[0029] Embodiment 1

[0030] Referring to Figures 2-5 A variable-distance battery clamping mechanism, comprising a frame body 1, one end of the frame body 1 is slidably connected with a sliding block 102, the sliding block 102 can only slide on the frame body 1; the end of the frame body 1 away from the sliding block 102 and the sliding block 102 are both fixedly connected with a concave frame 2; the concave frame 2 is connected with a clamping jaw cylinder 202 at the bottom, and the two output ends of the clamping jaw cylinder 202 are both fixedly connected with a clamping plate 203.

[0031] When the battery needs to be clamped, the frame body 1 is driven to move by the mechanical arm, and is moved to the position where the battery needs to be clamped, specifically, the two clamping plates 203 are located on both sides of the battery, and then the clamping jaw cylinder 202 is started to move the two clamping plates 203 at the output end to the direction of the battery to clamp the battery.

[0032] Since the end of the frame body 1 away from the sliding block 102 and the sliding block 102 are both provided with the clamping jaw cylinder 202, when the battery is clamped, two batteries can be clamped at one time, thereby improving the conveying efficiency.

[0033] The two groups of clamping jaw cylinders 202, since one group is installed on the sliding block 102, when the model of the battery changes and the distance between the two groups of batteries on the production line changes, at this time, the sliding block 102 can be slid to make one group of clamping jaw cylinders 202 translate, thereby achieving the purpose of adjusting the distance between the two groups of clamping jaw cylinders 202, so as to realize the grabbing of batteries with different distances.

[0034] As Figure 3 And Figure 4 One end of the frame body 1 is fixedly connected with a guide plate 101, and the sliding block 102 is clamped on the guide plate 101 to slide.

[0035] The sliding block 102 can only slide along the guide plate 101, thereby improving the sliding stability.

[0036] As Figure 2 And Figure 3 The frame body 1 is fixedly connected with a push air cylinder 103, and the output end of the push air cylinder 103 is fixedly connected with the sliding block 102.

[0037] The output end of the push air cylinder 103 can also be fixedly connected with the concave frame 2 fixed on the sliding block 102.

[0038] When it is necessary to adjust the distance between the two groups of clamping jaw air cylinders 202, the push air cylinder 103 is started to push the sliding block 102 to slide, thereby achieving the purpose of automatically adjusting the distance.

[0039] As Figure 3 The frame body 1 is fixedly connected with two groups of limiting plates 5, and the two groups of limiting plates 5 are respectively located at the two ends of the guide plate 101.

[0040] Through the two groups of limiting plates 5, the sliding block 102 can be effectively prevented from being accidentally separated from the guide plate 101 when sliding on the guide plate 101, thereby improving the stability during the distance adjustment.

[0041] The frame body 1 is fixedly connected with a connecting block 104.

[0042] The mechanical arm is fixedly connected with the connecting block 104, and drives the frame body 1 to move.

[0043] Embodiment 2

[0044] Referring to Figures 1-5 , which is basically the same as embodiment 1, on the basis of embodiment 1, the overall technical scheme is further refined.

[0045] As Figure 1 The battery clamping mechanism disclosed in this embodiment 2 is specially designed for the battery 6 shown in Figure 1 , and can only clamp the edge of the battery 6, that is, the position of the edge sheet 601, because the battery 6 is in the form of a sheet and cannot be directly clamped on the battery 6 itself, which is easy to damage the battery.

[0046] The shape of the battery 6 is sheet-shaped, so before being clamped, in the state on the production line, in order to save space, it is generally placed in an upright state by a jig or a storage box; and the battery clamping mechanism disclosed in the embodiment is specially designed for clamping the battery 6 in the upright state.

[0047] As Figures 2-5 One of the clamping plates 203 is fixedly connected with a suction frame 3, and the suction frame 3 is fixedly connected with a suction disc 301 on the side close to the clamping plate 203, and the suction disc 301 is located below the clamping plate 203.

[0048] The suction surface of the suction disc 301 and the clamping surface of the clamping plate 203 on the same side are in the same plane and are flush vertically.

[0049] When the clamping plate 203 clamps the edge sheet 601 of the battery 6, at this time, the suction disc 301 is attached to the side wall of the battery 6, and the side wall of the battery 6 is adsorbed by the suction disc 301, which improves the stability during grabbing and prevents the battery 6 from falling off accidentally during grabbing.

[0050] As Figure 5 One of the clamping plates 203 is fixedly connected with a connecting plate 302, and the connecting plate 302 is provided with an adjusting slot hole 303 in a strip shape; and the suction frame 3 is fixed on the connecting plate 302 through the adjusting slot hole 303.

[0051] The suction frame 3 is fixed on the connecting plate 302 through a bolt, and the bolt penetrates the adjusting slot hole 303.

[0052] When the suction disc 301 is loosened after a long time of clamping, and cannot be attached to the side wall of the battery 6 during clamping, the bolt can be loosened, the position of the suction frame 3 is adjusted through the adjusting slot hole 303, and then the bolt is fixed, so that the suction disc 301 is stably adsorbed to the side wall of the battery 6 during clamping.

[0053] As Figure 3 And Figure 4 The recessed frame 2 is slidingly connected with a clamping frame 201, the top of the clamping frame 201 is also clamped in the recessed frame 2, and can only slide along the inner wall of the recessed frame 2; and the clamping jaw cylinder 202 is fixed at the bottom of the clamping frame 201.

[0054] When the mechanical arm drives the frame body 1 to move and clamp the battery 6, if the frame body 1 continues to move downward after the clamping plate 203 contacts the edge sheet 601, at this time, the sliding connection of the clamping frame 201 and the recessed frame 2 can effectively prevent the clamping plate 203 from pressing the battery 6.

[0055] As Figures 2-4 The top of the clamping frame 201 is fixedly connected with a guide column 4, and the guide column 4 penetrates the top of the recessed frame 2; and the guide column 4 is slidingly connected with the top of the recessed frame 2.

[0056] Two guide columns 4 are fixed on the top of each card holder 201.

[0057] When the card holder 201 slides in the concave holder 2, the guide columns 4 slide on the top of the concave holder 2 synchronously.

[0058] The guide columns 4 are in the shape of "T", and when the card holder 201 is at the lowest position, the top of the guide column 4 in the shape of "T" with the larger diameter is in close contact with the top of the concave holder 2.

[0059] The guide columns 4 improve the stability of the card holder 201 when it slides in the concave holder 2.

[0060] The card holder 201 is connected with the concave holder 2 through springs 401, and two springs 401 are arranged on each card holder 201, and the two springs 401 are sleeved on the corresponding guide columns 4.

[0061] Through the elastic force of the springs 401, the accidental shaking of the card holder 201 is effectively avoided.

[0062] The above is only the preferred specific implementation of the present application, but the protection scope of the present application is not limited to this, any skilled person in the art according to the technical scheme and the application concept of the present application within the technical range disclosed by the present application makes equivalent replacement or change, which should be covered in the protection scope of the present application.
