[0030] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present utility model, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0031] Please refer to the attached Figures 1 to 4As shown in the figure, an automatic loading device for a cylindrical battery production line in an embodiment of the present utility model includes an upper loading belt 1 and a lower loading belt 2. Alignment components 4 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the gap between the upper loading belt 1 and the lower loading belt 2. A moving component 7 is arranged below the upper loading belt 1 and the lower loading belt 2. A lifting component 3 is fixedly connected above the moving component 7. When in use, the cylindrical battery is conveyed from the upper loading belt 1 to the lower loading belt 2. When the cylindrical battery passes by, the lifting component 3 lifts the cylindrical battery, and then the two alignment components 4 align the ends of the cylindrical battery. After alignment, driven by the moving component 7, the lifting component 3 transfers the cylindrical battery to the position of the lower loading belt 2 for loading.

[0032] The alignment component 4 includes an alignment cylinder 41. A push plate 42 is fixedly connected to the extending end of the alignment cylinder 41. The two push plates 42 are of the same height and are arranged oppositely. When the alignment component 4 is in use, the two alignment cylinders 41 extend, driving the two push plates 42 to move and contact the ends of the cylindrical battery, so as to align the lifted cylindrical battery.

[0033] The lifting component 3 includes a lifting cylinder 31. A lifting seat 32 is fixedly connected to the extending end of the lifting cylinder 31. A plurality of circular grooves 33 are evenly spaced on the upper end surface of the lifting seat 32. When the lifting component 3 is in use, the lifting cylinder 31 drives the lifting seat 32 to move up and down. The width of the lifting seat 32 is smaller than the distance between the two conveyor belts 22. After the lifting seat 32 rises, a plurality of cylindrical batteries are stably arranged through the circular grooves 33.

[0034] On both sides above the upper loading belt 1, a first blocking component 5 and a second blocking component 6 are respectively fixedly connected. Both the first blocking component 5 and the second blocking component 6 include a mounting frame 51. A blocking cylinder 53 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the mounting frame 51. A baffle 52 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the blocking cylinder 53. A photoelectric pair emitter 54 is arranged in the middle at the rear side of the mounting frame 51 of the first blocking component 5. The emitting end and the receiving end of the photoelectric pair emitter 54 are respectively fixedly connected to the mounting frame 51 and the upper loading belt 1. When the upper loading belt 1 is in use, the baffle 52 of the second blocking component 6 descends to block the passing cylindrical battery, making the cylindrical battery closely arranged. The baffle 52 of the first blocking component 5 rises, and the passing cylindrical battery is counted through the arranged photoelectric pair emitter 54. When the number of passing cylindrical batteries reaches the set number, the baffle 52 of the first blocking component 5 descends, and the baffle 52 of the second blocking component 6 rises, so that the arranged cylindrical battery moves above the lifting component 3.

[0035] The moving component 7 includes an installation groove 71. At the middle part of the inner side of the installation groove 71, a lead screw 74 is rotatably connected. A moving seat 72 is sleeved on the outer end of the lead screw 74. The lifting cylinder 31 is fixedly connected to the moving seat 72. One end of the installation groove 71 is fixedly connected with a motor 75. The output end of the motor 75 is fixedly connected to the lead screw 74. On both sides of the inner bottom of the installation groove 71, slide rails 73 are fixedly connected. The lower end of the moving seat 72 is slidably connected to the slide rails 73. When the moving component 7 is in use, the motor 75 drives the lead screw 74 to rotate, thereby driving the moving seat 72 to move.

[0036] Both the upper feeding belt 1 and the lower feeding belt 2 include a mounting seat 21. On both sides inside the mounting seat 21, conveyor belts 22 are arranged. On the opposite sides of the bottoms of the two mounting seats 21, through grooves 23 are opened. The conveying directions of the conveyor belts 22 on both sides are the same. When in use, the two ends of the cylindrical battery are placed between the two conveyor belts 22. The provided through grooves 23 facilitate leaving space for the lifting component 3 to move.

[0037] Working principle: When in use, the upper feeding belt 1 conveys the cylindrical battery. The baffle 52 of the second blocking component 6 descends to block the passing cylindrical battery, making the cylindrical batteries closely arranged. The baffle 52 of the first blocking component 5 rises. The provided photoelectric pair emitter 54 counts the passing cylindrical batteries. When the number of passing cylindrical batteries reaches the set number, the baffle 52 of the first blocking component 5 descends, and the baffle 52 of the second blocking component 6 rises, making the arranged cylindrical batteries move above the lifting component 3. Then the lifting seat 32 rises to lift multiple cylindrical batteries, and they are driven by the moving component 7 to between the two aligning components 4. The two aligning cylinders 41 extend to drive the two push plates 42 to move and contact the ends of the cylindrical batteries, thereby aligning the lifted cylindrical batteries. After alignment, the cylindrical batteries are driven by the moving component 7 to move to the lower feeding belt 2. The lifting seat 32 descends to transfer the cylindrical batteries to the conveyor belt 22 of the lower feeding belt 2 for feeding.

[0038] The above has described a specific embodiment of the present invention in detail, but the content described is only the preferred embodiment of the present invention and cannot be considered as used to limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. All equivalent changes and improvements made according to the scope of the application of the present invention should still fall within the scope covered by the patent of the present invention.
