[0009] In the aforementioned device for transporting lithium batteries, preferably, a slide rail is fixed on the top surface of the base plate, the push pulley has a groove, and the push pulley is tumblingly connected to the slide rail.

[0010] In the aforementioned device for lithium battery delivery, preferably, the lithium battery feeding assembly includes a main board, a crossbar, and a push-pull assembly. The crossbar is fixedly installed in the middle of the front of the vertical plate near the top. An actuating block is rotatably installed on the outer side of the end of the crossbar away from the vertical plate. The main board is rotatably installed in the middle of both ends of the actuating block via a rotating shaft. An actuating sub-plate is fixedly installed on the inner side of the main board by bolts. A connecting plate is provided in the middle of the upper surface of the actuating block. The connecting plate is rotatably connected to the push-pull assembly.

[0011] In the aforementioned device for lithium battery delivery, preferably, the two main actuation boards are of the same specification, the two main actuation boards are arranged in parallel, and the actuation sub-plate on the inner side of the main actuation board is provided with a plurality of bolt holes.

[0022] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. Examples of these embodiments are shown in the accompanying drawings, wherein the same or similar reference numerals denote the same or similar elements or elements having the same or similar functions throughout. The embodiments described below with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary and are only used to explain the present invention, and should not be construed as limiting the present invention.

[0023] Embodiments of the present invention: such as Figures 1-5 As shown, a device for conveying lithium batteries includes a base plate 1, two support plates 4 are fixedly mounted on the right end of the top surface of the base plate 1, the right end of a support frame 2 is rotatably mounted between the two support plates 4 via a rotating shaft, a support frame angle adjustment assembly is provided in the middle of the top surface of the base plate 1, a conveyor belt 13 is provided on the support frame 2, a vertical plate 9 is fixedly mounted on the right end of one side of the base plate 1, and a lithium battery feeding assembly is provided on the vertical plate 9.

[0024] The support frame angle adjustment assembly is used to adjust the angle of the support frame 2 to prevent the lithium batteries on the conveyor belt surface from remaining stationary; the lithium battery feeding assembly is used to alternately block the lithium batteries, so that the lithium batteries are conveyed at equal intervals and to prevent the lithium batteries from accumulating.

[0025] Specifically, a rotating shaft 6 is fixedly installed on the rotating shaft of the wheel at one end of the conveyor belt 13, and a driven pulley 24 is fixedly installed at the end of the rotating shaft 6. A motor 3 is installed at the bottom of the support frame 2 through a mounting seat, and a driving pulley 5 is fixedly installed on the output shaft of the motor 3. The driving pulley 5 is connected to the driven pulley 24 through a belt 25.

[0026] When the motor 3 is working, it drives the driven pulley 24 to rotate through the active pulley 5 and the belt 25. The driven pulley 24 rotates through the rotating shaft 6, and the rotating wheel moves with the conveyor belt 13, thereby realizing the transportation of lithium batteries.

[0027] Preferably, the support frame 2 has power slots on both sides of the conveyor belt 13, and multiple identical pulley balls 16 are rotatably arranged in the two power slots. The rotating shaft 6 passes through one of the pulley balls 16. The diameter of the rotating shaft 6 is smaller than the diameter of the mounting hole of the pulley ball 16, and the highest point of the pulley ball 16 is flush with the highest point of the conveyor belt 13.

[0028] Both the pulley ball 16 and the conveyor belt 13 are located below the lithium battery. The conveyor belt 13 drives the lithium battery to move. When the lithium battery encounters resistance and cannot continue to move, it can slide on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 13 under the action of the pulley ball 16 on both sides, so as to avoid the lithium battery from being worn due to resistance and ensure the integrity of the lithium battery.

[0029] Furthermore, the support frame angle adjustment assembly includes a push plate 14, a second electric telescopic rod 22, and a vertical strip 23. The vertical strip 23 is fixed to the middle of the upper surface of the base plate 1. The tail end of the second electric telescopic rod 22 is rotatably connected to the vertical strip 23, and the telescopic end of the second electric telescopic rod 22 is rotatably connected to the middle of the push plate 14. The upper end of the push plate 14 is rotatably connected to the bottom surface of the left end of the support frame 2, and a push pulley 21 is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the push plate 14. A slide rail 15 is fixed to the top surface of the base plate 1, and the push pulley 21 has a groove, with the push pulley 21 rollingly connected to the slide rail 15.

[0030] The length of the push plate 14 is fixed, while the push pulley 21 can only slide on the surface of the slide rail 15 and cannot move away from the surface of the slide rail 15. Under the action of the push plate 14, the support frame 2 above can be smoothly adjusted in angle.

[0031] Furthermore, the lithium battery feeding assembly includes a main board 7, a crossbar 18, and a push-pull assembly. A crossbar 18 is fixedly installed in the center of the front of the vertical plate 9 near the top. A toggle block 17 is rotatably mounted on the outer side of the end of the crossbar 18 away from the vertical plate 9. The main board 7 is rotatably mounted on the center of both ends of the toggle block 17 via a pivot. A secondary toggle plate 20 is fixedly installed on the inner side of the main board 7 by bolts. A connecting plate is located in the center of the upper surface of the toggle block 17, and the connecting plate is rotatably connected to the push-pull assembly. The two main boards 7 are of the same specification and are arranged parallel to each other. Multiple bolt holes are provided on the secondary toggle plate 20 inside the main board 7.

[0032] The push-pull assembly includes a rotating frame 8, a first electric telescopic rod 11, and a vertical frame 12. The bottom of the vertical frame 12 is fixedly mounted on one side of the base plate 1. The telescopic end of the first electric telescopic rod 11 is rotatably connected to the connecting plate on the actuating block 17 via the rotating frame 8, and the other end of the first electric telescopic rod 11 is rotatably connected to the vertical frame 12. Limiting plates 19 are provided at both the upper and lower ends of the inner side of the actuating main plate 7, and two limiting rods 10 are fixedly mounted on the vertical plate 9. The actuating main plate 7 is movably mounted on the limiting rods 10 via the limiting plates 19. The limiting rods 10 are U-shaped rods with their openings facing the side.

[0033] When the first electric telescopic rod 11 is telescopic, it drives the rotating frame 8 to move. The actuating block 17 at the bottom of the rotating frame 8 is restricted by the crossbar 18. The actuating block 17 can only swing in an arc around the center of the crossbar 18. When the actuating block 17 swings, it drives the two actuating main boards 7 on both sides of the bottom to move up and down in sequence, so that only one lithium battery can be delivered when passing through the actuating main board 7, which plays the role of limiting the flow of lithium batteries.

[0034] The working principle of this invention is as follows: When lithium batteries need to be transported, motor 3 is started, and the output shaft of motor 3 drives the drive pulley 5 to rotate. The drive pulley 5 drives the driven pulley 24 to rotate via belt 25. The driven pulley 24 drives the rotating wheel to rotate via rotating shaft 6. The rotating wheel drives the conveyor belt 13 to move, so that a stable horizontal conveying force is formed on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 13. At this time, the lithium battery is placed on the upper surface of the conveyor belt 13, and the lithium battery moves to the right end of the equipment with the conveyor belt 13.

[0035] When the lithium battery moves on the conveyor belt 13, if the lithium battery stops temporarily due to local resistance, the lower surface of the lithium battery contacts the pulley ball 16. At this time, the conveyor belt 13 continues to rotate, and the pulley ball 16 rotates with the relative movement of the lithium battery and the conveyor belt 13, converting the sliding friction between the lithium battery and the conveyor belt 13 into rolling friction, greatly reducing the wear on the surface of the lithium battery and ensuring the integrity of the lithium battery.

[0036] When the lithium battery approaches the lithium battery feeding assembly, the first electric telescopic rod 11 starts and performs telescopic movement, pushing the rotating frame 8 to rotate upward around the connection point with the actuating block 17, causing the actuating block 17 to swing clockwise in an arc with the crossbar 18 as the center. When the first electric telescopic rod 11 retracts, it pulls the rotating frame 8 to rotate downward, causing the actuating block 17 to swing counterclockwise in an arc with the crossbar 18 as the center.

[0037] When the actuating block 17 swings, the rotating rods at both ends drive the two actuating main boards 7 to produce staggered lifting and lowering movements. When the actuating block 17 swings clockwise, the left actuating main board 7 moves upward along the limit rod 10 (away from the conveyor belt 13), and the right actuating main board 7 moves downward along the limit rod 10 (close to the conveyor belt 13). At this time, the left channel opens, and a single lithium battery enters the subsequent process through the lower part of the left actuating main board 7. When the actuating block 17 swings counterclockwise, the right actuating main board 7 moves upward, and the left actuating main board 7 moves downward. The right channel opens, and the next lithium battery is conveyed through the lower part of the right actuating main board 7. Through the periodic extension and retraction of the first electric telescopic rod 11, the two actuating main boards 7 alternately lift and lower, realizing the "one-by-one release" of lithium batteries and avoiding blockage caused by multiple lithium batteries entering the subsequent process at the same time. In addition, the actuating sub-plate 20 inside the actuating main board 7 is provided with multiple bolt holes. By adjusting the connection position between the bolt holes and the actuating main board 7, the distance between the two actuating main boards 7 can be changed to adapt to different specifications of lithium batteries.

[0038] When the angle needs to be adjusted, the second electric telescopic rod 22 is activated. When the second electric telescopic rod 22 extends, it pushes the push plate 14 to move away from the vertical plate 23, and pushes the pulley 21 to slide synchronously along the slide rail 15. The other end of the push plate 14 (rotatably connected to the middle of the bottom end of the support frame 2) is lifted upward. When the second electric telescopic rod 22 retracts, it pulls the push plate 14 to move towards the vertical plate 23, pushes the pulley 21 to slide in the opposite direction, and the other end of the push plate 14 falls downward. After adjusting the tilt angle of the conveyor belt 13, it adapts to the height difference requirements between different processes, avoiding the problem of lithium batteries accumulating due to stillness during horizontal transportation.

[0039] The above description, based on the embodiments shown in the figures, details the structure, features, and effects of the present invention. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention, but the present invention is not limited to the scope of implementation shown in the figures. Any changes made in accordance with the concept of the present invention, or equivalent embodiments modified to have equivalent changes, that do not exceed the spirit covered by the specification and figures, should be within the protection scope of the present invention.
