Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include at least one of that feature.

[0024] With the rapid development of renewable energy and portable electronic devices, the demand for button cells is increasing. Due to their small size and high energy density, button cells are widely used in watches, medical devices, and other small electronic products. To improve production efficiency and reduce labor costs, many manufacturers are beginning to adopt automated equipment for battery production and assembly.
[0025] Existing battery placement equipment mostly adopts a single conveyor track design. Although it achieves a certain degree of automation, some problems still exist in the production process. First, the single track design limits the flexibility of the battery fixtures and makes it impossible to efficiently handle multiple processes, resulting in low overall production line efficiency. Second, existing equipment often requires manual intervention during the transfer of battery fixtures, increasing labor costs and operational risks.
[0026] To address the aforementioned problems, this embodiment discloses a circulating tooling production line for button cell battery placement equipment, the structure of which is as follows: Figure 1 As shown, the circulating tooling production line includes a first conveying track 102, a second conveying track 103 arranged side by side with the first conveying track 102, a first lateral pushing mechanism 104 for pushing the battery fixture 101 along the length direction of the first conveying track 102, a second lateral pushing mechanism 107 for pushing the battery fixture 101 along the length direction of the second conveying track 103, a first vertical pushing mechanism 110 for pushing the battery fixture 101 from the first conveying track 102 to the second conveying track 103, and a second vertical pushing mechanism 113 for pushing the battery fixture 101 from the second conveying track 103 to the first conveying track 102.
[0027] In this embodiment, the first lateral pushing mechanism 104 includes a first linear actuator 105 whose output direction is parallel to the length direction of the first conveying track 102 and a first push plate 106 that slides along the length direction of the first conveying track 102. The first push plate 106 is connected to the output end of the first linear actuator 105.
[0028] The second lateral pushing mechanism 107 includes a second linear actuator 108 whose output direction is parallel to the length direction of the second conveying track 103 and a second push plate 109 that slides along the length direction of the second conveying track 103. The second push plate 109 is connected to the output end of the second linear actuator 108.
[0029] The first vertical pushing mechanism 110 includes a third linear actuator 111 whose output direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the first conveying track 102 and a third push plate 112 that slides along the length direction perpendicular to the first conveying track 102. The third push plate 112 is connected to the output end of the third linear actuator 111.
[0030] The second vertical pushing mechanism 113 includes a fourth linear actuator 114 whose output direction is perpendicular to the length direction of the second conveying track 103 and a fourth push plate 115 that slides along the length direction perpendicular to the second conveying track 103. The fourth push plate 115 is connected to the output end of the fourth linear actuator 114.
[0031] from Figure 1 As can be seen, the first conveying track 102 and the second conveying track 103 are arranged side by side to form a rectangular conveying structure. In the initial state, when the battery fixture 101 is placed near any of the pushing mechanisms, the pushing mechanism pushes the battery fixture 101 forward; then a new battery fixture 101 is placed in the original position, and this process is repeated until the first conveying track 102 and the second conveying track 103 are filled with battery fixtures 101. During this process, the previous battery fixture 101 pushes the next battery fixture 101 away to complete the subsequent battery placement process.
[0032] Furthermore, the circulating conveying mechanism 100 also includes a reverse pushing mechanism 116, which includes a fifth linear actuator 117 whose output direction is parallel to the length direction of the first conveying track 102 and a fifth push plate 118 that slides along the length direction of the first conveying track 102. The third push plate 112 is connected to the output end of the fifth linear actuator 117. One end of the first conveying track 102 is provided with a groove that is adapted to the shape of the fifth push plate 118, and the fifth push plate 118 is slidably connected in the groove.
[0033] In this embodiment, the first lateral pushing mechanism 104, the second lateral pushing mechanism 107, the first vertical pushing mechanism 110, and the second vertical pushing mechanism 113 cooperate with the reverse pushing mechanism 116 to achieve closed-loop cyclic conveying of the battery fixture 101, reducing fixture turnaround time and improving space utilization. Furthermore, the reverse pushing mechanism 116, through the cooperation of a sliding groove and the third push plate 112, ensures that the battery fixture 101 stably returns to its original position during the cycle, avoiding jamming. Preferably, the first linear actuator 105, the second linear actuator 108, the third linear actuator 111, the fourth linear actuator 114, and the fifth linear actuator 117 are cylinders.
[0034] In summary, the circulating tooling production line of the button battery placement equipment in this embodiment significantly improves the conveying efficiency of the battery fixture by setting up a parallel design of the first and second conveying tracks and combining the coordinated work of multiple pushing mechanisms. Specifically, the arrangement of the first and second lateral pushing mechanisms allows the battery fixture to flexibly switch between the two conveying tracks, avoiding the limitations of traditional single-track designs.
[0035] Furthermore, the introduction of the first and second vertical pushing mechanisms ensures the safe transfer of the battery fixture between different tracks, reducing the need for manual intervention and lowering labor costs and operational risks. Simultaneously, the overall structural design of the equipment is reasonable, effectively preventing battery damage during handling and improving product yield.
[0036] Finally, it should be noted that the above embodiments are only used to illustrate the technical solutions of this utility model, and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of this utility model. Although this utility model has been described in detail with reference to preferred embodiments, those skilled in the art should understand that modifications or equivalent substitutions can be made to the technical solutions of this utility model without departing from the essence and scope of the technical solutions of this utility model.
