Figure 2 A three-dimensional view from one angle of a discharge device provided in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 3 A three-dimensional view from another angle of the discharge device provided in one embodiment of the present application. Figure 4 for Figure 1 Bottom view of the . Figures 1 to 4 The discharging device provided in the embodiment of the present application includes a tray 1 and a workpiece conveying mechanism 2.
[0046] The tray 1 is used to place the battery 100 .
[0047] refer to Figure 1 The tray 1 includes a tray body 11 and a universal rolling component 12 .
[0048] There are a plurality of universal rolling components 12 , and each universal rolling component 12 is rotatably disposed on the disk body 11 , that is, each universal rolling component 12 is disposed on the disk body 11 and can roll relative to the disk body 11 in all directions.
[0049] The universal rolling component 12 may specifically be a universal rolling ball or a universal rolling ball.
[0050] refer to Figure 1 The tray body 11 has an inlet 110 for batteries to enter. It should be understood that the inlet 110 can be used for both batteries to enter and batteries to exit.
[0051] The workpiece conveying mechanism 2 is used to convey the battery 100 to the feed port 110 of the tray body 11 , so that the battery 100 is supported by the universal rolling component 12 .
[0052] The workpiece conveying mechanism 2 may specifically be a mechanism for conveying the battery 100 via a conveyor belt or a conveyor chain.
[0053] The workpiece conveying mechanism 2 conveys the battery 100 (such as a cylindrical battery) to the feed port 110 of the tray 1. The universal rolling component 12 of the tray body 11 supports the bottom of the battery 100, and the battery 100 can slide freely in all directions in the tray 1; since the friction between the battery 100 and the tray 1 is rolling friction, the sliding resistance of the battery 100 in the tray 1 is small, and the workpiece conveying mechanism 2 will continuously convey the battery 100 to the tray 1, and the battery 100 at the back will push the battery 100 at the front, so that the battery 100 can slide freely and fill the tray 1, which can be automatically arranged neatly and improve production efficiency.
[0054] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The disk body 11 may include a bottom plate 111 and a rear stop 112 .
[0055] Each universal rolling component 12 is rotatably disposed on the bottom plate 111 , that is, each universal rolling component 12 is disposed on the bottom plate 111 and can roll relative to the bottom plate 111 in all directions.
[0056] The rear baffle 112 is disposed on the bottom plate 111 . The rear baffle 112 is used to block the battery 100 to prevent the battery 100 from falling from the bottom plate 111 .
[0057] refer to Figure 1 The direction S in which the workpiece conveying mechanism 2 conveys the batteries to the feed port 110 is inclined relative to the rear baffle 112, so that the force exerted by the rear battery 100 on the front battery 100 is also inclined relative to the rear baffle 112, with a component force parallel to the rear baffle 112 and a component force perpendicular to the rear baffle 112, which can prevent the force exerted by the rear battery 100 on the front battery 100 from being perpendicular to the rear baffle 112, and can prevent the front battery 100 from supporting the rear battery 100, thereby preventing the battery 100 from being unable to slide freely, and can ensure that the batteries 100 are always automatically arranged neatly.
[0058] In some other embodiments, the direction S in which the workpiece conveying mechanism 2 conveys the batteries toward the feed port 110 is perpendicular to the rear barrier 112 .
[0059] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The disk body 11 may further include a first side rib 113 and a second side rib 114 .
[0060] The first side rib 113 is disposed on the bottom plate 111 and is perpendicular to the rear rib 112. The first side rib 113 is used to block the battery 100 to prevent the battery 100 from falling from one side of the bottom plate 111.
[0061] The second side rib 114 is disposed on the bottom plate 111 and is perpendicular to the rear rib 112. The second side rib 114 is also used to block the battery 100 to prevent the battery 100 from falling from the other side of the bottom plate 111.
[0062] The feed port 111 is located between the first side rib 113 and the second side rib 114 , so that the battery 100 entering the tray 1 is blocked in different directions by the first side rib 113 , the second side rib 114 and the rear rib 112 , thereby preventing the battery 100 from falling from different directions.
[0063] refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The disk body 11 may further include a front guard edge 115 .
[0064] The front rib 115 is disposed on the bottom plate 111 and is parallel to the rear rib 112 .
[0065] The front rib 115 is also located between the first side rib 113 and the second side rib 114 , and the length of the front rib 115 is smaller than the rear rib 112 , so that there is a feed opening 111 between the first side rib 113 and the second side rib 114 .
[0066] The setting of the front guard 115 allows the batteries 100 entering the tray 1 to be blocked by the first side guard 113, the second side guard 114, the front guard 115 and the rear guard 112 on the left and right, front and back sides, so that the batteries 100 can be freely arranged in the entire tray 1 and the space of the tray 1 can be fully utilized.
[0067] refer to Figure 1 The workpiece conveying mechanism 2 may include a conveying section 21 and a connecting section 22 .
[0068] The conveying section 21 is used to convey the battery 100. The conveying section 21 may specifically be a mechanism for conveying the battery 100 through a conveyor belt or a conveyor chain.
[0069] The connecting section 22 is connected to the conveying section 21 and the feeding port 111 , so that the batteries located in the conveying section 21 move to the connecting section 22 , and then move from the connecting section 22 to the feeding port 111 of the tray 1 .
[0070] The connecting section 22 plays a guiding role for the battery 100 .
[0071] The central axis L of the connecting section 22 forms an angle greater than 0° and less than 90° with the conveying direction S' of the conveying section 21, and the conveying direction S' is perpendicular to the rear baffle 112 of the tray 1, so that the central axis L of the connecting section 22 is inclined relative to the rear baffle 112. Then, for the batteries 100 from the connecting section 22 to the feeding port 111 of the tray 1, the force exerted by the rear batteries 100 on the front batteries 100 is also inclined relative to the rear baffle 112, and has a component force parallel to the rear baffle 112 and a component force perpendicular to the rear baffle 112, which can prevent the force exerted by the rear batteries 100 on the front batteries 100 from being perpendicular to the rear baffle 112, and can prevent the front batteries 100 from pressing against the rear batteries 100, thereby preventing the batteries 100 from being unable to slide freely, and can ensure that the batteries 100 are always automatically arranged in order.
[0072] One end of the connecting section 22 is rotatably arranged on the conveying section 21, so that the connecting section 22 can be rotated relative to the conveying section 21 to be connected to the feed port 111. For pallets 1 of different sizes, the connecting section 22 can be connected to the feed port 111 by rotating it at different angles, which is suitable for pallets 1 of different sizes.
[0073] refer to Figure 1 The workpiece conveying mechanism 2 may further include a fixing component 23 .
[0074] The fixing member 23 is connected to the conveying section 22 and the connecting section 21 to fix the connecting section 21 to the conveying section 22 , so as to achieve stable conveyance of the battery 100 .
[0075] The fixing component 23 may be a plate-shaped structure or a rod-shaped structure.
[0076] refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 The connecting section 22 may include a bearing component 221 , a guiding component 222 and a rolling component 223 .
[0077] The guiding component 222 is disposed on the bearing component 221 and connected to the conveying section 21 and the feeding port 111 .
[0078] The guide component 222 is used to guide and block the battery 100 so that the battery 100 located in the connecting section 22 moves to the feeding port 111 of the tray 1 along the direction defined by the guide component 222 and prevents the battery 100 from falling from the connecting section 22 .
[0079] There may be a plurality of rolling components 223 , and each rolling component 223 is rotatably disposed on the bearing component 221 .
[0080] The battery 100 moves from the conveying section 21 to the connecting section 22. The rolling component 223 of the connecting section 22 supports the bottom of the battery 100. The battery 100 can slide in the connecting section 22 along the direction defined by the rolling component 223 and move along the direction defined by the guide component 222 to the feed port 111 of the tray 1, which can reduce the resistance to the movement of the battery 100.
[0081] The rolling component 223 can be a unidirectional rolling component or a universal rolling component. A unidirectional rolling component can only rotate in one direction (such as clockwise or counterclockwise); a universal rolling component can rotate in all directions.
[0082] When the rolling component 223 is a universal rolling component, the battery 100 can slide freely in all directions in the connecting section 22, which can make the movement of the battery 100 in the connecting section 22 smoother and reduce the possibility of damage to the battery 100.
[0083] In some other embodiments, the bearing component 221 and the bottom plate 111 of the tray 1 are an integral structure. In this case, the bearing component 221 is a part of the tray 1 .
[0084] The discharge device provided in the embodiment of the present application is applicable to batteries of different sizes and has a simple and compact structure, which can reduce floor space and improve production efficiency.
[0085] An embodiment of the present application further provides a battery production device, which includes the discharge device provided by any of the above embodiments.
[0086] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present application should be included in the protection scope of the present application.
