[0029] In order to have a clearer understanding of the technical features, purposes and effects of the present invention, the specific implementation methods of the present invention are now described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. In the following description, it should be understood that the directions or positional relationships indicated by "front", "back", "up", "down", "left", "right", "longitudinal", "horizontal", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", "head", "tail", etc. are based on the directions or positional relationships shown in the accompanying drawings, are constructed and operated in a specific direction, and are only for the convenience of describing the present technical solution, rather than indicating that the device or element referred to must have a specific direction, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation to the present invention.

[0030] The following is a further detailed description of the specific implementation of the present invention in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and examples. The following examples are used to illustrate the present invention, but are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention.

[0031] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The embodiment of the present application provides a flip-type bowl inverting device, including a shell 10, a conveying mechanism 30, a flipping mechanism 40 and a vibration source 50.

[0032] Specifically, a cavity 10a is defined inside the shell 10, and a silo 20 connected to the cavity 10a is provided on the lower surface of the shell 10. The conveying mechanism 30 is arranged in the cavity 10a along the first direction, and is used to convey the sagger to be inverted through the cavity 10a. The turning mechanism 40 includes a power assembly 41, a clamping assembly 42 and at least one turning disc 43. The clamping assembly 42 is arranged on the turning disc 43, and is used to clamp and convey the sagger to the position opposite to the turning disc 43. The power assembly 41 is connected to the turning disc 43, and is used to drive the turning disc 43 to turn over in the cavity 10a, so as to drive the clamping assembly 42 to rotate. The vibration source 50 is arranged on the outer side of the shell 10, and the vibration source 50 is connected to the clamping assembly 42, so that the vibration generated by the vibration source 50 can be transmitted to the clamping assembly 42.

[0033] Exemplarily, the silo 20 is used to guide the lithium battery material (such as the positive electrode material) poured out of the sagger from the cavity 10a to the outside, so as to facilitate the subsequent collection of the lithium battery material. To this end, the silo 20 in this embodiment is arranged on the lower surface of the housing 10 and is located in the middle of the lower surface of the housing 10, so that the lithium battery material can be better guided out.

[0034] Please refer to Figure 3Exemplarily, the conveying mechanism 30 is used to convey the sagger to be inverted to the position where it is clamped by the clamping assembly 42, and to send the inverted sagger out of the cavity 10a. To this end, the conveying mechanism 30 should be arranged in the cavity 10a along the first direction to ensure that the sagger can pass through the cavity 10a at a preset speed. It should be noted that additional conveying components 80 can be connected to both ends of the shell 10 to realize automatic conveying of the sagger without manually sending the sagger into the shell 10. In addition, the conveying mechanism 30 in this embodiment can be a conveying component 80 commonly used in the prior art for conveying products. It only needs to be able to realize the conveying component 80 for the sagger, and there is no limitation on this. The "first direction" mentioned above refers to the conveying direction of the sagger, that is, the length direction of the shell 10.

[0035] Exemplarily, the vibration source 50 is used to generate vibration to transmit the vibration to the clamping assembly 42. Since the clamping assembly 42 clamps the sagger, the vibration will act on the sagger when the clamping assembly 42 clamps the sagger, so that the lithium battery material adhering to the inner wall or bottom of the sagger can be dropped into the silo 20 due to the vibration, and no further manual processing is required, which is conducive to reducing labor intensity. It should be noted that the vibration source 50 can be a gas vibrator or a component that can generate vibration in the prior art, and this is not limited. However, in this embodiment, preferably, the vibration source 50 adopts a gas vibrator to achieve adaptive adjustment of the generated vibration force, vibration frequency and amplitude as needed.

[0036] It should be noted that the "at least one flip disk 43" mentioned above refers to one or more flip disks 43, which can be specifically set according to the size of the sagger. For example: if the size of the sagger is small, a flip disk 43 can be set in the cavity 10a, and a clamping assembly 42 (such as a manipulator) can be set on the flip disk 43. The transported sagger is clamped by the clamping assembly 42, and then the flip disk 43 is driven by the power member to flip, so as to turn the clamped sagger over, so as to automatically pour out the lithium battery material in the sagger without manual operation, which is conducive to reducing labor intensity. If the size of the sagger is large, two flip disks 43 can be set in the cavity 10a, and clamping assemblies 42 are set on both flip disks 43, and the sagger is clamped by the mutual cooperation of the two clamping assemblies 42, which is not limited to this.

[0037] Based on the above-mentioned technical features, the flip-type bowl-turning device uses the conveying mechanism 30 to convey the sagger to be turned to the position where the clamping assembly 42 clamps the sagger, and then uses the power assembly 41 to drive the flip plate 43 to turn over in the cavity 10a, thereby driving the sagger clamped on the clamping assembly 42 to turn over, thereby realizing the automatic bowl-turning of the sagger, without manual operation, which is conducive to reducing the labor intensity of workers. In addition, during the process of the sagger turning, the vibration source 50 is also used to generate vibration and transmit it to the clamping assembly 42, and act on the clamped sagger, so that the lithium battery material adhering to the inner wall or bottom of the sagger can be dropped into the silo 20 due to vibration, avoiding the need for further processing of the sagger in the future.

[0038] In one embodiment, there are two flip disks 43, which are a first flip disk 431 and a second flip disk 432 symmetrically arranged in the cavity 10a, and the power component 41 drives the first flip disk 431 and the second flip disk 432 to flip; the clamping component 42 includes a first clamping member 421, a second clamping member 422 and a pushing member, the first clamping member 421 and the second clamping member 422 are respectively arranged on the inner sides of the first flip disk 431 and the second flip disk 432, the pushing member is located on the outer side of the shell 10, and the power output end of the pushing member extends into the cavity 10a, and passes through the first flip disk 431 and is connected to the first clamping member 421, and the vibration source 50 is connected to the pushed member.

[0039] Exemplarily, a first flip disk 431 and a second flip disk 432 are symmetrically arranged in the cavity 10a, and a first clamping member 421 and a second clamping member 422 are respectively arranged on the inner sides of the first flip disk 431 and the second flip disk 432. When the sagger is transported to the clamping position, the pushing member pushes the first clamping member 421 to move in the direction of the second clamping member 422, so that the sagger located between the first clamping member 421 and the second clamping member 422 can be clamped, and then the first flip disk 431 and the second flip disk 432 are driven to flip by the power assembly 41, so as to drive the sagger clamped by the first clamping member 421 and the second clamping member 422 to flip, so that the lithium battery material in the sagger can be automatically poured out, replacing the traditional method of manually pouring the sagger, which is beneficial to reducing the labor intensity of workers and improving work efficiency.

[0040] It should be noted that the pusher can be a push cylinder with a push plate, and the push cylinder pushes the push plate to drive the first clamping member 421 to move closer to or away from the second clamping member 422 to achieve the clamping or loosening of the sagger. The use of the push cylinder as the pusher is only an example, and those skilled in the art can understand that any component that drives the first clamping member 421 is applicable to this embodiment.

[0041] In one embodiment, a connecting plate 60 is further included, one end of which is connected to the pusher, and one end of which is connected to the vibration source 50. In this way, when the vibration source 50 generates vibration, the connecting plate 60 transmits the vibration to the pusher, and then the pusher applies the vibration to the sagger, so that the lithium battery material adhering to the inner wall or bottom of the sagger falls into the silo 20.

[0042] In one embodiment, the first clamping member 421 includes a first clamping plate 4211 and a first limit block 4212 located at both ends of the first clamping plate 4211, the first limit block 4212 extends along the direction of the second flip disk 432, and a first clamping position is defined between the two first limit blocks 4212, the first clamping plate is connected to the power output end of the pushing member so that the first clamping plate 4211 can be movably arranged on the inner side of the first flip disk 431; and / or the second clamping member 422 includes a second clamping plate 4221 and a second limit block 4222 located at both ends of the second clamping plate 4221, the second limit block 4222 extends along the direction of the first flip disk 431, and a second clamping position is formed between the two second limit blocks 4222, and the second clamping plate 4221 is fixed on the inner side of the second flip disk 432.

[0043] In one embodiment, the power assembly 41 includes a power source 411 and a rotating shaft 412, one end of the rotating shaft 412 passes through the shell 10 and extends into the cavity 10a to be connected to the first flip disk 431 and the second flip disk 432, and one end of the rotating shaft 412 is exposed outside the shell 10 and connected to the power output end of the power source 411.

[0044] In one embodiment, the width of the cross section of the silo 20 gradually decreases in the direction away from the housing 10. In this way, the falling speed of the lithium battery material falling into the silo 20 can be accelerated to avoid material blockage.

[0045] In one embodiment, a lifting assembly 70 is further included. The lifting assembly 70 is liftably disposed below the conveying mechanism 30 and is used to block the sagger conveyed to the position of the clamping assembly 42 .

[0046] Exemplarily, the lifting assembly 70 is used to block the conveyed sagger so that the sagger can stop at the clamping position, and then the first clamping member 421 and the second clamping member 422 are used to clamp the sagger to avoid the inability to clamp the sagger due to the speed difference. It should be noted that the lifting assembly 70 can be a combination of a baffle and a cylinder, that is, the baffle is pushed up from the bottom of the conveying mechanism 30 by the cylinder to block the sagger; when the bowl is turned over, the piston rod of the cylinder is retracted so that the push plate is pulled back to the bottom of the conveying mechanism 30, so that the sagger that has been turned over is conveyed out of the cavity 10a by the conveying mechanism 30.

[0047] In one embodiment, a first induction member and a second induction member are further included, wherein the first induction member is disposed at the inlet end of the housing 10, and the second induction member is disposed on the first flip plate 431 or the second flip plate 432, and both the first induction member and the second induction member are electrically connected to the controller. When the first induction member senses the sagger, the controller controls the lifting assembly 70 to rise to block the sagger; when the second induction member senses the sagger, the controller controls the pushing member to push the first clamping member 421 close to the second clamping member 422 to clamp the sagger.

[0048] Exemplarily, the first sensing member is used to sense the sagger entering the cavity 10a, so that the lifting interval can be controlled by the controller to rise to block the sagger, and the sagger is stopped between the first clamping member 421 and the second clamping member 422; then the second sensor is used to sense that there is a sagger between the first clamping member 421 and the second clamping member 422, and the first clamping member 421 is controlled by the controller to approach the second clamping member 422 to clamp the sagger.

[0049] In one embodiment, the first sensing element and the second sensing element are both photoelectric sensors.

[0050] The above is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this technical field, several improvements and substitutions can be made without departing from the technical principle of the present invention. These improvements and substitutions should also be regarded as the protection scope of the present invention.
