Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of lithium battery fixed transportation, and particularly relates to an electrode tray baffle turning mechanism. Background Art
[0002] In the current economic downturn, some large-scale manufacturing plants are actively developing automated equipment to reduce labor costs and lower operating expenses. This requires comprehensive consideration of every detail. For example, the electrodes needed for lithium battery production require a snap-on carrier tray called a "SKID" to transport them. The electrodes are wrapped around a storage rod and placed in the SKID's slot, where they are manually secured by flipping the tabs. The electrode consumption time is not fully determined, requiring dedicated personnel to complete this process. This significantly wastes labor costs and is inefficient in mass production. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to achieve the above-mentioned purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is as follows: an electrode tray baffle flipping mechanism, which includes a device body, a tray bottom positioning mechanism, a SKID support plate position positioning mechanism and a baffle flipping mechanism. The baffle flipping mechanism is fixed on both sides of the tray where the product is located, and the SKID support plate position positioning mechanism is fixed together with the baffle flipping mechanism.
[0004] Based on the above technical features, the flipping mechanism is fixed on both sides of the pallet where the product is located, which is convenient for flipping the baffle of the pallet. The positioning mechanism at the bottom of the pallet: when the pallet is transported to the designated position, the PLC determines that it is in place, and the positioning mechanism is positioned at the end of the pallet. The SKID support plate position positioning mechanism is fixed together with the flipping mechanism. When the flipping mechanism is on standby, its position is not in the working position. At this time, it is necessary to change the positioning mechanism to move the flipping mechanism and position the working position of the flipping mechanism at the same time.
[0005] As an improvement of the present invention, the pallet bottom positioning mechanism includes a cylinder and a positioning mechanism fixing plate. The pallet bottom positioning mechanism is completed by the cylinder. The pallet bottom positioning mechanism also includes a cylinder fixing bracket. The cylinder fixing bracket is fixed on CV, where CV refers to the product transportation mechanism.
[0006] As an improvement of the present invention, the SKID support plate position positioning mechanism includes a slide moving cylinder, a first linear slider, a positioning plate moving cylinder, a positioning plate moving slider, a positioning plate and a mechanism fixed support mechanism. The slide moving cylinder, the first linear slider, the positioning plate moving cylinder, the positioning plate moving slider and the positioning plate are arranged on the mechanism fixed support mechanism, the slide is fixed on the mechanism fixed support mechanism through the first linear slider, the slide moving cylinder is connected to the slide, and the positioning plate moving cylinder, the positioning plate moving slider and the positioning plate are arranged on the slide.
[0007] Based on the above technical features, the position corresponding to each mechanism is modulated according to the actual position of the product, and the fixing method adopted is: bundling fixation based on a fixed mechanism to ensure that the mechanism does not shake during automated operation, thereby improving the accuracy of the equipment and achieving improved production efficiency.
[0008] The two support plates on the SKID used to support the electrodes are foldable. When opened, the opening angle is not completely vertical. Such a positioning mechanism is needed to make it reach a completely vertical state to facilitate the placement of the electrode storage rod.
[0009] Action sequence: The slide cylinder drags the entire slide forward. After it is in place, the positioning cylinders on both sides move forward to both sides, so that the storage tables on both sides of the SKID reach a vertical state, waiting for the subsequent placement of the electrode storage rods.
[0010] As an improvement of the present utility model, the baffle flipping mechanism includes a rotating block, a slide moving cylinder, a second linear slider, a flipping electrode, a rotating mechanism moving cylinder, a mobile slide and a mechanism fixed support. The rotating block, the slide moving cylinder, the second linear slider, the positioning buffer, the flipping electrode, the rotating mechanism moving cylinder and the mobile slide are arranged on the mechanism fixed support, the flipping mechanism moving cylinder is arranged above the mobile slide, and the rotating block and the flipping electrode are arranged above the flipping mechanism moving cylinder.
[0011] Based on the above technical features, the position of the fixed mechanism is used, and the slide moving cylinder pushes the entire flip mechanism to move to the corresponding position. Then the flip mechanism moving cylinder drives the flip mechanism to move to the corresponding position. The motor rotates to drive the flip block to rotate, and the rotating block drives the SKID side block to rotate to the relative position. The block is withdrawn, and all positioning mechanisms return to the original position. The loaded SKID flows to the next workstation.
[0012] As an improvement of the present invention, the baffle flipping mechanism further includes a positioning buffer, and the positioning buffer is arranged above the movable slide.
[0013] Based on the above technical features, the positioning buffer acts as a buffer when the rotating mechanism moves into position, reducing the impact of the cylinder, extending the service life of the cylinder and ensuring precise positioning.
[0014] As an improvement of the present invention, the fixing position of the positioning mechanism is adapted to the size of the SKID tray.
[0015] Compared with the existing technology, the beneficial effects of the present invention are: the present invention realizes the replacement of manual labor with machinery, improves accuracy, reduces damage to products, saves costs for enterprises, and improves operational efficiency.

It should be understood that the following specific embodiments are only used to illustrate the present invention and are not used to limit the scope of the present invention.
[0024] Example: Figure 1As shown, an electrode tray baffle flipping mechanism 4 includes a device body, a tray bottom positioning mechanism, a SKID support plate position positioning mechanism 3 and a baffle flipping mechanism 4. The baffle flipping mechanism 4 is fixed on both sides of the tray where the product is located, and the SKID support plate position positioning mechanism 3 and the baffle flipping mechanism 4 are fixed together.
[0025] Furthermore, the pallet bottom positioning mechanism includes a cylinder and a positioning mechanism fixing plate 202. The pallet bottom positioning mechanism is completed by the cylinder. The pallet bottom positioning mechanism also includes a cylinder fixing bracket, and the cylinder fixing bracket is fixed on the CV (CV refers to the product transport mechanism, as shown below Figure 6 ).
[0026] Furthermore, the SKID support plate position positioning mechanism 3 includes a first slide moving cylinder 301 , a first linear slider 302 , a positioning plate moving cylinder 303 , a positioning plate moving slider 304 , a positioning plate 305 and a mechanism fixing support mechanism 306 .
[0027] The two support plates on the SKID used to support the electrodes are foldable. When opened, the opening angle is not completely vertical. Such a positioning mechanism is needed to make it reach a completely vertical state to facilitate the placement of the electrode storage rod.
[0028] Action sequence: The slide cylinder drags the entire slide forward. After it is in place, the positioning cylinders on both sides move forward to both sides, so that the storage tables on both sides of the SKID reach a vertical state, waiting for the subsequent placement of the electrode storage rods.
[0029] Furthermore, the baffle flipping mechanism 4 includes a rotating block 404 , a second slide moving cylinder 401 , a linear slider 402 , a positioning buffer 403 , a rotating electrode, a rotating mechanism moving cylinder, a moving slide 407 and a mechanism fixing support 408 .
[0030] The fixed mechanism position is used, and the slide moving cylinder pushes the entire flip mechanism to move to the corresponding position. Then the flip mechanism moving cylinder 406 drives the flip mechanism to move to the corresponding position. The positioning buffer 403 acts as a buffer when the rotating mechanism moves into place, reducing the impact of the cylinder, extending the service life of the cylinder and accurate positioning. The rotation of the motor drives the flip block to rotate, and the rotating block 404 drives the SKID side block to rotate to the relative position. The block is withdrawn, and all positioning mechanisms return to the original position. The loaded SKID flows to the next station.
[0031] Furthermore, the fixing position of the positioning mechanism is adapted to the size of the SKID tray.
[0032] Working principle: The empty SKID is transported to the electrode loading station by logistics; the positioning mechanism fixes the skid position and waits for the electrode roll to be loaded; the electrode roll is moved to the SKID slot position by the robotic arm; after the electrode roll is loaded into the skid slot, the flipping mechanism drives the skid slot to flip and fix the electrode roll storage rod; after all actions are completed, the equipment automatically scans the code to identify the uploaded data and moves to the next station.
[0033] By connecting this station device to relevant systems, you can achieve automatic skid transportation, automatic loading, automatic fixing of the card slot, automatic identification and uploading of information, and complete program control. In order to facilitate special circumstances that require human intervention, manual and automatic switching is set.

For ordinary technicians in this technical field, they can make several improvements and modifications without departing from the principles of the utility model. These improvements and modifications all fall within the protection scope of the claims of the utility model.
