Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery shell cleaning equipment, in particular to a battery shell cleaning device. Background Art

[0002] Cleaning the battery shell is an extremely important process in the battery production process. The newly processed battery shell carries a large amount of processing residues, such as waste generated during milling and cutting, and electrolyte remaining on the surface of the lithium-ion battery aluminum shell after injection. If these processing residues are not cleaned thoroughly, they will cause great harm to the subsequent use of the battery. If the processing residues enter the battery, it will reduce the battery life.

[0003] Current cleaning devices immerse the battery casing in a flushing tank and clean it with water pressure. During the flushing process, the battery casings collide with each other and are damaged. At the same time, water pressure flushing alone causes the battery casing to move continuously within the frame, resulting in incomplete cleaning of the battery casing. Summary of the Invention

Multiple storage areas for battery shells are formed between the two placement plates, and then a power mechanism drives the placement rack to rotate on the bottom plate, and the cleaning mechanism cleans the battery shell. The battery shell is restricted in the storage area and will not move, so the battery shell is cleaned more thoroughly.

[0005] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution of the utility model is:

DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments:

[0022] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, this embodiment provides a battery casing cleaning device, comprising a base plate 1, a first cylinder 2 is fixed on the base plate 1, and the upper end of the first cylinder 2 is opened;

[0023] A placement rack is rotatably provided on the bottom plate 1, and the placement rack is located in the first cylinder 2. The placement rack includes a second cylinder 3, multiple placement plates 4 and partitions 5. The multiple placement plates 4 are fixed on the second cylinder 3 from top to bottom, and there is a gap between two adjacent placement plates 4. Multiple partitions 5 are arranged between two adjacent placement plates 4, and a storage area for multiple battery shells 6 is formed between the two placement plates 4; multiple water holes 7 are opened on the first cylinder 2 and the second cylinder 3; in this embodiment, the placement plate 4 is annular, and the outer periphery of the placement plate 4 contacts the outer side of the first cylinder 2. The first cylinder 2 limits the battery shell 6 to prevent it from falling out of the storage area when the placement rack rotates.

[0024] The cleaning device further includes a power mechanism and a cleaning mechanism. The power mechanism drives the placement rack to rotate on the bottom plate 1 , and the cleaning mechanism is used to clean the battery housing 6 on the placement plate 4 .

[0025] Specifically, a top plate 8 is fixedly mounted on the top of the rack, with a ring gear 9 fixed to the outside of the top plate 8. The power mechanism includes a gear 10, a rotating shaft 11, and a motor. The gear 10 is fixedly connected to the rotating shaft 11, meshing with the ring gear 9. The output end of the motor is in driving connection with the rotating shaft 11. In this embodiment, the motor is placed in a housing 18, and the end of the rotating shaft 11 extends into the housing 18 and is in driving connection with the output end of the motor. The housing 18 prevents the motor from being damaged by water during the cleaning process.

[0026] In this embodiment, there are three placement plates 4 , and a top plate 8 is fixedly installed on the top of the placement rack to form a storage area for three layers of battery shells 6 .

[0027] Universal wheels 12 are mounted on the underside of the bottommost placement plate 4, and a circular track (not shown) is provided on the bottom plate 1 to cooperate with the universal wheels 12. The circular track limits the movement of the universal wheels 12, allowing the placement rack to achieve a similar self-rotation effect, thus preventing transmission problems between the gear 10 and the ring gear 9.

[0028] Specifically, the cleaning mechanism includes a first pipeline, a second branch pipe 13, a water pump 14 and a nozzle 15 provided on the first pipeline and the second branch pipe 13. The first pipeline is located on the outside of the first cylinder 2, and the nozzle 15 on the first pipeline faces the first cylinder 2. The nozzle 15 on the second branch pipe 13 is located in the second cylinder 3 and the nozzle 15 on the second branch pipe 13 faces the inner wall of the second cylinder 3. The first pipeline and the second branch pipe 13 are both connected to the water pump 14, and the water pump 14 is connected to an external water source.

[0029] Furthermore, the first pipeline includes a first main pipe 16 and a plurality of first branch pipes 17 connected to the first main pipe 16. The first main pipe 16 is fixed to the bottom plate 1 in an annular shape. The plurality of first branch pipes 17 are evenly distributed above the first main pipe 16. The nozzles 15 are evenly arranged on the first branch pipes 17 from top to bottom. The first main pipe 16 is connected to the water pump 14 through a pipeline. Water from the nozzles 15 on the first branch pipes 17 passes through the water holes 7 on the first barrel 2 to rinse the outer surface of the battery housing 6.

[0030] Furthermore, one end of the second branch pipe 13 extends from the bottom to the top of the base plate 1, and the other end is connected to the water pump 14. The second branch pipe 13 is provided with multiple groups of nozzles 15 from top to bottom, each group of nozzles 15 having multiple nozzles, and the multiple nozzles 15 are arranged in a ring shape on the second branch pipe 13. Water from the nozzles 15 on the second branch pipe 13 passes through the water holes 7 on the second barrel 3 to rinse the inner side of the battery housing 6.

[0031] At the same time, a plurality of water holes 7 are provided on the placement plate 4 and the bottom plate 1 to prevent water from remaining on the placement rack.

[0032] In this embodiment, a lifting ring (not shown in the figure) is welded on the top plate 8. After the battery housing 6 is cleaned, an external lifting device takes the placement rack out of the first cylinder 2 through the lifting ring.

[0033] When using this device to clean multiple battery shells 6, the placement rack has not yet been placed in the first cylinder 2. Manually place multiple battery shells 6 in the storage areas of multiple battery shells 6, and then use external lifting equipment to place the placement rack in the first cylinder 2. At this time, the universal wheel 12 enters the circular track on the bottom plate 1, and the motor is turned on. The rotating shaft 11 drives the gear 10 to rotate, and the ring gear 9 engaged with the gear 10 drives the placement rack to rotate in the circular track, so that the placement rack achieves a similar rotation effect. The first cylinder 2 restricts the battery shells 6 in the storage area to prevent them from falling out. At this time, the water pump 14 is turned on, and the water from the nozzle 15 on the first branch pipe 17 passes through the water hole 7 on the first cylinder 2 to flush the outer side of the battery shell 6, and the water from the nozzle 15 on the second branch pipe 13 passes through the water hole 7 on the second cylinder 3 to flush the inner side of the battery shell 6. After cleaning, turn off the water pump 14 and the motor and the placement rack can be taken out of the first cylinder 2 by external lifting equipment.

[0034] The embodiments described above are only preferred embodiments of the present invention and do not limit the scope of implementation of the present invention. Therefore, any equivalent changes or modifications made based on the structure, features and principles described in the patent scope of the present invention should be included in the scope of the patent application of the present invention.
