Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of batteries, and particularly relates to a flipping device. Background Art

[0002] With the popularization of new energy technologies, the development of battery technologies has become increasingly important. Among them, battery packs are usually used to provide power, and a battery pack usually contains multiple single lithium batteries.

[0003] In the positive and negative production lines of lithium batteries, powder pouring is one of the important processes. It is necessary to send a graphite crucible from a conveyor line to a flipping machine, pour out the powder in the graphite crucible completely through a flipping motion mode, and then send the graphite crucible back to the conveyor line.

[0004] Existing flipping mechanisms have the problem that the powder cannot be poured out completely. Due to imperfect clamping, limiting and other measures, it is difficult to increase the angle when flipping the crucible. Even if the powder is poured twice by flipping, there is still a problem of powder residue. If the number of powder pouring times is increased, the powder pouring efficiency will be greatly reduced. In addition, the operation efficiency of the crucible between the conveyor line and the flipping mechanism is low, resulting in low efficiency of the overall powder pouring process and high overall cost of the process. Summary of the Utility Model

[0005] Aiming at the deficiencies of the prior art, the purpose of the utility model is to provide a flipping device, aiming to solve the problems of powder pouring residue and low powder pouring efficiency existing in the existing flipping devices.

[0006] To achieve the above purpose, the utility model is realized by the following technical solutions:

[0028] Please refer to Figures 1 to 5, the flipping device in the embodiment of the present utility model includes a frame 100, a flipping mechanism and a driving mechanism 300. The flipping mechanism includes a first motor 210, a rotating shaft 211, a bearing component and a clamping component. The first motor 210 is arranged on the frame 100. The output end of the first motor 210 is connected to the rotating shaft 211. The rotating shaft 211 is connected to the bearing component. The bearing component is used for placing the material box 400. The bearing component includes side plates 220, a top plate 230, a plurality of bottom plates 223 and a plurality of connecting parts 221. A plurality of the connecting parts 221 are sleeved on the rotating shaft 211. A plurality of the connecting parts 221 are all connected to one side of the side plates 220. The side of the side plates 220 away from the connecting parts 221 is connected to the top plate 230. The side of the side plates 220 close to the connecting parts 221 is connected to a plurality of the bottom plates 223.

Specifically, a plurality of slide rails 224 are arranged on one side of the side plates 220. The first clamping part 240 and the second clamping part 250 are both connected to a plurality of the slide rails 224 through a plurality of sliders 225. The side of the side plates 220 facing the slide rails 224 is connected to the second motor 271 and the third motor 272. The second motor 271 and the third motor 272 are both located between the first clamping part 240 and the second clamping part 250. The output end of the second motor 271 is connected to the first clamping part 240. The output end of the third motor 272 is connected to the second clamping part 250 to drive the first clamping part 240 and the second clamping part 250 to clamp the material box 400. A plurality of clamping blocks 260 are arranged on the side of the first clamping part 240 facing the second clamping part 250 and on the side of the second clamping part 250 facing the first clamping part 240. The clamping blocks 260 are used for abutting against the side wall of the material box 400.

[0029] Preferably, the connecting portion 221 is provided with a connecting hole 222 for the rotation shaft 211 to pass through. The number of the slide rails 224 is 2, and the number of the sliders 225 is 4. Two sliders 225 are slidably connected to each slide rail 224. The first clamping portion 240 includes a transition portion 226 and a clamping plate. The transition portion 226 is U-shaped and perpendicular to the clamping plate. Both the transition portion 226 and the clamping plate are connected with a reinforcing plate. The reinforcing plate is right-angled triangular. The transition portion 226 is connected to the slide rail 224 through the two sliders 225. A part of the second motor 271 is surrounded by the U-shaped transition portion 226. The clamping plate is connected with the clamping block 260. The structure and connection mode of the second clamping portion 250 are the same as those of the first clamping portion 240. The number of the clamping blocks 260 on each clamping plate is 8. Please refer to Figure 1 , it can be understood that the process of clamping the material box 400 is highly automated. The clamping block 260 is beneficial to adapting to the structure of the side wall of the material box 400, making the clamping more stable.

[0030] Both the first clamping portion 240 and the second clamping portion 250 are connected with a rotating motor 251. The output end of the rotating motor 251 is connected with an abutting member 252. The abutting member 252 is used for abutting against the third side wall of the material box 400. A limiting plate 231 is arranged on one side of the top plate 230. The limiting plate 231 is adapted to the top of the fourth side wall of the material box 400. Preferably, the third side wall is the side wall of the material box 400 facing away from the side plate 220, and the fourth side wall is the side wall of the material box 400 facing the side plate 220. The abutting member 252 is L-shaped. One end of the abutting member 252 is connected with the output shaft of the rotating motor 251, and the other end of the abutting member 252 is perpendicular to the third side wall of the material box 400. It can be understood that the first clamping portion 240, the second clamping portion 250 and the abutting member 252 provide supporting forces in three directions for the material box 400. The fourth side wall abuts against the transition portion 226, and the side plate 220 provides the supporting force. The limiting plate 231 and the bottom plate 223 act together to provide longitudinal limitation for the material box 400. The flipping mechanism fixes the material box 400 in all directions. When the rotation shaft 211 rotates at any angle, the material box 400 will not fall off from the flipping mechanism. Compared with the traditional flipping device, the flipping mechanism has a larger flipping angle for the material box 400, effectively avoiding powder residue and wasting cost.

[0031] The driving mechanism 300 includes a fourth motor 310, a transmission shaft 311, and a plurality of driving components 320.

The driving component 320 includes a first fixing plate 321, a second fixing plate 322, and a plurality of rollers 330. The rollers 330 are used to abut against the bottom surface of the material box 400. One end of the roller 330 is movably connected to the first fixing plate 321. A first gear is arranged at the end of the roller 330 close to the first fixing plate 321. The plurality of first gears are meshed with each other. The other end of the roller 330 away from the first fixing plate 321 is movably connected to the second fixing plate 322. A plurality of second gears are arranged on the transmission shaft 311. The second gears are used to drive the first gears. The transmission shaft 311 is used to drive the plurality of rollers 330 to rotate. Preferably, the number of the driving components 320 is 2. The plurality of bottom plates 223 are at the same height as the two driving components 320, and the plurality of bottom plates 223 are located between the two driving components 320. It can be understood that the driving component 320 can make the material box 400 slide on the bottom plate 223, so that the material box 400 approaches or moves away from the loading and unloading component, completing the loading and unloading process, improving the transfer efficiency of the material box 400 between the tipping device and the conveyor line, and improving the overall efficiency of the powder pouring process.

[0032] Two first connecting plates 201 and a second connecting plate 110 are arranged on the frame 100. One of the first connecting plates 201 is connected to the first motor 210, and the other first connecting plate 201 is connected to the stabilizing part. The end of the rotating shaft 211 facing away from the first motor 210 is rotatably connected to the stabilizing part.
