Description

In addition, under the drive of the first driver 12 and the second driver 16, after the driven seal assembly 23 and the active seal assembly 33 are docked, the driven seal assembly 23 and the active seal assembly 33 can be connected, so that the electrolyte can be poured into the ton barrel 22 from the active seal assembly 33 and the driven seal assembly 23. Compared with related technologies, the electrolyte and transportation channel are sealed throughout the entire process, which greatly reduces the contamination of the electrolyte and effectively ensures the purity of the electrolyte.

[0028] Optionally, the first drive 12 is configured as a roller guide.

[0029] Optionally, the second driver 16 is configured as a hydraulic cylinder.

[0030] In one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figures 1 to 10 The driven sealing assembly 23 includes a driven docking cylinder 231, a plurality of driven mounting cylinders 232, a plurality of driven mounting plates 233 and a plurality of driven seals 234. The driven docking cylinder 231 is installed at the filling port of the ton barrel 22 and is axially through-arranged. The plurality of driven mounting cylinders 232 are all connected to the outer peripheral side of the driven docking cylinder 231 and are all connected to the driven docking cylinder 231. The plurality of driven mounting plates 233 are respectively and detachably installed on one end of the plurality of driven mounting cylinders 232 away from the driven docking cylinder 231. The plurality of driven seals 234 are respectively installed in the plurality of driven mounting cylinders 232 and are configured to seal the driven docking cylinder 231 after moving toward each other along the radial direction of the driven docking cylinder 231.

[0031] The active sealing assembly 33 includes an active docking cylinder 331, a plurality of active mounting cylinders 332, a plurality of active mounting plates 333, a plurality of active sealing members 334, a first connecting cylinder 335, a second connecting cylinder 336, a third driver 337 and an internal filling member 338. The active docking cylinder 331 is axially through-arranged, the plurality of active mounting cylinders 332 are all connected to the outer peripheral side of the active docking cylinder 331, and are all in communication with the active docking cylinder 331, the plurality of active mounting plates 333 are respectively detachably mounted on one end of the plurality of active mounting cylinders 332 away from the active docking cylinder 331, the plurality of active sealing members 334 are respectively mounted in the plurality of active mounting cylinders 332, and are configured to be able to move radially relative to the active docking cylinder 331. After moving, the active docking cylinder 331 is sealed, and is arranged one by one with multiple driven seals 234, and is also configured to be able to drive multiple driven seals 234 to unfold in the back direction. The first connecting cylinder 335 is installed at the end of the active docking cylinder 331 away from the driven docking cylinder 231, the second connecting cylinder 336 is installed between the switch valve 32 and the first connecting cylinder 335, the third driver 337 is installed on the outer peripheral side of the second connecting cylinder 336, the internal filling part 338 is installed at the output end of the third driver 337, and is located in the first connecting cylinder 335 and the second connecting cylinder 336, and moves along the second direction under the drive of the third driver 337, and is also configured to be able to drive multiple active seals 334 to unfold in the back direction.

[0032] It should be noted that the axial direction above and below refers to the bidirectional direction of the central axis defined by the structures of the driven docking cylinder 231 and the active docking cylinder 331. The radial direction above and below refers to the bidirectional direction perpendicular to the central axis defined by the structures of the driven docking cylinder 231 and the active docking cylinder 331.

[0033] It should be noted that in this embodiment, the number of driven mounting tubes 232 is set to four as an example. Of course, in other embodiments, according to actual application requirements, the number of driven mounting tubes 232 can also be set to two, three, five, etc. Among them, the number of driven mounting plates 233, the number of driven seals 234, the number of active mounting tubes 332, the number of active mounting plates 333, and the number of active seals 334 are all consistent with the number of driven mounting tubes 232.

[0034] With such arrangement, after the multiple driven seals 234 gather toward each other in the radial direction, they can seal the driven docking tube 231 to prevent impurities in the external environment from entering the ton barrel 22 through the driven docking tube 231 .

[0035] After the multiple active sealing members 334 gather together in the radial direction, they can seal the active docking tube 331 to prevent impurities in the external environment from entering the first connecting tube 335 and the second connecting tube 336 through the active docking tube 331 .

[0036] Driven by the first driver 12 and the second driver 16, after the driven docking cylinder 231 and the active docking cylinder 331 are docked, through the third driver 337 and the internal filling part 338, the internal filling part 338 moves toward the ton barrel 22 along the second direction, so that the multiple active seals 334 are deployed backwards, and the multiple active seals 334 drive the multiple driven seals 234 to deploy backwards, so that the internal filling part 338 can extend into the driven docking cylinder 231. Under the action of the driven docking cylinder 231 and the active docking cylinder 331, the internal filling part 338 can be separated from the external environment, so that the electrolyte can be poured into the ton barrel 22 in a sealed state, effectively ensuring the purity of the electrolyte.

[0037] Under the action of the first connecting cylinder 335 and the second connecting cylinder 336 , the switch valve 32 and the active docking cylinder 331 can be connected, and a movable space can be provided for the internal filling member 338 to move in the second direction.

[0038] The driven seal 234 can be guided by the driven installation cylinder 232, which helps to improve the movement stability of the driven seal 234 in the radial direction of the driven docking cylinder 231 and prevent the driven seal 234 from getting stuck. The active installation cylinder 332 can guide the active seal 334, which helps to improve the movement stability of the active seal 334 in the radial direction of the active docking cylinder 331 and prevent the active seal 334 from getting stuck.

[0039] The driven mounting plate 233 can seal the driven mounting cylinder 232 to prevent impurities in the external environment from entering the driven docking cylinder 231 through the driven mounting cylinder 232. The active mounting cylinder 332 can seal the active mounting cylinder 332 to prevent impurities in the external environment from entering the active docking cylinder 331 through the active mounting cylinder 332.

[0040] In one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figures 1 to 10 The driven seal 234 includes a driven seal block 2341 and a clamping groove 2342 . The driven seal block 2341 is movably installed in the driven installation cylinder 232 , and the clamping groove 2342 is opened in the driven seal block 2341 .

[0041] The active sealing component 334 includes an active sealing block 3341, a guide surface 3342 and a clamping rod 3343. The active sealing block 3341 is movably installed in the active installation cylinder 332. The guide surface 3342 is opened in the active sealing block 3341 and is configured to guide the active sealing block 3341 to move radially along the active docking cylinder 331 through the internal filling piece 338. The clamping rod 3343 is connected to the active sealing block 3341 and is configured to be clamped in the clamping groove 2342 after the driven sealing assembly 23 and the active sealing assembly 33 are docked.

[0042] With such arrangement, when the internal filling member 338 moves toward the ton barrel 22 along the second direction, it can drive the multiple active sealing blocks 3341 to unfold backwards through the guide surface 3342. Under the action of the multiple clamping rods 3343 and the multiple clamping grooves 2342, the multiple active sealing blocks 3341 can drive the multiple driven sealing blocks 2341 to unfold backwards, so that the internal filling member 338 can extend from the active docking cylinder 331 into the driven docking cylinder 231.

[0043] In one embodiment of the present application, see Figures 1 to 10 The driven seal 234 also includes a plurality of driven rods 2343 and a plurality of driven elastic structures 2344. The plurality of driven rods 2343 are all connected to the driven seal block 2341 and are all penetrated through the driven mounting plate 233. The plurality of driven elastic structures 2344 are respectively sleeved on the plurality of driven rods 2343 and are all supported between the driven mounting plate 233 and the driven seal block 2341.

[0044] The active seal 334 also includes a plurality of active rods 3344, a plurality of active elastic structures 3345 and a guide rod 3346. The plurality of active rods 3344 are all connected to the active sealing block 3341 and are all passed through the active mounting plate 333. The plurality of active elastic structures 3345 are respectively sleeved on the plurality of active rods 3344 and are all supported between the active mounting plate 333 and the active sealing block 3341. The guide rod 3346 is connected to the clamping rod 3343 and is passed through the active docking tube 331.

[0045] Specifically, in the related art, after the electrolyte is filled, part of the electrolyte remains on the inner wall of the pipe, and there is a risk of falling, which can easily cause damage to the instrument or even fall onto the body surface of the staff, posing a major safety hazard.

[0046] With such arrangement, after the filling is completed, the third driver 337 drives the internal filling part 338 to retract into the first connecting cylinder 335, and under the action of the multiple driven elastic structures 2344, the multiple driven sealing blocks 2341 can automatically reset and reseal the driven docking cylinder 231, and under the action of the multiple active elastic structures 3345, the multiple active sealing blocks 3341 can automatically reset and reseal the active docking cylinder 331, which has a high degree of automation and helps to improve the ease of use of the device.

[0047] Through multiple driven rods 2343, multiple driven elastic structures 2344 can be limited, so that multiple driven elastic structures 2344 can only expand and contract along the radial direction of the driven docking cylinder 231, avoiding the situation where the driven elastic structure 2344 is loosened between the driven sealing block 2341 and the driven mounting plate 233, resulting in failure of the driven elastic structure 2344. Through multiple active rods 3344, multiple active elastic structures 3345 can be limited, so that multiple active elastic structures 3345 can only expand and contract along the radial direction of the active docking cylinder 331, avoiding the situation where the active elastic structure 3345 is loosened between the active sealing block 3341 and the active mounting plate 333, resulting in failure of the active elastic structure 3345. In addition, the plurality of driven rods 2343 can guide the driven sealing block 2341 with the cooperation of the driven mounting plate 233, which helps to improve the movement stability of the driven sealing block 2341 in the driven mounting cylinder 232 and prevent the driven sealing block 2341 from getting stuck in the driven mounting cylinder 232. The plurality of active rods 3344 can guide the active sealing block 3341 with the cooperation of the active mounting plate 333, which helps to improve the movement stability of the active sealing block 3341 in the active mounting cylinder 332 and prevent the active sealing block 3341 from getting stuck in the active mounting cylinder 332.

[0048] After filling, multiple active sealing blocks 3341 gather towards each other. Compared with related technologies, this can prevent the electrolyte from dripping from the active docking tube 331 to the body surface of the staff or the surface of the instrument, and has high safety performance.

[0049] Optionally, both the driven elastic structure 2344 and the active elastic structure 3345 are configured as springs.

[0050] In one embodiment of the present application, see Figures 1 to 10 The driven seal assembly 23 also includes a plurality of driven linear bearings 2345, which are all mounted on the side of the driven mounting plate 233 facing away from the driven mounting cylinder 232, and are respectively sleeved on the outer circumference of the plurality of driven rods 2343, and are arranged one-to-one with the plurality of driven rods 2343.

[0051] The active sealing assembly 33 also includes multiple active linear bearings 3347, which are all installed on the side of the active mounting plate 333 facing away from the active mounting cylinder 332, and are respectively sleeved on the outer circumference of the multiple active rods 3344, and the multiple active rods 3344 are arranged one by one.

[0052] With such arrangement, under the action of the multiple driven linear bearings 2345, the multiple driven rods 2343 can be guided, which helps to improve the movement stability of the multiple driven rods 2343, thereby helping to improve the movement stability of the driven sealing block 2341. Under the action of the multiple active linear bearings 3347, the multiple active rods 3344 can be guided, which helps to improve the movement stability of the multiple active rods 3344, thereby helping to improve the movement stability of the active sealing block 3341.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figures 1 to 10 The internal filling component 338 includes a filling tube 3381, a sealing tube 3382, a plurality of sealing rings 3383, a connecting frame 3384 and a connecting rod 3385. The filling tube 3381 is arranged in the first connecting tube 335. The sealing tube 3382 is connected to one end of the filling tube 3381 close to the third driver 337 and is arranged in the first connecting tube 335. The plurality of sealing rings 3383 are all installed on the outer peripheral side of the sealing tube 3382. The connecting frame 3384 is installed at one end of the sealing tube 3382 away from the filling tube 3381. The connecting rod 3385 is installed between the connecting frame 3384 and the third driver 337.

[0054] With such arrangement, under the action of the sealing tube 3382 and multiple sealing rings 3383, the gap between the filling tube 3381 and the first connecting tube 335 can be sealed to prevent the electrolyte from directly overflowing from the gap between the filling tube 3381 and the first connecting tube 335 into the active docking tube 331 and causing the electrolyte to leak into the external environment, and the sealing effect is good.

[0055] Under the action of the connecting frame 3384 and the connecting rod 3385, the third driver 337 drives the filling tube 3381 to move along the second direction. In addition, through the connecting frame 3384, while realizing the transmission, the electrolyte can be avoided, so that the electrolyte can enter the filling tube 3381.

[0056] Optionally, the third driver 337 is configured as a cylinder.

[0057] In one embodiment of the present application, see Figures 1 to 10 The active sealing assembly 33 also includes a guide frame 339 , which is connected to the inner wall of the first connecting tube 335 and is sleeved on the outer peripheral side of the filling tube 3381 .

[0058] With such arrangement, when the third driver 337 drives the filling tube 3381 to move along the second direction, the filling tube 3381 can be guided by the guide frame 339, which helps to improve the movement stability of the filling tube 3381 in the second direction.

[0059] In one embodiment of the present application, see Figures 1 to 10 The accommodating mechanism 2 further includes a first positioning groove 24 and a second positioning groove 25 . The first positioning groove 24 and the second positioning groove 25 are both formed on the barrel frame 21 and are cross-arranged.

[0060] The placement assembly 15 includes a placement plate 151, a first positioning strip 152 and a second positioning strip 153. The placement plate 151 is installed on the mounting plate 13. The first positioning strip 152 is installed on the placement plate 151 and is clamped in the first positioning groove 24. The second positioning strip 153 is installed on the placement plate 151 and is clamped in the second positioning groove 25.

[0061] With such a configuration, the barrel rack 21 can be positioned under the action of the first positioning groove 24, the second positioning groove 25, the first positioning strip 152 and the second positioning strip 153, and the placement position of the barrel rack 21 can be unified when the barrel rack 21 is placed. When the driven docking tube 231 is docked to the active docking tube 331, it is convenient for multiple clamping rods 3343 to be accurately clamped into multiple clamping grooves 2342, avoiding the situation where the clamping rods 3343 cannot be clamped into the clamping grooves 2342. In addition, under the action of the first positioning groove 24, the second positioning groove 25, the first positioning strip 152 and the second positioning strip 153, it is helpful to improve the structural stability between the ton barrel 22 and the placement plate 151, so that the ton barrel 22 is not easy to shake during the movement.

[0062] In one embodiment of the present application, please refer to Figures 1 to 10 The placement assembly 15 further includes a plurality of slide bars 154 , which are all connected to the placement plate 151 and are all disposed through the mounting plate 13 .

[0063] With such arrangement, when the second driver 16 drives the placement plate 151 to move along the second direction, the plurality of sliding rods 154 help to improve the movement stability of the placement plate 151 in the second direction, thereby helping to improve the movement stability of the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 in the second direction, and the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 shake during the movement.

[0064] In one embodiment of the present application, see Figures 1 to 10 The transport mechanism 1, the containing mechanism 2 and the filling mechanism 3 are all provided in plurality.

[0065] The automated electrolyte filling device further comprises a delivery pipe 4 , which is connected to one end of the plurality of liquid inlet pipes 31 away from the switch valve 32 and communicates with the liquid inlet pipes 31 .

[0066] Specifically, during the actual filling process, when one of the ton barrels 22 is being filled, the other ton barrel 22 needs to wait until the filling is completed before the electrolyte can be filled, resulting in low filling efficiency.

[0067] In this way, the transport mechanism 1, the containing mechanism 2 and the filling mechanism 3 are all provided in plurality. With the cooperation of the delivery pipe 4, the electrolyte can be poured into a plurality of ton barrels 22 at the same time, which greatly improves the filling efficiency.

[0068] The working principle of the automatic electrolyte filling device provided by the present application is as follows: first, the staff transports the barrel rack 21 together with the ton barrel 22 to the position of the base 11 by a forklift, and then aligns the first positioning groove 24 and the second positioning groove 25 on the barrel rack 21 with the first positioning bar 152 and the second positioning bar 153 on the placement plate 151. After the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 are placed on the placement plate 151, the first driver 12 drives the placement plate 151, the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 to move along the first direction through the mounting plate 13 until the placement plate 151, the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 move to the top of the second driver 16. The output end of the second driver 16 lifts the placement plate 151, the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 through the avoidance hole 14, and the driven seal assembly 23 follows the ton barrel 22 to move along the second direction toward the active seal assembly 33 until the clamping rod 3343 on the active seal block 3341 is clamped in the clamping groove 2342 of the driven seal block 2341. The third driver 337 drives the sealing cylinder 3382 and the filling tube 3381 to move toward the active sealing block 3341 along the second direction through the connecting rod 3385 and the connecting frame 3384, until the end of the filling tube 3381 close to the active sealing block 3341 contacts the guide surface 3342 on the active sealing block 3341. Under the action of the guide surface 3342, the filling tube 3381 simultaneously drives multiple active sealing blocks 3341 to expand in the radial direction in the opposite direction. At the same time, under the action of multiple clamping rods 3343, multiple driven sealing blocks 2341 are all expanded in the radial direction in the opposite direction. The third driver 337 drives the filling tube 3381 to move toward the ton barrel 22 along the second direction until the filling tube 3381 extends into the driven docking cylinder 231. Start the switch valve 32, and the electrolyte in the liquid inlet pipe 31 is transported to the ton barrel 22 through the switch valve 32, the second connecting cylinder 336, the first connecting cylinder 335 and the filling tube 3381 in sequence until the electrolyte is filled, and then close the switch valve 32. The third driver 337 drives the filling tube 3381 to move in the second direction away from the ton barrel 22 until the filling tube 3381 moves to the side of the multiple active sealing blocks 3341 away from the driven sealing blocks 2341. Under the action of the multiple driven elastic structures 2344, the multiple driven sealing blocks 2341 gather radially toward each other. Under the action of the multiple active elastic structures 3345, the multiple active sealing blocks 3341 gather radially toward each other. The second driver 16 drives the placement plate 151, the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 to move in the second direction away from the active sealing assembly 33, so that the driven sealing assembly 23 and the active sealing assembly 33 are separated. The first driver 12 drives the placement plate 151 , the barrel rack 21 and the ton barrel 22 to move to the unloading station on the base 11 .

[0069] One or more embodiments of the present application are intended to cover all such substitutions, modifications and variations that fall within the broad scope of the present application. Therefore, any omissions, modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principles of one or more embodiments of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
