[0030] Figures 1 to 3 An embodiment of the battery separation packaging equipment of this application is illustrated schematically.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 3As shown, this application discloses a battery separation and packaging device, including: a lateral movement assembly (not shown); a lifting assembly 1, which is mounted on the lateral movement assembly; and a clamping assembly 2, which is mounted on the lifting assembly 1 and includes a fixed clamping mechanism 21, a movable clamping mechanism 22, and a separation mechanism 23. Both the fixed clamping mechanism 21 and the movable clamping mechanism 22 are provided with independent grippers 27. The separation mechanism 23 is connected to the movable clamping mechanism 22 and can drive the movable clamping mechanism 22 to move relative to the fixed clamping mechanism 21.

[0032] Through the above structural design, the battery spacing packaging equipment of this application embodiment can utilize two sets of clamping mechanisms, a fixed clamping mechanism 21 and a movable clamping mechanism 22, to achieve simultaneous operation of two sets of grippers 27, packaging two sets of photovoltaic batteries at once, significantly improving production efficiency and accelerating the production cycle of the assembly line. Simultaneously, this application embodiment includes a spacing mechanism 23, which can adjust the distance between the two sets of clamping mechanisms, thereby addressing the problem of mismatched processing station spacing hindering the simultaneous transfer of two photovoltaic cells in preceding and following processes. It boasts high transfer efficiency, wide applicability, and convenient adjustment. For example, when the spacing between batteries in the preceding film coating process differs from the spacing between batteries in the subsequent boxing process, this application embodiment can solve the transfer problem caused by the mismatched battery station spacing between preceding and following processes when using dual fixed grippers, achieving accurate and rapid battery transfer packaging and improving production efficiency.

[0033] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the lifting assembly 1 includes a connecting back plate 11, a lifting cylinder 12, and a lifting plate 13. The lifting cylinder 12 is connected to the transverse moving assembly via the connecting back plate 11, and the transverse moving assembly drives the lifting assembly 1 to move horizontally, thereby grasping and transferring the photovoltaic battery. The lifting plate 13 is located on the movable end of the lifting cylinder 12 and is driven to rise and fall with the lifting cylinder 12. A reinforcing rib 14 is provided on one side below the lifting plate 13. The reinforcing rib 14 and the lifting plate 13 are connected to the clamping assembly 2 to realize the vertical Z-axis movement of the clamping assembly 2, thereby realizing the lifting and lowering of the gripper 27 of the clamping mechanism. Thus, the embodiment of this application forms a three-axis motion platform with vertical and horizontal axes, making the equipment flexible in use and meeting production needs.

[0034] In some embodiments of this application, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, the clamping assembly 2 comprises a mounting base plate 24, on which a linear guide rail 25 is arranged. The fixed clamping mechanism 21 is fixedly mounted on the mounting base plate 24 and is in a fixed position. The movable clamping mechanism 22 is slidably mounted on the mounting base plate 24 through the linear guide rail 25, so as to be able to slide along the linear guide rail 25 under the driving of the distance changing mechanism 23, so as to change the distance between the two groups of clamping jaws 27 of the fixed clamping mechanism 21 and the movable clamping mechanism 22, so as to adapt to different distances of the photovoltaic batteries in different processes, and realize accurate and simultaneous transfer of the two groups of photovoltaic batteries, and improve the production and packaging efficiency. In the embodiment of the present application, the fixed clamping mechanism 21 is arranged on the extension line of the linear guide rail 25, so that the movable clamping mechanism 22 and the fixed clamping mechanism 21 are kept in the same straight line, so as to directly match the battery packaging assembly line, and transfer the adjacent two batteries on the assembly line at one time. Different distances between adjacent batteries in different processes on the assembly line are matched by the sliding of the movable clamping mechanism 22 on the linear guide rail 25.

[0035] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1 The distance changing mechanism 23 comprises a cylinder mounting plate 231 and a distance changing cylinder 232. The cylinder mounting plate 231 is mounted on the horizontal side of the mounting base plate 24 and is arranged in parallel with the linear guide rail 25. The distance changing cylinder 232 is mounted on the cylinder mounting plate 231 and is connected with the movable clamping mechanism 22. In the embodiment, the cylinder mounting plate 231 is arranged on the horizontal side of the mounting base plate 24, so that the space can be effectively utilized, and the mounting position of the linear guide rail 25 at the bottom of the mounting base plate 24 is left, which is convenient for equipment assembly.

The in-place sensing sensors 233 can confirm the position of the distance changing cylinder 232, and through the gas supply controller connected to the distance changing cylinder 232, the position of the distance changing cylinder 232 can be accurately controlled. In the embodiment of the present application, one fixed clamping mechanism 21 and one movable clamping mechanism 22 are arranged, and the movable clamping mechanism 22 only needs to determine two relative positions relative to the fixed clamping mechanism 21, i.e. a first position for clamping the photovoltaic battery in the film covering process and a second position for lowering the photovoltaic battery in the box packaging process, so that the clamping mechanism only needs to be provided with two groups of in-place sensing sensors 233. In some other embodiments of the present application, if more process stations need to be matched, more in-place sensing sensors 233 can be arranged to realize multi-point positioning control.

[0037] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the in-position sensing sensor 233 is a photoelectric sensing sensor, which is provided with an opposite photoelectric transceiver frame, and the moving path of the positioning baffle 234 passes through the photoelectric transceiver frame, and the in-position detection is realized by shielding.

[0038] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the mounting base 24 is further provided with distance separation stop blocks 251, which are arranged in two groups and separate the two ends of the linear guide rail 25. The distance separation stop blocks 251 are used to form limiting ends at the two ends of the moving clamping mechanism 22, so as to limit the movement range of the moving clamping mechanism 22 and protect the safety of the equipment.

[0039] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figure 2 As shown, the distance separation mechanism 23 further comprises a distance separation connecting plate 235, which is a right-angle type and surrounds the bottom surface and one side surface of the distance separation cylinder 232. The distance separation connecting plate 235 is used to surround and protect the distance separation cylinder 232 on one hand, so as to avoid accidental contact and damage of the distance separation cylinder 232 during lifting, and is used to realize the connection between the distance separation cylinder 232 and the moving clamping mechanism 22 on the other hand. Figure 2 As shown in the embodiment of the present application, the distance separation connecting plate 235 is formed by splicing two blocks of side surface and bottom surface, the side surface of the distance separation connecting plate 235 is connected with the distance separation cylinder 232, and the bottom surface is connected with the moving clamping mechanism 22, so that the moving clamping mechanism 22 moves with the distance separation cylinder 232, and the jaw separation adjustment of the moving clamping mechanism 22 and the fixed clamping mechanism 21 is realized.

[0040] In some embodiments of the present application, as shown in Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the fixed clamping mechanism 21 and the moving clamping mechanism 22 each comprise a clamping cylinder 26 and a jaw 27, the clamping cylinder 26 is connected with the jaw 27 and is used to drive the jaw 27 to open and close. In the embodiment of the present application, the jaw 27 is a pair of opposed square jaws 27, and a buffer anti-skid pad 271, such as a rubber pad, is arranged on the inner side of the square jaw 27, so that the square battery can be reliably clamped and placed, and the battery will not be damaged. The jaw 27 is divided into two opposed jaw bodies, and the clamping cylinder 26 drives the relative movement of the two jaw bodies to realize the battery grabbing or releasing.

[0041] In some embodiments of the present application, the fixed clamping mechanism 21 and the moving clamping mechanism 22 further comprise a slide rail structure on which the jaw 27 is slidably arranged. As shown in Figure 3 The clamping cylinder is connected with the jaw 27 through a connecting block 28, and the slide rail structure is arranged on the connecting block 28 to slidably arrange the two jaw bodies of the jaw 27.

[0042] In some embodiments of the present application, it can be understood that each cylinder is provided with a separate air guide pipe to realize pneumatic driving control, and the position can be arranged according to the space gap, which will not be described here.

[0043] In combination Figures 1 to 3 The working principle of the embodiment of the application is illustrated in the following.

[0044] The horizontal movement of the horizontal movement assembly can realize the horizontal movement of the battery spacing packaging device, and the horizontal movement assembly can move back and forth between the film covering part and the packaging part. In the film covering part, the Z-axis lifting cylinder 12 is extended, the clamping assembly 2 is lowered, and the two sets of clamping jaws 27 clamp the photovoltaic battery. After the clamping action is completed, the Z-axis lifting cylinder 12 is retracted, the clamping assembly 3 is turned to the packaging part under the operation of the horizontal movement assembly, and then the spacing cylinder 232 is extended to drive the moving clamping mechanism 22 to separate from the fixed clamping mechanism 21. Then the lifting cylinder 12 is extended, and the two sets of clamping jaws 27 carry the battery into the iron shell. After the loading action is completed, each cylinder and the horizontal movement assembly are reset, and the work is recycled. The embodiment of the application is mainly aimed at the process of efficiently loading the battery into the iron shell after the square battery is processed and covered with a film. The clamping assembly 2 adopts variable-distance clamping jaws 27, which solves the problem of mismatching of the spacing of the battery between the film covering part and the packaging part, and can package two batteries at a time, thereby improving the beat of the whole machine device, improving the operation efficiency and reducing the cost.
