Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of storage battery part processing, and particularly relates to a battery terminal processing device. Background Art

[0002] A storage battery is a chemical "power source" widely used in the world. It has the advantages of stable voltage, safety and reliability, low price, wide application range, rich raw materials, and high recycling and regeneration utilization rate. It is the battery with the largest output and the widest application among various batteries in the world. The main parts of a storage battery are composed of plates, separators, electrolytes, electrode posts, and battery terminals. Among them, the battery terminal refers to the connection device at both ends of the storage battery, usually made of metal materials, and is used for the interface part of conducting electricity and fixing the connecting wires of electrical equipment. For the existing storage battery terminals, the bonding force between the copper ring and the lead base is small, and it is easy to separate or break off due to excessive torque during the connection process of the storage battery.

[0003] Therefore, Chinese Patent Publication No. CN205248360U discloses a manufacturing device for storage battery connection terminals, including a cleaning device filled with zinc chloride solution, a tin dipping device filled with lead-tin solution, and a pouring device for casting lead base outside the copper core column. By applying the manufacturing device for storage battery connection terminals provided by the utility model, first, one end of the copper core column used for connecting with the lead base is dipped into the zinc chloride solution in the cleaning device for cleaning, wiped clean after cleaning, and further dipped into the lead-tin solution in the tin dipping device. The zinc chloride solution can well remove the processing oil and oxide layer on the surface of the copper core column, making the surface of the copper core column uniform and enabling it to evenly dip the lead-tin solution. Since the lead-tin layer on the surface of the copper core column has a better bonding force with the lead base, the storage battery connection terminal is more durable, and the discharge performance of the product is more guaranteed. The utility model also discloses a storage battery connection terminal, which is processed by the above manufacturing device for storage battery connection terminals.

[0004] However, for the existing battery terminal manufacturing and processing equipment, the automatic transfer of battery terminal products cannot be achieved during the processing, and a large amount of manpower needs to be invested to assist in enabling the battery terminals to enter under each processing equipment, resulting in low processing efficiency; secondly, the existing processing equipment cannot finely polish the inner wall and outer wall contact surfaces of the battery terminals, increasing the contact resistance between the battery terminals and the storage battery electrode posts, and reducing the charging and discharging efficiency of the storage battery; at the same time, the contact side of the battery terminal surface cannot be polished flat, making the battery terminal unstable after installation, prone to displacement and loosening, and making it difficult to maintain a stable contact resistance between the battery terminal and the storage battery electrode post.

Detailed implementation manners

[0024] To further understand the features, technical means, specific purposes, and functions achieved by the present invention, the present invention will be described in further detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings and specific implementation manners.

[0025] As Figures 1-7 shown, a battery terminal processing device includes a frame 1. A multi-section conveyor belt 11 that circulates is installed inside the frame 1. It also includes a clamping assembly 2, an inner ring grinding assembly 3, and an end face grinding assembly 4. There are several clamping assemblies 2, which are evenly distributed on the surface of the multi-section conveyor belt 11 and are used to clamp and fix battery terminal products. The clamping assembly 2 includes a track plate 21. A cross track 22 is provided on the surface of the track plate 21. A clamping slider 23 is installed inside the cross track 22. A clamping screw 24 penetrates through the bottom of the clamping slider 23. One end of the clamping screw 24 is fixed to the output shaft of a clamping motor 25. The inner ring grinding assembly 3 is arranged parallel above the multi-section conveyor belt 11 and is used to grind the inner wall of the battery terminal product. The end face grinding assembly 4 is arranged parallel to one side of the inner ring grinding assembly 3. The end face grinding assembly 4 includes a wheel grinding device 41 and a translation device 42. The wheel grinding device 41 is used to grind one side of the surface of the battery terminal, and the translation device 42 is used to enable the wheel grinding device 41 to perform linear reciprocating motion.

[0026] The multi-section drive belt 413 in the device is composed of a number of connecting rods with shaft holes that are rotationally connected end to end through a shaft rod. The multi-section drive belt 413 will drive the clamping assembly 2 on its surface to operate in a cycle. After the clamping assembly 2 clamps the battery terminal product, it will be successively brought within the working ranges of the end face grinding assembly 4 and the inner ring grinding assembly 3, and the battery terminal product that meets the standards can be achieved through the fine grinding of the end face grinding assembly 4 and the inner ring grinding assembly 3. The working principle of the clamping assembly 2 is that first, the rotation of the clamping motor 25 drives the clamping screw rod 24 to rotate within the cross-shaped track 22. Since both ends of the clamping screw rod 24 form a rotational connection structure with the track plate 21, and the internal thread ring provided at the bottom of the clamping slider 23 forms a threaded connection with the clamping screw rod 24, when the clamping screw rod 24 rotates, the clamping slider 23 will move along the axis direction of the clamping screw rod 24 in the cross-shaped track 22. For the two clamping sliders 23 on the same clamping screw rod 24, the thread directions of the internal thread rings provided at their bottoms are opposite, so the clamping sliders 23 can approach or move away from each other when the threaded rod rotates; thus realizing the clamping or releasing of the battery terminal product. This device can automatically transport the battery terminal product to the working ranges of the end face grinding assembly 4 and the inner ring grinding assembly 3 through the multi-section conveyor belt 11 and the clamping assembly 2 for fine processing, improving the processing efficiency of the battery terminal; at the same time, the grinding assembly and the inner ring grinding assembly 3 of this device can also enhance the smoothness and flatness of the inner wall of the battery terminal that is in direct contact with the battery pole column, reducing the contact resistance at the connection between the battery pole column and the battery terminal, and improving the charging and discharging efficiency of the storage battery.

[0027] As Figure 1 and Figure 7 shown, the wheel grinding device 41 includes a grinding wheel 411. One side of the grinding wheel 411 is fixed with a driving wheel 412. The driving wheel 412 and a driving wheel 414 form a transmission structure through a drive belt 413. The driving wheel 414 is installed on the output shaft of the wheel grinding motor 415.

[0028] When the clamping assembly 2 clamps the battery terminal product and enters the working range of the wheel grinding device 41, the wheel grinding motor 415 starts to operate, and its output shaft drives the driving wheel 414 to start rotating. The driving wheel 414 drives the rotating wheel to rotate through the transmission belt 413, and the grinding wheel 411 on one side of the transmission wheel 412 rotates simultaneously and starts to grind some parts of the surface of the battery terminal product. In this device, it is preferred to use the transmission wheel 412, the transmission belt 413, and the driving wheel 414 to form a transmission structure. Its main principle depends on friction and tension. The transmission belt 413 is usually made of rubber, polyurethane, or other flexible materials, and has good elasticity and wear resistance. The transmission belt 413 is installed between the driving wheel 414 and the driven wheel, and is closely attached to the peripheries of both. When the driving wheel 414 starts to rotate, friction will be generated between the contact surface of the transmission belt 413 and the driving wheel 414, and this friction will drive the transmission belt 413 to start moving. The transmission belt 413 is closely attached to the peripheries of the driving wheel 414 and the driven wheel, and transfers the power from the driving wheel 414 to the driven wheel through friction. During the transfer process, the transmission belt 413 will be affected by the tension force and maintain a certain degree of tension to ensure the stability and efficiency of the transmission. This transmission structure has the advantages of smooth transmission, low noise, and good buffering effect. At the same time, because the transmission belt 413 has a certain elasticity, it can absorb and relieve the impact and vibration during the transmission process, protecting the equipment from damage.

[0029] As Figure 1 and Figure 7 shown, the translation device 42 includes a reciprocating frame 421. The two ends of the reciprocating frame 421 penetrate through a translation screw 422. The reciprocating frame 421 is installed on the frame 1 through the translation screw 422. One end of the translation screw 422 is fixed with a driven gear 423, and the driven gear 423 meshes with the tooth grooves of the driving gear 424 through the tooth grooves of one week. The driving gear 424 is fixed on the output shaft of the translation motor 425, and a threaded connection is formed between the translation screw 422 and the reciprocating frame 421.

[0030] When the wheel grinding device 41 starts to operate, the translation motor 425 also starts to operate. The translation motor 425 drives the translation screw 422 fixedly connected to the driven gear 423 to rotate through the meshing between the driving gear 424 at one end of its output shaft and the driven gear 423. Since the translation screw 422 is rotationally connected to the frame 1 and is threadedly connected to the reciprocating frame 421, when the translation screw 422 rotates on the frame 1, the reciprocating frame 421 can move along the axial direction of the translation screw 422, facilitating the grinding of all parts on one side of the battery terminal surface.

[0031] As Figure 1 and Figure 6As shown, the inner ring grinding assembly 3 includes a grinding motor 31. One end of the output shaft of the grinding motor 31 is equipped with a coupling 32. A number of elastic telescopic rods 33 are installed around the coupling 32. One end of the elastic telescopic rod 33 is installed with a grinding cutter head 34. The grinding cutter head 34 forms an elastic structure with the coupling 32 through the elastic telescopic rod 33.

[0032] The elastic structure formed between the grinding cutter head 34 and the coupling 32 through the elastic telescopic rod 33 enables the grinding cutter head 34 to easily insert into the inner walls of battery terminals with various different sizes for grinding work. And during this process, there will be no hard contact with the inner walls of the battery terminals, protecting the integrity of the inner walls of the battery terminals. This structure aims to grind the inner walls of the battery terminals smoother and flatter, so that when they are in contact with the battery posts of the storage battery, the contact resistance between the two can be reduced.

[0033] As Figure 1 and Figure 2 shown, hexagonal rollers 12 are respectively installed on both sides of the frame 1. The hexagonal rollers 12 are arranged inside the multi-section conveyor belt 11 and are used to assist the multi-section conveyor belt 11 to run in a cycle. There is an intermediate support table 13 between the two hexagonal rollers 12. The surface of the intermediate support table 13 fits against the top of the inner circle of the multi-section conveyor belt 413.

[0034] The hexagonal roller 12 is rotationally connected to the frame 1, and the hexagonal roller 12 is provided with rotational driving force by the motor at its shaft end. This part is prior art and will not be elaborated in the specification. There is enough space between the hexagonal roller 12 and the intermediate support table 13 to ensure that the hexagonal roller 12 is not hindered during rotation; the hexagonal roller 12 can drive the multi-section conveyor belt 413 to move forward during rotation, thereby providing power for the cyclic operation of the clamping assembly 2. The intermediate support table 13 and the hexagonal roller 12 also bear the supporting effect on the bottom of the clamping assembly 2 by the inner ring grinding assembly 3 and the end face grinding assembly 4 in the working chamber.

[0035] As Figure 1 shown, a scanning and sensing device 5 is arranged in parallel on one side of the inner ring grinding assembly 3 away from the end face grinding assembly 4, and is used to scan and monitor whether the ground battery terminal products meet the standards.

[0036] The scanning and sensing device 5 here is preferably a laser sensor. The laser sensor is a non-contact sensor and measures by emitting a laser beam. It can accurately measure smaller dimensions and can also measure very fine heights and thicknesses. Through the real-time monitoring of the product by the scanning and sensing device 5, after ensuring that the ground product meets the quality requirements, the clamping motor 25 will be controlled to reverse by the controller, and finally the clamped battery terminal product will be released.

[0037] The above embodiments only represent one or several implementation manners of the present utility model. The description thereof is relatively specific and detailed, but it should not be construed as a limitation to the scope of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those of ordinary skill in the art, without departing from the concept of the present utility model, several modifications and improvements can still be made, and these all belong to the protection scope of the present utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of the present utility model shall be subject to the appended claims.
