Description

Technical Field

[0001] This invention relates to the field of lathes or turning apparatuses specifically designed for special workpieces, and more specifically to lithium battery terminal turning equipment with a transfer assembly. Background Technology

[0002] The existing CNC lathes used for lithium battery electrode posts are mainly used to clamp and position lithium battery electrode workpieces, and through the coordinated movement of the tool holder and the clamping rotation device, the electrode workpieces are cut and shaped to obtain finished lithium battery electrode posts that meet the size and precision requirements. It is the core equipment for machining and forming in the production process of lithium battery electrode posts.

[0003] However, existing CNC lathes for lithium battery terminals generally lack an integrated automatic loading and unloading mechanism. During the processing, manual operation is required to load, position, and clamp the workpieces one by one, as well as unload the finished parts after processing. On the one hand, manual operation is slow, with each loading and unloading taking several to tens of seconds, which lengthens the production cycle and cannot meet the needs of mass production. On the other hand, during mass production, operators need to frequently travel between the material pile and the processing station, repeatedly performing the actions of picking up and placing parts, which is extremely labor-intensive. Furthermore, the existing equipment's loading, processing, and unloading processes follow a strictly sequential pattern. That is, loading and processing must be completed before unloading can proceed, and unloading must be completed before the next loading can begin. There are waiting gaps between processes. For example, after a workpiece is processed, it is necessary to wait for the finished part to be manually removed before the workpiece to be processed can be placed back in. This results in idle time for the tool holder, making it impossible to fully utilize processing resources. As a result, the production cycle of a single product includes processing time and loading / unloading waiting time, making it difficult to improve overall production efficiency. Especially in mass production scenarios, the accumulated waiting time between processes will significantly reduce the output per unit time, failing to meet the efficiency requirements of large-scale production.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide lithium battery terminal turning equipment with transfer components to solve the above problems. Summary of the Invention

[0016] Technical effects and advantages of the present invention: The lithium battery terminal turning equipment with a transfer component proposed in this invention has the following advantages compared with the prior art: 1. This technical solution integrates a feeding component, a loading component, a transfer component, and an unloading component to construct an integrated automatic loading and unloading system, eliminating the reliance on manual operation. During feeding, the guiding mechanism can store the parts to be processed in batches, the pushing mechanism pushes them in an orderly manner according to the logic of pushing one piece at a time, and the feeding mechanism achieves precise positioning of the workpiece through the limit frame and the first suction cup. In addition, the dual cylinders of the loading component work together to pick up and clamp the parts, and no manual intervention is required throughout the process. During unloading, the transfer component grabs the finished parts and transfers them to the unloading component. After being adsorbed by the second suction cup, the automatic unloading is completed. This avoids the repetitive work of operators frequently going back and forth between the material pile and the processing position, significantly reducing labor intensity. It also completely solves the problem of long production cycle caused by the slow pace of manual operation and can stably adapt to the needs of mass production. 2. This technical solution utilizes the bidirectional precise movement characteristics of the cross slide table to achieve parallel unloading and loading processes. When the transfer component moves to the clamping and rotating device to pick up the finished part and transfers it to the unloading component, the loading component can be simultaneously driven by the cross slide table back to the feeding mechanism to pick up the part to be processed. There is no need to wait for the unloading to be completed before starting the loading, eliminating the waiting gap between processes, making full use of the tool holder, eliminating the need for accumulated unloading and loading waiting time, and significantly increasing the unit time capacity. This effectively solves the problem that existing equipment cannot meet the efficiency requirements of large-scale production. Attached Figure Description

[0019] The subject matter described herein will now be discussed with reference to exemplary embodiments. It should be understood that these embodiments are discussed only to enable those skilled in the art to better understand and implement the subject matter described herein, and changes may be made to the function and arrangement of the elements discussed without departing from the scope of this specification. Various processes or components may be omitted, substituted, or added as needed in the examples. Furthermore, features described in some examples may be combined in other examples.

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 8 The embodiments provided by the present invention are as follows: like Figure 1 As shown, the automatic loading and unloading device of the CNC lathe of the present invention processes the electrode workpiece 1 on the left side into the finished electrode workpiece 1 on the right side. like Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the lithium battery terminal turning equipment with a transfer component has a transfer component 3 and a loading component 4 installed on the cross slide 22 of the CNC lathe 2. Both the transfer component 3 and the loading component 4 are installed on the cross slide 22, and a tool holder 23 for cutting the electrode workpiece 1 is fixedly installed on the cross slide 22. The cross slide 22 of the CNC lathe 2 can achieve precise bidirectional movement of the X / Y axis. The cross slide 22 serves as a moving carrier to link the loading, processing, and unloading of the electrode workpiece 1. During loading, the cross slide 22 drives the loading assembly 4 to move to the corresponding position of the first suction cup 511 of the feeding mechanism to complete the gripping of the workpiece to be processed, and then drives the loading assembly 4 to move to the clamping rotation device 21 to complete the workpiece clamping; during processing, the cross slide 22 drives the tool holder 23 to move precisely along the X / Y axis, and in conjunction with the rotation action of the clamping rotation device 21, cuts the motor workpiece to be processed into shape; during unloading, the cross slide 22 drives the transfer assembly 3 to move to the clamping rotation device 21 to pick up the finished part, and at the same time can drive the loading assembly 4 to go to the feeding mechanism again to pick up the material, so as to realize the parallel unloading and loading.

[0021] Among them, such as Figure 4As shown, the transfer assembly 3 includes a first cylinder 31, a movable plate 32, and a first pneumatic finger 33. The first cylinder 31 is fixedly installed on the cross slide 22. The telescopic shaft of the first cylinder 31 is fixedly installed on one side of the movable plate 32, and the other side of the movable plate 32 is fixedly installed on the first pneumatic finger 33. A clamping mechanism 7 is fixedly installed on the first pneumatic finger 33.

[0022] After the workpiece is processed and formed, the cross slide 22 drives the transfer assembly 3 to move to the side of the clamping and rotating device 21. The first cylinder 31 drives the moving plate 32 to extend, which drives the first pneumatic finger 33 to approach the finished part. The first pneumatic finger 33 controls the clamping mechanism 7 to close and grab the finished part. The cross slide 22 drives the transfer assembly 3 to move to the corresponding position of the second suction cup 69 of the unloading assembly 6. The clamping mechanism 7 releases and transfers the finished part to the second suction cup 69.

[0023] like Figure 5 As shown, the loading assembly 4 includes a fixed platform 41, a second cylinder 42, a slide 43, and a second pneumatic finger 44. The fixed platform 41 is fixedly mounted on the cross slide 22. The tail of the second cylinder 42 is fixedly mounted on the fixed platform 41. The slide 43 is slidably mounted on the fixed platform 41. The telescopic shaft of the second cylinder 42 is fixedly mounted to the side wall of the slide 43. The second pneumatic finger 44 is fixedly mounted on the top surface of the slide 43. A clamping mechanism 7 is fixedly mounted on the second pneumatic finger 44.

[0024] The cross slide 22 moves the loading assembly 4 to the axis of the first suction cup 511 of the feeding mechanism. The feeding cylinder 58 pushes the feeding frame 59 to extend, pushing the workpiece adsorbed on the first suction cup 511 to the preset docking position. At the same time, the second cylinder 42 drives the slide 43 to slide along the fixed platform 41, driving the second pneumatic finger 44 to feed towards the workpiece. After the double cylinder pushes the workpiece into place, the second pneumatic finger 44 controls the clamping mechanism 7 to close, accurately clamping the workpiece. The cross slide 22 moves the loading assembly 4 to the clamping rotation device 21, loading the workpiece into the chuck to complete the clamping. After clamping, the loading assembly 4 can be driven by the cross slide 22 to return to the feeding mechanism to pick up the workpiece when the transfer assembly 3 unloads, realizing parallel operation.

[0025] It is worth noting that, such as Figure 6As shown, the clamping mechanism 7 includes a clamping plate 71, clamping bars 74, guide posts 75, limiting discs 76, springs 77, and sliding columns 78. The inner side of the clamping plate 71 is provided with clamping grooves 72, and a second sliding groove 73 is formed within each clamping groove 72. The clamping bars 74 are slidably installed in the second sliding grooves 73. One end of the guide post 75 is fixedly connected to the clamping bars 74, and the other end of the guide post 75 is slidably connected within the clamping plate 71. The side wall of the guide post 75 is fixedly connected to the limiting disc 76. A spring 77 is installed in the inner cavity of the clamping plate 71, and the spring 77 is sleeved on the guide post 75 and abuts against the limiting disc 76. The sliding columns 78 are fixedly connected to both sides of the clamping bars 74, and the sliding columns 78 are slidably connected within sliding holes formed in the clamping plate 71. The first pneumatic actuator... When the second pneumatic finger 44 drives the two clamping plates 71 to close, the arc-shaped clamping bar 74 first contacts the outer circle of the workpiece. As the clamping plates 71 continue to close, the guide post 75 compresses the spring 77 in the inner cavity of the clamping plate 71. The spring 77's rebound force is converted into a flexible clamping force to adapt to the slight deviation in the workpiece size. The sliding posts 78 on both sides of the clamping bar 74 slide along the sliding holes of the clamping plate 71. The guide post 75 restricts the offset direction of the clamping bar 74, ensuring that the clamping bar 74 moves smoothly along the second sliding groove 73 and avoiding workpiece clamping tilt. The limiting plate 76 limits the maximum extension stroke of the guide post 75, preventing the spring 77 from being over-compressed, protecting the workpiece from excessive pressure, avoiding pressure and scratches on the surface of the electrode workpiece 1 by rigid clamping, and protecting the appearance quality of the workpiece. Furthermore, both the clamping groove 72 and the clamping bar 74 are designed with arc-shaped surfaces. A rubber sheet is bonded to the surface of the clamping bar 74. The arc-shaped surfaces of the clamping groove 72 and the clamping bar 74 are completely fitted to the outer circle of the cylindrical workpiece, increasing the contact area, reducing local pressure, and preventing workpiece deformation. The rubber sheet increases the coefficient of friction to prevent the workpiece from slipping during the pushing of the double cylinder and the movement of the cross slide 22.

[0026] like Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the loading assembly 5 is vertically installed in the CNC lathe 2. The loading assembly 5 includes a guiding mechanism, a pushing mechanism and a feeding mechanism. The pushing mechanism is installed on one side of the bottom of the guiding mechanism, and the feeding mechanism is installed on the other side of the bottom of the guiding mechanism. Driven by the cross slide 22, the loading assembly 4 takes the electrode workpiece 1 to be processed from the feeding mechanism and installs it on the clamping and rotating device 21 of the CNC lathe 2. The pushing mechanism pushes the electrode workpiece 1 to be processed in the guiding mechanism into the feeding mechanism.

[0027] The material guiding mechanism includes a guide plate 51, rollers 53 and a limiting frame 54. The guide plate 51 is fixedly installed on the CNC lathe 2. A guide groove 52 is opened on the side wall of the guide plate 51. Multiple rollers 53 are rotatably connected in the guide groove 52. The limiting frame 54 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the guide plate 51. The guide groove 52 and the limiting frame 54 form a sliding channel for the electrode workpiece 1 to be processed. The guide plates 51 on both sides of the bottom of the guide groove 52 are provided with notches 512. A batch of workpieces to be processed are arranged in an orderly manner along the guide trough 52. Under the action of gravity, they slide down to the bottom of the guide trough 52. The pushing mechanism is activated, pushing the single workpiece at the bottom of the guide trough 52 into the limiting frame 510 of the feeding mechanism. The first suction cup 511 of the feeding mechanism is connected to negative pressure to adsorb and fix the workpiece, preventing it from shifting after being pushed. It waits for the material picking signal from the loading component 4. The workpiece is handed over to the loading component 4 by the feeding cylinder 58. After the workpiece is taken away, the pushing mechanism pushes the next workpiece to the feeding mechanism again. The feeding is cyclical, realizing the batch automatic feeding of workpieces to be processed, replacing manual feeding one piece at a time, and reducing manual intervention.

[0028] The pushing mechanism includes a connecting plate 55, a pushing cylinder 56, and a pushing plate 57. The pushing cylinder 56 is fixedly installed on the bottom side wall of the guide plate 51 via the connecting plate 55. The pushing plate 57 is fixedly installed on the telescopic shaft of the pushing cylinder 56. The pushing plate 57 is slidably connected in the notch 512. The pushing cylinder 56 drives the pushing plate 57 to extend along the notch 512. The pushing plate 57 precisely pushes the single workpiece at the bottom of the guide groove 52 and pushes it into the limiting frame 510 of the feeding mechanism. After being pushed into place, the pushing cylinder 56 resets and waits for the next no-load signal of the feeding mechanism. The cycle continues to ensure that the feeding mechanism receives only one workpiece at a time, avoiding the simultaneous feeding of multiple pieces.

[0029] The feeding mechanism includes a feeding cylinder 58, a feeding frame 59, a limiting frame 510, and a first suction cup 511. The bottom side wall of the guide plate 51 is fixedly installed with the limiting frame 510. The feeding cylinder 58 is installed on the bottom of the guide plate 51 through a fixing plate. The top back of the feeding frame 59 is fixedly installed with the telescopic shaft of the feeding cylinder 58. The first suction cup 511 is fixedly installed on the feeding frame 59.

[0030] After the pushing mechanism pushes the workpiece into the limiting frame 510, the limiting frame 510 restricts the radial and axial displacement of the workpiece to achieve initial positioning. The first suction cup 511 is connected to negative pressure to adsorb the surface of the workpiece, further fixing the workpiece and preventing slippage. When the loading assembly 4 moves to the picking position, the feeding cylinder 58 drives the feeding frame 59 to extend and push the positioned workpiece into the gripping range of the clamping mechanism 7 of the loading assembly 4. After the loading assembly 4 clamps the workpiece, the first suction cup 511 is depressurized, and the feeding cylinder 58 drives the feeding frame 59 to reset, waiting for the next workpiece. The pushing action of the feeding cylinder 58 cooperates with the second cylinder 42 of the loading assembly 4 to achieve smooth handover of the workpiece and avoid collisions during picking.

[0031] like Figure 2 and Figure 7 As shown, the unloading assembly 6 is horizontally mounted on the side wall of the CNC lathe 2. The unloading assembly 6 picks up the processed electrode workpiece 1 from the transfer assembly 3. Specifically, the unloading assembly 6 includes a guide plate 61, a linear module 62, a connecting frame 63, a horizontal plate 64, a receiving plate 65, a receiving cylinder 66, a movable plate 67, an adjusting mechanism 68, and a second suction cup 69. The guide plate 61 is fixedly mounted on the CNC lathe 2. The linear module 62 is mounted on the side wall of the guide plate 61. The nut seat of the linear module 62 is fixedly mounted to the connecting frame 63. One end of the horizontal plate 64 is fixedly mounted to the connecting frame 63, and the other end of the horizontal plate 64 is fixedly mounted to the receiving plate 65. The receiving cylinder 66 is mounted on the top surface of the receiving plate 65. One end of the movable plate 67 is fixedly mounted to the telescopic shaft of the receiving cylinder 66, and the other end of the movable plate 67 is slidably connected to the receiving plate 65 through a linear guide rail 610. The second suction cup 69 is mounted on the movable plate 67 through the adjusting mechanism 68. The linear module 62 drives the connecting frame 63 and the horizontal plate 64 to move, causing the receiving plate 65 to move closer to the picking position of the transfer component 3, so that the second suction cup 69 is aligned with the finished part held by the transfer component 3. The receiving cylinder 66 drives the movable plate 67 to make fine adjustments to ensure that the second suction cup 69 is in contact with the surface of the finished part. The second suction cup 69 is connected to negative pressure to adsorb the finished part. The clamping mechanism 7 of the transfer component 3 is released, completing the handover of the finished part. The linear module 62 drives the receiving plate 65 to move to the preset unloading area. The second suction cup 69 is depressurized to release the finished part, completing the unloading. At the same time, during the unloading process, the loading component 4 can perform loading and unloading actions simultaneously without interference, realizing the automatic reception and transfer of finished parts, replacing manual unloading.

[0032] Among them, such as Figure 8 As shown, the adjustment mechanism 68 includes an adjustment plate 681, a knob 682, a threaded post 683, a first slide groove 684, and a limiting post 685. The adjustment plate 681 has a first slide groove 684 inside. The threaded post 683 and the limiting post 685 are fixedly connected to the side wall of the movable plate 67. The adjustment plate 681 is fitted onto the threaded post 683 and the limiting post 685 through the first slide groove 684. The knob 682 is threadedly connected to the side wall of the threaded post 683 and abuts against the adjustment plate 681. The adjustment plate 681... 1. A second suction cup 69 is fixedly installed at the bottom. When the knob 682 is loosened, the adjusting plate 681 can slide along the first slide groove 684 to adjust the horizontal position of the second suction cup 69. According to the diameter and length specifications of the finished part, the position of the adjusting plate 681 is adjusted so that the second suction cup 69 can accurately adsorb the center of gravity of the workpiece. After the adjustment is in place, the knob 682 is tightened, and the adjusting plate 681 is pressed by the threaded post 683 to lock the position of the suction cup. The limiting post 685 restricts the offset of the adjusting plate 681 to ensure the adsorption posture.

The specific embodiments described above are merely illustrative and not restrictive. Those skilled in the art can make many other forms under the guidance of the present invention, all of which are within the protection scope of the present invention.
