From the current development point of view, the aluminum alloy battery shell solution has a relatively good lightweight prospect.

[0003] When processing the battery shell, it is usually fixed first, and then one end face is processed. After the processing is completed, the fixation is released, and the other end face is replaced and processed again. Such operation is time-consuming and labor-intensive, affecting the efficiency of production and processing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is to provide a flipping device for processing aluminum alloy battery shells to solve the problems in the prior art.

[0006] By adopting the above technical solution, the battery shell can be automatically turned over and replaced for processing.

[0007] A frame is installed at one end of the transmission shaft away from the connecting arm, and adjustable adjustment heads are installed at the upper and lower end surfaces of the frame. A positioning part is rotatably installed on one side of the frame.

[0008] By adopting the above technical solution, the positioning part limits the battery shell, and the adjusting head can be adjusted according to the thickness of the battery shell, so that when the top plate contacts the adjusting head, the battery shell can be supported at the same time.

[0009] A second cylinder is also installed on the workbench, and a top plate is installed at the output end of the second cylinder.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, the top plate can support the battery shell.

[0016] The second driving cylinder drives the top plate to move downward to the lowest position, and the first driving cylinder pulls the moving plate downward. When the moving plate moves downward, the connecting shaft moves in the slot of the moving plate and moves downward along the arc - shaped slot of the guiding plate. And the connecting shaft drives the connecting arm to rotate around the transmission shaft as the axis. After the connecting shaft moves to the lowest position, the transmission shaft rotates 180 degrees. At this time, the frame synchronously flips 180 degrees, and then the battery case realizes a 180 - degree flip. Then the second driving cylinder pushes the top plate to rise, and the top plate fits onto a set of adjusting heads at the bottom of the frame at this time. After that, the other end face of the battery case can be processed. It is convenient to realize automatic flipping during the processing of the battery case, saving the time of manual flipping and positioning adjustment, and improving the processing efficiency.

[0021] The following elaborates on the preferred embodiments of the present utility model in conjunction with the drawings, so that the advantages and features of the present utility model can be more easily understood by those skilled in the art, thereby making a clearer and more definite definition of the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0022] Refer to Figure 1-3, A flipping device for processing aluminum alloy battery cases, including a workbench 1 and two flipping mechanisms oppositely installed on the workbench 1. The flipping mechanism includes a cylinder one 2, a moving plate 3, a guide rail 4, a guide plate 5, a connecting shaft 6 and a connecting arm 7. The cylinder one 2 and the guide rail 4 are respectively installed on the workbench 1. The moving plate 3 is installed at the output end of the cylinder one 2 and can slide up and down along the guide rail 4. The guide plate 5 is installed at the upper end of the workbench 1. A transmission shaft 8 penetrates through the upper end of the workbench 1. The connecting arm 7 is fixed at one end of the transmission shaft 8. The connecting shaft 6 is installed at the end close to the connecting arm 7, penetrates through the notch of the moving plate 3 and extends out from the arc-shaped groove of the guide plate 5;

[0023] The cylinder two 13 can be driven to push the top plate 12 to move upward. The top plate 12 abuts against the adjusting head 11 at the bottom of the frame 9. Then, the battery case can be placed on the top plate 12, and the positioning part 10 on the frame 9 can be rotated to limit the battery case, and then the end face of the battery case can be processed. After the processing is completed, the cylinder two 13 is driven to drive the top plate 12 to move downward to the lowest position. Then, the cylinder one 2 is driven to pull the moving plate 3 to move downward. When the moving plate 3 moves downward, the connecting shaft 6 moves in the notch of the moving plate 3 and moves downward along the arc-shaped groove of the guide plate 5. And the connecting shaft 6 drives the connecting arm 7 to rotate 180 degrees with the transmission shaft 8 as the axis. After the connecting shaft 6 moves to the lowest position, the transmission shaft 8 rotates 180 degrees. At this time, the frame 9 rotates 180 degrees synchronously, and then the battery case is flipped 180 degrees. After that, the cylinder two 13 is driven to push the top plate 12 to rise. The top plate 12 fits onto a group of adjusting heads 11 at the bottom of the frame 9 at this time. Then, the other end face of the battery case can be processed.

[0024] A frame 9 is installed at one end of the transmission shaft 8 away from the connecting arm 7. Adjustable adjusting heads 11 are installed on both the upper and lower end faces of the frame 9. A positioning part 10 is rotatably installed on one side of the frame 9;

[0025] The rotation amplitude of the connecting arm 7 is certain. The setting of the guide plate 5 restricts the displacement of the connecting shaft 6. When the transmission shaft 8 rotates 180 degrees, the connecting arm 7 and the connecting shaft 6 rotate 180 degrees simultaneously with the transmission shaft 8 as the axis, thereby driving the frame 9 to rotate.

[0026] A cylinder two 13 is also installed on the workbench 1. A top plate 12 is installed at the output end of the cylinder two 13; the cross-section of the top plate 12 is set to be larger than the area between the two groups of frames 9; the top plate 12 is lifted and lowered by the drive of the cylinder two 13. After the top plate 12 rises, it can support the lower end of the battery case, cooperate with the positioning part 10 to clamp its side, and stabilize the battery case for subsequent processing; and the frame 9 is integrally set in a "冂" shape structure. A positioning part 10 is arranged on one side of the frame 9. The positioning part 10 can be rotated to apply pressure to the side of the battery case, and the battery case is restricted in the frame 9.

[0027] The above-mentioned embodiments only express several implementation methods of the utility model, and the description is relatively specific and detailed, but it cannot be understood as limiting the scope of the utility model patent. It should be pointed out that for ordinary technicians in this field, several modifications and improvements can be made without departing from the concept of the utility model, which all belong to the protection scope of the utility model.
