[0023] The feeding mechanism 20 feeds the battery tabs to be cut, the position adjustment component 31 adjusts the position of the cutting component 33, and the limiting component 32 limits the output end of the position adjustment component 31. After the position adjustment component 31 adjusts the position of the cutting component 33, the cutting component 33 cuts the battery tabs on the feeding component. After the cutting is completed, the detection mechanism 40 judges whether the cut size meets the requirements.

[0024] Through the coordinated operation of the feeding mechanism 20, the cutting mechanism 30, and the detection mechanism 40, automatic feeding, position adjustment, cutting, and size detection of battery tabs are achieved. The longitudinal movement design of the feeding mechanism 20 facilitates the placement and adjustment of battery tabs.

The detection mechanism 40 can quickly and accurately determine whether the cutting size is qualified, which improves the cutting efficiency and quality of battery tabs, reduces manual operation and errors, and lowers production costs, thus having high practical value.

The position adjustment drive cylinder 311 is vertically mounted on the worktable 10. Through the connecting rod 312, it drives the mounting slide 313 to move up and down, thereby adjusting the position of the cutting component 33 so that the cutting blade 332 can accurately cut the battery tabs on the feeding mechanism 20. The cutting drive cylinder 331 in the cutting component 33 is vertically mounted on the mounting slide 313. The cutting blade 332 is mounted on the output end of the cutting drive cylinder 331.

[0031] The limiting component 32 limits the output end of the position adjustment component 31 to ensure the stability of the cutting process and prevent the position of the cutting component 33 from shifting or becoming misaligned.

The lifting drive cylinder 44 is installed at the output end of the transverse slide 43, and the size sensor 45 is installed at the output end of the lifting drive cylinder 44. It can move up and down and face the feeding plate 46 to detect whether the size of the cut battery tabs meets the requirements.

[0036] The feeding mechanism feeds the battery tabs to be cut, the position adjustment component adjusts the position of the cutting component, and the limiting component limits the output end of the position adjustment component.

[0037] The key design feature of this invention lies in the fact that, through the coordinated operation of the feeding mechanism, cutting mechanism, and inspection mechanism, it achieves automatic feeding, position adjustment, cutting, and size inspection of battery tabs. The longitudinal movement design of the feeding mechanism facilitates the placement and adjustment of the battery tabs.
