Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of mechanical manufacturing, in particular to an automatic folding device for an automobile battery cover. Background Art

[0002] An automotive battery cover is a component installed on the outside of a vehicle battery to protect it. It consists of an inner and outer cover: the inner cover is heat-insulating, while the outer cover is waterproof. The inner cover is typically made of felt, formed and cut by thermoforming, then ultrasonically welded at both ends. The outer cover is typically made of PP hollow plastic sheeting, cut to the desired shape and size, creased, and ultrasonically welded at both ends. Once welded, the outer cover is slipped over the inner cover to complete the battery cover assembly. Since the inner and outer covers are manufactured separately, they need to be placed in a material rack for easy circulation. The inner cover is made of soft, foldable felt, while the outer cover is made of rigid plastic. After welding, it must be manually folded before being placed in the material rack, which consumes labor and reduces production efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.

[0024] Referring to Figures 1 to 2 , an embodiment provided by the present invention: an automatic folding device for an automobile battery cover, which includes a pneumatic pressing device main body 1 and an electric control box 2 for controlling the operation of the device. The electric control box 2 is connected to a 220V power supply through a wire 23. The electric control box 2 controls the on and off of a solenoid valve 5 through a wire 21. The solenoid valve 5 is connected to a speed controller 6 through an air pipe 51. The speed controller 6 is connected to a cylinder 4 through an air pipe 61. The speed controller 6 controls the operating speed of the cylinder 4 by adjusting the air flow rate. A pressure regulating valve 7 is connected to an external air source through an air pipe 71. The function of the pressure regulating valve 7 is to control the air pressure. The pressure regulating valve 7 is connected to an oil mist lubricator 8. The oil mist lubricator 8 is connected to the solenoid valve 5 through an air pipe 81. The function of the oil mist lubricator 8 is to lubricate the cylinder 4. An infrared sensor 3 is fixed on the pneumatic pressing device main body 1 through a bracket 31. The infrared sensor 3 is connected to the electric control box 2 through a wire 22.

[0025] Working principle: Referring to Figure 3 , place the battery cover inside the pneumatic pressing device main body 1, trigger the infrared sensor 3, and the infrared sensor 3 sends a signal to the electric control box 2. After receiving the signal, the electric control box 2 sends an instruction to open the solenoid valve 5. The solenoid valve 5 opens the compressed air leading to the cylinder 4, and the compressed air pushes the cylinder 4 to operate, and the cylinder 4 drives the pressing plate 41 to rise. After the battery cover is placed inside the pneumatic pressing device main body 1, it leaves the sensing area of the infrared sensor 3. The infrared sensor 3 sends a signal to the electric control box 2. After receiving the signal, the electric control box 2 sends an instruction to open the solenoid valve 5. The solenoid valve 5 opens the compressed air leading to the cylinder 4, and the compressed air pushes the cylinder 4 to operate, and the cylinder 4 drives the pressing plate 41 to descend to fold the battery cover. When the operator takes the folded battery cover, the hand passes through the sensing area of the infrared sensor 3. The infrared sensor 3 sends a signal to the electric control box 2. After receiving the signal, the electric control box 2 sends an instruction to open the solenoid valve 5. The solenoid valve 5 opens the compressed air leading to the cylinder 4, and the compressed air pushes the cylinder 4 to operate, and the cylinder 4 drives the pressing plate 41 to rise, and the operator can take out the folded battery cover. After taking out the battery cover, the infrared sensor 3 sends a signal to the electric control box 2. After receiving the signal, the electric control box 2 sends an instruction to open the solenoid valve 5. The solenoid valve 5 opens the compressed air leading to the cylinder 4, and the compressed air pushes the cylinder 4 to operate, and the cylinder 4 drives the pressing plate 41 to descend. The above actions are repeated. The operator only needs to perform two actions: put in the unfolded battery cover and take out the folded battery cover.

[0026] Finally, it should be noted that the above are only the preferred embodiments of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or perform equivalent replacements for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent replacements, improvements, etc. made within the spirit and principle of the present utility model shall be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
