DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0021] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the embodiments described are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention. Example

[0022] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 , a manual boxing and anti-skin breakage device for a logistics system, comprising a battery loading and unloading mechanism 1 and a loading and unloading partition 2, the battery loading and unloading mechanism 1 comprises a lifting drive 11 and a battery support 12, the lifting drive 11 is a vertically arranged cylinder, oil cylinder, electric push rod, motor drive module and other linear motion components, the lifting drive 11 is preferably a cylinder, the action part of the lifting drive 11 is connected to the battery support 12, the lifting drive 11 drives the battery support 12 to move up and down, the battery support 12 is in the form of a support plate, a support block, etc., the upper end surface of the battery support 12 is its working end surface, the upper end surface of the battery support 12 is provided with a battery top support column 13, the top end of the battery top support column 13 is set as a top support end surface, and the battery can be placed upright on the top support end surface of the top of the battery top support column 13. A loading and unloading partition 2 is provided above the battery support 12, and a battery loading and unloading channel 21 is provided on the loading and unloading partition 2 above each battery top support column 13. The battery loading and unloading channel 21 can be a loading and unloading hole that passes through the upper and lower end surfaces of the loading and unloading partition 2. For convenience and practicality, the upper end of the loading and unloading hole is expanded.

[0023] The lifting drive member 11 drives the battery support member 12 to move up and down between the battery loading and unloading position and the standby position. When the lifting drive member 11 drives the battery support member 12 to the battery loading and unloading position, the battery support member 12 is at a height close to the loading and unloading partition 2. At this time, when the battery is loaded into the battery loading and unloading channel 21, the battery falls onto the corresponding battery top support column 13. In order to ensure that the battery can be stably placed on the battery top support column 13 through the battery loading and unloading channel 21, when the battery support member 12 is in the battery loading and unloading position, a part of the battery placed upright on the battery top support column 13 is still in the battery loading and unloading channel 21. As a preferred embodiment, in order to make the device of this patent applicable to battery loading and unloading operations at the same time, when the battery support member 12 is in the battery loading and unloading position, the top of the battery placed upright on the battery top support column 13 is above and outside the battery loading and unloading channel 21, so that personnel can remove the battery from above the loading and unloading partition 2. When the lifting drive 11 drives the battery support 12 to descend to the standby position, the battery support 12 is at a height away from the loading and unloading partition 2. At this time, the battery placed upright on the battery top support column 13 is completely out of the battery loading and unloading channel 21.

[0024] A tray entry and exit gap is reserved between the loading and unloading partition 2 and the battery support 12, and the tray entry and exit gap is used to place the battery tray 4. When the battery tray 4 moves and aligns within the tray entry and exit gap, each battery placement position on the battery tray 4 corresponds to each battery top support column 13 of the battery support 12 up and down, and at the same time corresponds to each battery loading and unloading channel 21 on the loading and unloading partition 2 up and down. A top support column avoidance hole is provided at each battery placement position on the battery tray 4. The size of the top support column avoidance hole should be such that the battery top support column 13 can pass through but the battery cannot pass through. When the battery tray 4 moves and aligns within the tray entry and exit gap, the lifting drive part 11 can drive each battery top support column 13 of the battery support 12 to pass through the corresponding top support column avoidance hole.

[0025] Preferably, the distribution of the battery top support columns 13 on the battery support 12 is consistent with the distribution of the battery placement positions on the battery tray 4, and the distribution of the battery loading and unloading channels 21 on the loading and unloading partition 2 is consistent with the distribution of the battery placement positions on the battery tray 4. When the battery tray 4 moves and aligns within the tray entry and exit gap, the battery placement positions on the battery tray 4 correspond to the battery loading and unloading channels 21 above, and to the battery top support columns 13 below.

[0026] When using the device of this patent to manually pack batteries, the battery support member 12 is in the standby position. After the empty battery tray 4 is placed into the tray inlet and outlet gap and the alignment is adjusted, the lifting drive member 11 drives the battery support member 12 to move to the battery loading and unloading position. At this time, each battery top support column 13 passes through the top support column avoidance hole of the battery tray 4 respectively and is located at each battery placement position of the battery tray 4 respectively. The batteries are respectively put into each battery loading and unloading channel 21 from the loading and unloading partition 2, and the batteries are erected to the top of the battery top support column 13. Then the lifting drive member 11 drives the battery support member 12 to move to the standby position, and the batteries on each battery top support column 13 follow and descend. When the battery top column 13 descends and disengages from the top support column avoidance hole, the battery cannot pass through the top support column avoidance hole, and the battery falls to the battery placement position of the battery tray 4.

[0027] When the battery of this patent is used to manually remove the battery, the battery support 12 is in the standby position. After the battery tray 4 containing the battery is placed in the tray inlet and outlet gap and the alignment is adjusted, the lifting drive 11 drives the battery support 12 to move to the battery loading and unloading position. During the movement of the battery support 12 to the battery loading and unloading position, each battery top support column 13 is also lifted synchronously. The battery top support column 13 passes through the corresponding top support column avoidance hole and lifts the battery at the corresponding battery placement position, so that the top of the battery passes through the corresponding battery loading and unloading channel 21 and extends to the top of the loading and unloading partition 2. At this time, the battery can be removed at the top of the loading and unloading partition 2. After the battery is removed, the lifting drive 11 drives the battery support 12 to move to the standby position.

[0028] See also Figure 1-Figure 4In order to ensure that the lifting drive member 11 can drive the battery support member 12 to move up and down stably, the battery loading and unloading mechanism 1 also includes a frame 15, which is provided with legs. The frame 15 is supported by the legs. The lifting drive member 11 is set on the frame 15, and a lifting guide mechanism 14 is provided between the battery support member 12 and the frame 15. The lifting guide mechanism 14 is used to limit the movement direction of the battery support member 12 relative to the frame 15, so as to prevent the battery support member 12 from tilting and moving, resulting in the battery loading and unloading channel 21 not corresponding to the battery top support column 13.

[0029] As a specific example, the lifting guide mechanism 14 includes a guide rod and a linear bearing. The guide rod is vertically arranged and connected to the battery support member 12. The guide rod is provided with a linear bearing, which is connected to the frame 15. Multiple sets of lifting guide mechanisms 14 can be provided to ensure that the battery support member 12 can move in a predetermined direction.

[0030] In order to facilitate the movement and alignment of the battery tray 4 in the tray entry and exit gap, a tray carrier 16 is arranged between the loading and unloading partition 2 and the battery support 12, and a tray placement position is provided on the tray carrier 16, and the battery tray 4 is quickly aligned by utilizing the edge contour or positioning component of the tray placement position.

[0031] As a further embodiment, a tray guide mechanism 3 is provided on the frame 15, see Figure 1-Figure 4 The tray guide mechanism 3 is arranged on the side plate arranged on the frame 15, and the tray carrier 16 is arranged on the tray guide mechanism 3 and moves between the battery loading and unloading operation position and the tray loading and unloading position along the direction guided by the tray guide mechanism 3. When the tray carrier 16 moves to the battery loading and unloading operation position, the battery tray 4 on the tray carrier 16 moves to the battery loading and unloading operation position. At this time, the battery placement positions of the battery tray 4 correspond to the battery loading and unloading channels 21 of the loading and unloading partition 2 up and down, and the batteries can be loaded and unloaded from the battery tray 4 through the battery loading and unloading channels 21; when the tray carrier 16 moves to the tray loading and unloading position, the tray carrier 16 moves to the outside of the tray moving gap, and at this time, the tray can be placed on the tray carrier 16 or the battery tray 4 can be removed from the tray carrier 16.

[0032] The tray guide mechanism 3 includes a guide rail 31, which is connected to the frame 15. One end of the guide rail 31 extends to the outside of the tray entry and exit gap. In order to prevent the guide rail 31 from deforming, an extension plate is provided at the end of the side plate of the frame 15. The part of the guide rail 31 extending out of the tray entry and exit gap is connected to the extension plate. The tray carrier 16 is connected to the slide rail and moves along the slide rail.

[0033] See also Figure 1-Figure 4The guide mechanism includes two guide rails 31, and the tray carrier 16 includes two slides. The two slides are respectively installed on the two guide rails 31 and move along the guide rails 31. The slides are provided with tray alignment grooves. When the battery tray 4 is set on the tray carrier 16, the positioning protrusions of the battery tray 4 itself cooperate with the tray alignment grooves on the slides to realize rapid positioning of the battery tray 4 and the tray carrier 16.

[0034] The frame 15 is provided with a tray stopper 32. When the tray carrier 16 moves along the guide rail 31 to the battery loading and unloading operation position, the tray carrier 16 or the battery tray 4 contacts the tray stopper 32, which facilitates the movement of the tray into the correct position. The tray carrier 16 is also provided with a pull-out handle 33, which facilitates the movement of the tray carrier 16 along the guide rail 31, thereby facilitating the insertion and removal of the battery tray 4 into or out of the tray movement gap.
