Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of storage battery production equipment, and in particular relates to a multi-directional cleaning device for storage batteries. Background Technology

[0002] During the battery manufacturing process, some acid, lead powder and other raw materials inevitably adhere to the surface of the battery. Also, during the battery recycling process, it is necessary to clean the battery.

[0003] For example, Chinese invention CN115971116A discloses a battery spray cleaning and drying device, which cleans the battery by conveying it and cleaning the outer wall of the battery by two brush wheels of the first cleaning mechanism and the second cleaning mechanism, thereby completing the cleaning of the four sides of the battery.

[0004] However, in existing cleaning devices, the brush wheel can only clean the outer wall of the battery box by rotating during the cleaning process. When there are stubborn stains stuck to the outer wall of the battery box, it is often impossible to clean them completely, resulting in poor overall cleaning effect and efficiency. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a multi-directional cleaning device for storage batteries. The device drives the roller brush to rotate through the drive shaft and spline sleeve, and uses the eccentric shaft and pull rod to drive the roller brush to reciprocate axially, thereby achieving multi-directional cleaning of the outer wall of the storage battery box and solving the problems of poor cleaning effect and efficiency in existing devices.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model relates to a multi-directional cleaning device for storage batteries, comprising a conveyor line, a spraying mechanism and a cleaning mechanism arranged sequentially along the conveyor line. The cleaning mechanism includes a mounting frame spanning the conveyor line, with two L-shaped mounting seats connected to the mounting frame. A horizontally arranged drive shaft and an eccentric shaft are rotatably connected to the L-shaped mounting seats, and a spline sleeve is rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the L-shaped mounting seats. A drive device is driven by the drive shaft and the eccentric shaft. A drive wheel is fixedly connected to the drive shaft, and a rotating sleeve is rotatably connected to the eccentric shaft. A pull rod is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating sleeve. A driven wheel meshing with the drive wheel is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the spline sleeve, and a spline shaft is fitted onto the spline sleeve. The upper end of the spline shaft is hinged to the pull rod, and a roller brush is fixedly connected to the lower end. The roller brush is driven to rotate via the drive shaft and spline sleeve, and the eccentric shaft rotation, in turn, drives the roller brush to reciprocate axially via the pull rod.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the transmission shaft and the eccentric shaft are connected by transmission, and the transmission shaft or the eccentric shaft is connected by transmission to the drive device, so as to synchronously drive the transmission shaft and the eccentric shaft to rotate through the drive device.

[0009] As a preferred embodiment of this invention, the transmission ratio between the driving wheel and the driven wheel is less than 1.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, there are two conveyor lines, which are connected by a conveyor roller, and the width of the conveyor roller is less than or equal to the width of the battery; the roller brush of the cleaning mechanism is located at the position of the conveyor roller to avoid interference from the conveyor lines and to increase the axial travel of the roller brush.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment of this invention, the length of the roller brush is greater than the height of the battery.

[0012] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, both L-shaped mounting seats are movably connected to the mounting frame, which facilitates the adjustment of the position of the roller brush by adjusting the position of the L-shaped mounting seats.

[0013] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the mounting bracket is rotatably connected to a horizontally arranged lead screw, and the L-shaped mounting base is fixedly connected to a nut that cooperates with the lead screw, so as to realize the synchronous movement of the two L-shaped mounting bases towards each other or backward movement by rotating the lead screw.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] This invention features a horizontally mounted drive shaft and an eccentric shaft rotatably connected to an L-shaped mounting base, with a spline sleeve rotatably connected to the bottom wall of the L-shaped mounting base. The drive shaft and spline sleeve drive the roller brush to rotate, while the eccentric shaft and pull rod drive the roller brush to reciprocate axially. This allows the roller brush to perform both circular rotation and axial reciprocating movement, thereby cleaning the outer wall of the battery box in multiple directions and effectively improving the overall cleaning effect and efficiency.

[0016] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

Detailed Implementation

[0025] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0026] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0027] Please see Figure 1 and 2 As shown, this utility model is a multi-directional cleaning device for storage batteries, including a conveyor line 1, a spraying mechanism and a cleaning mechanism 2 arranged sequentially along the conveying direction of the conveyor line 1. The spraying mechanism is not shown in the figure and can adopt the existing technical solutions in the background art.

[0028] like Figure 3 and 4As shown, the cleaning mechanism 2 includes a mounting frame 201 spanning the conveyor line 1. The mounting frame 201 is connected to two L-shaped mounting seats 202, which are symmetrically arranged relative to the conveyor line 1. A horizontally arranged drive shaft 3 and an eccentric shaft 4 are rotatably connected to each L-shaped mounting seat 202. A support plate can be welded or screwed onto the L-shaped mounting seat 202. The support plate is rotatably connected to the drive shaft 3 and the eccentric shaft 4 via bearings or bearing seats. A mounting hole is provided on the bottom wall of the L-shaped mounting seat 202, and a splined sleeve 5 is rotatably connected to the mounting hole via a bearing.

[0029] The drive shaft 3 and the eccentric shaft 4 are connected by a drive device 6. Preferably, the drive shaft 3 and the eccentric shaft 4 are connected, and the drive shaft 3 or the eccentric shaft 4 is also connected to the drive device 6, so as to synchronously drive the drive shaft 3 and the eccentric shaft 4 to rotate. For example, sprockets or synchronous pulleys are installed on the drive shaft 3 and the eccentric shaft 4, and they are rotatably connected by a chain or synchronous belt. The drive shaft 3 and the drive device 6 are connected by belt drive or chain drive, so that the drive device 6 drives the drive shaft 3 to rotate, and then the drive shaft 3 drives the eccentric shaft 4 to rotate, so as to achieve synchronous rotation of the drive shaft 3 and the eccentric shaft 4, and only one drive device 6 is needed to drive them.

[0030] like Figure 5 As shown, the drive shaft 3 is fixedly connected to the drive wheel 301, and the eccentric shaft 4 is rotatably connected to the rotating sleeve 401 via a bearing. A tie rod 402 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the rotating sleeve 401. A driven wheel 501 that meshes with the drive wheel 301 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the spline sleeve 5. The transmission ratio between the drive wheel 301 and the driven wheel 501 is less than 1, which allows the driven wheel 501 to obtain a higher speed.

[0031] Furthermore, the spline sleeve 5 is fitted with a spline shaft 502. The upper end of the spline shaft 502 is hinged to the pull rod 402, and the lower end is fixedly connected to a roller brush 503. The two roller brushes 503 are symmetrically arranged relative to the conveyor line 1. Through the meshing transmission of the drive wheel 301 of the drive shaft 3 and the driven wheel 501 of the spline sleeve 5, the spline sleeve 5 drives the spline shaft 502 to rotate, which in turn drives the roller brush 503 to rotate. Thus, the circumferential rotation of the roller brush 503 cleans the outer wall of the battery box 7.

[0032] Furthermore, the drive shaft 3 drives the eccentric shaft 4 to rotate. The rotation of the eccentric shaft 4 causes the rotating sleeve 401 to shift radially, thereby using the pull rod 402 to pull the spline shaft 502 to move axially. This, in turn, drives the roller brush 503 to reciprocate axially. As a result, the roller brush 503 produces a composite motion of circumferential rotation and axial reciprocating motion, achieving multi-directional cleaning of the outer wall of the battery box 7, which greatly improves the overall cleaning effect and cleaning efficiency.

[0033] like Figure 2As shown, as a further optimization of the scheme, there are two conveyor lines 1, and the connection point between the two conveyor lines 1 is transitioned by a conveyor roller, and the width of the conveyor roller is less than or equal to the width of the battery. The roller brush 503 of the cleaning mechanism 2 is located at the position of the conveyor roller to avoid interference of the roller brush 503 with the conveyor line 1, and to increase the axial movement stroke of the roller brush 503. At the same time, the length of the roller brush 503 is greater than the height of the battery, so that the axial position of the roller brush 503 always covers the entire battery box 7 during the axial reciprocating movement. That is, when the roller brush 503 rises to the highest point, the lower end of the roller brush 503 is lower than or flush with the lower surface of the battery box 7.

[0034] When the roller brush 503 descends to its lowest point, the upper end of the roller brush 503 is higher than or flush with the upper surface of the battery box 7, so that the battery box 7 will not have any missed areas during the movement, thereby further ensuring the cleaning effect.

[0035] Example 2

[0036] like Figure 3 and 4 As shown, based on Embodiment 1, both L-shaped mounting bases 202 are movably connected to the mounting bracket 201 via a guide rail slider assembly, which facilitates adjusting the position of the roller brush 503 by adjusting the position of the L-shaped mounting base 202, thereby enabling the two roller brushes 503 to better fit against the outer wall of the battery box 7.

[0037] Meanwhile, the mounting bracket 201 is rotatably connected to a horizontally arranged lead screw 203 via a bearing seat. The helical directions at both ends of the lead screw 203 can be set to opposite directions, and a crank is installed at one end of the lead screw 203. Furthermore, an L-shaped mounting base 202 is fixedly connected to a nut that mates with the lead screw 203, which is used to enable the two L-shaped mounting bases 202 to move synchronously towards each other or backwards by rotating the lead screw 203.

[0038] When the battery width is small or the cleaning effect of the roller brush 503 decreases due to wear, the screw 203 is rotated to move the two L-shaped mounting seats 202 toward each other, thereby reducing the distance between the two roller brushes 503 and making them fit against the outer wall of the battery box. When the battery width is large, the screw 203 is rotated in the opposite direction to move the two L-shaped mounting seats 202 away from each other, increasing the distance between the two roller brushes 503, thereby improving the overall adaptability and flexibility of use.

[0040] The preferred embodiments of this utility model disclosed above are merely illustrative of the present utility model. These preferred embodiments do not exhaustively describe all details, nor do they limit the utility model to the specific implementations described. Clearly, many modifications and variations can be made based on the content of this specification.
