Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to a manufacturing device for a battery module, in particular to a battery positioning and transplanting mechanism. Background Art

[0002] At present, during the stacking process of a battery module, it needs to go through processing stations such as electrical detection and ear cutting and bending of the battery tabs. And during the detection or processing at each station, it is necessary to position the battery. After the detection or processing is completed, it is necessary to transplant the battery to another station. This process needs to be completed by a battery positioning and transplanting mechanism. The existing battery positioning and transplanting are realized by two separate mechanisms. The battery positioning can only adapt to one size of battery for positioning. When replacing batteries of different sizes, it is necessary to replace the battery positioning mechanism to achieve this. Transplanting generally uses a manipulator to carry between two stations. The accuracy requirement for the manipulator to carry is relatively high. When the accuracy does not meet the requirement, the battery cannot be accurately placed in the battery positioning groove of the positioning mechanism. Summary of the Invention

[0003] In order to overcome the disadvantages and deficiencies existing in the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a battery positioning and transplanting mechanism.

[0004] The purpose of the utility model is achieved by the following technical solutions: A battery positioning and transplanting mechanism, including a battery positioning frame, a battery head positioning mechanism and a transplanting mechanism. There is a spacing between the battery positioning frame and the battery head positioning mechanism. The transplanting mechanism includes a transplanting support plate, and the transplanting support plate can move in the spacing. A battery positioning platform is provided on the battery positioning frame, and the battery positioning platform and the battery head positioning mechanism jointly position the battery. When the transplanting mechanism transplants the battery, the battery head positioning mechanism resets to cancel the abutment restriction on the battery, and the battery is in a non-clamped state. The transplanting mechanism can lift the battery upward and drive the battery to move a distance of one station.

[0005] As an improvement of the battery positioning and transplanting mechanism of the utility model, two battery positioning grooves are provided on the battery positioning platform. A notch is provided in the middle of each battery positioning groove. A battery tail positioning reference block is provided at one end of the battery positioning groove. A clamping and positioning drive is provided on one side of the battery positioning frame, and the clamping and positioning drive controls two clamping brackets to clamp the battery through a bidirectional lead screw.

[0006] As an improvement of the battery positioning and transplanting mechanism of the utility model, a first clamping block and a third clamping block are provided on one of the clamping brackets, and a second clamping block and a fourth clamping block are provided on the other clamping bracket. The first clamping block and the second clamping block jointly clamp the battery on one of the battery positioning grooves, and the third clamping block and the fourth clamping block clamp the battery on the other battery positioning groove.

[0007] As an improvement of the battery positioning and transplanting mechanism of the present utility model, the battery tail positioning reference block includes a spring screw positioning plate and a top pressing plate. A spring positioning screw is passed through the spring screw positioning plate, a spring is sleeved on the spring positioning screw, and the spring positioning screw is connected to the top pressing plate.

[0008] As an improvement of the battery positioning and transplanting mechanism of the present utility model, the transplanting mechanism further includes a pallet lifting control servo and a transverse movement servo module. The pallet lifting control servo is installed on the transverse movement plate. The transplanting pallet is connected to the transverse movement plate through a slide rail and a slider. The pallet lifting control servo drives the lifting of the transplanting pallet through a lead screw and a lead screw nut. A plurality of horizontally arranged adsorption plates are spaced at the upper end of the transplanting pallet, and a plurality of adsorption holes are spaced on the adsorption plates. The number of vent holes of the adsorption holes can be selectively opened according to the size of the battery. When the battery size is large, all the adsorption holes are opened to adsorb the battery. When the battery size is small, some of the adsorption holes are closed and not ventilated, and only the adsorption holes in the middle part are kept ventilated.

[0009] As an improvement of the battery positioning and transplanting mechanism of the present utility model, the adsorption plate is in a T shape. When the transplanting mechanism transplants the battery, the adsorption plate can extend out from the notch, adsorb the battery and lift it up, and the transverse movement servo module controls the adsorption plate to move a distance of one station.

[0010] As an improvement of the battery positioning and transplanting mechanism of the present utility model, the battery head positioning mechanism includes a movable mounting frame, the movable mounting frame is controlled to move by a cylinder, a spacing adjustment servo and upper and lower movable mounting plates are arranged on the movable mounting frame. The upper and lower movable mounting plates are respectively connected to the adjusting bidirectional lead screw through lead screw nuts. The adjusting bidirectional lead screw is controlled to rotate by the spacing adjustment servo. A plurality of top pressing push blocks are spaced on both the upper and lower movable mounting plates. The cylinder can drive the top pressing push blocks to push the battery so that the tail end of the battery abuts against the battery tail positioning reference block.

[0011] The beneficial effects of the present utility model are as follows: The present utility model is used on the detection, processing and conveying line for battery module stacking, for positioning the battery and transplanting the battery between each station. After each station detects or processes the battery, the transplanting mechanism is required to transplant the battery to the next station. The present utility model adopts the method of positioning the reference at the tail end of the battery, which can be compatible with various batteries of different sizes for positioning and transplanting, and has higher compatibility.
