Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery packaging, in particular to a battery packing machine. Background Art

[0002] During the production process of lead-acid batteries, the lead-acid batteries need to be packaged and boxed. In the existing technology, the lead-acid batteries are generally required to be manually loaded into the packaging boxes one by one. This not only increases the labor intensity of the workers, but also reduces the work efficiency and increases the cost of packaging the lead-acid batteries.

[0003] In order to solve the above problems, the patent document with announcement number CN210028110U discloses a battery packing device. When in use, the batteries are sequentially put onto the first conveyor belt and transported to its end direction. When the first photoelectric sensor senses the batteries on the first conveyor belt, the PLC controller starts the first cylinder, and the first cylinder pushes the batteries onto the transition plate in sequence through the push plate. At the same time, the electromagnetic induction switch on the first cylinder sends a signal to the PLC controller and counts in the PLC controller. When the number of batteries on the transition plate is equal to the number of batteries in a packaging box, the PLC controller starts the stepper motor, and the stepper motor moves the fifth cylinder toward the first conveyor belt through the synchronous belt. When the fifth cylinder is on When the fence moves to the left side of the battery on the transition plate, the PLC controller starts the fifth cylinder and the telescopic rod of the fifth cylinder extends. At this time, the movement trajectory of the fence passes through the battery on the transition plate. The PLC controller enables the stepper motor to push the battery on the transition plate to the second conveyor belt through the synchronous belt, the fifth cylinder and the fence. When the second photoelectric sensor senses the battery on the second conveyor belt, the PLC controller starts the motor that drives the second conveyor belt. After the second conveyor belt starts, the battery above it is transported to the front side of the third cylinder. When the third photoelectric sensor senses the battery, the PLC controller makes the telescopic rod of the third cylinder extend. After the telescopic rod of the third cylinder extends, the movable plate drops. At this time, the movable plate passes the battery on the second conveyor belt along the movement trajectory of the light rod. At the same time, the electromagnetic induction switch on the third cylinder sends a signal to the PLC controller, and the PLC controller starts the servo motor. After the servo motor starts, the screw rotates, and the screw drives the third cylinder to approach the third conveyor belt. At the same time, the battery is pushed to the third conveyor belt by the movable plate. The battery is pushed to the third conveyor belt. At this time, the third photoelectric sensor cannot sense the battery, and the PLC controller makes the second cylinder move the lifting frame downward, and the lifting frame drives the battery clamp downward. When the two plywood of the battery clamp is on both sides of the battery, the electromagnetic induction switch on the second cylinder sends a signal to the PLC controller, and then the PLC controller starts the fourth cylinder, and the telescopic rod of the fourth cylinder contracts. The lifting rod causes the two plywood of the battery clamp to rotate relative to each other through the connecting rod, and then the battery is moved Clamp, and at the same time, the electromagnetic induction switch on the fourth cylinder sends a signal to the PLC controller, then the PLC controller retracts the telescopic rod of the second cylinder, and the lifting frame drives the battery upward through the battery clamp, and the PLC controller delays the extension of the telescopic rod of the second cylinder. At this time, the operator opens the box mouth and puts it on the lower end of the battery. The telescopic rod of the second cylinder extends and drives the lifting frame down. When the telescopic rod of the second cylinder is fully extended, all the batteries are in the box. The PLC controller restores the telescopic rod of the fourth cylinder, and the two splints lose their clamping effect on the battery. Then the PLC controller enables the second cylinder to make the lifting frame rise, the battery clamp is separated from the box, and the third transmission belt is started to transport the packed batteries to the next workstation.

[0004] In order to improve the safety of lead-acid batteries during transportation, existing lead-acid batteries need to place buffer plates between two adjacent lead-acid batteries after packing. The buffer plates are generally foam plates. However, after the lead-acid batteries are packed, it is inconvenient to place the buffer plates between two adjacent lead-acid batteries due to the uneven gaps between the lead-acid batteries. Therefore, the existing packing machine needs to be improved. Utility Model Content

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0023] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be described clearly and completely below in conjunction with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments.

[0024] Example 1: Reference Figure 1 As shown, a battery packing machine includes a frame 1, a pulley 2 is slidably connected to the front end of the frame 1 in the vertical direction, the upper end of the pulley 2 is connected to the upper end of the frame 1 through a cylinder 3, a bracket 4 is fixed to the lower end of the pulley 2, and a plurality of clamping components 5 are installed at the lower end of the bracket 4. A conveyor belt 6 is installed on the frame 1, and the plurality of clamping components 5 are located above the conveyor belt 6. The plurality of clamping components 5 are evenly distributed in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 6.

[0025] Reference Figure 5 As shown, the clamping assembly 5 includes two symmetrically arranged front and rear clamping plates 502, each of which is fitted with a non-slip sleeve. A lifting plate 504 is provided between the two clamping plates 502. The front and rear ends of the lifting plate 504 are respectively connected to the two clamping plates 502 via a connecting plate 503. The distance between the upper ends of the two connecting plates 503 is smaller than the distance between the lower ends of the two connecting plates 503. The upper end of the connecting plate 503 is rotatably connected to the lifting plate 504, and the lower end of the connecting plate 503 is rotatably connected to the clamping plate 502 on one side. The upper end of the lifting plate 504 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the telescopic rod 505. Fixed rods 501 are fixed to the front and rear sides of the lower end of the bracket 4. The upper end of the clamping plate 502 is rotatably connected to the fixed rod 501 on one side, and the upper end of the telescopic rod 505 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the bracket 4.

[0026] Reference Figure 2-Figure 4 As shown, both ends of the bracket 4 in the conveying direction of the conveyor belt 6 are fixed with positioning components, and the lower end of the bracket 4 between two adjacent clamping components 5 is fixed with a cone plate 7. The cone plate 7 is made of hard rubber.

[0027] The positioning assembly includes a side plate 8 fixedly connected to the bracket 4. Two vertical rotating rods 10 are rotatably connected to the side plate 8. Specifically, the two rotating rods 10 on the side plate 8 are symmetrically arranged front to back. The rotating rods 10 extend through the side plate 8. A motor 9 corresponding to the rotating rods 10 is fixed to the upper end of the side plate 8. The output shaft of the motor 9 is concentrically fixedly connected to the rotating rod 10 on one side. A push rod 11 is fixed to the lower end of the rotating rod 10.

[0028] During operation, multiple lead-acid batteries are arranged sequentially along the conveyor belt 6 along its conveying direction. The cylinder 3 is activated, and the pulley 2, bracket 4, cone plate 7, multiple clamping assemblies 5, and two positioning assemblies descend. At this point, the push rod 11 is positioned entirely below the side plate 8. Once the multiple lead-acid batteries on the conveyor belt 6 are positioned between the side plates 8, the left and right motors 9 are simultaneously activated. These motors 9 drive the rotating rods 10 to rotate, which in turn causes the push rods 11 to swing. This swinging of the push rods 11 gathers the multiple lead-acid batteries. After the left and right push rods 11 contact the lead-acid batteries on their respective sides, the resulting assembly of multiple lead-acid batteries is centered between the side plates 8. At this point, the cone plate 7 corresponds to the gap between adjacent lead-acid batteries. The lead-acid batteries and the rotating rod 10 then rotate the push rod 11 back to its original position, positioning the entire push rod 11 below the side plates 8.

[0029] Then the pulley 2, bracket 4, cone plate 7, multiple clamping components 5 and two positioning components continue to descend. After the cone plate 7 is inserted between two adjacent lead-acid batteries, a gap is generated between the two adjacent lead-acid batteries to allow the buffer plate to be inserted.

[0030] The telescopic rod 505 then drives the lifting plate 504 upward, and the front and rear clamps 502 clamp the lead-acid batteries. After the clamps 502 secure the lead-acid batteries, the cylinder 3 retracts, causing the pulley 2, bracket 4, cone plate 7, multiple clamping assemblies 5, multiple lead-acid batteries, and two positioning assemblies to move upward. The worker then places the packaging box over the side panels 8 and the outside of the clamps 502. The cylinder 3 then extends, causing the pulley 2, bracket 4, cone plate 7, multiple clamping assemblies 5, multiple lead-acid batteries, two positioning assemblies, and packaging box to move downward. Once the packaging box lands on the conveyor 6, the telescopic rod 505 drives the lifting plate 504 downward, and the clamps 502 release their grip on the batteries. Subsequently, the cylinder 3 retracts, causing the pulley 2, bracket 4, cone plate 7, multiple clamping assemblies 5, and two positioning assemblies to move upward and out of the packaging box. At this point, there is enough space between adjacent batteries in the packaging box to accommodate a buffer plate. The conveyor 6 transports the packaging box and its contents to the next station for placement of a buffer plate.

[0031] Example 2: Based on Example 1, refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3 As shown, one end of the push rod 11 is fixedly connected to the lower end of the rotating rod 10. The push rod 11 is made of hard rubber.

[0032] When the rotating rod 10 drives the push rod 11 to rotate and position the lead-acid battery, the push rod 11 made of hard rubber can prevent the lead-acid battery shell on one side of the push rod 11 from being damaged by a large pressure.

[0033] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present invention and is not intended to limit the present invention. Any modifications, equivalent replacements and improvements made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included in the scope of protection of the present invention.
