DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0034] In order to make the above-mentioned objects, features and advantages of the present invention more obvious and easy to understand, the present invention is further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific implementation methods.
[0035] An embodiment of the present utility model provides a transmission transition mechanism for a sintering furnace, comprising: a base plate 1, the sintering furnace having a first conveyor belt, the first conveyor belt being used for discharging sintered battery cells, the base plate 1 being arranged between the first conveyor belt and the second conveyor belt, the second conveyor belt being used for transferring the battery cells to subsequent processes; a transition platform 5 being fixedly arranged on the base plate 1; a steering plate 6 being rotatably arranged on the transition platform 5 and connected to the first conveyor belt, the battery cells being able to be transferred from the first conveyor belt to the steering plate 6; a flipping drive mechanism 2 being transmission-connected to the steering plate 6, for driving the steering plate 6 to rotate to a position corresponding to the second conveyor belt; an ejection mechanism 7 being arranged on the base plate 1, for ejecting the battery cells on the steering plate 6 from the steering plate 6 to the second conveyor belt.
[0036] In this embodiment, a guide plate 4 is also included. When the steering plate 6 rotates to a position corresponding to the second conveyor belt, the guide plate 4 is located between the rotating plate and the second conveyor belt. The guide plate 4 is tilted to facilitate the movement of the battery cells from the rotating plate to the second conveyor belt.
[0037] In this embodiment, it also includes a support leg 3, which is arranged on the base plate 1, and the upper end of which is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the transition platform 5. The function of the support leg 3 is to define the installation space of the flip drive mechanism 2 between the base plate 1 and the transition platform 5, and it can also raise the height of the rotating plate. The sintered battery cells move along the first conveyor belt to the end, and then can fall onto the upper surface of the rotating plate. It should be noted that the first conveyor belt and the rotating plate can be connected in a corresponding manner from top to bottom, and the rotating plate does not interfere with the first conveyor belt during rotation. The rotating plate adopts a square plate, and can be rotated intermittently to continuously transport battery cells.
[0038] In this embodiment, the flip drive mechanism 2 includes a rotating rod 205 that passes through the transition platform 5 and is connected to the transition platform 5 via a bearing seat. The rotating rod 205 is rotatable relative to the transition platform 5. The upper end of the rotating rod 205 is fixedly connected to the lower surface of the rotating plate. A support 204 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod 205. A flip arm 203 is horizontally disposed below the transition platform 5, with one end fixedly connected to the support 204. A first cylinder 201 is rotatably mounted on the base plate 1 via a rotating seat 202. The output end of the first cylinder 201 is hingedly connected to the other end of the flip arm 203. The first cylinder 201 is used to rotate the rotating rod 205 and rotate the diverter plate 6 to a position corresponding to the second conveyor belt. When the first cylinder 201 is outputting air, the output end of the first cylinder 201 drives the flip arm 203 to rotate about the rotating rod 205. The flip arm 203, in turn, drives the support 204, the rotating rod 205, and the rotating plate to rotate.
[0039] In this embodiment, it also includes: a support frame 8, which is fixedly mounted on the base plate 1, and an ejection mechanism 7 disposed on the support frame 8. There are two groups of support frames 8, which are arranged symmetrically on the left and right, and an installation space is defined between the two groups of support frames 8. The ejection mechanism 7 includes: a second cylinder 705, which is fixedly mounted on the support frame 8; an ejection plate 704, which is fixedly connected to the output end of the second cylinder 705, and the ejection plate 704 corresponds to the upper surface of the rotating plate. When the steering plate 6 rotates to a position corresponding to the second conveyor belt, the second cylinder 705 can drive the ejection plate 704 to eject the battery cells on the rotating plate from the steering plate 6 to the second conveyor belt.
[0040] In this embodiment, the protective frame 701 is further included, which is fixedly mounted on the support frame 8 and in which the second cylinder 705 is fixedly mounted; a plurality of outer cylinders 702, each of which is provided with a telescopic rod 703. The plurality of outer cylinders 702 are symmetrically arranged on the left and right sides of the second cylinder 705 and mounted in the protective frame 701, and the telescopic rod 703 is fixedly connected to the ejection plate 704. The protective frame 701 provides a stable and secure mounting base for the second cylinder 705 and is also used to mount the outer cylinder 702. The outer cylinder 702 and the telescopic rod 703 define the direction of movement of the ejection plate 704 during operation of the second cylinder 705, thereby improving the reliability and stability of the ejection plate 704 in ejecting the battery cells onto the second conveyor belt.
[0041] The specific working process is as follows:
[0042] After being sintered in the sintering furnace, the battery cell is sent to the first conveyor belt and moves along the first conveyor belt to its end.
[0043] When the battery cell moves to the end of the first conveyor belt, the battery cell automatically falls onto the upper surface of the rotating plate because the first conveyor belt is connected to the rotating plate.
[0044] The first cylinder 201 is started, and drives the rotating plate to rotate through the flip arm 203, the support 204 and the rotating rod 205. The rotating plate drives the battery sheet to rotate toward the second conveyor belt until it corresponds to the second conveyor belt.
[0045] The second cylinder 705 is activated, and the battery cells on the rotating plate are moved toward the guide plate 4 through the ejection plate 704. The battery cells fall onto the second conveyor belt through the guide plate 4 and are then transferred to the next process.
[0046] Since the rotating plate is a square plate, the rotating plate only needs to maintain the current state and does not need to be reset to prepare for the transportation of the next battery cell.
[0047] In the description of the present invention, it should be understood that the terms "longitudinal", "transverse", "up", "down", "front", "back", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inside", "outside", etc., indicating the orientation or position relationship, are based on the orientation or position relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing the present invention, and do not indicate or imply that the device or element referred to must have a specific orientation, be constructed and operated in a specific orientation. Therefore, they should not be understood as limitations on the present invention.
[0048] The embodiments described above are merely preferred embodiments of the present invention and are not intended to limit the scope of the present invention. Without departing from the spirit of the present invention, various modifications and improvements to the technical solutions of the present invention made by ordinary technicians in this field should fall within the scope of protection determined by the claims of the present invention.
