Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium battery protection plates, in particular to an automatic blanking mechanism for lithium battery protection plates. Background Art

[0002] As a core component of consumer electronic devices such as smart phones and smart watches, lithium batteries have been developing in the direction of small size, high energy density, safety and reliability. Lithium battery protection plates are also getting smaller and more precise.

[0003] During the production process of lithium batteries, it is necessary to blank the protection plates. Traditionally, manual blanking of the protection plates is carried out. This manual blanking method not only has low efficiency, but also easily causes deformation of the nickel sheets of the protection plates, affecting the product quality.

[0004] Therefore, how to provide an automatic blanking mechanism for lithium battery protection plates to improve the blanking efficiency and quality of lithium battery protection plates has become an urgent technical problem to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0005] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to provide an automatic blanking mechanism for lithium battery protection plates to improve the blanking efficiency and quality of lithium battery protection plates.

[0006] The utility model is realized as follows: an automatic blanking mechanism for lithium battery protection plates, comprising:

[0007] A robot component;

[0008] A tray suction component, arranged at the mobile end of the robot component and communicated with the robot component;

[0009] A protection plate clamping component, arranged at the mobile end of the robot component;

[0010] The robot component includes:

[0011] A base;

[0012] A robotic arm, installed on the base; both the tray suction component and the protection plate clamping component are arranged at the mobile end of the robotic arm;

[0013] A terminal block, installed on the robotic arm;

[0014] An electromagnetic valve, installed on the robotic arm and connected to the terminal block;

[0015] A vacuum generator, installed on the robotic arm, with the control end connected to the electromagnetic valve and the output end communicated with the tray suction component.

[0016] Further, the tray suction component includes:

[0017] A first lifting cylinder, arranged at the mobile end of the robotic arm, with the power output end facing downwards;

[0018] A first mounting plate, horizontally arranged at the power output end of the first lifting cylinder;

[0019] Four suction cups, installed on the first mounting plate from top to bottom and connected to the vacuum generator.

[0020] Further, the protection plate clamping component includes:

[0021] A second mounting plate, horizontally arranged at the mobile end of the robotic arm;

[0022] Two second lifting cylinders, installed at the bottom end of the second mounting plate, with the power output ends facing downwards;

[0023] Two clamping cylinders, respectively installed at the power output ends of one of the second lifting cylinders, and the power output ends face downwards.

[0024] The advantages of the present utility model are as follows:

[0025] By arranging a tray suction component and a protection plate clamping component at the mobile end of the robotic component, the tray suction component uses the first lifting cylinder to link the suction cups for lifting, and the suction cups are connected to the vacuum generator of the robotic component. The protection plate clamping component uses the second lifting cylinder to link the clamping cylinders for lifting. That is, after the robotic component controls the tray suction component and the protection plate clamping component to move to the corresponding workstations, the tray can be sucked by the suction cups, and the protection plate can be clamped by the clamping cylinders, thereby automatically discharging the lithium battery protection plate without manual intervention, ultimately greatly improving the efficiency and quality of the lithium battery protection plate discharging.
