[0025] An embodiment of the utility model provides a module cutting device, which belongs to the field of battery module disassembly. The battery module cutting device is used to cut battery modules to be disassembled. The module cutting device can alternately cut each module to avoid waiting for the module to be fixed, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency of the module.
[0026] In some preferred embodiments, the module cutting device includes a conveying component 100, a cutting component 200 and a plurality of clamping components 300, wherein the clamping components 300 are used to clamp the modules. The conveying component 100 includes a conveying member 110 and a plurality of distributing members 120 corresponding to the plurality of clamping components 300 one by one. The conveying member 110 conveys the modules to pass through the plurality of clamping components 300 in sequence. The distributing members 120 are installed on the conveying member 110 to convey the modules on the conveying member 110 to the clamping components 300. The cutting component 200 includes a mechanical arm 210 and a cutting member 220 of the cutting module. The mechanical arm 210 drives the cutting member 220 to alternately cut the modules clamped by each clamping component 300.
[0027] In the above embodiment, the module to be cut is first placed on the conveying member 110, and the conveying member 110 drives the module to reach the vicinity of the clamping assembly 300. Then, the dispensing member 120 is used to transport the battery module on the conveying member 110 to the clamping assembly 300, and the module is clamped and fixed by the clamping assembly 300, and finally, the cutting member 220 is driven by the mechanical arm 210 to cut the module. With the module cutting device provided by the utility model, since the cutting member 220 alternately cuts the modules clamped by each clamping assembly 300, during the process of the cutting member 220 cutting a certain module, the modules on other clamping assemblies 300 can be disassembled and assembled, avoiding the need for the cutting member 220 to wait for the disassembly and assembly operation of the module on the clamping assembly 300, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency of the module.
[0028] In some preferred embodiments, the clamping assembly 300 includes a base 310, a first driving member 320 and two clamps 330, the clamps 330 slide in a direction parallel to the conveying member 110, and the first driving member 320 drives the two clamps 330 to drive the two clamps 330 to move relative to each other.
[0029] In the above embodiment, the first driving member 320 drives the two clamping plates 330 to approach each other, so that the two clamping plates 330 can clamp the fixed module. The first driving member 320 drives the two clamping plates 330 to move away from each other, so that the fixed module can be released.
[0030] On the basis of the above embodiments, in some preferred embodiments, the first driving member 320 includes a first cylinder 321, a gear 322 and two racks 323, the rack 323 is slidably disposed on the base 310, and the two racks 323 are respectively connected to two clamping plates 330, the gear 322 is rotatably installed on the base 310, and the gear 322 is located between the two racks 323 and is respectively engaged with the two racks 323, and the first cylinder 321 is transmission-connected to one of the racks 323 to drive the rack 323 to move relative to the base 310.
[0031] In the above embodiment, the first cylinder 321 drives one of the racks 323 to translate, and under the transmission action of the gear 322, it can further drive the other rack 323 to translate. Since the gear 322 is located between the two racks 323, under the transmission action of the gear 322, the two racks 323 will translate in opposite directions, and further drive the two splints 330 to move relative to or away from each other.
[0032] In some preferred embodiments, the clamping assembly 300 also includes a baffle 340 and a second driving member 350.

[0033] In the above embodiment, the moving direction of the baffle 340 and the moving direction of the clamping plate 330 are perpendicular to each other, so that the baffle 340 can limit the module in another direction, thereby more effectively fixing the battery module.
[0034] In some preferred embodiments, the clamping assembly 300 further includes a plurality of push rods 360 and a third driving member 370.

The plurality of second active rollers 112 are rotatably installed on both sides of the gap, and the second active rollers 112 are perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveying member 110. The distribution member 120 is embedded in the gap. Each second active roller 112 is disposed on both sides of the gap, and the rotating second active rollers 112 can be used to drive the module to move relative to the frame 111, and the distribution member 120 is embedded in the gap. When the module is transported to the top of the distribution member 120, the distribution member 120 can deliver the module to the corresponding clamping assembly 300 for clamping and fixing.

[0040] Each second active roller 112 is disposed on both sides of the gap, and the rotating second active roller 112 can drive the module to move relative to the frame 111, and the distribution member 120 is embedded in the gap. When the module is transported to the top of the distribution member 120,
[0041] The lifting seat 121 slides in the vertical direction, so that the third active roller 122 supports the module. Since the third active roller 122 is perpendicular to the second active roller 112, the battery module can be transported to the clamping assembly 300 through the third active roller 122. The first driving member 320 drives the two clamping plates 330 to approach each other, and then the two clamping plates 330 can be used to clamp the fixed module. The first driving member 320 drives the two clamping plates 330 away from each other, and then the fixed module can be released. Finally, the cutting member 220 can be driven by the mechanical arm 210 to cut the module. Using the module cutting device provided by the utility model, since the cutting member 220 alternately cuts the modules clamped by each clamping assembly 300, during the process of the cutting member 220 cutting a certain module, the modules on other clamping assemblies 300 can be disassembled and assembled, avoiding the need for the cutting member 220 to wait for the disassembly and assembly operation of the module on the clamping assembly 300, thereby improving the disassembly efficiency of the module.
