[0033] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of this application to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of this application. Obviously, the embodiments described are part of the embodiments of this application, not all of them. Based on the embodiments in this application, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0034] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the specification and claims of the present application are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the data used in this way can be interchanged under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present application can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein, and the objects distinguished by "first", "second", etc. are generally of a kind and do not limit the number of objects, for example, the first object can be one or more. In addition, "and / or" in the specification and claims indicates at least one of the connected objects, and the character " / " generally indicates that the front and rear associated objects are in an "or" relationship.

[0035] The carrying mechanism and microneedle buckling test machine provided by the embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below in conjunction with the drawings, specific embodiments and application scenarios.

[0036] As shown in Figures 1 to 4 The carrying mechanism provided by the embodiments of the present application is used to carry the battery 100 to the microneedle module, and includes a first driving member 200, a suction member 300 connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 200, and a side pressing assembly 400. The suction member 300 and the side pressing assembly 400 are arranged at intervals. The suction member 300 is used to suck the battery body 120 of the battery 100. Optionally, the suction member 300 can suck the battery body 120 by means of vacuum adsorption, so that the battery body 120 can realize position transfer under the action of the carrying mechanism. The side pressing assembly 400 is used to fix the soft plate 112 of the protection plate 110 of the battery 100. The first driving member 200 can drive the suction member 300 and the side pressing assembly 400 to ascend and descend together. The first driving member 200 can drive the suction member 300 and the side pressing assembly 400 to ascend and descend together along the Z-axis direction. Optionally, the carrying mechanism further includes a mechanical hand. The first driving member 200 is arranged on the mechanical hand. When the suction member 300 sucks the battery body 120, the mechanical hand drives the first driving member 200, the suction member 300 and the side pressing assembly 400 to move together.

[0037] In the case that the suction member 300 sucks the battery body 120, the side pressing assembly 400 can press the soft plate 112 of the protection plate 110, so that the soft plate 112 is attached to the peripheral surface of the battery body 120, to fix the soft plate 112. In the case that the connector 111 of the protection plate 110 is placed on the microneedle module, and the microneedle module fixes the connector 111, the suction member 300 releases the battery body 120. The first driving member 200 can drive the suction member 300 and the side pressing assembly 400 to ascend, so that the side pressing assembly 400 is staggered with the battery body 120 in the thickness direction of the battery body 120. At this time, the side pressing assembly 400 is disengaged from the soft plate 112, so as to facilitate the movement of the mechanical hand, the first driving member 200, the suction member 300 and the side pressing assembly 400 together, to carry the next battery body 120.

[0038] In the embodiment of the present application, when the suction member 300 absorbs the battery body 120, the side pressure assembly 400 presses the soft plate 112 of the protective plate 110, causing the soft plate 112 to fit the circumference of the battery body 120, thereby fixing the soft plate 112 to the circumference of the battery body 120. When the transport mechanism transports the battery 100 to the connector 111 of the protective plate 110 and inserts the microneedle module, and the microneedle module fixes the connector 111, the suction member 300 releases the battery body 120, and then the first driving member 200 drives the suction member 300 and the side pressure assembly 400 to rise, so that the side pressure assembly 400 and the soft plate 112 are disengaged, thereby releasing the soft plate 112 and preventing the connector 111 from rebounding and deforming. Therefore, the embodiment of the present application can solve the problem that the connector 111 of the battery 100 is prone to rebound deformation after being inserted into the microneedle module.

[0039] Optionally, when the transporting mechanism transports the battery 100 to the connector 111 of the protective plate 110 and places it into the microneedle module, the pressure claw of the microneedle module presses on the connector 111 of the protective plate 110, thereby fixing the connector 111. Since the side pressure component 400 presses on the soft plate 112 of the protective plate 110, the side pressure component 400 is staggered from the pressure claw, which can avoid interference between the suction member 300 and the pressure claw of the microneedle module when the connector 111 of the battery 100 is placed into the microneedle module.

[0040] In an optional embodiment, the transport mechanism further includes a bracket 500 connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 200, and the suction member 300 and the side pressure assembly 400 are both connected to the bracket 500, so that the suction member 300 and the side pressure assembly 400 are connected to the output shaft of the first driving member 200 through the bracket 500, and the first driving member 200 can drive the suction member 300 and the side pressure assembly 400 to rise and fall together through the bracket 500, that is, the first driving member 200 can drive the suction member 300 and the side pressure assembly 400 to rise and fall together through the bracket 500. The side pressure assembly 400 is lifted and lowered in the Z-axis direction. The side pressure assembly 400 includes a second driving member 410 and a side pressure member 420. The second driving member 410 is connected to the bracket 500, and the side pressure member 420 is connected to the output shaft of the second driving member 410. The second driving member 410 can drive the side pressure member 420 to move along the X-direction. When the suction member 300 sucks the battery body 120, the second driving member 410 can drive the side pressure member 420 to approach the battery body 120 and press the soft board 112 so that the soft board 112 fits the circumferential surface of the battery body 120. In this solution, when the suction member 300 absorbs the battery body 120, it can absorb any position of the battery body 120. After the suction member 300 absorbs the battery body 120, the second driving member 410 drives the side pressure member 420 to approach the battery body 120 and press the soft board 112, so that the soft board 112 and the circumferential surface of the battery body 120 are in contact, thereby improving the working efficiency of the transport mechanism. In addition, the second driving member 410 drives the side pressure member 420 to approach the battery body 120 and press the soft board 112, which helps to improve the stability of the contact between the soft board 112 and the circumferential surface of the battery body 120. Of course, the second driving member 410 can also be omitted. In this case, the position where the suction member 300 absorbs the battery body is relatively fixed, and the suction position of the suction member 300 needs to be precisely controlled to ensure that the side pressure member 420 approaches the battery body 120 and presses the soft board 112, so that the soft board 112 and the circumferential surface of the battery body 120 are in contact.

[0041] Optionally, at least one of the first driving member 200 and the second driving member 410 may be a driving member such as a cylinder, a hydraulic cylinder, etc., and this embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific limitation on this.

[0042] In a further optional embodiment, the side pressure assembly 400 further includes a sliding member 430 and a guide post 440 that are slidably engaged. The first end of the guide post 440 is connected to the bracket 500, and the second end of the guide post 440 is provided with a limiting flange 441. The sliding member 430 can be limitedly engaged with the limiting flange 441 to prevent the sliding member 430 from slipping off the guide post 440. The side pressure member 420 is connected to the output shaft of the second driving member 410 via the sliding member 430, that is, the sliding member 430 is connected to the output shaft of the second driving member 410, and the side pressure member 420 is connected to the sliding member 430 so that the side pressure member 420 is connected to the output shaft of the second driving member 410 via the sliding member 430. The second driving member 410 can drive the sliding member 430 to slide relative to the guide post 440, so that the side pressure member 420 approaches the battery body 120. This solution establishes a connection between the side pressure member 420 and the bracket 500 by slidingly cooperating the sliding member 430 with the guide column 440, thereby ensuring that the side pressure member 420 can move flexibly, thereby improving the stability of the side pressure member 420.

[0043] Optionally, the guide column 440 includes a limiting flange 441 and a connecting section connected in sequence, the connecting section is connected to the bracket 500, and the cross-sectional area of ​​the limiting flange 441 is larger than the cross-sectional area of ​​the connecting section (the cross-sectional area here specifically refers to the cross-sectional area perpendicular to the length direction of the guide column 440), so that a limiting end face is formed at the connection between the limiting flange 441 and the connecting section, and the sliding member 430 can be limitedly matched with the limiting end face.

[0044] In a further optional embodiment, a receiving groove 431 is provided on a side of the sliding member 430 facing the limiting flange 441, and the side pressure assembly 400 also includes an elastic member 450, which is sleeved on the guide column 440, and the elastic member 450 is located in the receiving groove 431. The first end of the elastic member 450 abuts against the sliding member 430, and the second end of the elastic member 450 abuts against the limiting flange 441, that is, the second end of the elastic member 450 abuts against the limiting end face, and the sliding member 430 can be limitedly cooperated with the limiting flange 441 through the elastic member 450, and the second driving member 410 can drive the sliding member 430 to slide relative to the guide column 440 to cause the elastic member 450 to deform. When the flexible board 112 is in contact with the circumference of the battery body 120, the elastic member 450 abuts against the sliding member 430. At this time, the side pressure member 420 can be stably pressed against the flexible board 112, thereby improving the stability of the side pressure member 420. In addition, the elastic member 450 is disposed within the receiving groove 431 of the sliding member 430, which can avoid the elastic member 450 from occupying additional space. This makes the various structures of the side pressure assembly 400 more compact and occupies less space. Of course, the elastic member 450 can also be omitted.

[0045] Optionally, the connecting section includes a connected threaded section and a smooth section, the smooth section is connected between the threaded section and the limiting flange 441, and the guide column 440 is threadedly connected to the bracket 500 through the threaded section to facilitate the disassembly and assembly of the guide column 440, and the guide column 440 slides with the sliding member 430 through the smooth section; further optionally, the guide column 440 can be a bolt, a screw, etc., and the embodiment of the present application does not impose any specific restrictions on this.

[0046] In another optional embodiment, the side pressure assembly 400 further includes a support frame 460, a guide rail 470, and a slider 480. The support frame 460 is connected to the bracket 500, the second driving member 410 is disposed on the support frame 460, and the guide rail 470 is connected to the support frame 460. That is, the support frame 460 serves as a basic component for disposing the second driving member 410, the guide rail 470, and other structures. The slider 480 slidably cooperates with the guide rail 470, and the sliding member 430 is connected to the slider 480. The sliding direction of the slider 430 is parallel to the sliding direction of the slider 480, that is, the extension direction of the guide rail 470 is parallel to the extension direction of the guide post 440. In this case, the slider 480 and the slider 430 can slide synchronously. The sliding member 430 and the guide post 440 are slidably engaged to form a sliding assembly, and the slider 480 and the guide rail 470 are slidably engaged to form another sliding assembly. In this solution, two sliding assemblies are provided to ensure that the side pressure member 420 can slide flexibly, while improving the stability of the side pressure member 420 and the sliding member 430, and facilitating the installation of the second driving member 410. Of course, the guide rail 470 and the slider 480 can also be omitted.

[0047] In a further optional embodiment, the side pressure assembly 400 further includes a connecting block 491. The side of the sliding member 430 facing the limiting flange 441 is provided with a receiving groove 431. The connecting block 491 includes a first portion 491a and a second portion 491b connected to each other. The first portion 491a is sleeved on the guide column 440. The first portion 491a is located within the receiving groove 431 and is located on the side of the limiting flange 441 close to the bracket 500, thereby avoiding the first portion 491a from occupying additional space. The second portion 491b is connected to the support frame 460, so that the guide column 440 is connected to the support frame 460 through the connecting block 491, thereby improving the stability of the guide column 440.

When the soft plate 112 is attached to the peripheral surface of the battery body 120, the elastic member 450 abuts against the sliding member 430, at this time, the side pressing member 420 can be stably pressed on the soft plate 112, thereby further improving the stability of the side pressing member 420; in addition, the elastic member 450 is arranged in the accommodating groove 431 of the sliding member 430, which can avoid the elastic member 450 from occupying additional space, so that the structures of the side pressing assembly 400 are arranged more compactly.

[0049] Optionally, in the sliding direction of the sliding member 430, the cross-sectional area of the second part 491b is greater than that of the first part 491a, at this time, the connecting area between the connecting block 491 and the support frame 460 can be increased, so as to improve the connection firmness therebetween.

[0050] In the optional embodiment, the second part 491b and the guide rail 470 are arranged side by side along the sliding direction of the sliding block 480 (i.e. the X direction), the sliding block 480 can be limitedly matched with the second part 491b, when the sliding block 480 slides to the end of the guide rail 470, the second part 491b blocks the sliding block 480 from continuing to slide, thereby avoiding the sliding block 480 from sliding off the guide rail 470, at this time, the connecting block 491 can be used for both connecting the guide column 440 and the support frame 460 and limiting the sliding block 480, that is, the connecting block 491 has a dual-purpose effect.

[0051] Alternatively, in other optional embodiments, the side pressing assembly 400 further comprises a limiting plate 493, the limiting plate 493 is arranged on the support frame 460, the support frame 460 and the guide rail 470 are arranged side by side along the sliding direction of the sliding block 480 (i.e. the X direction), the sliding block 480 can be limitedly matched with the limiting plate 493, by additionally arranging the limiting plate 493 on the support frame 460, when the sliding block 480 slides to the end of the guide rail 470, the limiting plate 493 blocks the sliding block 480 from continuing to slide, thereby limiting the sliding block 480 and avoiding the sliding block 480 from sliding off the guide rail 470; and the limiting plate 493 and the connecting block 491 in this scheme are independent of each other and do not interfere with each other, which facilitates flexible arrangement of the two.
