[0033] The implementation principle of a new soft-pack battery fixture in the embodiment of the present application is:

[0034] Install the lifting bracket 1 on a corresponding driving mechanical device, such as a common, existing and mature device such as a manipulator;

[0035] The mechanical device is driven to move the clamp to the top of the restraint plate, ready for battery grabbing;

[0036] The lifting cylinder 3 is pushed out, so that the fixture descends along the Z axis, and the straightening plate 8 is introduced into the battery air bag to shape the battery air bag;

[0037] After the shaping is completed, the Z axis of the fixture continues to descend, and the clamp 7 clamps the battery to ensure the stability of the battery;

[0038] After clamping the battery, the lifting cylinder 3 retracts, the Z axis of the clamp rises, and the battery is lifted from the restraint plate;
