[0031] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0032] Please see Figures 1-6This utility model provides a technical solution: an integrated machine for horizontally placed electrode cap repair and replacement, including a support 2, a repair and replacement module 1 at the top of the support 2, a disassembly ring 5 and a grinding ring 6 respectively in the repair and replacement module 1, a control box 3 and a collection tray 4, the control box 3 is installed on the outer wall of the support 2, the collection tray 4 is installed on the outer wall of the support 2 and is located at the bottom of the repair and replacement module 1, the bottom of the grinding ring 6 is provided with an adjustment device 7, the adjustment device 7 includes an adjustment ring 709 and two upper movable grooves 701, the top of the adjustment ring 709 is provided with two lower movable grooves 714, and a pin 708 is provided between the upper movable groove 701 and the corresponding lower movable groove 714. By rotating the adjustment ring 709, the pin 708 is moved to adjust the distance between the two pins 708. The upper movable groove 701 is opened at the bottom of the grinding ring 6, and the top of the adjustment ring 709 is attached to and slidably connected to the bottom of the grinding ring 6. The inner wall of the upper movable groove 701 is provided with a transmission The moving groove 702 and the transmission groove 702 are slidably connected to a transmission block 707. The bottom of the transmission block 707 is connected to a movable block 705. One side of the movable block 705 is connected to one side of the pin 708. The bottom of the lower movable groove 714 is provided with a stroke groove 713, and a stroke block 706 is slidably connected in the stroke groove 713. The top of the stroke block 706 is connected to the bottom of the movable block 705. The adjusting ring 709 is provided with two threaded grooves 715, and a fixing bolt 710 is threadedly connected in the threaded grooves 715. The top of the fixing bolt 710 abuts against the bottom of the grinding ring 6. The top of the adjusting ring 709 is provided with two sliding grooves 711, and a sliding block 703 is slidably connected in the sliding grooves 711. The top of the sliding block 703 is connected to the bottom of the grinding ring 6. Limiting grooves 712 are provided on both sides of the inner wall of the sliding grooves 711, and limiting blocks 704 are slidably connected in the limiting grooves 712. One side of the limiting block 704 is connected to the outer wall of the sliding block 703.

[0033] In a specific implementation, by setting an adjustment device 7 and tightening the fixing bolt 710, the top of the fixing bolt 710 is separated from the grinding ring 6, thereby causing the fixing bolt 710 to lose its fixing effect on the grinding ring 6. Then, the adjustment ring 709 is rotated, causing the adjustment ring 709 to drive the stroke groove 713 to rotate. The stroke groove 713 drives the stroke block 706 to rotate, thereby causing the stroke block 706 to drive the movable block 705 to move. The movement of the movable block 705 drives the transmission block 707 to move. The transmission block 707 slides in the transmission groove 702, and because the transmission groove 702 is inclined, the transmission groove 702 drives the transmission block 707 to move, causing the transmission block 707 to drive the movable block 705 to move in a direction perpendicular to the axial direction, so that the two movable blocks 705... 05 drives the two pins 708 to move, thereby adjusting the distance between the two pins 708 to meet the requirements of grinding electrode caps of different sizes. Then, by tightening the fixing bolt 710 in the reverse direction, the fixing bolt 710 is brought back into contact with the bottom of the grinding ring 6 to fix the adjusting ring 709. The outer wall of the stroke block 706 has two anti-rotation grooves, which make one side of the anti-rotation groove slide against the inner wall of the stroke groove 713, so that the stroke block 706 is prevented from rotating within the stroke groove 713 and affecting the grinding effect of the pins 708. The replacement module 1 is equipped with a drive motor and a transmission gear. The drive motor drives the transmission gear to rotate, thereby driving the disassembly ring 5 and the grinding ring 6 to rotate. This technology is existing technology and does not need to be described in detail.

[0034] The collection tray 4 is equipped with a collection device 8, which includes two connecting grooves 806. The connecting grooves 806 are opened on the side wall of the collection tray 4, and the bottom of the connecting grooves 806 is provided with a bottom groove 807. A sliding sleeve seat 802 is slidably connected in the bottom groove 807. The top of the sliding sleeve seat 802 is slidably connected to the top of the inner wall of the connecting groove 806. The same collection plate 801 is connected between the two sliding sleeve seats 802. A connecting block 803 is connected to one side of one of the sliding sleeve seats 802, and a lever 804 is connected to one side of the connecting block 803. The bottom of the collection plate 801 is in contact with the bottom of the collection tray 4. A sliding rod 805 is slidably connected in the sliding sleeve seat 802 with damping. The two ends of the sliding rod 805 are respectively connected to the two sides of the inner wall of the connecting groove 806.

[0035] In a specific implementation, a collection device 8 is provided. By moving the lever 804, the lever 804 causes the connecting block 803 to move to one side. The connecting block 803 causes the sliding sleeve seat 802 to move, which in turn causes the sliding sleeve seat 802 to move the collection plate 801. This causes the collection plate 801 to scrape the electrode caps in the collection tray 4 and concentrate them on one side of the collection tray 4, thereby facilitating recycling and improving recycling efficiency. By providing two sliding rods 805, the two sliding rods 805 support the collection plate 801, preventing the collection plate 801 from shifting during movement and causing jamming that affects its use.

[0036] Working principle: In use, the matching robotic arm picks up the electrode cap to be refurbished. Then, based on the size of the electrode caps in the same batch, the fixing bolt 710 is rotated, causing it to lose its fixing effect on the refurbishing ring 6. Then, the adjusting ring 709 is rotated, causing the adjusting ring 709 to move the stroke block 706 in the stroke groove 713. This, in turn, causes the stroke block 706 to move the movable block 705, which in turn moves the transmission block 707. Because the transmission groove 702 is tilted, it causes the transmission block 707 to move obliquely, thereby enabling the transmission... Block 707 drives movable block 705 to move perpendicular to the axis of adjusting ring 709, thereby adjusting the distance between the two pins 708 to meet the needs of grinding electrode caps of different sizes. Then, the electrode cap is disassembled by disassembling ring 5, causing the electrode cap to fall into the collection tray 4. Then, by moving the dial plate 804, the dial plate 804 drives the connecting block 803 to move. The connecting block 803 drives the collection plate 801 to move through the sliding sleeve seat 802, so that the collection plate 801 gathers the electrode caps in the collection tray 4, thereby facilitating the collection of damaged electrode caps and improving collection efficiency.
