Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of conveying equipment, and specifically relates to a lithium battery conveying circulation device. Background Art

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are rocking-chair batteries that rely on the reciprocating motion of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes to store and release energy. The energy density of a lithium-ion battery refers to the amount of energy a battery of a given mass or volume can store or release. The greater the number of lithium ions that can be stored or released per unit mass or volume, the higher the energy density of the battery. During battery life, the active materials and active lithium ions in the battery are gradually lost. The less active material and active lithium ions are lost, the better the capacity retention of the lithium-ion battery.

[0003] At present, in the lithium battery production process, the back end of the lithium battery production line adopts material frame flow, which requires a robot to clamp the material, send the material to the inside of the material frame, and then take out the lithium battery after transfer. The whole process causes investment costs and worthless actions in the operation process. That is, the battery flow process undergoes frequent worthless actions of "grabbing into the frame" and "grabbing in the frame", a total of 9 grabbing actions, and each action requires a robot to complete, resulting in high production line costs (high material frame costs and high machinery costs). Therefore, a lithium battery conveying and circulation device is proposed that does not require robots to frequently grab, and directly uses belt drive to flow into a single machine for operation.
