Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0034] Please see Figures 2-3 The present invention provides a lithium battery drying device, comprising:

[0035] Main components: The main components include a workbench 11, a drying chamber 12, and a slide rail 13;

[0036] The drying chamber 12 is fixedly connected to the top of the workbench 11, and the slide rail 13 is fixedly connected to both sides of the inner wall of the drying chamber 12.

[0037] The drying chamber 12 provides space for drying lithium batteries, and the slide rail 13 provides space for guiding the sliding of the placement plate 21.

[0038] When placing the lithium battery on the placement plate 21 and pushing it into the drying chamber 12 for drying, the placement plate 21 can be guided to slide inside the slide rail 13.

[0039] All of the above parts are existing technologies;

[0040] Clamping assembly: The clamping assembly includes a placement plate 21, a hydraulic rod 22, a rack 24, and a slot 25;

[0041] The placement plate 21 is slidably connected to the inside of the slide rail 13, the hydraulic rod 22 is fixedly connected to the upper front end of the workbench 11, the rack 24 is fixedly connected to the rear inner wall of the drying chamber 12, and the slots 25 are opened at both ends of the rear part of the placement plate 21.

[0042] The clamping assembly also includes a clamping plate 23, a rotating gear 26, a slide 27, a threaded rod 28, and a screw block 29;

[0043] The slide groove 27 is opened at the top of the placement plate 21, the threaded rod 28 is rotatably connected to the inside of the slide groove 27, the screw block 29 is threadedly connected to the outside of the threaded rod 28, the rotating gear 26 is fixedly connected to one end of the threaded rod 28, the clamping plate 23 is fixedly connected to the top of the screw block 29, and the rotating gear 26 and the rack 24 are meshing.

[0044] The placement plate 21 is used to open the slot 25 and the slide 27. The slot 25 is used to provide space for the rack 24 to be inserted, and the slide 27 is used to provide space for the screw block 29 to slide. The screw block 29 and the threaded rod 28 are set on the same central axis. The rotating gear 26 is rotatably connected to the inside of the slot 25. The rotating gear 26 and the rack 24 are set on the same central axis. The rack 24 can be adjusted in length according to different specifications of lithium batteries.

[0045] With the auxiliary cooperation between the hydraulic rod 22 and the placement plate 21, the placement plate 21 can slide into the drying chamber 12, while driving the two sets of clamping plates 23 to slide, thereby assisting in clamping the lithium battery placed on the placement plate 21.

[0046] Working principle: When staff are drying the same batch of lithium batteries;

[0047] First, the staff places the lithium battery on top of the placement plate 21 and starts the hydraulic rod 22 to move the placement plate 21 along the track of the slide rail 13 into the drying chamber 12. When the placement plate 21 stops sliding, the rack 24 on the same track can be inserted into the slot 25 and the rack 24 and the rotating gear 26 can be engaged.

[0048] Next, the rotating gear 26 can be rotated inside the slot 25, which will drive the threaded rod 28 to rotate. The screw block 29 can be guided and slid along the threaded track outside the threaded rod 28 inside the slide groove 27, thereby driving the clamping plate 23 installed at the top to slide and forming a clamp on both sides of the lithium battery.

[0049] This step helps staff to quickly and automatically limit the lithium battery, making it easier for them to pick up and remove the battery, thus achieving a convenient operation.

[0050] Please see Figure 4-5 As shown, this embodiment, based on the above embodiment, also includes:

[0051] The drying assembly includes a drying chamber 31, a motor 32, a turntable 33, a connecting rod 34, and a sleeve plate 35;

The guide frame 310 is used to provide space for the toothed plate 39 to slide. The toothed plate 39 and the fixed gear 37 are set on the same motion trajectory.

[0056] With the auxiliary cooperation between the turntable 33 and the motor 32, the hot air blower 38 can be rotated while the turntable 33 swings and rotates, and the two sets of fan rods 36 can be rotated.

[0057] Working principle: When the staff dries the lithium battery;

[0058] First, the operator starts the motor 32, which causes the output shaft of the motor 32 to drive the turntable 33 to rotate through the coupling. The rotation of the turntable 33 causes the connecting rod 34, which is fixedly connected at one end, to rotate. The connecting rod 34 is sleeved with a sleeve plate 35, which allows the turntable 33 to rotate while driving the sleeve plate 35 to slide repeatedly.

[0059] Next, the hot air blower 38 installed at one end of the connecting rod 34 swings as the turntable 33 rotates, which allows the toothed plates 39 installed at both ends of the sleeve 35 to slide repeatedly inside the guide frame 310 and engage with the fixed gear 37, thereby driving the fan rod 36 to rotate.

[0060] This step helps workers to dry lithium batteries evenly, while avoiding drying in one direction and achieving alternating hot and cold drying to prevent damage to the exterior of the lithium battery, while also achieving energy saving and low consumption.

[0061] Although the present invention has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present invention should be included within the protection scope of the present invention.
