Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of battery cell manufacturing technology, and more specifically, to a positioning module and manufacturing equipment. Background Technology

[0002] Currently, with the rapid development of new energy vehicles, batteries are increasingly coming into the public eye. These batteries typically include cylindrical batteries, pouch batteries, and prismatic batteries.

[0003] In related technologies, battery assembly requires marking and welding of the battery top cover. Therefore, how to fix the battery top cover during marking is particularly important. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this application is to provide a positioning module and production equipment that can fix the part to be engraved, which is beneficial for engraving the part.

[0005] In a first aspect, embodiments of this application provide a positioning module, comprising: a support component for providing a support portion; a limiting component including a first limiting structure and a second limiting structure, the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure being respectively connected to the support portion, and the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure being used to place a code piece to be engraved, the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure being close to or far from each other to limit the code piece to be engraved in the left-right direction and / or front-back direction; and a clamping component connected to the support portion, the clamping portion of the clamping component being located above the code piece to be engraved, for limiting the code piece to be engraved in the up-down direction.

[0006] In the above process, both the limiting component and the clamping component are installed on the support part of the support component. The first limiting structure and the second limiting structure can be used to place the part to be engraved. By moving the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure, the left and right and / or front and back directions of the part to be engraved are limited. Then, the clamping part of the clamping component is clamped to the top of the part to be engraved, thereby completing the limitation of the part to be engraved. This avoids shaking or other phenomena when the part to be engraved is engraved, ensuring the overall stability and facilitating the engraving of the part to be engraved.

[0007] In some embodiments, the first limiting structure includes a first mounting component, a first driving component, and a first limiting component. The first driving component is connected to the first mounting component and the first limiting component, the first limiting component is connected to the first mounting component, and the first limiting component is configured with a first limiting groove.

[0008] In the above implementation process, the first driving component and the first limiting component are both installed on the first mounting component. The first driving component is connected to the first limiting component. Under the action of the first driving component, the first limiting component moves relative to the first mounting component, thereby limiting the part to be engraved through the first limiting groove, ensuring the stability of the part to be engraved during engraving, and avoiding unnecessary damage.

[0009] In some embodiments, the first driving component includes a first driving member, a first floating block, a first linear slide rail, and a first connecting block. The first driving member is connected to the first floating block, the first floating block is connected to the first connecting block, the first connecting block is connected to the first limiting member, and the first linear slide rail is connected to the first limiting member and the first mounting member, respectively.

[0010] In the above implementation process, the first driving component is connected to the first connecting block through the first floating block, and the first linear slide rail is connected to the first limiting component and the first mounting component respectively. When the first driving component is driven, the first limiting component can move relative to the first mounting component, which is beneficial for clamping the part to be engraved, avoiding damage to the part to be engraved during engraving, and ensuring the yield rate.

[0011] In some embodiments, the first limiting component includes a first mounting base, a first limiting seat, and a first ceramic rod. The first mounting base is connected to the first limiting seat, the first limiting seat is configured to place the part to be engraved, and the first ceramic rod is connected to the first limiting seat.

[0012] In some embodiments, the first limiting structure further includes a first limiting block, which is connected to the first mounting component, and the height of the first limiting block in the vertical direction is higher than the height of the first mounting component, for limiting the first driving component or the first limiting component.

[0013] In the above implementation process, a first limiting block is connected to the first mounting component. The first limiting block can limit the first driving component or the first limiting component, preventing the first limiting component from slipping off the first mounting component, ensuring the orderly operation of the first limiting structure, and realizing automatic limiting before the code is engraved on the part to be engraved.

[0014] In some embodiments, the second limiting structure includes a second mounting component, a second driving component, and a second limiting component. The second driving component is connected to the second mounting component and the second limiting component, respectively. The second limiting component is connected to the second mounting component, and the second limiting component is configured with a second limiting groove.

[0015] In the above implementation process, the second driving component and the second limiting component are both installed on the second mounting component. The second driving component is connected to the second limiting component. Under the action of the second driving component, the second limiting component moves relative to the second mounting component, thereby limiting the part to be engraved through the second limiting groove, ensuring the stability of the part to be engraved during engraving, and avoiding unnecessary damage.

[0016] In some embodiments, the second driving component includes a second driving member, a second floating block, a second linear slide rail, and a second connecting block. The second driving member is connected to the second floating block, the second floating block is connected to the second connecting block, the second connecting block is connected to the second limiting member, and the second linear slide rail is connected to the second limiting member and the second mounting member, respectively.

[0017] In the above implementation process, the second driving component is connected to the second connecting block through the second floating block, and the second linear slide rail is connected to the second limiting component and the second mounting component respectively. When the second driving component is driven, the second limiting component can move relative to the second mounting component, which is beneficial for clamping the part to be engraved, avoiding damage to the part to be engraved during engraving, and ensuring the yield rate.

[0018] In some embodiments, the second limiting component includes a second mounting base, a second limiting seat, and a second ceramic rod. The second mounting base is connected to the second limiting seat, the second limiting seat is configured to place the part to be engraved, and the second ceramic rod is connected to the second limiting seat.

[0019] In some embodiments, the second limiting structure further includes a second limiting block, which is connected to the second mounting component, and the height of the second limiting block in the vertical direction is higher than the height of the second mounting component, for limiting the second driving component or the second limiting component.

[0020] In the above implementation process, a second limiting block is connected to the second mounting component. The second limiting block can limit the second driving component or the second limiting component, preventing the second limiting component from slipping off the second mounting component, ensuring the orderly operation of the second limiting structure, and realizing automatic limiting before the code is engraved on the part to be engraved.

[0021] In some embodiments, the clamping assembly includes a power structure, a fixing structure, and a clamping structure. The power structure is connected to the fixing structure and the support portion, respectively, and the clamping structure is connected to the fixing structure for clamping the part to be engraved.

[0022] In the above process, both the power structure and the clamping structure are installed on the fixed structure. After the first limiting structure and the second limiting structure limit the part to be engraved in the left and right directions and / or the front and back directions, the power structure drives the clamping structure to move, so that the clamping structure is above the part to be engraved, thereby limiting the part to be engraved in the up and down directions and ensuring that the part to be engraved will not move during the engraving process.

[0023] In some embodiments, the clamping structure includes a first clamping component, which includes a first pull rod, a first clamping member, a first bushing, a first clamping seat, and a first elastic member. One end of the first pull rod passes through the first bushing and the first clamping seat in sequence and contacts the first elastic member. The first clamping member is sleeved on the other end of the first pull rod for contacting the part to be engraved. The first bushing and the first elastic member are connected to opposite sides of the first clamping seat.

[0024] In the above process, after the first pull rod, the first clamping member, the first bushing, the first clamping seat and the first elastic member are assembled, the first clamping member can be used to contact the part to be engraved, thereby forming a limit on the part to be engraved in the vertical direction, ensuring the stability of the part to be engraved during engraving.

[0025] In some embodiments, the clamping structure further includes a second clamping component, wherein the first clamping component and the second clamping component are respectively connected to the fixing structure, and the distance between the first clamping component and the second clamping component is adjustable.

[0026] In the above implementation process, the first clamping component and the second clamping component are respectively connected to the fixing structure, and the first clamping component and the second clamping component can be used to clamp the code to be engraved. At the same time, the distance between the first clamping component and the second clamping component can be adjusted to adapt to different models of code to be engraved, thereby improving product compatibility and reducing cost input.

[0027] Secondly, this application also provides a production device, including a positioning module as described in any of the above claims.

[0028] Since the production equipment provided by the second party includes a positioning module, the production equipment has all the technical effects of the positioning module, which will not be elaborated here.

[0045] Example

[0046] Lithium-ion batteries are batteries that use lithium metal or lithium alloy as the negative electrode material and employ a non-aqueous electrolyte. They are ideal energy carriers in the market due to their advantages such as high operating voltage, small size, light weight, high energy density, no pollution, and long cycle life. A lithium-ion battery includes a casing, a cover, and battery cells. The battery cells are located inside the casing, which has an opening at the top. The cover seals this opening, and the battery is electrically connected to external electronic components via terminals formed on the cover to provide power. In the current lithium-ion battery assembly process, to better manage products, identify workstations where problems occur, trace issues, count quantities, and facilitate real-time data retrieval, a coding device is needed before assembling the lithium-ion battery top cover to affix a QR code to the front. However, the top cover needs to be secured during coding.

[0047] In view of this, such as Figures 1-5As shown, in a first aspect, this application provides a positioning module 1, including: a support component 10, a limiting component 20, and a clamping component 30. The limiting component 20 and the clamping component 30 are both installed on the support component 10. The limiting component 20 can limit the part to be engraved in the left-right direction and / or the front-back direction. The clamping component 30 can limit the part to be engraved in the up-down direction. The part to be engraved includes, but is not limited to, a battery top cover, and the battery includes, but is not limited to, a square battery.

[0048] Specifically, the support component 10 provides a support portion; the limiting component 20 includes a first limiting structure 21 and a second limiting structure 22, which are respectively connected to the support portion, and the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 22 are used to place the code piece to be engraved, and the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 22 are close to or far from each other to limit the code piece to be engraved in the left-right direction and / or front-back direction; the clamping component 30 is connected to the support portion, and the clamping portion of the clamping component 30 is located above the code piece to be engraved, for limiting the code piece to be engraved in the up-down direction.

[0049] For example, the support assembly 10 includes a base plate structure and a support structure. The base plate structure is connected to the bottom of the support structure. The support structure includes a first support profile 101, a second support profile 102, and a support plate 103. The first support profile 101 and the second support profile 102 are spaced apart on the base plate structure. The support plate 103 can be connected to the first support profile 101 and the second support profile 102 through corner brackets 109. The support plate 103 is located above the first and second support profiles and is used to install the limiting assembly 20 and the tightening assembly 30.

[0050] It should be noted that, in order to adapt to different models of components to be engraved, the support structure can be adjusted in position via the base plate structure. For example, the base plate structure includes a first base plate 104 and a second base plate 105. The first base plate 104 is provided with an adjustment groove, the distribution direction of which includes, but is not limited to, the front-to-back direction. The second base plate 105 is installed in the adjustment groove, and the first base plate 104 is provided with a first position adjustment structure and a second position adjustment structure. The first position adjustment structure is used to adjust the front-to-back position of the second base plate 105 relative to the first base plate 104, and the second position adjustment structure is used to adjust the front-to-back position of the second base plate 105 relative to the first base plate 104. The left and right positions of the support assembly 10 are described. The structure of the first position adjustment structure and the structure of the second position adjustment structure can be set to be the same. For example, the first position adjustment structure includes a position adjustment seat 106, an adjustment bolt 107 and an adjustment spiral plate 108. The position adjustment seat 106 is connected to the first base plate 104. The adjustment bolt 107 passes through the position adjustment seat 106 and is connected to the adjustment spiral plate 108. The adjustment spiral plate 108 is connected to the second base plate 105. By rotating the adjustment bolt 107, the relative positions of the first base plate 104 and the second base plate 105 are achieved.

[0051] Of course, such as Figure 5 As shown, in order to control the limiting component 20 and the tightening component 30, the positioning module 1 further includes a control component 40, which is disposed on the second base plate 105 and is connected to the tightening component 30 and the limiting component 20 respectively.

[0052] For example, the control component 40 includes a protective cover 401, a solenoid valve 402, a muffler 403, a plug 404, a manifold 405, and a straight-through 406. The protective cover 401 is used to protect the manifold 405. The solenoid valve 402 includes, but is not limited to, a 3-position 5-way solenoid valve 402. The solenoid valve 402 is connected to the manifold 405. The muffler 403, the plug 404, and the straight-through 406 are respectively connected to the manifold 405.

[0053] In the above-mentioned process, the limiting component 20 and the clamping component 30 are both installed on the support part of the support component 10. The first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 22 can be used to place the code-to-be-engraved part. By moving the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 22, the code-to-be-engraved part is limited in the left and right directions and / or front and back directions. Then, the clamping part of the clamping component 30 is clamped to the top of the code-to-be-engraved part, thereby completing the limitation of the code-to-be-engraved part. This avoids the code-to-be-engraved part from shaking or other phenomena during the engraving process, ensuring the overall stability and facilitating the engraving of the code-to-be-engraved part.

[0054] like Figures 2-3 As shown, the first limiting structure 21 includes a first mounting component 2100, a first driving component, and a first limiting component. The first driving component is connected to the first mounting component 2100 and the first limiting component, and the first limiting component is connected to the first mounting component 2100. The first limiting component is configured with a first limiting groove.

[0055] For example, the first limiting groove is located on the side of the first limiting component near the second limiting structure 22, and the shape of the first limiting groove includes, but is not limited to, a U-shaped groove. When the code-to-be-engraved piece is placed in the first limiting groove by a robot arm, the left-right and front-back directions of the code-to-be-engraved piece can be limited.

[0056] The first mounting component 2100 includes, but is not limited to, a mounting block. In order to improve the overall compactness of the structure, the upper end of the first mounting component 2100 is provided with a mounting groove. The mounting groove is configured to accommodate the first linear slide rail 2103 of the first driving component. Of course, the mounting groove can also serve as a guide.

[0057] In the above implementation process, the first driving component and the first limiting component are both installed on the first mounting component 2100. The first driving component is connected to the first limiting component. Under the action of the first driving component, the first limiting component moves relative to the first mounting component 2100, thereby limiting the part to be engraved through the first limiting groove, ensuring the stability of the part to be engraved during engraving, and avoiding unnecessary damage.

[0058] like Figure 3 As shown, the first driving component includes a first driving member 2101, a first floating block 2102, a first linear slide rail 2103, and a first connecting block 2104. The first driving member 2101 is connected to the first floating block 2102, the first floating block 2102 is connected to the first connecting block 2104, the first connecting block 2104 is connected to the first limiting member, and the first linear slide rail 2103 is connected to both the first limiting member and the first mounting member 2100.

[0059] For example, the first drive member 2101 includes, but is not limited to, a square cylinder. The first drive member 2101 is provided with a first exhaust throttle valve 2106, a first cylinder sensor 2107, etc. The first drive member 2101 can be installed on the upper end of the first mounting component 2100 through a pad 2105. The first floating block 2102 is located on one side of the first connecting block 2104, and the other side of the first connecting block 2104 is connected to the first limiting component.

[0060] It should be noted that, in order to ensure the structural compactness and stability of the first drive component, a snap-fit ​​groove is provided on one side of the first connecting block 2104, and the first floating block 2102 is connected to the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0061] In the above implementation process, the first driving component 2101 is connected to the first connecting block 2104 through the first floating block 2102, and the first linear slide rail 2103 is connected to the first limiting component and the first mounting component 2100 respectively. When the first driving component 2101 is driven, the first limiting component can move relative to the first mounting component 2100, which is beneficial for clamping the part to be engraved, avoiding damage to the part to be engraved during engraving, and ensuring the yield rate.

[0062] In some embodiments, the first limiting component includes a first mounting base 2109, a first limiting base 2110, and a first ceramic rod 2111. The first mounting base 2109 is connected to the first limiting base 2110, the bottom of the first mounting base 2109 is connected to the first linear slide rail 2103, the first limiting base 2110 is configured to place the code-to-be-engraved component, and the first ceramic rod 2111 is connected to the first limiting base 2110.

[0063] Please refer to again Figure 2 and Figure 3 The first limiting structure 21 further includes a first limiting block 2108, which is connected to the first mounting component 2100. The height of the first limiting block 2108 in the vertical direction is higher than the height of the first mounting component 2100, and it is used to limit the first driving component or the first limiting component.

[0064] For example, the first limiting block 2108 can be fixed to the first mounting component 2100 by bolts, and the first limiting block 2108 is located on the side of the first mounting component 2100 near the second mounting component 2200.

[0065] In the above implementation process, a first limiting block 2108 is connected to the first mounting component 2100. The first limiting block 2108 can limit the first driving component or the first limiting component, preventing the first limiting component from slipping off the first mounting component 2100, ensuring that the first limiting structure 21 works in an orderly manner, and realizing automatic limiting before the code is engraved on the part to be engraved.

[0066] like Figures 2-3 As shown, the second limiting structure 22 includes a second mounting component 2200, a second driving component, and a second limiting component. The second driving component is connected to the second mounting component 2200 and the second limiting component, respectively. The second limiting component is connected to the second mounting component 2200, and the second limiting component is provided with a second limiting groove.

[0067] For example, the second limiting groove is located on the side of the second limiting component close to the first limiting structure 21, and the shape of the second limiting groove includes, but is not limited to, a U-shaped groove. When the code-to-be-engraved piece is placed in the second limiting groove by a robot arm, the code-to-be-engraved piece can be limited in the left-right and front-back directions.

[0068] The second mounting component 2200 includes, but is not limited to, a mounting block. In order to improve the overall compactness of the structure, the upper end of the second mounting component 2200 is provided with a mounting groove. The mounting groove is configured to accommodate the second linear slide rail 2203 of the second drive component. Of course, the mounting groove can also serve as a guide.

[0069] In the above implementation process, the second driving component and the second limiting component are both installed on the second mounting component 2200. The second driving component is connected to the second limiting component. Under the action of the second driving component, the second limiting component moves relative to the second mounting component 2200, thereby limiting the part to be engraved through the second limiting groove, ensuring the stability of the part to be engraved during engraving, and avoiding unnecessary damage.

[0070] In some embodiments, the second driving component includes a second driving member 2201, a second floating block 2202, a second linear slide rail 2203, and a second connecting block 2204. The second driving member 2201 is connected to the second floating block 2202, the second floating block 2202 is connected to the second connecting block 2204, the second connecting block 2204 is connected to the second limiting component, and the second linear slide rail 2203 is connected to the second limiting component and the second mounting component 2200, respectively.

[0071] For example, the second drive member 2201 includes, but is not limited to, a square cylinder. The second drive member 2201 is provided with a second exhaust throttle valve 2205, a second cylinder sensor 2206, etc. The second drive member 2201 can be installed on the upper end of the second mounting component 2200 through a pad 2105. The second floating block 2202 is located on one side of the second connecting block 2204, and the other side of the first connecting block 2104 is connected to the first limiting component.

[0072] It should be noted that, in order to ensure the structural compactness and stability of the second drive component, a snap-fit ​​groove is provided on one side of the second connecting block 2204, and the second floating block 2202 is connected to the snap-fit ​​groove.

[0073] In the above implementation process, the second driving component 2201 is connected to the second connecting block 2204 through the second floating block 2202, and the second linear slide rail 2203 is connected to the second limiting component and the second mounting component 2200 respectively. When the second driving component 2201 is driven, the second limiting component can move relative to the second mounting component 2200, which is beneficial for clamping the part to be engraved, avoiding damage to the part to be engraved during engraving, and ensuring the yield rate.

[0074] In some embodiments, the second limiting component includes a second mounting base 2208, a second limiting seat 2210, and a second ceramic rod 2209. The second mounting base 2208 is connected to the second limiting seat 2210, the bottom of the second mounting base 2208 is connected to the second linear slide rail 2203, the second limiting seat 2210 is configured to place the code-to-be-engraved component, and the second ceramic rod 2209 is connected to the second limiting seat 2210.

[0075] In some embodiments, the second limiting structure 22 further includes a second limiting block 2207, which is connected to the second mounting component 2200, and the height of the second limiting block 2207 in the vertical direction is higher than the height of the second mounting component 2200, for limiting the second driving component or the second limiting component.

[0076] For example, the second limiting block 2207 can be fixed to the second mounting component 2200 by bolts, and the second limiting block 2207 is located on the side of the second mounting component 2200 close to the first mounting component 2100.

[0077] In the above implementation process, a second limiting block 2207 is connected to the second mounting component 2200. The second limiting block 2207 can limit the second driving component or the second limiting component, preventing the second limiting component from slipping off the second mounting component 2200, ensuring that the second limiting structure 22 works in an orderly manner, and realizing automatic limiting before the code is engraved on the part to be engraved.

[0078] like Figure 4 As shown, the clamping assembly 30 includes a power structure 310, a fixing structure, and a clamping structure. The power structure 310 is connected to the fixing structure and the support part, respectively. The clamping structure is connected to the fixing structure and is used to clamp the part to be engraved.

[0079] For example, the power structure 310 includes, but is not limited to, a multi-position fixed cylinder. The power structure 310 is provided with a third exhaust throttle valve 311 and a third cylinder sensor 312, etc. The power structure 310 can be connected to the support plate 103 through a mounting component 314 (e.g., a pad 2105). Of course, the support plate 103 is also provided with a third linear slide rail 313, which is used to connect the fixed structure.

[0080] It should be noted that the fixing structure includes a push plate 33 and an adjusting plate 34. The bottom of the push plate 33 is connected to the third linear slide rail 313. The push plate 33 is connected to the power structure 310 through a floating member 315. The adjusting plate 34 is connected to the push plate 33 away from the third linear slide rail 313. The side of the adjusting plate 34 away from the push plate 33 is connected to a clamping structure. The adjusting plate 34 is provided with a plurality of mounting holes along its length. These mounting holes can be used to adjust the position of the clamping structure clamping the part to be engraved.

[0081] Meanwhile, in order to sense whether the code-to-be-engraved part is placed on the positioning module 1, so as to control the operation of the limiting component 20 and the clamping component 30, the support plate 103 is provided with a mounting sheet metal 35, which is used to install the sensor.

[0082] In the above process, the power structure 310 and the clamping structure are both installed on the fixed structure. After the first limiting structure 21 and the second limiting structure 22 limit the code to be engraved in the left and right directions and / or front and back directions, the power structure 310 drives the clamping structure to move, so that the clamping structure is above the code to be engraved, thereby limiting the code to be engraved in the up and down directions and ensuring that the code to be engraved will not move during the engraving process.

[0083] like Figure 4 As shown, the tightening structure includes a first tightening component, which includes a first pull rod 316, a first tightening member 317, a first bushing 318, a first tightening seat 319, and a first elastic member. One end of the first pull rod 316 passes through the first bushing 318 and the first tightening seat 319 in sequence and contacts the first elastic member. The first tightening member 317 is sleeved on the other end of the first pull rod 316 and is used to contact the part to be engraved. The first bushing 318 and the first elastic member are connected to the opposite sides of the first tightening seat 319.

[0084] For example, the first clamping member 317 includes, but is not limited to, a rubber member, and the first bushing 318 includes, but is not limited to, a linear ball bushing. The first clamping member 317 and the first bushing 318 are located on the same side of the first clamping seat 319, which is connected to the adjusting plate 34.

[0085] The first elastic element includes a compression spring 320, a washer 321, and a connector (not shown in the drawing). The compression spring 320 is connected to the first tightening seat 319, the connector is connected to the compression spring 320, and the washer 321 is located between the connector and the compression spring 320.

[0086] In the above process, after the first pull rod 316, the first clamping member 317, the first bushing 318, the first clamping seat 319 and the first elastic member are assembled, the first clamping member 317 can be used to contact the part to be engraved, thereby forming a limit on the part to be engraved in the vertical direction, ensuring the stability of the part to be engraved during engraving.

[0087] Please refer to again Figure 4 The tightening structure further includes a second tightening component. The first tightening component and the second tightening component are respectively connected to the fixing structure, and the distance between the first tightening component and the second tightening component is adjustable. The structure of the second tightening component can be set to be consistent with that of the first tightening component.

[0088] In the above implementation process, the first clamping component and the second clamping component are respectively connected to the fixing structure, and the first clamping component and the second clamping component can be used to clamp the code to be engraved. At the same time, the distance between the first clamping component and the second clamping component can be adjusted to adapt to different models of code to be engraved, thereby improving product compatibility and reducing cost input.

[0089] Secondly, this application also provides a production device, including the positioning module 1 as described above.

[0090] Of course, the production equipment also includes a transport module 2 and a marking module 3, etc. The transport module 2 is used to transport the part to be marked to the positioning module 1, and the marking module 3 is used to mark the part to be marked after it has been positioned by the positioning module 1.

[0091] Since the production equipment provided by the second aspect includes positioning module 1, the production equipment has all the technical effects of positioning module 1, which will not be elaborated here.

[0092] In all embodiments of this application, "large" and "small" are relative terms, "more" and "less" are relative terms, and "upper" and "lower" are relative terms. The embodiments of this application will not elaborate further on the expression of such relative terms.
