[0059] The present application provides a tape laminating device, which is described in detail below. It should be noted that the description order of the following embodiments does not limit the preferred order of the embodiments of the present application. In the following embodiments, the description of each embodiment has its own emphasis. For parts that are not described in detail in a certain embodiment, please refer to the relevant description of other embodiments.

[0060] Reference Figure 1 and Figure 2 The adhesive tape laminating device provided in the present application includes a mounting base 1, a turntable mechanism 2, a glue-tearing mechanism 3 and a transfer mechanism 4 installed on the mounting base 1. Among them, a positioning fixture 21 for fixing the adhesive tape is provided on the turntable mechanism 2, and the adhesive tape is rotated from the feeding station 22 to the glue-tearing station 23 and the laminating station 24 in sequence through the turntable mechanism 2. In addition, a glue-tearing mechanism 3 and a transfer mechanism 4 are provided in sequence along the rotation direction of the turntable mechanism 2. The glue-tearing mechanism 3 and the transfer mechanism 4 are both installed on the mounting base 1 and located on the outer peripheral side of the turntable mechanism 2. The glue-tearing mechanism 3 is arranged close to the glue-tearing station 23, and can perform a peeling process on the adhesive tape at the glue-tearing station 23 to tear off the release layer on the surface of the adhesive tape. The transfer mechanism 4 is used to transport the battery to the laminating station 24 and paste the battery to the adhesive tape.

[0061] Compared with the prior art, the adhesive tape of the present application is first rotated from the feeding station 22 to the adhesive peeling station 23 through the turntable mechanism 2, and then is peeled off at the adhesive peeling station 23 through the adhesive peeling mechanism 3 to tear off the release layer on the adhesive tape, so that the adhesive surface on the adhesive tape is exposed. After the release layer is torn off, the adhesive tape continues to rotate to the laminating station 24 through the turntable mechanism 2, and the transport mechanism 4 is used to transport the battery to paste the battery to the adhesive surface of the adhesive tape. On the one hand, the adhesive peeling operation of the present application is performed by the adhesive peeling mechanism 3, and the force for tearing off the release layer of the adhesive tape is a fixed value, and the force is easy to control, which is conducive to ensuring the size of the adhesive tape after the adhesive peeling. On the other hand, the adhesive peeling operation is automated by the adhesive peeling mechanism 3, and the efficiency of the adhesive peeling operation performed by the adhesive peeling mechanism 3 is high, which is conducive to improving production efficiency.

[0062] It can be understood that when the above-mentioned adhesive tape laminating device is used, the turntable mechanism 2 has a feeding station 22, a glue peeling station 23, a laminating station 24 and a material unloading station 25 in sequence. At the laminating station 24, the battery is firstly laminated to the adhesive tape fixed in the positioning fixture 21 in the turntable mechanism 2, and then the turntable mechanism 2 continues to rotate one station and then rotates to the unloading station 25, and then the finished battery with the battery affixed to the adhesive tape is conveyed and unloaded by the unloading conveying mechanism. That is, the above-mentioned feeding, glue peeling and laminating actions are all performed on the turntable mechanism 2. In other words, the above-mentioned operations are all located at the same workstation. During this period, the adhesive tape does not need to be transported. The adhesive tape and the positioning fixture 21 carrying the adhesive tape only need to follow the rotation of the turntable mechanism 2 to switch stations, which is conducive to improving production efficiency.

[0063] Among them, the above-mentioned adhesive tape is provided with at least two positioning holes, and the positioning fixture 21 is provided with at least two positioning posts. The at least two positioning holes correspond to the positioning posts on the positioning fixture 21 one by one, which can ensure that the adhesive tape can be accurately placed and positioned in the positioning fixture 21.

[0064] In some embodiments of the present application, the above-mentioned glue peeling mechanism 3 includes a mounting frame, a moving assembly and a clamping claw assembly. The mounting frame is fixedly mounted on the mounting base 1 and is located on the outer peripheral side of the turntable mechanism 2 and is arranged near the glue peeling station 23. The moving assembly includes a screw and a nut matched with the screw thread, and a driving motor for driving the screw to rotate. The screw is arranged on the mounting frame. A slide rail is arranged on the mounting frame. The slide rail matches with the nut so that the nut can only move along the extension direction of the slide rail. The extension directions of the above-mentioned slide rail and the screw are consistent. The pressing claw assembly is connected to the nut to move synchronously with the nut along the slide rail. The pressing claw assembly includes a cylinder and a glue peeling pressing claw connected to the cylinder. The above-mentioned cylinder can drive the glue peeling pressing claw to switch back and forth between a clamped state and a loosened state. In specific use, the pressing claw assembly moves towards the glue peeling station 23 under the drive of the moving assembly, so that the glue peeling pressing claw is close to the release layer on the adhesive tape, and then the cylinder drives the glue peeling pressing claw to switch to a clamped state to clamp the release layer on the adhesive tape for tearing and peeling. After tearing off the release paper layer, the cylinder drives the glue peeling pressure claw to switch to the loose state to loosen the release paper, and drives the pressure claw assembly to move away from the glue peeling station 23 through the moving assembly to prepare for the next peeling process.

[0065] It should be noted that the slide rail has a first end close to the glue peeling station 23 and a second end opposite to the first end, wherein the distance between the slide rail and the mounting base 1 gradually increases from the first end to the second end. In other words, the slide rail is tilted relative to the mounting base 1.

[0066] In some embodiments of the present application, the above-mentioned adhesive tape laminating device further includes a first visual positioning mechanism 5. The first visual positioning mechanism 5 is mounted on the mounting base and is disposed toward the laminating station 24, and is capable of detecting the positional offset of the adhesive tape at the laminating station 24. It should be noted that after the transport mechanism 4 affixes the battery to the adhesive tape, the first visual positioning mechanism 5 is also capable of detecting the laminating effect of the adhesive tape and the battery, wherein the transport mechanism 4 corrects the deviation of the battery according to the positional offset of the adhesive tape and then affixes the battery to the adhesive tape.

[0067] That is, the present application detects the position of the adhesive tape for tearing off the release layer at the next station of the adhesive peeling station 23, obtains the actual position information of the adhesive tape through the first visual positioning mechanism 5, obtains the position offset of the adhesive tape, and the transfer mechanism 4 corrects the battery according to the position offset of the adhesive tape, that is, adjusts the relative position relationship between the battery and the adhesive tape to ensure that the battery can be aligned with the adhesive tape and pasted together, and prevents the subsequent functional test mismeasurement, poor size detection and other problems caused by the battery and the adhesive tape being pasted skewed. In addition, the first visual positioning mechanism 5 realizes the precise positioning of the adhesive tape, which is not limited by mechanical positioning, does not require personnel to repeatedly debug and analyze, and realizes effective fool prevention while releasing the manpower of fixed personnel and fixed positions.

[0068] At the same time, after the battery is pasted to the adhesive tape, the first visual positioning mechanism 5 can also detect the bonding effect of the adhesive tape and the battery, thereby marking the battery that is missed or pasted off-center, and automatically re-projecting and re-photographing the bonding. In other words, the present application realizes two functions through the first visual positioning mechanism 5, thereby realizing the multi-functional usage rate of the first visual positioning mechanism 5.

[0069] Continue to refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2 The turntable mechanism 2 includes a turntable body 26 and a turntable drive assembly connected to the turntable body 26, and the turntable drive assembly drives the turntable body 26 to rotate around its own axis. The turntable body 26 includes a first surface and a second surface arranged opposite to each other, the first surface carries the positioning fixture 21, and the turntable drive assembly is arranged on the side of the second surface of the turntable body 26 away from the first surface, wherein the first visual positioning mechanism 5 is located on the side of the second surface away from the first surface, the turntable body 26 is provided with a first transparent area 260, and the positioning fixture 21 is provided with a second transparent area 210 opposite to the first transparent area 260. In the bonding station 24, the first visual positioning mechanism 5 detects the position offset of the adhesive tape through the first transparent area 260 and the second transparent area 210.

[0070] It can be understood that the above-mentioned turntable drive assembly is located below the turntable body 26, and the above-mentioned first visual positioning mechanism 5 is arranged below the turntable body 26. When the first visual positioning mechanism 5 shoots (takes photos or videos) the tape, it shoots from bottom to top. By reasonably setting the installation position of the first visual positioning mechanism 5, it is prevented from interfering with the installation position and movement trajectory of the glue tearing mechanism 3, the transfer mechanism 4 and the transportation mechanism 6 mentioned below which are arranged on the outer peripheral side of the turntable body 26, which is helpful to simplify the design complexity of the above-mentioned tape laminating device, that is, there is no need to manually verify whether the first visual positioning mechanism 5 will interfere with the installation position and movement trajectory of the glue tearing mechanism 3, the transfer mechanism 4 and the transportation mechanism 6.

[0071] For example, Figure 3 As shown, the above-mentioned turntable body 26 of the present application is in the shape of a disk, and four positioning jigs 21 are arranged on it. The four positioning jigs 21 are arranged at equal angles around the center of the above-mentioned turntable body 26 on the first surface of the turntable body 26, and the turntable body 26 is provided with four first transparent areas 260 corresponding to the four positioning jigs 21, and each positioning jig 21 is provided with a second transparent area 210. The second transparent area 210 on each positioning jig 21 at least partially overlaps with the corresponding first transparent area 260 in horizontal projection.

[0072] Among them, the above-mentioned first transparent area 260 is configured as a first through hole provided on the turntable body 26. Alternatively, the above-mentioned first transparent area 260 is configured as the turntable body 26 is made of transparent material in this area. Alternatively, the above-mentioned turntable body 26 is made of transparent material as a whole. Similarly, the above-mentioned second transparent area 210 is configured as a second through hole provided on the positioning fixture 21. Alternatively, the above-mentioned second transparent area 210 is configured as the positioning fixture 21 is made of transparent material in this area. Alternatively, the above-mentioned positioning fixture 21 is made of transparent material as a whole.

[0073] Reference Figure 1 to Figure 3 The first visual positioning mechanism 5 includes a mounting seat 51, and a first camera 52 and a first light source 53 mounted on the mounting seat 51. The mounting seat 51 is arranged on the mounting base 1. The first light source 53 is arranged between the first camera 52 and the turntable body 26, and is arranged opposite to the first transparent area 260, so as to illuminate the adhesive tape through the first transparent area 260 and the second transparent area 210, improve the brightness, ensure the shooting quality of the first camera 52, and help to ensure that the first visual positioning mechanism 5 can accurately position the adhesive tape, so that the battery can be attached more accurately and the yield rate is high.

[0074] Among them, the above-mentioned mounting seat 51 is provided with two first cameras 52 and two first light sources 53, and the corresponding turntable body 26 is provided with two first transparent areas 260, and the positioning jig 21 is provided with two second transparent areas 210, and the two first transparent areas 260 and the two second transparent areas 210 respectively correspond to the two corners of the adhesive tape placed in the positioning jig 21.

[0075] In some embodiments of the present application, the adhesive tape laminating device further includes a transport mechanism 6 and a second visual positioning mechanism 7 mounted on the mounting base 1. The transport mechanism 6 includes a transport channel 61 and a fixing fixture provided on the transport channel 61, the fixing fixture is used to fix the battery, and the battery is transferred to the inspection station through the transport channel 61. The second visual positioning mechanism 7 is arranged close to the transport channel 61 and faces the inspection station, and the second visual positioning mechanism 7 detects the position offset of the battery at the inspection station, and the transfer mechanism 4 is arranged between the turntable mechanism 2 and the transport channel 61, and the transfer mechanism 4 corrects the battery according to the position offset of the battery and the position offset of the adhesive tape and then pastes it to the adhesive tape. Therefore, when the battery is transferred to the inspection station through the transportation channel 61, in order to improve the relative position accuracy between the above-mentioned battery when sticking the two to the adhesive tape, the second visual positioning mechanism 7 is used to capture the actual position information of the above-mentioned battery to obtain the position offset of the battery, and according to the position offset of the adhesive tape and the position offset of the battery, after the transfer mechanism 4 grabs the battery, the position or posture of the battery is adjusted, that is, the battery is corrected and then pasted on the adhesive tape, so that the pasting position between the two is more accurate, which is beneficial to improving the yield rate of the product.

[0076] In addition, the above-mentioned transportation mechanism 6 also includes a clamping assembly, which is arranged on the inspection station. When the battery is transferred to the inspection station through the fixing fixture that fixes it, the above-mentioned clamping assembly clamps and fixes the fixing fixture at the inspection station to ensure that the battery placed in the fixing fixture can be photographed by the second visual positioning mechanism 7, that is, the battery in the fixing fixture is located within the visual acquisition range of the second visual positioning mechanism 7.

[0077] Based on the above embodiment, the second visual positioning mechanism 7 includes a mounting bracket arranged near the transport channel 61, and a second camera and a second light source arranged on the mounting bracket, the mounting bracket is arranged on the mounting base 1 and is close to the detection station, the second light source is arranged facing the fixed fixture of the detection station and illuminates the battery, and the second camera is arranged on the side of the second light source facing away from the fixed fixture. For example, the mounting bracket is arranged on one side of the transport channel 61, and the second camera and the second light source are both mounted on the mounting bracket, and both are supported and fixed above the detection station by the mounting bracket. Among them, the second light source is used to provide illumination to the battery, which is conducive to improving the accuracy of the position offset of the battery obtained when the second camera shoots the battery.

[0078] In addition, the battery is provided with a positioning portion, and the second camera captures and obtains the position of the positioning portion, and determines the position offset of the battery according to the position of the positioning portion, so as to ensure that the position offset of the battery is relatively simple and convenient to obtain. By way of example, the battery includes a battery cell and a battery protection plate connected to the battery cell, and a positioning portion is provided on the battery protection plate, and the distance between the positioning portion and any side of the battery cell is captured and obtained, and the position offset of the battery can be obtained. For example, the positioning portion is a positioning hole provided on the battery protection plate, and the position of the positioning hole is not specifically limited in the present application. Alternatively, the positioning portion is a positioning column provided on the battery cell. It should be noted that two second cameras and two second light sources are provided on the mounting bracket of the second visual positioning mechanism 7.

[0079] Continue to refer to Figure 1 , Figure 4 and Figure 5 , the mounting base 1 is provided with a first identification mechanism 8 and / or a second identification mechanism 9, wherein the first identification mechanism 8 is arranged on the outer peripheral side of the turntable mechanism 2, and is arranged close to the glue peeling station 23, and can identify the identity information of the adhesive tape, and the second identification mechanism 9 is arranged on one side of the transport channel 61, and is arranged close to the detection station, and can identify the identity information of the battery. The above identity information is the QR code information or barcode information set on the adhesive tape and the battery. In specific use, when the adhesive tape is rotated to the glue peeling station 23 through the turntable mechanism 2, the first identification mechanism 8 identifies the identity information of the adhesive tape, and saves the identity information body or the above system. Similarly, when the battery moves to the detection station, the second identification mechanism 9 identifies the identity information of the battery, and saves or uploads the identity information body to the system. In this way, the function of recording the production information of the product is realized, and if there is a problem with the product in the future, it can be quickly traced and analyzed.

[0080] Among them, the first identification mechanism 8 includes a first bracket 81 and a first barcode scanner 82 arranged on the first bracket 81, or the first identification mechanism 8 includes a first bracket 81 and a first identification camera arranged on the first bracket 81. The second identification mechanism 9 includes a second bracket and a second barcode scanner arranged on the second bracket, or the second identification mechanism 9 includes a second bracket and a second identification camera arranged on the second bracket. If the second identification mechanism 9 includes a second bracket and a second identification camera arranged on the second bracket, that is, the identity information of the battery is obtained by the second identification camera, it is also possible not to set the second identification camera, and the second camera in the second visual positioning mechanism 7 can be used to collect and identify the identity information of the battery. That is, the second camera in the second visual positioning mechanism 7 shoots the battery, and the position offset and the identity information of the battery can be obtained at the same time. It can be understood that the first identification mechanism 8 and the second identification mechanism 9 can adopt the same structure.

[0081] In some embodiments of the present application, a transport mechanism 6 and a third visual positioning mechanism are provided on the mounting base 1, wherein the transport mechanism 6 includes a transport channel 61 and a fixing fixture provided on the transport channel 61, the fixing fixture is used to fix the battery, and the battery is transferred to the inspection station through the transport channel 61, and the third visual positioning mechanism is provided on the transfer mechanism 4, and the transfer mechanism 4 drives the third visual positioning mechanism to move between the bonding station 24 and the inspection station.

[0082] It should be noted that in this embodiment, it is optional to set the first visual positioning mechanism 5 and the second visual positioning mechanism 7.

[0083] If the first visual positioning mechanism 5 and the second visual positioning mechanism 7 are not provided, the third visual positioning mechanism can be driven by the transfer mechanism 4 to move between the laminating station 24 and the inspection station. When the third visual positioning mechanism moves to the laminating station 24, it is used to obtain the position offset of the adhesive tape, and when the third visual positioning mechanism moves to the inspection station, it is used to obtain the position offset of the battery. Thus, the position offset of both the battery and the adhesive tape can be obtained by only providing one third visual positioning mechanism, which is beneficial to reducing the manufacturing cost of the adhesive tape laminating device.

[0084] If the first visual positioning mechanism 5 and the second visual positioning mechanism 7 are provided, the third visual positioning mechanism can be driven to move between the laminating station 24 and the inspection station by the transfer mechanism 4. When the third visual positioning mechanism moves to the laminating station 24, it is used together with the first visual positioning mechanism 5 to obtain the position offset of the adhesive tape. When the third visual positioning mechanism moves to the inspection station, it is used together with the second visual positioning mechanism 7 to obtain the position offset of the battery. Thus, the position offset of both the battery and the adhesive tape can be obtained by only providing one third visual positioning mechanism, which is beneficial to reducing the manufacturing cost of the adhesive tape laminating device.

[0085] The transfer mechanism 4 includes a transfer manipulator, which grabs, releases or corrects the battery, and can drive the battery to move in any direction after grabbing the battery. Therefore, it is only necessary to purchase an existing robot on the market, and the transfer manipulator is configured as the manipulator of the robot, that is, the structure of the transfer mechanism 4 is easy to implement.

[0086] In some embodiments of the present application, Figure 5 As shown, the adhesive tape laminating device further includes a feeding mechanism 10 and a taking-up mechanism 20. The feeding mechanism 10 includes a feeding frame 101 and a plurality of bins 102 slidably arranged on the feeding frame 101. The feeding frame 101 includes a preparation area, a feeding area and a discharging area sequentially arranged along the sliding direction of the bins 102. The bins 102 are used to store the adhesive tape. The taking-up mechanism 20 is arranged between the feeding frame 101 and the turntable mechanism 2, and can take the adhesive tape from the feeding area and place it in the feeding station 22. The feeding mechanism 10 and the taking-up mechanism 20 are both arranged on the workbench 6.

[0087] During specific use, the above-mentioned preparation area will prepare the adhesive tape, and the adhesive tape in the feeding area will be picked up by the material taking mechanism 20 first. If the adhesive tape in the feeding area is picked up by the material taking mechanism 20, it will slide along the feeding frame 101 to the discharging area. At this time, the material bin 102 in the preparation area slides to the feeding area, and the material taking mechanism 20 continues to take the material to meet the gap period of the adhesive tape feeding. At this time, the material bin 102 in the discharging area can be loaded manually or by machine. After the material bin 102 in the discharging area is full of adhesive tape, it can be transported to the preparation area by manual or machine, thereby realizing the loading without stopping the machine, which is conducive to improving the production efficiency of the above-mentioned adhesive tape laminating device. Among them, the material bin 102 can be a box structure with an opening upward.

[0088] It can be understood that the specific working process of the above-mentioned adhesive tape laminating device of the present application is as follows: the material taking mechanism 20 takes the adhesive tape from the feeding mechanism 10 and places it on the feeding station 22 on the turntable. The turntable mechanism 2 rotates 90° to the glue peeling station 23, and the glue peeling mechanism 3 tears off the release layer on the top of the adhesive tape. The turntable mechanism 2 continues to rotate 90° to the laminating station 24, and the first visual positioning mechanism 5 photographs it for precise positioning. At the same time, the battery placed in the fixed fixture is transported to the inspection station through the transportation channel 61. The second visual positioning mechanism 7 photographs the position of the positioning hole on the battery protection plate in the battery for precise positioning. The transport mechanism 4 grabs the battery and corrects the battery, and then laminates the battery on the adhesive tape. After the laminating of the two is completed, the first visual positioning mechanism 5 photographs the finished battery after laminating again to confirm the laminating position between the two, and conducts a self-inspection of the effect.

[0089] In addition, the tape position compensation value obtained based on the tape position offset, the battery position compensation value obtained based on the battery position offset, the identity information of the battery and tape, the detection time, the number of monitoring times and other information are uploaded to the system for subsequent traceability analysis.

[0090] Among them, the adhesive tape laminating device with the above structure has at least the following beneficial effects:

[0091] First, it can realize the automated operation of adhesive tape lamination, which is efficient and has a high yield rate, and can also save the company's scrap costs.

[0092] Second, when the tape and battery are loaded, they are photographed with high precision through their own independent visual positioning mechanisms (the first visual positioning mechanism 5 and the second visual positioning mechanism 7). After visual compensation and positioning, the battery is picked up by the robot's manipulator and automatically and accurately affixed to the tape. The positioning accuracy and yield rate are effectively improved, and the problems of mis-function test and poor size detection caused by the tape and battery being pasted unevenly or missed are solved.

[0093] Third, the battery is corrected by the manipulator of the transfer mechanism 4, which is not restricted by the positioning of the mechanical mechanism and does not require repeated debugging and analysis by personnel. While achieving effective error prevention, it can release manpower for designated positions.
