Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium battery processing technology, and in particular to a lithium battery cap welding device. Background Technology

[0002] Lithium-ion batteries are a type of battery that uses lithium metal or lithium alloys as the positive / negative electrode materials and a non-aqueous electrolyte solution. Due to the highly reactive chemical properties of lithium metal, its processing, storage, and use require very strict environmental control. With the development of science and technology, lithium-ion batteries have become the mainstream technology.

[0003] Currently, lithium battery cap welding devices require manual placement of the cap onto the lithium battery, followed by moving the battery under the welding device. The welding device is then controlled to perform the welding. Manual operation makes it easy to lose balance and misplace the cap. Furthermore, the angle needs to be constantly adjusted during the manual welding process, resulting in slow work efficiency. Workers working close to the welding machine may also be injured. Utility Model Content

A central shaft is connected to the center of the bottom surface of the rotary worktable 2, and the central shaft is rotatably mounted on the frame 1 via bearings. A first drive mechanism for driving the rotary worktable 2 to rotate is provided on one side of the rotary worktable 2. Four rotating stations 6 are provided on the rotary worktable 2. A second drive mechanism for driving the rotating station 6 to rotate is provided below the rotating station 6. A clamping mechanism 11 is provided on the top surface of the rotating station 6. A support frame 1 is provided on the rear side of the rotary worktable 2. 2. A first movable seat 14 and a third drive mechanism for driving the first movable seat 14 to move up and down are provided in front of the support frame 12. A second movable seat 18 and a fourth drive mechanism for driving the second movable seat 18 to move back and forth are provided below the first movable seat 14. A mounting frame 21 is connected to the second movable seat 18. A welder 23 is mounted on the mounting frame 21. A welding device body 22 electrically connected to the welder 23 is connected to the frame 1. The welding device body and the welder are both existing technologies and can be obtained by purchasing them. Their specific structure and working method will not be described in detail here.

[0023] The first drive mechanism includes a first motor 3, which is mounted on the frame 1 via a motor bracket. A first gear 4 is connected to the output shaft of the first motor 3. A gear ring 5 is connected to the outer side of the rotary worktable 2, and the gear ring 5 meshes with the first gear 4. In use, the first motor 3 is started, which drives the first gear 4 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 4 drives the gear ring 5 to rotate, thereby driving the rotary worktable 2 to rotate and completing the switching of work positions.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the second drive mechanism includes a rotating shaft 7, which is rotatably mounted in a mounting hole on the surface of the rotary worktable 2 via a bearing. The top surface of the rotating shaft 7 is connected to the rotary station 6, and the bottom end of the rotating shaft 7 is connected to a second gear 8. A second motor 9 is mounted below the rotary worktable 2 via a motor bracket. A third gear 10, which meshes with the second gear 8, is connected to the output shaft of the second motor 9. In use, the second motor 9 is started, which drives the third gear 10 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 10 drives the second gear 8 to rotate, which drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 7 drives the rotary station 6 to rotate, facilitating the welding of the lithium battery cap.

[0025] like Figure 3As shown, the clamping mechanism 11 includes a positioning disk 11-1, which is connected to the top surface of the rotating station 6 via a support block. The positioning disk 11-1 has twelve adjustment slots 11-1-1. Three adjustment slots 11-1-1 on one side of the positioning disk 11-1 are each fitted with a first bolt assembly 11-8. The first screw in the first bolt assembly 11-8 is installed in a slot of the fixing block 11-2 and locked in place by a first nut. A fixing clamping plate 11-3 is connected to one side of the fixing block 11-2. Two adjustment slots 11-1-1 on the other side of the positioning disk 11-1 are each fitted with a second bolt assembly 11-9. The second screw in the second bolt assembly 11-9 is installed in a slot at the end of the mounting block 11-4 and locked in place by a second nut. A [missing information - likely a typo, should be "…"] is provided in the middle of the mounting block 11-4. A threaded hole is provided, and an operating rod 11-5 is internally threaded into the threaded hole. One end of the operating rod 11-5 near the fixed clamping plate 11-3 is connected to a movable clamping plate 11-6. A U-shaped limiting bracket 11-7 is also connected to the top surface of the positioning disc 11-1. The limiting bracket 11-7 is positioned outside the movable clamping plate 11-6 to ensure that the movable clamping plate 11-6 moves in the same direction without positional deviation. The positions of the fixed block 11-2 and the mounting block 11-4 can be changed by adjusting the positions of the first bolt assembly 11-8 and the second bolt assembly 11-9, thereby changing the distance between the fixed clamping plate 11-3 and the movable clamping plate 11-6 to accommodate different types of lithium batteries. In use, rotating the operating rod 11-5 causes the movable clamping plate 11-6 to move closer to the fixed clamping plate 11-3, thus clamping the lithium battery.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, the third driving mechanism includes a first cylinder 13, which is mounted on the top surface of the support frame 12. The working rod of the first cylinder 13 is connected to the first movable seat 14. A first slide rail 15 is mounted on the front of the support frame 12, and a first slider 16 is slidably mounted on the first slide rail 15. The first slider 16 is connected to the rear of the first movable seat 14. In use, the working rod of the first cylinder 13 extends to drive the first movable seat 14 to move downward. During this process, the first slider 16 moves along the first slide rail 15, improving the stability of the movement of the first movable seat 14.

[0027] The fourth drive mechanism includes a second cylinder 17, which is mounted on the rear side of the first movable seat 14. The working rod of the second cylinder 17 is connected to the second movable seat 18. A second slide rail 19 is mounted on the bottom surface of the first movable seat 14, and a second slider 20 is slidably mounted on the second slide rail 19. The second slider 20 is connected to the top surface of the second movable seat 18. In use, the working rod of the second cylinder 17 extends to push the second movable seat 18 forward. During this process, the second slider 20 moves along the second slide rail 19, improving the stability of the movement of the second movable seat 18.

[0028] The working process of this utility model is as follows:

[0029] First, place the lithium battery on the positioning plate 11-1, rotate the operating lever 11-5, and the operating lever 11-5 will move the movable clamping plate 11-6 closer to the fixed clamping plate 11-3, thereby clamping the lithium battery. Manually place the cap on the lithium battery. Then, start the first motor 3, which drives the first gear 4 to rotate. The rotation of the first gear 4 drives the gear ring 5 to rotate, thereby rotating the rotary worktable 2 and rotating the rotary station 6 with the lithium battery on it below the welder 23. After that, the working rod of the first cylinder 13 extends and drives the first moving seat 14 to move downward, and the working rod of the second cylinder 17 extends and pushes the second moving seat 18 to move forward, adjusting the welder 23 to the working position. Finally, start the second motor 9, which drives the third gear 10 to rotate. The rotation of the third gear 10 drives the second gear 8 to rotate, and the rotation of the second gear 8 drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate. The rotation of the rotating shaft 7 drives the rotary station 6 to rotate, thereby rotating the lithium battery and welding the lithium battery cap with the welder 23.

[0030] While welding the lithium battery cap on one of the rotary stations 6, the workers place the lithium battery and cap on other rotary stations 6. After the welding work on the previous rotary station 6 is completed, the first drive mechanism drives the rotary worktable 2 to rotate, switching stations to ensure continuous welding work and improve work efficiency.
