Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of flexible flat cabling processing equipment, and in particular to a cabling flipping and conversion edge system. Background Technology

[0002] In new energy equipment, especially in new energy storage devices, flexible flat cables are widely used. These cables can be bent arbitrarily, facilitating their placement within the energy storage device. Furthermore, their flat shape minimizes space usage, improving space utilization and integration within the energy storage device. Within these devices, the flexible flat cables typically connect the battery cells and interfaces at their respective ends.

[0003] In the processing equipment for flexible flat ribbon cables, the material is in roll form. It is fed in a strip along a first direction and then cut into flexible flat ribbon cables of appropriate length. Subsequent processing involves multiple processing devices that process both ends of the flexible flat ribbon cable. When processing one end of the flexible flat ribbon cable, it is conveyed by a conveyor system, with multiple processing devices positioned on one side of the conveyor system. When processing the other end of the flexible flat ribbon cable, it is conveyed by another conveyor system, with multiple processing devices positioned on one side of this conveyor system. Patent CN118723508A discloses a ribbon cable edge-changing system. In this equipment, after edge changing, the same surface is processed, and it is not possible to flip the ribbon cable for edge changing. Utility Model Content

[0045] like Figure 1-4 The illustrated cable flipping and conversion system is used to transfer flexible flat cables between a first conveyor system and a second conveyor system. Specifically, it picks up the flexible flat cable from a fixture at the unloading position of the first conveyor system and transfers it to a fixture at the loading position of the second conveyor system. The two fixtures 5 respectively clamp both ends of the flexible flat cable. The cable flipping and conversion system includes a transfer device 1, a transit device 2, and a clamping device 3.

[0046] The transfer device 1 transfers the flexible flat cable to the transfer device 2. The transfer device 1 includes a first gripper mechanism 12 for gripping the flexible flat cable from the fixture 5 of the first conveying system.

[0047] The transfer device 2 includes an X-axis transfer platform 21 and a rotating gripper mechanism 22. The X-axis transfer platform 21 is located between the transfer device 1 and the clamping device 3 to drive the rotating gripper mechanism 22 to move along the X-axis direction. The rotating gripper mechanism 22 is located on the X-axis transfer platform 21 and on the moving trajectory of the flexible flat cable to clamp the middle part of the flexible flat cable and rotate and flip it.

[0048] like Figure 2 As shown, the clamping device 3 includes a second gripper mechanism 32 for clamping the second end of the flexible flat cable transmitted by the rotating gripper mechanism 22.

[0049] In this embodiment, the X-axis transfer platform 21 drives the rotary gripper mechanism 22 to move along the X-axis to the transfer device 1 until the first gripper mechanism 12 and the rotary gripper mechanism 22 intersect. The first gripper mechanism 12 feeds the flexible flat cable into the gripper of the rotary gripper mechanism 22. The rotary gripper mechanism 22 holds the middle part of the flexible flat cable, and the first gripper mechanism 12 releases the flexible flat cable. The X-axis transfer platform 21 drives the flexible flat cable to move along the X-axis to the clamping device 3 until the rotary gripper mechanism 22 intersects with the second gripper mechanism 32. The rotary gripper mechanism 22 feeds the flexible flat cable into the gripper of the second gripper mechanism 32. The second gripper mechanism 32 holds the second end of the flexible flat cable, and the rotary gripper mechanism 22 releases the flexible flat cable. Therefore, in this embodiment, the clamping position is changed step by step by the transfer device 1, the transfer device 2 and the clamping device 3, changing from clamping the first end of the flexible flat cable in the first transmission system to clamping the second end of the flexible flat cable in the second transmission system, and causing the surface of the flexible flat cable to flip up and down, thereby reducing the difficulty of changing the edge of the flexible flat cable and improving the edge changing efficiency of the flexible flat cable.

[0050] In some embodiments of the transfer device 2, such as Figure 6 As shown, the transfer device 2 also includes a Y-axis adjustment mechanism 23, which is mounted on the X-axis transfer platform 21, and a rotating gripper mechanism 22 is mounted on the Y-axis adjustment mechanism 23. The Y-axis adjustment mechanism 23 adjusts the position of the rotating gripper mechanism 22 on the Y-axis, facilitating the alignment and avoidance of the rotating gripper mechanism 22 with the first gripper mechanism 12 and the second gripper mechanism 32, thereby improving the assembly accuracy.

[0051] The Y-axis adjustment mechanism 23 can be a push rod, cylinder, linear motion platform, or motor screw mechanism, etc.

[0052] The rotary gripper mechanism 22 includes a swing mechanism and a third gripper mechanism. Specifically, the third gripper mechanism can be a finger-gripping cylinder. The third gripper mechanism is mounted on the swing mechanism, which is mounted on the X-axis transfer platform. The swing mechanism drives the third gripper mechanism to rotate or swing around the Y-axis.

[0053] Of course, the rotary gripper mechanism 22 can also be a swing gripper, on which the gripper can perform a gripping action and can rotate or swing around the Y-axis.

[0054] Specifically, for the first gripper mechanism 12 to grip the flexible flat cable, the first conveyor system can drive the fixture 5 to move toward the first gripper mechanism 12 and feed it into the gripper.

[0055] In some embodiments, the transfer device 1 further includes an X-axis moving platform 11, which drives the first gripper mechanism 12 to move along the X-axis direction. The first gripper mechanism 12 is mounted on the X-axis moving platform 11. In this embodiment, the X-axis moving platform 11 drives the first gripper mechanism 12 to move along the X-axis direction, specifically moving the first gripper mechanism 12 towards the unloading position of the first conveying system. The first conveying system uses a fixture 5 to clamp the first end of the flexible flat cable. The flexible flat cable is clamped on the fixture 5 of the first conveying system along the Y-axis direction. Driven by the X-axis moving platform 11, the first gripper 122 on the first gripper mechanism 12 clamps the first end of the flexible flat cable from the fixture. Then, the X-axis moving platform 11 drives the first gripper mechanism 12 to move towards the transfer device 2 until the first gripper mechanism 12 feeds the flexible flat cable into the gripper of the rotating gripper mechanism 22.

[0056] In some embodiments of the clamping device 3, the clamping device 3 further includes a Y-axis moving platform 31. The Y-axis moving platform 31 drives the second gripper mechanism 32 to move along the Y-axis direction and pass through the movement trajectory of the flexible flat cable and the loading position of the second conveying system. The second gripper mechanism 32 is disposed on the Y-axis moving platform 31 for clamping the second end of the flexible flat cable conveyed by the rotating gripper mechanism 22. The Y-axis moving platform 31 drives the flexible flat cable to move along the Y-axis to the fixture on the second conveying system until the second gripper mechanism 32 feeds the flexible flat cable into the second conveying system.

[0057] In addition, the Y-axis moving platform 31 has the function of avoiding jigs.

[0058] In one embodiment of the cabling flip-over conversion system, such as Figures 2 to 4 As shown, the flexible flat cable conversion system also includes two rotating devices 4, which are respectively located at the loading and unloading positions, and are used to rotate the pressure block 52 on the corresponding fixture 5. The first and second conveying systems use the fixture 5 to clamp the flexible flat cable. The fixture 5 is equipped with a pressure block 52 that can be rotated arbitrarily to press the flexible flat cable. Both loading and unloading of the flexible flat cable require the rotating devices 4 to rotate the pressure block 52.

[0059] During the feeding of the flexible flat cable, the X-axis moving platform 11 drives the first gripper mechanism 12 to move along the X-axis to the feeding position, where the first gripper mechanism 12 clamps the flexible flat cable. Then, at the corresponding position, the rotating device 4 rotates the pressure block 52, causing the fixture 5 to release the flexible flat cable. Afterwards, the X-axis moving platform 11 drives the first gripper mechanism 12 to move away along the X-axis. During the feeding of the flexible flat cable, the Y-axis moving platform 31 drives the second gripper mechanism 32 to move along the Y-axis, causing the flexible flat cable to move to the loading position, specifically to the fixture 5 at the corresponding position. At the corresponding position, the rotating device 4 rotates the pressure block 52, causing the pressure block 52 to press the flexible flat cable. The second gripper mechanism 32 releases the flexible flat cable, and then the Y-axis moving platform 31 drives the second gripper mechanism 32 to move away along the Y-axis.

[0060] Furthermore, such as Figure 7 As shown, the rotating device 4 includes a Z-axis lifting mechanism 41 and a rotating mechanism 42. The Z-axis lifting mechanism 41 is located at the corresponding loading or unloading position, and the rotating mechanism 42 is located on the Z-axis lifting mechanism 41 and above the corresponding pressure block 52, used to rotate the pressure block 52 on the fixture 5 at the corresponding position. The Z-axis lifting mechanism 41 drives the rotating mechanism 42 to perform lifting and lowering movements, and the rotating mechanism 42 cooperates with the pressure block 52 on the fixture 5 to drive the pressure block 52 to rotate.

[0061] Specifically, such as Figure 7 As shown, the rotating mechanism 42 includes an upper mounting block 421, a lower mounting block 422, a rotating rod 423, an open claw 424, and a rotating drive mechanism 425.

[0062] Upper mounting block 421 and lower mounting block 422 are mounted on Z-axis lifting mechanism 41. Specifically, upper mounting block 421 and lower mounting block 422 are mounted on Z-axis lifting block 412, and are arranged side by side. Rotating rod 423 is rotatably mounted on upper mounting block 421 and lower mounting block 422. Specifically, rotating rod 423 is rotatably connected to upper mounting block 421 and lower mounting block 422 via bearings. Opening claw 424 is located at the lower end of rotating rod 423, and the lower part of opening claw 424 has an opening adapted to fit the pressure block 52 of fixture 5. Rotary drive mechanism 425 is connected to rotating rod 423 to drive rotating rod 423. Rotary drive mechanism 425 can be a motor or a cylinder capable of outputting rotary motion.

[0063] In this embodiment, the upper mounting block 421 and the lower mounting block 422 are arranged side by side on the Z-axis lifting mechanism 41, and the rotating rod 423 is rotatably mounted on the upper mounting block 421 and the lower mounting block 422. The rotation drive mechanism 425 drives the opening claw 424 to rotate through the rotating rod 423, so that when the opening claw 424 is adapted to the pressure block 52, it can drive the pressure block 52 to rotate.

[0064] In addition, such as Figure 7 As shown, the Z-axis lifting mechanism 41 includes a Z-axis platform plate 411, a Z-axis lifting block 412, a Z-axis lifting sliding assembly 413, and a lifting drive mechanism 414.

[0065] The Z-axis lifting block 412 is mounted on the Z-axis platform plate 411 via the Z-axis lifting sliding assembly 413. A lifting drive mechanism 414 is mounted on the Z-axis platform plate 411 and is connected to the Z-axis lifting block 412 to drive it in lifting motion. Specifically, the lifting drive mechanism 414 can be a push rod, cylinder, or motor screw mechanism, etc. A rotation mechanism 42 is mounted on the Z-axis lifting block 412. The Z-axis lifting sliding assembly 413 specifically includes a guide rail and a slider. The sliding contact direction of the guide rail and slider is the Z-axis direction. The guide rail in the Z-axis lifting sliding assembly 413 is mounted on the Z-axis platform plate 411, and the slider is mounted on the corresponding guide rail. The Z-axis lifting block 412 is mounted on the slider in the Z-axis lifting sliding assembly 413. The Z-axis lifting block 412 is slidably mounted on the Z-axis platform plate 411 using the Z-axis lifting sliding assembly 413. The Z-axis lifting block 412 is driven to move up and down by the lifting drive mechanism 414, thereby driving the rotation mechanism 42 to move up and down.

[0066] In some embodiments of the transfer device 1, such as Figure 5 As shown, the transfer device 1 also includes a Z-axis adjustment mechanism 13, which is mounted on the X-axis moving platform 11. The Z-axis adjustment mechanism 13 drives the first gripper mechanism 12 to move along the Z-axis. Specifically, the Z-axis adjustment mechanism 13 can be a push rod, a cylinder, a motor screw mechanism, or other mechanisms capable of outputting linear motion.

[0067] For the first gripper mechanism 12, when it faces the transfer device 2, after the first gripper mechanism 12 grips the flexible flat cable and moves along the X-axis of the transfer device 2, the first gripper mechanism 12 needs to avoid the fixture. The Z-axis adjustment mechanism 13 can raise the position of the first gripper mechanism 12 to avoid the fixture at the unloading position of the first conveyor system. When it faces away from the transfer device 2, after the first gripper mechanism 12 grips the flexible flat cable and moves along the X-axis of the transfer device 2, and after the rotating gripper mechanism 22 clamps the flexible flat cable, the first gripper mechanism 12 needs to avoid the rotating gripper mechanism 22. The Z-axis adjustment mechanism 13 can raise the position of the first gripper mechanism 12 to avoid the rotating gripper mechanism 22.

[0068] In this embodiment of the invention, the transfer device 1 includes an X-axis moving platform 11, a Z-axis adjusting mechanism 13, and a first gripper mechanism 12. The Z-axis adjusting mechanism 13 outputs movement along the Z-axis direction, such as lifting and avoiding movement, while the X-axis moving platform 11 outputs movement along the X-axis direction. Driven by the X-axis moving platform 11 and the Z-axis adjusting mechanism 13, the first gripper mechanism 12 moves along the X-axis and Z-axis directions. The first gripper mechanism 12 can use the first gripper 122 and the second gripper 123 to clamp or grasp the cut flexible flat cable, while using the support member 124 to support the flexible flat cable at another position. This increases the overall support effect of the flexible flat cable, prevents the flexible flat cable from bending and sagging excessively, and especially keeps the flexible flat cable relatively straight between the first gripper 122 and the support end, improving the convenience of the conveying system in receiving the flexible flat cable.

[0069] Furthermore, the supporting end and the first gripper 122 are spaced apart, and there is a clearance area between the supporting end and the first gripper 122. The supporting member 124 and the first gripper 122 are connected to form a U-shaped structure or a near-U-shaped structure. When the rotating gripper mechanism 22 clamps the flexible flat cable on the first gripper mechanism 12, the rotating gripper mechanism 22 is located in the clearance area, that is, the clamping position of the rotating gripper mechanism 22 is located in the clearance area. The fixing device for the flexible flat cable during cutting can be fixed by the jig 5 or clamped by the gripper. The supporting end and the first gripper 122 are spaced apart, and a clearance area is provided between the supporting end and the first gripper 122. When actually transferring the flexible flat cable, driven by the X-axis moving platform 11 and the Z-axis adjusting mechanism 13, the supporting end and the first gripper 122 move to both sides of the fixing device during cutting, forming a clearance from the fixing device during cutting. When transferred to the conveying system, driven by the X-axis moving platform 11 and the Z-axis adjusting mechanism 13, the supporting end and the first gripper 122 move to both sides of the fixture on the first conveying system, thus avoiding the fixture.

[0070] Regarding the orientation of each gripper mechanism, the orientation of the first gripper mechanism 12 is opposite to that of the rotary gripper mechanism 22. The rotary gripper mechanism 22 faces the clamping device 3. The second gripper mechanism 32 faces the transfer device 2, and the rotary gripper mechanism 22 and the second gripper mechanism 32 are arranged opposite to each other.

[0071] Of course, the cabling flipping and conversion system also includes multiple brackets. Each of the transfer device 1, transfer device 2, clamping device 3, and rotating device 4 can have its own bracket. Alternatively, any two or more can share a single bracket.

[0072] Both the first and second conveying systems include multiple fixtures, each comprising a support plate 51 and a pressure block 52. The support plate 51 supports or places the flexible flat cable, and the pressure block 52 is mounted on the support plate 51 to press the flexible flat cable. More specifically, the pressure block 52 is rotatably connected to the support plate 51 via a rotating shaft. Specifically, the rotating shaft is fixed to the support plate 51, and the pressure block 52 is rotatably connected to the rotating shaft. A spring is provided at the upper end of the rotating shaft, and the lower end of the spring abuts against the pressure block 52. The spring applies a spring force to the pressure block 52, improving the pressing effect of the pressure block 52 on the flexible flat cable.

[0073] Furthermore, to prevent the spring from protruding, the top of the pressure block 52 can also be provided with a receiving groove. The upper end of the rotating shaft passes through the pressure block 52 and extends into the receiving groove, with the spring sleeved on the upper end of the rotating shaft and located in the receiving groove.

[0074] The above embodiments are merely preferred embodiments of this utility model and should not be construed as limiting the scope of protection of this utility model. Any non-substantial changes and substitutions made by those skilled in the art based on this utility model shall fall within the scope of protection claimed by this utility model.
