Although this method can complete the transfer of batteries from the material box to the battery conveying mechanism, workers need to remove the empty material box after taking out all the batteries in the material box, and then place the material box containing batteries on the work station, which is very inconvenient.

[0004] In view of this, a battery loading device is urgently needed. Summary of the invention

[0005] In view of the problems existing in the prior art, the utility model solves the problems with the following technical structure.

[0006] In order to achieve the above purpose, the utility model adopts the following technical solutions:

[0009] The conveyor belt is used to transport the bottom material box between the two side frame assemblies to the battery transfer mechanism, and the battery transfer mechanism is used to transfer the batteries in the material box on the conveyor belt to the battery conveying mechanism.

[0010] It is further characterized in that

[0011] A mounting plate is horizontally arranged on the retaining frame, a plurality of tracks are arranged on the mounting plate, and the clamping plate is clamped on the plurality of tracks.

[0020] The above structure of the utility model can achieve the following beneficial effects:

[0021] During processing, multiple frames with batteries are stacked in sequence from bottom to top between two baffles. When the frame at the bottom is clamped by the pallets on both sides and the two first driving members drive the two pallets to move away from each other, the restriction on the bottom frame is released, so that the multiple frames at the material box stacking mechanism all fall down to the height of one frame. At this time, the bottom frame falls on the conveyor belt, and then the two first driving members drive the two pallets to move toward each other, so that the second frame from the bottom to the top is clamped, and then the conveyor belt moves to transport the frame that falls on the conveyor belt out of the frame stacking mechanism, and then the battery transfer mechanism transfers the batteries in the transported frames to the battery conveying mechanism to complete the battery loading. Since the workers do not need to remove the empty material box after taking out the batteries in the material box, and then place the material box with batteries on the work station, the speed of removing the batteries from the frame is increased, thereby improving the production efficiency.

At this time, the bottom frame falls on the conveyor belt 1, and then the two first driving members drive the two card plates 3 to move towards each other, so that the second frame from the bottom to the top is clamped, and then the conveyor belt 1 moves to transport the frame that falls on the conveyor belt 1 out of the frame stacking mechanism, and then the battery transfer mechanism transfers the batteries in the transported frames to the battery conveying mechanism to complete the battery loading. Since the workers do not need to remove the empty material box after taking out the batteries in the material box, and then place the material box with batteries on the work station, the speed of taking out the batteries from the frame is increased, and the production efficiency is improved.

[0031] refer to Figure 1-Figure 2 As shown, a mounting plate 21 is horizontally arranged on the baffle frame 2, and a plurality of tracks are arranged on the mounting plate 21, and a card plate 3 is clamped on the plurality of tracks (the extension direction of the tracks is perpendicular to the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 1). In this way, the card plate 3 is supported by the mounting plate 21 to ensure that the card plate 3 slides in the horizontal direction, and in order to stack a larger number of frames, the baffle frame 2 is provided with a shift rod 22 at both ends of the mounting plate 21, thereby extending the space for stacking frames, so that more frames can be stacked, and a material box detection sensor 23 (an infrared sensor can be used, and the detection direction of the infrared sensor is in the horizontal direction) is arranged on the mounting plate 21, a receiving end is arranged on one side of the baffle frame 2, and a transmitting end is arranged on the other side of the baffle frame 2. When the receiving end receives the signal from the transmitting end, it indicates that there is no obstruction between the receiving end and the transmitting end.

In this way, there is a battery conveying space between the two limit plates 81. When the battery clamping assembly 7 places the battery between the two limit plates 81, the battery conveying track 8 conveys the battery to the subsequent processing technology. In order to detect the batteries on the battery conveying track 8, two groups of battery detection sensors 9 are arranged on the limit plates 81 along the extension direction of the battery conveying track 8. The two groups of battery detection sensors 9 are arranged at intervals. The specific interval space can be the distance between the first and last batteries in the battery transport mechanism transporting the batteries at one time (the two groups of battery detection sensors 9 respectively detect the first and last batteries), so as to detect whether the battery transport mechanism has transported the batteries in place.

[0035] A further optimization is that, in order to better support the machine, a plurality of supporting legs are provided at the bottom of the machine.

[0036] The working principle of the utility model is as follows: during processing, a plurality of material boxes containing batteries are stacked in sequence from bottom to top between two retaining frames 2, the bottom frame falls on the conveyor belt 1, and then the two first driving members drive the two clamping plates 3 to move toward each other, so that the second frame from the bottom to the top is clamped, and then the conveyor belt 1 moves to transport the frame falling on the conveyor belt 1 out of the frame stacking mechanism, and then the battery transfer mechanism transfers the batteries in the transported frame to the battery conveying mechanism to complete the battery loading. Since the workers do not need to remove the empty material box after taking out the batteries in the material box, and then place the material box with batteries on the work station, the speed of taking out the batteries from the frame is increased, and the production efficiency is improved.
