[0035] In related technologies, electrode manufacturing equipment can transport electrodes via a conveying module of a material conveying device. Currently, the material conveying device for electrodes has a relatively complex structure, making it inconvenient to install and disassemble the conveying module.

[0036] This utility model proposes a material conveying device 100.

[0037] Please see Figures 1 to 5 In one embodiment of the present invention, the material conveying device 100 includes:

[0038] Base 10, the base 10 having a mounting position; and

[0039] The conveying module 20 includes a detachably mounted component at the mounting position for conveying materials along a first direction. The conveying module 20 also includes two sides disposed opposite each other in a second direction. The sides are detachably connected to the base 10. The second direction is perpendicular to the first direction.

[0040] In some embodiments, the top of the base 10 may have a connecting surface for supporting the conveying module 20. This connecting surface may be planar or contoured to the bottom of the conveying module 20 to form a mounting position for placing the conveying module 20. The conveying module 20 extends along a first direction and may be configured, but is not limited to, a linear conveying mechanism such as an assembly line, for conveying materials to a specific workstation along the first direction. The materials may be, but are not limited to, battery-grade sheets.

[0041] The main body of the conveying module 20 is separable from the base 10, and its side in the second direction can be detachably connected to the base 10 via, but is not limited to, quick-release connections such as snap-fit ​​or threaded connections. Understandably, with this configuration, when the conveying module 20 needs to be disassembled, simply unlocking the side of the conveying module 20 from the base 10 allows the entire structure of the conveying module 20 to detach from its mounting position along the second direction. This improves the ease of installation and disassembly of the conveying module 20, facilitating its installation, disassembly, and cleaning.

[0042] Furthermore, in some embodiments, the conveying module 20 and the base 10 can also be configured to slide together in a second direction. For example, the side of the base 10 facing the conveying module 20 can be provided with a slide rail in the second direction, and the side of the conveying module 20 facing the base 10 can be correspondingly provided with a slider. This arrangement helps to reduce the friction between the conveying module 20 and the base 10, so that the conveying module 20 can move in and out of the mounting position on the base 10 in the second direction.

[0043] Please see Figures 2 to 5 In an embodiment of this utility model, the material conveying device 100 further includes an installation module 30, which is disposed on the base 10 and located on one side of the mounting position in the second direction, for pressing against or releasing the side of the conveying module 20.

[0044] The mounting module 30 can be connected to the base 10 and pressed against the side of the conveying module 20 to prevent the conveying module 20 from detaching from the mounting position on the base 10. Alternatively, the mounting module 30 can be detached from the base 10 and loosened from the side of the conveying module 20, allowing the conveying module 20 to detach from the mounting position on the base 10 in a second direction, thereby achieving quick installation of the conveying module 20.

[0045] Please see Figures 2 to 4 In an embodiment of this utility model, the conveying module 20 includes:

[0046] Drive assembly 21, wherein a plurality of rollers 211 are sequentially arranged along the first direction, the rollers 211 are rotatably arranged around the second direction, and the mounting module 30 is detachably connected to the end of the rollers 211; and

[0047] The conveying assembly 22 includes a conveyor belt 221 sequentially wound around a plurality of rollers 211 for conveying materials along the first direction under the drive of the driving assembly 21.

[0048] Specifically, the mounting module 30 is located at least at one end of the drive assembly 21. By removing the mounting module 30 from the end of the drive assembly 21, the mounting module 30 can be loosened from the side of the conveying module 20, thereby allowing the conveying module 20 to be disassembled as a whole along the axis of the roller, achieving quick installation of the conveying module 20.

[0049] Please see Figures 2 to 5 In an embodiment of this utility model, the installation module 30 includes a fixing member 31, which is detachably disposed on the base 10 and located at one end of the roller 211;

[0050] One of the fixing member 31 and the roller 211 is provided with a slot 311, and the other of the fixing member 31 and the roller 211 is provided with a plug 212, which is movably inserted into the slot 311 along the second direction.

[0051] With this configuration, the roller 211 and the fixing member 31 can be engaged through the slot 311 and the socket, thereby enabling quick assembly and disassembly between the installation module 30 and the conveying module 20.

[0052] In an embodiment of this utility model, the extension direction of the slot 311 is perpendicular to the second direction, and the insert block 212 is slidably connected to the slot 311 so that the insertion hole can enter and exit the slot 311 along the second direction, thereby improving the ease of disassembly and assembly between the fixing member 31 and the mounting module 30.

[0053] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of this utility model, the fixing member 31 is provided with the slot 311, one end of which extends through to the circumferential surface of the fixing member 31. This arrangement allows the insertion hole to be inserted into or removed from the slot 311 not only along the second direction, but also from the through end of the slot 311, thereby further improving the ease of assembly and disassembly between the fixing member 31 and the mounting module 30.

[0054] Please see Figure 5In this embodiment of the invention, the insert 212 has a first positioning hole 212a, and the inner wall of the slot 311 has a second positioning hole 311a. The first positioning hole 212a and the second positioning hole 311a are arranged opposite to each other. By arranging the first positioning hole 212a and the second positioning hole 311a opposite to each other, it can be ensured that the conveying module 20 is fully inserted into the mounting position of the base 10. Furthermore, the mounting module 30 may also be provided with fasteners, which are used to sequentially pass through the first positioning hole 212a and the second positioning hole 311a after the conveying module 20 is installed and aligned, so as to lock the insert 212 in the slot 311. This can realize the position locking between the conveying module 20 and the mounting module 30, which is beneficial to ensuring the assembly stability of the conveying module 20.

[0055] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of this utility model, the installation module 30 further includes an identifier 32, which is disposed at the end of the fixing member 31 away from the roller 211 and is used to identify the relative position of the fixing member 31 and the roller 211.

[0056] Specifically, in this embodiment, the end of the roller 211 is provided with an insertion block 212, the fixing member 31 is provided with a through slot 311, and the marking member 32 is provided with a through hole. The marking member 32 and the fixing member 31 can be fixedly connected, and the through hole is arranged opposite to the slot 311. The insertion block 212 at the end of the roller 211 passes through the slot 311 and the through hole in sequence. Furthermore, a scale can be provided on the side of the marking member 32 away from the fixing member 31. The scale and the through hole are arranged side by side to mark the position of the insertion hole in the through hole, thereby marking the relative position of the fixing member 31 and the roller 211.

[0057] Please see Figure 4 and Figure 5 In an embodiment of this utility model, the installation module 30 further includes a detection element 33, the detection end of which is disposed opposite to the conveyor belt 221.

[0058] The detection element 33 can be configured as a contact sensor such as a micro switch, or as a non-contact sensor such as a photoelectric switch. By setting the detection element 33 in the installation module 30 and positioning its detection end opposite to the conveyor belt 221, the relative position of the installation module 30 and the conveyor belt 221 in the conveying module 20 can be detected through the detection element 33, so as to detect whether each module in the material conveying device 100 is installed in place.

[0059] Please see Figure 1In an embodiment of this utility model, the material conveying device 100 includes a plurality of conveying modules 20, one of which is disposed on the base 10, and at least a portion of two adjacent conveying modules 20 are stacked along a third direction, the third direction being perpendicular to the first direction and the second direction respectively.

[0060] When the material conveying device 100 includes several conveying modules 20, at least one conveying module 20 can be detachably connected to the base 10 via an installation module 30, while the remaining conveying modules 20 can be detachably connected to the base 10 via the installation module 30, or detachably connected to adjacent conveying modules 20 via the installation module 30. This arrangement allows for quick assembly and disassembly of the multiple conveying modules 20 of the material conveying device 100, and facilitates the reconstruction of the conveying path of the material conveying device 100 by reinstalling and adjusting the multiple conveying modules 20.

[0061] In some embodiments, at least a portion of two adjacent conveying modules 20 are stacked along a third direction to facilitate connection and installation between them. Further, to facilitate material transfer between adjacent conveying modules 20, each conveying module 20 may include a pneumatic module, which can be used to supply positive pressure gas to the material on the conveying module 20 and blow it towards the material to transport it to a preset workstation, thus achieving material transfer. Further, the conveying module 20 may also create a negative pressure environment on itself via the pneumatic module to adsorb the material on the conveying module 20. Of course, the technical solution of this utility model is not limited to this. In other embodiments, a transfer module such as a gripper module or a vacuum adsorption module may also be configured between adjacent conveying modules 20 to achieve material transfer between them through mechanical clamping, vacuum adsorption, or other methods.

[0062] It should be noted that the transmission directions of two adjacent conveying modules 20 can be arranged parallel to each other. For example, both can extend along the first direction to sequentially transmit materials along the same straight line. Of course, the transmission directions of two adjacent conveying modules 20 can also be arranged at an angle to change the transmission direction of materials. The specific implementation can be set according to actual needs and is not limited here.

[0063] This utility model also proposes an electrode manufacturing equipment, which includes a material conveying device 100. The specific structure of the material conveying device 100 is as described in the above embodiments. Since this electrode manufacturing equipment adopts all the technical solutions of all the above embodiments, it has at least all the beneficial effects brought about by the technical solutions of the above embodiments, which will not be described in detail here.

[0064] The above description is merely an exemplary embodiment of the present utility model and does not limit the patent scope of the present utility model. Any equivalent structural transformations made based on the technical concept of the present utility model and the contents of the present utility model specification and drawings, or direct / indirect applications in other related technical fields, are included within the patent protection scope of the present utility model.
