Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery cell production, in particular to a fully automatic battery cell closing mechanism. Background Art

[0002] In the production process of battery cells, cell joining is a very important step. The traditional method of joining cells is that workers usually join two battery cells manually. However, the positioning accuracy of manual joining is poor, which can easily lead to misalignment of the battery cells after joining. In addition, the battery cells have a certain weight, which makes it difficult for workers to control the strength when joining the cells. It is easy to cause the impact force of the two battery cells to be too large when joining, causing safety hazards. Utility Model Content

[0006] Preferably, two rotating shafts are fixedly mounted on opposite sides of the two brackets, and hinge plates are sleeved on the shaft bodies of each two opposite rotating shafts.

[0007] Preferably, a connecting seat is fixedly installed on one side of one of the brackets, and a motor is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting seat away from the bracket, the motor output shaft passes through the connecting seat and is sleeved with a first gear, and one end of the two rotating shafts close to the motor passes through the corresponding brackets and is sleeved with a second gear, and the first gear is meshed with one of the second gears.

[0008] Preferably, the positioning assembly comprises a limit plate, and the limit plate is fixedly mounted on one side of the upper surface of the corresponding hinge plate;

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0020] The following will be combined with the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0021] like Figure 1 , Figure 2 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 As shown, the fully automatic battery cell closing mechanism includes two brackets 1, two hinge plates 2 are movably installed between the two brackets 1, two support platforms 201 are fixedly installed in the middle of the upper surface of the two hinge plates 2, battery cells 202 are placed together on the upper surface of every two adjacent support platforms 201, and positioning components 3 for clamping and positioning the hinges are installed on the upper surfaces of the two hinge plates 2.

[0022] Two rotating shafts 101 are fixedly mounted on opposite sides of the two brackets 1 , and hinge plates 2 are sleeved on the shaft bodies of each two opposite rotating shafts 101 .

[0023] A connecting seat 102 is fixedly installed on one side of one of the brackets 1, and a motor 103 is fixedly installed on the side of the connecting seat 102 away from the bracket 1. The output shaft of the motor 103 passes through the connecting seat 102 and is sleeved with a first gear 104. One end of the two rotating shafts 101 close to the motor 103 passes through the corresponding brackets 1 and is sleeved with a second gear 105. The first gear 104 is meshed with one of the second gears 105. The staff operates the manipulator to place the battery cell 202 on the corresponding support platform 201, and then the staff starts the positioning component 3, so that the positioning component 3 clamps and positions the battery cell 202, and then the staff starts the motor 103, and the first gear 104 rotates with the output shaft of the motor 103 as the reference, so that the two second gears 105 rotate relatively, and then the two hinge plates 2 rotate relatively with the corresponding rotating shaft 101 as the reference, when the hinge plate 2 rotates from the horizontal to the vertical position, the battery cell 202 is tightened. Compared with the method of manually closing the core by workers, the battery cell 202 is positioned by the positioning component 3 to avoid misalignment after the core is closed. At the same time, under the transmission action of the first gear 104 and the second gear 105, the hinge plate 2 rotates smoothly to avoid excessive impact when the two battery cells 202 are closed, thereby preventing the occurrence of safety hazards.

[0024] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 As mentioned above, it can be understood that in the present application, the positioning assembly 3 includes a limiting plate 301 , and the limiting plate 301 is fixedly mounted on one side of the upper surface of the corresponding hinge plate 2 .

[0025] A cylinder 302 is fixedly installed on the other side of the upper surface of the hinge plate 2, and a top plate 303 is fixedly installed on the output end of the cylinder 302. The staff will control the manipulator to place the battery cell 202 on the corresponding support platform 201, and then the staff will start the cylinder 302 so that its output end drives the top plate 303 to move. Under the cooperation of the top plate 303 and the limiting plate 301, the battery cell 202 is clamped and positioned between the top plate 303 and the limiting plate 301.

[0026] like Figure 1 , Figure 5 As shown, it should be noted that a support plate 401 is fixedly installed between the two brackets 1 through the mounting frame 4. A groove 402 is provided on the upper surface of the support plate 401. After the core is closed, the output end of the cylinder 302 retracts, and after the top plate 303 is separated from the battery cell 202, the support plate 401 can protect the battery cell 202, and prevent the battery cell 202 from falling directly to the ground after being separated from the support platform 201, and prevent the battery cell 202 from being damaged. By providing the groove 402, the battery cell 202 is prevented from tipping over when standing on the support plate 401, and the battery cell 202 is further prevented from being damaged.

[0027] The working principle of the fully automatic battery cell closing mechanism:

[0028] When in use, the staff controls the manipulator to place the battery cell 202 on the corresponding support platform 201, and then the staff starts the cylinder 302, so that its output end drives the top plate 303 to move, and under the cooperation of the top plate 303 and the limit plate 301, the battery cell 202 is clamped and positioned between the top plate 303 and the limit plate 301, and then the staff starts the motor 103, and the first gear 104 rotates with the output shaft of the motor 103 as the reference, so that the two second gears 105 rotate relative to each other, and then the two hinge plates 2 rotate relative to each other with the corresponding rotating shaft 101 as the reference, and when the hinge plate 2 rotates from the horizontal position to the vertical position, the battery cell 202 is tightened.

[0029] The above embodiments of the present invention are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present invention, and are not limitations on the implementation methods of the present invention. For ordinary technicians in the relevant field, other different forms of changes or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is impossible to list all the implementation methods here. All obvious changes or modifications derived from the technical solution of the present invention are still within the protection scope of the present invention.
