Abstract
Description
Technical Field

However, this method results in a large amount of residual electrolyte in the battery casing, and the separation is quite difficult. Alternatively, manual removal can be used, which is inefficient and can easily lead to explosions and high temperatures in the waste batteries during the removal process, reducing the safety of the removal process.

[0026] Please see Figure 2 and Figure 4 The rotary clamping mechanism 6 includes a first servo motor 61 fixedly connected to the top of the inner wall on the right side of the work box 1. A lead screw 69 is fixedly connected to the output end of the first servo motor 61. Two movable blocks 68 are symmetrically connected to the lead screw 69 by ball nuts. The left end of the lead screw 69 is rotatably connected to the top of the inner wall on the left side of the work box 1. A second clamping arm 67 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable block 68 on the right side.

A first clamping arm 64 is fixedly connected to the bottom of the movable block 68 on the left side. A second clamping block 65 is fixedly connected to the output end of the second servo motor 66.

The guide rod 62 is fixedly installed inside the top of the work box 1.
[0027] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 The cutting and peeling mechanism 7 includes a first electric slide rail 71 fixedly connected to the bottom surface inside the work box 1, a second slider 79 slidably connected to the first electric slide rail 71, a second electric slide rail 77 fixedly connected to the top of the second slider 79, a first slider 78 slidably connected to the second electric slide rail 77, and the first electric slide rail 71 and the second electric slide rail 77 are distributed perpendicularly at a 90-degree angle.
[0028] Please see Figure 3 and Figure 5 A hydraulic cylinder 76 is fixedly connected to the top center of the first slider 78. A fixed plate 75 is fixedly connected to the top of the output end of the hydraulic cylinder 76. A cutting machine 73 is fixedly connected to the top left side of the fixed plate 75. A cutting blade 74 is fixedly installed on the top of the output end of the cutting machine 73. A peeling arm 18 is fixedly connected to the top right side of the fixed plate 75. A guide plate 72 is fixedly connected to the top rear side of the fixed plate 75. A fixed arm 16 is fixedly connected to the top center of the fixed plate 75. A fixed ring 17 is fixedly connected to the top end of the fixed arm 16. A nozzle 12 is fixedly inserted through the center of the fixed ring 17.

[0029] It should be noted that, when using this waste battery recycling shell stripping device, first open the box door, then place the battery to be cut between clamping block 60 and clamping block 65. Then, start servo motor 61. The output of servo motor 61 drives screw 69 to rotate, which in turn drives two movable blocks 68 to move synchronously towards the center. Subsequently, movable blocks 68 and clamping arm 64 move towards the center, synchronously driving clamping blocks 60 and 65 to move towards the center, thus clamping and fixing the battery. Then, start water pump 13 to spray coolant from circulating water tank 2 onto the waste battery through nozzle 12 to prevent explosion during cutting. Then, using the cooperation of electric slide rail 71, slider 79, electric slide rail 77, and slider 78, hydraulic cylinder 76 is moved to the designated position. Then, start hydraulic cylinder 76, whose output drives the fixing plate. 75 and the cutting machine 73 on it are moved to the designated height, and then the cutting machine 73 is started. The cutting blade 74 rotates at high speed to cut the waste battery. At this time, driven by the first electric slide rail 71, the cutting blade 74 moves laterally in the left and right directions to cut the waste battery. As it moves laterally, the cutting blade 74 completely detaches from the waste battery, while the peeling arm 18 is still inserted in the cut of the battery. At this time, the second servo motor 66 is started. The output end of the second servo motor 66 drives the second clamping block 65 to rotate, thereby driving the waste battery to rotate. Thus, the peeling arm 18 is used to automatically peel off the battery shell. The coolant is filtered through the filter screen 11, the quartz sand layer 10, the carbon black layer 9 and the activated carbon layer 8 and then flows back to the circulating water tank 2 through the connecting pipe 14, realizing the recycling of coolant and reducing resource waste. The filtered residue flows down from the inclined filter screen 11 and is discharged from the slag discharge port 15.

It should be noted that those skilled in the art can make various modifications and improvements without departing from the concept of this utility model, and these modifications and improvements all fall within the protection scope of this utility model.
