[0032] In order to make the content of the utility model more clearly understood, the utility model is further described in detail below according to specific implementation methods and in combination with the accompanying drawings.

[0033] Figure 1 A schematic diagram of the structure of a battery testing feeding device provided in an embodiment of the present application. The device includes a storage frame 2, a feeding assembly, a discharging assembly, a first lifting drive assembly, a second lifting drive assembly, a battery handling assembly, and a tray 10 handling assembly. Among them, a tray 10 storing batteries to be tested is placed in the feeding assembly. The battery handling assembly is used to take out the batteries to be tested in the first tray one by one. The tray 10 handling assembly is used to transport the empty tray in the feeding assembly to the discharging assembly.

[0034] Specifically, the storage frame 2 is arranged on the working table of the frame 1. Figure 2 The storage frame 2 includes a rectangular bottom plate 19 fixedly mounted on the workbench. Two limiting side plates 20 are fixedly mounted at both ends of the rectangular bottom plate 19 in the length direction, and the limiting side plates 20 are arranged in the vertical direction. A limiting partition plate 21 is fixedly mounted in the middle of the rectangular bottom plate 19 in the length direction, and the limiting partition plate 21 is also arranged in the vertical direction. The limiting partition plate 21 divides the area in the storage frame 2 into a feeding area 3 and a discharging area 4.

[0035] The cross-sections of the feed area 3 and the discharge area 4 are both roughly rectangular. The two wide sides of the feed area 3 are flush with the two long sides of the rectangular bottom plate 19, one long side of the feed area 3 is flush with the inner side of the adjacent limiting side plate 20, and the other long side of the feed area 3 is flush with the adjacent side of the limiting partition 21. The two wide sides of the discharge area 4 are also flush with the two long sides of the rectangular bottom plate 19, one long side of the discharge area 4 is flush with the inner side of the adjacent limiting side plate 20, and the other long side of the discharge area 4 is flush with the adjacent side of the limiting partition 21.

[0036] The storage frame 2 is also provided with a feed port 17 connected to the feed area 3 and a discharge port 18 connected to the discharge area 4, see Figure 1 The feed port 17 is located at one end of the feed area 3 in the length direction, the discharge port 18 is located at one end of the discharge area 4 in the length direction, and the feed port 17 and the discharge port 18 are located on the same side of the storage frame 2. Since the feed port 17 and the discharge port 18 are located on the same side of the storage frame 2, the operator does not need to move when feeding and discharging, thereby reducing the labor intensity of the operator.

[0037] The feed assembly comprises a first slide rail 5 fixedly mounted in the feed area 3. Figure 2 Two first slide rails 5 are provided, and both first slide rails 5 extend along the length direction of the feeding area 3. A first placement plate 6 is slidably mounted on the first slide rail 5, and the first placement plate 6 is used to place a first material tray storing batteries to be tested.

[0038] It should be noted that when the first placement plate 6 slides along the first slide rail 5 , the first placement plate 6 can slide to the outside of the feed area 3 through the feed port 17 , so as to place the first tray storing the batteries to be tested on the first placement plate 6 .

[0039] The discharge assembly includes a second slide rail 7 fixedly mounted in the discharge area 4. Figure 2 , two second slide rails 7 are also provided, and both second slide rails 7 extend along the length direction of the material discharging area. That is, the second slide rail 7 is parallel to the first slide rail 5. A second placement plate 8 is slidably mounted on the second slide rail 7, and the second placement plate 8 is used to place a second material tray (i.e., an empty material tray) that does not store batteries to be tested. It can be understood that when all batteries to be tested in the first material tray are taken out, the first material tray becomes the second material tray (i.e., an empty material tray).

[0040] It should be noted that when the second placement plate 8 slides along the second slide rail 7 , the second placement plate 8 can slide to the outside of the discharge area 4 through the feed port 17 , making it easy to remove the second tray (ie, the empty tray) from the second placement plate 8 .

[0041] Preferably, a handle assembly 15 is fixedly installed on one end of the first placement plate 6 adjacent to the feed port 17 and on one end of the second placement plate 8 adjacent to the discharge port 18 to facilitate operators to push and pull the first placement plate 6 and the second placement plate 8.

[0042] The first lifting drive assembly is used to drive the first material tray located on the first placement plate 6 to rise and fall. Figure 2 The first lifting drive assembly includes a first lifting rail 9 fixedly mounted in the feeding area 3. The first lifting rail 9 is located at one end of the length direction of the feeding area 3, that is, the first lifting rail 9 is arranged opposite to the feeding port 17. The first lifting rail 9 extends in the vertical direction. A first lifting seat is slidably mounted on the first lifting rail 9. The first lifting seat is lifted and lowered along the first lifting rail 9 under the drive of the first driving device. A first lifting plate is fixedly mounted on the first lifting seat, and the first lifting plate is located in the feeding area 3.

[0043] A first groove 13 is formed on the first placement plate 6 , and the first groove 13 extends from one end of the first placement plate 6 adjacent to the first lifting rail 9 toward the inside of the first placement plate 6 .

[0044] When the first lifting plate is at the lowest position, that is, in the initial state, the first lifting plate is at the same height as the first placement plate 6 or the first lifting plate is slightly lower than the first placement plate 6, and the first lifting plate is located in the first groove 13. In this way, when the first placement plate 6 moves along the first slide rail 5 to the outside of the feeding area 3, the movement of the first placement plate 6 will not affect the first lifting plate. When the first material tray is placed on the first placement plate 6, and the first placement plate 6 moves along the first slide rail 5 into the feeding area 3, the first lifting plate is located below the first material tray. At this time, the first lifting plate can drive the first material tray to rise to a certain height, which is convenient for the battery handling assembly to take out the batteries to be tested in the first material tray, and when the first lifting plate is raised or lowered, the first placement plate 6 will not affect the raising or lowering of the first lifting plate.

[0045] The second lifting drive assembly is used to drive the second material tray located on the second placement plate 8 to rise and fall. Figure 2 The second lifting drive assembly includes a second lifting rail 11 fixedly installed in the discharge area 4. The second lifting rail 11 is located at one end of the discharge area 4 in the length direction, that is, the second lifting rail 11 is arranged opposite to the discharge port 18. The second lifting rail 11 extends in the vertical direction. A second lifting seat is slidably installed on the second lifting rail 11, and the second lifting seat is lifted and lowered along the second lifting rail 11 under the drive of the second driving device. A second lifting plate 12 is fixedly installed on the second lifting seat, and the second lifting plate 12 is located in the discharge area 4.

[0046] A second groove 14 is formed on the second placement plate 8 , and the second groove 14 extends from one end of the second placement plate 8 adjacent to the second lifting rail 11 toward the inside of the second placement plate 8 .

[0047] When the second lifting plate 12 is at the lowest position, that is, in the initial state, the second lifting plate 12 is at the same height as the second placement plate 8 or the second lifting plate 12 is slightly lower than the second placement plate 8, and the second lifting plate 12 is located in the second groove 14. In this way, when the second placement plate 8 moves along the second slide rail 7 to the outside of the discharge area 4, the movement of the second placement plate 8 will not affect the second lifting plate 12. At the same time, when the second lifting plate 12 is raised or lowered, the second placement plate 8 will not affect the raising or lowering of the second lifting plate 12.

[0048] See also Figure 2 In this embodiment, the first placement plate 6 and the second placement plate 8 are both roughly U-shaped plates. The opening ends of the first placement plate 6 and the second placement plate 8 face the first lifting rail 9 and the second lifting rail 11 respectively. The cross-sections of the first groove 13 and the second groove 14 are both rectangular, and one end of the first groove 13 in the length direction is flush with one end of the first placement plate 6 in the length direction, and one end of the second groove 14 in the length direction is flush with one end of the second placement plate 8 in the length direction. The cross-sections of the first lifting plate and the second lifting plate 12 are also rectangular. The length and width of the first lifting plate are respectively smaller than the length and width of the first groove 13, and the length and width of the second lifting plate 12 are respectively smaller than the length and width of the second groove 14.

[0049] The battery handling assembly is used to take out the battery to be tested from the first tray. It is understandable that the battery handling assembly can adopt an existing battery handling device, which only needs to be able to take out the battery to be tested from the tray 10, and the specific structure is not repeated in this embodiment.

[0050] The tray handling assembly includes a manipulator assembly 16 mounted on a workbench. A tray clamp for clamping the tray 10 is provided at the end of the manipulator assembly 16. It should be noted that this embodiment does not require the structure of the tray clamp, but only needs to be able to clamp the tray 10. The specific structure is not repeated in this embodiment.

[0051] When the above-mentioned battery testing loading device is in use, the operator first stacks a plurality of first material trays in sequence to form a material pile, then pulls the first placement plate 6 out of the feeding area 3, places the material pile on the first placement plate 6, and then pushes the material pile into the feeding area 3. At this time, the first lifting drive assembly drives the first lifting plate to drive the material pile to move upward, so that the first material tray on the top layer of the material pile is at a height that is convenient for the battery handling assembly to take out the battery to be tested. After that, the first lifting drive assembly stops running, and the battery handling assembly takes out the batteries to be tested in the first material tray one by one. After all the batteries in the first material tray on the top layer of the material pile are taken out, the material tray handling assembly will change to the first material tray of the second material tray (i.e., the empty material tray) and transport it to the discharge area 4. At this time, there is no material tray 10 placed on the second placement plate 8, so the second lifting drive assembly will lift the second placement plate 8 to a suitable height in advance, so that the material tray handling assembly can stably place the empty material tray on the second placement plate 8. At the same time, the first lifting drive assembly drives the material pile to move upward, so that the first material tray on the top layer of the material pile is always kept at the same height, which is convenient for the battery handling assembly to take the material. Similarly, the second lifting drive assembly drives the second placement plate 8 to gradually move downward. When all the first material trays on the first placement plate 6 are changed into second material trays (i.e., empty material trays), and the second material trays are all placed on the second placement plate 8, the operator pulls the first placement plate 6 out of the feeding area 3, puts in a new material pile, then pulls the second placement plate 8 out of the discharging area 4, and removes all the second material trays. Then the above steps are repeated.

[0052] It should be noted that the first lifting drive assembly, the battery handling assembly and the second lifting drive assembly in the above-mentioned battery testing feeding device are all controlled by a controller to achieve automatic operation.

[0053] Therefore, the technical solution of the present application not only improves the efficiency of battery detection, but also greatly reduces the labor intensity of operators.

[0054] In addition to the above embodiments, the present invention may also have other implementation modes; any technical solutions formed by equivalent replacement or equivalent transformation shall fall within the protection scope required by the present invention.
