Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of electrode guide unit technology, and more specifically to an electrode guide unit for an electrode feeding mechanism. Background Technology

[0002] The electrode feeding mechanism of the battery die-making machine includes an electrode guiding unit and an electrode pressing unit. The electrode guiding unit includes two electrode guiding blocks, and the gap between the electrode guiding blocks forms an electrode guiding groove. The width of the electrode guiding groove is adjustable to suit different electrode widths. During use, the electrodes are conveyed through the electrode guiding groove, thereby maintaining the stability of the electrodes.

[0003] However, because the electrode tabs are spaced apart with black adhesive, when the electrode tabs move between two electrode tab guide blocks, the black adhesive will collide with the electrode tab guide groove and easily lift up, resulting in uneven electrode tabs, which seriously affects the subsequent processing of electrode tabs. Based on this, this utility model provides an electrode tab guide unit for an electrode tab feeding mechanism that can improve the flatness of electrode tab conveying. Utility Model Content

[0004] In order to overcome the above-mentioned defects of the prior art, the present invention provides an electrode guide unit for an electrode feeding mechanism. By setting square grooves on both electrode guide blocks, square grooves are provided to guide the electrode to move smoothly. At the same time, the distance between the two electrode guide blocks is adjusted by two pneumatic slide rails, thereby changing the width of the two square grooves and making it possible to accommodate electrode widths of different widths, so as to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution: an electrode guide unit for an electrode feeding mechanism, comprising two electrode guide blocks installed on the top of the electrode feeding mechanism, an electrode guide groove for guiding electrode feeding is formed between the two electrode guide blocks, and a square groove for guiding the electrode is provided on the surface of the two electrode guide blocks that are close to each other.

[0006] In a preferred embodiment, a rectangular opening is provided at the top of each of the two electrode guide blocks, and a rectangular slider passes through the rectangular opening. Multiple semi-circular grooves are provided at the bottom of the rectangular sliders, and a rubber pressure roller is rotatably connected inside each semi-circular groove. The multiple rubber pressure rollers limit the electrode tabs, thereby preventing the electrode tabs and the black adhesive on the electrode tabs from lifting. Both rectangular sliders are provided with an adjustment mechanism to adjust the height of the rubber pressure rollers.

[0007] Both electrode guide blocks are fixed with pneumatic slide rails at their bottom ends. Both pneumatic slide rails are fixed on the electrode feeding mechanism. The pneumatic slide rails drive the electrode guide blocks to move, thereby realizing the automatic adjustment of the electrode guide groove spacing.

[0008] In a preferred embodiment, the two electrode guide blocks are provided with storage slots on both the front and rear sides, and a connecting slot is provided between the storage slots and the rectangular opening to facilitate the worker to adjust the height of the rectangular slider.

[0009] In a preferred embodiment, the adjustment mechanism includes two threaded rods, which are respectively fixed to the front and rear ends of the rectangular slider. The end of the threaded rod away from the rectangular slider passes through the connecting groove and extends into the receiving groove. A nut is threaded onto the threaded rod, and the nut contacts the inner wall of the receiving groove. The nut and the threaded rod are used to cooperate, which makes it convenient for the operator to adjust the height of the rectangular slider.

[0010] In a preferred embodiment, multiple semi-circular grooves are arranged in a linear array at the bottom of the rectangular slider, and multiple rubber pressure rollers are provided to effectively prevent the tabs and the black adhesive on the tabs from lifting.

[0011] In a preferred embodiment, each of the two rectangular sliders has a mounting groove at its top. A level and a pull ring are fixedly installed inside each mounting groove. Two pull rings are provided, one in front of the level and the other behind the level. The operator can use the level to ensure that the rectangular sliders are kept horizontal so as not to affect the limiting effect of the electrode tabs. At the same time, the pull rings make it easy for the operator to adjust the height of the rectangular sliders.

[0012] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows: By setting square grooves on both electrode guide blocks to guide the electrode to move smoothly, and by using two pneumatic slide rails to adjust the distance between the two electrode guide blocks, the width of the two square grooves can be changed, thereby making it possible to accommodate electrode blocks of different widths.

[0020] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0021] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-5 This utility model provides an electrode guide unit for an electrode feeding mechanism, including two electrode guide blocks 2 installed on the top of the electrode feeding mechanism 1, and pneumatic slide rails 15 are fixedly provided at the bottom of the two electrode guide blocks 2. The two pneumatic slide rails 15 are fixed on the electrode feeding mechanism 1. Specifically, the pneumatic slide rail 15 is a sliding device driven by air pressure. When compressed air enters the cylinder, the piston in the cylinder is subjected to air pressure and generates thrust. The thrust is transmitted to the slider through the piston rod, so that the slider moves on the slide rail and can drive the electrode guide blocks 2 to move, thereby realizing the automatic adjustment of the spacing of the electrode guide grooves 3, which is more time-saving and labor-saving to use.

[0022] Next, an electrode guide groove 3 for guiding electrode delivery is formed between the two electrode guide blocks 2, and a square groove 4 for guiding the electrode is opened on the surface of the two electrode guide blocks 2 that are close to each other.

[0023] Furthermore, a rectangular opening 5 is provided at the top of each of the two electrode guide blocks 2. A rectangular slider 6 passes through the rectangular opening 5. A plurality of semi-circular grooves 7 are provided at the bottom of the rectangular slider 6. A rubber pressure roller 8 is rotatably connected inside each semi-circular groove 7. The plurality of semi-circular grooves 7 are arranged in a linear array at the bottom of the rectangular slider 6. The provision of multiple rubber pressure rollers 8 effectively prevents the electrode tabs and the black adhesive on the electrode tabs from lifting.

[0024] In use, first install the two electrode guide blocks 2 onto the two pneumatic slide rails 15 respectively, and then install the two pneumatic slide rails 15 onto the electrode feeding mechanism 1. The two electrode guide blocks 2 and the electrode feeding mechanism 1 form an electrode guide groove 3. At the same time, square grooves 4 are set on the side of the two electrode guide blocks 2 that are close to each other, and a flat groove is formed between the two square grooves 4. This is used to guide the electrode through and prevent the electrode black glue from lifting up during the conveying process, which would affect subsequent processing. The two pneumatic slide rails 15 drive the two electrode guide blocks 2 to move, thereby adjusting the distance between the two electrode guide blocks 2. At the same time, the distance between the two square grooves 4 can also be adjusted to accommodate electrode ears of different widths. Multiple rubber pressure rollers 8 in the square grooves 4 press on the electrode ears, which can limit the lifting of the electrode black glue on the electrode ears. Since the rubber pressure rollers 8 can roll in the semi-circular grooves 7, the friction between them and the electrode ears can be reduced.

[0025] Refer to the instruction manual appendix Figure 1-5 Each of the two rectangular sliders 6 is equipped with an adjustment mechanism 9 for adjusting the height of the rubber pressure rollers 8. Each of the two pole guide blocks 2 has a storage groove 10 on both its front and rear sides. A connecting groove 11 is provided between the storage groove 10 and the rectangular opening 5. The adjustment mechanism 9 includes two threaded rods 901, which are respectively fixed to the front and rear ends of the rectangular sliders 6. The end of the threaded rod 901 away from the rectangular slider 6 passes through the connecting groove 11 and extends into the storage groove 10. A nut 902 is threaded onto the threaded rod 901, and the nut 902 contacts the inner wall of the storage groove 10. The nut 902 and the threaded rod 901 are used to facilitate the adjustment of the height of the rectangular sliders 6 by the operator.

[0026] Both rectangular sliders 6 have mounting slots 12 at their top ends, and a level 13 is fixedly installed inside each mounting slot 12. Two pull rings 14 are provided, one in front of the level 13 and the other behind it. Specifically, the level 13 is a commonly used measuring tool for small angles. It utilizes the principle that the surface of a liquid always remains horizontal. When the level 13 is placed on the rectangular slider 6, if the rectangular slider 6 is horizontal, the bubble in the level tube will be centered. If the plane is not horizontal, the bubble will deviate from the center. By observing the position of the bubble, the tilt direction and angle of the rectangular slider 6 can be determined. The pull rings 14 also facilitate the adjustment of the height of the rectangular slider 6 by the operator.

[0027] By loosening the nuts 902 on the two threaded rods 901, the operator can press and pull the rectangular slider 6 and the rubber pressure roller 8 up and down as needed, and then tighten the nuts 902 to fix the rectangular slider 6. This makes it easy to adjust the height of the rubber pressure roller 8, thus adapting to the electrode tabs of different thicknesses. A level 13 is also installed on the rectangular slider 6, which allows the operator to maintain the levelness of the rectangular slider 6.

[0028] Finally: The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
