Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of this utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of this utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of this utility model.
[0031] In the description of this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "connected," "linked," and "fixed" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances.
[0032] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.
[0033] like Figure 1 As shown, this embodiment provides an automatic electrode plate detection device, including a frame 1, a detection module 2 disposed on the frame 1, a flipping module 3, and a material picking module 4. The material picking module 4 is used to grasp the first surface of the electrode plate. The flipping module 3 includes a crank-slider mechanism 33, a first chain drive mechanism 34, a first fixed frame 31 and a second fixed frame 32 fixed to each other. The material picking module 4 is rotatably connected to the second fixed frame 32. The crank-slider mechanism 33 includes a crank 331, a slider 332, and a connecting rod 333 hinged between the two. The slider 332 is slidably connected to the first fixed frame 31, and the crank 331 is rotatably connected to the first fixed frame 31. The first chain drive mechanism 34 includes a first chain 341, a first driving wheel and a first driven wheel. The first chain 341 is wound around the first driving wheel and the first driven wheel. The first driving wheel is sleeved and fixed on a rotating shaft. The crank 331 is rotatably connected to the first fixed frame 31 through the rotating shaft. The first driven wheel is fixed to the material picking module 4. The first driving component drives the slider 332 to slide, causing the crank 331 to rotate, and through the first chain transmission mechanism 34, it drives the material picking module 4 to flip, so that the second surface of the electrode plate opposite to the first surface faces the detection module 2 for detection.
[0034] For example, the first direction is the X direction, the second direction is the Y direction, and the third direction is the Z direction. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other, and the Z direction is the vertical direction.
[0035] The first fixed frame 31 is plate-shaped, and the first driving component is a cylinder. Both the cylinder and the crank-slider mechanism 33 are mounted on one side of the first fixed frame 31. The piston rod of the cylinder is connected to the slider 332, and the cylinder drives the slider 332 to move vertically. The connecting rod 333 drives the crank 331 and the shaft connected to the crank 331 to rotate around a centerline parallel to the X direction, thereby driving the first driving wheel to rotate. In turn, the first driven wheel is driven to rotate through the first chain 341. The rotation of the first driven wheel drives the material picking module 4, which is fixed to the first driven wheel, to rotate, that is, drives the material picking module 4 to rotate relative to the second fixed frame 32.
[0036] For example, the frame 1 is provided with a platform 11, the material picking module 4 picks up the electrode plate from the platform 11, the detection module 2 is located at the top of the frame 1, the platform 11 is located directly below the detection module 2, and the material picking module 4 is located between the platform 11 and the detection module 2. When the material picking module 4 picks up the material, the second surface is facing down, and the flipping module 3 drives the material picking module 4 to rotate 180°, that is, when the second surface of the electrode plate is facing up, the detection module 2 can detect the second surface. Specifically, according to calculation or experimentation, a crank-slider mechanism 33 is set to ensure that the first driving member drives the slider 332, and the crank 331 can rotate 180°.
[0037] The detection module 2 includes multiple industrial cameras, light sources, image processing devices, etc., used to photograph the electrode plate and identify defects. For details, please refer to the existing technology.
[0038] The flipping module 3 flips the material handling module 4 and the electrode plate on the material handling module 4, so that the second surface faces the detection module 2 for detection. Compared with the prior art, this method avoids the need to set up a separate flipping device to flip the electrode plate and then detect the surface of the electrode plate facing the detection module 2, simplifying the structure and detection steps, thereby improving detection efficiency and reducing costs.
[0039] The frame 1 has a base plate seat (not shown in the figure) on one side along the second direction. The automatic electrode plate detection device also includes a lifting module 6, and a flipping module 3 is located at the output end of the lifting module 6. Exemplarily, the lifting module 6 includes a base plate 61, a top plate 62, a guide column 63, and a lifting mechanism 64. The guide column 63 is fixed to the top plate 62 and slidably connected to the base plate 61. The base plate 61 is fixed to the base plate seat. The fixed end of the lifting mechanism 64 is installed on the base plate 61, and the output end is installed on the flipping module 3 via the top plate 62. The lifting mechanism 64 is existing technology, enabling vertical lifting of the top plate 62. The guide column 63 extends vertically to guide the top plate 62 vertically, ensuring vertical movement accuracy. The lifting module 6 lifts and lowers the flipping module 3 and the material handling module 4. During descent, it handles the electrode plates on the platform 11, and then rises, avoiding interference with the platform 11 during the flipping process.
[0040] The automatic electrode plate detection device also includes a moving module 5 and a flipping module 3. The moving module 5 transports the electrode plate to a preset position via the flipping module 3 and the picking module 4. After the detection module 2 detects the electrode plate, the flipping module 3 drives the picking module 4 to flip in the opposite direction. Then, the moving module 5 drives the flipping module 3, the picking module 4, and the electrode plate to move to the preset position for electrode plate unloading. Further, material boxes 7 are provided on both sides of the frame 1. The moving module 5 transports the electrode plate to either material box 7 via the flipping module 3 and the picking module 4. The two material boxes 7 are a qualified product box and a defective product box, respectively. The two material boxes 7 are located on both sides of the platform 11 of the frame 1 along the first direction. When the detection module 2 detects that the electrode plate is qualified, the moving module 5 drives the flipping module 3, the picking module 4, and the electrode plate to move forward to the qualified product box for unloading. When the detection module 2 detects that the electrode plate is unqualified, the moving module 5 drives the flipping module 3, the picking module 4, and the electrode plate to move in the opposite direction to the defective product box for unloading.
[0041] Exemplarily, the moving module 5 includes a moving base 51 and a second chain drive mechanism 52. The flipping module 3 is disposed on the moving base 51. In this embodiment, the flipping module 3 is installed at the output end of the lifting module 6, and the lifting module 6 is installed on the moving base 51. The second chain drive mechanism 52 includes a second chain 521, a second driving wheel (not shown in the figure), and a second driven wheel (not shown in the figure). The second chain 521 is wound around the second driving wheel and the second driven wheel. The second driving wheel and the second driven wheel are rotatably connected to the base plate of the frame 1. The moving base 51 is connected to the second chain 521. A second driving member drives the second driving wheel, causing the moving base 51 to move with the second chain 521 on the base plate. The second driving member is such as a motor. Optionally, the second chain drive mechanism 52 also includes a guide wheel 522, which cooperates with the second chain 521 to guide the path of the second chain 521 during transmission and ensure the stable operation of the second chain 521.
[0042] Furthermore, the base plate is provided with a guide rail 53, and the moving trolley is slidably connected to the guide rail 53 via a sliding block. Alternatively, the moving trolley is provided with rollers, and the moving trolley is slidably connected to the guide groove of the guide rail 53 via the rollers. The moving resistance of the moving trolley is reduced by the above two methods.
[0043] Optionally, the automatic electrode plate detection device further includes a transfer module for transferring the electrode plate to the stage 11. Exemplarily, the transfer module includes a belt conveyor and a robot arm; the belt conveyor transports the electrode plate along the second direction, and the robot arm transfers the electrode plate from the belt conveyor to the stage 11. Specifically, the substrate holder and the transfer module are located on opposite sides of the frame 1 along the second direction to avoid structural interference.
[0044] The second fixing frame 32 includes two mounting rods 321 symmetrically arranged along a vertical plane. The two mounting rods 321 are installed on both sides of the first fixing frame 31 along a first direction. The material picking module 4 includes a transfer plate 41, a first driven wheel connected to the transfer plate 41, a suction cup 42 and two transfer blocks 43 mounted on the transfer plate 41, and the two transfer blocks 43 are rotatably connected to the two mounting rods 321, such as through a rotating pin. The suction cup 42 is used to adsorb the first surface of the electrode plate. After the suction cup 42 adsorbs the electrode plate, the first driven wheel of the flipping module 3 drives the transfer plate 41 and the transfer blocks 43 on the transfer plate 41 to rotate relative to the mounting rods 321. By setting two mounting rods 321 and two transfer blocks 43, the rotation of the material picking module 4 is ensured to be smooth and reliable.
[0045] The material handling module 4 includes a fixing block 44 fixed to the adapter plate 41. The fixing block 44 is located between two adapter blocks 43. A first driven wheel is fixed to the fixing block 44 via a fixing shaft. Furthermore, there are two fixing blocks 44, with the fixing shaft installed between the two fixing blocks 44. The first driven wheel is also installed between the two fixing blocks 44, serving to limit its movement. By positioning the fixing block 44 between the two adapter blocks 43, i.e., at the middle position of the adapter plate 41, the force on the adapter plate 41 is ensured to be even, further ensuring the smooth and reliable rotation of the material handling module 4.
[0046] Optionally, the automatic electrode plate detection device also includes an industrial control computer and other mechanisms. The detection module 2, moving module 5, flipping module 3, and lifting module 6 are all communicatively connected to the industrial control computer. For example, the industrial control computer controls the lifting module 6 to descend and controls the suction cup 42 to apply negative pressure to pick up the electrode plate. Then, the industrial control computer drives the flipping module 3 to flip, so that the second surface of the electrode plate faces the detection module 2, and the detection module 2 detects the second surface. If the detection module 2 detects that the electrode plate is qualified, it sends a feedback signal to the industrial control computer, which then controls the moving module 5 to move it in one direction, allowing the electrode plate to fall into the qualified product box. Conversely, if the detection module 2 detects that the electrode plate is unqualified, the moving module 5 causes the electrode plate to fall into the unqualified product box, thereby achieving automatic control.
[0047] Obviously, the above embodiments of this utility model are merely examples for clearly illustrating the present utility model, and are not intended to limit the implementation of the present utility model. Those skilled in the art can make other variations or modifications based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here.
