[0019] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model more clear, the utility model is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described here are only used to explain the utility model and are not used to limit the utility model.

[0020] like Figure 1 As shown, a glue-bonding unloading mechanism includes a translation component 2 and a clamping jaw component 1. The clamping jaw component 1 clamps the battery cell, and the translation component 2 drives the clamping jaw component 1 to move. The translation component 2 has a long stroke and can clamp the battery cell from different processes.

[0021] Please combine Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, the clamp assembly 1 includes a clamp bracket 11, a guide rail 14, a material sensor 15, an upper clamp unit 12 and a lower clamp unit 13. The guide rail 14 and the material sensor 15 are installed on the clamp bracket 11. The upper clamp unit 12 moves along the guide rail 14 toward the lower clamp unit 13, and the lower clamp unit 13 moves along the guide rail 14 toward the upper clamp unit 12. The material sensor 15 is aligned between the upper clamp unit 12 and the lower clamp unit 13, and is used to sense that the battery cell is located between the upper clamp unit 12 and the lower clamp unit 13, so that the upper clamp unit 12 and the lower clamp unit 13 are driven to clamp the battery cell.

[0022] Specifically, the upper jaw unit 12 includes an upper jaw cylinder 121, an upper jaw mounting seat 123, an upper floating joint 122, a first unloading jaw 124 and an upper oil pressure buffer 125. The upper jaw cylinder 121 is installed on the jaw bracket 11, and the two first unloading jaws 124 are installed on the upper jaw mounting seat 123. The upper jaw cylinder 121 is connected to the upper jaw mounting seat 123 through the upper floating joint 122. The upper jaw cylinder 121 drives the upper jaw mounting seat 123 to move along the guide rail 14. The upper oil pressure buffer 125 is installed on the upper floating joint 122, thereby limiting the upper limit position of the movement of the upper jaw mounting seat 123. An upper jaw mounting hole 126 is provided on the upper jaw mounting seat 123, and a bolt passes through the upper jaw mounting hole 126 and is threadedly connected to the first blanking jaw 124. The installation position of the first blanking jaw 124 can be adjusted according to the size of the battery cell to adapt to different types of battery cells. The lower end face of the first blanking jaw 124 is provided with a soft silicone layer to protect the battery cell.

[0023] Specifically, the lower jaw unit 13 includes a lower jaw cylinder 131, a lower jaw mounting seat 133, a lower floating joint 132, a second unloading hand jaw 134, a lower oil pressure buffer 135 and a pressure regulating valve 136. The pressure regulating valve 136 and the lower jaw cylinder 131 are installed on the jaw bracket 11. The pressure regulating valve 136 is connected to the lower jaw cylinder 131 to adjust the driving pressure of the lower jaw cylinder 131 to ensure that the driving pressure of the lower jaw cylinder 131 is less than the driving pressure of the upper jaw cylinder 121. In order to prevent the upper jaw unit 12 and the lower jaw unit 13 from moving up and down due to the change of the clamping force after the battery cell is clamped, the two second unloading jaws 134 are installed on the lower jaw mounting seat 133, and the lower jaw cylinder 131 is connected to the lower jaw mounting seat 133 through the lower floating joint 132. The lower jaw cylinder 131 drives the lower jaw mounting seat 133 to move along the guide rail 14, and the lower hydraulic buffer 135 is installed on the lower floating joint 132, thereby limiting the lower limit of the movement of the lower jaw mounting seat 133. The lower jaw mounting seat 133 is provided with a lower jaw mounting hole 137, and the bolt passes through the lower jaw mounting hole 137 and is threadedly connected with the second unloading jaw 134. The installation position of the second unloading jaw 134 can be adjusted according to the size of the battery cell, so as to adapt to different types of battery cells. The lower end surface of the second unloading jaw 134 is provided with a soft silicone layer to protect the battery cell.

[0024] Please continue to refer to Figure 1 As shown, the translation assembly 2 includes a transverse movement module 21, a module mounting base 22, a drag chain 23 and a drag chain roller 24. The transverse movement module 21 is connected to the clamping claw assembly 1, and the transverse movement module 21 is mounted on the module mounting base 22. The transverse movement module 21 can be a motor-driven screw active module or a linear motor-driven module. One end of the drag chain 23 is mounted on the module mounting base 22, and the other end is mounted on the clamping claw bracket 11. The drag chain roller 24 is mounted on one side of the module mounting base 22 for supporting the movement of the drag chain 23 to prevent the drag chain 23 from breaking when moving at high speed. A drag chain baffle 25 is provided at one end of the drag chain roller 24 to prevent the drag chain 23 from swinging left and right and sliding out of the drag chain roller 24 during operation.
