Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of battery box processing equipment, specifically relating to an automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of a new energy aluminum battery box. Background Technology

[0002] With the development of the new energy industry, aluminum battery boxes, as important energy storage devices, are crucial to the industry's development in terms of production efficiency and product quality. However, the traditional loading and positioning of aluminum battery box base plates largely relies on manual operation, which is not only labor-intensive and inefficient, but also suffers from inconsistent positioning accuracy due to human factors, thus affecting the welding qualification rate. While some automated loading equipment for aluminum battery box base plates exists on the market, these devices mostly employ complex control systems and sensors, resulting in high costs and difficult maintenance. Furthermore, although some equipment can achieve automated loading, low positioning accuracy leads to unstable welding quality and a failure to meet required qualification rates. Utility Model Content

[0003] The technical problem to be solved by this utility model is to provide an automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of a new energy aluminum battery box, which improves positioning accuracy and production efficiency and ensures a 100% welding qualification rate, in light of the current state of the technology.

[0004] The technical solution adopted by this utility model to solve the above-mentioned technical problems is as follows: an automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of a new energy aluminum battery box, characterized in that it includes a main frame, a lifting frame, a trolley loading device, four positioning devices, a lifting guide rail, and a driving device. There is an installation space between the main frame and the lifting frame for the trolley loading device to push in. Multiple aluminum battery box bottom plates are placed on the trolley loading device. The positioning devices are installed around the lifting frame and can position the aluminum battery box bottom plates. The driving device is installed on the main frame and connected to the lifting frame. The lifting frame is sleeved on the lifting guide rail, and the driving device can drive the lifting frame to move up and down along the lifting guide rail.

[0005] In the above-mentioned automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of a new energy aluminum battery box, the driving device includes a drive motor and a linkage rod. One end of the linkage rod is connected to the lifting frame, and the other end is connected to the drive motor. The drive motor drives the lifting frame to move up and down through the linkage rod.

[0006] In the above-mentioned automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of a new energy aluminum battery box, the positioning device includes a positioning cylinder and positioning components. A positioning push plate is provided between the positioning cylinder and the positioning components. Two positioning components are installed at both ends of the positioning push plate and can grip the edge of the bottom plate of the aluminum battery box.

[0007] In the above-mentioned automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of a new energy aluminum battery box, a limit stop is provided at the middle position of the positioning push plate.

[0008] In the aforementioned automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of a new energy aluminum battery box, the positioning cylinder is divided into a front push cylinder, a rear push cylinder, a front side push cylinder, and a rear side push cylinder. The front push cylinder, the rear push cylinder, the front side push cylinder, and the rear side push cylinder are all connected to the positioning push plate and can grip and position the edge of the bottom plate of the aluminum battery box from four directions.

[0009] Compared with existing technologies, the advantages of this utility model are: improved positioning accuracy: through a precisely designed mechanical structure, the accurate positioning of the aluminum battery box bottom plate during the feeding process is ensured, without relying on complex control systems and sensors; improved production efficiency: the automated feeding and positioning process greatly reduces the time and labor intensity of manual operation, thus improving production efficiency; improved welding qualification rate: precise positioning ensures the stability of welding quality, enabling a 100% welding qualification rate; and reduced costs: relying solely on the mechanical structure design reduces the manufacturing cost of the equipment, while also reducing subsequent maintenance costs. Attached Figure Description

[0010] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the automatic feeding and positioning device for the bottom plate of the new energy aluminum battery box. Detailed Implementation

[0011] The following are specific embodiments of the present invention, which are described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings. However, the present invention is not limited to these embodiments.

[0012] In the diagram, the main frame is 100; the lifting frame is 200; the trolley loading device is 300; the lifting guide rail is 400; the aluminum battery box base plate is 500; the positioning cylinder is 600; the positioning component is 700; the positioning push plate is 800; the limit stop is 900; the drive motor is 1000; and the linkage rod is 1001.

[0013] like Figure 1As shown, this automatic feeding and positioning device for aluminum battery box bottom plates includes a main frame 100, a lifting frame 200, a trolley loading device 300, four positioning devices, a lifting guide rail 400, and a drive device. There is an installation space between the main frame 100 and the lifting frame 200 for the trolley loading device 300 to push in. Multiple aluminum battery box bottom plates 500 are placed on the trolley loading device 300, allowing them to be placed into the installation space. The positioning devices are installed around the lifting frame 200 and can position the aluminum battery box bottom plates 500. The positioning device includes a positioning cylinder 600 and positioning components 700. A positioning push plate 800 is provided between the positioning cylinder 600 and the positioning components 700. Two positioning components 700 are installed at both ends of the positioning push plate 800 and can grip the edge of the aluminum battery box bottom plate 500. In this patent, the positioning cylinder 600 is divided into a front push cylinder, a rear push cylinder, a front side push cylinder, and a rear side push cylinder. The front push cylinder, the rear push cylinder, the front side push cylinder, and the rear side push cylinder are all connected to the positioning push plate 800 and can grip the edge of the aluminum battery box bottom plate 500 from four directions for positioning. This is achieved through a precisely designed mechanical system. The structure ensures accurate positioning of the aluminum battery box base plate 500 during the feeding process, eliminating the need for complex control systems and sensors and improving production efficiency. Additionally, a limit stop 900 is installed in the middle of the positioning push plate 800 to ensure the positioning of the aluminum battery box base plate 500 around its perimeter, thus guaranteeing accurate gripping. Furthermore, the drive unit is mounted on the main frame 100 and connected to the lifting frame 200, which is sleeved on the lifting guide rail 400. The drive unit includes a drive motor 1000 and a linkage rod 1001, one end of which is connected to the lifting frame 200. One end is connected to the drive motor 1000. The drive motor 1000 drives the lifting frame 200 to move up and down through the linkage rod 1001. The drive device can drive the lifting frame 200 to move up and down along the lifting guide rail 400. When the drive motor 1000 moves, it drives the linkage rod 1001 to rotate. Since the linkage rod 1001 is connected to the lifting frame 200 and the lifting frame 200 is sleeved on the lifting guide rail 400, the rotation of the linkage rod 1001 allows the lifting frame 200 to move along the lifting guide rail 400, thereby accurately grabbing the aluminum battery box bottom plate and transporting it to the welding station.

[0014] The specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative examples of the spirit of this utility model. Those skilled in the art to which this utility model pertains may make various modifications to the described specific embodiments or adopt similar methods to replace them, but without departing from the scope defined by the spirit of this utility model.
