Then, the battery cell is transported to the next station. Although this method can flip the battery cell 180 degrees, the working cycle is too long, which affects the production efficiency of the battery cells. Summary of the Invention

Detailed Implementation

[0013] The preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings, further illustrating the present invention.

[0014] First, combine Figure 1 This invention describes a battery cell flipping and conveying device according to an embodiment of the present invention, used to flip battery cells 180 degrees during the conveying process.

[0015] like Figure 1 As shown, a battery cell flipping and conveying device according to an embodiment of the present invention includes: a first positioning component, a second positioning component, a conveying component, and a rotating component; The first positioning component and the second positioning component are respectively located at the beginning and end of the conveying component; The conveying assembly includes: a lifting mechanism and a traversing mechanism; The output end of the lateral movement mechanism is connected to the lifting mechanism to drive the lifting mechanism to move laterally, and the output end of the lifting mechanism is connected to the rotating component to drive the rotating component to move vertically. The rotating assembly includes: a rotating motor 6, a rotating shaft 7, a moving plate 8, and an adsorption mechanism; One end of the movable plate 8 is connected to the lifting mechanism, and the other end is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft 7. One end of the rotating shaft 7 is connected to the output end of the rotating motor 6, and the other end is connected to the adsorption mechanism, which is used to adsorb the battery cell.

[0016] After the battery cell is placed on the first positioning component, the lifting mechanism drives the rotating component to descend, so that the adsorption mechanism adsorbs and fixes the battery cell. After the lifting mechanism raises the battery cell to a safe height, the lateral movement mechanism moves the lifting mechanism to the second positioning component. During this process, the rotary motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, flipping the adsorption mechanism 180 degrees, thereby flipping the battery cell 180 degrees. The lifting mechanism then drives the rotating component to descend again, placing the flipped battery cell on the second positioning component. This achieves a 180-degree flip of the battery cell during the battery cell transportation process, greatly improving the working cycle and increasing the production efficiency of the battery cell.

[0017] The first positioning component and the second positioning component each include: a base plate 1, a first support column 2, a second support column 3, a first positioning plate 4, and a second positioning plate 5; The first support column 2 and the second support column 3 are respectively located at both ends of the base plate 1. The first positioning plate 4 is located at the top of the first support column 2, and the second positioning plate 5 is located at the top of the second support column 3. The first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 5 are used to position the battery cell.

[0018] In this embodiment, there is a certain gap between the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 5. The gap between the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 5 is greater than the width of the adsorption mechanism, and less than the width of the battery cell. During the process of the lifting mechanism driving the rotating assembly to descend, the adsorption mechanism passes between the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 5, placing the battery cell on the first positioning plate 4 and the second positioning plate 5.

[0019] The first positioning component and the second positioning component further include: a first clamping cylinder, a first clamping plate, a second clamping cylinder and a second clamping plate; The first clamping cylinder is fixed on the first positioning plate 4, and the output end of the first clamping cylinder is connected to the first clamping plate. The second clamping cylinder is fixed on the second positioning plate 5, and the output end of the second clamping cylinder is connected to the second clamping plate.

[0020] The first clamping cylinder and the second clamping cylinder respectively drive the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate to move closer to each other, so that the first clamping plate and the second clamping plate fix the battery cell.

[0021] The adsorption mechanism includes: an adsorption plate 9 and a vacuum suction cup 10; The adsorption plate 9 is fixed to one end of the rotating shaft 7, and the vacuum suction cup 10 is fixed on the adsorption plate 9. The vacuum suction cup 10 is used to adsorb and fix the battery cell.

[0022] In this embodiment, a plurality of parallel adsorption plates 9 are fixed on the rotating shaft 7, and vacuum suction cups 10 are fixed at both ends of two adjacent adsorption plates 9, so that the vacuum suction cups 10 fix the battery cell.

[0023] The lateral movement mechanism includes: a lateral movement frame 11, a lateral movement slide rail 12, a lateral movement slide plate 13, and a lateral movement motor 14; The transverse slide rail 12 is fixed on the transverse frame 11, the transverse slide plate 13 is slidably mounted on the transverse slide rail 12, the transverse motor 14 is fixed at one end of the transverse slide rail 12 and is used to drive the transverse slide plate 13 to move on the transverse slide rail 12, and the lifting mechanism is fixed on the transverse slide plate 13.

[0024] The lifting mechanism includes: a lifting slide rail 15, a lifting motor 16, a lifting lead screw 17, and a lifting slider 18; The lifting slide rail 15 is fixed on the transverse sliding plate 13, the lifting slider 18 is slidably disposed on the lifting slide rail 15, the lifting motor 16 is fixed at one end of the lifting slide rail 15, the output end of the lifting motor 16 is connected to the lifting screw 17, the moving plate 8 is connected to the lifting screw 17, and the lifting motor 16 is used to drive the moving plate 8 to move on the lifting screw 17.

[0025] The lifting motor 16 drives the lifting screw 17 to rotate, causing the lifting slider 18 to move on the lifting slide rail 15, thus driving the battery cell to rise and fall. When the adsorption mechanism approaches the first positioning component or the second positioning component, the lifting motor 16 drives the lifting slider 18 to move slowly on the lifting slide rail 15. The lateral motor 14 drives the lateral sliding plate 13 to move on the lateral slide rail 12, causing the battery cell to move laterally.

[0026] Above, refer to Figure 1 This invention describes a battery cell flipping and conveying device according to an embodiment of the present invention. After the battery cell is placed on the first positioning component, the lifting mechanism drives the rotating component to descend, so that the adsorption mechanism adsorbs and fixes the battery cell. After the lifting mechanism raises the battery cell to a safe height, the lateral movement mechanism moves the lifting mechanism to the second positioning component. During this process, the rotating motor 6 drives the rotating shaft 7 to rotate, flipping the adsorption mechanism by 180 degrees, thereby flipping the battery cell by 180 degrees. The lifting mechanism then drives the rotating component to descend again, placing the flipped battery cell on the second positioning component, thus achieving a 180-degree flipping of the battery cell during the battery cell conveying process.
