Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery sheet production, in particular to a correction mechanism. 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 grabbed with a suction cup, and then the suction cup is moved horizontally 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 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 order to accurately place the battery cells in the second boat and prevent the battery cells from entering the second boat and being damaged when there is a positional offset, a correction mechanism is usually set on the battery transfer and loading device to correct the battery cells. The correction mechanism usually includes two plate-shaped correction members, and the two correction members can correct the battery cells between the two by moving them toward each other. However, in the current correction mechanism, the position of the correction piece is relatively fixed and cannot be adjusted, resulting in poor applicability of the correction mechanism to battery cells of different specifications. Utility Model Content
[0004] Based on this, it is necessary to provide a correction mechanism to solve the above problems. The position of the correction member in the correction mechanism can be adjusted, so that it can be applicable to the correction of battery cells of more specifications.
[0005] In order to solve the above problems, the utility model provides the following technical solutions:
[0006] A correction mechanism is used to correct a battery cell in a battery cell transport and loading device, and the correction mechanism comprises:
[0007] A sixth driving assembly includes a sixth seat body and a sixth power output member, wherein the sixth power output member is slidably connected to the sixth seat body in a horizontal direction;
[0008] The mounting assembly includes a first mounting seat and a first threaded connector, the first mounting seat is provided with a plurality of first mounting positions, and the plurality of first mounting positions are sequentially distributed along a horizontal direction; and
[0009] Two parallel return members are arranged, and the two return members can move toward each other and away from each other in the horizontal direction; the sixth drive component and the installation component are each provided with multiple return members and are arranged one-to-one corresponding to the return members, and the first mounting seat of each installation component is fixedly arranged on the sixth power output member corresponding to the sixth drive component, and each return member is locked on a first mounting position on the first mounting seat of the corresponding installation component through the first threaded connection member.
[0010] The reformation institution has at least the following beneficial effects:
[0011] The correcting member can be installed at different first installation positions, so as to adjust the initial position of the correcting member and the initial spacing between the two correcting members, so that the correcting mechanism is suitable for the correction of battery cells of different specifications. Installing the correcting member at different first installation positions and changing the preset displacement of the sixth power output member can make the correcting mechanism suitable for the correction of battery cells of different specifications. Combining these two means can make the correcting mechanism suitable for the correction of battery cells of more specifications.
[0012] In one of the embodiments, each of the first mounting positions is provided with a first mounting hole, the first threaded connector is passed through the first mounting hole and locks the return member on the first mounting position; in the vertical direction, the first threaded connector can slide along the first mounting hole.
[0013] With this arrangement, the correcting member can be moved in the vertical direction when the first threaded connector is not locked, and then the correcting member can be locked in the first installation position using the first threaded connector, so that the height position of the correcting member can be adjusted to accommodate the correction of battery cells of different specifications.
[0014] In one of the embodiments, in the horizontal direction, the first threaded connection member abuts against a hole wall of the first mounting hole.
[0015] Such arrangement can prevent the correcting member from being displaced in the horizontal direction, thereby ensuring that the contact side of the correcting member can abut against the battery cell without causing excessive pressure on the battery cell and causing damage to the battery cell when the preset displacement of the sixth power output member remains unchanged.
[0016] In one of the embodiments, each of the first mounting positions is provided with a plurality of the first mounting holes, each of the mounting components includes a plurality of the first threaded connectors, and each of the first mounting holes corresponds to at least one of the first threaded connectors.
[0017] Such an arrangement can prevent the return member from rotating and causing the distance between the contact sides of the two return members to change, thereby ensuring that the contact side of the return member can abut the battery cell without causing excessive pressure on the battery cell and causing damage to the battery cell when the preset displacement of the sixth power output member remains unchanged.
[0018] In one embodiment, each of the first mounting holes corresponds to at least two of the first threaded connectors.
[0019] Such an arrangement is conducive to firmly locking the return member in the first installation position.
[0020] In one embodiment, a first groove is provided on the first mounting seat, and the bottom wall of the first groove forms the first mounting position. The two opposite side walls of the first groove are respectively a first limiting wall and a second limiting wall. The first limiting wall and the second limiting wall are both planar and perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sixth power output member. The mounting assembly also includes a connecting column, both sides of which are planar and respectively abut against the first limiting wall and the second limiting wall. The return piece is fixed to the connecting column, and the first threaded connector is passed through the first mounting position and is threadedly connected to the connecting column.
[0021] With such a configuration, tightening the first threaded connector can lock the connecting column in the first mounting position, thereby placing the return member in the first mounting position, and the abutment relationship between the connecting column, the first limiting wall and the second limiting wall can prevent the return member from shifting in position along the horizontal direction, thereby ensuring that the contact side of the return member can abut against the battery cell without causing excessive pressure on the battery cell and causing damage to the battery cell when the preset displacement of the sixth power output member remains unchanged.
[0022] In one embodiment, the side of each of the returning pieces facing the other returning piece is a clamping side, and the clamping side is planar. A plurality of first partitions are fixedly provided on each of the clamping sides at equal intervals along a horizontal direction. The first partitions on one of the returning pieces are arranged opposite to the first partitions on the other returning piece. The gap between two adjacent first partitions on the same returning piece is a first gap, and the first gap is used to accommodate a battery cell.
[0023] With such arrangement, when the correction mechanism corrects the battery cells, each battery cell enters the corresponding first gap respectively, and the wall of the first gap can also play a role in correcting the position of the battery cells, which is conducive to the correction mechanism correcting the position of the battery cells.
[0024] In one embodiment, the side wall of the first separator is in a curved shape, and along a direction perpendicular to the clamping side, the distance between two adjacent side walls of the first separator first decreases and then increases.
[0025] With such arrangement, the battery cell and the wall of the first gap are in point contact, which helps to prevent the battery cell from being damaged due to large friction between the battery cell and the wall of the first gap.
[0026] In one embodiment, a guide tooth is fixedly provided on a side of each first partition away from the clamping side, and a second gap exists between two adjacent guide teeth on the same correcting member, and the second gap gradually widens in a direction gradually approaching another correcting member.
[0027] With such arrangement, even if the battery cell is shifted to a certain extent, it can smoothly enter the first gap under the guidance of the wall of the second gap, which is conducive to the correction mechanism to smoothly correct the position of the battery cell.
[0028] In one embodiment, the side wall of the guide tooth is in a frustum-shaped or conical shape.
[0029] With this arrangement, even if the battery cell is displaced to a certain extent and contacts the wall of the second gap, the battery cell and the wall of the second gap are only in point contact, which helps to prevent the battery cell from being damaged by large friction with the wall of the second gap.

[0061] See also Figure 1 The first boat 400 is a boat for loading battery cells during the process of processing battery cells by the former process, and the second boat 500 is a boat for loading battery cells during the process of processing battery cells by the latter process. After processing the battery cells by the former process and before processing the battery cells by the latter process, the battery cells in the first boat 400 need to be transferred to the second boat 500.
[0062] See also Figure 1 and Figure 2The utility model first provides a battery cell transfer and 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 and loading device 100 includes a frame 1, a suction cup unit 2, two boat clamping devices 3, a switching table 4 and a top piece 5. A loading and unloading position is provided on the frame 1, and the suction cup unit 2 is located directly above the loading and unloading position. The two boat clamping devices 3 are used to clamp the first boat 400 and the second boat 500 respectively. The switching table 4 can be movably arranged on the frame 1, and the two boat clamping devices 3 can be rotatably arranged on the switching table 4, and the switching table 4 moves the two boat clamping devices 3 into the loading and unloading position one after another. The top piece 5 is liftably arranged on the frame 1 and can pass through the loading and unloading position.
[0063] The cell transfer loading device 100 transfers the cells in the first boat 400 to the second boat 500 in the following process: first, the first boat 400 carrying the cells is clamped in a boat clamping device 3; the boat clamping device 3 holding the first boat 400 is turned over to make the first boat 400 in a horizontal state and the first boat 400 is located at the loading and unloading position. Then, the top sheet 5 originally located directly below the loading and unloading position is raised to push the cells in the first boat 400 into the suction cup unit 2, and at the same time, the empty second boat 500 is clamped in another boat clamping device 3, and the boat clamping device 3 holding the second boat 500 is turned over to make the second boat 500 in a horizontal state. After that, the suction cup unit 2 sucks the cells lifted by the top sheet 5. Then, the top sheet 5 is lowered to directly below the loading and unloading position; the switching table 4 is moved to make the first boat 400 leave the loading and unloading position and move the second boat 500 into the loading and unloading position. Afterwards, the top sheet 5 is raised to hold the battery cell; the suction cup unit 2 releases the battery cell to place the battery cell in the top sheet 5. Then, the top sheet 5 is lowered to place the battery cell in the second boat 500. The process of transferring the battery cell in the first boat 400 to the second boat 500 by the battery cell transfer loading device 100 avoids the battery cell from moving horizontally with the suction cup 21, which is beneficial to prevent the battery cell from being greatly offset, and can improve the positioning accuracy of the battery cell, thereby facilitating the transfer of the battery cell to the second boat 500.
[0064] Moreover, in the conventional cell transfer and loading device 100, in order to ensure that the cell can follow the horizontal movement of the suction cup 21, the suction cup 21 needs to exert a large suction force on the cell. The cell transfer and loading device 100 provided by the utility model avoids the cell following the horizontal movement of the suction cup 21, so the suction cup unit 2 does not need to exert a large force on the cell, which is conducive to reducing the use cost.
[0065] In addition, compared with the battery cell transfer and loading equipment 100 in the traditional technology that needs to be equipped with two top pieces 5, the battery cell transfer and loading equipment 100 provided by the utility model only needs to be equipped with one top piece 5, which can not only simplify the structure of the battery cell transfer and loading equipment 100, but also reduce the cost of use.
[0066] See also Figure 2 and Figure 3 The top sheet 5 includes a top sheet portion 51 and multiple rows of second separators 52 fixed on the top side of the top sheet portion 51, and the multiple rows of separators are parallel to each other. The multiple second separators 52 in each row of second separators 52 are evenly spaced along the horizontal direction, and a third gap 521 is formed between two adjacent second separators 52 in each row of second separators 52, wherein the third gap 521 in one row of second separators 52 is arranged one-to-one with the third gap 521 in another row of second separators 52 to form a space for accommodating a battery cell. When the top sheet 5 rises, the second separator 52 is misaligned with the battery cell. As the top sheet 5 rises, each battery cell first enters the corresponding third gap 521, and then contacts the top sheet portion 51 and is gradually lifted up by the top sheet portion 51.
[0067] Exemplarily, the frame 1 includes a vertically arranged first slide rail, the top piece 5 includes a first slide table adapted to the first slide rail, and the first slide rail and the first slide table are slidably matched so that the top piece 5 can be raised and lowered on the frame 1. Preferably, the first slide rail and the first slide table participate in forming a linear module.
[0068] See also Figure 1 , the suction cup unit 2 is spaced apart from the rack 1. For example, the suction cup unit 2 and the rack 1 are fixed to the ground at intervals. In other embodiments, the suction cup unit 2 can also be directly mounted on the rack 1.
[0069] See also Figure 2 and Figure 4 The suction cup unit 2 includes a plurality of suction cups 21 equally spaced in the horizontal direction, and a fourth gap 211 for accommodating a battery cell is formed between two adjacent suction cups 21. When the top sheet 5 pushes the battery cell into the suction cup unit 2, the battery cell is misaligned with the suction cup 21, and each battery cell can enter the corresponding fourth gap 211.
[0070] See also Figure 1 The switch table 4 is slidably connected to the frame 1, and the two boat clamping devices 3 are arranged in sequence along the sliding direction of the switch table 4. In this way, by sliding the switch table 4, the boat clamping devices 3 can be moved in and out of the loading and unloading positions.
[0071] For example, see Figure 1, the rack 1 includes a second slide rail 11, the switch table 4 includes a second slide table 41 adapted to the second slide rail 11, and the second slide rail 11 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 11 and the second slide table 41 participate in forming a linear module. Further, the rack 1 also includes a secondary slide rail 12 parallel to the second slide rail 11, the switch table 4 also includes a secondary slide table adapted to the secondary slide rail 12, and the switch table 4 is mounted on the second slide rail 11 and the secondary slide rail 12, which is conducive to the smooth sliding of the switch table 4.
[0072] In other embodiments, the switch table 4 is rotatably connected to the frame 1, and the two boat clamping devices 3 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 3 can be moved in and out of the loading and unloading positions.
[0073] The portion of the switching table 4 located directly below the suction cup unit 2 is provided with an escape hole for the top sheet 5 to pass through.
[0074] See also Figures 7 to 10 The boat clamping device 3 includes a boat clamping mechanism 31 and a supporting structure 32. The boat clamping mechanism 31 is used to clamp the boat, and the supporting structure 32 is used to support the battery cells in the boat during the rotation of the boat clamping device 3.
[0075] See also Figures 7 to 10 The boat clamping mechanism 31 includes a boat support platform 311 and a boat clamping structure 312. The boat clamping structure 312 includes two boat clamping members 3121 arranged in parallel. The two boat clamping members 3121 can be lifted and lowered on both sides of the boat support platform 311, and the two boat clamping members 3121 can move toward each other in the horizontal direction and can move away from each other in the horizontal direction. After placing the boat on the boat support platform 311, the boat clamping members 3121 are lifted and lowered relative to the boat support platform 311 to move to a position where the boat can be stably clamped, and then the two boat clamping members 3121 are moved toward each other to clamp the boat.
[0076] See also Fig.10 The boat clamping structure 312 further includes two first driving components 313, the first driving component 313 includes a first seat body 3131 and a first power output member 3132, the first seat body 3131 is fixed to the boat support platform 311, the first power output member 3132 can be connected to the first seat body 3131 in a sliding manner in the horizontal direction, the first driving component 313 and the boat clamping member 3121 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and each boat clamping member 3121 can be lifted and lowered to the first power output member 3132 of the corresponding first driving component 313. In this way, the boat clamping member 3121 can be driven to move in the horizontal direction by the sliding of the first power output member 3132.
[0077] In some embodiments, the first drive assembly 313 is a cylinder, the first seat body 3131 is a cylinder body of the cylinder, and the first power output member 3132 is a piston rod of the cylinder. In other embodiments, the first drive assembly 313 is a linear module, the first seat body 3131 is a slide rail of the linear module, and the first power output member 3132 is a slide table of the linear module.
[0078] See also Fig.10 The boat clamping structure 312 further includes two second driving components 314, the second driving components 314 include a second seat body 3141 and a second power output member, the second power output member is connected to the second seat body 3141 in a manner that it can be raised and lowered, the first driving components 313, the second driving components 314 and the boat clamping member 3121 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, the second seat body 3141 of each second driving component 314 is fixedly arranged on the first power output member 3132 corresponding to the first driving component 313, and each boat clamping member 3121 is fixedly arranged on the second power output member corresponding to the second driving component 314. In this way, the boat clamping member 3121 can be raised and lowered by raising and lowering the second power output member.
[0079] The second driving assembly 314 may have a structure that is the same as or similar to that of the first driving assembly 313 .
[0080] See also Figure 7 In order to facilitate the fixing of the second seat body 3141 to the first power output member 3132, the boat clamping mechanism 31 also includes two first connecting members 315. The first driving component 313, the first connecting member 315, the second driving component 314, and the boat clamping member 3121 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence. Each connecting member is fixed to the first power output member 3132 of a first driving component 313, and the second seat body 3141 of each second driving component 314 is fixed to the corresponding first connecting member 315.
[0081] See also Figures 7 to 10 , the support sheet structure 32 is arranged on the same side of the two boat clamping members 3121. Thus, when the first boat clamping device 3 is turned clockwise, the support sheet structure 32 is located below the boat clamped by the boat clamping mechanism 31, thereby supporting the battery cells in the boat and preventing the battery cells from partially leaking out of or falling off the boat.
[0082] See also Figures 7 to 10The support structure 32 includes two support pieces 321, which are arranged opposite to each other and are rotatably connected to the two boat clamping pieces 3121. In this way, the space between the two support pieces 321 can be used for the top piece 5 to pass through. The two support pieces 321 are rotated to contact the battery cells in the boat clamped by the two boat clamping pieces 3121, so as to support the battery cells in the boat. Before the boat is clamped in the boat clamping device 3, or before the boat is taken out of the boat clamping device 3, the two support pieces 321 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 pieces 321 and the battery cells from damaging the battery cells.
[0083] See also Figure 8 , the base of the boat is usually rectangular. Fig. 9 and Fig.10 , a positioning member 3111 is provided on the boat support platform 311, one side of the positioning member 3111 is a positioning side 31111, the positioning side 31111 is in a plane shape, and the side of each boat clamping member 3121 facing the other boat clamping member 3121 is a boat clamping side 31211, the boat clamping side 31211 is in a plane shape and perpendicular to the positioning surface. In this way, after placing the boat on the boat support platform 311, one side of the boat base is close to the positioning side 31111, and the boat can be positioned. After the boat is positioned, the other two sides of the boat are parallel to the boat clamping side 31211, and the two boat clamping members 3121 are moved toward each other to clamp the boat. Preferably, two positioning members 3111 are provided, and the positioning sides 31111 of the two positioning members 3111 are opposite to each other, so that the two sides of the base of the boat can be respectively close to the positioning sides 31111 of the two positioning members 3111, and the two positioning members 3111 play a limiting role on the boat, which is conducive to the boat clamping mechanism 31 to stably clamp the boat.
[0084] See also Figure 8 and Fig.10 The support piece 321 has a planar supporting side 3211, and the support piece 321 can be rotated until the supporting side 3211 is parallel to the positioning surface. When the support piece 321 is rotated until the supporting side 3211 is parallel to the positioning surface, the supporting side 3211 can contact each battery cell in the boat one by one, thereby supporting each battery cell.
[0085] See also Figure 7 and Figure 8The support piece 321 includes a first rotating shaft 3212, and the first rotating shaft 3212 is rotatably connected to the boat clamping piece 3121. The support piece structure 32 also includes a third driving assembly 322, and the third driving assembly 322 includes a third seat body 3221, a third power output member 3222 and a first transmission member 3223. The third seat body 3221 is rotatably connected to the boat clamping piece 3121, and the third power output member 3222 is slidably connected to the third seat body 3221. The first transmission member 3223 is rotatably connected to the third power output member 3222 and fixedly connected to the first rotating shaft 3212. In this way, when the third power output member 3222 slides, the third seat body 3221 rotates relative to the boat clamping piece 3121, and the first transmission member 3223 rotates relative to the third power output member 3222 and drives the first rotating shaft 3212 to rotate, so that the support piece 321 can rotate.
[0086] In other embodiments, the supporting sheet structure 32 may also be a plate-shaped or rod-shaped structure fixed to the boat clamp 3121 .
[0087] In order to prevent the battery cells from leaking out or falling out of the boat, the boat is usually in a vertical position. In order to push out the battery cells in the boat, the boat needs to be flipped to a horizontal position. Fig.11 The cell transport loading device 100 further includes a plurality of boat turning mechanisms 7, which are arranged one by one in correspondence with the boat clamping devices 3. The boat turning mechanism 7 has a second rotating shaft 71 capable of outputting rotational motion, and the supporting platform of each boat clamping device 3 is fixedly arranged on the second rotating shaft 71 corresponding to the boat turning mechanism 7. In this way, when the second transmission shaft rotates, the boat supporting platform 311 is driven to rotate, thereby driving the boat clamped by the two boat clamping members 3121 to rotate, and then turning the boat to a horizontal state or a vertical state.
[0088] See also Fig.11 The boat turning mechanism 7 further includes a fourth driving assembly 72, which includes a fourth seat body 721, a fourth power output member 722, and a second transmission member 723. The fourth seat body 721 is rotatably connected to the switching platform 4, and the fourth power output member 722 is slidably connected to the fourth seat body 721. The second transmission member 723 is rotatably connected to the fourth power output member 722 and fixedly connected to the second rotating shaft 71, and the second rotating shaft 71 is rotatably connected to the switching platform 4, and the boat supporting platform 311 is fixedly arranged on the second rotating shaft 71. Fig.11 In the embodiment, the first boat 400 is in a horizontal state and the second boat 500 is in a vertical state. Fig.11 The two boat turning mechanisms 7 are in different states. Fig.11From the states of the two boat turning mechanisms 7, it can be seen that: when the fourth power output member 722 slides, the fourth seat body 721 rotates relative to the switching table 4, the second transmission member 723 rotates relative to the fourth power output member 722 and drives the second rotating shaft 71 to rotate, thereby driving the boat supporting platform 311 to rotate, and then driving the boat clamped by the two boat clamping members 3121 to rotate, thereby turning the boat to a horizontal state or a vertical state.
[0089] exist Fig.11 In the illustrated embodiment, the boat support platform 311 is fixed to the second rotating shaft 71 via a centering component.
[0090] See also Fig.12 The utility model secondly provides a battery cell transport and loading system, which includes a placement table 200, a conveying mechanism 300 and the above-mentioned battery cell transport and loading device 100. The placement table 200 is spaced apart from the frame 1 or fixed to the frame 1, and is used to place the above-mentioned first boat 400 and second boat 500. The conveying mechanism 300 is spaced apart from the frame 1 or fixed to the frame 1, and can convey the first boat 400 from one of the placement table 200 and a boat clamping device 3 to the other, and can convey the second boat 500 from one of the placement table 200 and another boat clamping device 3 to the other. Specifically, the transport mechanism 300 transports the first boat 400 carrying the battery cells to a boat clamping device 3, and after the battery cells in the first boat 400 are removed, the empty first boat 400 is transported to the placement table 200 by the boat clamping device 3; the transport mechanism 300 transports the empty second boat 500 to another boat clamping device 3, and after the battery cells are moved into the second boat 500, the second boat 500 carrying the battery cells is transported to the placement table 200 by the boat clamping device 3. Because the battery cell transport and loading system includes the above-mentioned battery cell transport and loading device 100, the battery cell transport and loading system has the technical effects of the above-mentioned battery cell transport and loading device 100. Since the relevant technical effects have been fully described in the foregoing text, they will not be repeated here.
[0091] Exemplarily, the placement table 200, the transport mechanism 300 and the cell transfer loading device 100 are fixed on the ground in sequence and at intervals. The transport mechanism 300 can be a robot.
[0092] See also Figure 2 The present invention also provides a correction mechanism 6, which can be used in the battery cell transport and loading device 100 provided by the present invention, and can also be used in the battery cell transport and loading device described in the background technology of this specification. Figure 2When applied to the cell transport and loading device 100 provided by the present invention, the alignment mechanism 6 is located between the suction cup unit 2 and the loading and unloading position. When applied to the cell transport and loading device 100 described in the background technology of this specification, two alignment mechanisms 6 are provided, and are respectively arranged directly above the first top sheet and the second top sheet.
[0093] See also Figure 2 The correction mechanism 6 includes two correction members 61 arranged in parallel, and the two correction members 61 are arranged on the frame 1 so as to be movable toward each other and away from each other along the horizontal direction. In this way, the two correction members 61 can be moved toward each other so as to abut against both sides of all the battery cells respectively, so as to align the same side of all the battery cells and realize the correction of the battery cell positions.
[0094] It can be understood that, whether installed in a boat or in a flower basket, the battery cells are distributed at equal intervals.
[0095] See also Figure 6 The correction mechanism 6 also includes a plurality of sixth drive components 64, the sixth drive component 64 includes a sixth seat body 641 and a sixth power output member 642, the sixth seat body 641 is fixed to the frame 1, and the sixth power output member 642 can be slidably connected to the sixth seat body 641 in the horizontal direction. The sixth drive components 64 are arranged one by one with the correction members 61, and each correction member 61 is fixed to the sixth power output member 642 corresponding to the sixth drive component 64. In this way, the correction member 61 can be driven to move horizontally by the sliding of the sixth power output member 642 to achieve correction. Moreover, by changing the preset position of the sixth power output member 642, the correction mechanism 6 can be applied to the correction of battery cells of different specifications.
[0096] See also Figure 6The correction mechanism 6 also includes a plurality of mounting components 65, each mounting component 65 includes a first mounting seat 651 and a first threaded connector 652, and a plurality of first mounting positions 6511 are provided on the first mounting seat 651, and the plurality of first mounting positions 6511 are sequentially distributed along the horizontal direction. The mounting components 65, the sixth driving component 64 and the correction member 61 are arranged in a one-to-one correspondence, and each mounting component 65 is fixedly arranged on the sixth power output member 642 corresponding to the sixth driving component 64, and each correction member 61 is locked on a first mounting position 6511 on the first mounting seat 651 of the corresponding mounting component 65 through the first threaded connector 652. In this way, the correction member 61 can be installed in different first mounting positions 6511, thereby adjusting the initial position of the correction member 61 and the initial spacing between the two correction members 61, so that the correction mechanism 6 is suitable for the correction of battery cells of different specifications. The initial position refers to the position of the return member 61 when the sixth power output member 642 of the corresponding sixth drive assembly 64 is reset, and the initial spacing refers to the spacing between the two return members 61 when both sixth power output members 642 are reset.
[0097] It is worth mentioning that installing the correcting member 61 at different first mounting positions 6511 and changing the preset displacement of the sixth power output member 642 can both make the correcting mechanism 6 suitable for the correction of battery cells of different specifications. Combining these two methods can make the correcting mechanism 6 suitable for the correction of battery cells of more specifications.
[0098] See also Figure 6 Each first mounting position 6511 is provided with a first mounting hole 65111, and a first threaded connector 652 is inserted through the first mounting hole 65111 to lock the return member 61 on the first mounting position 6511; in the vertical direction, the first threaded connector 652 can slide along the first mounting hole 65111. In this way, the return member 61 can be moved in the vertical direction when the first threaded connector 652 is not locked, and then the return member 61 is locked on the first mounting position 6511 by the first threaded connector 652, so that the height position of the return member 61 can be adjusted to adapt to the return of battery cells of different specifications.
[0099] Preferably, in the horizontal direction, the first threaded connector 652 abuts against the hole wall of the first mounting hole 65111. This can prevent the return member 61 from being displaced in the horizontal direction, thereby ensuring that the contact side of the return member 61 can abut against the battery cell without causing excessive pressure on the battery cell and causing damage to the battery cell when the preset displacement of the sixth power output member 642 remains unchanged.
[0100] Preferably, see Figure 6, each first mounting position 6511 is provided with a plurality of first mounting holes 65111, each mounting assembly 65 includes a plurality of first threaded connectors 652, each first mounting hole 65111 corresponds to at least one first threaded connector 652, that is, at least one first threaded connector 652 passes through one first mounting hole 65111. This can prevent the return member 61 from rotating and causing the distance between the contact sides of the two return members 61 to change, thereby ensuring that the contact side of the return member 61 can abut against the battery cell without causing excessive pressure on the battery cell to damage the battery cell when the preset displacement of the sixth power output member 642 remains unchanged.
[0101] Preferably, each first mounting hole 65111 corresponds to at least two first threaded connectors 652, that is, at least two first threaded connectors 652 pass through the same first mounting hole 65111. This is conducive to firmly locking the return member 61 at the first mounting position 6511.
[0102] In other embodiments, each first mounting position 6511 may be provided with only a first mounting hole 65111, but one first mounting hole 65111 corresponds to a plurality of first threaded connectors 652, that is, the plurality of first threaded connectors 652 all pass through the same first mounting hole 65111 and simultaneously lock the return member 61 on the first mounting position 6511. This can also prevent the return member 61 from rotating and causing the distance between the contact sides of the two return members 61 to change.
[0103] Preferably, see Figure 6 The first mounting seat 651 is provided with a first groove 6512, the bottom wall of the first groove 6512 forms a first mounting position 6511, and the two opposite side walls of the first groove 6512 are respectively a first limiting wall 65121 and a second limiting wall, the first limiting wall 65121 and the second limiting wall are both planar and perpendicular to the sliding direction of the sixth power output member 642. The mounting assembly 65 also includes a connecting column 653, both sides of the connecting column 653 are planar and respectively abut against the first limiting wall 65121 and the second limiting wall, the return member 61 is fixed to the connecting column 653, and the first threaded connector 652 is passed through the first mounting position 6511 and is threadedly connected to the connecting column 653. In this way, tightening the first threaded connector 652 can lock the connecting column 653 on the first mounting position 6511, thereby placing the correcting member 61 on the first mounting position 6511, and the abutment relationship between the connecting column 653, the first limiting wall 65121 and the second limiting wall can prevent the correcting member 61 from shifting in the horizontal direction, thereby ensuring that the contact side of the correcting member 61 can abut against the battery cell without causing excessive pressure on the battery cell and causing damage to the battery cell when the preset displacement of the sixth power output member 642 remains unchanged.
[0104] Illustratively, the first threaded connector 652 is a bolt or a screw.
[0105] See also Figure 5 , the side of each correcting member 61 facing the other correcting member 61 is a clamping side 611, and the clamping side 611 is in a plane shape, and the clamping sides 611 of the two correcting members 61 are parallel. A plurality of first partitions 62 are fixedly provided on each clamping side 611 at equal intervals along the horizontal direction, and a first gap 621 is formed between adjacent first partitions 62 on each correcting member 61, and the first gap 621 on one correcting member 61 is arranged one-to-one with the first gap 621 on the other correcting member 61 to form a space for accommodating a battery cell. In this way, in the process of correcting the battery cell by the correcting mechanism 6, each battery cell enters the corresponding first gap 621 respectively, and the wall of the first gap 621 can also play a role in correcting the position of the battery cell, which is conducive to the correcting mechanism 6 to correct the position of the battery cell.
[0106] See also Figure 5 The sidewalls of the first separator 62 are curved, and the distance between the sidewalls of two adjacent first separators 62 decreases first and then increases along the direction perpendicular to the clamping side 611. In this way, the battery cell and the wall of the first gap 621 are in point contact, which is conducive to preventing the battery cell from being damaged by large friction with the wall of the first gap 621.
[0107] See also Figure 5 A guide tooth 63 is fixedly disposed on one side of each first partition 62 away from the clamping side 611, and a second gap 631 exists between two adjacent guide teeth 63 on the same correcting member 61, and the second gap 631 gradually widens in a direction gradually approaching another correcting member 61. In this way, even if the battery cell has a certain positional displacement, it can smoothly enter the first gap 621 under the guidance of the wall of the second gap 631, which is conducive to the correcting mechanism 6 to smoothly correct the position of the battery cell.
[0108] Preferably, the gap between two adjacent guide teeth 63 on the same correcting member 61 is in an eight-shaped shape.
[0109] See also Figure 5 The side wall of the guide tooth 63 is truncated cone or conical. In this way, even if the battery cell is displaced to a certain extent and contacts the wall of the second gap 631, the battery cell and the wall of the second gap 631 are only in point contact, which is conducive to preventing the battery cell from being damaged by large friction with the wall of the second gap 631.
[0110] The technical features of the above-described embodiments may be arbitrarily combined. To make the description concise, not all possible combinations of the technical features in the above-described embodiments are described. However, as long as there is no contradiction in the combination of these technical features, they should be considered to be within the scope of this specification.
[0111] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the utility model patent shall be based on the attached claims.
