DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all of the embodiments.

[0021] See also Figure 1-4 The utility model provides an embodiment: an energy storage battery box assembly machine, comprising: an assembly platform 1, a box cover assembly component 4 is arranged at the middle position above the assembly platform 1, an ultrasonic welding component 10 is arranged on one side of the box cover assembly component 4, the box cover assembly component 4 includes a support arm 7 installed at its front end, a first cylinder 8 for adsorbing the box cover is arranged on the support arm 7, a suction nozzle 9 is arranged at the adsorption end of the first cylinder 8, a lifting adjustment member 6 for adjusting the adsorption height is arranged at the rear end of the support arm 7, and an electric turntable 5 for adjusting the adsorption position is arranged below the lifting adjustment member 6.

[0022] The box cover is adsorbed by the first cylinder 8 and the suction nozzle 9, the position of the suction nozzle 9 is adjusted by the electric turntable 5, the adsorbed box cover is rotated and displaced, and the adsorption height is adjusted by the lifting adjustment member 6, so as to achieve the effect of adsorbing the box cover and placing the box cover on the box body.

[0023] Furthermore, the lifting and lowering adjustment member 6 includes a screw module for lifting and lowering the adsorption height. Specifically, the screw module includes a ball screw 21, a screw motor 20 is provided at the upper end of the ball screw 21, a screw slider 22 is provided on the outer wall of the ball screw 21, and the screw slider 22 is combined and installed with the rear end of the support arm 7.

[0024] The support arm 7 is driven to move up and down by moving the lead screw, and the adsorption height is adjusted by displacement. The height is adjusted before adsorption to contact the surface of the box cover. After adsorption, the box cover is adjusted to the box body to realize the combination of the box body and the box cover.

[0025] See also Figure 4A driving box 12 is provided at the front end of the ultrasonic welding assembly 10, an ultrasonic transducer 13 is provided inside the driving box 12, and the input end of the ultrasonic transducer 13 is electrically connected to the ultrasonic generator, a variable amplitude rod 14 is provided at the output end of the ultrasonic transducer 13, an extension rod 15 is provided at the lower end of the variable amplitude rod 14, an ultrasonic welding head 16 is provided at the lower end of the extension rod 15, and a second cylinder 11 for adjusting the welding height is provided above the driving box 12.

[0026] The 50 / 60 Hz current is converted into high-frequency electrical energy through the ultrasonic generator, and then the high-frequency electrical energy is converted into mechanical vibration through the ultrasonic transducer 13, and then the mechanical vibration is transmitted to the ultrasonic welding head 16 through the amplitude rod 14. The ultrasonic welding head 16 transmits the received vibration energy to the joint of the box cover and the box body to be welded. In this area, the vibration energy is converted into heat energy by friction to melt the material. When the ultrasonic wave stops working, a certain pressure is applied by the second cylinder 11 to solidify the molten material, thereby forming a strong molecular chain to achieve the purpose of welding.

The limit clamps 17 include a limit plate 18 for abutting against and limiting the displacement of the box body. An electric telescopic rod 19 is arranged at one end of the limit plate 18 for driving the limit plate 18 to move telescopically.

[0029] During the assembly and welding of the box cover and the box body, the spacing between the limit plates 18 is adjusted by the electric telescopic rod 19, and the two limit plates 18 are pressed against the surface of the box body to clamp and limit the box body, thereby improving the stability during the assembly process.

[0030] Working principle: When in use, the box body and the box cover are respectively transported to the box cover assembly component 4 by the first conveying mechanism 2 and the second conveying mechanism 3, the box cover is adsorbed by the first cylinder 8 and the suction nozzle 9, the position of the suction nozzle 9 is adjusted by the electric turntable 5, the adsorbed box cover is rotated and displaced, and the adsorption height is adjusted by the lifting adjustment member 6, so as to achieve the effect of adsorbing the box cover and placing the box cover on the box body;

[0031] After the box cover is assembled on the box body, the conveying mechanism moves forward again, so that the box body after the assembled box cover is moved under the ultrasonic welding assembly 10, and the new unassembled box cover and box body are moved to the box cover assembly assembly 4 for operation;

[0032] The 50 / 60 Hz current is converted into high-frequency electrical energy through the ultrasonic generator, and then the high-frequency electrical energy is converted into mechanical vibration through the ultrasonic transducer 13, and then the mechanical vibration is transmitted to the ultrasonic welding head 16 through the amplitude rod 14. The ultrasonic welding head 16 transmits the received vibration energy to the joint of the box cover and the box body to be welded. In this area, the vibration energy is converted into heat energy by friction to melt the material. When the ultrasonic wave stops working, a certain pressure is applied by the second cylinder 11 to solidify the molten material, thereby forming a strong molecular chain to achieve the purpose of welding assembly.
