Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of auxiliary equipment for battery cell processing. Background Technology

[0002] In the production process of new energy battery modules, the cell loading process is unavoidable, which involves transferring the cells from the packaging box to the cell tray on the assembly line. However, since the spatial position of the cells on the cell tray is fixed, if the cell's position deviates from the tray's redundancy when the cell gripper picks up the cell, the cell may collide with the tray, leading to dangerous situations such as damage to the cell casing and leakage.

[0003] Therefore, how to accurately adjust the position of the cells during the cell loading process to avoid the problem of cells colliding with the tray has become a technical problem that urgently needs to be solved by those skilled in the art. Utility Model Content

[0004] To address the above problems, this utility model proposes a battery cell feeding and guiding mechanism, which solves the problem of large relative position deviations of the battery cells during feeding. By actively intervening in the guiding method, the battery cell positions are readjusted, effectively avoiding the problem of battery cells colliding with the tray.

[0005] The technical solution of this utility model is as follows: the battery cell feeding and guiding mechanism includes a welding frame, a battery cell transfer mechanism, a battery cell pushing mechanism, and a battery cell guiding mechanism;

[0006] The welding frame has a tray placement platform arranged along the X direction for placing battery cell trays. The battery cell guiding mechanism is fixedly installed on the welding frame and arranged parallel to one side of the tray placement platform. The battery cell guiding mechanism includes a fixed base plate arranged along the X direction and several guide plates arranged along the Y direction. The several guide plates are fixedly connected to the fixed base plate and are equidistantly distributed along the X direction.

[0007] The cell transfer mechanism and cell pushing mechanism are located on the side of the cell guiding mechanism facing away from the tray placement platform. These mechanisms are used to push the cells through the cell guiding mechanism. In this way, after the cells pass through several guide plates, they can be evenly and equidistantly arranged, thus accurately entering the subsequent cell trays.

[0008] The battery cell tray includes a tray base plate, battery cell partitions and battery cell baffles. Several battery cell partitions arranged along the Y direction are fixedly installed on the tray base plate and are equidistantly distributed along the X direction. The battery cell baffles are fixedly installed on the tray base plate and are located next to several battery cell partitions.

[0009] The guide plate corresponds one-to-one with the cell separator, and the spacing between adjacent guide plates is the same as the spacing between adjacent cell separators.

[0010] The mounting plate has multiple elongated mounting holes arranged along the X-axis, into which threaded bolts connected to the welded frame are inserted. This allows the mounting plate to be finely adjusted in the X-axis direction to accommodate cell trays in different initial positions.

[0011] The battery cell transfer mechanism includes a battery cell transfer platform arranged along the X direction, a battery cell transfer platform drive cylinder arranged along the Y direction, and a linear guide rail. The linear guide rail is fixedly installed on the welding frame, and the battery cell transfer platform is slidably installed on the linear guide rail. The cylinder body of the battery cell transfer platform drive cylinder is fixedly installed on the welding frame, and the piston rod of the battery cell transfer platform drive cylinder is connected to the battery cell transfer platform. The battery cell transfer platform is driven to reciprocate beside the battery cell guide mechanism by the battery cell transfer platform drive cylinder.

[0012] Multiple insulating pads arranged along the Y direction are fixedly installed on the battery cell transfer platform.

[0013] The cell pushing mechanism includes a push plate arranged along the X direction, a cell pushing plate driving cylinder arranged along the Y direction, and a push plate linear guide rail. The push plate linear guide rail is fixedly installed on the welding frame. The push plate is slidably installed on the push plate linear guide rail and is higher than the cell transfer platform. The cylinder body of the cell pushing plate driving cylinder is fixedly installed on the welding frame, and the piston rod of the cell pushing plate driving cylinder is connected to the push plate. The push plate is driven to reciprocate beside the cell guiding mechanism by the cell pushing plate driving cylinder.

[0014] This utility model has a simple structure and flexible operation. During operation, it can guide the battery cells at equal intervals and arrange them evenly before they enter the battery cell tray, ensuring that the battery cells can enter the battery cell tray accurately and smoothly. This effectively avoids dangerous situations such as battery cell leakage caused by collision between the battery cells and the battery cell partitions on the battery cell tray due to excessive deviation in battery cell position during the battery cell loading process.

Detailed Implementation

[0021] To clearly illustrate the technical features of this utility model, the following detailed description is provided through specific embodiments and in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0022] like Figure 1 As shown, the battery cell loading and guiding mechanism includes a battery cell tray 1, a welding frame 2, a battery cell transfer mechanism 3, a battery cell pushing mechanism 4, and a battery cell guiding mechanism 5. The battery cell transfer mechanism 3, the battery cell pushing mechanism 4, and the battery cell guiding mechanism 5 are all mounted on the welding frame 2, and the battery cell transfer mechanism 3 and the battery cell pushing mechanism 4 are driven to move by cylinders. The working process is as follows:

[0023] The robot gripper places the battery cell on the battery cell transfer mechanism 3. The battery cell transfer mechanism 3 retracts, and the battery cell moves with the battery cell transfer mechanism 3 to the battery cell guide mechanism 5. After that, the battery cell push mechanism 4 retracts and pushes the battery cell through the gap between the battery cell guide mechanisms 5 into the battery cell placement position of the battery cell tray 1.

[0024] like Figure 2 As shown, the battery cell tray 1 mainly consists of three parts: a tray base plate 6, battery cell partitions 7, and battery cell baffles 8. In the prior art, the battery cell gripper can directly place the battery cells between the battery cell partitions 7 on the tray.

[0025] like Figure 3 As shown, after the battery cell gripper places the battery cell on the insulating pad 12 on the battery cell transfer platform 10, the battery cell transfer platform drive cylinder 9 retracts, driving the battery cell transfer platform 10 to move the battery cell closer to the battery cell guide mechanism 5 along the linear guide rail 11.

[0026] like Figure 4 As shown, after the battery cell transfer mechanism 3 delivers the battery cell to the vicinity of the battery cell guide mechanism 5, the battery cell pusher plate drive cylinder 13 in the battery cell pusher mechanism 4 retracts, driving the pusher plate 15 to push the battery cell along the pusher plate linear guide rail 14, so that the battery cell passes through... Figure 5 The shown cell guiding mechanism 5 pushes the cell onto the cell tray 1. During the process, multiple guide plates 17 distributed at equal intervals ensure that the cell can accurately enter the cell tray 1.

[0027] There are many specific implementation methods for this utility model. The above description is only a preferred embodiment of this utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements can be made without departing from the principle of this utility model, and these improvements should also be considered within the protection scope of this utility model.
