The rotary cylinder assembly includes a bracket with bearings on both sides, a rotating shaft connected to the bracket, a battery placement backplate connected to the rotating shaft, and a rotary cylinder connected to the end of the rotating shaft. The rotary cylinder drives the rotating shaft to rotate, causing the battery placement backplate to flip.

It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of this utility model.

[0018] It should be noted that in this embodiment of the invention, all directional indications (such as up, down, left, right, front, back, etc.) are limited to relative positions on the specified view, rather than absolute positions.

[0019] Furthermore, in this utility model, the use of terms such as "first," "second," etc., is for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying their relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Therefore, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "multiple" means at least two, such as two, three, etc., unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0020] Please see Figures 1 to 5 The positioning and flipping mechanism for soft-pack batteries of this utility model includes a rotary cylinder assembly 10, an anti-tipping clamping assembly, a positioning cylinder assembly 40, and a suction cup assembly 50. The rotary cylinder assembly 10 includes a bracket 11 with bearings on both sides. A rotating shaft 12 is axially connected to the bracket 11. A battery placement back plate 13 is connected to the rotating shaft 12. A rotary cylinder 14 is connected to the end of the rotating shaft 12. The rotary cylinder 14 drives the rotating shaft 12 to rotate, and the rotating shaft 12 causes the battery placement back plate 13 to flip.

[0021] The anti-tipping clamping assembly is disposed on one side of the rotary cylinder assembly 10. The anti-tipping clamping assembly includes an anti-tipping cylinder assembly 20 and a clamping cylinder 30, and the clamping cylinder 30 is connected to the anti-tipping cylinder assembly 20.

[0022] The positioning cylinder assembly 40 and the suction cup assembly 50 are respectively connected to the battery placement back plate 13. The positioning cylinder assembly 40 is used to position the soft-pack battery 60, and the suction cup assembly 50 is used to adsorb the soft-pack battery 60.

[0023] The position of the pressing cylinder 30 corresponds to the position of the suction cup assembly 50. The pressing cylinder 30 is used to press the soft-pack battery 60 tightly against the suction cup assembly 50, which is beneficial for stable adsorption.

[0024] The battery placement backplate 13 has three U-shaped grooves in the middle, and the suction cup assembly 50 is installed in the U-shaped grooves and can be adjusted up, down, left, and right to adapt to batteries of different sizes.

[0025] The anti-tipping cylinder assembly 20 includes a gantry frame 21, which is disposed on one side of the rotary cylinder assembly 10. At least two horizontal anti-tipping cylinders 22 are connected to the gantry frame 21. The output end of the anti-tipping cylinder 22 is connected to a first push plate 23. The anti-tipping cylinder 22 drives the first push plate 23 to move back and forth horizontally. The clamping cylinder 30 is connected to the first push plate 23.

[0026] The output end of the pressing cylinder 30 is connected to a second push plate 32. A soft protective layer is provided on one side of the second push plate 32. The pressing cylinder 30 drives the second push plate 32 to press the soft-pack battery 60 against the suction cup assembly 50, which is beneficial for stable adsorption.

[0027] The anti-tipping cylinder 22 extends together with the clamping cylinder 30 to prevent the battery from tipping over. After the battery is positioned, the clamping cylinder 30 extends forward to make the battery fit against the battery placement backplate 13. The purpose is to ensure that the battery fits completely against the battery placement backplate 13 so that the suction cup can fully pick up and fix the battery.

[0028] The positioning cylinder assembly 40 includes a clamping cylinder 41. Adjusting plates 42 are connected to the two jaws of the clamping cylinder 41, and a lever 43 is connected to each adjusting plate 42. The clamping cylinder 41 drives the adjusting plate 42 and the lever 43 to perform opening and positioning.

[0029] The adjustment plate 4 is provided with a row of threaded holes, and the lever 43 is connected to the threaded holes by screws. The lever 43 can be changed to adapt to batteries of different sizes, thereby improving versatility.

[0030] During operation, two pouch batteries 60 are brought to the top of the positioning and flipping mechanism by other components. The initial position of the rotary cylinder assembly 10 is upright. The pouch batteries 60 are vertically lowered and placed on the rotary cylinder assembly 10. The anti-tipping cylinder assembly 20 extends and maintains a certain gap with the pouch batteries 60. The positioning cylinder assembly 40 opens the clamp and moves the pouch batteries 60 to fix their position in the left and right directions. The pressing cylinder 30 extends and contacts the pouch batteries 60, pressing them against the suction cup assembly 50. After the suction cup assembly 50 holds and fixes the pouch batteries 60, the rotary cylinder assembly 10 rotates 90° to bring the pouch batteries 60 to a flat position. Subsequently, the batteries are moved to other workstations by other mechanisms.

[0031] Compared with the prior art, the positioning and flipping mechanism for soft-pack batteries of this utility model can complete the battery repositioning and flipping and battery positioning functions in one station, and can be adapted to batteries of different sizes, which helps to improve efficiency and meet the needs of higher-speed production.
