Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery production equipment, in particular to a battery side gluing mechanism. Background Art

[0002] During the production of stacked batteries, the battery cells tend to become loose after being formed during transportation and subsequent processes, so it is necessary to glue the four sides of the battery cells after stacking.

[0003] The existing battery gluing equipment includes a tape feeding mechanism, a gluing mechanism, and a horizontal drive component and a longitudinal drive component for driving the gluing mechanism to move. The tape feeding mechanism needs to be equipped with multiple rollers to guide the tape, and it also needs to cooperate with the tape pressing mechanism and the tensioning mechanism to realize the tape transportation. The structure is complex, the gluing tension fluctuates greatly, and the gluing stability is poor. At the same time, the structural settings of the horizontal drive component and the longitudinal drive component are unreasonable, resulting in a large overall size of the equipment and occupying a lot of space. Utility Model Content

[0004] The utility model aims to solve the deficiencies in the prior art and provides a battery side gluing mechanism, which can simplify the structure of the gluing equipment, improve the working efficiency of the equipment and reduce the cost.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the present invention adopts the following technical solutions:

[0006] A battery lateral gluing mechanism includes a base, a transverse drive assembly, a vertical drive assembly, and a gluing assembly. The transverse drive assembly drives the vertical drive assembly to move horizontally, and the vertical drive assembly drives the gluing assembly to move up and down. The gluing assembly includes a vertical slide controlled by the vertical drive assembly for up and down movement, a damping unwinding shaft provided on the vertical slide, and a laterally extending gluing rod. The upper surface of the gluing rod is provided with a plurality of vacuum suction holes. Only two rollers are provided between the gluing rod and the damping unwinding shaft. The two rollers include a first roller and a second roller for guiding the tape on the damping unwinding shaft to the gluing rod. The utility model uses a damping unwinding shaft in conjunction with two rollers for unwinding, thereby reducing the influence of the roller inertia on the tape conveying, reducing tension fluctuations during gluing, making gluing more stable, having a simpler structure, and lowering production costs.

[0007] As an optimal technical solution, splints are provided on both sides of the width direction of the rubber-coated long rod, and a guide groove is formed between the splints and the upper surface of the rubber-coated long rod, and the rubber-coated end of the rubber-coated long rod extends horizontally out of the outside of the guide groove.

[0008] As an optimal technical solution, the adhesive end of the adhesive rod is provided with a serrated cutter for cutting the tape. The serrated cutter is hidden in the adhesive rod, and the vertical sliding seat is provided with a cutting cylinder for controlling the serrated cutter to move along the length direction of the adhesive rod.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, the upper surface of the first roller, the upper surface of the second roller and the upper surface of the glue-applying rod are all located on the same horizontal plane, and an optical fiber sensor for detecting whether the tape is used up is provided between the first roller and the second roller.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, the transverse drive assembly includes a rack and a transverse rail arranged parallel to the base, a transverse slide slidably connected to the transverse slide, a transverse drive motor and a gear driven by the transverse drive motor provided on the transverse slide, the transverse drive motor controlling the transverse slide to slide along the transverse rail through the cooperation of the gear and the rack, a vertically extending stand provided on the transverse slide, and the vertical drive assembly provided on the stand. By using the gear and rack to drive the transverse slide horizontally, the overall height of the equipment is reduced, the production space occupied by the equipment is reduced, and production costs are lowered.

[0011] As a preferred technical solution, the vertical drive assembly includes a driving synchronous wheel mounted on a vertical frame, a driven synchronous wheel, and a vertical drive motor that drives the driving synchronous wheel. The driving synchronous wheel drives the driven synchronous wheel via a synchronous belt. A vertical slide rail is provided between the driving and driven synchronous wheels and inside the synchronous belt. The vertical slide is mounted on the vertical slide rail and can slide along the vertical slide rail controlled by the synchronous belt. By providing the vertical slide rail inside the synchronous belt and adopting a single rail placed in the middle of the synchronous belt, the equipment structure is further simplified compared to a dual-rail structure.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution, the driven synchronous wheel and the active synchronous wheel are respectively arranged at the upper and lower ends of the front side of the stand.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution, the length direction of the rubber-coated long rod is parallel to the extension direction of the transverse slide rail.

[0014] As a preferred technical solution, a lateral displacement sensor for detecting the moving position of the transverse slide is provided on one side of the transverse slide rail.

[0015] As a preferred technical solution, a vertical displacement sensor for detecting the moving position of the vertical sliding seat is provided on one side of the vertical sliding rail.

[0016] The working process of this utility model is as follows:

[0017] The tape material reel is passively unwound by the damping unwinding shaft, and the tape passes through the first roller and the second roller from bottom to top and reaches the upper surface of the gluing rod. The gluing rod sucks the non-glue side of the tape through the vacuum suction hole. The vertical drive component first controls the gluing component to move downward, and then the transverse drive component controls the gluing component to move to the bottom of the battery to be glued. The vertical drive component then controls the gluing component to move upward so that the tape on the gluing rod is attached to the lower surface of the battery. Then, the vacuum suction hole stops working, and the transverse drive component controls the gluing component to move away from the battery so that the gluing end of the gluing rod reaches the side of the battery. Then, the vertical drive component controls the gluing component to move upward to a certain height, and then the transverse drive The dynamic component first controls the gluing component to move to the top of the battery to be glued. At this time, the tape bypasses the gluing end of the gluing rod and reaches the lower surface of the gluing rod. The vertical drive component then controls the tape on the lower surface of the gluing rod of the gluing component to be attached to the upper surface of the battery. Then, the vacuum suction hole works again to adsorb the tape on the upper surface of the gluing rod. The cutting cylinder controls the serrated cutter to cut the tape at the gluing end. The transverse drive component controls the gluing component to continue to move transversely, and flattens the tape on the upper surface of the battery through the lower surface of the gluing rod. Finally, the vertical drive component controls the gluing component to lift up, and the transverse drive component controls the gluing component to exit the gluing position, thereby achieving complete U-shaped gluing on the side of the battery.

[0018] Compared with the prior art, the utility model has obvious advantages and beneficial effects. Specifically, by adopting a damping unwinding shaft in conjunction with two rollers for unwinding, the influence of the roller inertia on the belt conveying of the tape is reduced, the tension fluctuation during gluing is reduced, the gluing is more stable, the structure is simpler, and the production cost is lower; by adopting a gear and a rack to drive the horizontal movement of the transverse slide, the overall height of the equipment is reduced, the production space occupied by the equipment is reduced, and the production cost is lower; by arranging a vertical slide rail on the inner side of the synchronous belt and adopting a single rail in the middle of the synchronous belt, the equipment structure is further simplified compared to the double guide rail structure.
