[0024] The technical solution of the utility model is further explained below with reference to the accompanying drawings and through specific implementation methods.

[0025] like Figures 1 to 4 As shown, in this embodiment, a battery half-cell transfer mechanism includes a half-cell transfer track 1, a manipulator mechanism 2 and a fragment detection structure 3. The received battery half-cell is transported from the half-cell transfer track 1, and after being air-cooled and snap-positioned by the manipulator mechanism 2, the fragment detection structure 3 performs fragment detection on the battery half-cell.

[0026] Battery half-sheet snapping cylinders 101 are installed on both sides of the front end of the half-sheet transfer track 1, and a snapping rod 102 is connected to the driving end of the battery half-sheet snapping cylinder 101, and a snapping wheel 103 is installed on the snapping rod 102. The two ends of the half-sheet transfer track 1 are respectively rotatably connected with a half-sheet main shaft 104 and a half-sheet slave shaft 105, and a half-sheet belt 106 is transmission-connected between the half-sheet main shaft 104 and the half-sheet slave shaft 105. One end of the half-sheet transfer track 1 is connected to a half-sheet transfer motor 107, and the driving end of the half-sheet transfer motor 107 and one end of the half-sheet main shaft 104 are both installed with half-sheet transfer synchronous wheels, and the half-sheet transfer synchronous wheels are connected by belt transmission.

[0027] The front mechanism moves the battery half-sheet that has been laser cut to the half-sheet transfer track 1, and the half-sheet moving motor controls the rotation of the half-sheet transfer synchronous wheel, which is driven by the belt to drive the half-sheet main shaft 104 to rotate, and the half-sheet slave shaft 105 drives the half-sheet belt 106 to transport the battery half-sheet. When passing through the battery half-sheet snapping cylinder 101, the battery half-sheet snapping cylinder 101 controls the snapping rod 102 with the snapping wheel 103 to snap to the middle of the half-sheet transfer track 1, so that the position of the battery half-sheet can be corrected to the middle.

[0028] The manipulator mechanism 2 includes a manipulator base 201, a blowing fan 202 and a positioning rod 203. The half-piece transfer track 1 passes through the middle of the manipulator base 201. The blowing fan 202 is located at the front end of the manipulator base 201. A positioning slide rail 204 is installed horizontally at the rear end of the manipulator base 201. The positioning rod 203 slides on the positioning slide rail 204. A positioning wheel 205 is installed on the positioning rod 203. A grabbing manipulator 206 is fixed at the upper end of the manipulator base 201. The grabbing manipulator A manipulator suction cup 207 and a manipulator magnetic seat 208 are connected to the driving end of 206, and a positioning motor 209 and a positioning synchronous wheel are installed on the manipulator base 201. The driving end of the positioning motor 209 is key-connected with the positioning synchronous wheel, and a positioning synchronous belt is transmitted on the positioning synchronous wheel.

A half-fragment disk 210 is installed on one side of the manipulator base 201, and the half-fragment disk 210 is used to hold fragments.

When passing under the blowing fan 202, the blowing fan 202 blows air to cool the battery half-cell. Then, after passing through the robot base 201, the positioning motor 209 controls the positioning synchronous wheel to rotate, driving the movement of the positioning synchronous belt, and pulling the positioning rod 203 to snap to the middle. After the positioning rod 203 snaps and positions the battery half-cell in transit with the positioning wheel 205 again, it is detected by the fragment detection structure 3. The battery half-cell that meets the requirements is sucked up by the robot suction cup 207 controlled by the grasping robot 206 and transferred to the next mechanism. If it does not meet the requirements, it is placed in the half-cell broken plate 210 on the side for installation and waiting for manual processing. The grasping robot 206 also has a robot magnetic suction seat 208, which is used to absorb and hold the welding seat of the battery half-cell.

[0031] After the robot mechanism 2 assists in the snapping and positioning, the battery half-cell is precisely controlled to be in the middle position of the half-cell transfer track 1, corresponding to the bottom of the half-cell detection camera 302. In the case of front-to-back offset, the handwheel on the half-cell adjustment screw is turned to rotate the half-cell adjustment screw. Under the action of the half-cell adjustment nut, the half-cell detection light source 303 can be fine-tuned forward and backward along the half-cell adjustment slide rail 304, corresponding to the position of the battery half-cell, and the half-cell detection camera 302 can take pictures for detection.

[0032] It should be stated that the above-mentioned specific implementation methods are only preferred embodiments of the present utility model and the technical principles used. Within the technical scope disclosed by the present utility model, any changes or substitutions that can be easily thought of by technicians familiar with this technical field should be included in the protection scope of the present utility model.
