Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of battery packing machines, and particularly relates to a foam placing mechanism of a battery packing machine. Background Technique

[0002] At present, the battery packing method of the battery packing machine is usually vertical packing of batteries. However, in order to improve the packing efficiency of batteries, a method of lateral packing of batteries is also adopted. For the method of lateral packing of batteries, the specific operation is that the carton is not sealed at the bottom first, and the carton is placed laterally on the conveyor. Then, the battery on the conveyor is flipped so that the battery is flipped to the state of being vertical on the side. Then, the manipulator is used to move the battery into the carton. Then, the manipulator is used to put the foams into the carton from both sides respectively. Then, the bottom of the carton is sealed, and the carton is flipped to the state with the top facing up. Then, objects such as certificates of conformity are put into the carton. Finally, the top of the carton is sealed.

[0003] In the prior art, the method of placing foams is usually to use the manipulator to put one foam into the carton first, then use the conveyor to drive the carton to move a certain distance, and then use the manipulator to put another foam into the carton. This method of placing foams not only has poor efficiency, but also may have the problem of pushing the carton during the process of placing foams when using the unilateral foam placing method, thus affecting the accurate placement of the foams and also affecting the packing efficiency of the batteries. Therefore, it is urgent to study a foam placing mechanism of a battery packing machine to solve the above problems. Summary of the Utility Model

Before use, a plurality of foams are placed side by side on the foam conveyor, and a plurality of cartons are placed side by side on the carton conveyor; during use, the flipping assembly 2 flips the foam grasping assembly 5 to directly above the foam conveyor through the rotating assembly 3 and the pushing and pulling assemblies 4, and then the two pushing and pulling assemblies 4 drive the two foam grasping assemblies 5 to move vertically downward synchronously, so that the two foam grasping assemblies 5 respectively abut against two pieces of foam on the foam conveyor. Then the two foam grasping assemblies 5 respectively suck the two pieces of foam, and then the flipping assembly 2 flips the foam grasping assembly 5 by 90° through the rotating assembly 3 and the pushing and pulling assemblies 4. Then the rotating assembly 3 drives the two pushing and pulling assemblies 4 to rotate by 90°, so that the two pieces of foam rotate to between the two foam grasping assemblies 5. Then the flipping assembly 2 continues to flip the foam grasping assembly 5 by 90°, so that the two pieces of foam move to the opposite sides of the carton on the carton conveyor.

During use, after the foam grasping assembly 5 is flipped to the directly above the foam conveyor, the inside of the bearing box 501 is evacuated through the air extraction joint 502 to make the negative pressure suction nozzles 503 in a negative pressure state. Then, the two pushing and pulling assemblies 4 drive the two foam grasping assemblies 5 to move vertically downward synchronously, so that the negative pressure suction nozzles 503 suck the foam on the foam conveyor. Finally, after the two pieces of foam are synchronously placed into the cardboard box, the air extraction joint 502 suspends the evacuation of the inside of the bearing box 501, causing the negative pressure suction nozzles 503 to lose the negative pressure state, thereby realizing the separation of the negative pressure suction nozzles 503 from the foam, effectively ensuring the foam releasing efficiency.
