[0050] During the battery manufacturing process, the batteries need to be transported to different processing areas. On the logistics conveyor line, in order to achieve the diversion effect, the goods on the conveyor line usually need to change direction 90 degrees to change the conveying route, or, if a temporary buffering effect is required, the goods on the conveyor line usually need to be transferred to load surfaces at different heights, all of which require the use of a lifting and transferring device. In the related technology, the transfer equipment has the problem of complex structure and large size, thus occupying a large space.
[0051] The embodiment of the present application provides a transfer device, which includes a base, a transfer module and a drive module. The base has a bearing surface. The transfer module is configured to transfer the parts to be transferred. The transfer module includes a working state and a non-working state. In the working state, the transfer module is located above the bearing surface, and the weight of the parts to be transferred is borne on the transfer module.

[0052] The transfer device provided by the embodiment of the present application is provided with a transfer module to transfer the part to be transferred. In the working state, the transfer module is located above the bearing surface, and the weight of the part to be transferred is borne on the transfer module. In this way, the part to be transferred can be transferred by the transfer module. When the transfer part to be transferred is in place, the transfer module is switched to the non-working state. At this time, at least a part of the area of the transfer module is located below the bearing surface, and the weight of the part to be transferred is borne on the transfer module. In this way, the part to be transferred can be transferred to the bearing surface of the base. A driving module is provided to drive the transfer module to rotate around the second end of the transfer module along the first direction, so that the transfer module switches between the working state and the non-working state, thereby realizing the lifting of the part to be transferred. In addition, compared with the prior art, the transfer module is lifted along the height direction by a lifting mechanism to realize the lifting of the transfer module in the height direction. The driving module of the embodiment of the present application drives the transfer module to rotate to realize the switching of at least a part of the area of the transfer module between the lower and upper sides of the bearing surface, which can improve the compactness of the structure of the transfer device and reduce the occupied space.
[0053] See also Figures 1 to 8 The embodiment of the present application further provides a transfer device, which includes a second conveyor line 200 and a transfer device 100 of any embodiment of the present application. The second conveyor line 200 is configured to convey the to-be-transferred object 300 along a first direction. The transfer device 100 is configured to transfer the to-be-transferred object 300 on the second conveyor line 200 to the carrying surface 1a.
[0054] The transfer direction of the transfer device 100 may be the same as the first direction, or may be different.
[0055] The specific type of the second conveyor line 200 is not limited here, for example, it is a roller line.
[0056] Here, when the transfer device 100 is in working state, the height of the chain 22 of the transfer device 100 and the roller of the second conveyor line 200 are substantially the same or completely the same.
[0057] See also Figures 1 to 8, an embodiment of the present application provides a transfer device 100, which includes a base 1, a transfer module 2 and a drive module 3. The base 1 has a bearing surface 1a. The transfer module 2 is configured to transfer a part to be transferred 300. The transfer module 2 includes a working state and a non-working state. In the working state, the transfer module 2 is located above the bearing surface 1a, and the weight of the part to be transferred 300 is borne on the transfer module 2. In the non-working state, at least a portion of the transfer module 2 is located below the bearing surface 1a, and the weight of the part to be transferred 300 is borne on the transfer module 2. The drive module 3 is drivingly connected to the first end of the transfer module 2 along the first direction, and is configured to drive the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end of the transfer module 2 along the first direction. The drive module 3 drives the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end of the first direction to switch the transfer module 2 between the working state and the non-working state.
[0058] Here, the specific type of the object 300 to be transferred is not limited, and may be, for example, a tray, a battery, a tray containing batteries, or other objects 300 to be transferred that need to be transferred.
[0059] The base 1 has a bearing surface 1a, where the bearing surface 1a can be immovable and used to cache the bearing surface 1a of the part to be transferred 300; it can also be a movable conveyor line, and the transfer equipment 100 transfers the part to be transferred 300 on the second conveyor line 200 to the bearing surface 1a of the conveyor line, and the conveyor line continues to transport the part to be transferred 300.
[0060] Here, the conveying direction of the base 1 and the conveying direction of the second conveying line 200, that is, the first direction, can be the same or intersecting, in which case the conveying route of the transferred object 300 can be changed. Exemplarily, the conveying direction of the base 1 is perpendicular to the first direction.
[0061] The transfer module 2 is configured to transfer the to-be-transferred object 300 , that is, the transfer module 2 can transfer the to-be-transferred object 300 on the second conveyor line 200 to the carrying surface 1 a of the base 1 .
[0062] In working condition, see Figure 5 and Figure 6 The transfer module 2 is located above the carrying surface 1a, and the weight of the part 300 to be transferred is borne on the transfer module 2. At this time, the transfer module 2 can drive the part 300 to be transferred to move during the movement, thereby transferring the part 300 to be transferred on the second conveyor line 200 to the carrying surface 1a.
[0063] In non-operating state, see Figure 7 and Figure 8, at least part of the transfer module 2 is located below the carrying surface 1a, and the weight of the object 300 to be transferred is borne on the transfer module 2. At this time, the carrying surface 1a can drive the object 300 to be transferred to move during the movement, so that the object 300 to be transferred is transported to the destination through the carrying surface 1a, realizing the transfer of the object 300 to be transferred. Of course, the carrying surface 1a can also be immovable, that is, the object 300 to be transferred is cached on the carrying surface 1a.
[0064] The driving module 3 drives the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end of the first direction to switch the transfer module 2 between the working state and the non-working state. That is, the driving module 3 drives the transfer module 2 to rotate to achieve the jacking of the transfer module 2. The driving module 3 can convert the displacement in other directions into the displacement of the transfer module 2 in the height direction, which is beneficial to reduce the space occupied by the transfer equipment 100 in the height direction.
[0065] Before the transfer object 300 arrives at the transfer device 100, the first end of the transfer device 100 along the first direction is raised from a low position to a high position. At this time, the chain 22 of the transfer device 100 and the roller height of the second conveyor line 200 are substantially the same or completely the same. The transfer object 300 is transferred from the second conveyor line 200 to the carrying surface 1a under the traction of the transfer device 100. After the transfer object 300 is in place, the first end of the transfer device 100 along the first direction is lowered from a high position to a low position to achieve the transfer of the transfer object 300.
[0066] The transfer device provided in the embodiment of the present application is provided with a transfer module 2 to transfer the part 300 to be transferred. In the working state, the transfer module 2 is located above the bearing surface 1a, and the weight of the part 300 to be transferred is borne on the transfer module 2. In this way, the part 300 to be transferred can be transferred by the transfer module 2. When the part 300 to be transferred is transferred into place, the transfer module 2 is switched to the non-working state. At this time, at least part of the area of the transfer module 2 is located below the bearing surface 1a, and the weight of the part 300 to be transferred is borne on the transfer module 2. In this way, the part 300 to be transferred can be transferred to the bearing surface 1a of the base 1. The driving module 3 is provided to drive the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end of the transfer module 2 along the first direction, so that the transfer module 2 switches between the working state and the non-working state, thereby realizing the lifting of the part 300 to be transferred. In addition, compared with the prior art that lifts the transfer module 2 in the height direction through a lifting mechanism to achieve the lifting and lowering of the transfer module 2 in the height direction, the driving module 3 in the embodiment of the present application drives the transfer module 2 to rotate to achieve the switching of at least a partial area of the transfer module 2 between below and above the bearing surface 1a, which can improve the structural compactness of the transfer equipment 100 and reduce the occupied space.
[0067] It should be noted that the specific type of the driving module 3 is not limited here.
[0068] In some embodiments, see Figures 3 to 8 The driving module 3 includes a cylinder 31 and a transmission unit. The cylinder 31 drives the transmission unit by telescoping, and the transmission unit drives the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end of the first direction. The telescoping direction of the cylinder 31 is parallel to the first direction.
[0069] Here, the cylinder 31 drives the transmission unit by telescoping, that is, the cylinder 31 serves as a power source to provide power for the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end in the first direction.
[0070] The extension and contraction direction of the air cylinder 31 being parallel to the first direction means that the extension and contraction direction of the air cylinder 31 may be substantially parallel to the first direction or may be completely parallel to the first direction.
[0071] For example, by changing the installation of the cylinder 31 from vertical to horizontal, the space occupied by the transfer device 100 in the height direction can be reduced by about 70%.
[0072] In this embodiment, the telescopic direction of the cylinder 31 is parallel to the first direction, that is, the cylinder 31 is horizontally arranged, and the cylinder 31 is telescoped along the first direction. Compared with the cylinder 31 being arranged along the height direction, the horizontal arrangement of the cylinder 31 further reduces the occupied space in the height direction. In addition, the telescoped cylinder 31 along the first direction can also reduce the telescopic space occupied by the cylinder 31 in the height direction, thereby further facilitating to reduce the height of the transfer equipment 100, improve the compactness of the structure, and reduce the occupied space.
[0073] It should be noted that the specific type of the transmission unit is not limited here.
[0074] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 3 to 8 The transmission unit includes a connecting rod assembly, which includes a guide rail 32, a slider 33, a first connecting rod 34, a first rotating shaft 36 and a second rotating shaft 37. The guide rail 32 and the second rotating shaft 37 are both arranged on the base 1. The guide rail 32 extends along a first direction. The two ends of the first connecting rod 34 are respectively connected to the slider 33 and the first rotating shaft 36. The cylinder 31 drives the slider 33 to slide along the guide rail 32, and the slider 33 drives the first rotating shaft 36 to rotate around the second rotating shaft 37 through the first connecting rod 34, and during the rotation process, the relative height of the first rotating shaft 36 and the bearing surface 1a is different.
[0075] Here, the connecting rod assembly includes a guide rail 32 and a slider 33 , and the cylinder 31 drives the slider 33 to slide along the guide rail 32 , that is, the cylinder 31 drives the slider 33 to perform a linear motion.
[0076] The number of guide rails 32 is not limited here, for example, there may be one or more guide rails.
[0077] The multiple mentioned in the embodiments of the present application refers to a number of two or more than two.
[0078] Exemplarily, there are two guide rails 32, and the slider 33 slides with the two guide rails 32 along both sides in a direction perpendicular to the first direction, which is beneficial to improve the reliability and stability of the slider 33, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the transfer device 100.
[0079] The two ends of the first connecting rod 34 are respectively connected to the slider 33 and the first rotating shaft 36 , which means that the two ends of the first connecting rod 34 along the first direction are respectively connected to the slider 33 and the first rotating shaft 36 .
[0080] Here, the first connecting rod 34 is rotatably connected to the slider 33. The first connecting rod 34 is rotatably connected to the first rotating shaft 36 or fixedly connected.
[0081] The first rotating shaft 36 rotates around the second rotating shaft 37 , and during the rotation, the relative heights of the first rotating shaft 36 and the bearing surface 1 a are different, that is, during the rotation of the first rotating shaft 36 around the second rotating shaft 37 , the height of the first rotating shaft 36 also changes.
[0082] Here, the first rotating shaft 36 may be connected via a connecting member so that the first rotating shaft 36 can rotate around the second rotating shaft 37 .
[0083] In this embodiment, the transmission unit is provided with a connecting rod assembly so that the cylinder 31 drives the slider 33 to slide along the guide rail 32. The slider 33 drives the first rotating shaft 36 to rotate around the second rotating shaft 37 through the first connecting rod 34. During the rotation, the relative height of the first rotating shaft 36 and the bearing surface 1a is different, which is conducive to driving the transfer module 2 to rotate through the first connecting rod 34 and realizing the change of the height of the transfer module 2.
[0084] In some embodiments, please refer to Figures 3 to 8 The transmission unit includes a second connecting rod 35, and the two ends of the second connecting rod 35 are respectively connected to the first rotating shaft 36 and the transfer module 2. The first rotating shaft 36 rotates around the second rotating shaft 37 to drive the second connecting rod 35 to drive the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end of the transfer module 2 along the first direction.
[0085] Here, the second connecting rod 35, the transfer module 2, the first rotating shaft 36 and the second rotating shaft 37 are equivalent to a connecting rod mechanism.
[0086] In this embodiment, during the process of the first rotating shaft 36 rotating around the second rotating shaft 37, the first rotating shaft 36 drives the second connecting rod 35 to drive the transfer module 2 to rotate around the second end of the transfer module 2 along the first direction, that is, the transfer module 2 can be driven to rotate to lift the transfer module 2, thereby realizing the switching of the transfer module 2 between the working state and the non-working state.
[0087] In some embodiments, see Figures 2 to 4 The second rotating shaft 37 is rotatably disposed on the base 1. A limit member 37a is disposed on the second rotating shaft 37, and two stop members 13 are disposed on the base 1, which are respectively located on both sides of the limit member 37a. The limit member 37a rotates between the two stop members 13.
[0088] The second rotating shaft 37 is provided with a limiter 37a to limit the rotation angle of the second rotating shaft 37, so as to avoid a dead point in the rotation process of the second rotating shaft 37. The dead point refers to the position where the transmission angle of the driving module 3 is equal to 0°, the force or torque on the driven member is zero, and the connecting rod cannot drive the driven member to work. The position of the transmission unit is called a dead point, also known as a stop point. The dead point is a straight line position.
[0089] In this embodiment, the second rotating shaft 37 is provided with a limiting member 37a, and two stop members 13 are provided on the base 1, which are respectively located on both sides of the limiting member 37a, so that the limiting member 37a rotates between the two stop members 13, avoiding the second rotating shaft 37 from having a dead point during the rotation process, thereby improving the reliability of the transfer equipment 100.
[0090] It should be noted that the number of transfer modules 2 is not limited here.
[0091] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3 The number of transfer modules 2 is at least two, at least two transfer modules 2 are arranged along the second direction, and each transfer module 2 is connected to the first rotating shaft 36 through a second connecting rod 35, wherein the first direction intersects with the second direction.
[0092] The number of transfer modules 2 being at least two means that the number of transfer modules 2 is two or more.
[0093] Each transfer module 2 is connected to the first rotating shaft 36 via a second connecting rod 35 , which is beneficial to ensure the consistency of rotation of each transfer module 2 .
[0094] In this embodiment, by providing at least two transfer modules 2, it is helpful to improve the reliability of the transfer module 2 for the transfer member 300. In addition, each transfer module 2 is connected to the first rotating shaft 36 through a second connecting rod 35, which is helpful to make the rotation consistency of each transfer module 2, thereby further improving the reliability of the transfer module 2.
[0095] In some embodiments, see Figure 2 and Figure 3The transfer module 2 includes a mounting bracket 21 having a mounting space and a chain 22 rotatably disposed in the mounting space. The driving module 3 is drivingly connected to a first end of the mounting bracket 21 along a first direction. In a working state, the weight of the object 300 to be transferred is borne on the chain 22, and the chain 22 transfers the object 300 to be transferred along the first direction by rotating.
[0096] The transfer module 2 is configured to include a mounting bracket 21 and a chain 22, that is, the drive module 3 is chain-driven. The chain 22 is disposed in the mounting bracket 21, and the mounting bracket 21 protects the chain 22.
[0097] In this embodiment, the driving module 3 is drivingly connected to the first end of the mounting bracket 21 along the first direction, that is, the driving module 3 drives the transfer module 2 by driving the mounting bracket 21 .
[0098] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The base 1 includes a base body 11 and a first conveying line 12 disposed on the base body 11 , and an upper surface of the first conveying line 12 forms a bearing surface 1 a.
[0099] The base 11 is used for supporting the first conveying line 12 , the transfer module 2 and the driving module 3 .
[0100] The specific type of the base 11 is not limited here, for example, it is a mounting frame.
[0101] In this embodiment, the base 1 is provided with a first conveyor line 12, and the transfer device 100 transfers the parts to be transferred 300 on the second conveyor line 200 to the carrying surface 1a of the first conveyor line 12, and the first conveyor line 12 continues to transport the parts to be transferred 300.
[0102] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 and Figure 2 , the conveying direction of the first conveying line 12 intersects with the first direction.
[0103] Exemplarily, the conveying direction of the base 1 is perpendicular to the first direction.
[0104] In this embodiment, the conveying direction of the first conveyor line 12 intersects with the first direction, that is, the conveying direction of the first conveyor line 12 is different from the conveying direction of the second conveyor line 200. At this time, the conveying route of the transferred object 300 can be changed.
[0105] In some embodiments, see Figure 1 The transfer device includes a driving member, which is configured to simultaneously drive the second conveyor line 200 and the transfer module 2 to transport along the first direction.
[0106] The specific type of the second conveyor line 200 is not limited here, for example, it is a roller line.
[0107] The driving member is configured to simultaneously drive the second conveyor line 200 and the transfer module 2 to transmit along the first direction. Exemplarily, the sprocket of the transfer module 2 is connected to the transmission sprocket of the second conveyor line 200, and the transmission sprocket of the second conveyor line 200 drives the sprocket of the transfer module 2 when rotating, so as to realize the transfer of the object 300 to be transferred.
[0108] That is to say, the power source of the transfer module 2 comes from the second conveyor line 200, which reduces one set of power devices and reduces costs.
[0109] In a specific embodiment, the second end of the transfer module 2 along the first direction is composed of a rotating shaft, a bearing, a mounting bracket 21, a bushing, a bearing seat, etc. The rotating shaft is mounted on the inner ring of the bearing, the outer ring of the bearing is mounted in the inner hole of the fixed ear seat of the mounting bracket 21, the outer diameter of the fixed ear seat of the mounting bracket 21 is mounted on the inner wall of the bushing, the outer wall of the bushing is mounted on the bearing seat, and the bearing seat is fixed on the support of the second conveyor line 200. A sprocket is installed at one end of the rotating shaft, and the sprocket is connected to the transmission sprocket of the second conveyor line 200, driving the chain 22 of the mounting bracket 21 to rotate, so as to realize the transfer of the transferred parts 300.
[0110] In some embodiments, the number of the transfer modules 2 and the second conveyor lines 200 are both multiple, the transfer modules 2 are stacked, and the second conveyor lines 200 correspond to the transfer modules 2 one by one.
[0111] The number of transfer modules 2 is, for example, 2, 3, 4, etc., and is applied to a multi-layer conveyor line.
[0112] For example, the cylinder 31 is installed horizontally instead of vertically and applied to a three-layer conveyor line, which can reduce the space occupied by the transfer equipment in the height direction by about 800 mm.
[0113] In this embodiment, by setting up multiple transfer modules 2 and multiple second conveyor lines 200, the transfer modules 2 are stacked, thereby further improving the cumulative reduced space in the height direction, thereby further improving the structural compactness of the transfer equipment and reducing the occupied space.
