[0027] As shown in the drawings, Figure 2 With Figure 3 As shown, the pipeline 2 is fixedly connected with the baffle 7, the baffle 7 is sealingly and slidably connected with the discharging frame 3, and in the process of moving back and forth of the discharging frame 3, the baffle 7 shields the connecting hole 301 to reduce the probability of glue leakage.

[0028] The specific working principle is as follows:

[0029] When the operator needs to use the device to edge seal the battery, the operator starts the external mechanical hand through the control terminal, the external mechanical hand drives the rotating frame 1 to move and rotate, so that the device moves, when the discharging frame 3 moves to the upper side of the lower shell edge of the battery, the operator starts the external glue supply equipment through the control terminal, the external glue supply equipment supplies the edge sealing glue into the pipeline 2, the edge sealing glue enters the discharging frame 3 through the connecting hole 301, and then the edge sealing glue is discharged to the edge of the lower shell of the battery through the discharging frame 3.

[0031] In the process of moving right of the discharging frame 3, the discharging frame 3 moves back and forth, so that the edge sealing glue discharged by the discharging frame 3 is in a wave shape, thereby reducing the energy consumption and mechanical wear of the external mechanical hand under the premise of infrequent driving of the external mechanical hand.

[0032] When the battery lower shell is glued, the operator closes the external manipulator, the external glue supply equipment and the electromagnetic slide rail of the fixing frame 4 through the control terminal, and then covers the battery upper shell on the lower shell to heat seal the battery.

[0033] Embodiment 2

[0034] After the edge sealing equipment completes the edge sealing glue coating, the battery upper and lower shells are pressed. In the process of pressing the upper and lower shells, the edge sealing glue will overflow to both sides due to the pressure. The overflowed glue not only affects the appearance of the battery shell, but also causes the edge sealing glue to penetrate into the inside of the battery shell, pollutes or damages the electronic elements inside the battery shell, and further affects the normal use of the battery.

[0035] Based on the above embodiment 1, as shown in Figure 1 and Figure 4 , the pipeline 2 is fixedly connected with the connecting frame 8, the connecting frame 8 is fixedly connected with the first flexible glue strip roll 9, the first flexible glue strip roll 9 is wound with flexible glue strips, the connecting frame 8 is fixedly connected with the first pressing frame 10, and the first pressing frame 10 is used to press the flexible glue strips of the first flexible glue strip roll 9, so that the flexible glue strips of the first flexible glue strip roll 9 are adhered to the edge sealing position of the battery.

The material discharging frame 3 is located between the first pressing frame 10 and the second pressing frame 13.

[0037] As shown in Figure 5 and Figure 6 , the knob 12 is rotationally connected with the sliding frame 14, the pipeline 2 is provided with the adjusting valve 15, so as to Figure 1 The right view is the reference direction of the rotation direction. When the valve of the adjusting valve 15 is counterclockwise rotated, the flow area in the adjusting valve 15 increases. When the valve of the adjusting valve 15 is clockwise rotated, the flow area in the adjusting valve 15 decreases. The valve of the adjusting valve 15 and the sliding frame 14 are driven by the gear and rack transmission, wherein the gear is fixedly connected with the valve of the adjusting valve 15, and the rack is fixedly connected with the sliding frame 14.

[0038] The specific working principle is as follows:

[0039] Before the device is used to seal the edge of the battery, the operator adjusts the position of the knob 12 by rotating the knob 12 to move the knob 12 forward or backward (when the edge of the battery to be sealed is wide, move the knob 12 forward, and when the edge of the battery to be sealed is narrow, move the knob 12 backward), the knob 12 drives the second flexible rubber strip roll 11 to move to adjust the distance between the first flexible rubber strip roll 9 and the second flexible rubber strip roll 11, so as to adapt to the required glue coating width of the edge of the battery of different models, in the process of moving the knob 12, the knob 12 drives the adjusting valve 15 to rotate through the sliding frame 14 and the gear rack, and adjusts the flow area of the adjusting valve 15, in the process of moving the knob 12, the knob 12 drives the second pressure frame 13 to move, and adjusts the position of the second pressure frame 13, by adjusting the position of the second flexible rubber strip roll 11, the position of the second pressure frame 13 and the flow area of the adjusting valve 15, to adapt to the required glue coating width and glue coating amount of the edge of the battery of different models, so as to improve the application range of the device.

[0040] In the process of moving the rotating frame 1 to the right through the pipe 2 to drive the discharging frame 3 to move to the right, the pipe 2 drives the connecting frame 8 to move to the right, the connecting frame 8 drives the first flexible rubber strip roll 9 and the second flexible rubber strip roll 11 to move to the right, the first pressure frame 10 presses the flexible rubber strip of the first flexible rubber strip roll 9, and the second pressure frame 13 presses the flexible rubber strip of the second flexible rubber strip roll 11, and the flexible rubber strip is pasted on the edge of the lower shell of the battery, since the discharging frame 3 is located between the first pressure frame 10 and the second pressure frame 13, the edge glue discharged by the discharging frame 3 is located between the flexible rubber strip at the first pressure frame 10 and the flexible rubber strip at the second pressure frame 13, so that the two sides of the wavy edge glue are limited by the flexible rubber strip, so as to reduce the probability of the edge glue overflowing when the upper and lower shells of the battery are pressed, thereby reducing the probability of the damage of the electronic components in the battery caused by the overflow of the edge glue into the battery shell, reducing the influence of the overflow of the edge glue on the beauty of the battery shell, and improving the quality of the battery after the edge is sealed.

The breakpoint of the edge glue at the corner of the battery will cause the sealing weak point at the edge, and the accumulation of the edge glue at the corner of the battery will cause the glue to seep into the electronic components, thereby affecting the safety of the battery in use.
