[0055] Battery devices are increasingly widely used in life and industry, for example, new energy vehicles equipped with battery devices have been widely used, and for example, battery devices are also increasingly used in the energy storage field.

[0056] In the production process of the battery device, it is usually necessary to customize the pressing mechanism according to the size of the battery device, and to press two components in the battery device by using the customized pressing mechanism, so that the two components in the battery device are in close contact with each other, facilitating the connection mechanism to perform the connection operation on the two components in the battery device.

[0057] As an example, in the process of connecting the lid and the box in the battery device, a pressing plate needs to be used to press against the lid, so that the lid is in close contact with the box, and then the connection mechanism is used to perform the connection operation on the lid and the box. In order to make the lid and the box better in close contact with each other, the size of the pressing plate needs to be adapted to the size of the lid, therefore, it is necessary to customize the pressing plate according to different models of the lid, but the customization cost of the pressing plate is high, and the customization quantity is large, which is not conducive to reducing the production cost of the battery device.

[0058] Based on the above considerations, in order to reduce the production cost of the battery device, the battery assembling device provided by the embodiments of the present application can not only adjust the relative position of the second seat body and the assembling station along the first direction through the first position adjusting structure, so as to adjust the relative position of the pressing assembly and the assembling station along the first direction, but also adjust the relative position of the pressing assembly and the assembling station along the second direction through the second position adjusting structure. In this way, the position of the pressing assembly can be adjusted along the first direction and the second direction according to battery devices of different sizes, so that the above-mentioned battery assembling device can be applicable to battery devices of various sizes, thereby reducing the number of customized pressing mechanisms, and even without the need for additional customization of the pressing mechanism, effectively reducing the production cost of the battery device.

[0059] The battery assembling device provided by the embodiments of the present application can be used for connecting operation of two components in the battery device.

[0068] The technical solutions provided in the embodiments of this application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0069] Firstly, please refer to the following: Figure 1 and Figure 2 This application provides a battery assembly device 100, which has an assembly station 101 for placing a battery device 200. The battery assembly device 100 includes a first mechanism 10 and a second mechanism 20. The first mechanism 10 is disposed on one side of the assembly station 101 and includes a first seat 11, a second seat 12, and a pressure component 13. The second seat 12 is mounted on the first seat 11 through a first position adjustment structure 14, which is used to adjust the relative position of the second seat 12 and the assembly station 101 along a first direction. The pressure component 13 is used to press against a first component of the battery device 200 so that the first component and the second component in the battery device 200 are in close contact with each other. The pressure component 13 is mounted on the second seat 12 through a second position adjustment structure 15, which is used to adjust the relative position of the pressure component 13 and the assembly station 101 along a second direction, wherein the first direction and the second direction intersect. The second mechanism 20 is used to connect the first component and the second component when the pressure component 13 presses against the first component.

[0070] In some embodiments, the first direction may refer to one of the width, length, and height directions of the assembly station 101, and the second direction may refer to the other of the width, length, and height directions of the assembly station 101. As an example, the battery assembly device 100 also has a third direction: the first direction is the width direction of the assembly station 101 (X direction as shown in the figure), the second direction is the length direction of the assembly station 101 (Y direction as shown in the figure), and the third direction is the height direction of the assembly station 101 (Z direction as shown in the figure), i.e., the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are arranged perpendicularly to each other.

[0071] Assembly station 101 is used to provide assembly operation space for battery device 200, that is, battery device 200 can be placed at assembly station 101 for assembly operation of battery device 200.

[0072] The first mechanism 10 is used to press against the first component so as to make the first component abut against the second component. The first mechanism 10 can be arranged on either side of the assembly station 101. As an example, the first mechanism 10 is arranged on one side of the assembly station 101 along the width direction; as an example, the first mechanism 10 is arranged on one side of the assembly station 101 along the length direction.

[0073] The first seat body 11 is a support body of the first mechanism 10, and the first seat body 11 is a component used to provide a mounting environment of the second seat body 12.

[0074] The second seat body 12 is a component used to provide a mounting environment of the pressing assembly 13. The second seat body 12 is mounted on the first seat body 11 through the first position adjusting structure 14, and the first position adjusting structure 14 is used to adjust the relative position of the second seat body 12 and the assembly station 101 along the first direction. In other words, the second seat body 12 can be subjected to a position adjusting operation through the first position adjusting structure 14, and after the position adjusting operation is completed, the second seat body 12 can be locked at the adjusted position. Understandably, the pressing assembly 13 is mounted on the second seat body 12, and during the position adjusting operation of the second seat body 12, the pressing assembly 13 is also subjected to a position adjusting operation synchronously with the second seat body 12.

[0075] The pressing assembly 13 is an assembly used to abut against the first component of the battery device 200. The pressing assembly 13 applies pressure to the first component so as to make the first component and the second component of the battery device 200 abut against each other. The pressing assembly 13 is mounted on the second seat body 12 through the second position adjusting structure 15, and the second position adjusting structure 15 is used to adjust the relative position of the pressing assembly 13 and the assembly station 101 along the second direction. In other words, the pressing assembly 13 can be subjected to a position adjusting operation through the second position adjusting structure 15, and after the position adjusting operation is completed, the pressing assembly 13 can be locked at the adjusted position.

[0076] In some embodiments, the first direction is the width direction of the assembly station 101, the second direction is the length direction of the assembly station 101, the first mechanism 10 is arranged on one side of the assembly station 101 along the width direction, that is, the first position adjusting structure 14 is used to adjust the distance between the second seat body 12 and the assembly station 101 along the width direction of the assembly station 101, and the second position adjusting structure 15 is used to adjust the relative position of the pressing assembly 13 and the assembly station 101 along the length direction of the assembly station 101.

[0077] The second mechanism 20 is the core functional mechanism of the battery assembly device 100, and the second mechanism 20 is used to connect the first component and the second component. As an example, the second mechanism 20 can be, but is not limited to, an electrically-driven wrench mechanism, an electrically-driven riveting mechanism, a welding mechanism, etc.

[0078] In some embodiments, the battery assembling device 100 further comprises a base 40, the base 40 is provided with the assembling station 101, and the first seat body 11 and the second mechanism 20 are both mounted on the base 40.

[0079] In the embodiments of the present application, during the connection of the first component and the second component, the first mechanism 10 can be used to press the first component, so that the first component and the second component are in close contact with each other, and then the second mechanism 20 is used to perform the connection operation on the first component and the second component.

[0080] For example, the battery assembling device 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application can be used to connect the cover and the box body of the battery device 200. During the connection of the cover and the box body of the battery device 200, the first mechanism 10 can be used to press the cover, so that the cover and the box body are in close contact with each other, and then the second mechanism 20 is used to perform the connection operation on the cover and the box body.

[0081] The battery assembling device 100 provided by the embodiments of the present application not only can adjust the relative position of the second seat body 12 and the assembling station 101 along the first direction through the first position adjusting structure 14, so as to adjust the relative position of the pressing assembly 13 and the assembling station 101 along the first direction, but also can adjust the relative position of the pressing assembly 13 and the assembling station 101 along the second direction through the second position adjusting structure 15. In this way, the position of the pressing assembly 13 can be adjusted along the first direction and the second direction according to the battery device 200 of different sizes, so that the battery assembling device 100 can be applied to battery devices 200 of various sizes, thereby reducing the number of customized pressing mechanisms, and even without additional customization of the pressing mechanism, effectively reducing the production cost of the battery device 200.

[0082] In addition, since the battery assembling device 100 can be applied to battery devices 200 of various sizes, the number of times of changing the first mechanism 10 in the battery assembling device 100 can be effectively reduced, thereby effectively improving the assembling efficiency of the battery assembling device 100.

[0083] In some embodiments of the present application, referring to Figure 2 The first position adjusting structure 14 comprises a guide structure 141 and a first driver 142, the guide structure 141 extends along the first direction, the second seat body 12 is movably mounted on the guide structure 141, and the first driver 142 is used to drive the second seat body 12 to move back and forth along the first direction, so as to adjust the relative position of the second seat body 12 and the assembling station 101 along the first direction.

[0084] The guide structure 141 is a structure that plays a role of direction guiding during the position adjustment of the second seat body 12.

[0085] In some embodiments, the guide structure 141 comprises a guide rail 1411 and a guide block 1412, one of the guide rail 1411 and the guide block 1412 is arranged on the first seat body 11, and the other of the guide rail 1411 and the guide block 1412 is arranged on the second seat body 12, the guide rail 1411 extends along the first direction, and the guide block 1412 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 1411. During the position adjustment of the pressing assembly 13 along the first direction, the second seat body 12 can be reciprocally slid along the guide rail 1411, which effectively improves the stability of the pressing assembly 13 during the position adjustment along the first direction, thereby effectively improving the reliability of the battery assembling device 100.

[0086] For example, the guide rail 1411 is arranged on the first seat body 11, the guide block 1412 is arranged on the second seat body 12, and the guide block 1412 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 1411.

[0087] For example, the guide block 1412 is arranged on the first seat body 11, the guide rail 1411 is arranged on the second seat body 12, and the guide block 1412 is slidably mounted on the guide rail 1411.

[0088] The first driver 142 is configured to provide power for the movement of the second seat body 12 along the first direction. The first driver 142 can be, but is not limited to, an electric pneumatic cylinder, an electric hydraulic cylinder, a rack and pinion driving mechanism, or a ball screw driving mechanism.

[0089] In the embodiments of the present application, the first driver 142 drives the second seat body 12 to move along the first direction, so as to drive the pressing assembly 13 to move along the first direction. When the second seat body 12 moves to a preset position, the first driver 142 stops working, so as to lock the second seat body 12 at the preset position, thereby completing the position adjustment of the pressing assembly 13 along the first direction.

[0090] By using the above technical solution, the first driver 142 can drive the second seat body 12 to reciprocally move along the first direction, so as to adjust the relative position between the second seat body 12 and the assembling station 101 along the first direction, thereby facilitating the adjustment of the relative position between the pressing assembly 13 and the assembling station 101 along the first direction.

[0091] Of course, in other embodiments, the first position adjustment structure 14 can also be other structures capable of moving the second seat body 12 along the first direction and locking the second seat body 12 at any position along the first direction, such as a bolt positioning structure or a slide rail locking structure.

[0092] In some embodiments of the present application, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The second position adjusting structure 15 comprises a positioning member (not shown in the figure), a plurality of first positioning holes 151 formed in the second seat body 12, and a second positioning hole 152 formed in the pressure applying assembly 13.
