Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment, in particular to a lifting mechanism for lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment. Background Art

[0002] Lead-acid batteries have the absolute advantages of high cost-effectiveness and recyclability, and occupy a very large share in the battery field at home and abroad; lead-acid tubular batteries, as a type of lead-acid batteries, can provide a long service life and good cycle performance, and have gradually been widely used. In the manufacturing process of lead-acid tubular batteries, it is necessary to assemble the battery grid after the battery grid is die-cast, such as the pipe insertion process, in order to prepare for the subsequent paste extrusion process. In the prior art, in order to ensure assembly accuracy and improve production efficiency, semi-automatic or automatic assembly equipment has been developed, such as the use of pipe insertion machine equipment to realize various operations such as cutting plate ears, cutting lead bars, and pipe insertion.

[0003] In lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment, a lifting mechanism is usually required to adjust the height of other mechanisms or battery grids; for example, the patent with announcement number CN114530579B provides a tubular positive grid automatic cutting and inserting system, which includes a positive grid transfer device containing a lifting component. In most lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment, including the above patent, a lifting power part is usually directly used as a lifting mechanism, such as a lifting cylinder; however, this method has a limitation that cannot be ignored in practical applications, specifically:

[0004] The existing lifting power parts, including the lifting cylinder, have a limited area of ​​the contact point between them and the lifted parts when they are in action; while in the lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment, the lifted parts are generally large in area and volume (for example, the lifting power parts drive a large mounting plate, and the mounting plate is provided with handling components, positioning components, cutting components, etc.), and because of the difficulty, the load weight on both sides of the contact point is usually not balanced and regulated in actual use, which makes the load weight difference on both sides of the contact point large in many cases; the structural rigidity of this lifting mechanism is poor, and under this condition, eccentricity will occur, that is, the side of the contact point with a large load weight will sink, and the side of the contact point with a small load weight will rise; thus, it will have a significant negative impact on the operating stability and production yield of the entire lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment.

[0005] In summary, the utility model provides a lifting mechanism for lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment. Utility Model Content

[0006] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a lifting mechanism for lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment to solve the problem mentioned in the above background technology that the lifting mechanism in the existing lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment has poor structural rigidity and is prone to eccentricity during equipment operation, thereby affecting the operating stability and production yield of the entire lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment.

[0007] The utility model is realized by adopting the following technical solutions:

[0008] A lifting mechanism for lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment comprises a mounting base, a lifting plate and a lifting cylinder, wherein the mounting base is vertically arranged and the lifting plate is horizontally arranged, the side of the lifting cylinder is vertically and can be slid in the horizontal direction on the mounting base, a lifting plate is arranged above the lifting cylinder, and the output end of the lifting cylinder can be slidably connected to the lifting plate in the horizontal direction.

[0009] In this lifting mechanism, the mounting base is used to achieve supporting installation, the lifting plate is used to support the lifted part (i.e., the load), and the lifting cylinder is used to provide the lifting driving force, thereby realizing the basic lifting function; on this basis, since the side of the lifting cylinder is vertically and can be slidably mounted on the mounting base in the horizontal direction, and the output end of the lifting cylinder can be slidably connected to the lifting plate in the horizontal direction, the position of the lifting cylinder can be flexibly adjusted through the sliding installation and connection relationship according to the center of gravity position of the load, so that the contact point of the lifting cylinder is close to the center of gravity of the load or coincides with it, thereby minimizing or eliminating the eccentricity as much as possible.

[0010] Furthermore, the mounting base includes a vertically placed mounting plate, on which a plurality of horizontal strip holes I are opened, through which bolts I pass, and on the side of the lifting cylinder a screw hole I adapted to the bolt I is opened.

[0011] In the lifting mechanism, the horizontal position of the lifting cylinder on the mounting base can be adjusted along the strip hole I by loosening the bolt I. After the position adjustment is completed, the bolt I can be tightened to achieve locking.

[0012] Furthermore, the lifting plate is provided with a plurality of horizontal strip holes II, through which bolts II pass; the output end of the lifting cylinder is fixedly connected to the connecting plate, and the connecting plate is provided with screw holes II adapted to the bolts II.

[0013] In the lifting mechanism, by loosening the bolt II, the connection position of the lifting cylinder and the lifting plate can be adjusted along the strip hole II. After the position adjustment is completed, the bolt II can be tightened to achieve locking.

[0014] Furthermore, it also includes a linear bearing, the side of which is vertically installed on the mounting base, a guide shaft passes through the linear bearing, and the top end of the guide shaft is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lifting plate.

[0015] Furthermore, there are two linear bearings and two guide shafts, and the two linear bearings are respectively arranged on both sides of the lifting cylinder.

[0016] In the lifting mechanism, by providing a linear bearing and a guide shaft, the lifting movement of the lifting plate can be guided, thereby improving the stability of the movement and helping to increase the overall structural rigidity of the lifting mechanism.

[0017] Furthermore, the lifting cylinder is a cylinder with a guide rod.

[0018] In the lifting mechanism, a cylinder with a guide rod is used instead of an ordinary single-rod cylinder. A guide rod is provided on each side of the cylinder in the cylinder with a guide rod, thereby enhancing the rigidity of the cylinder, so that it is difficult to deform even if the force is uneven.

[0019] The beneficial effects achieved by the utility model are:

[0020] A lifting mechanism for lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment is provided. By setting a mounting base, a lifting plate and a lifting cylinder, a basic lifting function can be realized; and based on the sliding mounting relationship of the lifting cylinder on the mounting base and the sliding connection relationship between the lifting cylinder and the lifting plate, the horizontal position of the lifting cylinder can be adjusted. Therefore, compared with the lifting mechanism in the existing lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment, the lifting mechanism can flexibly adjust the position of the lifting cylinder according to the center of gravity of the load, so that the contact point of the lifting cylinder is close to the center of gravity of the load or coincides with it, thereby minimizing or eliminating the eccentricity phenomenon as much as possible, thereby effectively reducing or avoiding the negative impact on the entire lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment.

[0025] Example 1

[0026] This embodiment provides a lifting mechanism for lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment. Figure 1 , including a mounting base 3, a lifting plate 1 and a lifting cylinder 7. The mounting base 3 is vertically arranged, and the lifting plate 1 is horizontally arranged. The side of the lifting cylinder 7 is vertically and can be slid in the horizontal direction and is installed on the mounting base 3. The lifting plate 1 is arranged above the lifting cylinder 7, and the output end of the lifting cylinder 7 can be connected to the lifting plate 1 in a horizontal direction.

[0027] Specifically:

[0028] The mounting base 3 includes a vertically placed mounting plate 5, on which two horizontal and symmetrical strip holes Ⅰ6 are opened, through which bolts Ⅰ pass, and on the side of the lifting cylinder 7, screw holes Ⅰ that are compatible with the bolts Ⅰ are opened.

[0029] The lifting plate 1 is provided with two horizontal and symmetrical strip holes II9, through which bolts II pass; the output end of the lifting cylinder 7 is fixedly connected to the connecting plate 8, and the connecting plate 8 is provided with screw holes II that match the bolts II.

[0030] The lifting mechanism also includes two linear bearings 2, which are respectively arranged on both sides of the lifting cylinder 7, and the sides of the linear bearings 2 are vertically installed on the mounting base 3; a guide shaft 4 passes through the two linear bearings 2 respectively, and the top end of the guide shaft 4 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the lifting plate 1.

[0031] In this embodiment, the lifting cylinder 7 is a cylinder with a guide rod, and a guide rod is provided on each side of the cylinder; the linear bearing 2 is an extended linear bearing 2, and the contact area between the linear bearing and the guide shaft 4 is larger.

[0032] Based on the above structure, when using the lifting mechanism:

[0033] like Figure 2 As shown, there is a large difference in weight between the loads Ⅰ10 and Ⅱ11 on both sides of the contact point between the lifting cylinder 7 and the lifting plate 1. At this time, by loosening the bolt Ⅰ, the horizontal position of the lifting cylinder 7 on the mounting base 3 can be adjusted along the strip hole Ⅰ6. By loosening the bolt Ⅱ, the connection position of the lifting cylinder 7 and the lifting plate 1 can be synchronously adjusted along the strip hole Ⅱ9. After the position adjustment is completed, tighten the bolt Ⅰ to achieve locking.

[0034] Based on this, the lifting mechanism can flexibly adjust the position of the lifting cylinder 7 according to the center of gravity of the load through sliding installation and connection relationship, so that the contact point of the lifting cylinder 7 is close to the center of gravity of the load or coincides with it, thereby minimizing or eliminating the eccentricity phenomenon as much as possible, thereby effectively reducing or avoiding the negative impact on the entire lead-acid tubular battery assembly equipment.
