[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in 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 in 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.

It includes a delivery component 1, a straightening component 2 is arranged at the bottom of the delivery component 1, and the straightening component 2 includes a driving turntable 21, and the driving turntable 21 is driven to rotate by a motor arranged at the bottom of the conveying device 15. Since the protruding parts at both ends of the driving turntable 21 are connected with pull rods 27, the pull rods 27 can be pulled to deflect to both ends, and the two ends of the driving turntable 21 are movably connected with the pull rods 27, one end of the pull rod 27 is movably connected with a slide 22, and the two ends of the slide 22 are movably connected with connecting rods 23, and one end of the connecting rod 23 is movably connected with a second connecting rod 24, and the interior of the slide 22 is provided with a The slide bar 29, one end of the second connecting rod 24 is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 25, and the top of the transmission rod 25 is fixedly connected to the straightening arm 26. The slide 22 follows the deflection of the pull rod 27 and slides toward the middle along the slide bar 29, driving the connecting rods 23 set at both ends to rotate. Since the second connecting rod 24 is fixed in the vertical direction by the transmission rod 25, the second connecting rod 24 will gradually increase the angle between it and the connecting rod 23 as the connecting rod 23 rotates, so that the top straightening arm 26 can move the cylindrical battery that is not inserted into the groove conveyor belt 17 to straighten it.

[0023] See also Figure 1-4 The feeding assembly 1 includes a storage hopper 11, a discharge port 12 is provided at the bottom of the storage hopper 11, a conveying device 15 is provided below the storage hopper 11, a groove conveyor belt 17 is rotatably connected inside the conveying device 15, a dismantling machine 110 is provided at one end of the groove conveyor belt 17, a supporting frame 14 is fixedly connected around the storage hopper 11, a weight sensor 13 is fixedly connected to the side of the storage hopper 11, baffles 16 are fixedly connected at both ends of the conveying device 15, a driving motor 19 is provided at one end of the bottom of the conveying device 15, a transmission element 18 is fixedly connected to one end of the driving motor 19, a top of the transmission element 18 is fixedly connected to the side of the conveying device 15, and a surface of the groove conveyor belt 17 is provided with a When the cylindrical battery enters the groove, the weight sensor 13 with model LC1340 senses the weight of the cylindrical battery. When the weight reaches the appropriate standard, the cylindrical battery is dropped from the discharge port 12 to the surface of the groove conveyor belt 17 through the electromagnetic induction valve arranged at the bottom of the storage hopper 11. The two ends of the slide bar 29 are fixedly connected with fixing parts 28, and the fixing parts 28 are fixedly connected to the bottom of the conveyor 15.

The symmetrically arranged straightening arm 26 can evenly straighten the cylindrical batteries on the surface of the groove conveyor belt 17.

[0024] When in use, firstly, the weight of the batteries inside the storage hopper 11 is measured by the weight sensor 13, and then a specific number of cylindrical batteries are dropped onto the surface of the groove conveyor belt 17. Since the driving motor 19 drives the groove conveyor belt 17 to rotate through the transmission element 18, the grooves arranged on the surface of the groove conveyor belt 17 can align the positions of most batteries. For cylindrical batteries that are not aligned, the pull rods 27 movably connected at both ends of the driving turntable 21 rotate to pull the slide 22 to slide on the outside of the slide 29, and the connecting rods 23 movably connected at both ends of the slide 22 are pulled toward the middle, thereby increasing the angle between the connecting rod 23 and the second connecting rod 24, so that the second connecting rod 24 rotates at an angle to match the position change of the connecting rod 23. At this time, the second connecting rod 24 can drive the top aligning arm 26 to swing left and right on the surface of the groove conveyor belt 17, so that the cylindrical batteries with chaotic positions on the surface of the groove conveyor belt 17 are inserted into the internal grooves of the groove conveyor belt 17, so that the cylindrical batteries are neatly aligned in the grooves of the groove conveyor belt 17 and are transported to the inside of the dismantling machine 110 for dismantling.
