Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of battery production technology, specifically to an aluminum-cased battery casing discharge steering device. Background Technology

[0002] Against the backdrop of rapid development in new energy vehicles and energy storage systems, aluminum-cased batteries have become one of the most widely used battery types in the market due to their advantages such as light weight, good heat dissipation, and high strength. The production of aluminum-cased battery casings typically involves multiple processing steps, such as stamping, stretching, and cleaning. After these processes, the aluminum-cased battery casings need to be unloaded and transported to the next stage. However, during the unloading process, due to limitations in the production line layout and the requirements of subsequent processes, the unloading direction of the aluminum-cased battery casings needs to be adjusted.

[0003] Chinese patent CN219970834U discloses an aluminum-cased battery casing discharge steering device. The device uses a cylinder to lift the open end of the casing, while the end of the casing away from the open end continues to move with the conveyor belt. The open end of the casing rotates away from the conveyor belt, thereby rotating the casing to a state where the casing opening faces upward, thus realizing the automatic steering of the box-shaped casing.

[0004] However, when the above-mentioned patent is used, if the position or angle of the housing on the conveyor belt is offset, it is easy for the housing to tip over during the turning process. The housing turning has a certain failure rate and is not very stable. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this invention is to provide an aluminum-cased battery casing discharge steering device, which effectively solves the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0006] To achieve the above objectives, the present invention provides the following technical solution.

[0007] A discharge steering device for aluminum-cased battery casings includes an upper conveyor belt installed above a lower conveyor belt and two side plates. The lower and upper conveyor belts are parallel to each other and have opposite conveying directions. A rotating body is installed between the two side plates via a rotating mechanism. Multiple carrier plates are installed on the outer surface of the rotating body. Clamping plates for fixing the battery casings are installed on both sides of the upper surface of the carrier plates via clamping mechanisms.

[0008] Furthermore, the rotating mechanism includes two connecting shafts respectively mounted at both ends of the rotating body, and the ends of the connecting shafts are rotatably connected to the side plates. A servo motor is mounted on the outer surface of one of the side plates, and the end of the servo motor output shaft is connected to the connecting shaft.

[0009] Furthermore, the clamping mechanism includes a fixed plate mounted on the upper surface of the carrier plate, an electric push rod mounted on the outer surface of the fixed plate, the telescopic end of the electric push rod extending through to the other side of the fixed plate and connecting to the clamping plate. Guide rods are connected to both sides of the outer surface of the clamping plate, and the ends of the guide rods slide through to the other side of the fixed plate.

[0010] Furthermore, the surface of the carrier plate is uniformly distributed with ball bearings.

[0011] Furthermore, a rubber pad is provided on the outer surface of the carrier plate.

[0012] Furthermore, multiple carrier plates are provided, and these multiple carrier plates are distributed coaxially at equal angles. When one carrier plate is perpendicular to the lower conveyor belt, another carrier plate is tilted towards the upper conveyor belt with its end higher than the end lower than the end of the upper conveyor belt.

[0013] Furthermore, a baffle is provided on the upper surface of the carrier plate and between the two clamps.

[0014] Furthermore, a groove is formed along the length of the carrier plate, and a slider is slidably mounted inside the groove. The top of the slider is connected to a baffle, and a base block is mounted on the bottom of the slider. Multiple screw holes are formed on the lower surface of the carrier plate on both sides of the groove width direction, and fixing bolts that match the screw holes are mounted on the base block.

[0015] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows.

[0016] This invention uses an upper conveyor belt to transport the housing. When the housing is transported to the carrier plate, the clamping mechanism drives the clamping plates on both sides to clamp and fix it. As the rotating mechanism drives the rotating body to rotate, the housing is rotated to the bottom. At this time, the opening of the housing faces upward and is vertically located directly above the upper conveyor belt. At this time, the fixing of the housing can be released, allowing the housing to fall onto the lower conveyor belt for reverse transport, thereby achieving the purpose of turning the housing. Even if the position and angle of the housing are offset when it is transported on the upper conveyor belt, it will not affect its turning. It has a high success rate and strong stability.

[0023] 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 of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0024] Please see Figures 1-5 The present invention provides an aluminum-cased battery casing discharge steering device, including an upper conveyor belt 2 installed above a lower conveyor belt 1 and two side plates 3. The lower conveyor belt 1 and the upper conveyor belt 2 are parallel to each other and have opposite conveying directions. A rotating body 301 is installed between the two side plates 3 through a rotating mechanism 4. Multiple carrier plates 302 are installed on the outer surface of the rotating body 301. Clamping plates 303 for fixing the battery casing are installed on both sides of the upper surface of the carrier plate 302 through a clamping mechanism 5.

[0025] In use, when the battery casing is placed horizontally on the upper conveyor belt 2 with its opening facing the carrier plate 302, the battery casing enters the carrier plate 302 from the end of the upper conveyor belt 2. At this time, the clamping mechanism 5 can drive the clamping plates 303 on both sides of the casing for fixation. Then, the rotating body 301 is driven by the rotating mechanism 4 to rotate intermittently at a certain angle. When the clamped and fixed casing is transferred to the top of the lower conveyor belt 1, the opening of the casing faces upward. Then, the clamping plates 303 are released to fix it, so that the casing falls vertically onto the lower conveyor belt 1 for reverse transport, thereby achieving the purpose of casing turning. Even if the position and angle of the casing are offset when it is transported on the upper conveyor belt 2, it will not affect its turning. The success rate is high and the stability is strong.

[0026] Preferably, the rotating mechanism 4 includes two connecting shafts 401 respectively installed at both ends of the rotating body 301, and the ends of the connecting shafts 401 are rotatably connected to the side plate 3. A servo motor 402 is installed on the outer surface of one of the side plates 3, and the end of the output shaft of the servo motor 402 is connected to the connecting shaft 401.

[0027] When the servo motor 402 is started, its output shaft can drive the connecting shaft 401 connected to it to rotate, thereby achieving the purpose of driving the rotating body 301 to rotate. The rotation angle and interval time can be adjusted according to actual production needs.

[0028] Preferably, the clamping mechanism 5 includes a fixed plate 501 mounted on the upper surface of the carrier plate 302. An electric push rod 502 is mounted on the outer surface of the fixed plate 501. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 502 extends through to the other side of the fixed plate 501 and is connected to the clamping plate 303. Guide rods 503 are connected to both sides of the outer surface of the clamping plate 303, and the ends of the guide rods 503 slide through to the other side of the fixed plate 501.

[0029] When the battery casing enters the upper surface of the carrier plate 302, the electric push rod 502 can be activated. The telescopic end of the electric push rod 502 pushes the clamping plate 303 against the outer surface of the casing, thereby achieving the purpose of clamping and fixing. Furthermore, the limiting effect of the guide rod 503 can ensure the stability of the clamping plate 303 during movement and ensure the clamping and fixing effect.

[0030] Preferably, the surface of the carrier plate 302 is uniformly distributed with balls 7.

[0031] By setting the ball bearing 7, the friction between the housing and the surface of the carrier plate 302 can be reduced, avoiding scratches and other defects on the housing surface caused by direct friction.

[0032] Preferably, a rubber pad 8 is provided on the outer surface of the carrier plate 302.

[0033] The rubber pad 8 acts as a buffer when the clamping plate 303 holds the housing, reducing impact and preventing damage to the housing.

[0034] Preferably, there are multiple carrier plates 302, and the multiple carrier plates 302 are distributed coaxially at equal angles. When one carrier plate 302 is perpendicular to the lower conveyor belt 1, another carrier plate 302 is tilted towards the upper conveyor belt 2 with the end closer to the upper conveyor belt 2 being higher and the end farther away from the upper conveyor belt 2 being lower.

[0035] Whenever the battery casing is vertically positioned directly above the lower conveyor belt 1 after being turned, a carrier plate 302 will be tilted and aligned with the upper conveyor belt 2, so that receiving and discharging are synchronized. Because the receiving carrier plate 302 is tilted, the casing can be completely inserted into the carrier plate 302 under the action of the ball bearings 7, avoiding the casing from colliding with the upper conveyor belt 2 when the connecting shaft 401 rotates.

[0036] Preferably, a baffle 304 is provided on the upper surface of the carrier plate 302 and located between the two clamping plates 303.

[0037] Since the carrier plate 302 is tilted when receiving materials, and the ball bearings 7 facilitate the sliding of the housing, the sliding distance of the housing can be limited by the baffle 304, so that the end away from the opening can be close to the edge of the carrier plate 302, thereby reducing the height of the housing falling onto the lower conveyor belt 1 and ensuring the stability of the housing.

[0038] Preferably, a groove 6 is formed on the carrier plate 302 along its length. A slider 601 is slidably mounted inside the groove 6, and the top of the slider 601 is connected to the baffle 304. A base block 602 is mounted on the bottom of the slider 601. Multiple screw holes 603 are formed on the lower surface of the carrier plate 302 on both sides in the width direction of the groove 6. Fixing bolts 604 that are compatible with the screw holes 603 are mounted on the base block 602.

[0039] By adjusting the position of the sliding slider 601 within the chute 6 and fixing the bottom block 602 with the fixing bolts 604 and screw holes 603, the position of the baffle 304 can be adjusted to ensure that when guiding shells of different sizes, the end furthest from the opening is at the edge of the carrier plate 302, thus ensuring that the shell falls stably onto the lower conveyor belt 1.

[0040] All standard parts used in this utility model can be purchased from the market, and irregular parts can be customized according to the description and drawings. The specific connection methods of each part adopt conventional methods such as bolts, rivets, and welding that are mature in the prior art. The machinery, parts and equipment adopt conventional models in the prior art. In addition, the circuit connection adopts conventional connection methods in the prior art, which will not be described in detail here.

[0041] It will be apparent to those skilled in the art that this invention is not limited to the details of the exemplary embodiments described above, and that it can be implemented in other specific forms without departing from the spirit or essential characteristics of this invention. Therefore, the embodiments should be considered illustrative and non-limiting in all respects, and the scope of this invention is defined by the appended claims rather than the foregoing description.
