[0030] In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the utility model clearer, the utility model is described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to explain the utility model and do not constitute a limitation on the utility model.

[0031] like Figure 1 As shown, in order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the utility model proposes an assembly device for a battery cell, comprising:

[0032] The material receiving component is provided with a transfer channel matching the quantity of the material 40 outputted from the output end of the previous process, and is used to transfer the material 40 after the material 40 outputted from the previous process enters the transfer channel;

[0033] A telescopic member 20, wherein the length direction of the telescopic member 20 is perpendicular to the length direction of the temporary storage channel, and is used to drive the transfer channel of the material receiving assembly to align with different temporary storage channels in the temporary storage assembly;

[0034] The temporary storage component is provided with a temporary storage channel for temporarily storing the material 40 output by the material docking component. When the storage quantity of the material 40 in the temporary storage channel meets the preset conditions, the material 40 in the temporary storage component is moved to the next process; wherein the number of the temporary storage channels is an integer multiple of the transfer channels.

[0035] Specifically, the material receiving assembly is provided with a transfer channel that matches the quantity of the output material 40 from the output end of the previous process. Each transfer channel can be a chute or an automated conveying system composed of a group of transmission belts, so as to ensure that the material 40 flows stably and in the correct direction. The transfer channel is equipped with sensors for monitoring the flow and quantity of the material 40, as well as a motor and controller for adjusting the transmission speed.

[0036] The telescopic member 20 is located below the material receiving assembly and can be telescopic in a plane perpendicular to the length direction of the temporary storage channel. The telescopic member 20 includes a central telescopic shaft and multiple connecting rods. The power source of the hydraulic cylinder, servo motor or linear drive is used to push the material receiving assembly to make precise position adjustments in the horizontal direction so as to accurately align the transfer channel with the different temporary storage channels in the temporary storage assembly.

[0037] The temporary storage component is responsible for temporarily storing the material 40. The temporary storage component has multiple temporary storage channels. The number of temporary storage channels is the same as the number of materials fed into the next process, and its number is an integer multiple of the number of transfer channels. This ensures that the materials 40 transported multiple times by the transfer channels can be placed in the temporary storage channels. Each channel is equipped with a sensor to monitor the number of materials 40 in the channel and trigger the next production stage when the predetermined conditions are met.

[0038] The material receiving assembly is aligned with the temporary storage assembly through the telescopic member 20 in the mechanism, and the telescopic axis of the telescopic member 20 is directly connected to the bottom interface of the material receiving assembly, thereby ensuring the stability of the material receiving assembly when it moves left and right.

[0039] The temporary storage component is adjacent to the material receiving component to form a linear production process. When designing the equipment, ensure that the temporary storage channel is perpendicular to the telescopic axis of the telescopic member 20.

[0040] By adopting the above technical solution, the telescopic member 20 can adjust the position of the material receiving assembly according to the specific production line layout and the material 40 requirements, thereby ensuring the alignment of the transfer channel and the temporary storage channel, and facilitating the transfer of the material 40 in the transfer channel to the temporary storage channel. This achieves a small footprint and enables the materials 40 in the front and rear processes to match each other.

[0041] In one embodiment of the present application, the material receiving assembly includes:

[0042] A support frame 12 connected to the telescopic shaft of the telescopic member 20 and capable of reciprocating along the length direction of the telescopic shaft; and

[0043] The first pull belt 13 is disposed above the support frame 12. The length direction of the first pull belt 13 is perpendicular to the length direction of the telescopic member 20. The first pull belt 13 is used to transfer the material 40 output from the output end of the previous process to the temporary storage channel.

[0044] Specifically, the support frame 12 is a solid frame structure made of metal or other hard materials to bear the load during transportation. The support frame 12 is connected to the telescopic shaft of the telescopic member 20 and reciprocates along the length direction of the telescopic shaft during transportation. The existence of the support frame 12 facilitates the positioning and installation of other components.

[0045] The first pull belt 13 is a device for conveying materials 40, and is located above the support frame 12. The operation of the pull belt is realized by a roller 14 system or a gear system, and its movement speed is controlled by an electric motor to meet the transmission requirements of the production line.

[0046] The support frame 12 is fixedly connected to the telescopic shaft of the telescopic member 20, and the telescopic shaft is used to realize the positioning movement of the support frame 12 along a specific direction. The movement of the telescopic shaft is usually realized by an electric, hydraulic or pneumatic mechanism.

[0047] The first pull belt 13 is horizontally laid above the support frame 12, and drives the material 40 to be transversely transported when the support frame 12 moves. The length direction of the pull belt is perpendicular to the length direction of the telescopic member 20, and this design facilitates the material 40 to enter different temporary storage channels.

[0048] By adopting the above technical solution, the position of the support frame 12 is accurately adjusted through the telescopic member 20, so that the first pull belt 13 on the support frame 12 can be accurately aligned with the temporary storage channel, thereby reducing the deviation and loss of the material 40 during the transportation process and improving production efficiency.

[0049] In one embodiment of the present application, the material receiving assembly further includes:

[0050] At least one guide rail 11 , the length direction of the guide rail 11 is parallel to the length direction of the telescopic member 20 , and the bottom of the support frame 12 is slidably connected to the guide rail 11 .

[0051] Specifically, the position of the guide rail 11 is fixed and can be installed on the ground or on other supporting components. The guide rail 11 is set in a direction parallel to the telescopic member 20 to ensure that the support frame 12 can move along a length direction perpendicular to the temporary storage channel.

[0052] By adopting the above technical solution, the guide rail 11 system ensures the stability of the support frame 12 and the first pull belt 13 thereon during movement, which greatly reduces the vibration or dislocation caused by the movement of the equipment and improves the accuracy of the material 40 transfer.

[0053] In one embodiment of the present application, a first U-shaped gantry 16 is connected to the first drawstring 13, a first free end of the first U-shaped gantry 16 is connected to one side of the length direction of the first drawstring 13, and a second free end of the first U-shaped gantry 16 is connected to the other side of the length direction of the first drawstring 13;

[0054] The first U-shaped gantry 16 is provided with a dividing piece 15 for dividing the first pull belt 13 into a plurality of transmission channels.

[0055] Specifically, the first U-shaped gantry 16 is a "U"-shaped structure made of metal to ensure sufficient strength and rigidity. The gantry spans above the first drawstring 13, and its two free ends are fixed to both sides of the drawstring to form a stable frame structure.

[0056] The divider 15 is a component installed on the U-shaped gantry, and its function is to divide the first pull belt 13 into multiple independent transmission channels. According to the width of the material 40 and production requirements, the divider 15 can be a fixed or adjustable baffle, roller or other suitable structure. The material and design of the divider 15 should ensure that the material 40 can flow smoothly and steadily between the transmission channels.

[0057] The two free ends of the gantry are fixedly connected to the two side edges of the drawstring to ensure the stability of the drawstring during the transmission process. The dividing pieces 15 are evenly distributed on the U-shaped gantry. According to the width requirements of different materials 40, the dividing pieces 15 can be appropriately adjusted to form transmission channels of different widths.

[0058] By adopting the above technical solution, the first U-shaped gantry 16 cooperates with the design of the dividing piece 15, so that the first drawstring 13 can meet the transmission requirements of materials 40 of various sizes and shapes, thereby improving the versatility and flexibility of the production line. The first U-shaped gantry 16 divides the drawstring into multiple channels, which can process multiple batches of materials 40 at the same time, avoiding mutual interference between the materials 40, and improving the batch processing capacity and transmission efficiency of the production.

[0059] In one embodiment of the present application, a roller 14 is provided on the dividing piece 15 along the length direction to contact with the material 40 to reduce the friction between the material 40 and the dividing piece 15 .

[0060] By adopting the above technical solution, the use of the roller 14 significantly reduces the direct friction between the material 40 and the dividing piece 15, which can not only extend the service life of the material 40 itself, but also reduce the wear of the dividing piece 15, thereby extending the service life of the dividing piece 15 and related equipment. The roller 14 can provide a smooth conveying of the material 40, avoiding jumping or jamming caused by friction during the conveying process, and ensuring the stability of the material 40 during the conveying process and the smoothness of the overall operation.

[0061] In one embodiment of the present application, a photoelectric sensor 17 for detecting the material 40 is disposed on the partition 15 near the entrance of the first drawstring 13 .

[0062] By adopting the above technical solution, the photoelectric sensor 17 can automatically detect the presence or absence of the material 40, thereby realizing automatic monitoring of the production process, reducing the need for manual monitoring, and improving the operation efficiency. By timely detecting the material 40, the start and stop of the production line can be better controlled, avoiding failures caused by the accumulation or lack of the material 40, and improving the smoothness of the production line operation.

[0063] In one embodiment of the present application, a stopper 18 is provided on the dividing member 15 near the outlet of the first draw belt 13 to limit the output of the material 40 in the transmission channel when the transmission channel is not aligned with the temporary storage channel.

[0064] By adopting the above technical solution, the stopper 18 can prevent the improper outflow of the material 40 when the transmission channel and the temporary storage channel are not properly aligned, and can avoid the loss of the material 40 and potential production failures caused by operating errors. The stopper 18 can be combined with the control system to achieve a higher level of automation and precise control, reducing the need for manual intervention and possible human errors.

[0065] In one embodiment of the present application, a limiting member for limiting the movement position of the support frame 12 is provided on one side of the telescopic member 20 .

[0066] By adopting the above technical solution, the limiter can ensure that the support frame 12 reaches a predetermined position during the movement, thereby improving the positioning accuracy of the machine and ensuring high precision of the processing or assembly work.

[0067] In one embodiment of the present application, the temporary storage component includes:

[0068] A second drawstring 31, wherein the length direction of the second drawstring 31 is the same as the length direction of the first drawstring 13;

[0069] A second U-shaped gantry 32, wherein the first free end of the second U-shaped gantry 32 is connected to one side of the second drawstring 31 in the length direction, and the second free end of the second U-shaped gantry 32 is connected to the other side of the second drawstring 31 in the length direction; the second U-shaped gantry 32 is provided with a barrier 33 for dividing the second drawstring 31 into a plurality of temporary storage channels.

[0070] Specifically, the second draw belt 31 is a belt-shaped continuous conveying device, similar to a conveyor belt. It is made of a multi-layer composite material, is wear-resistant and durable, and is intended for temporary storage and transportation of the material 40. Its length direction is consistent with the length direction of the first draw belt 13, forming a unified flow direction, so that the material 40 can be smoothly transferred from the first draw belt 13 to the second draw belt 31.

[0071] The second U-shaped gantry 32 is a U-shaped support structure, located on both sides of the second drawstring 31. Made of metal or other solid materials, the second U-shaped gantry 32 is located between the second drawstrings 31, and the barrier 33 is arranged on the second U-shaped gantry 32 to divide the second drawstring 31 into a plurality of parallel temporary storage channels for the temporary storage of the material 40.

[0072] By adopting the above technical solution, the second drawstring 31 is divided into a plurality of temporary storage channels by the blocking member 33 on the second U-shaped gantry 32 , thereby facilitating the storage of the material 40 and improving the efficiency and speed of processing the material 40 .

[0073] In one embodiment of the present application, a rolling wheel 34 is provided on the barrier member 33 along the length direction to contact the material 40 to reduce the friction between the material 40 and the barrier member 33 .

[0074] By adopting the above technical solution, the use of the rolling wheel 34 significantly reduces the direct friction between the material 40 and the barrier 33, which not only extends the service life of the material 40 itself, but also reduces the wear of the barrier 33, thereby extending the service life of the barrier 33 and related equipment.
