[0037] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of this utility model clearer, the technical solutions of the embodiments of this utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. The described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of this utility model.

[0038] Therefore, the following detailed description of the embodiments of the present invention provided in the accompanying drawings is not intended to limit the scope of the claimed invention, but merely to illustrate selected embodiments of the invention. All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0039] Example 1

[0040] refer to Figures 1 to 6The battery flexible circuit board clamping mechanism provided in this embodiment includes an adsorption component 1, and a first clamping component 2 and a second clamping component 3 respectively disposed on both sides of the adsorption component 1. Figure 2 As shown, the flexible battery circuit board includes a flexible circuit board body 100 and a first connecting end 200 and a second connecting end 300 disposed on opposite sides of the flexible circuit board body 100. The adsorption assembly 1 is used to adsorb and fix the flexible circuit board body 100, and the first clamping assembly 2 and the second clamping assembly 3 are used to clamp and fix the first connecting end 200 and the second connecting end 300, respectively.

[0041] In this embodiment, the first clamping component 2 and the second clamping component 3 have the same structure. The first clamping component 2 and the second clamping component 3 can be symmetrically arranged on both sides of the adsorption component 1, or they can be asymmetrically arranged, depending on the specific clamping position. The adsorption component 1, the first clamping component 2, and the third clamping component 3 can be fixedly connected to the same mounting plate. The mounting plate can be driven by a drive module or a robotic arm, etc., to realize the movement of the adsorption component 1, the first clamping component 2, and the third clamping component 3.

[0042] The first clamping assembly 2 includes a first gripper 21, a second gripper 22, and a first driving member 23 for driving the first gripper 21 and the second gripper 22 to move closer or further apart. The first gripper 21 and the second gripper 22 respectively abut against opposite sides of the first connecting end 200. The second clamping assembly 3 includes a third gripper 31, a fourth gripper 32, and a second driving member 33 for driving the third gripper 31 and the fourth gripper 32 to move closer or further apart. The third gripper 31 and the fourth gripper 32 respectively abut against opposite sides of the second connecting end 300. The driving direction of the first driving member 23 is parallel to the driving direction of the second driving member 33. In this embodiment, both the first driving member 23 and the second driving member 33 are driving cylinders.

[0043] The flexible battery board body 100 is fixed by adsorption component 1, and the first connecting end 200 and the second connecting end 300 are fixed by the first clamping component 2 and the second clamping component 3, respectively. This achieves the clamping and fixing of flexible battery boards with special shapes such as T-shape or "mountain" shape. Furthermore, the fixing method of adsorption in the middle and clamping on both sides has strong stability and can stably maintain the basic shape of the flexible battery board, which is beneficial to improving the quality of battery production operations and product quality. It should be noted that the flexible battery board clamping mechanism of this embodiment is applicable to flexible battery boards with special shapes such as T-shape or "mountain" shape. This embodiment uses a "mountain" shaped flexible battery board as an example for feature description.

[0044] In some embodiments, a first limiting member 24 is provided between the first gripper 21 and the second gripper 22, and a second limiting member 34 is provided between the third gripper 31 and the fourth gripper 32. The width of the first limiting member 24 is slightly wider than the width of the first connecting end 200, and the width of the second limiting member 34 is slightly wider than the width of the second connecting end 300. The opposite sides of the first limiting member 24 are used to abut against the first gripper 21 and the second gripper 22 respectively, to limit the movement of the first gripper 21 and the second gripper 22 towards each other, and to prevent the first gripper 21 and the second gripper 22 from excessively squeezing the first connecting end 200 and causing damage to the first connecting end 200. The bottom of the first limiting member 24 is used to abut against the upper surface of the first connecting end 200, to limit the first connecting end 200 in the vertical direction, thereby helping to maintain the horizontality of the first connecting end 200. The structure and function of the second limiting member 34 are the same as those of the first limiting member 24, and will not be described in detail here.

[0045] In some embodiments, the first limiting member 24 can be configured as a contour-following limiting member, that is, the bottom shape of the first limiting member 24 is configured to match the shape of the upper surface of the first connecting end 200, so that the contact between the first limiting member 24 and the first connecting end 200 can be more tightly fitted, thereby improving the levelness of the first connecting end 200.

[0046] As a further optimization, suction holes 4 can be provided at the bottom of both the first limiting member 24 and the bottom of the second limiting member 34. By providing suction holes 4, the first connecting end 200 or the second connecting end 300 can be fixed by suction while limiting the first connecting end 200 or the second connecting end 300, further preventing the first connecting end 200 or the second connecting end 300 from shifting in the vertical direction, and further improving the horizontality of the first connecting end 200 or the second connecting end 300 when it is clamped and fixed.

[0047] In some embodiments, a first limiting hook 25 is provided at the end of the first gripper 21 and the end of the second gripper 22, and the first limiting hook 25 is used to abut against the bottom of the first connecting end 200. A second limiting hook 35 is provided at the end of the third gripper 31 and the end of the fourth gripper 32, and the second limiting hook 35 is used to abut against the bottom of the second connecting end 300. The vertical distance between the first limiting hook 25 and the first limiting member 24 is slightly greater than the thickness of the first connecting end 200, and the vertical distance between the second limiting hook 35 and the second limiting member 34 is slightly greater than the thickness of the second connecting end 300. Through the cooperation of the first limiting member 24 and the first limiting hook 25, the first connecting end 200 can be stably limited and fixed in the vertical direction, further improving the clamping stability of the first connecting end 200 and further improving the horizontality of the first connecting end 200. The effect of the second limiting hook 35 is the same as that of the first limiting hook 25, and will not be described in detail here.

[0048] As a further optimization, a first buffer 26 is provided at the contact position between the first gripper 21 and the second gripper 22 and the first connecting end 200. The first buffer 26 can be a silicone pad, which can protect the first connecting end 200 and effectively prevent it from being pinched. The first buffer 26 can also be provided at the contact position between the third gripper 31 and the fourth gripper 32 and the second connecting end 300 to further protect the second connecting end 300.

[0049] Example 2

[0050] As a further optimization of Example 1, refer to Figures 7 to 9 The battery flexible circuit board clamping mechanism also includes a third clamping component 5 disposed between the first clamping component 2 and the adsorption component 1, and a fourth clamping component 6 disposed between the second clamping component 3 and the adsorption component 1. The first clamping component 2, the second clamping component 3, the third clamping component 5 and the fourth clamping component 6 have the same structure.

[0051] In this embodiment, the first connecting end 200 is L-shaped, including a first end 201 and a second end 202 connected to the first end 201. The first end 201 is connected to the flexible circuit board body 100. The second connecting end 300 is L-shaped, including a third end 301 and a fourth end 302 connected to the third end 301. The third end 301 is connected to the flexible circuit board body 100. The first connecting end 200, the flexible circuit board body 100, and the second connecting end 300 are connected to form a "mountain"-shaped battery flexible circuit board. The first clamping component 2 is used to clamp and fix the second end 202, the third clamping component 5 is used to clamp and fix the first end 201, the second clamping component 3 is used to clamp and fix the fourth end 302, and the fourth clamping component 6 is used to clamp and fix the third end 301. This can further improve the clamping stability of the first connecting end 200 and the second connecting end 300, and at the same time, can further improve the horizontality of the first connecting end 200 and the second connecting end 300.

[0052] The third clamping assembly 5 includes a fifth jaw 51, a sixth jaw 52, ​​and a third driving member 53 for driving the fifth jaw 51 and the sixth jaw 52 to move closer or further apart. The fourth clamping assembly 6 includes a seventh jaw 61, an eighth jaw 62, and a fourth driving member 63 for driving the seventh jaw 61 and the eighth jaw 62 to move closer or further apart. The driving direction of the third driving member 53 is perpendicular to the driving direction of the first driving member 23, and the driving direction of the fourth driving member 63 is perpendicular to the driving direction of the second driving member 33. This allows the first connecting end 200 and the second connecting end 300 to be clamped and fixed in two different directions, which helps improve the stability of the clamping between the first connecting end 200 and the second connecting end 300.

[0053] In some embodiments, a third limiting member 54 is provided between the fifth gripper 51 and the sixth gripper 52, and a fourth limiting member 64 is provided between the seventh gripper 61 and the eighth gripper 62. The structure and function of the third limiting member 54 and the fourth limiting member 64 are the same as those of the first limiting member 24, and will not be described in detail here.

[0054] Example 3

[0055] As a further optimization of Example 2, refer to Figure 10 The adsorption component 1 includes a first limiting block 11, a second limiting block 12, and a plurality of suction cups 13 disposed between the first limiting block 11 and the second limiting block 12. The number of suction cups 13 can be set according to actual needs. In this embodiment, the number of suction cups 13 is one. The first limiting block 11 and the second limiting block 12 are respectively used to abut against the opposite ends of the flexible board body 100 to maintain the horizontality of the flexible board body 100. The suction cups 13 are used to adsorb and fix the middle position of the flexible board body 100 to fix the flexible board body 100.

[0056] As a further optimization, a second buffer 14 is provided at the bottom of the first limiting block 11 and the bottom of the second limiting block 12. The second buffer 14 can be a silicone pad to protect the soft board body 100 and prevent the soft board body 100 from being crushed or scratched by the first limiting block 11 and / or the second limiting block 12.
