[0002] Soft-pack batteries are a type of packaging that is different from traditional square or cylindrical batteries. Soft-pack batteries have the advantages of high capacity, high rate, high cycle life, and easy maintenance. The packaging material is mostly aluminum-plastic film packaging, which is soft and easy to fold, and is conducive to the integrated collector and bus structure. It can achieve the advantages of fast charging, safer, higher energy density, and mass production. At present, after the production of soft-pack battery cells is completed, the cells need to be packaged on the assembly line.

[0022] The following is combined with Figure 1-5 To further explain this application in detail,

[0023] The present application embodiment discloses an automated packaging device for a soft pack battery assembly line. Figure 1 and Figure 2, an automated packaging device for a soft-pack battery assembly line comprises a conveying track 1 and a mounting platform 2; the mounting platform 2 is arranged above the conveying track 1, a transmission component 3 is arranged at the bottom end of the mounting platform 2, the transmission component 3 comprises a conveying plate 31 slidably connected to the bottom end of the mounting platform 2, a two-way cylinder 32 is fixedly installed at the bottom end of the conveying plate 31, and a clamping plate 33 is drivingly connected to the left and right sides of the two-way cylinder 32, a guide rail is fixedly installed in the middle of the bottom end of the mounting platform 2, and an electric lifting rod is fixedly installed at the four corners of the bottom end of the mounting platform 2, the conveying plate 31 is slidably connected to the inside of the guide rail, the top end of the clamping plate 33 is slidably connected to the bottom of the conveying plate 31, the top end of the clamping plate 33 and the bottom of the conveying plate 31 are mutually limited, so that the clamping plate 33 does not shake during the sliding process, a bottom stabilizing component 4 is arranged at the bottom of the transmission component 3, and a side stabilizing component 5 is arranged on the surface of the transmission component 3, a placing platform 61 is slidably connected to the top of the conveying track 1, and an inner groove 62 is opened inside the placing platform 61;

[0024] Reference Figure 3-Figure 4 The bottom stabilizing assembly 4 includes two bottom grooves 41 opened on the front and rear sides of the bottom end of the clamping plate 33. The bottom groove 41 is rotatably connected to a lifting rod 42. A pressure spring 43 is fixedly installed on the inner wall of the bottom groove 41. A two-way electric cylinder 44 is fixedly installed on the bottom end of the clamping plate 33. One end of the pressure spring 43 away from the inner wall of the bottom groove 41 is fixedly installed on the surface of the lifting rod 42. The two end surfaces of the two-way electric cylinder 44 are respectively adapted to contact with the two lifting rods 42, and the two-way electric cylinder 44 can be driven to extend its two end surfaces to push the lifting rod 42 to rotate. The lifting rod 42 is adapted to be slidably connected to the inside of the inner groove 62.

[0025] Reference Figure 5 The side stabilizing assembly 5 includes a side stabilizing rod 51 rotatably connected to the inside of the clamping plate 33, a sliding groove 52 is opened inside the clamping plate 33, and a fixing plate 53 is fixedly installed at one end of the two clamping plates 33 away from each other, and a return spring 54 is fixedly installed at one end of the fixing plate 53 close to the inside of the sliding groove 52, and a sliding rod 55 is fixedly installed at one end of the return spring 54 away from the fixing plate 53. The front and rear ends of the sliding rod 55 are rotatably connected to a rotating rod 56, and the sliding rod 55 is slidably connected to the inside of the sliding groove 52. When the sliding rod 55 is subjected to a reaction force, it will slide toward the inside of the sliding groove 52, and the end of the rotating rod 56 away from the sliding rod 55 is rotatably connected to a push plate 57, and the side stabilizing rod 51 is vertically arranged inside the clamping plate 33, and one end of the push plate 57 away from the rotating rod 56 is in adaptive contact with the side stabilizing rod 51. When the rotating rod 56 rotates, it will push the push plate 57, so that the push plate 57 pushes the side stabilizing rod 51 to rotate.

[0026] Working principle: The operator places the soft-pack battery cell to be packaged on the top of the placement table 61. At this time, the two-way cylinder 32 is operated to drive the two clamping plates 33 to approach each other, so that the two clamping plates 33 are clamped on both sides of the battery cell. At this time, the two clamping plates 33 preliminarily limit the battery cell. While the clamping plates 33 are clamped on the surface of the battery cell, the sliding rod 55 moves to the inside of the slide groove 52 under the reaction force of the battery cell. At this time, the sliding rod 55 compresses the reset spring 54. At the same time, the sliding rod 55 will push the rotating rod 56, so that the rotating rod 56 pushes the push plate 57, and as the sliding rod 55 moves, the push plate 57 will push the side stabilizing rod 51. At this time, the two side stabilizing rods 51 are pushed and rotated in the direction away from each other, so the two side stabilizing rods 51 will rotate to the outside of the clamping plates 33. At this time, the two side stabilizing rods 51 limit the sides of the battery cell.

[0027] The pressure spring 43 is in a compressed state in the initial state. At this time, the two-way electric cylinder 44 pushes the lifting rod 42 to compress the pressure spring 43. Then the operator drives the two-way electric cylinder 44 to shorten. At this time, the two end surfaces of the two-way electric cylinder 44 will no longer push the lifting rod 42. At this time, the lifting rod 42 will rotate to the outside of the bottom groove 41 under the action of the rebound force of the pressure spring 43. At this time, the lifting rod 42 is perpendicular to the clamping plate 33, and at this time, the lifting rod 42 rotates to the inside of the inner groove 62. At the same time, the lifting rod 42 is lifted at the bottom of the battery cell. Then the operator can drive the electric lifting rod to extend, so that the clamping plate 33 drives the battery cell to move until the battery cell is moved to the inside of the packaging shell, thereby completing the installation.

[0028] The above shows and describes the basic principle, main features and advantages of the utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that the utility model is not limited by the above embodiments, and the above embodiments and descriptions are only for explaining the principle of the utility model. Without departing from the spirit and scope of the utility model, the utility model may have various changes and improvements, and these changes and improvements fall within the scope of the utility model to be protected.
