[0029] Example

[0030] The battery 20 feeding device disclosed in this embodiment is as follows: Figure 1~Figure 2 As shown, it includes a loading conveyor belt 1, on which a loading cup holder 2 for positioning a battery 20 is provided; a unloading conveyor belt 3, on which a unloading cup holder 4 for positioning a battery 20 is provided; a rotating frame 5, which is arranged between the loading conveyor belt 1 and the unloading conveyor belt 3; a clamp 6, which is hung on the rotating frame 5 through a lifting member, and the rotating frame 5 rotates to switch the clamp 6 to be located above the loading conveyor belt 1 or above the unloading conveyor belt 3.

[0031] The working process of the above-mentioned battery 20 loading device is as follows: the battery 20 is placed in the loading cup holder 2 of the loading conveyor belt 1, and the batteries 20 placed on the loading cup holder 2 on the loading conveyor belt 1 are arranged in sequence, and the rotating frame 5 drives the clamp 6 to rotate to the loading conveyor belt 1. At this time, the lifting part causes the clamp 6 to descend, and the clamp 6 clamps the battery 20 on the loading conveyor belt 1, and the descending part rises. At the same time, the rotating frame 5 drives the clamp 6 clamping the battery 20 to rotate to the top of the lower conveyor belt, and the lifting part descends again, so that the battery 20 in the clamp 6 is inserted into the unloading cup holder 4 of the unloading conveyor belt 3. The clamp 6 is released to unload the battery 20, and the battery 20 moves according to the linear speed of the unloading conveyor belt 3.

[0032] The functions and benefits of the above-mentioned battery 20 loading device are as follows: the rotating frame 5 rotates to switch the clamp 6 to be located above the loading conveyor belt 1 or above the unloading conveyor belt 3. The rotation frequency of the rotating frame 5 can control the clamp 6 to move the battery 20 on the loading conveyor belt 1 to the unloading conveyor belt 3 at a predetermined time point, so that the battery 20 can be automatically moved from one device to another smoothly and meet the working line speed of different devices.

[0033] like Figure 3 As shown, the rotating frame 5 includes a rotating shaft 7 and a rotating plate 8. The rotating plate 8 rotates around the rotating shaft 7, and the bottom surface of the rotating plate 8 points to the loading conveyor belt 1 and the unloading conveyor belt 3.

[0034] The rotating shaft 7 drives the rotating plate 8 to rotate, and the bottom surface of the rotating plate 8 points to the loading conveyor belt 1 and the unloading conveyor belt 3, so that the clamp 6 can be better located above the loading conveyor belt 1 or the unloading conveyor belt 3.

[0035] In this embodiment, the rotating frame 5 further includes a supporting rod 9 placed on the ground, a connecting rod 10 is provided on the top of the supporting rod 9 , and the rotating shaft 7 is provided on the connecting rod 10 .

[0036] Since the rotating frame 5 includes the support rod 9 and the rotating shaft 7 is arranged on the connecting rod 10, when the rotating frame 5 needs to be moved, the entire rotating frame 5 can be transferred by directly moving the support rod 9, which is convenient for production operation.

[0037] like Figure 1~Figure 3 As shown, the rotating plate 8 is hung with at least two groups of clamps 6 , wherein the two groups of clamps 6 are correspondingly located above the loading conveyor belt 1 and above the unloading conveyor belt 3 .

[0038] Since at least two groups of clamps 6 are hung on the rotating plate 8, loading and unloading can be performed simultaneously, thereby improving production efficiency or adapting to more unloading frequencies.

[0039] like Figure 1~Figure 3As shown, the rotating plate 8 is a square plate, and four groups of clamps 6 are hung on the rotating plate 8. The four groups of clamps 6 are hung on the rotating plate 8 in a centrally symmetrical and equidistant manner.

[0040] The square plate has good symmetry, and four sets of clamps 6 are symmetrically and equidistantly hung at the center of the square plate, so that the loading and unloading frequency is higher, further improving the production efficiency or adapting to more unloading frequencies.

[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, each clamp 6 is provided with a plurality of clamping jaws 11, each of the clamping jaws 11 includes a first holding arm 12 and a second holding arm 13, the first holding arm 12 and the second holding arm are close to form a clamping ring, and the first holding arm 12 and the second holding arm are separated and in a loose state.

[0042] The clamping claw 11 is configured as a clamping ring that is adapted to the shape of the battery 20 , and the clamping ring can be inserted onto the battery 20 from top to bottom, adapted to the operation of the clamp 6 rising or falling, thereby improving the convenience of clamping the battery 20 .

[0043] like Figure 3 As shown, the lifting member is a cylinder 14 , and each of the clamping jaws 11 is hung on the rotating plate 8 through a single cylinder 14 .

[0044] The cylinder 14 can produce accurate raising or lowering operation.

[0045] like Figure 2 As shown, the loading conveyor belt 1 and the unloading conveyor belt 3 are arranged side by side.

[0046] Since the loading conveyor belt 1 and the unloading conveyor belt 3 are arranged side by side, it is convenient for the clamp 6 on the rotating frame 5 to conveniently move the battery 20 from the loading conveyor belt 1 to the unloading conveyor belt 3 .

[0047] like Figure 2 As shown, the feeding conveyor belt 1 is provided with a threaded rod 15, and the threaded rod 15 rotates around its axis. The threaded rod 15 is opposite to the clamp 6 and is located on both sides of the feeding conveyor belt 1, and each thread groove 16 of the threaded rod 15 is adapted to a single feeding cup holder 2.

[0048] Since the threaded rod 15 extends along the length direction of the conveyor belt, a uniform adjustment force will be generated during the rotation of the threaded rod 15, and since the threaded groove 16 of the threaded rod 15 is adapted to the loading cup holder 2, the threaded rod 15 can be rotated to adjust the position of the loading cup holder 2 so that it can be accurately aligned with the clamp 6, which is convenient for subsequent accurate unloading and prevents the problem of missing parts.

[0049] like Figure 1As shown, the inner side edge of the loading conveyor belt 1 is provided with a slide groove 17 extending along its length direction, and the unloading cup holder 4 includes a positioning groove 18, and a slider 19 is connected below the positioning groove 18. The side edge of the slider 19 is provided with a protrusion, and the protrusion is adapted to the slide groove 17.

[0050] The slider 19 is adapted to the slide groove 17 through the protrusion, which can effectively limit the movement frequency of the slider 19, improve the accuracy of the movement of the slider 19, and then accurately ensure the movement linear speed of the battery 20.

Thus, the exemplary term "above" can include both "above" and "below". The device can also be positioned in other different ways (rotated 90 degrees or in other orientations), and the spatially relative descriptions used here are interpreted accordingly.

[0054] In addition, it should be noted that the use of terms such as "first" and "second" to limit components is only for the convenience of distinguishing the corresponding components. Unless otherwise stated, the above terms have no special meaning and therefore cannot be understood as limiting the scope of protection of this application.
