Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device, belonging to the field of solid-state battery recycling technology. Background Technology

[0002] When recycling and crushing solid-state batteries, the sulfides in their material components readily react with water vapor to generate toxic hydrosulfuric acid. Therefore, crushing operations must be carried out in a closed, water-free environment. However, in this type of operation, it is difficult for humans to work in such a closed environment, making it difficult to perform simple screening of the crushed products. This results in different materials being mixed together, making it difficult to separate them for secondary crushing. Therefore, in solid-state battery recycling operations, how to achieve the crushing and sorting of solid-state batteries in a closed environment has become one of the urgent technical problems to be solved. Summary of the Invention

[0003] The purpose of this invention is to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and provide a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device for manually sorting the crushed products after the solid-state battery is crushed, ensuring the separation between different components so as to facilitate subsequent secondary processing of the materials.

[0004] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model employs the following technical solution: This utility model provides a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device, including a glove box. The glove box has multiple discharge pipes arranged along its extension direction. Each discharge pipe is equipped with a sealing component for closing the discharge pipe. The glove box has a first conveyor line inside, and the conveying direction of the first conveyor line is parallel to the arrangement direction of the discharge pipes. A crushing mechanism is arranged above the starting end of the first conveyor line. The crushing mechanism includes two symmetrically arranged crushing rollers and a motor for driving the crushing rollers to rotate. A storage box is arranged at the discharge port below the two crushing rollers.

[0005] Specifically, a second conveyor line is also provided inside the glove box and above the first conveyor line, with the discharge end of the second conveyor line close to the top of the crushing mechanism.

[0006] Specifically, the glove box is provided with a feeding port near the feeding position of the second conveyor line, a sealing plate is provided at the feeding port, and a discharge plate is provided at the bottom of the feeding port.

[0007] Specifically, a discharge trough is provided inside the glove box at the location of the discharge pipe inlet.

[0008] Specifically, the glove box is equipped with a material discharge compartment for placing boxes.

[0009] Specifically, a push plate is provided at the bottom of the placement box discharge hopper, and the push plate can be driven to rise and fall by a drive structure.

[0010] Specifically, the glove box is also equipped with an exhaust pipe, and the bottom of the exhaust pipe is connected to a hollow suction pipe. The inside of the hollow suction pipe is equipped with a filter cloth to prevent materials from entering the exhaust pipe.

[0011] Specifically, the air intake hollow tube has a tapering cross-section from top to bottom, and an exhaust pipe is also connected to the air intake hollow tube. The exhaust pipe is connected to an air pump, and control valves are installed on both the air intake pipe and the exhaust pipe.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects achieved by this utility model are as follows: This invention utilizes a glove box to provide a closed crushing environment by setting up a corresponding conveyor line inside the glove box and a roller crushing mechanism above the conveyor line. This prevents the crushed products from reacting with the air and allows the crusher to quickly crush solid-state batteries. The crushed material falls onto a tray below the conveyor, making it easy for manual sorting of internal metal shell materials, membrane materials, etc., for subsequent crushing or other processing.

[0016] In the description of this utility model, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," and "joining" should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral connection; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; and they can refer to the internal connection of two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model based on the specific circumstances. Example:

[0017] This utility model provides a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device for manually sorting the crushed products after solid-state battery crushing, ensuring the separation of different components to facilitate subsequent secondary processing of materials. To achieve the device's structural function, it includes a glove box 1. An inert gas cylinder should be installed on the side of the glove box 1 to provide a closed environment or inert gas environment, facilitating operation inside the equipment. To facilitate the delivery of the crushed and sorted items out of the glove box 1, multiple discharge pipes 2 can be arranged along its extension direction. To maintain the sealing function of the glove box 1 under normal operating conditions, each discharge pipe 2 is equipped with a sealing component for sealing the discharge pipe 2, which can be a control valve or a sealing cap assembly, etc. The sealing method is not limited here. To achieve continuous material transfer and facilitate manual placement of different materials at different discharge pipe 2 positions, a first conveyor line 3 can be set inside the glove box 1. The conveying direction of the first conveyor line 3 can be configured parallel to the arrangement direction of the discharge pipe 2. To achieve the material crushing action, a crushing mechanism 4 is set above the starting end of the first conveyor line 3. Specifically, the crushing mechanism 4 can be configured to include two symmetrically arranged crushing rollers and a motor for driving the crushing rollers to rotate, which is used to decompose the solid-state battery through compression and tearing action. It should be noted that during operation, a storage box is set at the discharge port position below the two crushing rollers to prevent the powder generated after crushing from falling directly onto the conveyor line and causing inconvenience for cleaning. After the corresponding materials (such as metal shells, powdered materials, and film materials) are manually sorted, these materials should first be placed in a sealed container and then put into the discharge pipe 2. After a certain amount of material accumulates in the discharge pipe 2, it can be removed by opening the sealing component.

[0018] This utility model provides a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device. To facilitate manual handling of waste solid-state batteries and their feeding into the crusher, a second conveyor line 5 can be installed inside the glove box 1, above the first conveyor line 3. The discharge end of the second conveyor line 5 is positioned near the top of the crushing mechanism 4. Manual handling allows for direct feeding of solid-state batteries into the crusher structure, with manual control of the process. This method is convenient and the sorting process is more reliable. In some other embodiments, a feed inlet can be provided at the feeding position of the glove box 1 near the second conveyor line 5. Under normal conditions, a sealing plate should be installed at the feed inlet to ensure the airtightness of the glove box 1. To temporarily store solid-state batteries when the equipment is stopped, facilitating their rapid feeding onto the second conveyor line 5, a discharge plate 10 can be installed at the bottom of the feed inlet. The discharge plate 10 is used to temporarily store solid-state batteries, allowing for rapid feeding after the glove box 1 is opened.

[0019] This utility model provides a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device. In order to improve the storage performance of the discharge pipe 2, a discharge slot 9 can be provided inside the glove box 1 and at the position of the discharge pipe 2 inlet. By widening the storage volume through the discharge slot 9, the storage volume of materials can be increased, which is conducive to continuous operation and ensures crushing and sorting efficiency.

[0020] This utility model provides a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device. To facilitate manual retrieval of the placement boxes (which can be used to temporarily support or package materials to form a closed environment), a placement box discharge bin 8 can be provided inside the glove box 1. In some preferred embodiments, a push plate structure can be configured at the bottom of the placement box discharge bin 8, and the push plate can be driven to rise and fall by a drive structure (not shown in the figure). At this time, the relevant placement box or tray can be placed above the push plate structure, and the relevant drive mechanism will push it out, thereby realizing the gradual retrieval function of the placement box. Alternatively, it can be configured to rise on one side and fall on the other side, thereby facilitating the temporary storage of the placement boxes.

[0021] This utility model provides a solid-state battery crushing and sorting device. To avoid the inconvenience of manually putting bags on small products after the powdered or membrane materials are decomposed, an air extraction pipe 6 is also provided on the glove box 1, and a suction hollow pipe 7 is connected to the bottom of the air extraction pipe 6. The negative pressure of the air extraction pipe 6 is used to adsorb the materials. In order to ensure that the materials can be sent out normally, at least a filter cloth (not shown in the figure) should be provided inside the suction hollow pipe 7 to prevent the materials from entering the air extraction pipe 6. The function of the filter cloth is to intercept small particles. After the negative pressure of the air extraction pipe 6 is disconnected, the internal particles will sink and fall out naturally under the action of gravity. For membrane materials, it can be configured to only adsorb at the front end of the suction hollow pipe 7. As a preferred configuration, the suction hollow tube 7 can be configured to have a tapering cross-section from top to bottom. To prevent particulate material from clogging the inside of the suction hollow tube 7, an exhaust pipe can also be connected to the suction hollow tube 7, and the exhaust pipe can be connected to an air pump (not shown in the figure; in this case, the air source of the air pump comes from the inert gas inside the glove box 1). When it is necessary to remove the material in the tube, the exhaust pipe can supply blown gas into the suction hollow tube 7. In order to achieve good intermittent control, control valves should be installed on both the suction pipe 6 and the exhaust pipe. For convenient control, corresponding suction and discharge buttons can be installed on the suction hollow tube 7. Other specific working methods are not further limited here.

[0022] The above description is only a preferred embodiment of the present utility model. It should be noted that for those skilled in the art, several improvements and modifications can be made without departing from the technical principles of the present utility model, and these improvements and modifications should also be considered within the protection scope of the present utility model.
