Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of cleaning and coating machine technology, and in particular to a cleaning and coating machine for battery casings. Background Technology

[0002] The cleaning and coating machine is used for cleaning and coating the surface of battery casings. It consists of a worktable, gantry frame, motor assembly, lead screw assembly, moving platform, mounting plate, plasma cleaner, coating gun, base, placement plate, and clamps. When using the machine, the worker places the battery casing on the placement plate and secures it with clamps. Then, motor one on the gantry frame on the worktable is started, causing lead screw one to rotate and move the moving platform onto the battery casing. Next, motor two is started, causing lead screw two to rotate and lower the mounting plate, bringing the plasma cleaner into contact with the battery casing. The plasma cleaner is then activated, using high-frequency electromagnetic fields or microwave radiation to excite the working gas into a plasma state. The excited gas molecules... Under the influence of an electric field, collisions and ionization occur, further forming plasma. The active substances in the plasma gain energy under the influence of the electric field, forming a high-speed particle stream. This high-speed particle stream collides with the surface of the battery casing, producing physical and chemical reactions. These two reactions work together to achieve efficient cleaning of the battery casing surface. Motor 3 is activated, causing the lead screw 3 to rotate, which moves the placement plate on the base. After cleaning the battery casing, motors 3 and 1 are restarted to clean the next area until cleaning is complete. The motors work evenly with the encoder. After cleaning, following the movement steps described above, glue is applied to the battery casing using a glue gun to achieve the desired glue application effect.

[0003] The inventors discovered in their daily work that when using the cleaning and coating machine, the battery casing is held by two jaws on the clamp, and the screw needs to be turned manually to bring the two jaws closer together. Because the screw is turned manually, the jaws can easily clamp the battery casing too tightly. Since the jaws are in rigid contact with the battery casing, this may cause damage to the battery casing. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to solve the problem that in actual use, the battery casing is clamped by two jaws on a clamp, and the screw needs to be manually turned to bring the two jaws closer together. Because the screw is turned manually, the jaws can easily clamp the battery casing too tightly. Due to the rigid contact between the jaws and the battery casing, the battery casing may be damaged. Therefore, this invention proposes a battery casing cleaning and coating machine.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model adopts the following technical solution: a battery casing cleaning and coating machine, comprising a workbench, a gantry frame fixedly connected to the upper end of the workbench, a movable platform slidably connected to the inner wall of the gantry frame, a lead screw first provided on the inner wall of the gantry frame, a motor first installed on the left end of the gantry frame, the output end of the motor first being fixed to the lead screw first, the lead screw first being threadedly connected to the movable platform, a mounting plate slidably connected to the inner wall of the movable platform, a lead screw second provided on the inner wall of the movable platform, the mounting plate being threadedly connected to the lead screw second, a motor second installed at the upper end of the movable platform, the output end of the motor second being fixed to the lead screw second, and the mounting plate... A plasma cleaner is mounted on the front. A base is fixedly connected to the upper end of the worktable. A placement plate is slidably connected to the inner wall of the base. A lead screw is provided on the inner wall of the base, and the lead screw is threadedly connected to the placement plate. A motor is mounted on the front of the base, and the output end of the motor is fixed to the lead screw. A clamping assembly is provided on the upper end of the placement plate. An adhesive application assembly is provided on the upper end of the worktable. The clamping assembly includes U-shaped clamps on both sides of the upper end of the placement plate. A U-shaped airbag is installed on one side of the U-shaped clamp. An air intake drive mechanism is provided on the upper end of the placement plate. The air intake drive mechanism is used to drive the U-shaped clamps to move and inflate the U-shaped airbag.

[0006] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: by setting up a clamping assembly, when it is necessary to clamp the battery casing, the battery casing is placed between two U-shaped clamps. Through the air intake drive mechanism, the U-shaped clamps on both sides are brought closer together to clamp the battery casing. At the same time, the U-shaped airbag is inflated to make it bulge, thereby avoiding rigid contact between the battery casing and the U-shaped clamps, thus minimizing manual labor and reducing damage to the battery casing.

[0007] Preferably, the intake drive mechanism includes a slide groove formed on the upper end of the placement plate, a lead screw four is provided on the inner wall of the slide groove, the threads at both ends of the lead screw four are opposite, a slider is slidably connected to the inner wall of the slide groove, the slider is threadedly connected to the lead screw four, and the slider is fixed to the U-shaped clamp.

[0008] The effect achieved by the above components is that the lead screw in the groove rotates, causing the sliders on both sides to move closer to each other, thereby causing the U-shaped clamps on both sides to move closer to each other.

[0009] Preferably, a circular cover is fixedly connected to the left end of the placement plate, a wind turbine is provided on the inner wall of the circular cover, the wind turbine is fixed to the lead screw, and an air pump is installed at the other end of the circular cover.

[0010] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: when the air pump is started, air is blown into the circular cover, causing the wind turbine to rotate, which in turn drives the lead screw in the slide to rotate. When the air pump draws in air, the wind turbine rotates in the opposite direction.

[0011] Preferably, an air tube is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide, and the air tube passes through the slider and is fixed to the U-shaped airbag.

[0012] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: starting the air pump causes air to be blown into the circular cover, which inflates the U-shaped airbag through the air tube.

[0013] Preferably, the adhesive application assembly includes a fixing block and an injection tube fixedly connected to the front of the mounting plate. A piston is provided on the inner wall of the injection tube, and an electric telescopic rod is installed at the upper end of the fixing block. The output end of the electric telescopic rod is fixed to the piston.

[0014] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: the injection tube is filled with glue, the electric telescopic rod on the fixing block is activated, which pushes the piston to squeeze out the glue, thereby applying glue to the battery casing.

[0015] Preferably, a glue bucket is fixedly connected to the upper end of the workbench, and a glue tube is fixedly connected between the glue bucket and the injection tube.

[0016] The effect achieved by the above components is as follows: when the glue bucket is filled with glue and the piston is pulled upward, the glue in the glue bucket enters the injection tube through the glue tube, thus facilitating the filling of the injection tube with glue.

[0017] Preferably, a one-way valve is provided at the lower end of the injection tube, and a two-way valve is installed on the arc surface of the glue tube.

[0018] The effects achieved by the above components are as follows: by setting one-way valve one, the fluid in the injection tube can flow to the outside, but not vice versa; by setting one-way valve two, the fluid in the glue bucket can flow to the injection tube, but not vice versa.

[0019] Preferably, the glue bucket is fitted with a lid at the top.

[0020] The effect achieved by the above components is to remove the lid, thereby filling the glue bucket with glue.

[0021] In summary, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows:

[0022] In this invention, by setting up a clamping assembly, when it is necessary to clamp the battery casing, the battery casing is placed between two U-shaped clamping plates. Through the air intake drive mechanism, the U-shaped clamping plates on both sides are brought closer together to clamp the battery casing. At the same time, the U-shaped airbag is inflated, thus avoiding rigid contact between the battery casing and the U-shaped clamping plates. This minimizes manual labor and reduces damage to the battery casing. It solves the problem that when the battery casing is clamped by two jaws on a fixture, and the screws need to be turned manually to bring the two jaws closer together, the jaws may clamp the battery casing too tightly due to the manual turning of the screws, which may cause damage to the battery casing due to rigid contact between the jaws and the battery casing.

A U-shaped airbag 22 is installed on one side of the U-shaped clamping plate 21. An air intake drive mechanism 23 is disposed at the upper end of the placement plate 13. The air intake drive mechanism 23 is used to drive the U-shaped clamping plates 21 to move and inflate the U-shaped airbag 22. When it is necessary to clamp the battery casing, the battery casing is placed between the two U-shaped clamping plates 21. Through the air intake drive mechanism 23, the U-shaped clamping plates 21 on both sides are brought closer to each other to clamp the battery casing. At the same time, the U-shaped airbag 22 is inflated to prevent rigid contact between the battery casing and the U-shaped clamping plates 21, thereby minimizing manual labor and reducing damage to the battery casing. The air intake drive mechanism 23 includes a groove 231 opened at the upper end of the placement plate 13. A lead screw 233 is disposed on the inner wall of the groove 231. The threads at both ends of the lead screw 233 are opposite. A slider 23 is slidably connected to the inner wall of the groove 231. 2. The slider 232 is threadedly connected to the lead screw 233. The slider 232 is fixed to the U-shaped clamp 21.

A circular cover 234 is fixedly connected to the left end of the placement plate 13. A wind turbine 235 is provided on the inner wall of the circular cover 234. The wind turbine 235 is fixed to the lead screw 233. An air pump 236 is installed at the other end of the circular cover 234. When the air pump 236 is started, air is blown into the circular cover 234, causing the wind turbine 235 to rotate, which in turn drives the lead screw 233 in the slide groove 231 to rotate. When the air pump 236 draws in air, the wind turbine 235 rotates in the opposite direction. An air pipe 237 is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the slide groove 231. The air pipe 237 passes through the slider 232 and is fixed to the U-shaped airbag 22.

[0031] Reference Figure 3As shown, in this embodiment: the glue application assembly 3 includes a fixing block 31 and an injection tube 32 fixedly connected to the front of the mounting plate 8. A piston 33 is provided on the inner wall of the injection tube 32. An electric telescopic rod 34 is installed on the upper end of the fixing block 31. The output end of the electric telescopic rod 34 is fixed to the piston 33. When glue is loaded into the injection tube 32, the electric telescopic rod 34 on the fixing block 31 is activated, which pushes the piston 33 to squeeze out the glue, thereby applying glue to the battery casing. A glue tank 35 is fixedly connected to the upper end of the workbench 1. A glue tube 37 is fixedly connected between the glue tank 35 and the injection tube 32. The glue tank 35 is filled with glue. When the piston 33 is pulled upward, the glue in the glue bucket 35 enters the injection tube 32 through the glue tube 37, making it convenient to fill the injection tube 32 with glue. The lower end of the injection tube 32 is equipped with a one-way valve 38, and the arc surface of the glue tube 37 is equipped with a one-way valve 39. By setting the one-way valve 38, the fluid in the injection tube 32 can flow outward, but not vice versa. By setting the one-way valve 39, the fluid in the glue bucket 35 can flow into the injection tube 32, but not vice versa. The upper end of the glue bucket 35 is equipped with a cap 36. By removing the cap 36, the glue bucket 35 can be filled with glue.

[0032] Working principle:

[0033] When using the cleaning and coating machine, the worker places the battery casing on the placement plate 13 and secures it with clamps. Then, the motor 7 on the gantry 4 of the worktable 1 is started, causing the lead screw 6 to rotate, moving the moving platform 5 onto the battery casing. Next, the motor 10 is started, causing the lead screw 9 to rotate, lowering the mounting plate 8 and bringing the plasma cleaner 11 into contact with the battery casing. The plasma cleaner 11 is then started (the plasma cleaner 11 is a commercially available product, and its specific working principle is existing technology and will not be detailed here). Through high-frequency electromagnetic fields or microwave radiation, the working gas is excited into a plasma state. The excited gas molecules collide and... Ionization further forms plasma. The active materials in the plasma gain energy under the influence of the electric field, forming a high-speed particle stream. This high-speed particle stream collides with the surface of the battery casing, producing physical and chemical reactions. These two reactions work together to achieve efficient cleaning of the battery casing surface. Motor 3 (15) is activated, causing the lead screw 3 (14) to rotate, which moves the placement plate 13 on the base 12. After cleaning the battery casing, motors 3 (15) and 7 (7) are restarted to clean the next area until cleaning is complete. The motors work evenly with the encoder. After cleaning, following the movement steps described above, adhesive is applied to the battery casing using a glue gun, thus achieving coating... The adhesive effect is achieved when the battery casing needs to be clamped. The battery casing is placed between two U-shaped clamps 21, and the air pump 236 is activated, blowing air into the circular cover 234. This causes the turbine 235 to rotate, which in turn drives the lead screw 233 in the slide groove 231 to rotate (when the air pump 236 draws air, the turbine 235 can rotate in the opposite direction). This brings the sliders 232 on both sides closer together, thus bringing the U-shaped clamps 21 closer together to clamp the battery casing. Simultaneously, the air pump 236 blows air into the circular cover 234, which, through the air pipe 237, inflates the U-shaped airbag 22, preventing rigid contact between the battery casing and the U-shaped clamps 21, and thus minimizing the impact on the battery casing. This reduces manpower and minimizes damage to the battery casing. The injection tube 32 is filled with glue, and the electric telescopic rod 34 on the fixing block 31 is activated, pushing the piston 33 to squeeze out the glue, thus applying glue to the battery casing. The glue bucket 35 is filled with glue. When the piston 33 is pulled upwards, the glue in the glue bucket 35 enters the injection tube 32 through the glue tube 37, facilitating the filling of the injection tube 32 with glue. A one-way valve 38 allows the fluid in the injection tube 32 to flow outwards, while a two-way valve 39 allows the fluid in the glue bucket 35 to flow into the injection tube 32, and vice versa. The cap 36 is removed to fill the glue bucket 35 with glue.
