A finished product unloading mechanism for battery cap processing

Abstract

This utility model discloses a finished product unloading mechanism for battery cap processing, including a push motor and a lifting driver installed on the front side of the push motor. The front outer wall of the lifting driver is provided with a fixed seat, and the front side of the fixed seat is provided with two fixed tubes. The lower side of each of the two fixed tubes is provided with a suction cup to fit against the surface of the battery cap. The upper outer wall of each of the two fixed tubes is provided with an air guide tube to connect with an external suction pump. By installing a collar, a slip ring, and a sliding groove, the presence of the slip ring extends the position of the suction cup, allowing the suction cup to contact the battery cap after being lowered to its maximum position by the lifting driver, significantly improving the success rate of adsorption. At the same time, the sliding process of the slip ring in the sliding groove is relatively stable, which can buffer the impact force of the suction cup descending and avoid damage to the battery cap due to excessive descent speed or uneven force.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of battery manufacturing equipment, specifically relating to a finished product unloading mechanism for battery cap processing. Background Technology

[0002] The finished product unloading mechanism used for battery cap processing is a crucial part of the battery manufacturing process. It is mainly responsible for smoothly removing the processed battery caps from the processing equipment and collecting or transferring them according to certain rules for subsequent production processes such as packaging and testing.

[0003] However, when the suction cup approaches the battery cover for adsorption, the distance between the downward-moving suction cup and the battery cover is difficult to control. In some cases, the suction cup surface fails to make contact with the battery cover after moving down to its maximum distance. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this invention is to provide a finished product unloading mechanism for battery cap processing, in order to solve the problem mentioned in the background art where the suction cup surface fails to make contact with the battery cap after the suction cup moves down to its maximum distance.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a finished product unloading mechanism for battery cap processing, comprising a push motor and a lifting driver installed on the front side of the push motor;

[0006] A fixing seat is provided on the front outer wall of the lifting driver;

[0007] Two fixing tubes are provided on the front side of the fixing base;

[0008] The lower side of both fixing tubes is provided with suction cups to fit the surface of the battery cap, and the upper outer wall of both fixing tubes is provided with air guide tubes to connect with an external suction pump.

[0009] Both of the two air ducts have a collar fixedly connected to their lowest circular outer wall. The lower outer wall of each collar has a downward-opening groove. The upper outer wall of each of the two suction cups has a sliding ring fixedly connected to its upper end, which is inserted into the groove.

[0010] Preferably, baffles are fixedly connected to the upper outer walls of both slip rings to limit the maximum downward sliding distance of the slip rings.

[0011] Preferably, the inner circular walls of both fixed tubes are provided with inner rings, and a connecting layer is provided between the two inner rings and the suction cup to restrict the position of the inner rings.

[0012] Preferably, both baffles are fitted with leak-proof pads on their outer sides.

[0013] Preferably, the connecting layer, inner ring, and leak-proof gasket are all made of rubber material.

[0014] Preferably, a push rod is provided between the push motor and the lifting drive to push the lifting drive to move back and forth, and a first guide rod is provided between the push motor and the lifting drive and on both sides of the push rod to guide the direction of the lifting drive.

[0015] Preferably, a connecting block is provided between the lifting driver and the fixed base to drive the fixed base to move up and down, and a second guide rod is provided between the two connecting blocks to guide the direction of the fixed base.

[0016] Preferably, a fixing block is fixedly connected to the front outer wall of the fixing base, and fixing rings are provided on the upper outer wall of the fixing block near the left and right sides to restrict the position of the fixing tube. Indicator lights are provided on the front outer wall of the fixing base near the left and right sides.

[0017] Compared with the prior art, this utility model provides a finished product unloading mechanism for battery cap processing, which has the following beneficial effects:

[0018] By installing a collar, slip ring, and slide groove, when the suction cup moves downward, the top of the slip ring is positioned at the bottom of the slide groove, extending the suction cup's position downward. The slip ring can slide up and down inside the slide groove. When the suction cup moves to its maximum position, if it fails to make contact with the battery cap, the extended position of the suction cup due to the slip ring ensures that the suction cup can contact the battery cap after being lowered to its maximum position by the lifting driver. This significantly improves the success rate of adsorption. At the same time, the sliding process of the slip ring within the slide groove is relatively stable, which can buffer the impact force of the suction cup's descent and prevent damage to the battery cap due to excessive descent speed or uneven force.

[0024] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0025] This utility model provides, for example Figure 1-4 The shown is a finished product unloading mechanism for battery cap processing, including a push motor 1 and a lifting drive 2 installed in front of the push motor 1;

[0026] A fixing seat 3 is provided on the front outer wall of the lifting drive 2;

[0027] Two fixing tubes 13 are provided on the front side of the fixing base 3;

[0028] Suction cups 5 are provided on the lower side of both fixed tubes 13 to fit the surface of the battery cap. Air guide pipes 7 are provided inside the upper outer wall of both fixed tubes 13 to connect with the external suction pump. When the battery cap is unloaded, the battery cap is moved to the designated position by the external vibrating feeder. The control system starts the push motor 1, which drives the lifting driver 2 to work, so that the fixed seat 3 and fixed tube 13 together with the suction cups 5 start to move forward. After moving to the designated distance, the lifting driver 2 starts to work, driving the fixed tube 13 and suction cups 5 to move down. At this time, the suction cups 5 contact or approach the battery cap. Then the external air pump is started, and the air guide pipe 7 draws out the air to form a negative pressure, so that the suction cups 5 fit tightly against the surface of the battery cap. Then the lifting driver 2 is reset and the external suction pump is turned off, and the battery cap is put down to complete the unloading operation. Then the above operation can be repeated to complete the continuous unloading operation.

[0029] Both air ducts 7 have a collar 14 fixedly connected to the lowest side of their circular outer walls. The lower outer walls of both collars 14 have downward-opening grooves 19. The upper outer walls of both suction cups 5 have a sliding ring 16 fixedly connected to them, which inserts upward into the grooves 19. The sliding ring 16 slides downward in the grooves 19, and the top of the sliding ring 16 can reach the lowest position of the grooves 19, thereby extending the position of the suction cups 5 downward. Even if the suction cups 5 fail to make contact with the battery cap after being moved to the maximum position by the lifting driver 2, the presence of the sliding rings 16 and the grooves 19 can extend the position of the suction cups 5 and increase the possibility of contact with the battery cap.

[0030] like Figure 4 As shown, baffles 15 are fixedly connected to the upper outer walls of both slip rings 16 to limit the maximum downward sliding distance of the slip rings 16.

[0031] When the slip ring 16 reaches a certain position, the baffle 15 will contact the lower inner wall of the slide groove 19, preventing the slip ring 16 from continuing to slide down.

[0032] like Figure 4 As shown, the inner walls of the two fixed tubes 13 are provided with inner rings 18, and a connecting layer 17 is provided between the two inner rings 18 and the suction cup 5 to restrict the position of the inner rings 18.

[0033] The inner ring 18 is connected to the suction cup 5 through the connecting layer 17. It can keep the suction cup 5 in a relatively stable position in the fixing tube 13, and prevent the suction cup 5 from shaking or shifting in the horizontal direction, thereby ensuring that the suction cup 5 can accurately adhere to the surface of the battery cap when adsorbing the battery cap.

[0034] like Figure 4 As shown, both baffles 15 are fitted with leak-proof pads 20 on their outer sides. The connecting layer 17, the inner ring 18, and the leak-proof pads 20 are all made of rubber.

[0035] The leak-proof pad 20 can fill the tiny gap between the slip ring 16 and the groove 19. By utilizing the elasticity and sealing properties of the rubber material, it can effectively prevent gas leakage, ensure the stability of the negative pressure inside the suction cup 5, and ensure the reliability of the adsorption process.

[0036] like Figure 2 As shown, a push rod 10 is provided between the push motor 1 and the lifting drive 2 to push the lifting drive 2 to move back and forth. First guide rods 9 are provided between the push motor 1 and the lifting drive 2 and on both sides of the push rod 10 to guide the direction of the lifting drive 2.

[0037] When the drive motor 1 is started, the motor shaft rotates. Through the transmission mechanism connected to the push rod 10, the rotational motion of the motor is converted into linear motion of the push rod 10 along the direction of the first guide rod 9. The linear motion of the push rod 10 drives the lifting drive 2 to move in the front-back direction.

[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, a connecting block 11 is provided between the lifting drive 2 and the fixed base 3 to drive the fixed base 3 to move up and down. A second guide rod 12 is provided between the two connecting blocks 11 to guide the direction of the fixed base 3.

[0039] When the lifting driver 2 extends or retracts, the connecting block 11 moves accordingly, thereby driving the fixed seat 3 to move up and down, and thus controlling the suction cup 5 on the fixed seat 3 to move closer to or further away from the battery cap in the vertical direction, realizing the action of adsorption and unloading. The second guide rod 12 restricts the fixed seat 3 to only move vertically along its axis, ensuring the stability and accuracy of the fixed seat 3 in the vertical direction.

[0040] like Figure 1 As shown, a fixing block 4 is fixedly connected to the front outer wall of the fixing base 3. Fixing rings 6 are provided on the upper outer wall of the fixing block 4 near the left and right sides to restrict the position of the fixing tube 13. Indicator lights 8 are provided on the front outer wall of the fixing base 3 near the left and right sides.

[0041] The inner diameter of the fixing ring 6 is slightly larger than the outer diameter of the fixing tube 13. The fixing tube 13 passes through the fixing ring 6. Through the friction between the inner wall of the fixing ring 6 and the outer wall of the fixing tube 13, as well as the radial constraint of the fixing ring 6 on the fixing tube 13, the fixing tube 13 is firmly fixed on the fixing seat 3. The indicator light 8 can be connected to the control system of the equipment and display different colors or flashing frequencies according to different operating stages or fault conditions of the equipment.

[0042] The implementation principle of this embodiment is as follows: During the battery cap unloading process, an external vibrating feeder moves the battery cap to a designated position. The control system starts the drive motor 1, which in turn drives the lifting driver 2 to move the fixing base 3 and fixing tube 13, along with the suction cup 5, forward. After moving to a designated distance, the lifting driver 2 starts working, moving the fixing tube 13 and suction cup 5 downward. At this time, the suction cup 5 contacts or approaches the battery cap. Subsequently, an external air pump is started, and the air guide pipe 7 extracts air to create a negative pressure, causing the suction cup 5 to tightly adhere to the surface of the battery cap. Then, the lifting driver 2 resets and the external suction pump is turned off. The battery cap is then lowered to complete the unloading operation. The above operation can then be repeated to complete the continuous unloading operation. The slip ring 16 slides downward in the slide groove 19. The top of the slip ring 16 can reach the lowest position of the slide groove 19, thereby extending the position of the suction cup 5 downward. Even if the suction cup 5 fails to make contact with the battery cap after the lifting driver 2 moves down to the maximum position, the presence of the slip ring 16 and the slide groove 19 can extend the position of the suction cup 5 and increase the possibility of contacting the battery cap.

[0043] Finally, it should be noted that the above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model and is not intended to limit the present utility model. Although the present utility model has been described in detail with reference to the foregoing embodiments, those skilled in the art can still modify the technical solutions described in the foregoing embodiments or make equivalent substitutions for some of the technical features. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of the present utility model should be included within the protection scope of the present utility model.
