Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the technical field of industrial carrier cleaning, and more specifically, to an industrial carrier cleaning device and system. Background Art

[0002] The front-end processes for assembling a single battery module are as follows: placing the module plastic parts on the industrial carrier and then transporting them inside the equipment for operations such as gluing, screwing the side plates, installing the battery cells, and screwing the cover plates. All these processes are completed on the upper production line. After the operations on the upper production line are completed, the battery module needs to be removed from the upper production line. Then, the industrial carrier descends to the lower production line through a lift and flows into the front end of the lower production line for cyclic operations.

[0003] When the industrial carrier enters the equipment for gluing, sometimes glue overflow occurs due to valve body damage, resulting in the glue not being absorbed back and dripping onto the surface of the industrial carrier. If the glue accumulated on the surface of the industrial carrier is not cleaned in time and solidifies and bulges, it will affect the flatness of placing the module plastic parts on the industrial carrier, affect the gluing effect, and cause poor gluing.

[0004] In addition, since the current production line is a semi-automatic line and each workstation is equipped with personnel for operation, operators often lose foreign objects such as screws on the industrial carrier, which flow into the subsequent workstations or the next cyclic operation, resulting in uneven gluing, scratching of the battery cell module, short circuit and sparking of the module, etc., seriously affecting product quality and personnel safety.

[0038] The following will describe in detail some embodiments of the present application in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. Without conflict, the following embodiments and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other.

[0039] As described in the background art, when the industrial carrier is transported on the production line, there may be impurities such as glue substances and screws on the surface of the industrial carrier. If not processed, after the industrial carrier flows into the subsequent workstations for operation or the next cycle of operation, it will cause uneven gluing, scratching of the battery cell module, short circuit and sparking of the module, etc., seriously affecting product quality and personnel safety.

[0040] Therefore, how to clean the industrial carrier is a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently by those skilled in the art.

[0041] To solve the above technical problem, please refer to Figure 1 , an industrial carrier cleaning device 10 is provided in an embodiment of the present application. The industrial carrier cleaning device 10 includes: a receiving tray 100 and at least one cleaning component 200. Among them, the cleaning component 200 is arranged directly above the receiving tray 100.

[0042] Optionally, the projected area of the cleaning component 200 on the receiving tray 100 is smaller than the area of the receiving tray 100.

[0043] As Figure 2 shown, the cleaning component 200 is located above the first production line 20, and the cleaning component 200 is used to remove impurities on the industrial carrier 30. Among them, the industrial carrier 30 is placed on the top of the first production line 20, and the top of the first production line 20 is used to transport the industrial carrier 30.

[0044] The receiving tray 100 is fixed to the bottom of the first production line 20, and the receiving tray 100 is arranged corresponding to the cleaning component 200. The receiving tray 100 is used to collect the impurities dropped from the industrial carrier 30 under the action of the cleaning component 200.

[0045] Based on the above design, when the industrial carrier 30 is transported on the first production line 20 and reaches the cleaning range of the cleaning component 200, the bottom of the cleaning component 200 will contact the surface of the industrial carrier 30. As the industrial carrier 30 moves, the cleaning component 200 can sweep the glue substances and screws and other impurities on the surface of the industrial carrier 30 into the receiving tray 100 fixed to the bottom of the first production line 20, preventing the impurities from dripping to the ground.

[0046] To ensure that the impurities on the industrial carrier 30 can be cleaned thoroughly, multiple cleaning components 200 can be provided. For example, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, two parallel cleaning components 200 can be provided, and both of these cleaning components 200 are located directly above the material receiving tray 100 to clean the surface of the work carrier 30 twice, increasing the cleaning range of the cleaning component 200 and improving the cleaning effect.

[0047] Similarly, three or more cleaning components 200 can also be provided, and the number of cleaning components 200 is not limited in the embodiments of the present application.

[0048] It should be noted that in actual operation, the work carrier carrying the module performs the front-end process of assembling a single module under the transmission of the upper line body. After the upper line body finishes its operation, the module is removed from the work carrier, and the work carrier is lowered to the lower line body through the elevator and moved to the front end of the lower line body under the drive of the lower line body to perform the next round of operation.

[0049] To ensure that there are no impurities such as glue substances and screws on the surface of the work carrier 30 during the entire cycle of operation, please refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , in an alternative embodiment, the cleaning component 200 includes a brush 210 and a sheet metal part 220. One end of the brush 210 faces the top of the first line body 20, and the other end of the brush 210 is fixed to the second line body 40 through the sheet metal part 220. Among them, the second line body 40 is located above the first line body 20.

[0050] That is to say, the second line body 40 in the embodiments of the present application is equivalent to the upper line body in the actual production line, and the first line body 20 in the embodiments of the present application is equivalent to the lower line body in the actual production line.

[0051] After the work carrier 30 finishes various operations on the second line body 40, it descends to the top of the first line body 20. By arranging the brush 210 between the first line body 20 and the second line body 40 through the sheet metal part 220, the work carrier 30 after the previous round of operation can be cleaned to ensure that there are no impurities such as glue substances and screws on the surface of the work carrier 30 when it performs the next round of operation.

[0052] In an alternative embodiment, the work carrier cleaning device 10 further includes a first fixing member and a second fixing member, and the sheet metal part 220 includes a first L-shaped sheet metal part 221, a second L-shaped sheet metal part 222, and a connecting member 223.

[0053] Among them, the horizontal parts of the first L-shaped sheet metal part 221 and the second L-shaped sheet metal part 222 are both fixed to the bottom of the second line body 40 through the first fixing member. One end of the connecting member 223 is connected to the vertical part of the first L-shaped sheet metal part 221, and the other end of the connecting member 223 is connected to the vertical part of the second L-shaped sheet metal part 222. In addition, the connecting member 223 is also connected to the brush 210 through the second fixing member.

[0054] In addition, in order to enhance the cleaning effect of the brush 210 on the work carrier 30, in the embodiment of the present application, the brush 210 is made of hard hair material.

[0055] In a feasible implementation manner, the brush 210 is detachably connected to the connecting member 223 through a second fixing member. During the use of the brush 210, regularly check and confirm the wear degree of the brush 210. If the wear degree is too high, replace the brush 210 to ensure that the brush 210 can effectively clean the impurities on the work carrier 30.

[0056] The specific structure of the material receiving tray 100 is as Figure 5 shown. As a feasible implementation manner, the work carrier cleaning device 10 further includes a third fixing member. The material receiving tray 100 includes a first side wall 110, a second side wall 120, and a bottom material receiving tray 130.

[0057] Combined with Figures 3 to 5 , in the embodiment of the present application, the length direction of the bottom material receiving tray 130 is parallel to the movement direction of the work carrier 30, and the length direction of the bottom material receiving tray 130 is orthogonal to the length direction of the cleaning assembly 200.

[0058] The width direction of the bottom material receiving tray 130 is orthogonal to the movement direction of the work carrier 30, and the width direction of the bottom material receiving tray 130 is parallel to the length direction of the cleaning assembly 200.

[0059] The first side wall 110 and the second side wall 120 are respectively vertically connected to the width direction of the bottom material receiving tray 130. And, both the first side wall 110 and the second side wall 120 are fixed to the side wall of the first line body 20 through a third fixing member.

[0060] Through the first side wall 110 and the second side wall 120, it is ensured that the bottom material receiving tray 130 is located at the bottom of the first line body 20 to collect the impurities dropped by the work carrier 30 under the action of the cleaning assembly 200 and prevent the impurities from dripping onto the ground.

[0061] To ensure that the impurities on the work carrier 30 can smoothly flow to the bottom material receiving tray 130, please refer to Figure 5 again. In the embodiment of the present application, the material receiving tray 100 further includes a third side wall 140 and a fourth side wall 150. Among them, the third side wall 140 and the fourth side wall 150 are respectively connected to the length direction of the bottom material receiving tray 130.

[0062] Furthermore, the third side wall 140 and the fourth side wall 150 are respectively inclinedly connected to the length direction of the bottom material receiving tray 130, and the third side wall 140 and the fourth side wall 150 are inclined inward from top to bottom, so as to ensure that the impurities can slide along the inclined third side wall 140 or fourth side wall 150 to the bottom material receiving tray 130.

[0063] To prevent the material receiving tray 100 from being rusted by impurities, as an optional implementation manner, the material receiving tray 100 is made of aluminum alloy.

[0064] In addition, the embodiment of the present application also provides a tooling carrier cleaning system. The tooling carrier cleaning system includes the tooling carrier cleaning device 10 described in any one of the foregoing implementation manners.

[0065] In summary, the embodiment of the present application provides a tooling carrier cleaning device and system. The tooling carrier cleaning device includes a material receiving tray and at least one cleaning component. The cleaning component is located above the first production line, and the cleaning component is used to remove impurities on the tooling carrier. Among them, the tooling carrier is placed on the top of the first production line, and the top of the first production line is used to transport the tooling carrier. The material receiving tray is fixed to the bottom of the first production line, and the material receiving tray is arranged corresponding to the cleaning component. The material receiving tray is used to collect the impurities dropped from the tooling carrier under the action of the cleaning component.

[0066] When the tooling carrier is transported on the first production line and reaches the cleaning range of the cleaning component, the bottom of the cleaning component will contact the surface of the tooling carrier. As the tooling carrier moves, the cleaning component can sweep the glue substances and screws and other impurities on the surface of the tooling carrier into the material receiving tray fixed to the bottom of the first production line, preventing the impurities from dripping to the ground.
