Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the technical field of battery production equipment, and in particular relates to a limiting bracket structure for receiving electrode plates. Background Technology

[0002] In the battery plate production process, the grid mesh belt is continuously passed through the coating machine, which squeezes and evenly coats the lead paste onto the grid to form wet plates. After curing and drying, the wet plates are then processed to form dry plates.

[0003] After the dry plates are conveyed out of the equipment by the conveyor mechanism, they need to be manually collected. The plates are stacked on the bracket in a certain number, and the tabs of the plates need to be aligned. The bracket is lowered by the telescopic device, and the stacked plates are then transported to the next process on another conveyor line.

[0004] However, in the current production process, due to the lack of markings and limits on the brackets, operator fatigue, or negligence by new employees, there are often cases where there are more or fewer plates in a stack, resulting in discrepancies in the number of stacked plates and causing inconvenience to subsequent production. Utility Model Content

[0005] The purpose of this utility model is to provide a limiting bracket structure for collecting electrode plates. By opening a flat cut surface on the side stop post, the stacking height of the electrode plates is referenced by the lower end of the flat cut surface to determine the number of electrode plates to be stacked. This solves the problem that existing manual stacking easily results in too many or too few plates, which leads to inconvenience in subsequent production.

[0006] To solve the above-mentioned technical problems, this utility model is achieved through the following technical solution:

[0007] This utility model relates to a limiting bracket structure for collecting electrode plates, comprising a frame, a telescopic device connected to the frame, and a bracket fixedly connected to the telescopic end of the telescopic device. The bracket includes a base plate, on which two rows of limiting posts and one row of side stops are fixedly connected. The two rows of limiting posts limit the position of the electrode plates in the length direction. The row of side stops is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the two rows of limiting posts and limits the position of the electrode plates in the width direction. The side stops have a flat cut surface with the upper end facing downward, which is used to refer to the stacking height of the electrode plates through the lower end of the flat cut surface to determine the number of electrode plates to be stacked.

[0008] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the side baffles are movably interlocked with the base plate, which facilitates flexible adjustment of the upper and lower positions of the side baffles according to the number of stacked electrode plates; wherein, the lower surface of the base plate is fixedly connected with a limiting guide sleeve that is fitted with one side baffle each; the side wall of the limiting guide sleeve is threaded with a screw for fixing the position of the side baffles by the screw.

[0009] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, two of the side stops in a row are movably inserted with guide rods. One end of the two guide rods is fixedly connected to a push plate, and the other end is fixedly connected to a push rod. The lower surface of the push plate is flush with the lower end of the flat cut surface, and is used to push the push plate by the push rod, so that the electrode plate that is higher than the lower end of the flat cut surface is pushed towards the outside of the bracket.

[0010] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the guide rod is arranged perpendicular to the flat cut surface.

[0011] As a preferred embodiment of this utility model, the guide rod is fitted with a compression spring, with one end of the compression spring abutting against the push rod and the other end abutting against the side stop post. The compression spring pushes the push rod so that the side of the push plate is in close contact with the flat cut surface.

[0012] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, the thickness of the pusher plate is less than or equal to the opening depth of the flat section, so that the pusher plate will not interfere with the stacking position of the electrode plates.

[0013] As a preferred technical solution of this utility model, in the two rows of limiting posts, one row of limiting posts is arranged with a position to avoid the electrode tabs, and the other row is provided with limiting posts corresponding to this position, which is used to limit the orientation of the electrode tabs when the electrode plate is placed.

[0014] This utility model has the following beneficial effects:

[0015] This invention features two rows of limiting posts and one row of side stops connected to a base plate. The two rows of limiting posts limit the position of the electrode plates along their length, while the row of side stops limits the position of the electrode plates along their width. Each side stop has a flat cut surface facing downwards, which serves as a reference for determining the stacking height of the electrode plates. This prevents the occurrence of too many or too few plates during manual stacking, ensuring a consistent number of stacked electrode plates and improving the convenience of subsequent production.

[0016] Of course, any product implementing this utility model does not necessarily need to achieve all of the advantages described above at the same time. Attached Figure Description

[0029] 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 skilled in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0030] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "opening", "upper", "lower", "thickness", "top", "middle", "length", "inner", "around" and other terms indicating orientation or positional relationship are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and do not indicate or imply that the components or elements referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0031] Please see Figure 1 and 4 As shown, this utility model is a limiting bracket structure for receiving electrode plates, including a frame 1, a telescopic device 101 connected to the frame 1, the telescopic device 101 can be a cylinder, and the telescopic end of the telescopic device 101 is fixedly connected to a bracket 2, so that the bracket 2 is driven to rise and fall by the cylinder.

[0032] The bracket 2 includes a base plate 201, which has several rectangular slots to facilitate compatibility with multi-row synchronous belt conveyors. Two rows of limiting posts 202 and one row of side stops 203 are welded or threaded onto the base plate 201. The two rows of limiting posts 202 are used to limit the position of the electrode plate in the length direction; the row of side stops 203 is perpendicular to the arrangement direction of the two rows of limiting posts 202 and is used to limit the position of the electrode plate in the width direction.

[0033] Among them, such as Figure 5 and 7 As shown, in the two rows of limiting posts 202, one row of limiting posts 202 is arranged with a clearance for the tabs 501, and the other row is provided with limiting posts 202 corresponding to this position. When the electrode plates 5 are stacked, if the tabs 501 are facing the wrong direction, they will be blocked by the limiting posts 202 at this position and cannot be placed. This achieves the limitation of the orientation of the tabs 501 when the electrode plates are placed, thereby avoiding the situation where the electrode plates 5 are placed in the wrong orientation due to human negligence.

[0034] The side support post 203 has a flat cut surface 204 facing downward from the top end. The flat cut surface 204 faces the side close to the electrode plate 5 and is used to refer to the stacking height of the electrode plate 5 through the lower end of the flat cut surface 204 to determine the number of electrode plates 5 stacked.

[0035] Specifically, since the thickness of the electrode plate 5 is fixed, the height of a fixed number of electrode plates 5 stacked together is also fixed. By detecting the height of a specified number of electrode plates 5 stacked together, the distance between the lower end of the flat surface 204 and the upper surface of the base plate 201 is adjusted to match the height of the specified number of electrode plates 5 stacked together. Thus, if the stacked electrode plates 5 are lower than the lower end of the flat surface 204, it indicates that there are too few plates; conversely, if they are higher than the lower end of the flat surface 204, it indicates that there are too many plates. This allows employees to more intuitively know whether the number of electrode plates 5 stacked is correct, ensuring the consistency of the stacked number and ensuring the convenience of subsequent production.

[0036] As a preferred option, such as Figure 2 and 3 As shown, the side support post 203 is movably inserted and connected to the base plate 201, which facilitates flexible adjustment of the vertical position of the side support post 203 according to the number of electrode plates 5 stacked. Among them, the lower surface of the base plate 201 is fixedly connected to a limiting guide sleeve 3 that is fitted one to one with the side support post 203. The side wall of the limiting guide sleeve 3 is threaded with a screw 301, which is used to fix the position of the side support post 203 by means of the screw 301.

[0037] Since different models of batteries have different thicknesses of plates 5, their stacked heights are also different. By adjusting the vertical position of the side support post 203, the distance between the lower end of the flat surface 204 and the upper surface of the base plate 201 can be adjusted. This allows for flexible adaptation to the stacked heights of plates 5 with different thicknesses, improving overall adaptability and practicality.

[0038] As another preferred implementation, such as Figure 3 and 4 As shown, two of the side stops 203 in a row of side stops 203 are movably inserted with guide rods 401. Taking the number of side stops 203 in the figure as an example, the two side stops 203 are inserted with guide rods 401. One end of the two guide rods 401 is fixedly connected to a push plate 4, and the other end is fixedly connected to a push rod 402.

[0039] Among them, such as Figure 3 and 6 As shown, the guide rod 401 is set perpendicular to the flat surface 204, the lower surface of the push plate 4 is flush with the lower end of the flat surface 204, and the thickness d of the push plate 4 is less than or equal to the opening depth h of the flat surface 204, so that the push plate 4 will not interfere with the stacking position of the electrode plate 5, ensuring that the electrode plate 5 can completely abut against the side baffle 203.

[0040] In the above embodiments, although it is possible to intuitively know whether there are too many or too few electrode plates 5, when the number of electrode plates 5 stacked is too large, the upper electrode plate 5 will be higher than the lower end of the flat surface 204. It is not convenient for humans to intuitively determine how many extra electrode plates 5 there are. They need to take them out one by one from top to bottom until the uppermost electrode plate 5 is flush with the lower end of the flat surface 204. This operation process still affects production efficiency.

[0041] like Figure 6 , 8 As shown in Figure 9, by setting the push plate 4, when the number of electrode plates 5 stacked is too large, the upper electrode plate 5 will be higher than the lower end of the flat surface 204. Then, the push rod 402 pushes the push plate 4, so that the electrode plate 5 that is higher than the lower end of the flat surface 204 is pushed outward of the bracket 2, thereby quickly screening out the excess electrode plate 5. During operation, the employee pushes the push rod 402 with his left hand and directly takes out the electrode plate 5 that has been pushed out of place with his right hand, thereby effectively improving the overall production efficiency.

[0042] To further optimize the implementation, a compression spring 403 is fitted onto the guide rod 401. One end of the compression spring 403 abuts against the push rod 402, and the other end abuts against the side stop post 203. The compression spring 403 pushes the push rod 402, causing the side of the push plate 4 to be in close contact with the flat cut surface 204. That is, after pushing the push rod 402, the compression spring 403 is compressed. When the push rod 402 is released, the push rod 402 is pushed to move in the opposite direction under the rebound action of the compression spring 403, thereby driving the push plate 4 to automatically reset. This reduces the process of manually pulling the push rod 402 to reset, thereby further improving the convenience of operation.
