviating due to its own gravity when entering the storage rack 3, the storage rack 3 is provided with a protruding portion 301, and the protruding portion 301 cooperates with the recess 501 in the electrolytic capacitor body 5.

[0042] In order to facilitate the control of the discharging of the electrolytic capacitor body 5, the storage rack 3 is provided with a suction unit 4, and the suction unit 4 is opened to adsorb the electrolytic capacitor body 5 entering the storage rack 3.

[0043] The electrolytic capacitor body 5 also needs to be installed with a sheath, and the sheath needs to pass through the pin 502 during installation. In order to facilitate the subsequent installation work of the sheath, the drying box body 1 is provided with a righting unit 6, and the righting unit 6 is used for adjusting the two inclined pins 502 in the electrolytic capacitor body 5 to be horizontal.

[0044] Specifically, the righting unit 6 comprises two pressing units 601, a guide frame 602 and a righting driving motor 603, the two pressing units 601 are respectively located on the upper and lower sides of the pin 502, and the pressing unit 601 is started, the pressing unit 601 comprises a first pressing plate 6011, and the two pins 502 can be pressed to be parallel to the first pressing plate 6011.

[0045] More specifically, the pressing unit 601 further comprises a second pressing plate 6012, the first pressing plate 6011 and the second pressing plate 6012 are fixedly connected through a cross bar, the lengths of the two pins 502 are different, in order to adapt to the righting work of the two pins 502, and the pin 502 is close to or far away from the electrolytic capacitor body 5, and the two positions are prone to bending, therefore, the first pressing plate 6011 and the second pressing plate 6012 are arranged, and the first pressing plate 6011 and the second pressing plate 6012 are respectively pressed at the two positions close to or far away from the electrolytic capacitor body 5, so that the two pins 502 will not be inclined during extrusion.

[0046] It should be noted that one side of the first pressing plate 6011 is connected with a lifting track 6013, the lifting track 6013 is inserted with a track block 6014, and the lifting track 6013 can be referred to as Figure 4The lifting track 6013 and the track block 6014 can only move up and down relative to each other, and the up and down here does not necessarily mean vertical up and down, and the track block 6014 itself can also be inclined at a certain angle as needed;

[0047] In order to enable the first pressing plate 6011 to have the power of moving up and down, a lifting drive gear 6015 is arranged on the track block 6014, and a drive unit is connected to the lifting drive gear 6015. The lifting drive gear 6015 is connected to a rack 6016 through gear meshing transmission. The rack 6016 is connected to the lifting track 6013. The track block 6014 is connected to the guide frame 602.

[0048] The pressing unit 601 is slidably connected to the guide frame 602. Specifically, the second pressing plate 6012 is inserted into the guide groove in the guide frame 602, and the second pressing plate 6012 and the guide groove can only move up and down relative to each other. Here, up and down also does not mean vertical up and down. The positive driving motor 603 is used to drive the second pressing plate 6012 to rotate.

[0049] The electrolytic capacitor body 5 enters the storage rack 3 and moves under the driving of the conveying device 2. After moving to the position of the positive unit 6, the drive unit is started. The drive unit drives the lifting drive gear 6015 to rotate, and in turn drives the rack 6016 connected thereto to move up and down through gear meshing transmission. The rack 6016 can drive the lifting track 6013 to move up and down during the movement. The lifting track 6013 moves downward along the track block 6014, and can extrude the pins 502 (the adsorption unit 4 is in a closed state during the extrusion process). During the extrusion process, the two pins 502 rotate in a direction parallel to the first pressing plate 6011, and finally adjust to the horizontal direction, facilitating the subsequent installation of the sheath;

The positive driving motor 603 can drive the two pressing units 601 to rotate, and in turn adjust the angle of the two pressing units 601, so as to avoid the situation that the pressing unit 601 is perpendicular to the direction of the two pins 502.

[0051] During the adjustment of the direction of the two pins 502, the electrolytic capacitor body 5 needs to be in the storage rack 3 and not be extruded out. Therefore, a pressing unit 7 is arranged inside the drying box body 1. The pressing unit 7 includes a straight plate 701 and a straight rod 702. When the positive unit 6 works, the straight plate 701 is pressed on the upper side of the electrolytic capacitor body 5 whose pin 502 needs to be adjusted.

[0054] Step one, feeding: the electrolytic capacitor body 5 is sent from the feeding port 101 to the storage rack 3 on the conveying device 2;

[0055] Step two, reaching the aligning area: the conveying device 2 drives the storage rack 3 and the electrolytic capacitor body 5 inside to move to the aligning area, at this time the pressing unit 7 is pressed on the upper side of the electrolytic capacitor body 5;
