[0008] A guide member is movably disposed within the receiving cavity along the axial direction of the housing; each clamping portion is correspondingly provided with one guide member; the clamping portion movably passes through the corresponding guide member; and the guide member is inclined.

[0009] The drive structure is at least partially disposed on the outer periphery of the housing and slides along the axial direction of the housing. The guide is fixedly connected to the drive structure and moves synchronously with the drive structure, causing the two clamping parts to move closer to or further away from each other.

[0010] In one embodiment, the guide includes:

[0011] The first movable ring is fixedly connected to the driving structure; and,

[0012] A guide arm is provided on the first moving ring, and the guide arm is inclined in a direction away from the axial direction of the housing.

[0016] A first elastic element is disposed in the receiving cavity and abuts against the first moving ring;

[0017] The second moving ring drives the first moving ring to slide along the first direction and compress the first elastic element. The first elastic element causes the first moving ring to have a tendency to slide along the second direction. The first direction and the second direction are opposite directions extending along the axial direction of the housing.

[0018] In one embodiment, the battery holder assembly further includes a locking structure disposed on the top of the housing for securing the battery.

[0019] In one embodiment, the locking structure includes:

[0020] Multiple rotating components are provided. The housing has a first opening that communicates with the receiving cavity. Multiple grooves are provided at intervals around the periphery of the first opening. Each rotating component is movably disposed in one of the grooves.

[0021] A slot is provided between two adjacent grooves, and the opening of the slot is away from the central axis of the housing; and,

[0022] A second elastic element is arranged around the first opening and within the slot. The second elastic element connects to a plurality of the rotating elements so that the rotating elements tend to move closer to the central axis of the housing.

The clamping portion movably passes through the corresponding guide, which is inclined. The driving structure is at least partially located on the outer periphery of the housing and slides along the axial direction of the housing. The guide and driving structure are fixedly connected and move synchronously with the driving structure, causing the two clamping portions to move closer or further apart. Compared to existing battery cup assemblies without a clamping structure, this utility model's technical solution includes a driving structure and a guide. The driving structure can drive the guide to slide along the axial direction of the housing, allowing the guide to guide the two clamping portions closer together to clamp the battery. This ensures relative stability between the battery cell and the housing, preventing collisions between the battery cell and the housing during battery transport and improving the reliability of the battery cup assembly.

[0050] Taking the battery welding process as an example, the battery holder can transport the battery and provide a welding platform. That is, after the battery is placed in the casing and then into the battery holder, the holder transports the battery to the welding station for welding the top cover. With technological advancements, users' requirements for battery holders are gradually increasing, and existing battery holders still have some shortcomings.

[0051] Existing battery holders transport batteries after the cells are inserted into the casing. However, during transportation, the cells and the casing, as well as the casing and the battery holder, are prone to relative misalignment, which can damage the battery.

[0052] This utility model proposes a battery cup assembly and battery processing equipment to reduce battery damage during transportation and thus improve the reliability of the battery cup assembly.

[0053] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the battery cup assembly includes a housing 100, a clamping assembly 200, a guide, and a drive structure.

[0054] The housing 100 has a receiving cavity for providing a mounting base and accommodating the battery 800. In one embodiment, the housing 100 is cylindrical to accommodate the cylindrical battery 800. Of course, in other embodiments, the housing 100 can also be rectangular or polygonal, etc. The shape of the housing 100 can be flexibly set according to actual conditions, and no specific limitation is made here. In one embodiment, the housing 100 has a first opening 110 and a second opening communicating with the receiving cavity. The first opening 110 and the second opening are arranged opposite to each other along the axial direction of the housing 100, and the battery 800 enters the receiving cavity through the first opening 110. In one embodiment, the size of the first opening 110 is smaller than the size of the second opening to ensure that there is sufficient mounting space in the receiving cavity while allowing the first opening 110 to fit the battery 800 more closely, reducing the shaking of the battery 800. The sizes of the first opening 110 and the second opening can be flexibly set according to actual needs, and no limitation is made here.

[0055] A clamping assembly 200 is disposed in the receiving cavity, and the clamping assembly 200 includes at least two clamping portions 210 disposed opposite each other for clamping the battery 800. (See also...) Figure 5 In one embodiment, the clamping assembly 200 includes two clamping portions 210 and a mounting base 220, with the two clamping portions 210 movably mounted on the mounting base 220. In another embodiment, the mounting base 220 is provided with a bracket 221 and two guide rods 222. The bracket 221 is located on opposite sides of the mounting base 220, and the two guide rods 222 are arranged in parallel, with both ends of the guide rods 222 fixed to the bracket 221. The two clamping portions 210 are slidably mounted on the two guide rods 222 via sliding members 223, and the extending direction of the guide rods 222 is perpendicular to the central axis of the housing 100. Of course, in other embodiments, the mounting base 220 may also be provided with a guide rail, and the clamping portions 210 are slidably mounted on the guide rail. Here, the specific structure of the clamping assembly 200 is not limited. The two clamping portions 210 can slide along the guide rods 222 to move closer or further apart, thereby clamping or releasing the battery 800. In this embodiment, when the battery 800 is clamped, the centers of the two clamping portions 210 are located on the same axis as the center of the battery 800. In one embodiment, the cross-sectional shape of the clamping portion 210 is configured to conform to the shape of the battery 800. The cross-sectional shape of the clamping portion 210 can be arc-shaped or hexagonal, etc., to maintain clamping stability. No specific limitation is placed on the cross-sectional shape of the clamping portion 210. The clamping portion 210 can be a jaw, caliper, or clamping ring, etc., and no specific limitation is placed on the form of the clamping portion 210. Of course, in other embodiments, the clamping portion 210 can also be three, four, or more; no specific limitation is placed on the number of clamping portions 210.

[0056] A guide member is movably disposed within the receiving cavity along the axial direction of the housing 100. Each clamping part 210 is correspondingly provided with a guide member, and the clamping part 210 is movably disposed within the corresponding guide member. The guide members are inclined. In one embodiment, all guide members are provided with inclined surfaces, one end of each inclined surface being close to the central axis of the housing 100, and the other end being away from the central axis of the housing 100. The clamping part 210 is movably disposed within the corresponding guide member and is in close contact with the inclined surface. Guided by the inclined surface, all clamping parts 210 can move in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction of the housing 100 to move closer to or further away from each other. In one embodiment, two guide members are provided, and one clamping part 210 is movably disposed within one guide member, with the clamping part 210 in close contact with the inclined surface. Of course, in other embodiments, three, four, or more guide members may be provided. The number of guide members can be flexibly set according to the number of clamping parts 210, and is not limited here.

[0057] A drive structure, at least partially disposed on the outer periphery of the housing 100 and sliding along the axial direction of the housing 100, is provided. A guide member is fixedly connected to the drive structure and moves synchronously with it, causing the two clamping portions 210 to move closer or further apart. The drive structure slides along the axial direction of the housing 100, thereby driving the guide member to slide synchronously along the axial direction of the housing 100. The guide member guides the clamping portions 210 to move closer or further apart to clamp or release the battery 800. Specifically, in one embodiment, after the battery cell is inserted into the housing to form the battery 800, the drive structure, under the action of an external force, drives the guide member to slide along the axial direction of the housing 100. The inclined surface of the guide member guides the clamping portions 210 to move further apart, facilitating the placement of the battery 800 into the battery holder assembly. After the battery 800 is placed, the drive structure drives the guide member to slide synchronously along the axial direction of the housing 100, and the inclined surface of the guide member guides the two clamping portions 210 to move closer together to clamp the battery 800. Thus, the drive structure is at least partially exposed outside the housing 100, making it easy for the user to control the drive structure so that the guide moves along the axial direction of the housing 100, thereby allowing the two clamping parts 210 to move closer or further apart, improving the ease of use of the battery cup assembly.

[0058] The technical solution of this utility model involves a battery cup assembly comprising a housing 100, a clamping assembly 200, a guide member, and a driving structure. The housing 100 has a receiving cavity, the clamping assembly 200 is disposed within the receiving cavity, and the clamping assembly 200 includes at least two clamping portions 210 arranged opposite each other. A guide member is movably disposed within the receiving cavity along the axial direction of the housing 100, and each clamping portion 210 corresponds to a guide member, with the clamping portion 210 movably passing through the corresponding guide member, which is inclined. The driving structure is at least partially disposed on the outer periphery of the housing 100 and slides along the axial direction of the housing 100. The guide member and the driving structure are fixedly connected and move synchronously with the driving structure, causing the two clamping portions 210 to move closer or further apart. Compared to existing battery cups without a clamping structure, the technical solution of this utility model includes a driving structure and a guide member, with the guide member being inclined. The drive structure can drive the guide to slide along the axial direction of the housing 100. The guide guides the two clamping parts 210 to move closer to each other to clamp the battery 800, making the cell and the housing relatively stable. This avoids collisions between the cell and the housing, and between the housing and the battery cup assembly, during the transportation of the battery 800, thereby preventing damage to the battery 800 and improving the reliability of the battery cup assembly.

[0059] Please see Figure 1 and Figure 2 In one embodiment, the guide includes a first movable ring 320 and a guide arm 310. The first movable ring 320 is fixedly connected to the drive structure. The guide arm 310 is disposed on the first movable ring 320 and is inclined in a direction away from the axial direction of the housing 100.

[0060] In one embodiment, the first movable ring 320 is sleeved on the outer periphery of the mounting base 220, and the first movable ring 320 can move relative to the mounting base 220 along the axial direction of the housing 100. In one embodiment, the first movable rings 320 of the two guide members are integrally formed to ensure the synchronous movement of the two guide arms 310. Specifically, in one embodiment, only one first movable ring 320 is provided, and at least two guide arms 310 are provided at intervals along the periphery of the first movable ring 320. Of course, in other embodiments, multiple first movable rings 320 may be provided, and multiple first movable rings 320 may be integrally formed or fixedly connected, which is not limited here. In one embodiment, the clamping part 210 is movably inserted through the guide arm 310, the inclined surface of the guide member is provided on the guide arm 310, the guide arm 310 is also provided with a vertical surface, one end of the vertical surface is provided on the first movable ring 320, and the other end of the vertical surface is connected to the inclined surface, the inclined surface is inclined in a direction away from the axial direction of the housing 100. In one embodiment, the inclination angle of the ramp is greater than or equal to 15 degrees and less than or equal to 20 degrees. On the one hand, this avoids the inclination angle being too small, which would result in an excessively long travel distance required for the guide member to move the two clamping parts 210 closer or further apart; on the other hand, it avoids the inclination angle being too large, which would result in excessive driving force required to drive the guide member to slide along the axial direction of the housing 100, thus ensuring the responsiveness of the battery cup assembly. Here, no specific limitation is made on the inclination angle of the ramp. Of course, in other embodiments, the guide arm 310 may only have an inclination angle; here, no limitation is made on the guide arm 310.

[0061] Thus, the guide component includes a first moving ring 320 and a guide arm 310, simplifying its structure. The drive structure can move the first moving ring 320 along the axial direction of the housing 100, and the two first moving rings 320 are integrally set, ensuring the synchronous movement of the two guide arms 310, thereby ensuring the synchronous movement of the two clamping parts 210, improving the accuracy and reliability of the battery cup assembly. The guide arm 310 has an inclined surface and a vertical surface. The inclined surface can guide the movement of the clamping part 210, and the vertical surface can limit the travel of the clamping part 210, improving the accuracy of the guide component.

[0062] Please see Figures 3 to 5 Specifically, in one embodiment, the clamping part 210 is provided with an inclined groove 211, which is inclined in a direction away from the axial direction of the housing 100 and moves through the corresponding guide arm 310. The groove wall of the inclined groove 211 abuts against the guide arm 310.

[0063] In one embodiment, the wall of the inclined groove 211 abuts against the inclined surface of the guide arm 310. Further, in one embodiment, the guide arm 310 has a wedge-shaped cross-section, and the cross-sectional shape of the inclined groove 211 adapts to the cross-sectional shape of the guide arm 310 to ensure a tight fit between the clamping part 210 and the guide arm 310. Of course, in other embodiments, the cross-sectional shape of the guide arm 310 can also be rectangular, trapezoidal, or polygonal, etc., and the cross-sectional shape of the groove 120 can be flexibly set according to the cross-sectional shape of the guide arm 310. Here, the shapes of the guide arm 310 and the groove 120 are not limited. Of course, in other embodiments, the clamping part 210 may also have a through hole, which movably passes through the guide arm 310, and the wall of the through hole abuts against the inclined surface of the guide arm 310. Here, the connection method between the clamping part 210 and the guide arm 310 is not limited.

[0064] Thus, by providing a sloping groove 211 in the clamping part 210, the guide arm 310 is movably inserted through the sloping groove 211, and the guide arm 310 moves relative to the sloping groove 211 to guide the two clamping parts 210 to move closer or further away from each other. The structure is simple and easy to operate, improving the ease of assembly and operation of the guide component.

[0065] Please see Figures 1 to 4 The driving structure includes a second moving ring 410 and a first elastic member 420. The second moving ring 410 is slidably sleeved on the outer periphery of the housing 100 along the axial direction of the housing 100, and the second moving ring 410 is fixedly connected to the first moving ring 320. The first elastic member 420 is disposed in the receiving cavity and abuts against the first moving ring 320.

[0066] Under the action of external force, the second moving ring 410 drives the first moving ring 320 to slide along the first direction and compress the first elastic member 420. The first elastic member 420 makes the first moving ring 320 have a tendency to slide along the second direction. The first direction and the second direction are opposite directions extending along the axial direction of the housing 100.

[0067] In one embodiment, the side wall of the housing 100 is provided with a connection port 140 communicating with the receiving cavity, and the connection port 140 extends along the axis of the housing 100. The first moving ring 320 is provided with an extension, which is correspondingly provided with the guide arm 310, and the extension passes through the connection port 140 and is fixedly connected to the second moving ring 410. Further, in one embodiment, there are two connection ports 140 opposite to each other, and two extensions are provided correspondingly. The size of the connection port 140 can be flexibly set according to the required movement stroke of the first moving ring 320 and the second moving ring 410, and is not limited here. Of course, in other embodiments, there may be three, four or more connection ports 140 and extensions, and the number of connection ports 140 and extensions can be flexibly set according to the number of clamping parts 210 and guide arms 310, and is not limited here.

[0068] Specifically, in one embodiment, the first direction is the direction extending axially along the housing 100 toward the second opening, and the second direction is the direction extending axially along the housing 100 toward the first opening 110. In one embodiment, the first elastic member 420 is sleeved on the mounting base 220, and the first elastic member 420 is located at the bottom of the first moving ring 320, so that the first moving ring 320 has a tendency to disengage from the mounting base 220 along the second direction. The first elastic member 420 can be a spring, a rubber sleeve, or a silicone pad, etc., and is not limited thereto. Further, in one embodiment, a guide sleeve 430 is also provided on the outer periphery of the mounting base 220. The first moving ring 320 and the first elastic member 420 are both sleeved on the outer periphery of the guide sleeve 430. The guide sleeve 430 can reduce the friction between the first moving ring 320 and the first elastic member 420 and the mounting base 220, thereby improving the smoothness of the movement of the first moving ring 320 and enabling the first elastic member 420 to better exert its elastic deformation capability. The guide sleeve 430 can be configured as a cylindrical structure made of plastic or metal, etc., and there are no restrictions on the guide sleeve 430.

[0069] When the second moving ring 410 is not subjected to external force, i.e., when the battery cup assembly is in its initial state, the first moving ring 320 is only subjected to the elastic force of the second elastic member 520. The clamping part 210 passes through the end of the guide arm 310 near the central axis of the housing 100, i.e., the two clamping parts 210 are close to each other. When the second moving ring 410 is subjected to external force, i.e., when the battery cup assembly is in use, the second moving ring 410 drives the first moving ring 320 to slide along the first direction and compress the first elastic member 420 until the clamping part 210 passes through the end of the guide arm 310 away from the central axis of the housing 100, i.e., the two clamping parts 210 are far apart from each other to facilitate the insertion of the battery 800. After the battery 800 is placed, the external force is removed. Under the elastic force of the first elastic member 420, the first moving ring 320 will slide along the second direction until the two clamping parts 210 clamp the battery 800. At this time, the battery cup assembly returns to its initial state.

[0070] The technical solution of this utility model embodiment achieves the clamping and holding function of the battery cup assembly by setting a first moving ring 320, a guide arm 310, a second moving ring 410, and a first elastic member 420. On the one hand, the structure is simple and easy to assemble and operate, improving the ease of use of the battery cup assembly; on the other hand, the battery cup assembly can keep the battery shell and top cover at a high degree of concentricity, avoiding collisions between the battery cell and the shell, and between the shell and the housing 100 during the transportation of the battery 800, thus improving the reliability of the battery cup assembly.

[0071] Please see Figures 1 to 3 In one embodiment, the battery cup assembly further includes a locking structure located on the top of the housing 100 for securing the battery 800.

[0072] In one embodiment, the locking structure includes multiple rotating members 510, a slot 130, and a second elastic member 520. The housing 100 has a first opening 110 communicating with a receiving cavity. Multiple grooves 120 are spaced apart around the periphery of the first opening 110, and the rotating members 510 are movably disposed in corresponding grooves 120. A slot 130 is provided between two adjacent grooves 120, with the opening of the slot 130 facing away from the central axis of the housing 100. The second elastic member 520 is circumferentially disposed at the first opening 110 and within the slot 130. The second elastic member 520 connects the multiple rotating members 510, causing the rotating members 510 to tend to approach the central axis of the housing 100. In one embodiment, four rotating members 510 and four slots 130 are provided, evenly distributed around the periphery of the first opening 110, to ensure a more uniform force applied to the outer periphery of the battery 800 by the locking structure. Of course, in other embodiments, three, two, or more rotating members 510 and slots 130 may be provided; this is not limited. In one embodiment, the groove 120 extends from the inner wall of the first opening 110 to the outer periphery of the housing 100, and the rotating member 510 can rotate along the extending direction of the groove 120. In one embodiment, the rotating member 510 is a rotating cylinder, and the second elastic member 520 is a ring spring connected to the rotating cylinder. Of course, in other embodiments, the rotating member 510 can also be a roller, etc., and the second elastic member 520 can also be a rubber ring or elastic rope, etc. Here, the rotating member 510 and the second elastic member 520 and their specific forms are not limited.

[0073] When the battery cup assembly is in its initial state and the battery is not inserted, at least part of the rotating member 510 blocks the first opening 110. When the battery cup assembly is in use, the battery 800 enters the receiving cavity through the first opening 110, and the rotating member 510 is pushed by the battery 800 to rotate along the groove 120 toward the outer periphery of the housing 100; when the battery 800 is in place, under the elastic force of the second elastic member 520, the rotating member 510 always fits against the outer periphery of the battery 800 to fix the battery 800, and the battery cup assembly returns to its initial state.

[0074] The technical solution of this utility model embodiment, by setting a rotating member 510, a slot 130, and a second elastic member 520, allows the second elastic member 520 to drive the rotating member 510 to surround the battery 800 to fix the top of the battery 800. The slot 130 prevents the first elastic member 420 from detaching from the housing 100, ensuring the normal operation of the locking structure and further improving the reliability of the battery cup assembly. When the battery cup assembly is in use, that is, during the insertion of the battery 800, the rotating member 510 rolls synchronously, avoiding damage to the surface of the battery 800 and reducing the resistance during the insertion process, further improving the ease of use of the battery cup assembly.

[0075] Please see Figures 2 to 4 In one embodiment, the battery cup assembly further includes a rotating base 700 disposed in the receiving cavity and threadedly connected to the side wall of the receiving cavity, and a clamping assembly 200 disposed in the rotating base 700.

[0076] In one embodiment, the outer periphery of the rotating base 700 is threaded, and the inner wall of the receiving cavity is correspondingly threaded. The rotating base 700 and the side wall of the receiving cavity are connected by threads. A clamping assembly 200 is disposed on the rotating base 700. The distance between the clamping assembly 200 and the first opening 110 can be adjusted by rotating the threads of the rotating base 700, thereby accommodating batteries 800 of different heights. In one embodiment, the rotating base 700 is positioned close to the second opening, facilitating adjustment of the rotating base 700 through the second opening and improving the ease of use and flexibility of the battery cup assembly. Further, in one embodiment, a mounting base 220 is disposed on and rotatably connected to the rotating base 700, preventing the mounting base 220 from rotating synchronously when the rotating base 700 rotates. Specifically, in one embodiment, a bearing is provided between the rotating base 700 and the mounting base 220, rotatably connecting the rotating base 700 and the mounting base 220. In one embodiment, the bearing includes an upper bearing cap 610, a rolling bearing 630, and a lower bearing cap 620. One side of the upper bearing cap 610 is fixedly connected to the mounting base 220, and the other side of the upper bearing cap 610 is located on the inner ring of the rolling bearing 630. One side of the lower bearing cap 620 is fixedly connected to the rotating base 700, and the other side of the lower bearing cap 620 is located on the outer ring of the rolling bearing 630. Of course, in other embodiments, the rotating base 700 and the mounting base 220 can also be rotatably connected by ball bearings, sliders, or helices, etc. Here, the rotatable connection method is not limited.

[0077] The technical solution of this utility model embodiment, by providing a rotating base 700 threadedly connected to the inner wall of the receiving cavity, enables the battery cup assembly to adapt to batteries 800 of different heights, thus expanding the application range of the battery cup assembly. The rotating base 700 and the mounting base 220 are rotatably connected by bearings, preventing the mounting base 220 from rotating when the rotating base 700 rotates, which would affect the guide clamping part 210 and ensure the normal realization of the clamping and holding function of the battery cup assembly.
