Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in the field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0048] In the following embodiments, reference is made to Figure 1 , Fig.10 and Fig.11 The coordinate system is set with the direction pointed by the X-axis arrow as the right, the direction pointed by the Y-axis arrow as the front, and the direction pointed by the Z-axis arrow as the top.

[0049] Embodiment 1:

[0050] like Figures 1 to 13As shown, in this embodiment, a cover plate handling device 10 includes: a frame 700 with a material opening on the top surface, an automatic roller conveying mechanism 100 arranged below the frame 700, one end of which is used to convey the material-containing pallet group to the material lifting position, and the other end of which is used to convey the empty pallet group; and a Z-axis lifting mechanism 200, one end of which is used to lift the material-containing pallet group on the material lifting position to the upper material position, and the other end of which is used to lower the empty pallet at the lower material position to the other end of the automatic roller conveying mechanism 100; and a Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 connected to the frame 700. On top: an X-axis transporting and clamping mechanism 300, arranged above the material port, for fixing the uppermost material-containing tray at the loading position, and transporting the empty tray to the unloading position; a Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400, arranged above the X-axis transporting and clamping mechanism 300, for removing multiple cover plates from the uppermost material-containing tray, and discharging the material by changing the distance after reaching the material discharging position; and a Y-axis transporting mechanism 500, whose output end is connected to the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400, for driving the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 to approach the material discharging position.

[0051] Specifically, a material port is provided on the upper end face of the frame 700, and an entrance and an exit are provided on the front side of the frame 700. The entrance, lifting position and loading position are arranged at the left end, and the exit and unloading position are arranged at the right end. The loading position and unloading position are correspondingly arranged on the frame 700 and arranged in parallel for loading and unloading of pallets; the lifting position is correspondingly arranged on the automatic roller transport mechanism 100 and is arranged opposite to the loading position so as to vertically lift the pallet group with material on the lifting position to the loading position. The automatic roller transport mechanism 100 and the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 are arranged below the material port and connected to the frame 700. The left end working part of the automatic roller transport mechanism 100 transports the material-containing tray group in, and the right end working part transports the empty tray group out; the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 is arranged at the rear side of the frame 700, and the left end working part of the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 is used to transport the material-containing tray group from the lifting position to the loading position, and the right end working part is used to transport the empty tray from the unloading position to the right end of the automatic roller transport mechanism 100. The X-axis transport and clamping mechanism 300 can move left and right. The X-axis transport and clamping mechanism 300 is installed on the periphery of the material port. In the initial state, the working part is arranged at the loading position to fix and clamp the uppermost material-containing tray at the loading position, and moves right after the cover plate in the material-containing tray is removed, so that the empty tray on the working part can be transported to the unloading position. The Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 is installed on the Y-axis transport mechanism 500. The Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400: in the initial position, the clamping distance of the working part corresponds to the distance between the cover plates on the pallet. When reaching the discharge position, the clamping distance of the working part is changed to correspond to the discharge distance. The Y-axis transport mechanism 500 is installed on the front and rear sides of the X-axis transport and clamping mechanism 300. The Y-axis transport mechanism 500 transports the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 to move forward and backward, thereby approaching or moving away from the tooling mechanism 600.

[0052] It is worth noting that when loading materials, multiple material-containing pallets are manually stacked into a material-containing pallet group, and the material-containing pallet group is placed at the left end of the automatic roller conveyor mechanism 100 from the entrance. The left end working component of the automatic roller conveyor mechanism 100 is actuated to transport the material-containing pallet group to the material lifting position. The left end working component of the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 lifts the material-containing pallet group on the material lifting position to the top and then stops. At this time, the uppermost material-containing pallet reaches the loading position, and the working component of the X-axis transport and clamping mechanism 300 clamps and sucks the uppermost material-containing pallet. At this time, the Z-axis The left end working part of the lifting mechanism 200 descends to avoid, and the working part of the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 descends at this time, and clamps the 6 cover plates in the fixed material tray at one time, and rises and resets after clamping. The Y-axis conveying mechanism 500 drives the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 to move above the tooling mechanism 600. When it arrives, the working part of the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 begins to change the distance, and descends to place the cover plate onto the tooling mechanism 600. After the placement is completed, the working part of the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 rises and resets, and changes Return to the initial clamping distance, the Y-axis transport mechanism 500 drives the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 to the top of the material tray, and the working part of the Z-axis lifting and clamping mechanism 400 descends to the material tray to clamp the cover plate, and this is repeated until the cover plate in the material tray is taken out. After the cover plate is taken out, the empty tray is moved right to the unloading position by the working part of the X-axis transport and clamping mechanism 300, and the right end working part of the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 receives the empty tray and then descends. At the same time, the X-axis transport and clamping mechanism 300 moves left to reach the loading position; the left end working part of the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 The working part drives the top material-containing tray to rise to the loading position and then stops. After that, the working part of the X-axis handling and clamping mechanism 300 clamps and sucks the top material-containing tray. At this time, the left end of the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 drops, and this is repeated until all the material-containing tray groups on the left end working part of the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 are emptied, and the empty tray groups are transported to the right end working part of the automatic roller conveying mechanism 100. At this time, the right end working part of the automatic roller conveying mechanism 100 moves, so that all empty trays can be transported to the exit. After that, a new round of material-containing tray groups are transported from the entrance to the lifting position through the left end working part of the automatic roller conveying mechanism 100, and this is repeated to complete the entire action. In this way, the present application solves the problem that the battery cover plate can only be operated manually in the past, with low efficiency and poor quality. Manually, only the material-containing tray group needs to be placed on the roller line to complete the assembly, which is efficient and accurate.

[0053] Example 2

[0054] This embodiment is a further implementation of embodiment 1. Figures 1 to 7As shown, in the present embodiment, the automatic roller transport mechanism 100 includes a support assembly 110 for positioning a plurality of pallets, a roller conveying assembly 120 and two lifting and transverse shifting assemblies 130 for shifting the support assembly 110 on the roller conveying assembly 120. The support assembly 110 is rollingly arranged on the roller conveying assembly 120, and the two lifting and transverse shifting assemblies 130 are installed in parallel below the roller conveying assembly 120 and are staggered with the rollers on the roller conveying assembly 120 so as to lift up the support assembly 110 and then drive the support assembly 110 to move transversely.

[0055] Specifically, the support assembly 110 is used to limit the position of the tray group, and the support assembly 110 can be movably placed on the roller conveying assembly 120. The left rear side of the roller conveying assembly 120 is set as the material lifting position, and the left working part of the roller conveying assembly 120 is used to transport the material tray group from front to back, and the right working part is used to transport the empty tray group from back to front. A lifting and lateral movement assembly 130 is installed below the left end of the roller conveying assembly 120, and another lifting and lateral movement assembly 130 is installed below the right end of the roller conveying assembly 120, and both lifting and lateral movement assemblies 130 are arranged at the rear. During operation: manually put the material-containing tray group into a support assembly 110. At this time, the support assembly 110 is located at the left end. The support assembly 110 is then placed on the left end working component of the roller conveyor assembly 120. The left end working component of the roller conveyor assembly 120 transports it to the rear end for loading. When the material-containing trays at the left end are all taken out, the right end working component of the roller conveyor assembly 120 moves to transport the other support assembly 110 filled with empty trays to the exit and is taken away manually. Then the two lifting and transverse moving assemblies 130 are lifted up and start to move transversely, so that the support assembly 110 at the left end is transferred to the lifting and transverse moving assembly 130 at the left end, and moves to the lifting and transverse moving assembly 130 at the right end under the transverse movement. After being in place, the two lifting and transverse moving assemblies 130 stop moving transversely and descend to the bottom of the roller conveyor assembly 120, so that the support assembly 110 that was once at the left end of the roller conveyor assembly 120 can be moved to the right end to wait for the empty pallet to receive the unloading position, and a new round of support assemblies 110 are placed on the left end working part of the roller conveyor assembly 120 and moved to the rear end, and so on.

[0056] like Figure 4 As shown, in some embodiments, the support assembly 110 includes a bracket 111 and an ejector seat 112 , and the ejector seat 112 is installed in the bracket 111 .

[0057] Specifically, the bracket 111 is mainly composed of four limit plates and a support plate. The four limit plates are installed on the four sides of the support plate, and the four limit plates are spaced apart from the ejection seat 112 to facilitate the Z-axis lifting mechanism 200 to lift the material from the space, and the limit plates are set as L-shaped plates.

[0058] like Figure 4As shown, further, a handle 113 is provided on the bracket 111. The limit plate, the handle 113 and the ejection seat 112 are all fixed on the bracket with screws, spring washers and flat washers.

[0059] like Figure 4 As shown, further, an inclined guide plate is provided at the upper end of the limiting plate to provide guidance when the tray is lifted.

[0060] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 5 As shown, in some embodiments, the roller conveying assembly 120 includes a left-end driver, a frame 121, a right-end driver, a left-end roller group 122 and a right-end roller group 123, the left-end roller group 122 and the right-end roller group 123 are rotatably arranged at the two ends of the frame 121, respectively, and the output end of the left-end driver is connected to the left-end roller group 122, and the output end of the right-end driver is connected to the right-end roller group 123, and two lifting and transverse shifting assemblies 130 are respectively installed below the left-end roller group 122 and the right-end roller group 123.

[0061] Specifically, the frame 121 includes two roller frames and six legs. The two roller frames are arranged in parallel, and the six legs support and position the two roller frames. The left roller group 122 rotates on the roller frame at the left end. The left roller group 122 includes a plurality of rollers arranged in parallel front and back, which are driven by the left end driver to transport the support assembly 110 from front to back; the right roller group 123 rotates on the roller frame at the right end. The right roller group 123 includes a plurality of rollers arranged in parallel front and back, which are driven by the right end driver to transport the support assembly 110 from back to front. The left end driver and the right end driver are configured as motors, and the electrodes and other components cooperate to drive the multiple rollers to move synchronously, which is known to those skilled in the art and can be implemented, and will not be described in detail in this embodiment.

The fixed frame 131 is connected to the roller conveying assembly 120 . The lifting unit 132 is installed on the fixed frame 131 , and the output end of the lifting unit 132 is connected to the transverse movement unit 133 .

[0063] Specifically, the fixing frame 131 is fixed to the corresponding roller frame with screws, spring washers and flat washers, and the lateral movement unit 133 is driven to rise or fall through the lifting unit 132, so that the lateral movement unit 133 can protrude from the roller surface, thereby facilitating the lateral movement unit 133 to move the support assembly 110.

[0064] Among them, Figure 7 As shown, the lifting unit 132 includes a bearing 1322, a guide shaft 1323 and a lifting driver 1321. The lifting driver 1321 is set as a cylinder. The fixing frame 131 is provided with a guide hole and a through hole. The lifting driver 1321 and the bearing 1322 are fixed to the fixing frame 131 with screws, spring washers and flat washers. The bearing 1322 is set corresponding to the guide hole. The guide shaft 1323 passes through the bearing 1322 and the guide hole to connect with the transverse unit 133, and the guide shaft 1323 slides in the bearing 1322 and the guide hole. The output end of the lifting driver 1321 passes through the through hole to connect with the transverse unit 133 to drive the transverse unit 133 to move upward in a certain direction. Among them, the way in which the cylinder drives the transverse unit 133 to rise and fall is known to those skilled in the art and can be realized, and is not described in detail in this embodiment.

This prevents the lateral movement unit 133 from excessively moving upward. The two guide shafts 1323, the two bearings 1322, the buffer block 1324, the buffer rubber 1325 and the plate body are provided as a guide unit, and the guide units are provided in two and are distributed on the left and right sides of the fixing frame 131.

[0066] like Figure 1 , Figure 6 and Figure 7As shown, the transverse movement unit 133 includes a base plate 1331, two fixed blocks 1332, a transverse movement driver 1333, a synchronous wheel 1334, a synchronous belt 1335, a main shaft 1336 and two flat belts 1337, and the transverse movement driver 1333 is configured as a motor. A notch is provided at the bottom of the fixed frame 131, and the transverse driving driver 1333 is fixed at the notch through a plate body.

Rotating holes are provided on the two fixed blocks 1332, and the two ends of the main shaft 1336 are rotatably arranged in the two rotating holes, and the front and rear ends of the main shaft 1336 are protruded from the outer surface of the fixed block 1332. The middle end of the main shaft 1336 rotates synchronously with the synchronous wheel 1334 through a synchronous belt 1335, and each flat belt 1337 is sleeved on all the rollers 1338 at one end and one end of the main shaft 1336.
