[0002] In the process of producing battery covers, small raw materials need to be placed on large raw materials, and then the placed raw materials need to be transported and clamped. After clamping, heating and compression molding are required. However, when existing compression equipment operates this series of processes, it is always necessary to transfer the products to several separately placed equipment for processing, and transportation and clamping are required for each part of each process. This step-by-step clamping and transportation method seriously increases the production time limit, and also causes the products to miss the best molding conditions during the process transfer; at the same time, when heating the products, during reinstallation and transportation, the temperature of the products is extremely high. Multiple-step clamping and transportation will inevitably cause burns to personnel. At the same time, transfer clamping will also cause problems such as product bumping and clamping; moreover, ordinary fixtures can only clamp the products and cannot control the tension of the products, so the products will be uneven during compression molding. Therefore, there is an urgent need to invent and design a high-speed automatic thermoplastic single-sided battery cover production line and method to solve the above problems.

While moving, they drive the push-pull assembly 1513 installed on the fourth side rail 1512 to move downward. After the push-pull assembly 1513 moves downward, the limit buckle at its end is engaged with the vehicle 18. After the limiting is completed, the four corners of the vehicle 18 are locked by the lifting limit mechanisms at the four corners of the clamping station 21. A variety of raw materials required for the automotive battery cover are placed on the loading table of the loading mechanism 1. The first gantry manipulator 9 on the first gantry 7 slides on the first guide rail assembly 8 to clamp and transfer a variety of raw materials for the automotive battery cover to the clamping station 21 according to the specified positions and stack them on top of each other according to the specified positions. After the stacking is completed, the second cylinder 224 of the push-pull mechanism 22 on the outer sides around the clamping station 21 pulls the first slide plate 223 to move in the direction of the clamping station 21 on the ninth guide rail 222. The third cylinder 225 extends upward during the sliding process of the first slide plate 223. The pushing surface 2271 of the third cylinder 225 contacts the connecting frames at the ends of a number of telescopic mechanisms 182 on each side wall of the vehicle 18 to push the telescopic mechanisms 182 and the clamping jaws 183 thereon to move in the direction of the clamping station 21. When the clamping jaws 183 are about to approach the raw materials, the drive mechanism drives the clamping jaws 183 to open. When the clamping jaws 183 advance to the edge of the raw materials, the second cylinder 224 stops working, and the clamping jaws 183 clamp the raw materials under the driving force of the drive mechanism. After clamping, the third cylinder 225 contracts downward, and the second cylinder 224 moves in the direction closer to the clamping station 21. When it reaches the inner side of the connecting frames at the ends of a number of telescopic mechanisms 182 on each side wall of the vehicle 18, the third cylinder 225 extends upward. The reverse surface 2261 on the push-pull plate 227 of the third cylinder 225 contacts the inner side surfaces of the connecting frames at the ends of a number of telescopic mechanisms 182, and the second cylinder 224 moves in the direction away from the clamping station 21 to tighten the raw materials. After tightening, the second cylinder 224 stops working, and the third cylinder 225 contracts downward to complete the clamping of the raw materials;

[0057] After the clamping is completed, the fourth side rail 1512 rises upward under the drive of the first lifting mechanism 10. When it rises to be flush with the sixth guide rail assembly and can be docked, the push-pull assembly 1513 pushes the carrier 18 onto the sixth guide rail assembly. When the push-pull assembly 1513 reaches the maximum limit of the fourth side rail 1512, the push-pull assembly 1513 stops moving. At the same time, the first lifting mechanism 10 drives the fourth side rail 1512 to slide upward on the first slide rail assembly 157, so that the limit buckle at the end of the push-pull assembly 1513 engages with the carrier 18. The carrier 18 falls onto the guide rail of the sixth guide rail assembly. The lifting and pushing mechanism outside the inlet of the tunnel heating device 3 pushes the part of the carrier 18 exposed outside the tunnel into the tunnel, so that the carrier 18 can be completely located inside the tunnel. The heating plate in the heating chamber of the tunnel heating device 3 heats the raw materials in the tunnel. At the same time, the second motor 191 of each heat dissipation mechanism 19 drives the heat dissipation fans on the corresponding several sprocket shafts to start, so as to dissipate heat from the heating plate and balance the temperature inside the tunnel of the tunnel heating device 3;

[0058] After the heating is completed, the motor on the sixth guide rail assembly drives the carrier 18 to move, so as to drive the carrier 18 to move onto the seventh guide rail assembly 154 on both sides of the mold of the compression molding device 4. The second lifting mechanism 156 drives the moving block 1552 on the second slide rail assembly 155 to move downward. The seventh side rail 1541 of the seventh guide rail assembly 154 simultaneously moves downward on the second vertical rail 1551 as the moving block 1552 moves. The electric slider 1542 drives the carrier 18 to move downward, and the clamping jaws 183 open under the control of the driving mechanism, so that the raw materials are separated from the clamping jaws 183 and fall onto the lower mold of the compression molding device 4.

[0059] The seventh side rail 1541 of the seventh guide rail assembly 154 rises. When it rises and docks with the guide rail of the fifth guide rail assembly 152, the electric slider 1542 on the seventh side rail 1541 of the seventh guide rail assembly 154 drives the empty carrier 18 to flow back onto the guide rail of the fifth guide rail assembly 152. At the same time, the first lifting mechanism 10 drives the fourth guide rail assembly 151 to move upward on the guide rail of the first slide rail assembly 157, so that when the limit buckle at the end of the push-pull assembly 1513 on the fourth side rail 1512 of the fourth guide rail assembly 151 buckles and engages with the end of the carrier 18, the push-pull assembly 1513 drives the carrier 18 to reach above the clamping station 21. When the carrier 18 needs to be used, it descends to the specified position to meet the next clamping of the carrier 18, so as to realize the rotation of the carrier 18;

[0060] Meanwhile, the compression molding device 4 compresses the raw materials into a cap shape to complete the compression molding. The second truss manipulator 16 slides on a pair of third guide rail assemblies 17 on the second truss 14 to bring the molded product in the compression molding device 4 to the working station of the shaping mechanism 5 and perform shaping treatment at the working station of the shaping mechanism 5. The processed product is then lifted by the second truss manipulator 16 to the working station of the blanking mechanism 6 to achieve blanking.

[0061] The above-disclosed is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, and of course, it cannot be used to limit the scope of the rights of the present invention. Therefore, equivalent changes made according to the claims of the present invention still fall within the scope covered by the present invention.
