Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of anti-pressure basket hook devices, and in particular to an anti-pressure basket hook device for trough-type cleaning equipment. Background Technology
[0002] The anti-pressure basket hook device is designed to prevent the robotic arm from pressing on the upper edge of the basket due to deformation of the tank or hook misalignment in the cleaning equipment. It is usually achieved by optimizing the hook structure or introducing an automatic calibration system to ensure that the hook can accurately align with the basket opening during operation, avoiding damage to the battery cells and equipment downtime due to misoperation or equipment failure.
[0003] Existing technologies, such as the utility model patent with publication number CN206899242U, disclose a cylinder-driven hook device for a robotic arm. This patent uses a fixed frame, which is an inverted U-shaped structure. The fixed end of the driving cylinder is fixed at the center of the inverted U-shaped structure, and the telescopic rod of the driving cylinder is vertically upward. The end of the telescopic rod is fixedly connected to the center of a horizontal driving rod. The ends of the two arms of the inverted U-shaped structure are rotatably connected to the corners of an L-shaped hook mechanism. The two arms of the L-shaped hook mechanism are a hook and a connecting rod, with the hook pointing downward and the connecting rod placed horizontally. A horizontal strip-shaped limiting groove is formed at the end of the connecting rod away from the corner of the L-shaped hook mechanism. Each end of the horizontal driving rod is connected to one end of a vertically placed limiting guide rod, and the other end of the limiting guide rod is slidably connected to the horizontal strip-shaped limiting groove by a movable pin. The use of a linkage mechanism to achieve hook advance and retraction avoids the failure of straight-in and straight-out movements, reduces energy consumption, and ensures stable operation.
[0004] The inventors discovered in their daily work that in existing tank-type cleaning equipment, the baskets are transported by the horizontal movement and vertical lifting of the robotic arm, with hooks connecting to the basket openings. However, long-term use can cause the tank to deform and the hooks to deviate from the center of the opening. When the deviation exceeds 10mm, the robotic arm cannot enter the inclined surface of the opening and may press on the upper edge of the basket. At this point, the equipment will alarm and stop, requiring manual intervention. If the issue is not addressed promptly, the battery cells may become unusable, and the downtime will affect production, leading to a decrease in equipment output.
[0005] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a new type of anti-pressure basket hook device for trough-type cleaning equipment to solve the above-mentioned technical problems. Utility Model Content

[0029] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of this utility model clearer, the present utility model will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments. It should be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the present utility model and are not intended to limit the present utility model.
[0030] The specific implementation of this utility model will be described in detail below with reference to specific embodiments.
[0031] Please see Figure 1 The present invention provides a trough-type cleaning equipment anti-pressure basket hook device, comprising: a mounting plate 1 and a basket body 2, wherein a plurality of connecting rods 5 are installed inside the basket body 2, a hook structure 3 is provided on the lower surface of the mounting plate 1, and an auxiliary structure 4 is provided on the arc surface of the plurality of connecting rods 5.
[0032] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 3The hook structure 3 includes two robotic arms 301, four basket openings 310, and four inclined surfaces 308. The basket openings 310 and the inclined surfaces 308 are interconnected. Two basket-pressing lifts 302 are installed on the side of the two robotic arms 301 that are close to each other. Two basket-pressing sensors 306 are installed inside the basket-pressing lifts 302. A rotating shaft 304 is fixedly connected to the side of the basket-pressing lifts 302 away from the robotic arms 301. A rotating hook 307 is rotatably connected to the arc surface of the rotating shaft 304. Two spring blocks 303 are fixedly connected to the side of the basket-pressing lifts 302 away from the robotic arms 301. A spring body 305 is provided on the side of the two spring blocks 303 and the rotating hook 307 that are close to each other. The two ends of the spring body 305 are fixedly connected to the spring blocks 303 and the rotating hook 307 respectively. A hook body 309 is fixedly connected to the side of the rotating hook 307 away from the basket-pressing lifts 302. The system ensures no machine shutdown in the event of basket pressure, reducing cell and production capacity loss. It features an early warning function for slot misalignment; the left and right basket pressure sensors 306 emit alarm signals after the hook rotates. Personnel can recalibrate the slots during maintenance and liquid changes, improving work efficiency. A bellows 311 is fitted onto the arc surface of the spring body 305, with both ends of the bellows 311 fixedly connected to the rotating hook 307 and the spring stop 303, respectively. The bellows 311 protects the spring, preventing liquid splashing onto it during battery cleaning and extending its lifespan. Several anti-slip grooves 312 are evenly distributed on the arc surface of the hook body 309. The anti-slip texture 312 increases the friction between the hook body 309 and the inner wall of the basket opening 310, preventing slippage. The hook body 309 is made of stainless steel. Stainless steel has high strength and good wear resistance, preventing deformation of the hook body 309 during short-term use.
[0033] In the embodiments of this utility model, please refer to Figure 4The auxiliary structure 4 includes several baffles 41, which are slidably connected to several connecting rods 5. A fixing frame 42 is fixedly connected to one side of the baffle 41. A lead screw 45 is threadedly connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 42. Two positioning rods 43 are slidably connected to the inner wall of the fixing frame 42. A pressing block 44 is fixedly connected to one end of the two positioning rods 43 near the baffle 41. The pressing block 44 is rotatably connected to the lead screw 45. When personnel need to place the battery on the connecting rod 5 for cleaning, they can move the baffles 41 to a suitable position and then rotate the lead screw 45 until the pressing block 44 presses against one of the connecting rods 5, thereby isolating the battery and preventing collisions between batteries during the movement of the flower basket body 2. A protective pad 47 is fixedly connected to the side of the pressing block 44 near the connecting rod 5, and the protective pad 47 abuts against one of the connecting rods 5. The protective pad 47 protects the connecting rod 5 and the pressing block 44, preventing direct contact between the pressing block 44 and the connecting rod 5. A rotating rod 46 with a circular cross-section is fixedly connected to the inner wall of the lead screw 45. The rotating rod 46 allows for easy rotation of the lead screw 45, improving operational convenience.
[0034] The working principle of the anti-pressure basket hook device for a trough-type cleaning equipment provided by this utility model is as follows: When personnel need to remove the basket body 2 from the trough of the cleaning equipment, the mounting plate 1 can be moved first. The mounting plate 1 drives the two robotic arms 301 to move. When the robotic arms 301 enter the trough above the basket body 2, the robotic arms 301 will drive the rotating hook 307 and other structures to descend. Under normal circumstances, the hook body 309 will directly enter the inclined surface 308 of the trough opening. When the robotic arms 301 descend to the lower position, the robotic arms 301 will move laterally to the hook-taking position and then rise. The hook body 309 will hook the hook of the basket to realize the picking and placing of the basket in the trough. The anti-slip texture 312 opened on the arc surface of the hook body 309 can increase the friction between the hook body 309 and the inner wall of the basket trough opening 310, which can prevent the hook body 309 from hitting the inner wall of the basket trough opening 310. When an abnormality occurs, the relative position of the hook body 309 and the slot inclined surface 308 will shift. Before the robotic arm 301 descends to the lower position, the hook body 309 will press against the slot inclined surface 308. The hook body 309 and the rotating shaft 304 are not on the same vertical line. Under the combined action of the slot inclined surface 308 and the rotating shaft 304, the rotating hook 307 will rotate to the left or right. The hook body 309 will also continue to descend along the slot inclined surface 308. When the robotic arm 301 descends to the lower position and moves horizontally, under the action of the spring bodies 305 on both sides of the rotating hook 307, the rotating hook 307 will return from the rotating state to the vertical state. The corrugated tube 311 on the arc surface of the spring body 305 can protect the spring and prevent liquid from splashing onto the spring during the cleaning of the battery, which would affect the service life of the spring and ensure normal hooking of the basket body 2. When the pressure basket causes the rotating hook 307 to rotate, the rotating hook 307 will block the pressure basket sensors 306 on both sides from issuing an alarm signal. At this time, the equipment does not need to be stopped and can continue to operate. When changing the liquid or performing maintenance, the equipment personnel will then correct the tank with the alarm. The hook body 309 is made of stainless steel plate. Stainless steel plate has high strength and good wear resistance, which can prevent the hook body 309 from deforming during short-term use.
[0035] In addition, when personnel need to clean the battery, they can first move several baffles 41. The baffles 41 drive the fixed frame 42 to move, the fixed frame 42 drives the two positioning rods 43 and the lead screw 45 to move, the two positioning rods 43 and the lead screw 45 drive the pressing block 44 to move, the lead screw 45 drives the rotating rod 46 to move, and the pressing block 44 drives the protective pad 47 to move, until the several baffles 41 are moved to the appropriate position. Then, the rotating rod 46 is used to rotate, which drives the lead screw 45 to rotate. The rotating rod 46 makes it easy for personnel to rotate the lead screw 45, which can improve the convenience of operation. Then, the lead screw 45 drives the pressing block 44 to move closer to the connecting rod 5. The pressing block 44 drives the two positioning rods 43 and the protective pad 47 to move closer to the connecting rod 5, until the protective pad 47 abuts against one of the connecting rods 5. The protective pad 47 can protect the connecting rod 5 and the pressing block 44 and prevent the pressing block 44 from directly contacting the connecting rod 5.
