[0002] With the explosive growth of the new energy vehicle market and the continuous advancement of battery technology, the generation of waste lithium batteries has increased significantly, providing an ample source of raw materials for the lithium battery recycling industry. The widespread application of advanced recycling equipment and technologies has improved the efficiency and quality of waste lithium battery recycling, promoting the green and low-carbon development of the lithium battery industry. The tabs are a crucial component of lithium batteries, located at the positive and negative terminals of the cell, responsible for current transmission during charging and discharging. The cleanliness of the tab surface directly affects the battery's conductivity and safety.

[0003] In the process of lithium battery recycling, lithium batteries need to be disassembled and reassembled, and the tabs of lithium batteries need to be cleaned for subsequent use. In the current technology, manual cleaning is cumbersome and the number of batteries that can be cleaned at one time is limited, which needs to be improved.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to propose a device for automatically cleaning the electrode tabs to solve the above problems. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide a device for automatically cleaning the electrode tabs, so as to solve the problems that manual cleaning is cumbersome and the number of electrodes that can be cleaned at one time is limited, which need to be improved.

[0007] The clamping mechanism includes two limiting strips, which are distributed along the width of the conveyor belt and have a gap between them. Support blocks are fixed to the bottom ends of the two limiting strips on opposite sides. A battery plate is clamped between the two support blocks. A tab is provided on one side of the battery plate and extends between two cleaning brushes. One end of one of the limiting strips is fixed with a protruding end that extends between the two cleaning brushes.

[0008] Preferably, the height of the protruding end is flush with the height of the electrode tab, and the limiting strip is elastic.

[0009] Preferably, multiple clamping mechanisms are provided, and the multiple clamping mechanisms are distributed at equal intervals along the length direction of the conveyor belt.

[0010] Preferably, a collection box is provided at one end of the upper fixing plate and the lower fixing plate, and one side of the collection box is fixed to one side inside the conveyor frame.

[0011] Preferably, both ends of the conveyor frame are rotatably connected to conveyor rollers, the conveyor belt is connected between the two conveyor rollers, a motor is fixed on one side of the conveyor frame, and the drive shaft of the motor is fixedly connected to the end of one of the conveyor rollers.

[0013] The technical effects and advantages of this utility model are as follows:

[0014] 1. In the actual operation of this utility model, when the conveyor belt moves, it can simultaneously drive the clamped battery panel to move and transport. The battery panel is placed between two limiting strips, and the tabs of the battery panel are placed facing the cleaning brush. Due to the fixation of the two limiting strips, when the battery panel moves and transports with the conveyor belt, the upper and lower surfaces of the tabs of the battery panel will contact the two cleaning brushes respectively, thereby brushing away the residual lead paste on the battery panel and automatically completing the cleaning work.

[0015] 2. Furthermore, as the solar panel moves along the conveyor belt, the lead paste brushed down by the two cleaning brushes will fall onto the cleaning brushes. Since the limiting strip moves with the conveyor belt, the protruding end of one end of the limiting strip will move the lead paste falling onto the cleaning brushes and finally push it into the collection box, automatically completing the collection work.

[0022] This utility model provides, for example Figures 1-5 The device shown includes an automatic cleaning device for the electrode tab position, comprising a conveyor frame 1 and a conveyor belt 2 disposed inside the conveyor frame 1. An upper fixing plate 3 and a lower fixing plate 6 are fixed along the length direction on one side inside the conveyor frame 1. The lower fixing plate 6 is disposed below the upper fixing plate 3. A gap is left between the upper fixing plate 3 and the lower fixing plate 6. A cleaning brush 12 is fixed on the opposite side of the upper fixing plate 3 and the lower fixing plate 6. A clamping mechanism is fixed on the outer surface of the conveyor belt 2, and a battery plate 5 is clamped on the clamping mechanism.

[0023] Both ends of the conveyor frame 1 are rotatably connected to conveyor rollers. The conveyor belt 2 is driven between the two conveyor rollers. A motor 11 is fixed on one side of the conveyor frame 1. The drive shaft of the motor 11 is fixedly connected to the end of one of the conveyor rollers.

[0024] In actual operation of this utility model, after the motor 11 is started, it can drive the conveyor belt 2 to move. The clamping mechanism can fix and clamp the battery panel 5. When the conveyor belt 2 moves, it can simultaneously drive the clamped battery panel 5 to move and transport.

[0025] The clamping mechanism includes two limiting bars 4, which are distributed along the width direction of the conveyor belt 2 and have a gap between them. Support blocks 9 are fixed to the bottom of the opposite side of each of the two limiting bars 4. A battery plate 5 is clamped between the two support blocks 9. A tab 8 is provided on one side of the battery plate 5 and extends between two cleaning brushes 12. One end of one of the limiting bars 4 is fixed with an extension end 7, which extends between the two cleaning brushes 12.

[0026] In the actual operation of this utility model, the battery panel 5 can be placed between two limiting strips 4, and the tabs 8 of the battery panel 5 can be placed facing the cleaning brush 12. Due to the fixation of the two limiting strips 4, when the battery panel 5 moves and is transported with the conveyor belt 2, the upper and lower surfaces of the tabs 8 of the battery panel 5 will contact the two cleaning brushes 12 respectively, thereby brushing away the residual lead paste on the battery panel 5 and automatically completing the cleaning work.

[0027] Furthermore, as the battery panel 5 moves with the conveyor belt 2, the lead paste brushed down by the two cleaning brushes 12 will fall onto the cleaning brushes 12. Since the limiting strip 4 moves with the conveyor belt 2, the protruding end 7 of one end of the limiting strip 4 will move the lead paste falling onto the cleaning brush 12 and finally push it into the collection box 10, automatically completing the collection work.

[0028] The height of the protruding end 7 is flush with the height of the tab 8. The limiting strip 4 is elastic to prevent the limiting strip 4 from blocking when the conveyor belt 2 is bent.

[0029] Multiple clamping mechanisms are provided, and the multiple clamping mechanisms are distributed at equal distances along the length of the conveyor belt 2. Multiple battery panels 5 can be clamped and cleaned at one time. A collection box 10 is provided at one end of the upper fixed plate 3 and the lower fixed plate 6. One side of the collection box 10 is fixed to one side inside the conveyor frame 1, and the bottom end of the protruding end 7 is attached to the cleaning brush 12 on the lower fixed plate 6.
