Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This application belongs to the field of battery production technology, specifically relating to a clamping device, battery testing equipment, and battery production line. Background Technology
[0002] During the battery production process, after being scanned by the feeding turntable, the battery enters the tab alignment station, and then flows through the transition station, correction station, NG station and other stations before entering the testing station to perform short circuit testing on the battery.
[0003] During battery short-circuit testing, the relative positions of the electrode clamps and the electrodes must be consistent, and the electrodes must not be bent. However, if the battery holder is loose, the battery will wobble within the holder. Therefore, the battery needs to be secured and its concentricity with the holder must be ensured to improve battery positioning accuracy. In existing battery short-circuit testing devices, the electrode clamping mechanism, battery clamping mechanism, and holder mechanism all require independent installation and adjustment, resulting in low relative positional accuracy between these mechanisms and hindering precise battery positioning.

[0044] The following is combined Figures 1-6 This application describes a clamping device, a battery 7 testing device, and a battery 7 production line according to embodiments of the present application.
[0045] like Figures 1 to 3 As shown, according to a first aspect of this application, a clamping device is provided, including: a mounting frame 1, a tab clamping mechanism 2, a battery clamping mechanism 3, and a cup holder fixture mechanism 4; the cup holder fixture mechanism 4 is used to support a cup 6, the tab clamping mechanism 2, the battery clamping mechanism 3, and the cup holder fixture mechanism 4 are all disposed on the mounting frame 1, so that the battery clamping mechanism 3 can clamp the battery 7 in the cup 6, and the tab clamping mechanism 2 can clamp the tab 71 of the battery 7.
[0046] Specifically, in this embodiment, by fixing the tab clamping mechanism 2, the battery clamping mechanism 3, and the cup holder fixture mechanism 4 onto the same mounting bracket 1, the relative positional accuracy between these three mechanisms is high. This ensures that when the cup holder fixture mechanism 4 carries the cup 6, the battery clamping mechanism 3 can accurately clamp and fix the battery 7 within the cup 6. When the battery 7 is accurately positioned, the position of the tab clamping mechanism 2 relative to the battery clamping mechanism 3 remains unchanged. Therefore, its clamping of the tab 71 of the battery 7 is more precise, avoiding the problem of the tab 71 bending when clamped by the tab clamping mechanism 2, thus improving the production yield of the battery 7. Especially when the cup 6 is loose, the position of the battery clamping mechanism 3 relative to the cup holder fixture mechanism 4 remains unchanged, ensuring that the battery 7 and the cup 6 are concentric, making the positioning of the battery 7 by the battery clamping mechanism 3 more accurate.
[0047] The clamping device provided in this application can be assembled as a single module into the battery 7 testing equipment, avoiding assembly errors when each mechanism is installed independently, simplifying the structure and assembly difficulty of the clamping device. Furthermore, during the battery 7 short-circuit test, there is no need to readjust the positions of the tab clamping mechanism 2, the battery clamping mechanism 3, and the cup holder mechanism 4, improving testing efficiency, accuracy, and product yield. Specifically, when the battery 7 testing equipment performs a short-circuit test on the battery 7, the grippers of the tab clamping mechanism 2 are configured to be conductive. Additionally, the mounting bracket 1 can be designed as a plate structure to simplify the structure of the clamping device and reduce installation difficulty.
[0048] Optionally, such as Figures 1 to 3 As shown, the tab clamping mechanism 2, the battery clamping mechanism 3, and the cup holder mechanism 4 are arranged sequentially on the mounting frame 1 from top to bottom along the vertical direction (refer to the Z direction in the attached figure).
[0049] Specifically, in the short-circuit detection process of battery 7, multiple clamping devices are typically installed at intervals around the turntable to improve the detection efficiency of battery 7 and adapt to the entire battery 7 production process. In this embodiment, the mounting frame 1 can be configured as a long strip-shaped plate structure, and the tab clamping mechanism 2, battery clamping mechanism 3, and cup holder fixture mechanism 4 are sequentially fixed on the strip-shaped mounting frame 1 in the vertical direction. This reduces the space occupied by the clamping devices in the horizontal direction, increases the number of clamping devices assembled around the turntable, and thus improves the detection efficiency of battery 7. In addition, arranging each mechanism sequentially in the vertical direction simplifies the installation difficulty of each mechanism, facilitates positioning, reduces assembly errors, and further improves the accuracy of battery 7 positioning.
[0050] Optionally, such as Figure 1As shown, the cup holder mechanism 4 includes a support part 41 and a limiting part 42. The support part 41 can support and absorb the cup 6, and the limiting part 42 is provided with a first groove 421 that matches the outer contour of the cup 6. The first groove 421 can restrict the movement of the cup 6.
[0051] Specifically, in this embodiment, the cup holder mechanism 4 includes a support portion 41, which may be provided with a magnetic material or magnetic element, so that when the cup 6 is placed on the support portion 41, it can be attracted to the support portion 41, preventing the cup 6 from falling or moving; and a first groove 421 is provided in the limiting portion 42, so that when the cup 6 is placed on the cup holder mechanism 4, at least a part of the outline of the cup 6 can be embedded in the first groove 421, preventing the cup 6 from moving radially. Through the limitation of the support portion 41 and the first groove 421, the cup 6 can be accurately positioned and held in the appropriate position, so as to ensure the positional accuracy of the battery 7 inside the cup 6.
[0052] In practical applications, the entire cup holder mechanism 4 can be made of magnetic material to further ensure the reliability of the cup holder 6's position. Specifically, the shape of the first groove 421 matches the outer contour of the cup holder 6, meaning it can be set as an arc-shaped groove.
[0053] Optionally, such as Figure 1 As shown, the limiting part 42 is also provided with a second groove 422 that matches the outer contour of the battery 7. The second groove 422 can restrict the movement of the battery 7 inside the cup 6.
[0054] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second groove 422 ensures that when the cup 6 is positioned on the support 41, the battery 7 is located at a predetermined position within the cup 6, facilitating concentricity between the battery 7 and the cup 6 and further improving the accuracy of battery positioning. The shape of the second groove 422 matches the outer contour of the cup 6, i.e., it can be configured as an arc-shaped groove.
[0055] like Figures 1 to 6 As shown, according to a second aspect of this application, a battery testing device is provided, comprising: a turntable mechanism 5 and one or more clamping devices of the first aspect, wherein the one or more clamping devices are spaced apart on the periphery of the turntable mechanism 5 by means of a mounting frame 1; wherein the jaws of the tab clamping mechanism 2 are made of conductive material.
[0056] Specifically, in this embodiment, a battery testing device is provided. A turntable mechanism 5 is equipped with one or more clamping devices, enabling the turntable mechanism 5 to drive a battery clamping mechanism 3 to clamp or release the battery 7 inside the holder 6, and to drive a tab clamping mechanism 2 to clamp or release the tabs 71 of the battery 7 when rotating. The jaws of the tab clamping mechanism 2 are made of conductive material, allowing for short-circuit testing of the battery 7 when the jaws clamp the tabs 71, thereby improving product yield.
[0057] In the above structure, when multiple clamping devices are spaced apart on the turntable mechanism 5, the multiple clamping devices can simultaneously clamp and fix multiple cups 6 and the batteries 7 inside the cups 6, improving the detection efficiency of the battery 7 detection device. Specifically, the clamping of the battery 7 and the tab 71 by the battery clamping mechanism 3 and the tab clamping mechanism 2 can be achieved by separate drive mechanisms or by the rotation of the turntable. The rotation of the turntable mechanism 5 can be achieved by a drive mechanism such as a motor. The specific design can be tailored to the specific structure of the battery detection equipment and is not limited here.
[0058] In addition, the clamping device provided in the first aspect of this application is an integrated modular structure, which simplifies the assembly difficulty of assembling it on the turntable mechanism 5, reduces assembly errors, improves the accuracy of positioning the battery 7, avoids the situation of the tab 71 bending during the short circuit detection process of the battery 7, and improves the product yield.
[0059] Optionally, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the turntable mechanism 5 includes a first turntable 51, a second turntable 52, and a base 53; the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 are rotatably stacked on the base 53 at intervals, and the two ends of the mounting bracket 1 are fixed to the periphery of the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52, respectively; when the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 rotate, the jaws of the battery clamping mechanism 3 and / or the jaws of the electrode clamping mechanism 2 open or close.
[0060] Specifically, in this embodiment, based on the installation requirements of simultaneously installing the tab clamping mechanism 2, the battery clamping mechanism 3, and the cup holder mechanism 4, and considering that the turntable mechanism 5 needs to assemble as many clamping devices as possible, resulting in a longer dimension of the clamping devices in a certain direction (e.g., the vertical Z direction), the arrangement of the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 makes the installation of the strip-shaped mounting bracket 1 on the turntable mechanism 5 more reliable, improving the stability of the equipment operation. Furthermore, the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 can be stacked vertically on the base 53, which facilitates the installation of the entire device in other equipment or fixed to an external structure via the base 53, and also improves the stability of the turntable mechanism 5.
[0061] In the above structure, the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 rotate simultaneously, thereby causing the jaws of the battery clamping mechanism 3 and / or the jaws of the tab clamping mechanism 2 mounted on one or more clamping devices on the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 to open or close, so as to clamp or release the battery 7 and / or the tab 71. The rotation of the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 achieves the opening or closing of the jaws, eliminating the need for a separate drive mechanism for the battery clamping mechanism 3 or the tab clamping mechanism 2, greatly simplifying the number of parts in the entire battery testing equipment and saving equipment costs.
[0062] Optionally, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, a first mating part (not shown) is provided on the base 53. The electrode clamping mechanism 2 includes a first transmission component and a first clamping component, and the first clamping component is connected to the first transmission component. When the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 rotate, the first mating part causes the jaws of the first clamping component to open or close through the first transmission component. And / or, a second mating part is provided on the base 53. The battery clamping mechanism 3 includes a second transmission component and a second clamping component, and the second clamping component is connected to the second transmission component. When the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 rotate, the second mating part causes the jaws of the second clamping component to open or close through the second transmission component.
[0063] Specifically, in this embodiment, by providing a first mating part and / or a second mating part on the base 53, when the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 rotate, the first mating part can drive the jaws of the first clamping component to open or close through the first transmission component, so as to clamp or release the battery 7 tab 71; while the second mating part can drive the jaws of the second clamping component to open or close through the second transmission component. This realizes that the opening and closing of multiple clamping mechanisms on multiple clamping devices can be achieved by only one drive mechanism that drives the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 to rotate, which greatly saves production costs.
[0064] In the above structure, the specific forms of the first mating part and the second mating part can be designed to match the specific forms of the first transmission component and the second transmission component. For example, when the transmission component adopts cam transmission, the first mating part and the second mating part can be realized by setting a structure that enables the transmission component to follow a set trajectory, or by transmission forms such as gears and belts. This application does not limit this.
[0065] Optionally, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the first mating part has a first annular convex surface (not shown in the figure). The first transmission assembly includes a first guide rail 21, a first connecting block 22, and a cam follower structure 23. The first guide rail 21 is fixed on the mounting bracket 1. The cam follower structure 23 is movably mounted on the first guide rail 21 through the first connecting block 22 and contacts the first annular convex surface. (Refer to...) Figures 1 to 3 The first clamping assembly includes a second connecting block 24, a first elastic element 25, and a clamping body 26. The clamping body 26 is fixed to the mounting bracket 1 via the second connecting block 24 and is connected to the cam follower structure 23. The first elastic element 25 connects the cam follower structure 23 and the clamping body 26. (See reference...) Figures 1 to 3 When the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 rotate, the first annular convex surface causes the cam follower structure 23 to reciprocate along the extension direction of the first guide rail 21, and the cam follower structure 23 causes the jaws of the clamping body 26 to open or close.
[0066] Specifically, in this embodiment, the first annular convex surface can be designed as a curved surface with a higher and lower position in the vertical direction. When the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 drive the mounting bracket 1 to rotate, a part of the cam follower structure 23 (e.g., the driven bearing) moves along the first annular convex surface, thereby realizing reciprocating movement along the extension direction (e.g., the vertical direction Z) of the first guide rail 21 via the first connecting block 22. The cam follower structure 23 is connected to the clamping body 26, so that the reciprocating motion is converted into the opening and closing of the grippers of the clamping body 26, thereby realizing the clamping or releasing of the battery 7 tab 71. The above structure provided in this embodiment simplifies the driving form of the clamping device and reduces the equipment cost.
[0067] In the above structure, the first elastic element 25 allows the cam follower structure 23 to reset, thereby enabling the grippers of the clamping body 26 to clamp the tabs 71 of the battery 7, improving the reliability of clamping. Furthermore, the limiting block 27 restricts the travel of the first connecting block 22 on the first guide rail 21, preventing the first connecting block 22 from derailing and further improving the reliability of the device. The second connecting block 24 ensures that the clamping body 26 is positioned relative to the mounting bracket 1, preventing positional shifts or shaking of the clamping body 26 that could cause the tabs 71 to bend.
[0068] Optionally, such as Figures 4 to 6 As shown, the second mating part has a second annular convex surface 531; the second transmission assembly includes a second guide rail 31 and a cam connecting rod structure 32. The second guide rail 31 is fixed on the mounting bracket 1. One end of the cam connecting rod structure 32 contacts the second annular convex surface 531, and the other end is connected to the second clamping assembly; the second clamping assembly includes a second elastic element 33, a first jaw 34, and a second jaw 35. The first jaw 34 and the second jaw 35 are slidably mounted on the second guide rail 31, and the second elastic element 33 is connected between the first jaw 34 and the second jaw 35; when the first turntable 51 and the second turntable 52 rotate, the second annular convex surface 531 enables the cam connecting rod structure 32 to drive the first jaw 34 and the second jaw 35 to move away from each other along the extension direction of the second guide rail 31, and the second elastic element 33 resets the first jaw 34 and the second jaw 35.
[0069] Specifically, in this embodiment, the second mating part can be configured with a structure similar to the first mating part, so that when one end of the cam connecting rod structure 32 moves along the second annular convex surface 531, it can drive the first gripper 34 and the second gripper 35 to move away from each other along the extension direction of the second guide rail 31 (refer to the X direction in the figure), thereby realizing the opening of the first gripper 34 and the second gripper 35. The setting of the second elastic member 33 can make the first gripper 34 and the second gripper 35 move closer to each other, thereby realizing the clamping and clamping of the battery 7, and improving the reliability of the battery clamping mechanism 3 in clamping the battery 7.
[0070] According to a third aspect of this application, a battery production line is provided, comprising: a clamping device as described in the first aspect; or a battery testing device as described in the second aspect.
[0071] Specifically, in this embodiment, the battery production line includes the clamping device provided in the first aspect, or the battery testing equipment provided in the second aspect. The clamping device, consisting of the collector clamping mechanism 2, the battery clamping mechanism 3, and the cup holder fixture mechanism 4, is mounted on the same mounting frame 1, which improves the relative positional accuracy between the mechanisms and thus improves the accuracy of battery 7 positioning. When applied to the battery 7 production line, it can improve the production yield of the battery 7. In addition, when the battery testing equipment includes multiple clamping devices, it can improve the production efficiency of the battery 7.
