[0040] At present, from the perspective of market development, the application of power batteries is becoming more and more extensive. Power batteries are not only used in energy storage power systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power and solar power stations, but also widely used in electric vehicles such as electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, electric cars, as well as military equipment and aerospace and other fields. With the continuous expansion of the application field of power batteries, the market demand is also constantly expanding.

[0041] After the battery is assembled, there may be moisture inside the battery, so the battery needs to be dried to improve the stability of the battery. The battery conveyor is used to convey the battery from the upstream process to the drying process. After the battery conveyor conveys the battery to the designated location, the robot grabs the battery and transfers the battery to the drying device for drying. The number of batteries that the robot grabs at one time is certain, so after the battery conveyor conveys the battery to the designated location, the battery needs to be grouped. The number of batteries in each group is certain, and the robot grabs all the batteries in a group when grabbing the battery. However, the process of grouping batteries is relatively cumbersome, which affects the drying efficiency. At the same time, grouping also requires the cooperation of staff and other devices, which increases production costs.

[0042] To solve the above technical problems, an embodiment of the present application provides a battery conveying device, which includes a conveying module, a plurality of trays and a transmission module. The conveying module includes a stator assembly and a plurality of movers, a plurality of trays are connected to the plurality of movers in a one-to-one correspondence, and the tray is configured to support the battery. The stator assembly includes a mounting bracket, a conveying platform, a plurality of conveying stators, a return platform and a plurality of return stators. The conveying platform and the return platform are both connected to the mounting bracket, a plurality of conveying stators are connected to the conveying platform, the arrangement direction of the plurality of conveying stators is the same as the conveying direction of the battery, and the mover and the conveying stator can be connected by magnetic force. A plurality of return stators are connected to the return platform, the arrangement direction of the plurality of return stators is the same as the conveying direction, and the mover and the return stator can be connected by magnetic force. The transmission module is configured to move the mover connected to the conveying stator to the one connected to the return stator, and move the mover connected to the return stator to the one connected to the conveying stator. Since the movers are driven by magnetic force, the moving speed of the movers and the distance between two adjacent movers can be controlled by controlling the magnitude of the magnetic force. After the batteries reach the specified position, the arrangement of the batteries can be controlled by magnetic force, so that the batteries are arranged according to the number and spacing that the robot needs to grab. In other words, the batteries can be grouped directly through the battery conveyor without additional grouping of the batteries, which reduces the number of processes and improves the drying efficiency.

[0043] The batteries produced by the battery conveying device and the battery drying system disclosed in the embodiments of the present application can be used, but not limited to, in electrical devices such as vehicles, ships, or aircraft.

[0044] The embodiment of the present application provides a battery transmission device, Figure 1 This is a simplified front view of the battery conveying device of some embodiments of the present application. Figure 1 The battery conveying device includes a conveying module 10, a plurality of trays 20 and a transmission module 30. The conveying module 10 includes a stator assembly 11 and a plurality of movers 12, the plurality of trays 20 are connected to the plurality of movers 12 in a one-to-one correspondence, and the trays 20 are configured to support batteries.

[0045] Figure 2 For this application Figure 1 Detailed structural diagram of A in the figure. Figure 2 The stator assembly 11 includes a mounting bracket 111, a conveying platform 112, a plurality of conveying stators 113, a return platform 114, and a plurality of return stators 115. The conveying platform 112 and the return platform 114 are both connected to the mounting bracket 111, a plurality of conveying stators 113 are connected to the conveying platform 112, the arrangement direction of the plurality of conveying stators 113 is the same as the conveying direction X of the battery, and the mover 12 and the conveying stator 113 can be connected by magnetic force. A plurality of return stators 115 are connected to the return platform 114, the arrangement direction of the plurality of return stators 115 is the same as the conveying direction X, and the mover 12 and the return stator 115 can be connected by magnetic force.

[0046] The transmission module 30 is configured to move the mover 12 connected to the transmission stator 113 to be connected to the return stator 115 , and to move the mover 12 connected to the return stator 115 to be connected to the transmission stator 113 .

[0047] In the embodiment of the present application, the stator assembly 11 is connected to the mover 12 by magnetic force, and the transmission module 10 can be understood as a magnetic drive motor, which drives the mover 12 to slide on the stator assembly 11 by magnetic force. Since the stator assembly 11 and the mover 12 are connected by magnetic force, there is no contact between the stator assembly 11 and the mover 12. During the movement of the mover 12, the friction between the stator assembly 11 and the mover 12 is small, the energy consumption of the battery transmission device is low, and the cost can be reduced.

[0048] In the embodiment of the present application, during normal use of the battery conveyor, the battery conveyor is placed on the ground, and the conveying direction X of the battery is parallel to the ground. The conveying direction X is not limited to a straight line direction. When the battery is conveyed along a straight line, the conveying direction X is a straight line direction. When the battery is conveyed along a curve, the conveying direction X is a curve direction.

[0049] In the embodiment of the present application, the tray 20 is connected to the mover 12 in a one-to-one correspondence, that is, one tray 20 is connected to one mover 12, and one mover 12 is also connected to only one tray 20. The tray 20 can be used to support batteries, and when the mover 12 slides on the stator assembly 11 along the conveying direction X, the mover 12 drives the batteries supported on the tray 20 to move, thereby realizing the conveying of the batteries.

[0050] In an embodiment of the present application, the tray 20 and the mover 12 may be connected in a detachable manner, or the tray 20 and the mover 12 may be connected in a non-detachable manner.

[0051] In the embodiment of the present application, the mounting bracket 111 provides support for the entire stator assembly 11 , and the form of the mounting bracket 111 is not limited, for example, the mounting bracket 111 may be in the form of a frame.

[0052] In the embodiment of the present application, the extension direction of the conveying platform 112 is the same as the conveying direction X. The conveying platform 112 defines the moving direction of the mover 12. Exemplarily, the conveying platform 112 may be in the form of a conveying plate.

[0053] In the embodiment of the present application, the transmission stator 113 is a component magnetically connected to the mover 12 , and the mover 12 moves along the arrangement direction of the transmission stator 113 . When the mover 12 moves on the transmission stator 113 , the transmission stator 113 is stationary.

[0054] In an embodiment of the present application, the mounting bracket 111 provides support for the conveying platform 112. The conveying platform 112 limits the arrangement direction of the conveying stator 113 and provides support for the conveying stator 113. The conveying stator 113 is a component magnetically connected to the mover 12. This structure is more concise and can simplify the structure of the entire battery conveying device.

[0055] Among them, the return platform 114 has the same structure as the conveying platform 112, the return stator 115 has the same structure as the conveying stator 113, and the mover 12 can also move along the arrangement direction of the return stator 115. When the mover 12 moves on the return stator 115, the return stator 115 is stationary.

[0056] In the embodiment of the present application, the transmission module 30 may be in the form of an elevator or a transmission belt, or the transmission module 30 may be in other forms, as long as the transmission module 30 can transmit the mover 12 .

[0057] In an embodiment of the present application, a transmission module 30 is provided for transmitting the mover 12, so that the transmission stator 113 and the mover 12 realize the transmission of the tray 20 and the battery 200, and the return stator 115 and the mover 12 realize the recovery of the tray 20, so that the tray 20 can receive the battery 200 again, and the battery transmission device can realize continuous transmission of the battery 200, and the battery transmission device can transmit more batteries 200, and the transmission efficiency is higher.

[0058] In an embodiment of the present application, the battery is placed on the tray 20, and the mover 12 is controlled to slide on the stator assembly 11 along the conveying direction X to realize the conveying of the battery. Since the stator assembly 11 is connected to the mover 12 by magnetic force, that is, the mover 12 is driven by magnetic force, the moving speed of the mover 12 and the distance between two adjacent movers 12 can be controlled by controlling the magnitude of the magnetic force. After the battery reaches the specified position, the arrangement of the battery can be controlled by magnetic force, so that the battery is arranged according to the number and spacing that the robot needs to grab, that is, the battery can be directly grouped by the battery conveying device, without additional grouping of the battery, reducing the process and improving the drying efficiency.

[0059] In the embodiments of the present application, battery assembly can be achieved without the cooperation of staff and other devices, thereby reducing production costs.

The other return stators in the multiple return stators 115 are all located at the return start stator 1151 and the return end stator 1152.

[0065] In the embodiment of the present application, the tray 20 connected to the mover 12 receives the battery 200 at the transmission start stator 1131, and the mover 12 drives the tray 20 and the battery 200 to move along the transmission direction X on the multiple transmission stators 113. After the tray 20 moves to the set position, the battery 200 on the tray 20 is taken away by the robot, and the mover 12 drives the tray 20 to continue to move, and the mover 12 moves to connect with the transmission termination stator 1132; the mover 12 moves from the transmission termination stator 1132 to connect with the return start stator 1151, and the mover 12 drives the tray 20 to move along the transmission direction X on the multiple return stators 115, and the mover 12 moves to connect with the return termination stator 1152. The mover 12 moves from the return termination stator 1152 to connect with the transmission start stator 1131, and receives the battery 200 again. That is, the conveying stator 113 and the mover 12 realize the conveying of the tray 20 and the battery 200, and the returning stator 115 and the mover 12 realize the recovery of the tray 20, so that the tray can receive the battery 200 again, and the battery conveying device can realize the continuous conveying of the battery 200, and the battery conveying device can convey more batteries 200, and the conveying efficiency is higher.

[0070] In an embodiment of the present application, the transmission termination stator 1132 is opposite to the return starting stator 1151, and the return termination stator 1152 is opposite to the transmission starting stator 1131, so that the mover 12 can move from the transmission termination stator 1132 to the return starting stator 1151, and from the return termination stator 1152 to the transmission starting stator 1131.

[0071] According to some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 1 , the transmission module 30 is located on opposite sides of the transmission platform 112 along the transmission direction X.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present application, the transmission bracket 31 provides support for the entire transmission module 30, and the transmission track 32 is connected to the transmission bracket 31 to improve the stability of the transmission track 32. The transmission track 32 extends along the first direction Z to define the moving direction of the transmission stator 34, and the transmission platform 33 connects the transmission track 32 and the transmission stator 34, so that the transmission stator 34 can move along the first direction Z.

[0077] According to some embodiments of the present application, Figure 4 This is a simplified front view of a battery conveying device according to some other embodiments of the present application. Figure 4 , the transmission termination stator 1132 is connected to the return starting stator 1151 , and the return termination stator 1152 is connected to the transmission starting stator 1131 .

[0078] It should be noted that Figure 4 In order to show the connection relationship between the transmission termination stator 1132 and the return start stator 1151, and the connection relationship between the return termination stator 1152 and the transmission start stator 1131, Figure 4 Other components are not shown.

[0079] Combination Figures 2 to 4 When the mover 12 moves to connect with the return stator 115, the battery 200 on the tray 20 has been taken away.

[0080] In an embodiment of the present application, the transmission termination stator 1132 is connected to the return start stator 1151, and the mover 12 can move directly from the transmission termination stator 1132 to the return start stator 1151. The return termination stator 1152 is connected to the transmission start stator 1131, and the mover 12 can move directly from the return termination stator 1152 to the transmission start stator 1131. There is no need to set up other transmission components to move the mover 12, which makes the structure of the battery transmission device simpler.

[0081] According to some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 For this application Figure 1 Detailed front view at center C. See Figure 5 The multiple transmission stators 113 also include a first cache stator 1133, and the first cache stator 1133 is located in the middle of the multiple transmission stators 113. The battery transmission device also includes a cache module 40 and a moving module 50. The mover 12 and the cache module 40 can be connected by magnetic force. The first cache stator 1133 is connected to the moving module 50. The moving module 50 is configured to move the mover 12 on the transmission stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133 to the cache module 40 through the first cache stator 1133.

[0082] In the embodiment of the present application, the first cache stator 1133 is connected to the moving module 50 , which means that the moving module 50 can drive the first cache stator 1133 to move.

[0083] The battery conveying device receives batteries 200 from an upstream process. There may be unqualified batteries among the batteries 200. These unqualified batteries do not need to be dried and need to be removed before entering the drying device.

[0084] It should be noted that the moving module 50 is configured to move the mover 12 on the transmission stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133 to the cache module 40 through the first cache stator 1133. It can be understood that the first cache stator 1133 directly drives the mover 12 to move to the cache module 40, or the first cache stator 1133 cooperates with other components to drive the mover 12 to move to the cache module 40.

[0085] In an embodiment of the present application, during the process of conveying the battery 200, if an unqualified battery is found and the unqualified battery is moved to the conveying stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133, the moving module 50 moves the mover 12 on the conveying stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133 to the cache module 40 through the first cache stator 1133, thereby moving the unqualified battery on the mover 12 to the cache module 40 and removing the unqualified battery.

[0086] In the embodiment of the present application, after the unqualified battery is moved to the cache module 40, the moving module 50 will drive the first cache stator 1133 to move to the original position, so that the battery conveying device can normally convey the battery.

[0087] In the embodiment of the present application, unqualified batteries are first cached in the cache module 40. After a certain number of unqualified batteries are cached, the staff will take the unqualified batteries away.

[0088] According to some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 4, the cache module 40 includes a cache platform 41 and a plurality of second cache stators 42. The cache platform 41 is connected to the mounting bracket 111, and the cache platform 41 is located on the side of the conveying platform 112 away from the return platform 114 along the first direction Z. The plurality of second cache stators 42 are connected to the cache platform 41, and the mover 12 and the second cache stator 42 can be connected by magnetic force. Among them, the moving module 50 is configured to move the mover 12 on the conveying stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133 through the first cache stator 1133 to connect with the second cache stator 42.

[0089] In the embodiment of the present application, the cache platform 41 is connected to the mounting bracket 111 to improve the stability of the cache platform 41. The mover 12 and the second cache stator 42 can be connected by magnetic force, that is, the mover 12 can move on the plurality of second cache stators 42.

[0090] In an embodiment of the present application, when the unqualified batteries are moved to the conveying stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133, the mobile module 50 moves the mover 12 on the conveying stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133 through the first cache stator 1133 and connects it to the second cache stator 42. The mover 12 can move on the second cache stator 42, so that the unqualified batteries are moved to the side of the cache platform 41 away from the mobile module 50. The unqualified batteries are cached in turn. At the same time, the distance between two adjacent unqualified batteries can be controlled by magnetic force, so that the cache platform 41 can store more unqualified batteries. After a certain number of unqualified batteries are stored, they can be taken away by the staff, which improves work efficiency.

[0091] According to some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 5 The moving module 50 includes a moving bracket 51, a moving track 52 and a first moving platform 53. The moving track 52 is connected to the moving bracket 51, the moving track 52 extends along the first direction Z, the first moving platform 53 is slidably connected to the moving track 52, and the first cache stator 1133 is connected to the first moving platform 53.

[0092] In the embodiment of the present application, the mobile bracket 51 provides support for the entire mobile module 50, and the mobile track 52 is connected to the mobile bracket 51 to improve the stability of the mobile track 52. The mobile track 52 extends along the first direction Z to define the moving direction of the first mobile platform 53, and the first mobile platform 53 is connected to the first cache stator 1133, so that the first cache stator 1133 can move along the first direction Z.

[0093] In the embodiment of the present application, when the first cache stator 1133 contacts the second cache stator 42 , the mover 12 can move between the first cache stator 1133 and the second cache stator 42 .

[0094] In the embodiment of the present application, when the battery conveying device conveys the battery normally, both sides of the first cache stator 1133 are conveying stators 113. When the unqualified battery moves to the first cache stator 1133, all movers 12 are controlled to stop moving, and then the first moving platform 53 is controlled to move along the moving track 52, so that the first cache stator 1133 contacts the second cache stator 42, and the mover 12 moves from connecting with the first cache stator 1133 to connecting with the second cache stator 42. That is, the moving module 50 moves the unqualified battery to the cache module 40 through the first cache stator 1133. Then the first moving platform 53 is controlled to move along the moving track 52, so that the first cache stator 1133 contacts the conveying stator 113, and the mover 12 starts to move and convey the battery 200 again.

[0095] According to some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 5 The mobile module 50 also includes a second mobile platform 54 and a mobile stator 55. The second mobile platform 54 is located on the side of the first mobile platform 53 close to the cache platform 41. The second mobile platform 54 is slidably connected to the mobile track 52. The mobile stator 55 is connected to the second mobile platform 54. The mobile stator 55 can contact the second cache stator 42 and the conveying stator 113 respectively.

[0096] In the embodiment of the present application, the second moving platform 54 and the first moving platform 53 are both slidably connected to the moving track 52 , and the second moving platform 54 and the first moving platform 53 are arranged along the first direction Z.

[0097] As described above, when the moving module 50 removes unqualified batteries, the mover 12 stops moving, which will affect the transmission efficiency of the battery transmission device.

[0098] In the embodiment of the present application, when the battery conveying device conveys the battery normally, both sides of the first cache stator 1133 are conveying stators 113, and the moving stator 55 is located above the first cache stator 1133. When the unqualified battery moves to the conveying stator 113 adjacent to the first cache stator 1133, all the movers 12 are first controlled to stop moving, and then the first moving platform 53 and the second moving platform 54 are controlled to move downward along the moving track 52. The first moving platform 53 drives the first cache stator 1133 to avoid, and the second moving platform 54 drives the moving stator 113 to move downward. 55 moves to the original position of the first cache stator 1133; then controls the mover 12 to move to connect with the moving stator 55; then controls the first moving platform 53 and the second moving platform 54 to move upward along the moving track 52, the first moving platform 53 drives the first cache stator 1133 back to the initial position, and the other movers 12 can start to move and transport the battery 200 again; the second moving platform 54 drives the moving stator 55 to move to contact with the second cache stator 42, and the mover 12 moves from connecting with the moving stator 55 to connecting with the second cache stator 42. When the mobile module 50 removes unqualified batteries, the mover 12 stops for a shorter time, which improves the transmission efficiency of the battery conveying device.

[0099] According to some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 5 The battery conveying device further includes a storage module 60, and the mover 12 and the storage module 60 can be connected by magnetic force. The moving module 50 is configured to move the mover 12 connected to the storage module 60 to be connected to the conveying stator 113 through the first cache stator 1133.

[0100] The battery 200 is conveyed to the drying device for drying by the battery conveying device. After the battery is dried, it is necessary to check whether the inside of the battery is completely dried. The battery needs to be disassembled for inspection, which may damage some batteries.

[0101] In an embodiment of the present application, a storage module 60 is provided, on which experimental batteries are stored. The experimental batteries have the same structure as the batteries to be dried and are disassembled. The moving module 50 can move the experimental batteries to be connected to the conveying stator 113 through the first cache stator 1133. The experimental batteries enter the drying device along with the battery 200 for drying. After drying, the experimental batteries can be disassembled to understand the drying effect. There is no need to disassemble the battery 200, and the battery will not be damaged.

[0102] According to some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 5The storage module 60 includes a storage platform 61 and a plurality of storage stators 62. The storage platform 61 is connected to the mounting bracket 111. The storage platform 61 is located on the side of the conveying platform 112 away from the return platform 114 along the first direction Z. The storage platform 61 and the cache platform 41 are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction X. The moving module 50 is located between the storage platform 61 and the cache platform 41. A plurality of storage stators 62 are connected to the storage platform 61, and the mover 12 and the storage stator 62 can be connected by magnetic force. Among them, the moving module 50 is configured to move the mover 12 connected to the storage stator 62 to be connected to the conveying stator 113 through the first cache stator 1133.

[0103] In an embodiment of the present application, the storage platform 61 is connected to the mounting bracket 111 to improve the stability of the storage platform 61. The mover 12 and the storage stator 62 can be connected by magnetic force, that is, the mover 12 can move on multiple storage stators 62. The storage stator 62 is magnetically connected to the mover 12, and the mover 12 is connected to the tray 20, and the tray 20 carries the experimental battery.

[0104] When the experimental battery needs to be transferred to the drying device, in some embodiments, all movers 12 can be controlled to stop moving first, and then the first moving platform 53 can be controlled to move along the moving track 52 so that the first cache stator 1133 contacts the storage stator 62, and the mover 12 moves from being connected to the storage stator 62 to being connected to the first cache stator 1133, and then the first moving platform 53 is controlled to move along the moving track 52 so that the first cache stator 1133 contacts the transfer stator 113, and the mover 12 is controlled to start moving again, the experimental battery is inserted into the battery 200, and enters the subsequent drying device. In other embodiments, in the initial state, the two sides of the moving stator 55 are respectively in contact with the second cache stator 42 and the storage stator 62. The mover 12 connected to the storage stator 62 is first controlled to move to connect with the moving stator 55, and then all the movers 12 are controlled to stop moving. Then the first moving platform 53 and the second moving platform 54 are controlled to move downward along the moving track 52. The first moving platform 53 drives the first cache stator 1133 to avoid, and the second moving platform 54 drives the moving stator 55 to move to the original position of the first cache stator 1133; then the mover 12 is controlled to move to connect with the conveying stator 113; then the first moving platform 53 and the second moving platform 54 are controlled to move upward along the moving track 52. The first moving platform 53 drives the first cache stator 1133 back to the initial position, and other movers 12 can start moving the conveying battery 200 again; the second moving platform 54 drives the moving stator 55 to contact with the second cache stator 42 and the storage stator 62.

[0105] According to some embodiments of the present application, see Figure 5, multiple return stators 115 include a first supplementary stator 1153 for conveying, the battery conveying device also includes a supplementary module 70, the first supplementary stator 1153 is connected to the supplementary module 70, and the supplementary module 70 is configured to move the mover 12 on the return stator 115 adjacent to the first supplementary stator 1153 through the first supplementary stator 1153 to connect with the storage stator 62.

[0106] In an embodiment of the present application, when the mobile module 50 transfers the experimental battery to the stator assembly 11, the mover 12 connected to the storage stator 62 will also flow to the stator assembly 11, so that the mover 12 on the storage stator 62 is insufficient, and the storage module 60 can no longer place the experimental battery, and the mover 12 needs to be replenished on the storage stator 62.

[0107] After the mover 12 moves to the transmission stator 113, it will eventually move to connect with the return stator 115. In the embodiment of the present application, when it is necessary to supplement the mover 12 to the storage stator 62, when any one of the movers moves to connect with the first supplementary stator 1153, all movers 12 are first controlled to stop moving, and then the first supplementary stator 1153 is moved to contact with the storage stator 62 through the supplementary module 70, and then the mover 12 is controlled to move from connecting with the first supplementary stator 1153 to contacting with the storage stator 62, so as to supplement the mover 12 to the storage stator 62, and the experimental battery can be placed on the storage module 60 again. Then, the first supplementary stator 1153 is moved to the initial position through the supplementary module 70, and the mover 12 moves to transfer the battery 200 again.
