The bottom end of the through hole is connected to the liquid injection position of the lithium battery. The top end of the through hole is a liquid injection port. An open rubber sheet is installed at the liquid injection port. The open rubber sheet has an opening in the center. The opening can be opened when subjected to external force. When the external force is removed, the open rubber sheet is in a sealed state.

The hollow sleeve is fixed to the top of the movable base, and the sliding column is fixed to the bottom of the injection tray. More preferably, shock-absorbing pads are fixedly connected to both ends of the buffer spring. By designing the movable base and the injection tray as an elastic connection, excessive pressure during injection can be effectively avoided, preventing damage to the sealing cylinder.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution, a serpentine cooling pipe is installed inside the fixing plate. An inlet and an outlet are respectively provided at both ends of one side of the fixing plate. Cooling water can be supplied to the serpentine cooling pipe through the inlet, and water can be discharged from the serpentine cooling pipe through the outlet. When the temperature inside the sealing cylinder is too high and needs to be cooled, cooling water can be introduced into the serpentine cooling pipe to achieve the purpose of cooling the sealing cylinder.

[0010] As a preferred technical solution, a positioning mechanism is installed between the injection tray and the fixing plate.

[0023] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings, so that those skilled in the art can better understand and implement the present invention. However, the embodiments are not intended to limit the present invention.

[0026] Please see Figure 1-6 A sealing device for a liquid injection tray includes a processing table 1. A movable base 2 is slidably mounted on the upper end of the processing table 1. A liquid injection tray 3 is connected to the upper end of the movable base 2. A fixed plate 5 is mounted on the upper end of the liquid injection tray 3. Positioning posts 4 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the upper end of the liquid injection tray 3. Positioning sleeves 7 are fixedly connected to the four corners of the lower end of the fixed plate 5. The positioning posts 4 are sleeved inside the positioning sleeves 7. The positioning posts 4 and the positioning sleeves 7 cooperate to form a positioning mechanism. Several sealing cylinders 6 that penetrate the fixed plate are fixed in the fixed plate 5. A through hole 13 is opened at the central axis of the sealing cylinder 6. The bottom end of the through hole 13 is connected to the liquid injection position of the lithium battery. The top end of the through hole is a liquid injection port 8. An open rubber sheet 9 is installed at the liquid injection port 13. The open rubber sheet has an opening in the center. The opening can be opened when it is squeezed by external force. When the external force is removed, the open rubber sheet is in a sealed state.

[0027] In this embodiment, the lithium battery is placed on the upper end of the liquid injection tray 3. At this time, the fixing plate 5 is picked up by the mechanical gripper, and the positioning sleeves 7 set at the four corners can be accurately placed on the upper end of the liquid injection tray 3, which has a certain positioning function. At this time, the sealing cylinder 6 set in the fixing plate 5 can abut against the liquid injection point of the lithium battery. During liquid injection, the liquid injection device can be inserted into the interior of the open rubber sheet 9. The open rubber sheet 9 is made of a closable rubber material, so that the liquid injection process is a closed channel with better sealing and better liquid injection effect. This design makes the lithium battery liquid injection process form a closed channel, thereby completing the liquid injection in a sealed environment and making the liquid injection effect better. Compared with the traditional dust cover, it is more flexible and has a higher degree of automation.

[0028] Specifically, a heating element 12 is fixedly connected to one side of the inside of the sealed cylinder 6, and the heating element 12 is electrically connected to the first storage battery 14 through a wire.

[0029] In this embodiment, the first storage battery 14 can provide power to the heating element 12, so that the heating element 12 can be powered and heated, thereby heating the sealing cylinder 6.

[0030] Specifically, a serpentine cooling pipe 10 is fixedly connected inside the fixed plate 5. A water inlet and a water outlet are respectively provided at both ends of one side of the fixed plate 5. Cooling water can be delivered into the serpentine cooling pipe through the water inlet and the water in the serpentine cooling pipe can be discharged through the water outlet. A thermostat 11 is fixedly connected to the other side of the sealed cylinder 6.

[0031] In this embodiment, the serpentine cooling pipe 10 inside the fixed plate 5 is connected to the inlet and outlet water ports on both sides. The temperature controller 11 can monitor the temperature of the channel inside the sealed cylinder 6. When the temperature is too high, an appropriate amount of circulating water can be introduced into the fixed plate 5 from the outside for cooling. When the temperature is too low, the heating element 12 can be connected to the power supply for heating. This design can automatically adjust the temperature inside the sealed channel so that the liquid can be injected at an optimal temperature, avoiding the effect of excessively high or low temperatures affecting the injection effect. It has a very good temperature regulation function.

[0032] Specifically, a positioning hole 17 is fixedly opened inside the positioning sleeve 7, and an electric magnetic block 15 is connected inside the positioning sleeve 7 above the positioning hole 17. The electric magnetic block 15 is electrically connected to a second battery 16 through a wire.

[0033] In this embodiment, the second battery 16 can provide power to the electric magnetic block 15, so that the electric magnetic block 15 can generate magnetism and magnetically fix the positioning column 4, which has a good fixing effect. After the liquid injection is completed, the power can be cut off and the block can be separated.

[0034] Several buffer mechanisms are installed between the movable base 2 and the injection tray 3, and are elastically connected through the buffer mechanisms. The buffer mechanism includes a hollow sleeve 19, a buffer spring 20 located inside the hollow sleeve, and a sliding column 22 connected to the top of the buffer spring. The hollow sleeve 19 is fixed to the top of the movable base 2, and the sliding column 22 is fixed to the bottom of the injection tray 3. Shock-absorbing pads 21 are fixedly connected to both ends of the buffer spring 20.

[0035] In this embodiment, by using an elastic connection between the movable base 2 and the liquid injection tray 3, and with the addition of a shock-absorbing pad 21, the stability of the spring can be enhanced. During the liquid injection process, excessive pressure during liquid injection can be avoided, which could damage the sealing cylinder 6. By using an elastic connection, when the pressure is too high, the buffer spring 20 can deform to release the pressure, thus providing excellent protection for the sealing cylinder 6.

[0036] Specifically, a pair of parallel slide rails 23 are fixed on the top of the processing table, and a slide groove adapted to the slide rails is opened on the bottom of the movable base. The movable base slides on the slide rails through the slide grooves, thereby realizing the sliding of the movable base on the processing table.

[0037] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
