[0052] The sorting and unloading mechanism 42 includes a workbench 421, a sorting and unloading conveyor 422 arranged on the workbench 421, and a plurality of separating guide strips 423. The two separating guide strips 423 arranged opposite to each other construct a conveying channel 424 for a single battery, and a baffle 425 is provided on the side of the conveying channel 424 away from the sorting draw line. Specifically, the sorting and unloading conveyor 422 can be, for example, a roller conveyor or a belt conveyor. Preferably, in this embodiment, the sorting and unloading conveyor 422 is a roller conveyor. A plurality of separating guide strips 423 are provided on the sorting and unloading conveyor 422, and a plurality of guide rollers are provided on the separating guide strips 423.

Each conveying channel 424 extends in the x-axis direction to arrange a plurality of batteries along the x-axis direction. The batteries in the sorting and unloading mechanism 42 are grabbed to the packaging station 60 by the packaging robot 50. It is understandable that a plurality of conveying channels 424 may be provided in the sorting and unloading mechanism 42, a single battery may be arranged along the x-axis position on each conveying channel, and the packaging robot may simultaneously grab a row of batteries each time. Alternatively, two batteries may be arranged along the x-axis position on each conveying channel, and the packaging robot may simultaneously grab two rows of batteries each time.

[0053] The packing robot 50 is arranged at one side of the material storage line 40, and is used to move the blister and the battery. The packing robot 50 is provided with a mechanical arm and a gripper, and the mechanical arm can move to different positions, and then the battery and the blister are grasped to the packing station 60 by the gripper. Furthermore, the mechanical arm can be, for example, a six-axis mechanical arm with more rotation angles. The gripper can be configured to grasp 16 batteries at the same time, for example.

[0054] It is understandable that the rotation angle of the robot arm and the gripper and the number of batteries that can be grasped can be set according to actual needs, and the present disclosure does not impose specific restrictions. The specific structure of the robot arm and the gripper can refer to the content in the prior art. The packaging robot 50 can be provided with one or more, and the present disclosure does not impose specific restrictions. Multiple packaging robots 50 can perform packaging operations on multiple packaging stations 60 at the same time.

[0055] The bubble shell feeding mechanism 70 is arranged on the peripheral side of the packaging robot 50, and is used to provide bubble shells. In one embodiment, the bubble shell feeding mechanism 70 can lift the bubble shell to a specified height, and then move the bubble shell to a specified position. The packaging robot 50 then grabs the bubble shell to the packaging station 60. The specific structure of the bubble shell feeding mechanism can be found in the patent disclosure of application number CN2023107179064, and this disclosure will not be repeated.

[0056] Furthermore, along the x-axis direction, the material storage line 40 and the blister loading mechanism 70 are respectively arranged on both sides of the packaging robot 50. This arrangement can facilitate the packaging robot 50 to grab the battery and the blister, and effectively save space.

[0057] Furthermore, a plurality of packing stations 60 are provided on the peripheral side of the packing robot 50. In the present embodiment, at least two packing stations 60 are provided, for example, two, three, four, etc. The plurality of packing stations 60 are provided on the same side of the packing robot 50 and are arranged along the x-axis direction. By providing a plurality of packing stations 60, a plurality of stacking and packing operations can be performed simultaneously, greatly improving the working efficiency of the equipment.

[0058] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the packaging station 60 can also be arranged according to actual needs and is not limited to the above-mentioned layout.

[0059] Furthermore, in this embodiment, the packaging robots 50 of the two groups of packaging lines 30 are arranged adjacent to each other, and the packaging robots 50 are installed on a moving seat 51, and the moving seat 51 is used to drive the packaging robots 50 to move along the arrangement direction of the multiple packaging stations 60. The moving seat 51 may include, for example, a sliding platform, a slide rail, and a driving member, and the sliding platform is slidably installed on the slide rail and fixed to the packaging robot 50. The driving member may be, for example, a mechanism for providing power, such as a driving motor. The driving member drives the sliding platform to move along the slide rail to drive the packaging robot 50 to move, thereby expanding the grasping range of the packaging robot 50.

[0060] The pallet conveyor line 80 is used to transport the pallets, conveying the empty pallets from the loading and unloading area 81 to the packing station 60, or conveying the full pallets after stacking from the packing station 60 to the loading and unloading area 81. Specifically, the pallet conveyor line 80 is arranged on the side of the packing station 60 away from the packing robot 50.

[0061] Furthermore, the pallet conveyor line 80 includes a pallet conveying mechanism 82 for conveying along the x-axis and a pallet transfer mechanism (not shown) for conveying along the y-axis. The x-axis direction and the y-axis direction are perpendicular to each other. The pallet transfer mechanism is used to convey the pallet on the pallet conveying mechanism 82 to the packaging station 60, or to convey the pallet on the packaging station 60 to the pallet conveying mechanism 82. Specifically, the pallet conveying mechanism 82 is provided with a roller conveying mechanism to drive the pallet to move along the x-axis. The pallet transfer mechanism may include a y-axis conveying mechanism and a lifting mechanism. The y-axis conveying mechanism may be, for example, a chain conveyor belt, which is arranged below the gap between two adjacent rollers of the pallet conveying mechanism 82. When y-axis conveying is required, the y-axis conveying mechanism is driven to rise by the lifting mechanism to transport the pallet to the packaging station 60.

[0062] Furthermore, a loading and unloading area 81 is disposed at one end of the pallet conveyor line 80 along the x-axis direction, and a paper shell feeding mechanism 90 is disposed at the other end.

For details, please refer to Figure 6 , the paper shell feeding mechanism 90 may include a paperboard feeding mechanism 91, a paper folding mechanism 92, a translation mechanism 93, a lifting mechanism 94 and a suction cup mechanism 95. The paperboard feeding mechanism 91 is used to place a plurality of stacked paperboards. The paper folding mechanism 92 is used to fold the four sides of the paperboard to obtain a paper shell. The specific structure of the paper folding mechanism 92 can refer to the paper folding machine in the prior art. The translation mechanism 93 has a horizontal slide rail arranged along the x-axis direction, and the lifting mechanism 94 is slidably connected to the horizontal slide rail. The lifting mechanism 94 has a vertical slide rail arranged along the vertical direction, and the suction cup mechanism 95 is slidably connected to the vertical slide rail. The suction cup mechanism 95 is used to absorb the paperboard or paper shell, and under the drive of the translation mechanism 93 and the lifting mechanism 94, it can realize the movement in the horizontal and numerical directions. The suction cup mechanism 95 absorbs the paperboard on the paperboard feeding mechanism 91, transports it to the paper folding mechanism 92 for folding, and then absorbs the paper shell obtained after folding, and transports it to the pallet on the pallet conveying mechanism 80.

[0063] For further information, see Figure 7 The pallet conveyor line 80 transports the pallet 601 and the paper shell 602 to the packing station 60, which is provided with a packing positioning mechanism 61, which includes a positioning conveying member 62 and a lateral positioning mechanism 63.

The lateral positioning mechanism 63 can include a positioning plate and a positioning driving member, the positioning plate is arranged on the side of the bubble shell, and the positioning driving member drives the positioning plate to move horizontally to adjust the position of the bubble shell. The lateral positioning mechanism 63 can be arranged on the side of the bubble shell along the x-axis direction and the side of the bubble shell along the y-axis direction.

[0064] For further information, see Figure 1The battery packaging line also includes an NG conveyor line 100 for receiving and conveying unqualified batteries and / or blister shells. The NG conveyor line 100 moves along the y-axis direction and is arranged above the pallet conveyor line 80. Specifically, the NG conveyor line 100 is arranged on one side of the sorting and unloading mechanism 42 along the y-axis direction. The NG conveyor line 100 can be arranged above the pallet conveyor line 80 through a mounting frame. Through this arrangement, it will not interfere with the processes such as pallet conveying, stacking and packaging, and can effectively save the space occupied by the equipment.

[0065] The working process of the battery packaging line provided in this embodiment is as follows:

[0066] The battery enters the annular sorting mechanism 20 from the incoming material line 10, and the single battery is sorted by the sorting mechanism 20. According to the grade of the battery, the battery is input into the sorting belt line 41 of the corresponding gear. The sorting belt line 41 transports the battery 604 of the same gear to the sorting unloading mechanism 42. The unqualified battery is input into the battery NG belt 15 on both sides of the incoming material line 10 through the annular sorting mechanism 20.

[0067] Empty pallets 601 are loaded from loading and unloading area 81 and transported to one end of carton feeding mechanism 90 through pallet conveyor line 80, and carton feeding mechanism 90 transfers carton 602 to empty pallet 601. Pallet conveyor line 80 drives pallet 601 and carton 602 to packing station 60.

[0068] The blister 603 is automatically loaded from the blister loading mechanism 70. After loading, the packaging robot 50 grabs the blister 603 and places it on the paper shell 602, then grabs the battery in the sorting unloading mechanism 42 and puts it into the blister 603. After the blister 603 is full, the process of grabbing the blister 603 and the battery 604 is repeated until the number of layers of the stacked blister 603 reaches the predetermined requirement, that is, a full pallet is obtained, and the full pallet is transported to the loading and unloading area 81 for unloading through the pallet conveyor line 80.

[0069] When the packaging robot 50 grabs the battery or the blister, if it encounters an error such as being unable to place the battery or the blister, the battery or the blister is placed on the NG conveyor line 100 .

[0070] The above battery packaging line has the following advantages:

[0071] 1. The layout of the incoming material line 10, the sorting mechanism 20, the material storage line 40, the packaging robot 50 and other equipment is reasonable, which not only ensures the smooth operation of the entire packaging process, but also avoids space waste, and the overall space occupation of the equipment is small.

[0072] 2. Automatic loading of batteries, pallets, paper shells, and blister shells is realized, which greatly improves production efficiency. There is no need for manual entry into the operation area, which reduces safety hazards and ensures the safety of operators.

[0073] 3. The sorting mechanism 20 is arranged in a ring shape, and can be connected to the incoming material line 10, the storage line 40 and the battery NG pull belt 15 at the same time, occupying a small space. Not only can batteries of different gears be input into different packaging lines 30 for graded packaging, but unqualified batteries can also be output through the battery NG pull belts 15 on both sides, which is extremely efficient and convenient.

[0074] 4. The assembly line is provided with a plurality of packing stations 60. Pallets are transported to different packing stations 60 through pallet conveyor lines 80, and the packed full pallets are output. The packing robot 50 and the pallet conveyor line 80 do not need to stop and wait, and the equipment efficiency is greatly improved.

[0075] 5. The assembly line is equipped with an NG conveyor line 100, which can realize the output of NG batteries or blister shells to ensure packaging efficiency and yield. By raising the NG conveyor line above the pallet conveyor line 80, the layout is further optimized and the space occupation is reduced.
