Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of fixture technology, and in particular to a spraying fixture suitable for horizontal reflow and vertical reflow. Background Technology

[0002] When spraying or cleaning battery cells, multiple battery cells are usually fixed on a fixture with a suction cup structure. Using a suction cup structure to fix the battery cells can minimize the contact area between the battery cells and the fixture, thereby improving the spraying or cleaning effect.

[0003] The suction cup structure requires an air source, which is currently mainly achieved by using a cable carrier. The cable carrier moves with the fixture, making the fixture unsuitable for horizontal or vertical reflow scenarios. While using a clamping structure to fix the battery cell makes the fixture suitable for reflow scenarios, the clamping structure results in multiple contacts between the battery cell and the fixture, making it inconvenient to spray or clean the battery cell.

[0004] Therefore, the applicant has made improvements based on the above and proposed a spraying fixture that is mainly fixed by a suction cup structure, and can also make the fixture applicable to horizontal and vertical reflow scenarios. Utility Model Content

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model proposes a spraying fixture suitable for horizontal and vertical recirculation, comprising a vacuum cylinder and a material fixture. The material fixture is provided with an air guide block having an air passage and at least one suction cup. One end of the air passage is connected to the suction cup, and the other end is connected to a check valve having a positive pressure channel and a negative pressure channel. The positive pressure channel and the negative pressure channel are respectively connected to the vacuum cylinder's vacuuming connector and vacuum breaking connector through hoses, so that the suction cup can be driven to suck up or release the battery cell by the extension and retraction of the vacuum cylinder piston rod.

[0007] Preferably, the material fixture is provided with four suction cups, and the material fixture is provided with a main connector communicating with the air passage and multiple sub-connectors. The number of sub-connectors corresponds to the number of suction cups. One end of the sub-connector is connected to the suction cup, and the other end is connected to the main connector, so that multiple sub-connectors are simultaneously connected to the air passage.

[0008] Preferably, the material fixture includes a base, the suction cup is fixed to the top of the base, the base has a receiving space with a front opening and a rear opening at the position corresponding to the lower part of the suction cup, the air guide block and the check valve are fixed to the bottom of the receiving space, the main connector and multiple sub-connectors are fixed to the top of the receiving space, and the multiple sub-connectors are distributed in a ring at intervals and surround the main connector therein.

[0009] Preferably, the main connector is in the shape of an "I" and has four first connecting ends for corresponding connection with the four sub-connectors. The main connector also has a second connecting end formed in the middle, which communicates with the air passage.

[0010] Preferably, the sub-connector is connected to the first connection end through a first pipe, or the sub-connector is directly connected to the first connection end.

[0011] Preferably, the second connection end is connected to the airway through a second pipe, or the second connection end is directly connected to the airway.

[0012] Preferably, the seat is U-shaped, with a support plate detachably fixed to the top of the seat and closing the opening at the top of the seat to form the receiving space, and the suction cup and the sub-connector are respectively fixed to the top and bottom walls of the support plate.

[0013] Preferably, the system also includes right-angled support feet, one end of which is screwed to the base body by bolts, and the other end of which is screwed to the support plate by bolts.

[0014] This utility model's technical solution includes a vacuum cylinder and a material fixture. The material fixture has at least one suction cup and an air guide block with an air passage. One end of the air passage is connected to the suction cup, and the other end is connected to a check valve. The positive pressure channel of the check valve is connected to the vacuuming connector of the vacuum cylinder via a hose, and the negative pressure channel of the check valve is connected to the vacuum breaking connector of the vacuum cylinder via a hose. The extension and retraction of the vacuum cylinder piston rod drives the suction cup to pick up or release the battery cell. The material fixture and the air source are connected via a flexible hose. During operation, the material fixture can be driven by a robotic arm or other driving mechanism to perform horizontal or vertical backflow movements without being limited by the air source (vacuum cylinder). The overall structure is simple and effectively improves practicality. Attached Figure Description
