Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of powder potting technology, and particularly relates to a potting filler for battery materials. Background Art

[0002] Batteries generally use materials containing lithium elements as positive and negative electrodes, which are representatives of modern high-performance batteries. The chemical properties of lithium metal are very active. Therefore, the processing, storage, and use of lithium metal have very high requirements for the environment. So the production of lithium batteries has relatively high requirements for processes and needs to be carried out under special environmental conditions.

[0003] In the prior art, the Chinese utility model patent publication number: CN216749958U discloses a potting machine for positive and negative battery materials, including: a housing, a potting machine body. The potting machine body includes a feeding device, an automatic line body mechanism, a lifting mechanism, and a pot. It is mentioned that when the photoelectric sensor detects that the pot reaches the matching position below the discharge port, the first sliding component moves upward along the slide rail, and the first sliding component drives the second sliding component and the blocking plate to move upward, that is, the lifting mechanism drives the pot to move upward. The material enters the storage bin through the feeding port, and the loose material enters the discharge channel through the storage stirring shaft. The vacuum pump is connected to the degassing port to degas the gas in the discharge channel, so that the space in the channel that can hold the material becomes more. The material enters the pot from the discharge channel; however, when the material enters the pot in the above patent, the material cannot be evenly distributed in each part of the inner cavity of the pot, thus affecting the subsequent calcination. Summary of the Utility Model

[0004] Based on this, the purpose of the present utility model is to provide a potting filler for battery materials that can evenly distribute the material in each part of the inner cavity of the pot when the material enters the pot.

[0005] The utility model provides the following technical solutions: A potting filler for battery materials, including a bottom plate, a storage mechanism arranged on the bottom plate, and several support members. The storage mechanism is used to store battery materials. An installation plate is arranged on the support members. Several second sliding sleeves are arranged on the installation plate.

Several sliders are slidably connected to the moving frame, and the sliders can slide back and forth along the moving frame. A material placing frame is arranged on the sliders. A receiving cavity adapted to the pot is provided in the middle of the material placing frame. A driving member for driving the moving frame to slide is arranged on the installation plate. The potting filler further includes a pushing component for driving the material placing frame to slide back and forth. The discharge end of the storage mechanism is located above the receiving cavity.

[0006] Furthermore, the pushing component includes several vertical plates arranged on the mounting plate, a horizontal plate arranged on the vertical plates, a pushing hole arranged on the horizontal plate, and a contact rod arranged on the material placing frame. The pushing hole is in a wavy shape, and the contact rod is located inside the pushing hole.

[0007] Furthermore, the driving member is a rodless cylinder. The fixed end of the rodless cylinder is connected to the mounting plate, and the movable end of the rodless cylinder is connected to the moving frame.

[0008] Furthermore, the supporting member includes a first sliding sleeve connected to the bottom plate, and a sliding rod slidably connected to the first sliding sleeve. The sliding rod is connected to the mounting plate. An electric push rod is also arranged on the bottom plate, and the movable end of the electric push rod is connected to the mounting plate. By starting the elongation of the movable end of the electric push rod, the distance between the material placing frame and the discharging end of the storage mechanism can be shortened.

[0009] Furthermore, a through hole is arranged through the lower side of the material placing frame. The through hole is communicated with the accommodating cavity, and a vibrator is arranged at the through hole.

[0010] Furthermore, the storage mechanism includes several brackets connected to the bottom plate, a storage box arranged on the brackets for storing battery materials, a feeding pipe and a discharging pipe respectively arranged at the upper and lower parts of the storage box, and an electric valve arranged on the discharging pipe.

[0011] Furthermore, a shielding plate is arranged at the lower part of the discharging pipe. The size of the shielding plate is larger than the moving range of the material placing frame, and the shielding plate is located below the electric valve.

[0012] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: By starting the rodless cylinder, the movable end of the rodless cylinder will drive the moving frame to slide left and right reciprocally along the second sliding sleeve. The left and right sliding of the moving frame will drive the slider to slide left and right, and the left and right sliding of the slider will drive the material placing frame to slide left and right, thereby causing the crucible to move left and right. Moreover, when the material placing frame moves left and right, the pushing component can also drive the material placing frame to move back and forth. The back-and-forth movement of the material placing frame will also drive the crucible to move back and forth, thereby realizing the movement of the crucible in the front, back, left, and right directions, so that the battery materials can fully fall to various parts of the inner cavity of the crucible for subsequent calcination work.

[0022] A sagger filler for battery materials, as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown in the figure, it includes a bottom plate 1, a material storage mechanism 2 provided on the bottom plate 1, and several support members 3. In this embodiment, two support members 3 are provided, and the number can be appropriately reduced or increased in other embodiments. The material storage mechanism 2 is used to store battery materials. An installation plate 4 is provided on the support member 3, and several second sliding sleeves 5 are provided on the installation plate 4. In this embodiment, two second sliding sleeves 5 are provided, and the number can be appropriately reduced or increased in other embodiments. A moving frame 6 is slidably connected to the second sliding sleeve 5. The moving frame 6 can slide left and right along the second sliding sleeve 5. Several sliders 7 are slidably connected to the moving frame 6. In this embodiment, two sliders 7 are provided, and the number can be appropriately reduced or increased in other embodiments. The slider 7 can slide back and forth along the moving frame 6. A material placement frame 8 is provided on the slider 7. A receiving cavity 9 adapted to the sagger 15 is formed in the middle of the material placement frame 8. A driving member for driving the moving frame 6 to slide is provided on the installation plate 4. The sagger 15 filler further includes a pushing assembly 11. The pushing assembly 11 is used to drive the material placement frame 8 to slide back and forth. The discharge end of the material storage mechanism 2 is located above the receiving cavity 9. The driving member is a rodless cylinder 10. The fixed end of the rodless cylinder 10 is connected to the installation plate 4, and the movable end of the rodless cylinder 10 is connected to the moving frame 6.

[0023] It can be understood that when the operator needs to fill the sagger 15, first, the operator places the sagger 15 into the receiving cavity 9 of the material placement frame 8. The receiving cavity 9 can be used to restrict the movement of the sagger 15. Then, the operator can operate the material storage mechanism 2. The battery materials in the material storage mechanism 2 will be filled into the sagger 15. At the same time, the operator starts the rodless cylinder 10. The movable end of the rodless cylinder 10 will drive the moving frame 6 to slide left and right reciprocally along the second sliding sleeve 5. The left and right sliding of the moving frame 6 will drive the slider 7 to slide left and right. The left and right sliding of the slider 7 will drive the material placement frame 8 to slide left and right. Thus, the sagger 15 is moved left and right. And when the material placement frame 8 slides left and right, the pushing assembly 11 can also drive the material placement frame 8 to slide back and forth. The back and forth movement of the material placement frame 8 will also drive the sagger 15 to move back and forth. Thus, the sagger 15 is moved in all directions of front, back, left, and right, so that the battery materials can fully fall into various parts of the inner cavity of the sagger 15 for subsequent calcination work. When the sagger 15 is filled with battery materials, the operator operates the material storage mechanism 2 to stop feeding, and at the same time closes the rodless cylinder 10 to stop its operation. Then, the sagger 15 filled with battery materials is taken out, and a new sagger 15 is added to continue the above work.

[0024] Such as Figure 3 and Figure 4As shown, the pushing component 11 includes a plurality of vertical plates 111 arranged on the mounting plate 4, a horizontal plate 112 arranged on the vertical plates 111, a pushing hole 113 arranged on the horizontal plate 112, and a contact rod 114 arranged on the material placing frame 8. The pushing hole 113 is in a wavy shape, and the contact rod 114 is located within the pushing hole 113.

[0025] It can be understood that when the material placing frame 8 moves left and right, the material placing frame 8 will drive the contact rod 114 to move left and right. Since the contact rod 114 is restricted by the pushing hole 113 of the horizontal plate 112, the pushing hole 113 will push the contact rod 114, thereby enabling the contact rod 114 to move back and forth. The back-and-forth movement of the contact rod 114 will drive the material placing frame 8 and the slider 7 to move back and forth, causing the battery material to uniformly fall into the sagger 15.

[0026] The support member 3 includes a first sliding sleeve 31 connected to the bottom plate 1, and a sliding rod 32 slidably connected to the first sliding sleeve 31. The sliding rod 32 is connected to the mounting plate 4. An electric push rod 13 is also arranged on the bottom plate 1, and the movable end of the electric push rod 13 is connected to the mounting plate 4. By starting the elongation of the movable end of the electric push rod 13, the distance between the material placing frame 8 and the discharge end of the storage mechanism 2 can be shortened.

[0027] It can be understood that in order to avoid a large amount of dust during the feeding of the storage mechanism 2, the operator can start the electric push rod 13. The elongation of the movable end of the electric push rod 13 will drive the mounting plate 4 to move upward. The mounting plate 4 drives the sliding rod 32 to slide upward within the first sliding sleeve 31. At the same time, the mounting plate 4 will also drive the components thereon to move upward together. Thus, the distance between the material placing frame 8 and the discharge end of the storage mechanism 2 will be reduced, and the sagger 15 within the material placing frame 8 will also be closer to the discharge end of the feeding mechanism. This can avoid a large amount of dust generation during feeding.

[0028] A through hole 16 is provided through the lower side of the material placing frame 8, and the through hole 16 communicates with the accommodating cavity 9. A vibrator 12 is arranged at the through hole 16.

[0029] It can be understood that when the operator is filling the sagger 15, the vibrator 12 can be started to vibrate the sagger 15, thereby enabling the material to be evenly spread in the sagger 15. Specifically, when the operator places the sagger 15 into the accommodating cavity 9 of the material placing frame 8, the bottom surface of the sagger 15 contacts the vibrating end of the vibrator 12. When the operator starts the vibrator 12, it will vibrate the sagger 15, thereby enabling the material in the sagger 15 to be evenly spread in the sagger 15.

[0030] As Figure 5As shown, the material storage mechanism 2 includes several brackets 21 connected to the bottom plate 1, a storage box 22 provided on the brackets 21 for storing battery materials, a feed pipe 23 and a discharge pipe 24 respectively provided at the upper and lower parts of the storage box 22, and an electric valve 25 provided on the discharge pipe 24.

[0031] It can be understood that when it is necessary to make the material storage mechanism 2 discharge materials, the operator can start the electric valve 25. In this embodiment, the electric valve 25 is an electric ball valve, and in other embodiments, it can be an electric butterfly valve, an electric gate valve, etc. When the electric valve 25 is opened, the battery materials in the storage box 22 will fall from the discharge pipe 24 into the crucible 15, thereby realizing the discharging work. When discharging is not required, it is only necessary to close the electric valve 25. The feed pipe 23 is used to add battery materials into the storage box 22.

[0032] A baffle plate 14 is provided at the lower part of the discharge pipe 24. The size of the baffle plate 14 is larger than the moving range of the placing frame 8, and the baffle plate 14 is located below the electric valve 25.

[0033] It can be understood that the operator can start the electric push rod 13 to drive the placing frame 8 to move upward, so that the crucible 15 in the placing frame 8 directly contacts the baffle plate 14. When filling materials, the baffle plate 14 can effectively avoid the generation of dust. The lower side of the baffle plate 14 is made of a material with increased smoothness, which can prevent large friction between the crucible 15 and the baffle plate 14 and cause damage to the crucible 15 and the baffle plate 14.

[0034] In summary, by starting the rodless cylinder 10, the moving end of the rodless cylinder 10 will drive the moving frame 6 to slide left and right reciprocally along the second sliding sleeve 5. The left and right sliding of the moving frame 6 will drive the slider 7 to slide left and right, and the left and right sliding of the slider 7 will drive the placing frame 8 to slide left and right, thereby moving the crucible 15 left and right. When the placing frame 8 moves left and right, the pushing component 11 can also drive the placing frame 8 to move back and forth, and the back and forth movement of the placing frame 8 will also drive the crucible 15 to move back and forth, thereby realizing the movement of the crucible 15 in the front, back, left and right directions, so that the battery materials can fully fall into various parts of the inner cavity of the crucible 15 for subsequent calcination work.

[0035] In the description of this specification, the description of reference terms such as "one embodiment", "some embodiments", "example", "specific example", or "some examples" means that the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described in connection with the embodiment or example are included in at least one embodiment or example of the present invention. In this specification, the schematic representation of the above terms does not necessarily refer to the same embodiment or example. Moreover, the specific features, structures, materials, or characteristics described can be combined in any one or more embodiments or examples in a suitable manner.

[0036] The above-described embodiments merely represent 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 patent 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.
