Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery recycling technology, and in particular to a composite electrode immersion device. Background Technology

[0002] Lithium batteries are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloy as the negative electrode material and a non-aqueous electrolyte solution. They are widely used due to their advantages such as long cycle life, high specific energy, light weight, low self-discharge rate, and good safety performance. In the technology of lithium battery recycling, the electrodes of the disassembled lithium batteries need to be soaked.

[0003] Chinese utility model patent CN216354403U discloses an electrode immersion device for lithium battery recycling, including an immersion shell, a lifting mechanism, and a rolling mechanism. The top of the inner walls at both ends of the immersion shell is provided with an installation groove, and the inner walls on both sides of the installation groove are rotatably connected to the same lead screw. The outer circumference of the lead screw is rotatably connected to a first sliding block by a thread. The lifting mechanism includes a support column fixed to the outer wall of one end of the first sliding block. The outer walls at opposite ends of the two support columns are provided with rectangular grooves, and the top and bottom inner walls of the rectangular grooves are rotatably connected to the same threaded rod.

[0004] Regarding the aforementioned technologies, the inventors believe that the following defects exist: the above-mentioned device uses a waterproof motor and an electric motor to drive the mesh poker to move up and down and rotate within the soaking shell to achieve uniform soaking. In this process, the use of two driving devices results in a waste of resources, thereby increasing the cost of use. Utility Model Content

[0005] To address the aforementioned problems, this invention provides a composite electrode immersion device.

[0006] The above-mentioned technical objective of this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution: a composite electrode immersion device, comprising an immersion bladder with an open top, support legs arranged in an array on the bottom surface of the immersion bladder, a mesh bladder disposed inside the immersion bladder, an installation door rotatably mounted on the upper end of the mesh bladder, a drive rod fixedly disposed on the bottom surface of the mesh bladder, and a drive device for driving the mesh bladder to move disposed on the immersion bladder, the drive device comprising a moving component and a drive component.

[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, when workers need to soak the electrodes, they simply place the electrodes into a mesh tube. Then, workers pour a non-aqueous electrolyte solution into the soaking tube to immerse the electrodes. During this process, workers need to activate a drive device, which moves the mesh tube up and down and rotates under the action of the drive device. Only one drive device is required, thus reducing usage costs.

[0008] Furthermore, the movable component includes a sliding sleeve disposed within the soaking tub and a sliding rod slidably disposed within the sliding sleeve. An arc-shaped groove is formed on the outer wall of the sliding rod. The movable component also includes an arc-shaped component fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve. The arc-shaped component is slidably connected to the arc-shaped groove. The sliding rod is rotatably connected to the sliding sleeve. The sliding rod is fixed to the drive rod.

[0009] Furthermore, a sliding groove is provided through the bottom surface of the soaking tub. The driving assembly includes a support fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the soaking tub, a motor fixedly mounted on the support, a rocker arm fixedly mounted on the end of the motor output shaft, and a T-shaped component slidably mounted in the sliding groove. A connecting groove is provided through the side wall of the T-shaped component. The driving assembly also includes a connecting block slidably mounted in the connecting groove. The connecting block is rotatably connected to the end of the rocker arm away from the motor output shaft, and the T-shaped component is rotatably connected to the sliding rod.

[0010] By adopting the above technical solution, when the operator needs to use the drive device, the operator needs to start the motor, which in turn rotates the motor's output shaft. This causes the rocker arm to rotate under the action of the motor's output shaft, which in turn causes the connecting block to slide along the connecting groove under the action of the rocker arm (during this process, the connecting rod and the rocker arm rotate relative to each other). This causes the T-shaped piece to slide under the action of the connecting block (during this process, after the rocker arm rotates 360 degrees, the T-shaped piece completes its up-and-down reciprocating motion), which in turn causes the sliding rod to slide along the sliding sleeve under the action of the T-shaped piece. During this process, the... Figure 5 As shown, the sliding rod rotates under the action of the arc-shaped component and the arc-shaped groove, which in turn causes the drive rod to move and rotate simultaneously under the action of the sliding rod. This allows the mesh punch to move and rotate simultaneously under the action of the drive rod. In this process, only one motor is needed, thereby reducing the cost of use.

[0011] Furthermore, a limiting groove is formed on the inner wall of the connecting groove, and a limiting block is slidably arranged in the limiting groove, with the limiting block and the connecting block being fixed to each other.

[0012] By adopting the above technical solution, when the connecting block slides, the limiting block slides under the action of the connecting block. During this process, the limiting block limits the connecting block, thereby reducing the probability of the connecting block and the connecting groove separating from each other, thus improving the stability of the device.

[0013] Furthermore, a receiving groove is provided on the inner wall of the slide, and a sealing ring is installed in the receiving groove. The T-shaped member passes through the sealing ring and is slidably connected to the sealing ring.

[0014] By adopting the above technical solution, the sealing ring improves the sealing performance of the device, thereby reducing the probability of leakage of non-aqueous electrolyte solutions and thus improving the sealing performance of the device.

[0015] Furthermore, a rotating rod is fixedly installed on the side wall of the connecting block, and a rotating sleeve is fixedly installed at the end of the rocker arm away from the motor output shaft, and the rotating sleeve is rotatably connected to the rotating rod.

[0016] By adopting the above technical solution, when the rocker arm rotates, the connecting block slides under the action of the rocker arm. During this process, the rotating rod and the rotating sleeve rotate relative to each other, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0017] Furthermore, two symmetrical fixing plates are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the soaking tub, and the ends of the two fixing plates that are close to each other are fixed to the sliding sleeve.

[0018] By adopting the above technical solution, the fixing plate reduces the probability of the sliding sleeve moving, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0019] In summary, this utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0020] 1. In this application, when the operator needs to soak the electrode, the operator needs to place the electrode into the mesh tube. Subsequently, the operator pours a non-aqueous electrolyte solution into the soaking tube to soak the electrode. During this process, the operator needs to activate the drive device, which causes the mesh tube to move up and down and rotate under the action of the drive device. In this process, only one drive device is required, thereby reducing the cost of use;

[0021] 2. In this application, when the operator needs to use the drive device, the operator needs to start the motor, which in turn causes the motor's output shaft to rotate. This causes the rocker arm to rotate under the action of the motor's output shaft, which in turn causes the connecting block to slide along the connecting groove under the action of the rocker arm (during this process, the connecting rod and the rocker arm rotate relative to each other). This causes the T-shaped piece to slide under the action of the connecting block (during this process, after the rocker arm rotates 360 degrees, the T-shaped piece completes its up-and-down reciprocating motion), which in turn causes the sliding rod to slide along the sliding sleeve under the action of the T-shaped piece. During this process, the... Figure 5 As shown, the sliding rod rotates under the action of the arc-shaped component and the arc-shaped groove, which in turn causes the drive rod to move and rotate simultaneously under the action of the sliding rod, thereby causing the mesh punch to move and rotate simultaneously under the action of the drive rod. In this process, only one motor is needed, thus reducing the cost of use.

[0022] 3. In this application, when the connecting block slides, the limiting block slides under the action of the connecting block. During this process, the limiting block limits the connecting block, thereby reducing the probability of the connecting block and the connecting groove separating from each other, thus improving the stability of the device.

[0029] The technical solutions in the embodiments of this application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this application, and not all embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this application without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this application.

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown in the illustration, this application discloses a composite electrode immersion device, including an immersion tank 1, support legs 11, a mesh tank 12, a mounting door 13, a drive rod 14, a moving assembly 3, a drive assembly 4, and a limiting block 5. The immersion tank 1 is a cylindrical structure with an open top and a vertical axis. The support legs 11 are cylindrical rod-shaped structures with a vertical axis, and multiple support legs 11 are arranged in an array on the bottom surface of the immersion tank 1. The mesh tank 12 is disposed inside the immersion tank 1, and its axis coincides with the axis of the immersion tank 1. The mounting door 13 is rotatably mounted on the upper end of the mesh tank 12 for opening and closing the mesh tank 12. The drive rod 14 is a cylindrical rod-shaped structure with its axis coincident with the axis of the mesh tank 12, and the drive rod 14 is fixedly disposed on the bottom surface of the mesh tank 12. The drive assembly is disposed on the immersion tank 1 and is used to drive the mesh tank 12 to move. The drive assembly includes the moving assembly 3 and the drive assembly 4.

[0031] When the staff needs to soak the electrodes, they must place the electrodes into the mesh tube 12. Then, the staff pours a non-aqueous electrolyte solution into the soaking tube 12 to soak the electrodes. During this process, the staff needs to activate the drive device, which causes the mesh tube 12 to move up and down and rotate under the action of the drive device. Only one drive device is needed in this process, thereby reducing the cost of use.

[0032] The moving component 3 includes a sliding sleeve 31, a sliding rod 32, and an arc-shaped component 33. The sliding sleeve 31 is a hollow cylindrical structure with its axis coinciding with the axis of the drive rod 14. The sliding sleeve 31 is disposed within the soaking tub 1. The sliding rod 32 is a round rod-shaped structure with its axis coinciding with the axis of the drive rod 14. The sliding rod 32 is slidably disposed within the sliding sleeve 31. An arc-shaped groove 34 is formed on the outer wall of the sliding rod 32. The sliding rod 32 is rotatably connected to the sliding sleeve 31, and the sliding rod 32 is fixed to the drive rod 14. The arc-shaped component 33 is fixedly disposed on the inner wall of the sliding sleeve 31, and is slidably connected to the arc-shaped groove 34.

[0033] A groove 2 is formed through the bottom surface of the soaking vessel 1. The drive assembly 4 includes a support member 41, a motor 42, a rocker arm 43, a T-shaped member 44, and a connecting block 45. The support member 41 has an L-shaped cross-section and is fixedly mounted on the bottom surface of the soaking vessel 1. The motor 42 is fixedly mounted on the support member 41, and its output shaft axis is horizontal. The rocker arm 43 is fixedly mounted on the end of the output shaft of the motor 42. The T-shaped member 44 has a T-shaped cross-section and is slidably mounted in the groove 2. A connecting groove 21 is formed through the side wall of the T-shaped member 44, and the T-shaped member 44 is rotatably connected to the rocker arm 32. The connecting block 45 is a rectangular block structure and is slidably mounted in the connecting groove 21. The connecting block 45 is rotatably connected to the end of the rocker arm 43 away from the output shaft of the motor 42.

[0034] When the operator needs to use the drive device, the operator needs to start the motor 42, which in turn rotates the output shaft of the motor 42. This causes the rocker arm 43 to rotate under the action of the output shaft of the motor 42, which in turn causes the connecting block 45 to slide along the connecting groove 21 under the action of the rocker arm 43 (during this process, the connecting rod and the rocker arm 43 rotate relative to each other). This causes the T-shaped piece 44 to slide under the action of the connecting block 45 (during this process, after the rocker arm 43 rotates 360 degrees, the T-shaped piece 44 completes up-and-down reciprocating motion), which in turn causes the sliding rod 32 to slide along the sliding sleeve 31 under the action of the T-shaped piece 44. During this process, the... Figure 5 As shown, the slide bar 32 rotates under the action of the arc-shaped part 33 and the arc-shaped groove 34, which in turn causes the drive rod 14 to move and rotate under the action of the slide bar 32, so that the mesh punch 12 moves and rotates under the action of the drive rod 14. In this process, only one motor 42 is needed, thereby reducing the cost of use.

[0035] A limiting groove 22 is provided on the inner wall of the connecting groove 21. The limiting block 5 is a rectangular block structure. The limiting block 5 is slidably disposed in the limiting groove 22, and the limiting block 5 and the connecting block 45 are fixed to each other.

[0036] When the connecting block 45 slides, the limiting block 5 slides under the action of the connecting block 45. During this process, the limiting block 5 limits the connecting block 45, thereby reducing the probability of the connecting block 45 separating from the connecting groove 21, thus improving the stability of the device.

[0037] To improve the device's sealing performance, a receiving groove 23 is formed on the inner wall of the slide 2. A sealing ring 6 is installed in the receiving groove 23, and a T-shaped piece 44 passes through the sealing ring 6 and is slidably connected to it. The sealing ring 6 improves the device's sealing performance, thereby reducing the probability of leakage of non-aqueous electrolyte solutions and thus improving the device's overall sealing performance.

[0038] To improve the stability of the device, a rotating rod 7 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the connecting block 45, and a rotating sleeve 71 is fixedly installed at the end of the rocker arm 43 away from the output shaft of the motor 42. The rotating sleeve 71 is rotatably connected to the rotating rod 7. When the rocker arm 43 rotates, the connecting block 45 slides under the action of the rocker arm 43. During this process, the rotating rod 7 and the rotating sleeve 71 rotate relative to each other, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0039] To improve the stability of the device, two symmetrical fixing plates 8 are fixedly installed on the inner wall of the soaking tank 1. The ends of the two fixing plates 8 that are close to each other are fixed to the sliding sleeve 31. The fixing plates 8 reduce the probability of the sliding sleeve 31 moving, thereby improving the stability of the device.

[0040] The working principle of the composite electrode soaking device in this embodiment is as follows: When the operator needs to soak the electrode, the operator needs to place the electrode into the mesh tube 12. Then, the operator pours a non-aqueous electrolyte solution into the soaking tube 1 to soak the electrode. During this process, the operator needs to start the motor 42, which causes the output shaft of the motor 42 to rotate, thereby causing the rocker arm 43 to rotate under the action of the output shaft of the motor 42. This causes the connecting block 45 to slide along the connecting groove 21 under the action of the rocker arm 43 (during this process, the connecting rod and the rocker arm 43 rotate relative to each other), thereby causing the T-shaped piece 44 to slide under the action of the connecting block 45 (during this process, after the rocker arm 43 rotates 360 degrees, the T-shaped piece 44 completes up-and-down reciprocating motion), thereby causing the sliding rod 32 to slide along the sliding sleeve 31 under the action of the T-shaped piece 44. During this process, the... Figure 5As shown, the slide bar 32 rotates under the action of the arc-shaped part 33 and the arc-shaped groove 34, which in turn causes the drive rod 14 to move and rotate under the action of the slide bar 32, so that the mesh punch 12 moves and rotates under the action of the drive rod 14. In this process, only one motor 42 is needed, thereby reducing the cost of use.

[0041] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this utility model. The protection scope of this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. All technical solutions falling within the scope of this utility model's concept are protected. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, any improvements and modifications made without departing from the principle of this utility model should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
