Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium battery assembly technology, specifically a battery assembly device. Background Technology

[0002] In the production and integration of lithium batteries, it is usually necessary to precisely assemble individual lithium batteries or battery modules into pre-set assembly frames to form a complete battery system. To achieve safe and efficient assembly operations, existing technologies generally use hoisting equipment in conjunction with clamping and fixing structures as auxiliary devices to lift the lithium batteries and slowly place them into the designated installation area of ​​the assembly frame, thereby completing the assembly.

[0003] Currently, existing assembly auxiliary devices are relatively mature in terms of structural design and functional implementation, and can meet basic hoisting and positioning requirements. However, certain limitations still exist in practical applications. Because the assembly frame typically contains crossbeams, reinforcing ribs, or other partition structures to form multiple independent installation areas, each installation space is relatively small, resulting in poor operational visibility. During the lowering process of the lithium battery, the limited space of the installation area makes it difficult to achieve rapid and accurate alignment with the target position. Operators often need to repeatedly fine-tune the posture and position of the lithium battery to complete the placement, which not only increases the operational difficulty but also significantly reduces assembly efficiency, hindering the needs of large-scale, automated production. Therefore, a battery assembly equipment is proposed. Utility Model Content

Guide rods are installed on the top plate, corresponding one-to-one with guide blocks installed on the guide frame. As the end of the guide rod passes through the guide block, the position of the lithium battery gradually falls into the assembly frame as the top plate moves downward.

[0006] As a further embodiment of this utility model: several connecting plates are installed on both side walls of the guide frame, and the ends of the connecting plates away from the guide frame are connected to the side wall of the base, which can effectively fix the guide frame directly above the base.

[0015] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0016] Please see Figure 1-5 In this embodiment of the present invention, a battery assembly device includes: The base 1 has an alignment groove 31 for limiting the position of the assembly frame 2; Specifically, the shape of the base 1 is not limited. In this embodiment, preferably, the shape of the base 1 is rectangular. The alignment groove 31 extends through the two side walls of the base 1 along the length direction. The bottom of the assembly frame 2 is adapted to the width of the alignment groove 31. The position of the assembly frame 2 is restricted by the inner wall of the alignment groove 31 to ensure that the assembly frame 2 will not move along the width direction of the alignment groove 31 after being inserted into the alignment groove 31, thus ensuring the reliability of the assembly frame 2 when inserted.

[0017] Guide structure 3, connected to base 1, includes: Guide frame 33 is positioned above assembly frame 2; The top plate 34 is located above the guide frame 33 and is used to fix the position of the lithium battery. A guide rod 38 is installed on the top plate 34 and corresponds one-to-one with the guide block 35 installed on the guide frame 33. When the end of the guide rod 38 passes through the guide block 35, as the position of the top plate 34 moves down, the position of the lithium battery gradually falls into the assembly frame 2.

[0018] Specifically, the guide frame 33 has several areas for lithium batteries to pass through, and the guide frame 33 is located directly above the assembly frame 2, ensuring that the lithium batteries can enter the corresponding areas of the assembly frame 2 when passing through the corresponding areas of the guide frame 33. During the assembly of the lithium batteries, the top plate 34 is located directly above the guide frame 33. Several dividing strips 39 are installed on the end face of the top plate 34 near the guide frame 33. Several areas adapted to the ends of the lithium batteries are formed between the dividing strips 39, and each area is equipped with an electronically controlled suction cup 310 for adsorbing the lithium batteries. The electronically controlled suction cup 310 can adsorb and fix the lithium batteries when it is open, and cannot adsorb and fix the lithium batteries when it is closed. The several areas separated by the dividing strips 39 are divided into several regions. The guide blocks 35 are arranged in a series of corresponding areas on the guide frame 33 and within the assembly frame 2 to ensure that the lithium battery can smoothly enter the assembly frame 2. The guide blocks 35 are provided with guide holes 36 for the ends of the guide rods 38 to pass through. The number of guide blocks 35 is not limited. In this embodiment, it is preferred that there are two guide blocks 35, and the two guide blocks 35 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the guide frame 33. When the guide rods 38 pass through the guide holes 36, the movement direction of the top plate 34 can be restricted, so that it can only maintain vertical lifting and lowering. This ensures that during the lithium battery assembly process, it is only necessary to assemble according to the specified path, thereby achieving precise assembly without frequently adjusting the position of the lithium battery for placement, making the overall assembly more convenient and faster.

[0019] The above technical solution ensures that the lithium battery can be quickly and accurately aligned without being limited by the space of the installation area during the placement process. This eliminates the need for operators to repeatedly fine-tune the posture and position of the lithium battery before it can be properly installed, reducing the overall assembly time, improving assembly efficiency, and meeting the needs of large-scale and automated production.

[0020] Please see Figure 2 In one embodiment, preferably, a plurality of connecting plates 32 are installed on both side walls of the guide frame 33, and the ends of the plurality of connecting plates 32 away from the guide frame 33 are connected to the side wall of the base 1. Further, the two ends of the connecting plates 32 are fixedly connected to the guide frame 33 and the base 1 respectively. When the assembly frame 2 is installed, there is a certain gap between the top of the assembly frame 2 and the bottom of the guide frame 33. The number of connecting plates 32 is not limited. In this embodiment, preferably, the number of connecting plates 32 is four, and the four connecting plates 32 are symmetrically arranged in pairs on the two side walls of the base 1.

[0021] Please see Figure 3 In one embodiment, preferably, the end of the guide rod 38 is connected to the top plate 34 through a rectangular plate 37, and the number of guide rods 38 is the same as the number of guide blocks 35, and the guide rods 38 and guide blocks 35 correspond one-to-one. The guide rods 38 are fixed to the top plate 34 through the rectangular plate 37. When the ends of several guide rods 38 enter the guide holes 36 of the guide blocks 35, the installation of the lithium battery will no longer be offset.

[0022] Please see Figure 3-5 In one embodiment, preferably, it further includes an adjustment structure 4, which is connected to the base 1. The adjustment structure 4 includes: Mounting frame 41 is located on the side of base 1; The first motor 42 is installed inside the mounting frame 41. Its output end extends out of the top of the mounting frame 41 and is connected to the transmission rod 43. A disc 44 is installed on the end of the transmission rod 43 away from the first motor 42. A hollow frame 45 is installed at the end of the disk 44, and the hollow frame 45 has a through groove 49 on the side near the top plate 34. A threaded rod 47 is located inside the hollow frame 45, and its end is connected to a second motor 46 installed on the top of the hollow frame 45. A threaded hole block 48 is installed on the threaded rod 47, which slides with the hollow frame 45. A sliding connecting rod 410 is installed on the threaded hole block 48, which passes through the through groove 49 and is connected to the top plate 34.

[0023] Specifically, the mounting frame 41 is fixedly installed on the side wall of the base 1, which is perpendicular to the side wall of the fixed connecting plate 32. The side wall of the mounting frame 41 can restrict one side of the assembly frame 2, ensuring that the assembly frame 2 is in the same position after each installation without deviation. The first motor 42 is installed inside the mounting frame 41. The first motor 42 is controlled by the control system to start, stop and rotate in both directions. The output end of the first motor 42 passes through the mounting frame 41 and is fixedly connected to the transmission rod 43. The end of the transmission rod 43 is fixedly connected to the disc 44. The disc 44 serves as a support platform to support the hollow frame 45, and the hollow frame 45 is fixedly connected to the disc 44 and can rotate synchronously with the disc 44. The top plate 34 can be adjusted by turning on the first motor 42. In the horizontal direction, a second motor 46 is installed at the end of the hollow frame 45 away from the disk 44. The second motor 46 is also controlled by the control system to start, stop and rotate in both directions. The output end of the second motor 46 extends into the interior of the hollow frame 45 and is fixedly connected to the threaded rod 47. The other end of the threaded rod 47 is rotatably connected to the inner wall of the hollow frame 45. The screw hole block 48 slides with the inner wall of the hollow frame 45 to restrict the rotation of the screw hole block 48. The threaded rod 47 passes through the screw hole block 48 and is threadedly connected to the screw hole block 48. When the threaded rod 47 rotates, the screw hole block 48 cannot rotate and can only move along the length of the threaded rod 47. The screw hole block 48 is fixedly connected to the top plate 34 by a sliding connecting rod 410. Therefore, when the screw hole block 48 moves, it also drives the top plate 34 to move synchronously, realizing the lifting and lowering of multiple lithium batteries on the top plate 34, thereby providing driving force for the assembled lithium batteries.

[0024] Please see Figure 4 In one embodiment, preferably, the through groove 49 is arranged along the length direction of the hollow frame 45, and the width of the through groove 49 is greater than the diameter of the end face of the sliding connecting rod 410, thereby limiting the movement range of the top plate 34. When the sliding connecting rod 410 contacts the bottom of the through groove 49, the lithium battery is just placed inside the assembly frame 2. When the sliding connecting rod 410 contacts the top of the through groove 49, the end of the guide rod 38 disengages from the guide hole 36 on the guide block 35.

[0025] Working principle and usage process of this utility model: First, place the assembly frame 2 inside the alignment slot 31, so that the side wall of the assembly frame 2 abuts against the mounting frame 41, thereby restricting the position of the assembly frame 2. Then, adjust the top plate 34 to a suitable height for lithium battery assembly. After the lithium battery is installed, start the second motor 46 to raise the top plate 34 and the lithium battery together. After the lithium battery is raised to a height higher than the guide frame 33, start the first motor 42 to drive the disc 44 and the hollow frame 45 to rotate, thereby driving the top plate 34 to rotate. When the top plate 34 is rotated 180 degrees and is directly above the guide frame 33, start the second motor 46 to rotate in the opposite direction. At this time, the top plate 34 drives the lithium battery to fall. At the same time as falling, the end of the guide rod 38 enters the guide hole 36 of the guide block 35. At this time, the movement direction of the top block 34 is restricted to ensure that the lithium battery can pass through the guide frame 33 and enter the interior of the assembly frame 2, thereby completing the placement assembly. Finally, close the electronically controlled suction cup 310 that fixes the lithium battery, thereby completing the separation of the lithium battery from the top plate 34.
