Description

Technical Field

[0001] This application relates to the field of sheet-splitting equipment technology, specifically to a sheet-splitting device for a battery aluminum shell double sheet machine. Background Technology

[0002] In the production of aluminum battery casings, the raw materials are usually stacked aluminum sheets. During handling, storage, or processing, the aluminum sheets may stick together due to factors such as static electricity, surface smoothness, and environmental humidity, forming double or multiple sheets. If they are not separated, subsequent stamping, cutting, and other processing steps will lead to problems such as reduced processing accuracy, mold damage, and substandard product quality.

[0003] Currently, most sheet separation devices are magnetic sheet separation devices. These devices rely on the force of magnetic fields to separate the sheets. However, aluminum sheets are non-ferromagnetic materials, and the magnetic force has a weak effect on them, making it difficult to achieve stable and efficient sheet separation operations. In battery aluminum shell production workshops, workers use manual sheet separation, manually placing the stacked aluminum sheets one by one onto the conveyor belt. This process is not only labor-intensive but also detrimental to improving production efficiency.

[0004] Therefore, it is necessary to provide a battery aluminum shell double sheet separation device to solve the above problems.

[0005] It should be noted that the information disclosed in this background section is only for understanding the background technology of this application concept, and therefore may include information that does not constitute prior art. Summary of the Invention

[0031] It should be noted that, unless otherwise specified, the embodiments and features described in this application can be combined with each other. This application will now be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and embodiments.

[0032] To enable those skilled in the art to better understand the present application, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present application, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort should fall within the scope of protection of the present application.

[0033] like Figure 1-2As shown, this application provides a battery aluminum shell dual-sheet sheet separating device, including a support frame 1. The support frame 1 serves as the basic framework of the entire device and is welded from high-strength steel. Its stable structure can withstand the gravity and mechanical forces generated during the placement of the aluminum sheets and the operation of each component. A separating assembly 2 is installed at the front end of the support frame 1. The separating assembly 2 includes mounting brackets 21 that are bolted to both sides of the front end of the support frame 1. The bolted connection facilitates the disassembly and maintenance of the mounting brackets 21. The mounting brackets 21 are made of robust steel structure with sufficient strength and rigidity to support the stable operation of each component of the separating assembly 2. Figure 5-6 As shown, each of the two mounting brackets 21 has a connecting plate 22 bolted to one side of its opposite side. The connecting plate 22 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy, which reduces the overall weight while ensuring strength. A first drive motor 23, which is the power source for the opening and closing action, is fixedly mounted on one end of the connecting plate 22. This motor is a servo motor. The output end of the first drive motor 23 passes through the connecting plate 22 and is fixed to a first connecting rod 24 via a coupling.

[0034] The middle part of the connecting plate 22 is rotatably connected to the second connecting rod 25 via a bearing. The bearing is a high-precision deep groove ball bearing, which can effectively reduce friction during rotation and improve the rotational flexibility of the second connecting rod 25. The upper ends of the first connecting rod 24 and the second connecting rod 25 are rotatably connected to an L-shaped mounting plate 26 via a rotating shaft (not marked in the figure). The L-shaped mounting plate 26 is made of high-strength aluminum alloy.

[0035] Multiple vacuum suction cups 27 are bolted to one end of the L-shaped mounting plate 26. These vacuum suction cups 27 are evenly distributed to ensure uniform adsorption force on the aluminum plate and prevent deformation or slippage of the aluminum plate during adsorption. The lower end of the vacuum suction cup 27 is made of silicone, which has good sealing and wear resistance and can fit tightly to the surface of the aluminum plate. Each vacuum suction cup 27 is connected to a vacuum generator (not shown in the figure) through an independent air pipe. The on and off of the air pipe is controlled by a solenoid valve to achieve independent control of the adsorption and release of a single vacuum suction cup 27. When the first drive motor 23 rotates and drives the first connecting rod 24 to rotate, the first connecting rod 24 and the second connecting rod 25 are rotatably connected to the L-shaped mounting plate 26. Under the action of the four-bar linkage, the first connecting rod 24 and the second connecting rod 25 swing synchronously, so that the L-shaped mounting plate 26 can swing in an arc. When the L-shaped mounting plate 26 swings to the rear end, the vacuum generator is activated, and the vacuum suction cup 27 picks up the aluminum plate. Then, the first motor drives the first connecting rod 24 and the second connecting rod 25 to swing forward, moving the uppermost aluminum plate picked up by the vacuum suction cup 27 forward, thus realizing the sheet separation operation of the aluminum plate.

[0036] like Figure 2As shown, a placement plate 41 is provided at the upper end of the support frame 1, which is a key component for supporting the aluminum plate. The surface of the placement plate 41 is specially treated to form an anti-slip texture to increase the friction between it and the aluminum plate and prevent the aluminum plate from sliding during placement and adjustment. At the same time, the size of the placement plate 41 is designed according to common aluminum plate specifications to accommodate the placement needs of aluminum plates of different sizes.

[0037] An adjustment assembly 4 is installed on the support frame 1. The adjustment assembly 4 includes a hydraulic cylinder 42 fixedly installed at the lower end of the support frame 1. The hydraulic cylinder 42 is a servo hydraulic cylinder, which features fast response speed and high control precision. The output end of the hydraulic cylinder 42 is fixedly connected to the placement plate 41 by bolts to ensure reliable connection. Guide rods 43 are fixedly installed at the four corners at the lower end of the placement plate 41. The guide rods 43 are slidably connected to the guide grooves (not marked in the figure) opened on the support frame 1. This ensures that the placement plate 41 remains stable during up and down movement, avoiding tilting or shaking, thus providing a stable foundation for the sheet separation of aluminum plates.

[0038] When the height of the placement plate 41 needs to be adjusted, a command is sent to the hydraulic cylinder 42 via the controller (not shown in the figure). The piston of the hydraulic cylinder 42 extends and retracts according to the command, causing the placement plate 41 to move up and down along the guide rod 43. The height adjustment function can be flexibly adjusted according to the stacking height of the aluminum plates and the needs of subsequent sheet separation operations, ensuring that the vacuum suction cup 27 can accurately pick up the top aluminum plate.

[0039] like Figure 4 As shown, a conveying assembly 3 is installed at the front end of the support frame 1. This assembly is primarily responsible for conveying the slit aluminum sheets and guiding them onto an external conveyor belt (not shown) for subsequent battery casing processing. The conveying assembly 3 includes a positioning frame 31 fixedly installed at the front end of the support frame 1. A second drive motor 32 is fixedly installed on one side of the lower end of the positioning frame 31. A conveying roller 33 is rotatably mounted on the lower end of the positioning frame 31. The output end of the second drive motor 32 is fixedly installed to the conveying roller 33 via a reducer, providing power to the conveying roller 33. This motor is a variable frequency motor, and the speed of the conveying roller 33 can be flexibly adjusted according to production needs via the frequency converter to achieve conveying of the aluminum sheets at different speeds.

[0040] The conveyor roller 33 is a metal roller covered with rubber. The rubber surface has a certain roughness, which can increase the friction between it and the aluminum plate and ensure that the aluminum plate will not slip during the conveying process.

[0041] like Figure 4As shown, a laser displacement sensor 34 is fixedly installed on the upper end of the positioning frame 31, which is a key component for detecting the thickness of the aluminum plate. This sensor uses laser ranging technology. When a single aluminum plate passes through the detection area, the laser beam emitted by the laser displacement sensor 34 illuminates the surface of the aluminum plate. The reflected light is received by the sensor, and the thickness of the aluminum plate can be measured by calculating the flight time of the laser beam. If two aluminum plates are present, the total thickness of the aluminum plate will increase, and the distance data measured by the sensor will change. By setting an appropriate thickness threshold on the controller, when the detected thickness value exceeds the threshold, the controller will determine that two aluminum plates are present and trigger an early warning mechanism. Simultaneously, it will control the conveying assembly 3 to stop operating to prevent two aluminum plates from entering subsequent processing steps and ensure product quality.

[0042] like Figure 1 As shown, baffles 5 are fixedly installed on both sides of the support frame 1. The baffles 5 are made of high-strength plastic material and can be used to prevent the aluminum plate from slipping during the splitting and conveying process. The surface of the baffles 5 has been smoothed to reduce friction with the aluminum plate and prevent the surface of the aluminum plate from being scratched.

[0043] Working principle: When in use, aluminum plates are stacked on the placement plate 41 at the upper end of the support frame 1. When the stacking height of the aluminum plates changes, the controller sends a command to the hydraulic cylinder 42. The piston of the hydraulic cylinder 42 extends and retracts, driving the placement plate 41 to move up and down along the guide rod 43. The sliding connection between the guide rod 43 and the guide groove ensures that the placement plate 41 rises and falls smoothly, so that the vacuum suction cup 27 can be accurately aligned with the uppermost aluminum plate.

[0044] The first drive motor 23 starts and drives the first connecting rod 24 to rotate through the coupling. The first connecting rod 24 and the second connecting rod 25 form a four-bar linkage, driving the L-shaped mounting plate to swing in an arc. When the L-shaped mounting plate swings to the rear end (near the aluminum plate stack), it stops moving. The vacuum generator starts and supplies air to each vacuum suction cup 27 through an independent air pipe. The silicone suction cups are tightly attached to the surface of the aluminum plate, generating a uniform adsorption force to prevent the aluminum plate from deforming or slipping.

[0045] The first drive motor 23 rotates in the opposite direction, driving the first link 24 and the second link 25 to swing forward. The L-shaped mounting plate moves forward synchronously, separating the adsorbed uppermost aluminum plate from the stacked layer. The synchronous swing of the four-bar mechanism ensures that the aluminum plate remains stable during the movement and avoids tilting.

[0046] When the aluminum plate is split and moved above the conveying assembly 3, the second drive motor 32 drives the conveying roller 33 to rotate through the reducer. The rubber-coated conveying roller 33 drives the aluminum plate forward by friction. The speed can be adjusted by the frequency converter according to production needs. When the aluminum plate passes the laser displacement sensor 34 at the upper end of the positioning frame 31, the sensor emits a laser beam and calculates the thickness of the aluminum plate based on the flight time of the reflected light. If the thickness is detected to exceed the preset threshold of the controller (i.e., double material situation), the controller triggers an alarm and stops the operation of the conveying assembly 3 to prevent double material from entering the subsequent process.

[0047] During the sheet splitting and conveying process, the high-strength plastic baffles 5 on both sides of the support frame 1 prevent the aluminum sheet from slipping, and their smooth surface avoids scratching the surface of the aluminum sheet.

[0048] After a single aluminum sheet is conveyed, the L-shaped mounting plate is swung back to the rear end, and the placement plate 41 is automatically adjusted according to the height of the remaining aluminum sheet under the action of the hydraulic cylinder 42, and enters the next sheet-separation cycle.

[0049] The above description is merely a preferred embodiment of this application and is not intended to limit this application. Various modifications and variations can be made to this application by those skilled in the art. Any modifications, equivalent substitutions, improvements, etc., made within the spirit and principles of this application should be included within the protection scope of this application.
