[0018] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, rather than all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.

[0019] Reference Figure 1-4 An automatic assembly device for battery packs includes a conveying assembly and a material unloading assembly. The conveying assembly includes a conveying frame 5 arranged on the ground, a conveying roller 12 rotatably connected to the inner side of the conveying frame 5, and a conveying belt 7 connected between the conveying rollers 12. A plurality of placement boxes 10 for placing battery assembly frames are equidistantly arranged on the surface of the conveying belt 7.

[0020] It is worth noting that: the staff is required to control the rotation of the conveying motor 4, and the staff is required to place the battery assembly frame in the placement box 10. When the conveyor belt 7 transports the battery assembly frame to the discharge port, the conveying motor 4 is turned off to stop the movement of the battery assembly frame, so that the battery pack can fall into the battery assembly frame.

[0021] Furthermore, L-shaped support plates 9 are fixedly connected to the two side surfaces of the housing 1, and a pressing plate 3 for pressing the battery assembly cover is fixedly connected to the surface of the housing 1;

[0022] It should be noted that the pressing plate 3 is composed of an arc-shaped plate and a straight plate. With the conveying of the conveyor belt 7 , the pressing plate 3 gradually realizes the function of pressing down the battery assembly cover.

[0023] Furthermore, a conveying motor 4 is installed on one side of the conveying frame 5 , one end of the output shaft of the conveying motor 4 is fixedly connected to the conveying roller 12 , and a recovery box 6 is placed below the conveyor belt 7 .

[0024] It should be noted that: the conveying motor 4 drives the conveying roller 12 to rotate, and then drives the conveyor belt 7 to move, thereby realizing the conveying function of the battery assembly frame. The recycling box 6 can realize the recycling function of the assembled battery pack. The inner wall of the recycling box 6 is provided with a buffer pad, which can play a buffering role on the falling of the battery pack.

[0025] The unloading assembly includes a shell 1 arranged above the conveying assembly and a rotating roller 11 rotatably connected to the inner side of the shell 1. The surface of the rotating roller 11 is provided with a plurality of quantitative conveying grooves 1101 distributed in a circumference. The notch edges of the quantitative conveying grooves 1101 are arranged in an arc surface. A unloading motor 8 is installed on the back of the shell 1. The output shaft of the unloading motor 8 passes through the side wall of the shell 1 and is fixedly connected to the center of the rotating roller 11.

[0026] It should be noted that only one group of batteries can be placed inside the conveying trough, and the edge of the notch of the quantitative conveying trough 1101 is set as an arc surface to facilitate the lifting of the remaining batteries in the feeding tube 2 during the rotation of the rotating roller 11, thereby facilitating the rotation of the rotating roller 11;

[0027] Furthermore, a feed port is provided at the top of the housing 1, a discharge port is provided at the bottom of the housing 1, and an observation window 13 is provided at the front of the housing 1 at the feed pipe 2 and the discharge port;

[0028] It should be noted that the setting of the observation window 13 is convenient for the staff to observe whether the quantitative conveying trough 1101 rotates to the discharge pipe 2, and at the same time, it is convenient to observe whether the battery assembly frame moves to the discharge port;

[0029] It is worth noting that the end of the quantitative conveying groove 1101 facing the observation window 13 is in an open state.

[0030] Furthermore, a feeding pipe 2 for placing batteries is fixedly connected to the top of the housing 1 at the feeding port, and the batteries inside the feeding pipe 2 are stacked one by one from bottom to top;

[0031] It should be noted that: it is convenient for the battery packs to enter the quantitative conveying trough 1101 one by one to realize the automatic unloading function.

[0032] The conveying motor 4 is of prior art, and its model is JB5274-91. It can realize the function of driving the conveying roller 12 to rotate, and will not be described in detail here.

[0033] The unloading motor 8 is of prior art, and its model is Y132S2-2. It can realize the function of driving the rotating roller 11 to rotate, and will not be described in detail here.

[0034] When the utility model is used, multiple batteries are grouped together and stacked one by one from bottom to top, and the ends with the positive and negative electrodes of the batteries are placed downwards;

[0035] Then the staff places the battery assembly frame in the placement box 10 and turns on the conveying motor 4. The conveying motor 4 drives the conveying roller 12 to rotate, and then drives the conveyor belt 7 to move. The conveyor belt 7 drives the placement box 10 and the battery assembly frame to move. When the battery assembly frame moves to the discharge port, the unloading motor 8 is turned on. The unloading motor 8 drives the rotating roller 11 to rotate. When the quantitative conveying trough 1101 rotates to the unloading pipe 2, the unloading motor 8 is turned off, and the battery pack automatically falls into the quantitative conveying trough 1101. Then the unloading motor 8 is continued to be turned on. When the quantitative conveying trough 1101 rotates to the discharge port, the battery pack automatically falls into the battery assembly frame. The conveying motor 4 is turned on so that the conveyor belt 7 drives the battery assembly frame and the battery pack to continue to move. When the battery assembly frame is close to the pressing plate 3, the staff places the battery assembly cover on the battery assembly frame. With the conveying of the conveyor belt 7, the pressing plate 3 gradually realizes the downward pressing function of the battery assembly cover, thereby realizing the automatic assembly function of the battery pack.

[0036] As the conveyor belt 7 continues to rotate, the assembled battery pack in the placement box 10 will fall into the recovery box 6 under the action of its own gravity to complete recycling. The recovery box 6 is provided with a buffer pad to achieve a buffering function for the battery pack to fall.

[0037] The above description is only a preferred specific implementation manner of the present invention, but the protection scope of the present invention is not limited thereto. Any technician familiar with the technical field can make equivalent replacements or changes within the technical scope disclosed by the present invention according to the technical scheme and the utility model concept of the present invention, which should be covered by the protection scope of the present invention.
