Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of automated production equipment technology, and more specifically, to a mold reciprocating conveyor assembly. Background Technology
[0002] In the electronics manufacturing industry, mold conveying mechanisms are frequently used. The production process typically involves first placing the raw material into the mold, then using the mold conveying mechanism to transport the material to various processing stations. After processing at each station, the raw material is transformed into a finished product and removed from the mold. Finally, the mold returns to its initial position to await the insertion of a new raw material. This process is quite lengthy.
[0003] Currently, the battery mold (material plate) conveying mechanism used in the electrolyte injection process of button battery production employs a structure as shown in patent document CN201921037153.8, entitled "Button Battery Electrolyte Addition Device," to improve mold conveying efficiency. This device includes a workbench, frame, and material plate moving track. The material plate moving track is equipped with a first cylinder, a material plate pusher, a moving support plate, a first material plate stacking frame, an electrolyte needle box, an electrolyte sealing plate, an electrolyte delivery pipe, an electrolyte addition drive, a second material plate stacking frame, a lifting support plate, a second cylinder, a lifting auxiliary support plate, a hinge rod, and a movable support plate. A material tray track is set in the electrolyte needle box, and the electrolyte needle box is connected to the quantitative addition drive, realizing automated mechanical addition of electrolyte to the material tray. However, after the button battery completes the electrolyte addition in the above mechanism, it is not yet fully encapsulated; instead, it is stacked on the material plate before being conveyed to the next process. Therefore, during the transport process between the electrolyte injection and packaging stations, there is a risk of electrolyte overflow and leakage from the button battery.
[0004] In view of this, it is necessary to optimize the design of the mold conveying mechanism used in processes such as electrolyte injection of button batteries, so that after the electrolyte is added, the material plate (mold) of the button battery can be stably conveyed to the packaging station one by one to avoid leakage problems. Utility Model Content

[0006] The mold reciprocating conveying assembly includes a first mold tray, a second mold tray, and a translation driver. The first mold tray is slidably sleeved on a first slide rail. A second slide rail is provided below the first slide rail. A lifting bracket is slidably sleeved on the second slide rail. The second mold tray is installed on the top of the lifting bracket. The maximum height of the second mold tray is at the same horizontal plane as the first mold tray. The first mold tray and the second mold tray are respectively connected to translation drivers in opposite directions.

[0007] Furthermore, the first mold tray is connected to the lower left and right sides of the first slide rail, and the lifting bracket is connected to the lower left and right sides of the second slide rail, which is installed in the middle of the inner side of the two first slide rails.
[0008] Furthermore, the translation drive includes an annular belt perpendicular to the ground, a first mold tray fixedly connected to the upper side of the annular belt, a lifting bracket fixedly connected to the lower side of the annular belt, and a servo drive connected to the annular belt.
[0009] Furthermore, each end of the first slide rail is equipped with an inductive switch corresponding to the first mold tray, and the inductive switch is electrically connected to the servo driver.
[0010] Furthermore, the lifting bracket is equipped with a lifting push rod and multiple vertical slide rods. The top of the lifting push rod is connected to the bottom center of the second mold tray, and the vertical slide rods are symmetrically connected to the bottom of the second mold tray with the lifting push rod as the central axis. All the vertical slide rods are sleeved in linear bearings installed on the lifting bracket.
[0011] Furthermore, the lifting push rod includes a linkage rod, a guide wheel, and a lifting guide groove. The top of the linkage rod is connected to the bottom of the second mold tray. The guide wheel is installed at the bottom of the linkage rod and slidably sleeved in the lifting guide groove. The middle of the lifting guide groove is horizontal, and both ends are raised upward.
[0012] Furthermore, both the first mold tray and the second mold tray are vertically provided with positioning screw holes, and the product mold can be detachably installed on the first mold tray and the second mold tray through the cooperation of the positioning screw holes and the mating screws.

[0030] like Figure 1-5 As shown, this embodiment provides a mold reciprocating conveying assembly, including a first mold tray 1, a second mold tray 2, and a translation driver 6. The first mold tray 1 is slidably sleeved on a first slide rail 3. A second slide rail 4 is provided below the first slide rail 3. A lifting bracket 5 is slidably sleeved on the second slide rail 4. The second mold tray 2 is installed on the top of the lifting bracket 5. The maximum height of the second mold tray 2 is at the same horizontal plane as the first mold tray 1. The first mold tray 1 and the second mold tray 2 are respectively connected to translation drivers 6 in opposite directions. The first slide rail 3 and the second slide rail 4 are parallel to each other and have the same length.
[0031] In practical use, the two end pallets of this embodiment are first installed at the two ends of the two workstations that need to be transported, and the product mold 12 is installed at the same position on both pallets. In the standby state, the first mold pallet 1 and the second mold pallet 2 are located at the same height at both ends of the slide rail. When it is necessary to transport the product to the other end of the slide rail, the first mold pallet 1 and the second mold pallet 2 move to the other end simultaneously. During the movement, the second mold pallet 2 is driven by the lifting bracket 5 to descend below the first mold pallet 1, so that the second mold pallet 2 passes under the first mold pallet 1 and reaches the other end of the slide rail. Finally, the second mold pallet 2 returns to the same height as the first mold pallet 1 under the action of the lifting bracket 5.
[0032] The first mold tray 1 is connected to the lower left and right sides of the first slide rail 3, and the lifting bracket 5 is connected to the lower left and right sides of the second slide rail 4. The second slide rail 4 is installed in the middle of the inner side of the two first slide rails 3. The second slide rail 4 is set in the first slide rail 3 as a whole, so the equipment is compact and occupies little space.
[0033] The translation driver 6 includes an annular belt 601 perpendicular to the ground. A first mold tray 1 is fixedly connected to the upper side of the annular belt 601, and a lifting bracket 5 is fixedly connected to the lower side of the annular belt 601. A servo driver 602 is driven by the annular belt 601. Induction switches 7 are provided at both ends of the first slide rail 3 corresponding to the first mold tray 1, and the induction switches 7 are electrically connected to the servo driver 602. The two trays are connected to the same annular belt 601, ensuring synchronized, fast, and accurate movement, and a simple and efficient drive structure. The induction switches 7 can be commercially available photoelectric switches, and the servo driver 602 is a servo motor. A trigger piece 701 is provided at the bottom of the first mold tray 1, so that when the first mold tray 1 moves to the slide rail end corresponding to the induction switch 7, the servo motor can be triggered to reverse in time, achieving accurate reciprocating drive and preventing the tray from detaching from the slide rail and causing damage to the equipment structure.
[0034] The lifting support 5 is equipped with a lifting push rod 8 and multiple vertical slide rods 9. The top of the lifting push rod 8 is connected to the bottom center of the second mold tray 2, and the vertical slide rods 9 are symmetrically connected to the bottom of the second mold tray 2 with the lifting push rod 8 as the central axis. Each vertical slide rod 9 is sleeved in a linear bearing 10 installed on the lifting support 5. The lifting support 5, supported by the lifting push rod 8 and multiple vertical slide rods 9, has strong stability and can ensure that the second mold tray 2 will not shake when it moves up and down.
[0035] The lifting push rod 8 includes a linkage rod 801, a guide wheel 802, and a lifting guide groove 803. The top of the linkage rod 801 is connected to the bottom of the second mold tray 2. The guide wheel 802 is installed at the bottom of the linkage rod 801 and slidably sleeved in the lifting guide groove 803. The middle of the lifting guide groove 803 is horizontal, and both ends are raised upward. In this embodiment, the lifting push rod 8 moves up and down along the lifting guide groove 803 as the second mold tray 2 moves, eliminating the need for a motor or cylinder to push the lifting push rod 8. This results in low energy consumption and strong support stability of the equipment.
[0036] Both the first mold tray 1 and the second mold tray 2 are vertically provided with positioning screw holes 11. The product mold 12 is detachably installed on the first mold tray 1 and the second mold tray 2 through the engagement of the positioning screw holes 11 and the mating screws (not shown in the figure). The product mold 12, which is screwed to the tray, is easy to replace according to the product and has strong adaptability.
[0037] The first slide rail 3 and the second slide rail 4 are both fixedly mounted on the support base plate 13. The first slide rail 3 and the second slide rail 4, which are integrally mounted on the support base plate 13, do not need to be aligned when assembled into the equipment, which can improve the assembly efficiency of the equipment and ensure that the positioning between the first slide rail 3 and the second slide rail 4 is accurate and does not shift.
[0038] The above description is a further detailed explanation of the present utility model in conjunction with specific preferred embodiments. It should not be assumed that the specific implementation of the present utility model is limited to these descriptions. All equivalent changes and modifications made within the scope of this application should still fall within the scope of the present utility model.
