Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium battery processing equipment technology, and in particular to a square shell opening shaping device. Background Technology
[0002] Currently, most lithium battery casings are square, with openings on both sides for cell insertion. Due to the thin walls of the square casing, the openings are prone to deformation during processing and transportation, preventing cell insertion. Therefore, the openings of the square casing require shaping after processing. In existing technology, the square casing is typically placed horizontally, and a shaping device is used to press the openings to achieve the desired shape. For example, Chinese utility model patent CN221239651U discloses a cell insertion centering and clamping device and battery production equipment, including a clamping fixture, a first moving clamping mechanism, and a second moving clamping mechanism. The first moving clamping mechanism includes a first moving component, a first laser ranging component, and a first clamping component, with the first clamping component mounted at the end of the first moving component. The second moving clamping mechanism includes a second moving component, a second laser ranging component, and a second clamping component, with the second clamping component mounted at the end of the second moving component.
[0003] However, when shaping the opening of a square shell, the existing shaping device does not effectively limit the outer wall of the opening, resulting in a certain degree of deviation in the shape of the opening after shaping, which further affects the subsequent assembly process. Utility Model Content

[0025] The present invention will be further described below with reference to the embodiments and accompanying drawings.
[0026] refer to Figure 1 , Figure 2 A square housing opening shaping device includes a shaping table 1, on which two parallel and spaced-apart first linear guide rails 101 are arranged. The first linear guide rails 101 extend along the length direction of the shaping table 1. Two opposing shaping mechanisms 2 are slidably connected to the two first linear guide rails 101. A placement platform 3 for horizontally placing the square housing 7 is provided between the two shaping mechanisms 2.
[0027] refer to Figure 3 , Figure 4 , Figure 5 The shaping mechanism 2 includes a shaping frame 21, a pressing and telescopic mechanism 22, and a shaping block 23. Vertically arranged reference plates 4 are provided on opposite sides of the two shaping frames 21. The reference plate 4 includes a reference frame 41 and a shaping plate 42. The shaping plate 42 is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the reference frame 41. A limiting hole 201 is passed through the shaping plate 42. The hollow area of the reference frame 41 is connected to the limiting hole 201. A vertically arranged baffle 202 is provided on the side of the limiting hole 201 away from the placement table 3.
[0028] The shaping frame 21 has two parallel and spaced-apart support plates 204. A second linear guide rail 205 is mounted on each support plate 204, extending along the length of the shaping table 1. The shaping block 23 is slidably connected to the two second linear guide rails 205. Two symmetrically arranged guide posts 206 are mounted on the inner wall of the reference frame 41. Guide sleeves 207 are mounted on both sides of the shaping block 23, and are fitted and slidably connected to the guide posts 206 to guide the stable sliding of the shaping block 23. The outer wall of the shaping block 23 has a clearance groove 203 for avoiding the baffle 202. The pressing telescopic mechanism 22 is a telescopic cylinder or an electric push rod, and the telescopic end of the pressing telescopic mechanism 22 is connected to the corresponding shaping block 23. The shaping block 23 is driven by the pressing telescopic mechanism 22 and inserted into the limiting hole 201 so that a shaping space 5 for shaping the opening of the square shell 7 is formed between the inner wall of the limiting hole 201 and the outer wall of the shaping block 23.
[0029] The shaping table 1 is equipped with two opposing translational telescopic mechanisms 102. Each translational telescopic mechanism 102 is a telescopic cylinder or an electric push rod, and its telescopic end is connected to the corresponding shaping frame 21. The shaping table 1 is also equipped with two symmetrically arranged control switches 103. Each control switch 103 is a push-button switch. Adjacent pressing telescopic mechanisms 22 and translational telescopic mechanisms 102 are electrically connected to and controlled by their respective control switches 103. The control switches 103 control the corresponding translational telescopic mechanism 102 to drive the corresponding shaping frame 21 to slide, allowing the operator to adjust the distance between the two shaping mechanisms 2 as needed to accommodate square housings 7 of different lengths. This ensures that both sides of the square housing 7 can be shaped simultaneously.
[0030] When using this shaping device, the operator first places the square housing 7 on the placement platform 3 so that the two openings of the square housing 7 correspond to the two shaping mechanisms 2 respectively. The operator then operates two control switches 103 with both hands to activate the extension of the two translation telescopic mechanisms 102, so that the two shaping mechanisms 2 move closer to each other. The shaping frame 21 moves closer to the opening side of the corresponding square housing 7, and the opening side of the square housing 7 is inserted into the corresponding limiting hole 201. The baffle 202 abuts against the opening side of the square housing 7, so that the two shaping frames 21 are positioned on both sides of the square housing 7 respectively. At the same time, the limiting hole 201 limits the opening side of the square housing 7. Then, the pressing telescopic mechanism 22 drives the shaping pressure block 23 to extend so that the shaping pressure block 23 is inserted into the limiting hole 201, thereby forming a shaping space 5 that can accurately shape the opening of the square housing 7. The shaping pressure block 23 applies pressure to the opening of the square housing 7, thereby completing the shaping process of the opening, ensuring that the shape of the opening of the square housing 7 after shaping is accurate, and improving the accuracy and efficiency of subsequent assembly.
[0031] refer to Figure 6 , Figure 7 The placement platform 3 includes a base 31, two placement plates 32, and a movable cover plate 33. The two placement plates 32 are symmetrically arranged on the base 31. A placement groove 301 is provided on the top surface of the placement plate 32. The placement groove 301 is adapted to the shape of the open side of the square shell 7. Two hinges 302 are symmetrically arranged on the side of the movable cover plate 33. The two hinges 302 are respectively provided on the side of the two placement plates 32 so that the movable cover plate 33 can be hinged on the two placement plates 32. The operator can open the movable cover plate 33 so that the square shell 7 can be aligned and inserted into the two placement grooves 301. After that, the operator closes the movable cover plate 33 so that the inner side wall of the movable cover plate 33 and the inner wall of the placement groove 301 cooperate to form a clamping space 6 for clamping the square shell 7.
[0032] Preferably, the movable cover plate 33 is provided with two opposing support members 304 on the side away from the hinge 302. The bottom surface of the support member 304 abuts against the top surface of its corresponding placement plate 32. Each of the two support members 304 is provided with a downwardly extending limiting plate 305 on the opposite side. The limiting plate 305 and the support member 304 cooperate to form an L-shaped structure. The limiting plate 305 abuts against the side wall of its corresponding placement plate 32 to ensure that the movable cover plate 33 closes with the two placement plates 32 in the correct position.
[0033] Preferably, the limiting plate 305 is made of magnetic material, and a magnetic block 306 is provided on the side wall of the placement plate 32 near the limiting plate 305. The magnetic force between the magnetic block 306 and the limiting plate 305 is an attraction force to maintain the closed position of the movable cover 33 and prevent the movable cover 33 from opening due to external impact.
[0034] Preferably, a positioning block 303 is provided at the bottom of the base 31, and a positioning groove 104 is provided on the shaping table 1 for the positioning block 303 to be inserted. The positioning block 303 and the positioning groove 104 are connected by bolts to achieve a detachable connection, so that the staff can replace the placement table 3 of the corresponding specification according to the specifications of the square shell 7, thereby improving the applicability of the shaping device.
[0035] Of course, the above are just typical examples of this utility model. In addition, this utility model may have many other specific implementation methods. All technical solutions formed by equivalent substitution or equivalent transformation fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
