[0015] In the following description, only certain exemplary embodiments are briefly described. As those skilled in the art will recognize, the described embodiments can be modified in various ways without departing from the spirit or scope of this application. Therefore, the drawings and description are considered to be exemplary in nature and not restrictive.

[0016] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown in the figure, this application discloses a battery string flipping device, including a lateral moving mechanism 1, a longitudinal moving mechanism 2, a flipping mechanism 3, and a flipping suction cup 4. The lateral moving mechanism 1 includes two lateral moving components 11, which are arranged opposite to each other. The longitudinal moving mechanism 2 includes two longitudinal moving components 21, which are respectively connected to the two lateral moving components 11, and the lateral moving components 11 drive the longitudinal moving components 21 to move in the lateral direction. The flipping mechanism 3 includes two flipping components 31, which are respectively connected to the two longitudinal moving components 21, and the longitudinal moving components 21 drive the flipping components 31 to move in the longitudinal direction. The flipping suction cup 4 is located between the two flipping components 31, and its two ends are respectively connected to the two flipping components 31. The flipping components 31 drive the flipping suction cup 4 to flip, and the flipping suction cup 4 has a vacuum suction cup 41.

[0017] In use, the battery string flipping device of this embodiment allows the battery string to be attracted by a vacuum suction cup 41. Then, the two flipping components 31 of the flipping mechanism 3 simultaneously drive the flipping suction cup 41 to flip, achieving a 180° flip of the battery string. Next, the horizontal moving mechanism 1 and the vertical moving mechanism 2 move the battery string to a predetermined position for placement. Alternatively, the horizontal moving mechanism 1 and the vertical moving mechanism 2 first move the flipping suction cup 4 above the battery string, then the vacuum suction cup 41 attracts the battery string, and finally, the flipping components 31 flip the battery string. The flipping device of this embodiment can automatically flip the battery string, achieving a high degree of automation and improving work efficiency.

[0018] In one embodiment, to enable the flipping suction cup 4 to move laterally, the lateral movement assembly 11 includes a lateral movement base 111, a lateral drive member 112, a lateral movement slide rail 113, and a lateral movement plate 114. The lateral drive member 112 and the lateral movement slide rail 113 are both fixed to the lateral movement base 111, and the lateral drive member 112 is connected to the lateral movement plate 114. The lateral movement plate 114 is slidably connected to the lateral movement slide rail 113, and the longitudinal movement assembly 21 is connected to the lateral movement plate 114. After the lateral drive member 112 is activated, it can drive the lateral movement plate 114 to move along the lateral movement slide rail 113, thereby realizing the lateral movement of the longitudinal movement assembly 21, the flipping assembly 31, and the flipping suction cup 4.

[0019] Specifically, there may be two transverse sliding rails 113, with the transverse drive member 112 located between the two transverse sliding rails 113. The transverse sliding rails 113 are fixed to the transverse sliding base 111 by bolts. The transverse sliding plate 114 is slidably connected to the transverse sliding rails 113 by a slider. In this embodiment, the transverse drive member 112 may be a cylinder, and the transverse sliding plate 114 is connected to the drive shaft of the cylinder. To fix the transverse drive member 112 on the transverse sliding base 111, multiple cylinder mounting bases 115 may be fixed to the transverse sliding base 111 by bolts, and the transverse drive member 112 may be fixed to the cylinder mounting bases 115 by bolts, etc.

[0020] To enable the flipping suction cup 4 to move longitudinally, the longitudinal movement assembly 21 includes a longitudinal drive component 211 and a longitudinal moving plate 212. The longitudinal drive component 211 is fixed to the transverse moving plate 114 by screws, and the longitudinal moving plate 212 is connected to the longitudinal drive component 211. The flipping assembly 31 is connected to the longitudinal moving plate 212. Preferably, the longitudinal drive component 211 is also a cylinder, which can be a slide cylinder. The cylinder drives the longitudinal moving plate 212 to move longitudinally.

[0021] Furthermore, the longitudinal moving assembly 21 also includes a longitudinal fixing plate 213, which is bolted to the longitudinal moving plate 212. The flipping assembly 31 is also bolted to the longitudinal fixing plate 213. Preferably, the flipping assembly 31 is a rotary cylinder. The drive shaft of the rotary cylinder passes through the longitudinal fixing plate 213 and is connected to the flipping suction cup 4.

[0022] In one embodiment, the flipping suction cup 4 includes a flipping rotation shaft 42 and multiple suction cup fixing plates 43. The two ends of the flipping rotation shaft 42 are respectively connected to two flipping components 31. The multiple suction cup fixing plates 43 are respectively fixed to the flipping rotation shaft 42, and are spaced apart along the length of the flipping rotation shaft 42. Specifically, the suction cup fixing plates 43 can be fixed to the flipping rotation shaft 42 with bolts. Multiple vacuum suction cups 41 are provided, each fixed to one of the multiple suction cup fixing plates 43, and can be fixed to the suction cup fixing plates 43 with bolts. Each suction cup fixing plate 43 can fix four vacuum suction cups 41, which achieve battery string adsorption through vacuum adsorption.

[0023] To connect the rotating shaft 42 to the rotating assembly 31, the rotating suction cup 4 further includes two fixing components 44. The two fixing components 44 are respectively connected to both ends of the rotating shaft 42, and the two fixing components 44 are respectively connected to two longitudinal fixing plates 213. The rotating shaft 42 is connected to the longitudinal fixing plates 213 through the fixing components 44.

[0024] Specifically, the fixing component 44 includes a fixing base 441 and a fixing block 442. The fixing base 441 is connected to the longitudinal fixing plate 213 by bolts or welding. The fixing block 442 is connected to the fixing base 441 by bolts. The flipping rotating shaft 42 is connected to the fixing base 441 by bolts, and the flipping rotating shaft 42 can also be connected to the fixing block 442 by bolts.

[0025] In one embodiment, a pressure block 45 can also be bolted to the suction cup fixing plate 43. The pressure block 45 can be fixed to the middle of the suction cup fixing plate 43, and the vacuum suction cup 41 is located on both sides of the pressure block 45. Since the battery string has a wavy structure, the connection of the busbars on the battery string may be uneven. With the pressure block 45, the connection of the busbars can be flattened by pressing with the pressure block 45.
