Description
TECHNICAL FIELD
[0001] The utility model relates to battery transmission device technical field, specifically is battery input control mechanism. BACKGROUND
[0002] With the continuous development of society and the continuous progress of science and technology, the mechanization and automation production of battery has gradually become a development trend. In the automatic production and processing process of battery, the battery needs to be transmitted to another device for the next process after completing a process. The existing battery transmission device is a battery conveying channel arranged between two devices. The outlet of the battery conveying channel is provided with a rotating wheel for transferring the battery. The rotating wheel is provided with a clamping groove on the outer peripheral wall for clamping the battery. The front battery is conveyed forward by the pushing of the rear battery, and then enters the clamping groove of the rotating wheel one by one.
[0003] However, in actual application, it is difficult to ensure that the battery is accurately clamped in the clamping groove of the rotating wheel by relying only on the pushing force of the rear battery. There may be no battery in some clamping grooves, which causes trouble for subsequent processing and production. Therefore, how to solve the problem of insufficient pushing force of the battery during conveying has become an urgent problem to be solved. UTILITY MODEL CONTENT
[0004] The technical problem to be solved by the utility model is to overcome the defects of the above prior art and provide an input control mechanism that can provide a pushing force for the battery during transmission.
[0005] The technical solution of the utility model is to provide a battery input control mechanism with the following structure:
[0006] The battery conveying channel is used to convey the battery into the clamping groove of the rotating wheel. A driving assembly is connected to the rack. The driving assembly is in transmission connection with the rotating wheel and is used to drive the rotating wheel to rotate, thereby applying a forward pushing force to the passing battery.
[0007] Compared with the prior art, the battery input control mechanism of the utility model has the following advantages after adopting the above structure:
[0008] The utility model adds a rotating wheel to the battery conveying channel. The rotating wheel is driven to rotate by the driving assembly, thereby applying a forward pushing force to the passing battery. This avoids the situation that the clamping groove on the outer peripheral wall of the rotating wheel has no battery due to insufficient battery conveying rate, and ensures the smooth progress of subsequent production and processing.
[0009] Preferably, the outer peripheral wall of the dial wheel has several circumferentially evenly distributed grooves, which match the shape of the battery for inserting the passing battery. The drive assembly includes a drive motor and a magnetic coupling, with the drive motor and the dial wheel connected via the magnetic coupling. The grooves on the dial wheel allow for better application of thrust to the battery. To ensure the battery is smoothly inserted into the slot of the dial wheel, the speed of the drive motor cannot be too low. Therefore, adding a magnetic coupling between the drive motor and the dial wheel can stably control the torque applied to the dial wheel, preventing damage to the battery and components due to excessive torque and ensuring smooth subsequent production processing.
[0010] Preferably, the magnetic coupling includes a first magnetic shaft and a second magnetic shaft. The first magnetic shaft is connected to the rotating shaft of the dial wheel, and the second magnetic shaft is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor. The first magnetic shaft and the second magnetic shaft are spaced apart and magnetically attracted to each other.
[0011] Preferably, the battery transport channel includes a vertical channel, an arc-shaped channel, and a horizontal channel connected in sequence. The dial wheel is disposed on the arc-shaped channel and is used to push the batteries transported in the vertical channel to the horizontal channel. The horizontal channel is also provided with a flipping channel, which is spirally arranged and used to flip the passing batteries from a horizontal state to a vertical state. The batteries are laid flat during transport, while the slots on the dial wheel are vertically arranged. Therefore, a flipping channel is provided on the horizontal channel to allow the batteries to be flipped 90 degrees, making it convenient for the batteries to be inserted into the slots of the dial wheel.
[0012] Preferably, one side wall of the vertical channel is open, and a cover plate is connected to the open end of the vertical channel. Since the vertical channel is wavy, the battery may get stuck during transportation. In this case, the cover plate can be opened to facilitate the user to remove the stuck battery.
[0013] Preferably, a limiting component is connected to the outlet of the horizontal channel, the limiting component having a limiting block that can extend into or retract from the horizontal channel; a limiting cylinder is connected to the frame, the limiting cylinder being kinetically connected to the limiting block. When it is necessary to pause battery delivery, the limiting block can be driven by the limiting cylinder to extend into the horizontal channel, blocking battery delivery.
[0014] Preferably, the limiting component further includes a rotating block and a return spring. The rotating block is rotatably connected to the outer peripheral wall of the horizontal channel. One end of the return spring is connected to one side wall of the rotating block, and the other end abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the horizontal channel. The horizontal channel has a notch near its outlet. The limiting block is connected to the free end of the rotating block. The output end of the limiting cylinder abuts against the side wall of the rotating block away from the return spring, which drives the rotating block to rotate, thereby causing the limiting block to pass through the notch and extend into the horizontal channel.

[0021] The present invention will now be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and specific embodiments.

Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model. At the same time, the terms "first", "second", etc., are only used to distinguish the names of various components and do not have a primary or secondary relationship. Therefore, they should not be construed as limitations on this utility model.
[0023] like Figures 1-4As shown, this utility model discloses a battery input control mechanism: including a frame 1 and a battery conveying channel 2 disposed on the frame 1. The battery conveying channel 2 is used to convey batteries into the slots of the rotating wheel. A dial 3 is rotatably connected to the battery conveying channel 2. A drive assembly 4 is connected to the frame 1. The drive assembly 4 is connected to the dial 3 for transmission and is used to drive the dial 3 to rotate, thereby applying a forward thrust to the passing battery.
[0024] This invention adds a dial wheel 3 to the battery conveying channel 2. The dial wheel 3 is driven to rotate by the drive component 4, thereby applying a forward thrust to the passing batteries. This avoids the situation where there are no batteries in the slots on the outer wall of the wheel due to insufficient battery conveying speed, and ensures the smooth progress of subsequent production processing.
[0025] like Figures 1-3 As shown, the outer peripheral wall of the dial wheel 3 is provided with several circumferentially evenly distributed grooves 31. The grooves 31 are matched with the shape of the battery and are used to allow the passing battery to be inserted, so as to better apply pushing force to the battery. The drive assembly 4 includes a drive motor 41 and a magnetic coupling 42. The drive motor 41 and the dial wheel 3 are connected by transmission through the magnetic coupling 42.
[0026] For example Figure 2 As shown, the magnetic coupling 42 includes a first magnetic shaft 421 and a second magnetic shaft 422. The first magnetic shaft 421 is connected to the rotating shaft of the dial wheel 3, and the second magnetic shaft 422 is connected to the output shaft of the drive motor 41. The first magnetic shaft 421 and the second magnetic shaft 422 are spaced apart and magnetically attracted to each other.
[0027] In order for the battery to be smoothly inserted into the slot of the rotating wheel, the speed of the drive motor 41 cannot be too low. Therefore, a magnetic coupling 42 is added between the drive motor 41 and the dial wheel 3. When the drive motor 41 drives the second magnetic shaft 422 to rotate, the second magnetic shaft 422 drives the first magnetic shaft 421 to rotate through magnetic force, thereby realizing the rotation of the dial wheel 3. The magnetic coupling 42 can apply sufficient torque to the dial wheel 3 while avoiding damage to the drive motor 41 due to excessive torque. Especially when the battery being transported is stuck, the torque output by the drive motor 41 is greater than the magnetic force between the first magnetic shaft 421 and the second magnetic shaft 422, so the drive motor 41 can run idle without being damaged.
[0028] For example Figure 3 As shown, the battery transport channel 2 includes a vertical channel 21, an arc-shaped channel 22 and a horizontal channel 23 connected in sequence. A dial 3 is set on the arc-shaped channel 22 to push the battery transported by the vertical channel 21 to the horizontal channel 23. The horizontal channel 23 is also provided with a flipping channel 24, which is spirally arranged to flip the passing battery from the horizontal state to the vertical state.
[0029] The battery is laid flat during transmission, while the slot on the rotating wheel is set vertically. Therefore, a flipping channel 24 is set on the horizontal channel 23 to allow the battery to be flipped 90 degrees, so that the battery can be easily inserted into the slot of the rotating wheel.
[0030] like Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the vertical channel 21 is wavy, and the battery may get stuck during transmission. Therefore, this invention sets one side wall of the vertical channel 21 as an open end. A cover plate 25 is connected to the open end of the vertical channel 21. When the battery gets stuck in the vertical channel 21, the cover plate 25 can be opened to facilitate the user to take out the battery.
[0031] like Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, a limiting component 5 is connected to the outlet of the horizontal channel 23. The limiting component 5 has a limiting block 51 that can extend into or retract from the horizontal channel 23. A limiting cylinder 52 is connected to the frame 1, and the limiting cylinder 52 is kinetically connected to the limiting block 51.
[0032] The limiting component 5 also includes a rotating block 53 and a return spring 54. The rotating block 53 is rotatably connected to the outer peripheral wall of the horizontal channel 23. One end of the return spring 54 is connected to one side wall of the rotating block 53, and the other end abuts against the outer peripheral wall of the horizontal channel 23. The horizontal channel 23 has a notch 231 near its outlet. The limiting block 51 is connected to the free end of the rotating block 53. The output end of the limiting cylinder 52 abuts against the side wall of the rotating block 53 away from the return spring 54, which is used to drive the rotating block 53 to rotate, thereby driving the limiting block 51 to pass through the notch 231 and extend into the horizontal channel 23.
[0033] When it is necessary to pause battery delivery, the rotating block 53 can be driven to rotate by the limit cylinder 52, thereby causing the limit block 51 to extend into the horizontal channel 23 and block the delivery of the battery.
[0034] The above description is only a specific embodiment of this utility model, but the protection scope of this utility model is not limited thereto. Any changes or substitutions that can be easily conceived by those skilled in the art within the technical scope disclosed in this utility model should be included within the protection scope of this utility model. Therefore, the protection scope of this utility model should be determined by the protection scope of the claims.
