[0004] Such a battery tray can be well compatible with batteries with certain size errors, and is convenient for the gripper equipment to load and unload the battery tray.

[0032] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present application, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0033] In this application, unless otherwise clearly specified and limited, the terms "connection", "fixation", etc. should be understood in a broad sense. For example, "fixation" can be a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; it can be a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; it can be a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium, it can be the internal connection of two elements or the interaction relationship between two elements, unless otherwise clearly defined. For ordinary technicians in this field, the specific meanings of the above terms in this application can be understood according to specific circumstances.

[0034] In addition, in this application, descriptions such as "first", "second", etc. are only used for descriptive purposes and cannot be understood as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly indicating the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, the features defined as "first" and "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of the features. In addition, the technical solutions between the various embodiments can be combined with each other, but they must be based on the ability of ordinary technicians in this field to implement them. When the combination of technical solutions is contradictory or cannot be implemented, it should be deemed that such combination of technical solutions does not exist and is not within the scope of protection required by this application.

[0035] The present application proposes a battery jig 100 for clamping batteries on a battery tray circulating on a conveyor chain, wherein the conveyor chain can be composed of a plurality of rollers, with a certain gap reserved between the rollers for the passage of a clamping module 20 of the battery jig 100; the conveyor chain can also be composed of two conveyor belts, and the battery jig 100 is arranged between the two conveyor belts, with the two sides of the battery tray respectively abutting against the two conveyor belts.

[0036] Please refer to Figures 1 to 6 In the embodiment of the present application, the battery fixture 100 includes a lifting device 10 and a clamping module 20. When the battery fixture 100 clamps the battery of the battery tray, the battery fixture 100 is located below the battery tray.

[0037] It can be understood that in the process of automated battery production, the conveyor chain continuously uses the battery tray to transfer the battery to the processing position of the gluing equipment. After the gluing equipment completes the gluing operation, the conveyor chain again uses the battery tray to transfer the battery away from the processing position of the gluing equipment.

[0038] The lifting device 10 is connected to the clamping module 20 in a transmission manner to drive the clamping module 20 to move upward in the vertical direction so that the clamping module 20 can clamp the battery on the battery tray, or drive the clamping module 20 to move downward in the vertical direction so that the clamping module 20 avoids the battery tray. In this way, when the battery to be coated with glue flows to the processing position, the lifting device 10 drives the clamping module 20 to move upward so that the clamping block of the clamping module 20 can pass through the gap of the battery tray and clamp the battery on the fixed battery tray. After the glue coating equipment completes the glue coating operation, the clamping module 20 releases the battery, and the lifting device 10 drives the clamping module 20 to move downward so that the clamping block of the clamping module 20 can withdraw from the gap of the battery tray and avoid the battery tray, so that the next battery tray can carry the battery to the processing position, thereby realizing the automatic production of batteries.

[0039] The clamping module 20 includes a mounting plate 21, a first clamping assembly 22, a second clamping assembly 23 and a driving device 24. The mounting plate 21 is connected to the lifting device 10. The first clamping assembly 22 includes two sliding plates 221. The two sliding plates 221 are movably mounted on both sides of the mounting plate 21 in the first direction. One sliding plate 221 is provided with a plurality of first elastic clamping blocks 222 at intervals along the second direction of the mounting plate 21. The other sliding plate 221 is provided with a plurality of first fixed clamping blocks 223 corresponding to the plurality of first elastic clamping blocks 222 at intervals along the second direction. The driving device 24 is respectively connected to the two sliding plates 221 in transmission to drive the two sliding plates 221 to move along the first direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction are arranged perpendicular to each other on a horizontal plane.

[0040] The driving device 24 drives the two sliding plates 221 to move toward each other along the first direction, so that the distance between the two sliding plates 221 in the first direction gradually decreases, and the movement of the two movable plates 231 drives the first elastic clamp 222 and the first fixed clamp 223 to clamp and fix the two sides of the length direction of the battery; the driving device 24 drives the two sliding plates 221 to move away from each other along the first direction, so that the distance between the two sliding plates 221 in the first direction gradually increases, and the movement of the two movable plates 231 drives the first elastic clamp 222 and the first fixed clamp 223 to release the battery.

[0041] It can be understood that the first clamping assembly 22 is compatible with the dimensional error of the battery in the length direction by the first elastic clamp block 222, and the first fixed clamp block 223 is fixed on the sliding plate 221. Therefore, the relative distance between the side of the battery fixed by the first fixed clamp block 223 and the battery tray can be determined by determining the distance that the driving device 24 drives the sliding plate 221 to move. That is, the first clamping assembly 22 can clamp and fix this side of the battery to a preset position. For the gluing equipment, this side can be set as a reference side of the battery.

[0042] The second clamping assembly 23 includes two movable plates 231, which are movably mounted on the mounting plate 21 and located between the two sliding plates 221. One movable plate 231 is provided with a plurality of second elastic clamping blocks 232 at intervals along the second direction, and the other movable plate 231 is provided with a plurality of second fixed clamping blocks 233 corresponding to the plurality of second elastic clamping blocks 232 at intervals along the second direction. The driving device 24 is also respectively connected to the two movable plates 231 to drive the two movable plates 231 to move along the second direction.

[0043] In one example, the two movable plates 231 are spaced apart in the vertical direction and are located above the mounting plate 21. The movable plate 231 away from the mounting plate 21 is provided with an avoidance portion to avoid the second elastic clamp block 232 or the second fixed clamp block 233 on the other movable plate 231. In another example, the two movable plates 231 are spaced apart in the first direction and extend in the second direction.

[0044] The driving device 24 drives the movable plate 231 to move along the second direction, so as to drive the second elastic clamp block 232 and / or the second fixed clamp block 233 to clamp the two sides of the length direction of the fixed battery or release the battery through the movement of the movable plate 231. Specifically, in one example, the driving device 24 drives the two movable plates 231 to move along the second direction, driving the second elastic clamp block 232 and the second fixed clamp block 233 on the two movable plates 231 to move toward each other in the second direction to clamp the two sides of the length direction of the fixed battery; the driving device 24 drives the two movable plates 231 to move along the second direction, driving the second elastic clamp block 232 and the second fixed clamp block 233 on the two movable plates 231 to move away from each other in the second direction to release the battery. In another example, the driving device 24 first drives one movable plate 231 to move along the second direction, driving the second fixed clamp block 233 on the movable plate 231 to abut against the battery first, and then the driving device 24 drives another movable plate 231 to move along the second direction, driving the second elastic clamp block 232 on the movable plate 231 to clamp the battery. The battery fixture 100 can be used in a variety of ways, which will not be described one by one here.

[0045] Similarly, the second clamping assembly 23 is compatible with the dimensional error of the battery in the width direction by the second elastic clamp block 232, and the second fixed clamp block 233 is fixed on the movable plate 231. Therefore, the relative distance between the side of the battery fixed by the second fixed clamp block 233 and the battery tray can be determined by determining the distance that the driving device 24 drives the movable plate 231 to move. That is, the second clamping assembly 23 can clamp and fix this side of the battery to a preset position. For the gluing equipment, this side can be set as another reference side of the battery.

[0046] The battery fixture 100 provided in the present application, its clamping module 20 includes a first clamping component 22 and a second clamping component 23. The first clamping component 22 clamps and fixes the battery on both sides in the length direction through the first elastic clamp block 222 and the first fixed clamp block 223, and then the dimensional error of the battery in the length direction can be accommodated by the first elastic clamp block 222, and one side of the battery in the length direction is abutted and fixed to a preset position by the first fixed clamp block 223. Similarly, the second clamping component 23 clamps and fixes the battery on both sides in the width direction through the second elastic clamp block 232 and the second fixed clamp block 233, and then the dimensional error of the battery in the width direction can be accommodated by the second elastic clamp block 232, and one side of the battery in the width direction is abutted and fixed to a preset position by the second fixed clamp block 233. In this way, the technical solution of the present application clamps the battery in the length direction and the width direction through the first clamping component 22 and the second clamping component 23, and fixes one side edge in the length direction and one side edge in the width direction of the battery to a preset position, thereby accurately determining the relative position relationship between the battery and the battery tray, so that the gluing equipment can accurately rely on the two side edges of the battery as a reference to perform gluing on the battery, thereby improving the accuracy of battery gluing.

[0047] In some examples, such as Figure 1 , Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting plate 21 is provided with two first guide rails 211 along the first direction, and the two sliding plates 221 are respectively slidably mounted on the corresponding first guide rails 211 . The driving device 24 is respectively transmission-connected with the two sliding plates 221 to drive the two sliding plates 221 to move along the corresponding first guide rails 211 .

[0048] With such arrangement, the two sliding plates 221 have a higher stability when sliding on the corresponding first guide rails 211, so as to improve the stability of the first elastic clamping block 222 and the first fixed clamping block 223 on the two sliding plates 221. In addition, the movement accuracy of the first fixed clamping block 223 can be improved, and the moving distance of the first fixed clamping block 223 can be accurately controlled.

[0049] In some examples, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, a sliding plate 221 is provided with a plurality of first sliding rails 2211 spaced apart along the second direction, and the plurality of first sliding rails 2211 are all extended along the first direction, and a plurality of first elastic clamps 222 each include a first sliding rod 2221, a first fixing member 2223 and a first elastic member 2224, the first sliding rod 2221 is slidably installed on the first sliding rail 2211, the first fixing member 2223 is fixedly installed on the sliding plate 221, and the first elastic member 2224 is elastically installed between the first sliding rod 2221 and the first fixing member 2223.

[0050] With such a configuration, when the first clamping assembly 22 clamps the battery, its first sliding rod 2221 can elastically move along the first slide rail 2211, thereby improving the stability of the first sliding rod 2221 during elastic movement. In addition, the first clamping assembly 22 can be compatible with batteries of different sizes through the elastic movement of the first sliding rod 2221 along the first slide rail 2211.

[0051] In some examples, such as Figure 2 As shown, the first sliding rod 2221 is slidably installed on the first sliding rail 2211 through the first sliding seat 2222, and the first sliding seat 2222 is provided with a first elastic mounting portion at one end away from the first sliding rod 2221, and the first fixing member 2223 is fixedly installed between the first elastic mounting portion and the first sliding rod 2221 to limit the movement stroke of the first sliding seat 2222, and the first elastic member 2224 is elastically installed between the first elastic mounting portion and the first fixing member 2223.

[0052] With such a configuration, the first fixing member 2223 can be used to limit the movement of the first sliding seat 2222, and the travel range of the first sliding rod 2221 can be controlled to avoid insufficient or excessive elastic force provided by the first elastic clamp 222. It should be emphasized that the movement range of the first sliding seat 2222 is greater than the range of battery size error.

[0053] In some examples, the first sliding rod 2221 and the first sliding seat 2222 are integrated.

[0054] In some examples, such as Figures 1 to 6 As shown, the driving device 24 includes two driving units, which are respectively fixedly installed on the mounting plate 21, and the two movable plates 231 are also arranged at intervals along the vertical direction; a movable plate 231 close to the mounting plate 21 is provided with a plurality of second elastic clamping blocks 232 at intervals along the second direction, and is fixedly connected to the driving end of one driving unit, and the movable plate 231 is also provided with a first avoidance portion 2313 for avoiding the driving end of the other driving unit; the other movable plate 231 away from the mounting plate 21 is provided with a plurality of second fixed clamping blocks 233 at intervals along the second direction, and is fixedly connected to the driving end of the other driving unit, and the movable plate 231 is also provided with a second avoidance portion 2314 for avoiding the second elastic clamping blocks 232.

[0055] This arrangement is intended to optimize the spatial layout of the second clamping assembly 23, reduce the area occupied by the second clamping assembly 23 on the horizontal plane, and facilitate the battery fixture 100 to be arranged below the conveyor chain. In addition, the mutual interference between the first clamping assembly 22 and the second clamping assembly 23 is reduced.

[0056] In some examples, the movable plate 231 away from the mounting plate 21 is composed of multiple sub-plates. In another example, the movable plate 231 away from the mounting plate 21 is only one plate, which is hollowed out at multiple locations to form a second avoidance portion 2314 for avoiding the second elastic clamp block 232.

[0057] In some examples, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the mounting plate 21 is provided with a second guide rail 212 along the second direction, a movable plate 231 close to the mounting plate 21 is slidably installed on the second guide rail 212, and a second slide rail 2311 is provided along the second direction on the side of the movable plate 231 away from the mounting plate 21, and another movable plate 231 away from the mounting plate 21 is slidably installed on the second slide rail 2311.

[0058] Such an arrangement can improve the stability of the two movable plates 231 moving along the first direction, improve the precision of the movement of the second fixed clamping block 233, and accurately control the moving distance of the second fixed clamping block 233.

[0059] In some examples, such as Figure 2 and Figure 6 As shown, the second slide rail 2311 includes two sub-slide rails, and the multiple second elastic clamps 232 each include a second sliding seat 2321, a second fixing member 2322, a second elastic member 2323 and two second sliding rods 2324. The second sliding seat 2321 is slidably installed on the two sub-slide rails, the second fixing member 2322 is fixedly installed on the movable plate 231, the second elastic member 2323 is elastically installed between the second sliding seat 2321 and the second fixing member 2322, and the two second sliding rods 2324 are spaced apart from the second sliding seat 2321.

[0060] With such arrangement, when the second clamping assembly 23 clamps the battery, the second sliding rod 2324 can elastically move along the two sub-slide rails of the second slide rail 2311, thereby improving the stability of the second sliding rod 2324 during elastic movement. In addition, the second clamping assembly 23 can be compatible with batteries of different sizes through the elastic movement of the second sliding rod 2324 along the second slide rail 2311.

[0061] In combination with the above content, the movable plate 231 and the second sliding seat 2321 away from the mounting plate 21 are both movably mounted on the two sub-slide rails of the second slide rail 2311, which further optimizes the spatial layout of the second clamping assembly 23 and improves the integration of the fixture.

[0062] In some examples, such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, a driving plate 2212 is provided on the inner side of the two sliding plates 221, and a driving groove 2213 with a preset track is recessed in the driving plate 2212. Both sides of a movable plate 231 close to the mounting plate 21 are provided with follower wheels 2312 that cooperate with the corresponding driving grooves 2213. The driving end of the driving unit drives the movable plate 231 to move in the second direction, so as to drive the sliding plate 221 to move in the first direction through the follower wheel 2312 on the movable plate 231.

[0063] With such a configuration, the movable plate 231 can drive the two movable plates 231 to move along the first direction, thereby saving the power source of the battery fixture 100 and reducing the manufacturing cost of the battery fixture 100. In addition, the movable plate 231 drives the two sliding plates 221 to move, so that the first clamping assembly 22 and the second clamping assembly 23 are linked in stroke, thereby improving the working efficiency of the battery fixture 100.

[0064] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5 As shown, the lifting device 10 includes a support plate 11, a driving structure 12 and a plurality of guide columns 13. The support plate 11 is fixedly arranged below the mounting plate 21. The driving structure 12 is fixedly installed on the support plate 11. The driving end of the driving structure 12 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 21. One end of each guide column 13 is fixedly connected to the mounting plate 21. The other end of each guide column 13 passes through the support plate 11 and is movably connected to the support plate 11.

[0065] Such arrangement is intended to improve the stability of the lifting device 10 driving the clamping module 20 to move in the vertical direction.

[0066] In some examples, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the battery fixture 100 also includes a locking member 30, which is fixedly disposed on the mounting plate 21. Under the driving action of the lifting device 10, the locking member 30 moves upward in the vertical direction to lock with the lock hole on the battery tray, or moves downward in the vertical direction to separate from the battery tray.

[0067] In this way, the locking member 30 can stably restrict the battery tray on the conveyor chain, prevent the battery tray from relative movement, and ensure the stability of the battery tray, so that the clamping module 20 can clamp or release the battery. In addition, the accuracy of the glue coating equipment on the battery can also be improved.

[0068] In some examples, the battery fixture 100 also includes multiple in-place detectors, which are correspondingly installed at any one of the first elastic clamp 222, the first fixed clamp 223, the second elastic clamp 232 and the second fixed clamp 233.
