Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery cell production, in particular to battery cell transport and loading equipment and a battery cell transport and loading system. Background Art

[0002] In the process of producing solar cells, the cells are placed in boats for circulation and processing. The production process of solar cells involves multiple processes. When processing cells with specific processes, the cells need to be placed in specific boats. For example, when laser etching is performed, the cells are placed in a special boat; when boron diffusion is performed, the cells are placed in another special boat. Therefore, in the process of producing solar cells, it is necessary to transfer cells in one boat to another boat.

[0003] At present, there are battery transfer and loading devices that transfer battery cells from one container to another container. The process of transferring battery cells from one container (one of the boat and the flower basket) to another container (the other of the boat and the flower basket) by these battery transfer and loading devices is usually as follows: first, the first container is flipped from a vertical state to a horizontal state, and then the first top sheet is raised and passed through the first container to lift up the battery cells in the first container, and then the lifted battery cells are grasped by a suction cup unit containing multiple suction cups, and then the suction cup unit is horizontally moved to the top of the second container, and then the second top sheet is raised and passed through the second container in a horizontal state, and the suction cup unit releases the battery cells to place the battery cells in the second top sheet, and then the second top sheet is lowered to place the battery cells in the second container. In this process, the battery cells are first transferred from the first container to the first top sheet, then from the first top sheet to the suction cup unit, then from the suction cup unit to the second top sheet, and then from the second top sheet to the second container. In other words, in this battery cell transfer and loading device, the battery cells need to be transferred multiple times between the container, the top sheet (including the first top sheet and the second top sheet) and the suction cup unit to transfer the battery cells from one container to another. The battery cells are at risk of being damaged during each transfer process, and multiple transfers will increase the probability of battery cell damage and reduce the yield of the battery cells.

[0004] In order to solve the above problems, when designing a battery loading and transporting device for transferring battery cells in one boat to another boat, it can be considered to transfer the battery cells only between the boat and a top sheet, thereby reducing the number of times the battery cells are transferred and reducing the probability of battery cell damage. Specifically, the top sheet is firstly made to enter the first boat to receive the battery cells in the first boat, the top sheet is made to descend together with the battery cells and leave the first boat, and finally the top sheet is made to push the battery cells into the second boat. However, if the thickness of a battery cell is much smaller than the width of the space on the top sheet for accommodating a battery cell, then after the top sheet leaves the first boat together with the battery cell, the battery cell will be tilted greatly under the action of gravity, resulting in the top sheet being unable to push the battery cell into the second boat, and the transfer and loading of the battery cell cannot be completed. Utility Model Content

[0005] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a battery cell transfer and loading equipment and a battery cell transfer and loading system to address the above problems, which can transfer battery cells of different thicknesses.

[0006] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:

[0007] A battery cell transfer loading device, used for transferring battery cells in a first boat to a second boat, comprising:

[0008] frame;

[0009] The boat clamping device comprises a boat clamping mechanism and a first supporting sheet structure, wherein the boat clamping mechanism is rotatably arranged on a frame, the boat clamping mechanism has a loading and unloading state, and the first supporting sheet structure is movably arranged on the boat clamping mechanism, so that in the loading and unloading state, the first supporting sheet structure extends out of the boat clamping mechanism to restrict the battery sheet from being separated from the boat, or retracts into the boat clamping mechanism to allow the battery sheet to be separated from the boat;

[0010] A first connecting member is liftably connected to the frame; and

[0011] The top sheet member is rotatably connected to the first connecting member, and acts on the battery cell to support the battery cell to leave the first boat or push the battery cell into the second boat; a plurality of third accommodating spaces are provided on the top sheet member, and each third accommodating space is used to accommodate a battery cell; when the boat clamping mechanism is in a loading and unloading state, the top sheet member and the boat clamping mechanism are opposite to each other.

[0012] The battery cell transport and loading equipment has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0013] By rotating the top sheet at different angles, the battery cell transporting and loading equipment can transport battery cells of different thicknesses.

[0014] In one embodiment, the top sheet is vertically arranged so that the third accommodating space faces upward, and the first connecting member is lifted and lowered along the vertical direction. When the boat clamping mechanism is in a loading and unloading state, the top sheet is located directly below the boat clamping mechanism.

[0015] With such arrangement, when the first boat held by the boat clamping mechanism is turned to a horizontal state, the first accommodation space faces directly downward and is directly opposite to the third accommodation space. Afterwards, the top sheet is raised so that the top sheet enters the first boat to hold the battery cell; then, the first supporting sheet structure is retracted back into the boat clamping mechanism, and the top sheet is reset, so that the top sheet can hold the battery cell and leave the first boat together. After the first boat is replaced with the second boat, the second accommodation space faces directly downward and is directly opposite to the third accommodation space, so that the top sheet is raised again, so that the battery cell can be pushed into the second accommodation space; then, the first supporting sheet structure is extended out of the boat clamping mechanism, and the top sheet is reset, so that the battery cell can remain in the second boat.

[0016] In one of the embodiments, the battery cell transport loading equipment further includes a first power output member, which is liftably connected to the first connecting member and abuts against the outer bottom side of the top sheet.

[0017] With such arrangement, the first power output member is raised or lowered, so that the top sheet member can be rotated, thereby adjusting the tilt direction of the battery sheet in the top sheet member.

[0018] In one embodiment, the battery cell transport loading equipment also includes a first power output member and a transmission rod. The first power output member is liftably connected to the first connecting member, and both ends of the transmission rod are rotatably connected to the first power output member and the top sheet member respectively.

[0019] With such arrangement, the first power output member is raised or lowered, which can drive the transmission rod and the top sheet member to rotate, thereby adjusting the tilt direction of the battery sheet in the top sheet member.

[0020] In one embodiment, the first power output member is threadedly connected to the first connecting member, and a limiting groove is provided at the bottom of the first power output member; the battery cell transfer and loading equipment also includes a driving motor, the seat of the driving motor is fixed to the first connecting member, and the output shaft of the driving motor is conformally adapted to the limiting groove and is located in the limiting groove to drive the first power output member to rotate.

[0021] With such arrangement, the first power output member can be driven to rise and fall by the driving motor.

[0022] In one embodiment, the boat clamping mechanism includes a boat supporting platform and a boat clamping structure, the boat supporting platform is rotatably arranged on the frame, the boat clamping structure includes a second power output member and a boat clamping member, the second power output member is slidably arranged on the bottom side of the boat supporting platform; the boat clamping member is connected to the second power output member, and there are two boat clamping members and two second power output members, which are arranged one by one, and the two boat clamping members are arranged opposite to each other.

[0023] With such arrangement, the two second driving components drive the two boat clamping members to approach each other until the two boat clamping members abut against two sides of the boat base, thereby clamping the boat.

[0024] In one embodiment, the first supporting piece structure is arranged on the same side of the two boat clamping members, and the first supporting piece structure includes two supporting pieces, and the two supporting pieces are arranged opposite to each other and are rotatably connected to the two boat clamping members respectively.

[0025] With such arrangement, the space between the two supporting pieces can be passed through by the top piece, and the two supporting pieces can be rotated to contact the battery cells in the boat clamped by the two boat clamping pieces, so as to support the battery cells in the boat. Before clamping the boat in the boat clamping device, or before taking the boat out of the boat clamping device, the two supporting pieces can be rotated away from each other to a position where they will not contact the battery cells, so as to prevent friction between the supporting pieces and the battery cells and damage to the battery cells.

[0026] In one embodiment, the boat clamping device also includes a third connecting member, which is rotatably disposed on the frame; the boat clamping device includes two boat clamping mechanisms, which are respectively used to clamp the first boat and the second boat, and the boat supporting platforms of the two boat clamping mechanisms are fixed to the third connecting member in sequence along a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the boat supporting platforms; the first supporting plate structure is arranged on the boat clamping mechanism for clamping the first boat; the boat clamping device also includes a second supporting plate structure, which is arranged on the boat clamping mechanism for clamping the second boat, so as to support the battery cells in the second boat when the boat clamping mechanism for clamping the second boat is in a loading and unloading state; when both boat clamping mechanisms are in a loading and unloading state, the boat clamping mechanism for clamping the second boat is located below the boat clamping mechanism for clamping the first boat.

[0027] In this way, the battery cell follows the top sheet member to enter the second accommodating space from top to bottom. Regardless of whether the width of the third accommodating space is much larger than the thickness of the battery cell, and regardless of whether the battery cell is tilted to a large extent, the lower end of each battery cell is always aligned with the corresponding second accommodating space, and each battery cell can smoothly enter the second accommodating space from top to bottom without being blocked by the limiting teeth in the second boat. Moreover, the battery cell moves from top to bottom toward the second boat. Compared with the battery cell moving from bottom to top toward the second boat, the battery cell will not be damaged by the compression of the top sheet member and the limiting teeth. In addition, in the process of completing a battery cell transfer and loading, it is only necessary to flip a boat clamping device twice (first flip once, and then flip it in the opposite direction after the battery cell enters the second accommodating space, so that the boat clamping device is reset and the first boat and the second boat are taken out), and the top sheet member only needs to rise once and fall once, which can shorten the time to complete the battery cell transfer and loading, and improve the efficiency of the battery cell transfer and loading.

[0028] In one of the embodiments, the battery cell transfer and loading equipment also includes a switching table, which can be movably arranged on the frame; two boat clamping devices are provided, and a loading and unloading position is provided on the frame, and the boat clamping device and the top piece load and unload the battery cells at the loading and unloading position, and the two boat clamping devices can be placed in the loading and unloading position successively through the movable switching table.

[0029] Such an arrangement can shorten the time to complete the transfer and loading of battery cells and improve the efficiency of the transfer and loading of battery cells.

[0030] The utility model also provides a battery cell transport and loading system, the battery cell transport and loading system comprising:

[0031] The above-mentioned battery cell transfer and loading equipment;

[0032] a placing table, spaced apart from the frame or fixed to the frame, for placing the first boat and the second boat; and

[0033] The transport mechanism is spaced apart from the frame or fixed to the frame, and can transport the first boat from one of the placing table and the boat clamping device to the other, and can transport the second boat from one of the placing table and the boat clamping device to the other.

[0034] Because the battery cell transfer and loading system includes the above-mentioned battery cell transfer and loading equipment, the battery cell transfer and loading system has the technical effect of the above-mentioned battery cell transfer and loading equipment.

[0058] See also Figure 1 The first boat 400 is a boat for loading battery cells in the process of processing battery cells with the former process, and the second boat 500 is a boat for loading battery cells in the process of processing battery cells with the latter process. The first boat 400 is provided with a plurality of first accommodation spaces, each of which is used to accommodate a battery cell. The second boat 500 is provided with a plurality of second accommodation spaces, each of which is used to accommodate a battery cell. After processing the battery cells with the former process and before processing the battery cells with the latter process, the battery cells in the first boat 400 need to be transferred to the second boat 500.

[0059] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2 The utility model first provides a battery cell transfer loading device 100, which is used to transfer the battery cells in the first boat 400 to the second boat 500. The battery cell transfer loading device 100 includes a frame 1 and a boat clamping device 2. The boat clamping device 2 includes a boat clamping mechanism 21. When clamping the boat, the boat is first placed in the boat clamping mechanism 21 in a vertical state, and then the structure for clamping the boat on the boat clamping mechanism 21 is moved to clamp and fix the boat.

[0060] The boat clamping mechanism 21 is rotatably arranged on the frame 1, so that the boat clamped by the boat clamping mechanism 21 can be turned over to a horizontal state or a state close to the horizontal state by turning over the boat clamping mechanism 21. It should be noted that when the boat is turned over 10° to reach a horizontal state, it begins to enter a state close to the horizontal state. When the boat is in a horizontal state or a state close to the horizontal state, the boat clamping mechanism 21 clamping the boat is in a loading and unloading state. At this time, if there is no structure to hold the battery cells in the boat, the battery cells will fall off the boat under the action of gravity.

[0061] In order to control the timing of the battery cell leaving the boat, the boat clamping device 2 further includes a first support structure 22. The first support structure 22 is movably arranged on the boat clamping mechanism 21, so that in the loading and unloading state, the first support structure 22 extends out of the boat clamping mechanism 21 to support the battery cell and limit the battery cell from being separated from the boat, or retracts into the boat clamping mechanism 21 to allow the battery cell to fall and separate the battery cell from the boat.

[0062] The battery cell transport loading device 100 also includes a top sheet device 3, which includes a first connecting member 32 and a top sheet member 31. The first connecting member 32 is connected to the frame 1 in a liftable manner, and the top sheet member 31 is rotatably connected to the first connecting member 32. The top sheet member 31 acts on the battery cell to support the battery cell to leave the first boat 400 or push the battery cell into the second boat 500. Specifically, a plurality of third accommodating spaces are provided on the top sheet member 31, and each third accommodating space is used to accommodate a battery cell. When the boat clamping mechanism 21 is in a loading and unloading state, the top sheet member 31 and the boat clamping mechanism 21 are opposite to each other.

[0063] If the thickness of the battery cells in the first boat 400 is only slightly smaller than the width of the third accommodating space, the battery cell transfer loading device 100 can transfer the battery cells in the first boat 400 to the second boat 500 in the following steps:

[0064] S100. The first boat 400 carrying the battery cells is clamped in the boat clamping device 2, and the boat clamping device 2 is turned over so that the first accommodating space and the third accommodating space are opposite, and the first supporting structure 22 supports the battery cells in the first boat 400;

[0065] S200. The first connecting member 32 is raised so that the top piece 31 enters the first boat 400 to hold the battery cell;

[0066] S300. Drive the first support sheet structure 22 to retract the boat clamping mechanism 21 and reset the top sheet member 31 so that the top sheet member 31 holds the battery sheet together and leaves the first boat 400;

[0067] S400. The first boat 400 located in the boat clamping mechanism 21 is replaced with the second boat 500, and the second accommodating space is opposite to the third accommodating space;

[0068] S500. Raise the first connecting member 32 to push the battery cell into the second accommodating space;

[0069] S600 . Drive the first support sheet structure 22 to extend out of the boat clamping mechanism 21 and reset the top sheet member 31 . The battery cells are blocked by the first support sheet structure 22 and remain in the second boat 500 .

[0070] If the thickness of the battery cells in the first boat 400 is much smaller than the width of the third accommodation space, then step T100 is added between step S100 and step S200, and step T200 is added between step S400 and step S500, so that the battery cells in the first boat 400 can be transferred to the second boat 500 to complete the transfer and loading of the battery cells. Steps T100 and T200 are respectively as follows:

[0071] T100. Rotate the top piece 31 along the first rotation direction so that each battery cell in the first boat 400 enters the corresponding third accommodation space and tilts in a consistent direction;

[0072] T200. Rotate the top piece 31 in a direction opposite to the first rotation direction, so that the inclination direction of each battery cell in the top piece 31 is the same as the direction of the second accommodating space.

[0073] It can be understood that for battery cells of different thicknesses, the top sheet 31 rotates at different angles in steps T100 and T200.

[0074] In summary, the battery cell transport and loading equipment 100 is capable of transporting battery cells of different thicknesses.

[0075] Moreover, by using the battery cell transfer loading device 100 to transfer the battery cells in the first boat 400 to the second boat 500, the battery cells only need to be transferred once between the first boat 400 and the top piece 31, and once between the top piece 31 and the second boat 500, for a total of two transfers, which reduces the number of transfers of the battery cells, reduces the probability of damage to the battery cells, and can improve the yield of the battery cells.

[0076] In addition, the battery cell transfer and loading equipment 100 omits the suction cup unit and the structure for driving the suction cup unit to move horizontally, which simplifies the size of the battery cell transfer and loading equipment 100 and reduces the use cost of the battery cell transfer and loading equipment 100.

[0077] It can be understood that in order to enable multiple battery cells to be transferred together between the first boat 400, the second boat 500 and the top piece 31, the first accommodation space, the second accommodation space and the third accommodation space are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. Usually, the multiple first accommodation spaces are arranged at equal intervals, and the multiple second accommodation spaces are also arranged at equal intervals. Therefore, the multiple third accommodation spaces on the top piece 31 are also arranged at equal intervals. Of course, in some embodiments, due to special needs, the multiple first accommodation spaces are arranged at non-equal intervals. In order to ensure that the first accommodation space, the second accommodation space and the third accommodation space are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, the multiple third accommodation spaces are also arranged at non-equal intervals.

[0078] See also Figure 3 The second boat 500 is provided with at least four limiting tooth groups 5011 distributed at the four corners of the same rectangle, each limiting tooth group 5011 includes a plurality of limiting teeth 50111 arranged at intervals, a second containing groove 50112 is formed between two adjacent limiting teeth 50111 in each limiting tooth group 5011, and the second containing grooves 50112 in any two limiting tooth groups 5011 are arranged one by one to form a second containing space. Figure 2Typically, the first boat 400 and the second boat 500 have the same structure, and a first receiving groove is formed between two adjacent limiting teeth in each limiting tooth group on the first boat 400. The first receiving grooves in any two limiting tooth groups are arranged one by one to form a first receiving space.

[0079] See also Figure 4 The top piece 31 includes a top piece portion 311 and a top tooth group 312. The top tooth group 312 includes a plurality of top teeth 3121 arranged at intervals. The top teeth 3121 are arranged at the top end of the top piece portion 311. Two adjacent top teeth 3121 in the top tooth group 312 and the top side of the top piece portion 311 together enclose a third receiving groove 3122.

[0080] See also Figure 4 , the top teeth 3121 are cylindrical. Two top sheet parts 311 are provided, and two top tooth groups 312 are provided. The two top sheet parts 311 are spaced apart and fixed together by a centering component. The top sides of the two top sheet parts 311 are flush, and the two top tooth groups 312 are respectively provided on the top sides of the two top sheet parts 311. The third receiving groove 3122 surrounded by one top tooth group 312 and the top sheet part 311 is arranged one-to-one with the third receiving groove 3122 surrounded by the other top tooth group 312 and the top sheet part 311, and a third receiving space for receiving a battery cell is formed. In this way, the battery cell can be stably accommodated, and the contact area between the battery cell and the top sheet part 31 can be reduced, thereby preventing the battery cell from being subjected to large friction. In other embodiments, the top teeth 3121 are plate-shaped, and the top piece 31 only includes a top piece portion 311 and a top tooth group 312. Along the width direction of the top piece portion 311, the size of the top teeth 3121 is larger, and one top tooth group 312 can stably accommodate the battery cell.

[0081] In some embodiments, the boat clamping mechanism 21 can be rotated by manually rotating the boat clamping mechanism 21. In these embodiments, the boat clamping device 2 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the frame 1 is provided with a fixing structure for fixing the boat clamping mechanism 21. After the worker manually rotates the boat clamping mechanism 21 to a suitable position, the fixing structure is used to fix the boat clamping mechanism 21. Figure 5 In other embodiments, in order to automatically control the rotation of the boat clamping mechanism 21, the battery cell transport loading device 100 further includes a boat turning mechanism 5 provided on the frame 1. The boat turning mechanism 5 has a second rotating shaft 51 capable of outputting rotational motion, and the boat clamping device 2 is fixedly provided on the second rotating shaft 51. In this way, when the second transmission shaft rotates, the boat clamping device 2 is driven to rotate, thereby turning over the boat clamped by the boat clamping device 2.

[0082] See also Figure 5The boat turning mechanism 5 further includes a second transmission member 53 and a fifth driving assembly 52. ​​The fifth driving assembly 52 includes a fifth seat body 521 and a fifth power output member 522. The fifth seat body 521 is rotatably disposed on the frame 1, and the fifth power output member 522 is slidably connected to the fifth seat body 521. The second transmission member 53 is rotatably connected to the fifth power output member 522 and is fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 51. The second rotating shaft 51 is rotatably disposed on the frame 1. Figure 5 In the embodiment, the first boat 400 is in a horizontal state and the second boat 500 is in a vertical state. Figure 5 The two boat turning mechanisms 5 are in different states. Figure 5 From the states of the two boat turning mechanisms 5, it can be seen that: when the fifth power output member 522 slides, the fifth seat body 521 rotates relative to the frame 1, the second transmission member 53 rotates relative to the fifth power output member 522 and drives the second rotating shaft 51 to rotate, thereby driving the boat clamping mechanism 21 to rotate, thereby turning the boat clamped by the boat clamping mechanism 21.

[0083] In some embodiments, the fifth driving assembly 52 is a linear module, the fifth seat body 521 is a slide rail of the linear module, and the fifth power output component 522 is a slide table of the linear module.

The boat supporting platform 211 is fixed to the second rotating shaft 51, and the boat clamping structure 212 is arranged on the boat supporting platform 211. The boat clamping structure 212 includes two boat clamping members 2121 arranged opposite to each other. The two boat clamping members 2121 can be close to each other or away from each other. After placing the boat on the boat supporting platform 211, the two boat clamping members 2121 can be close to each other to clamp the boat.

[0085] See also Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The boat clamping structure 212 includes a second driving assembly 213, and the second driving assembly 213 includes a second power output member 2132. The second power output member 2132 is slidably disposed on the bottom side of the boat supporting platform 211, and the sliding direction of the second power output member 2132 is perpendicular to the thickness direction of the boat supporting platform 211. In some embodiments, the boat clamping member 2121 is fixed to the second power output member 2132. The second driving assembly 213 is also provided with two and is arranged one-to-one with the boat clamping member 2121. In this way, the two second driving assemblies 213 drive the two boat clamping members 2121 to approach each other until the two boat clamping members 2121 abut against the two sides of the boat base, so that the boat can be clamped.

[0086] See also Figures 6 to 10In other embodiments, the boat clamping member 2121 is movably connected to the second power output member 2132, and the boat clamping member 2121 can move along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211. The second drive assembly 213 is also provided with two and is arranged one-to-one with the boat clamping member 2121. In this way, by moving the two boat clamping members 2121 along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211 at the same time, the positions of the two boat clamping members 2121 can be changed, thereby adjusting the clamping position. According to the thickness of the base of the clamped boat, the two boat clamping members 2121 are synchronously moved along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211 to the optimal clamping position or near the optimal clamping position, and then the two second drive assemblies 213 drive the two boat clamping members 2121 to move toward each other until the two boat clamping members 2121 abut against the two sides of the boat base, so that the boat can be stably clamped.

[0087] See also Fig. 9 and Fig.10 The second driving assembly 213 also includes a second seat body 2131, which is fixed to the bottom side of the boat support platform 211, and a second power output member 2132 is slidably connected to the second seat body 2131, and the second power output member 2132 slides relative to the second seat body 2131 along the horizontal direction. In this way, the second power output member 2132 slides relative to the second seat body 2131, which can drive the boat clamping member 2121 to move horizontally. In other embodiments, the second power output member 2132 can also directly form a sliding pair with the boat support platform 211, and the sliding direction of the sliding pair is along the horizontal direction. In these embodiments, the boat support platform 211 plays the role of both carrying the boat and the role of the second seat body 2131.

[0088] In some embodiments, the second drive assembly 213 is a cylinder, the second seat 2131 is a cylinder body, and the second power output member 2132 is a piston rod of the cylinder. In other embodiments, the second drive assembly 213 is a linear module, the second seat 2131 is a slide rail of the linear module, and the second power output member 2132 is a slide table of the linear module.

[0089] See also Figure 6 , Figures 8 to 10 The boat clamping mechanism 21 further includes a third driving assembly 214, which includes a third power output member, which is connected to the second power output member 2132 and can move along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211. The boat clamping member 2121 is fixed to the third power output member, and two third driving assemblies 214 are provided and are arranged one-to-one with the boat clamping members 2121. In this way, the lifting and lowering of the third power output member can drive the boat clamping member 2121 to move along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211, thereby adjusting the position of the boat clamping member 2121.

[0090] See also Figure 6 , Figures 8 to 10The third driving assembly 214 further includes a third seat body 2141, which is fixed to the second power output member 2132, and the third power output member is slidably connected to the third seat body 2141, and the third power output member slides relative to the third seat body 2141 along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211. In this way, the third power output member slides relative to the third seat body 2141, and the boat clamping member 2121 can be driven to move along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211, thereby adjusting the position of the boat clamping member 2121.

[0091] In some embodiments, the third drive assembly 214 is a cylinder, the third seat 2141 is a cylinder body of the cylinder, and the third power output is a piston rod of the cylinder. In other embodiments, the third drive assembly 214 is a linear module, the third seat 2141 is a slide rail of the linear module, and the third power output is a slide table of the linear module.

[0092] In other embodiments, the boat clamp 2121 may also directly form a sliding pair with the second power output member 2132 , and the sliding direction of the sliding pair is along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211 , which can also enable the boat clamp 2121 to move along the thickness direction of the boat support platform 211 .

[0094] See also Figures 6 to 10 In order to facilitate the fixing of the third seat body 2141 and the second power output member 2132 together, the boat clamping mechanism 21 further includes a second connecting member 215, the second connecting member 215 is fixedly arranged on the second power output member 2132, and the third seat body 2141 is fixedly arranged on the second connecting member 215. Two second connecting members 215 are provided and are arranged one-to-one with the second power output member 2132. Preferably, the second connecting member 215 is a plate-shaped body.

[0095] See also Fig.10The second driving assembly 213 also includes a guide structure 2133, which includes a guide sleeve 21332 and a guide member 21331. The guide sleeve 21332 is fixed to the bottom side of the boat support platform 211 and is provided with a guide hole that matches the guide member 21331. The guide member 21331 is fixed to the third seat body 2141, penetrates the guide hole, and is parallel to the second power output member 2132. In this way, the matching relationship between the guide member 21331 and the guide hole plays a guiding role, which can guide and restrict the second power output member 2132 when it moves horizontally, so as to ensure the accuracy and stability of the horizontal movement of the second power output member 2132.

[0096] See also Fig.10 , the guide member 21331 is a cylinder, and the guide hole is a circular hole. In other embodiments, the guide member 21331 may also be a columnar body of other shapes, and the guide hole may be a hole of other shapes, for example, the guide member 21331 may be a triangular prism or a square prism, and correspondingly, the guide hole may be a triangular hole or a square hole.

[0097] Preferably, the first driving member includes two guide structures 2133, and the two guide structures 2133 are respectively located on both sides of the second power output member 2132. This is conducive to enhancing the guiding effect and improving the accuracy and stability of the horizontal movement of the second power output member 2132.

[0098] More preferably, the two guide structures 2133 are symmetrically arranged about the second power output member 2132. This is conducive to enhancing the guiding effect and improving the accuracy and stability of the horizontal movement of the second power output member 2132.

[0099] See also Figures 6 to 10 , the first support structure 22 is arranged on the same side of the two boat clamping members 2121. In this way, when moving in a specific direction (such as Figure 7 When the boat clamping device 2 is turned over (in the clockwise direction in FIG), the first supporting structure 22 is located below the boat clamped by the boat clamping mechanism 21, thereby supporting the battery cells in the boat and preventing the battery cells from leaving the boat.

[0100] See also Figures 6 to 10 The first support sheet structure 22 includes two support sheet members 221, which are arranged opposite to each other and are rotatably connected to the two boat clamping members 2121. In this way, the space between the two support sheet members 221 can be used for the top sheet member 31 to pass through. The two support sheet members 221 are rotated to contact the battery cells in the boat clamped by the two boat clamping members 2121, so as to support the battery cells in the boat. Before the boat is clamped in the boat clamping device 2, or before the boat is taken out of the boat clamping device 2, the two support sheet members 221 can be rotated away from each other to a position where they will not contact the battery cells, so as to prevent the friction between the support sheet members 221 and the battery cells from damaging the battery cells.

[0101] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 , the support piece 221 includes a first rotating shaft 2212, and the first rotating shaft 2212 is rotatably connected to the boat clamping piece 2121. The first support piece structure 22 also includes a fourth driving assembly 222, and the fourth driving assembly 222 includes a fourth seat body 2221, a fourth power output member 2222 and a first transmission member 2223. The fourth seat body 2221 is rotatably connected to the boat clamping piece 2121, and the fourth power output member 2222 is slidably connected to the fourth seat body 2221. The first transmission member 2223 is rotatably connected to the fourth power output member 2222 and fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 2212. In this way, when the fourth power output member 2222 slides, the fourth seat body 2221 rotates relative to the boat clamping piece 2121, and the first transmission member 2223 rotates relative to the fourth power output member 2222 and drives the first rotating shaft 2212 to rotate, so that the support piece 221 can rotate.

[0102] In some embodiments, the fourth seat body 2221 is a cylinder body of a cylinder, and the fourth power output member 2222 is a piston rod of the cylinder. In other embodiments, the fourth seat body 2221 is a slide rail of a linear module, and the fourth power output member 2222 is a slide table of a linear module.

[0103] See also Figure 7 , the base of the boat is usually rectangular. Figures 7 to 9 The boat support platform 211 is provided with a positioning member 2111, one side of the positioning member 2111 is a positioning side 21111, the positioning side 21111 is in a plane shape, and the side of each boat clamping member 2121 facing the other boat clamping member 2121 is a boat clamping side 21211, the boat clamping side 21211 is in a plane shape and perpendicular to the positioning side 21111. In this way, after placing the boat on the boat support platform 211, one side of the boat base is close to the positioning side 21111, so that the boat can be positioned. After the boat is positioned, the other two sides of the boat are parallel to the boat clamping side 21211, so that the two boat clamping members 2121 move toward each other to clamp and fix the boat. Preferably, two positioning members 2111 are provided, and the positioning sides 21111 of the two positioning members 2111 are opposite to each other, so that the two sides of the base of the boat can be respectively close to the positioning sides 21111 of the two positioning members 2111, and the two positioning members 2111 play a limiting role on the boat, which is conducive to the boat clamping mechanism 21 to stably clamp the boat.

[0104] See also Figure 7 and Fig. 9 The support piece 221 has a planar supporting side 2211, and the support piece 221 can be rotated until the supporting side 2211 is parallel to the positioning side 21111. When the support piece 221 is rotated until the supporting side 2211 is parallel to the positioning side 21111, the supporting side 2211 can contact each battery cell in the boat one by one, thereby supporting each battery cell.

[0105] In other embodiments, the first support structure 22 may also be slidably connected to the boat clamping mechanism 21. Specifically, the first support structure 22 includes two support pieces 221, which are arranged opposite to each other and are slidably connected to the two boat clamping pieces 2121, respectively. In this way, the space between the two support pieces 221 can be used for the top piece 31 to pass through, and the two support pieces 221 are slid to contact the battery cells in the boat clamped by the two boat clamping pieces 2121, so as to play the role of supporting the battery cells in the boat. Before clamping the boat in the boat clamping device 2, or before taking the boat out of the boat clamping device 2, the two support pieces 221 can be slid away from each other to a position where they will not contact the battery cells, so as to prevent the friction between the support pieces 221 and the battery cells from damaging the battery cells.

[0106] In other embodiments, the first supporting structure 22 may be disposed on the boat supporting platform 211 .

[0107] See also Figure 6 and Figure 7 In some embodiments, the boat clamping device 2 further includes a third connecting member 24, and the boat clamping mechanism 21 is fixedly mounted on the third connecting member 24. Figure 5 , the third connecting member 24 is fixed to the second rotating shaft 51 .

[0108] Preferably, the third connecting member 24 is a plate-shaped structure.

[0109] In some embodiments, the first accommodation space and the third accommodation space are facing each other in the vertical direction, and the top piece 31 is lifted and lowered in the vertical direction. In other embodiments, the first accommodation space and the third accommodation space are facing each other in a slightly inclined direction, and the top piece 31 is lifted and lowered in the direction of the third accommodation space. The two accommodation spaces facing each other means that the openings of the two accommodation spaces are aligned with each other and the directions of the two accommodation spaces are along the same straight line. These two types of embodiments will be described in detail below.

[0110] exist Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, the top sheet 31 is vertically arranged so that the third accommodating space faces upward, and the first connecting member 32 is raised and lowered in the vertical direction. When the boat clamping mechanism 21 is in the loading and unloading state, the top sheet 31 is located directly below the boat clamping mechanism 21. When the first boat 400 clamped by the boat clamping mechanism 21 is flipped to a horizontal state, the first accommodating space faces downward and is directly opposite to the third accommodating space. Afterwards, the first connecting member 32 is raised so that the top sheet 31 enters the first boat 400 to hold the battery cells; then, the first supporting sheet structure 22 is retracted into the boat clamping mechanism 21, and the first connecting member 32 is reset, so that the top sheet 31 can leave the first boat 400 together with the battery cells. After the first boat 400 is replaced by the second boat 500, the second accommodating space faces downward and is opposite to the third accommodating space, so that the first connecting member 32 is raised again, and the battery cell can be pushed into the second accommodating space; then, the first supporting sheet structure 22 is extended out of the boat clamping mechanism 21, and the first connecting member 32 is reset, so that the battery cell can be kept in the second boat 500. In these embodiments, the width of the third accommodating space is only slightly larger than the thickness of a battery cell, so that the battery cell can be prevented from tilting greatly after entering the third accommodating space, resulting in the failure of the top sheet member 31 to push the battery cell into the second boat 500. Exemplarily, in these embodiments, the width of the third accommodating space is only 0.05 mm larger than the thickness of a battery cell.

[0111] For example, see Figure 2 The frame 1 includes a vertically arranged first slide rail 11, the top sheet device 3 includes a first slide table 33 adapted to the first slide rail 11, and the first connecting member 32 is fixed to the first slide table 33. The first slide rail 11 and the first slide table 33 are slidably matched, so that the first connecting member 32 can be raised and lowered on the frame 1. Preferably, the first slide rail 11 and the first slide table 33 participate in forming a linear module.

[0112] exist Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, only one boat clamping device 2 may be provided, or two boat clamping devices 2 may be provided.

[0113] exist Figure 2In the illustrated embodiment, preferably, the battery cell transport and loading device 100 further includes a switching table 4, which is movably arranged on the frame 1. Two boat clamping devices 2 are provided, and the two boat clamping devices 2 are used to clamp the first boat 400 and the second boat 500 respectively. The frame 1 is provided with a loading and unloading position, and the boat clamping device 2 and the top sheet member 31 are used to load and unload the battery cells at the loading and unloading position. The two boat clamping devices 2 can be successively placed in the loading and unloading position through the movable switching table 4. In this way, while operating the first boat 400, the second boat 500 can be clamped in another boat clamping device 2, and there is no need to wait until the first boat 400 is taken out of the boat clamping device 2 and then the second boat 500 is loaded into the boat clamping device 2, which can shorten the time to complete the battery cell transport and loading and improve the efficiency of the battery cell transport and loading. Similarly, while operating the second boat 500, the first boat 400 in the hollow boat clamping device 2 used to clamp the first boat 400 can be replaced with the first boat 400 loaded with battery cells, which can also shorten the time to complete the battery cell transport and loading and improve the efficiency of the battery cell transport and loading.

[0114] exist Figure 2 In the illustrated embodiment, preferably, when the switching table 4 and the top piece 31 are not working, the boat clamping device 2 for clamping the first boat 400 is located at the loading and unloading position, and the top piece 31 is located directly below the loading and unloading position.

[0115] For example, see Figure 1 , the rack 1 includes a second slide rail 12, the switch table 4 includes a second slide table 41 adapted to the second slide rail 12, and the second slide rail 12 and the second slide table 41 form a sliding fit so that the switch table 4 is slidably connected to the rack 1. Preferably, the second slide rail 12 and the second slide table 41 participate in forming a linear module. Further, the rack 1 also includes a secondary slide rail 13 parallel to the second slide rail 12, the switch table 4 also includes a secondary slide table adapted to the secondary slide rail 13, and the switch table 4 is mounted on the second slide rail 12 and the secondary slide rail 13, which is conducive to the smooth sliding of the switch table 4.

[0116] In other embodiments, the switch table 4 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the two boat clamping devices 2 are arranged in sequence along the first circumference, and the center of the first circumference is located at the rotation axis of the switch table 4. In this way, by rotating the switch table 4, the boat clamping devices 2 can be moved in and out of the loading and unloading space.

[0117] The switching platform 4 is provided with an escape hole for the top piece 31 to pass through.

[0118] In some similar Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiment shown in the figure, each structure in the battery cell transport loading device 100 is Figure 1The structures of the battery cell transport loading device 100 are the same, but the top sheet 31 is arranged along the first direction so that the direction of the third accommodating space is along the first direction, and the first slide rail 11 is arranged along the first direction so that the first connecting member 32 moves linearly along the first direction, so that the first connecting member 32 is lifted and lowered along the first direction. When the boat clamping mechanism 21 is in the loading and unloading state, the top sheet 31 and the boat clamping mechanism 21 are opposite to each other along the first direction. The angle between the first direction and the plumb bob direction is α, 0<α≤10°. When the first boat 400 clamped by the boat clamping mechanism 21 is flipped to be perpendicular to the first direction, the first accommodating space is opposite to the third accommodating space. Afterwards, the first connecting member 32 is raised along the first direction so that the top sheet 31 enters the first boat 400 to hold the battery cell; then, the first supporting sheet structure 22 is retracted into the boat clamping mechanism 21, and the first connecting member 32 is reset, so that the top sheet 31 can hold the battery cell and leave the first boat 400 together. After replacing the first boat 400 with the second boat 500, the second accommodating space is oriented to face the third accommodating space. In this way, the first connecting member 32 is raised along the first direction again to push the battery cell into the second accommodating space. Then, the first supporting sheet structure 22 is extended out of the boat clamping mechanism 21, and the first connecting member 32 is reset to keep the battery cell in the second boat 500. In these embodiments, the width of the third accommodating space is only slightly larger than the thickness of a battery cell. This can prevent the battery cell from tilting too much after entering the third accommodating space, which would prevent the top sheet 31 from being able to push the battery cell into the second boat 500. By way of example, in these embodiments, the width of the third accommodating space is only 0.05 mm larger than the thickness of a battery cell. Similar to Figure 1 and Figure 2 In the embodiments shown, in these embodiments, only one boat clamping device 1 can be provided, or two boat clamping devices 1 can be provided.

[0119] In other embodiments, the width of the third accommodating space is much larger than the thickness of a battery cell. After the top sheet 31 holds the battery cell and leaves the first boat 400, the battery cell is prone to tip over and tilts to a greater extent relative to the plumb line. Subsequently, the first boat 400 is replaced with the second boat 500, and the second accommodating space faces directly downward, and two of the four limiting tooth groups 5011 forming the second accommodating space are located at the bottom, and the other two limiting tooth groups 5011 are located at the top. If the battery cell tips over after leaving the first boat 400, the battery cell will be blocked by the limiting teeth in the two limiting tooth groups 5011 located at the bottom when the top sheet 31 rises again in the vertical direction, resulting in the battery cell being unable to enter the second containing groove 50112 in the limiting tooth group 5011 located at the bottom. If the battery cell falls over after entering the second containing groove 50112 in the lower limiting tooth group 5011, the battery cell will be blocked by the limiting teeth in the two upper limiting tooth groups 5011 as the top sheet 31 continues to rise, so that the battery cell cannot enter the second containing groove 50112 in the upper limiting tooth group 5011. Both of the above situations will result in the inability to complete the transfer and loading of the battery cell, and the battery cell will be squeezed by the top sheet 31 and the limiting teeth and damaged.

[0120] exist Fig.11In the illustrated embodiment, the cell transport loading device 100 includes a first connecting member 32, which is disposed on the frame 1. The top piece 31 is disposed along the first direction so that the third accommodation space is oriented along the first direction. The first connecting member 32 moves linearly along the first direction to achieve lifting and lowering. When the boat clamping mechanism 21 is in the loading and unloading state, the top piece 31 and the boat clamping mechanism 21 are opposite to each other along the first direction. A process of transporting and loading cells with a thickness much smaller than the width of the third accommodation space by the cell transport loading device 100 is as follows: first, the first boat 400 is clamped in the boat clamping mechanism 21 in a vertical state. Then, the boat clamping mechanism 21 is flipped at an angle β, β=90°-α, so that the first accommodation space is oriented along the first direction, so that the first accommodation space is directly opposite to the third accommodation space. In the process of flipping the boat clamping mechanism 21 at an angle β, because each cell is against the groove wall of the first accommodation space under the action of gravity, each cell is always tilted in a consistent direction. Afterwards, after each battery cell enters the corresponding third accommodation space, because the width of the third accommodation space is much larger than the thickness of a battery cell, after entering the corresponding third accommodation space and leaving the first boat 400, each battery cell will fall in a consistent direction under the action of gravity and further tilt in a consistent direction, resulting in the angle between the battery cell and the plumb line being greater than α, and the tilt direction of the battery cell being inconsistent with the first direction. Afterwards, the top sheet member 31 is controlled to deflect so that the angle between the battery cell and the plumb line is reduced to α, and the tilt direction of the battery cell is consistent with the first direction. At the same time, the first boat 400 is replaced with the second boat 500, and the direction of the second accommodation space is along the first direction, so that the tilt direction of the battery cell is consistent with the direction of the second accommodation space. Afterwards, the first connecting member 32 is raised and lowered along the first direction to push the battery cell into the second accommodation space.

[0121] For example, see Fig.11 The lower left portion of the top piece 31 is rotatably connected to the first connecting piece 32 .

[0122] For example, see Fig.11 The frame 1 includes a first slide rail 11 arranged along a first direction, the top sheet device 3 includes a first slide table 33 adapted to the first slide rail 11, and the first connecting member 32 is fixed to the first slide table 33. The first slide rail 11 and the first slide table 33 are slidably matched to enable the first connecting member 32 to move linearly along the first direction. Preferably, the first slide rail 11 and the first slide table 33 participate in forming a linear module.

[0123] Preferably, α is 3°.

[0124] See also Fig.11In some embodiments, the top sheet device 3 further includes an adjustment component 34, which includes a first power output member 341, which is connected to the first connecting member 32 in a liftable manner and abuts against the outer bottom side of the top sheet member 31. In this way, the top sheet member 31 can be rotated by lifting and lowering the first power output member 341, thereby adjusting the tilt direction of the battery sheet in the top sheet member 31.

[0125] See also Fig.12 In other embodiments, the top sheet device 3 further includes an adjustment component 34, which includes a first power output member 341 and a transmission rod 343. The first power output member 341 is connected to the first connection member 32 in a liftable manner, and the two ends of the transmission rod 343 are respectively rotatably connected to the first power output member 341 and the top sheet member 31. In this way, the first power output member 341 is lifted and lowered, which can drive the transmission rod 343 and the top sheet member 31 to rotate, thereby adjusting the tilt direction of the battery sheet in the top sheet member 31.

[0126] See also Fig.11 and Fig.12 In some embodiments, the first power output member 341 is threadedly connected to the first connecting member 32 , and the first power output member 341 can be raised or lowered by twisting the first power output member 341 , thereby realizing the rotation of the top piece 31 .

[0127] See also Fig.11 and Fig.12 In some embodiments, the adjustment assembly 34 further includes a drive motor 342, and the seat of the drive motor 342 is fixed to the first connecting member 32. The first power output member 341 is threadedly connected to the first connecting member 32, and a limit groove is provided at the bottom of the first power output member 341. The output shaft of the drive motor 342 is conformally adapted to the limit groove and is located in the limit groove to drive the first power output member 341 to rotate, thereby lifting and lowering the first power output member 341. Exemplarily, the output shaft of the drive motor 342 is a D-shaped shaft / square shaft / hexagonal shaft.

[0128] In other embodiments, the adjustment component 34 is an electric push rod, the driving motor of the adjustment component 34 is fixed to the first connecting member 32, and the first power output member 341 is a push rod of the electric push rod.

[0129] In adopting Fig.11 or Fig.12 In some embodiments of the structure shown, only one boat clamping device 2 may be provided, or two boat clamping devices 2 may be provided.

[0130] In adopting Fig.11 or Fig.12 In some embodiments of the structure shown, preferably, the battery cell transport loading device 100 further includes Figure 1 and Figure 2The switching table 4 shown is movably arranged on the frame 1. Two boat clamping devices 2 are provided, and the two boat clamping devices 2 are used to clamp the first boat 400 and the second boat 500 respectively. The frame 1 is provided with a loading and unloading position, and the boat clamping device 2 and the top piece 31 are used to load and unload the battery cells at the loading and unloading position. The two boat clamping devices 2 can be successively placed in the loading and unloading position through the movable switching table 4. In this way, while operating the first boat 400, the second boat 500 can be clamped in another boat clamping device 2, and there is no need to wait until the first boat 400 is taken out of the boat clamping device 2 and then the second boat 500 is loaded into the boat clamping device 2, which can shorten the time to complete the transportation and loading of the battery cells and improve the efficiency of the transportation and loading of the battery cells. Similarly, while operating the second boat 500, the hollow first boat 400 in the boat clamping device 2 used to clamp the first boat 400 can be replaced with the first boat 400 loaded with battery cells, which can also shorten the time to complete the transportation and loading of the battery cells and improve the efficiency of the transportation and loading of the battery cells.

[0131] Preferably, in some embodiments, the fifth driving assembly 52 is a cylinder, the fifth seat body 521 is a cylinder body, and the fifth power output member 522 is a piston rod. When the piston of the fifth power output member 522 is at the zero point, the second rotating shaft 51 is in the first state; when the piston of the fifth power output member 522 is at the end point, the second rotating shaft 51 is in the second state. Figure 2 In the embodiment shown in which the top piece 31 is lifted and lowered in the vertical direction, the second state of the second rotating shaft 51 is rotated 90° relative to the first state. In other words, in the process of the piston of the fifth power output member 522 moving from the zero point to the end point, the fifth power output member 522 drives the second rotating shaft 51 to rotate 90°. In this way, the fifth driving assembly 52 can just flip the boat clamped by the boat clamping device 2 by 90°, thereby just flipping the boat that was originally in a vertical state to a horizontal state, so that the first accommodating space or the second accommodating space is directly opposite to the third accommodating space. Fig.11 or Fig.12 In the embodiment shown in which the top sheet 31 is lifted and lowered along the first direction, the second state of the second rotating shaft 51 is rotated by an angle β relative to the first state. In other words, in the process of the piston of the fifth power output member 522 moving from the zero point to the end point, the fifth power output member 522 drives the second rotating shaft 51 to rotate by an angle β, thereby turning the boat originally in a vertical state to a state close to a horizontal state, so that the first accommodating space or the second accommodating space is directly opposite to the third accommodating space.

[0132] See also Fig.13 and Fig.14In some embodiments, the boat clamping device 2 includes two boat clamping mechanisms 21, the two boat clamping mechanisms 21 are respectively used to clamp the first boat 400 and the second boat 500, the boat supporting platforms 211 of the two boat clamping mechanisms 21 are fixed to the third connecting member 24 in sequence along a direction perpendicular to the rotation axis of the boat supporting platforms 211; the first supporting plate structure 22 is provided on the boat clamping mechanism 21 for clamping the first boat 400; the boat clamping device 2 also includes a second supporting plate structure 23, the second supporting plate structure 23 is provided on the boat clamping mechanism 21 for clamping the second boat 500, so as to support the battery cells in the second boat 500 when the boat clamping mechanism 21 for clamping the second boat 500 is in a loading and unloading state; when both boat clamping mechanisms 21 are in a loading and unloading state, the boat clamping mechanism 21 for clamping the second boat 500 is located below the boat clamping mechanism 21 for clamping the first boat 400. Use Fig.13 The process of transporting and loading the battery cells by the battery cell transporting and loading device 100 is as follows: the first boat 400 with battery cells and the empty second boat 500 are clamped in two boat clamping mechanisms 21 respectively, the boat clamping device 2 is turned over so that the second boat 500 is located below the first boat 400, the top sheet 31 is raised to enter the first boat 400 to hold the battery cells, and then the first support sheet structure 22 is retracted to the boat clamping mechanism 21 holding the first boat 400, and the top sheet 31 is reset to allow the battery cells to enter the second accommodation space and be supported on the second support sheet structure 23. In this way, the battery cells follow the top sheet 31 to enter the second accommodation space from top to bottom, no matter whether the width of the third accommodation space is much larger than the thickness of the battery cells, no matter whether the battery cells are tilted to a large extent, the lower end of each battery cell is always aligned with the corresponding second accommodation space, and each battery cell can smoothly enter the second accommodation space from top to bottom without being blocked by the limiting teeth in the second boat 500. Moreover, the battery cells are moved from top to bottom toward the second boat 500, and compared with the battery cells moving from bottom to top toward the second boat 500, the battery cells will not be squeezed and damaged by the top piece 31 and the limiting teeth. In addition, in the process of completing a battery cell transfer and loading, it is only necessary to flip a boat clamping device 2 twice (first flip once, and then flip it back after the battery cells enter the second accommodating space, so that the boat clamping device 2 is reset and the first boat 400 and the second boat 500 are taken out), and the top piece 31 only needs to rise once and fall once, which can shorten the time to complete the battery cell transfer and loading, and improve the efficiency of battery cell transfer and loading.

In other embodiments, the second support structure 23 may also be a plate-shaped structure or a rod-shaped structure fixed to the boat clamping member 2121. In still other embodiments, the second support structure 23 may also be disposed on the boat support platform 211.

In this way, while operating one boat clamping device 2 to transfer and load the battery cells, another first boat 400 loaded with battery cells and another empty second boat 500 can be clamped in another boat clamping device 2. There is no need to wait until the empty first boat 400 and the second boat 500 loaded with battery cells are taken out of the boat clamping device 2 before loading another first boat 400 loaded with battery cells and another empty second boat 500 into the boat clamping device 2, which can shorten the time to complete the transfer and loading of battery cells and improve the efficiency of the transfer and loading of battery cells.

In this way, the first boat 400, the second boat 500 and the top sheet device 3 can accommodate two rows of battery cells at the same time. In other embodiments, only four limiting columns are provided on the first boat 400 and the second boat 500, and only one limiting tooth group is provided on each limiting column.
