Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery recycling technology, specifically a sorting device for recycling waste batteries. Background Technology

[0002] Used batteries are batteries that have been used and then discarded. Used batteries have a huge impact on the environment. In the field of waste battery management, with the continuous development of the battery industry, the treatment methods and technologies required for different types and specifications of waste batteries have also been developed accordingly. There are many types of batteries, and recycling them according to their classification can be more environmentally friendly.

[0003] CN220590801U discloses a sorting device for waste battery recycling, which solves the problem that existing sorting devices cannot continuously transport waste batteries. It includes a V-shaped sorting shell, a hopper at one end of the top of the V-shaped sorting shell, an L-shaped support arm at the other end of the top of the V-shaped sorting shell, a sorting camera at one end of the bottom of the L-shaped support arm, a support plate at one end of the V-shaped sorting shell, a controller on one side of the support plate, several support legs at one end of the bottom of the V-shaped sorting shell, a support frame between the support legs, a sorting and unloading mechanism at the top of the support frame, several battery collection boxes at the bottom of one side of the sorting and unloading mechanism, a strip groove at the bottom of the V-shaped sorting shell, and a continuous battery conveying mechanism at the bottom of the V-shaped sorting shell. This sorting device enables continuous transport of waste batteries, effectively improving sorting efficiency.

[0004] This patent uses a camera to determine the size of the battery, and then sorts them by rotating the feeding tube into different collection boxes during the descent.

The receiving box inlet 20 is respectively located directly below one end of the first conveyor belt 4 and the second conveyor belt 5 to prevent the battery from falling to the ground.

[0043] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, a feeding component is provided on the upper surface of the first sorting table 2.

[0044] In one embodiment, such as Figure 1 As shown, the unloading assembly includes an unloading base 19, and several unloading bases 19 are provided, with their lower ends fixedly connected to one side of the upper surface of the first sorting table 2. An unloading pipe 11 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the unloading base 19, and unsorted batteries fall onto the top of the first conveyor belt 4 through the unloading pipe 11.

[0045] The above embodiment discloses a sorting device for recycling waste batteries. Unsorted batteries fall onto the first conveyor belt 4 through the feeding pipe 11. Then, the rotary motor 15 is started.

Subsequently, the No. 5 and No. 7 batteries that have been sorted from the first sorting trough 9 fall onto the second conveyor belt 5 through the lower end of the first transfer chamber 6. They are then filtered again by the second sorting trough 10. The No. 7 batteries that are filtered out are collected by the second receiving box 14 through the second transfer chamber 8.
