Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium battery production equipment technology, specifically to an aluminum shell plasma cleaning and feeding device. Background Technology
[0002] With the rapid development of the new energy industry, lithium-ion batteries are widely used in electric vehicles, energy storage devices, and consumer electronics. Lithium batteries typically use an aluminum casing as the outer protective shell. Aluminum casings offer advantages such as light weight, good thermal conductivity, and corrosion resistance, making them the primary choice for lithium battery packaging.
[0003] During battery assembly, plasma cleaning is required to ensure the robustness and reliability of subsequent processes such as welding, electroplating, and adhesive application. Plasma cleaning technology efficiently removes organic contaminants, particles, and oxide layers from the aluminum casing surface, while also activating the surface and increasing its surface energy, thereby significantly improving the adhesion performance of subsequent processes and overall quality stability.
[0004] Plasma cleaning is characterized by its high processing speed and high degree of automation, and is typically integrated with automated production lines. However, in actual production, unstable upstream material supply cycles or human intervention often lead to material shortages and interruptions in plasma cleaning equipment, thereby reducing overall capacity and equipment utilization. Therefore, achieving orderly, efficient, and continuous material supply to aluminum shells, and ensuring the continuity and stability of the plasma cleaning process, has become a pressing issue that needs to be addressed in current technology.
[0005] Currently, some feeding devices have attempted automatic feeding, but many suffer from problems such as complex structure, poor stability, difficult debugging, and weak adaptability, making it difficult to meet the high-speed, high-efficiency, and stable operation requirements of modern lithium battery production lines. Therefore, there is an urgent need to design a plasma cleaning feeding device that is structurally sound, highly efficient, easy to operate, and suitable for various specifications of aluminum shells. Utility Model Content
[0006] To address the shortcomings of existing technologies, the purpose of this utility model is to provide an aluminum shell plasma cleaning feeding device. It achieves precise feeding by using a clamping cylinder for fixing, a bottom vertical movable cylinder in cooperation with the aluminum shell feeding tray, and an aluminum shell limiting guard to prevent deviation, thereby improving feeding efficiency, accuracy and ease of grabbing at the next work station.
[0007] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model is implemented through the following technical solution: an aluminum shell plasma cleaning feeding device, comprising a support frame, a conveyor belt, an aluminum shell placement groove, a clamping cylinder, an aluminum shell limiting guard rod, and an aluminum shell feeding tray. A conveyor belt is arranged above the support frame, an aluminum shell placement groove is arranged above the conveyor belt, a clamping cylinder is arranged outside the aluminum shell placement groove, an aluminum shell limiting guard rod is arranged on one side above the conveyor belt, an aluminum shell feeding tray is arranged between the conveyor belts, and a bottom vertical movable cylinder is arranged at the bottom of the aluminum shell feeding tray.
[0008] The beneficial effects of this utility model are as follows: The aluminum shell plasma cleaning feeding device fixes the aluminum shell with a clamping cylinder, and the bottom vertical movable cylinder, together with the aluminum shell feeding tray, realizes the accurate feeding of the aluminum shell on the conveyor belt. In addition, the aluminum shell limit guard rod is set to prevent the aluminum shell from deviating during the conveying process, which ensures the stability of the aluminum shell conveying and the convenience of the robot arm at the next station to grasp it, thereby improving the efficiency and accuracy of aluminum shell plasma cleaning feeding. Attached Figure Description
[0009] The present invention will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments;
[0010] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of this utility model. Detailed Implementation
[0011] To make the technical means, creative features, objectives and effects of this utility model easier to understand, the present utility model will be further described below in conjunction with specific embodiments.
[0012] Reference Figure 1 The specific embodiment adopts the following technical solution: an aluminum shell plasma cleaning feeding device, including a support frame 1, a conveyor belt 2, an aluminum shell placement groove 3, a clamping cylinder 4, an aluminum shell limiting guard rod 5, and an aluminum shell feeding tray 6. The support frame 1 is provided with a conveyor belt 2 above it, the aluminum shell placement groove 3 is provided above it, the clamping cylinder 4 is provided on the outside of the aluminum shell placement groove 3, the aluminum shell limiting guard rod 5 is provided on one side above the conveyor belt 2, the aluminum shell feeding tray 6 is provided between the conveyor belts 2, and the bottom vertical movable cylinder 7 is provided at the bottom of the aluminum shell feeding tray 6.
[0013] The working principle of this specific implementation is as follows: The external robotic arm places the aluminum shell into the aluminum shell limiting groove and fixes it by the clamping cylinder on the side. When feeding is required, the bottom vertical movable cylinder 7 pushes the aluminum shell feeding tray 6 to move upward. After the clamping cylinder is released and the aluminum shell is placed on the aluminum shell feeding tray 6, the bottom vertical movable cylinder 7 will then place the aluminum shell to be cleaned completely on the conveyor belt.
[0014] The main function of the guard rod in this specific embodiment is to prevent the aluminum shell from deviating during its movement on the conveyor line, which would make it difficult for the robot arm at the next workstation to grasp it.
[0015] The foregoing has shown and described the basic principles, main features, and advantages of this utility model. Those skilled in the art should understand that this utility model is not limited to the above embodiments. The embodiments and descriptions in the specification are merely illustrative of the principles of this utility model. Various changes and modifications can be made to this utility model without departing from its spirit and scope, and all such changes and modifications fall within the scope of the claims.
