[0021] For reference Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the first conveying device 1 includes a first conveying mechanism 11 and a second conveying mechanism 12 arranged vertically and in parallel. The first conveying mechanism 11 is used to convey a tray loaded with battery boxes and battery bodies from the loading end to the unloading end, and the second conveying mechanism 12 is used to convey an empty tray from the unloading end to the loading end, so as to realize the rapid recycling of the tray. The vertical arrangement of the first conveying mechanism 11 and the second conveying mechanism 12 can improve the space utilization rate.

[0022] For reference Figure 1As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, the screw and nut fixing device 4 includes a side screw and nut fixing device 41 and a top screw and nut fixing device 42. The side screw and nut fixing device 41 is used to tighten and fix the screws and nuts located on the sides of the battery box and the battery body, and the top screw and nut fixing device 42 is used to tighten and fix the screws and nuts located on the top of the battery box and the battery body. The side screw and nut fixing device 41 and the top screw and nut fixing device 42 are both prior art and will not be described in detail.

[0023] For reference Figure 3 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a first lifting mechanism 9a and a second lifting mechanism 9b are also included. The first lifting mechanism 9a is disposed at the loading end of the first conveying mechanism 11 and the loading end of the second conveying mechanism 12, and the second lifting mechanism 9b is disposed at the unloading end of the first conveying mechanism 11 and the unloading end of the second conveying mechanism 12. The first lifting mechanism 9a drives the first conveying mechanism 11 to lift, and the second lifting mechanism 9b drives the second conveying mechanism 12 to lift.

[0024] For reference Figure 3 As shown, the first conveying device 1 further includes a sixth conveying mechanism 10a and a seventh conveying mechanism 10b. The sixth conveying mechanism 10a is disposed at the loading end of the first conveying mechanism 11 and the second conveying mechanism 12; the seventh conveying mechanism 10b is disposed at the unloading end of the first conveying mechanism 11 and the second conveying mechanism 12. The sixth conveying mechanism 10a is driven to rise and fall by the first lifting mechanism 9a to connect with the loading end of the first conveying mechanism 11 and the loading end of the second conveying mechanism 12, so that the pallet can be transferred from the second conveying mechanism 12 to the sixth conveying mechanism 10a and then from the sixth conveying mechanism 10a to the first conveying mechanism 11. The seventh conveying mechanism 10b is driven to rise and fall by the second lifting mechanism 9b to connect with the unloading end of the first conveying mechanism 11 and the unloading end of the second conveying mechanism 12, so that the pallet can be transferred from the first conveying mechanism 11 to the seventh conveying mechanism 10b and then from the seventh conveying mechanism 10b to the second conveying mechanism 12.

[0025] For reference Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the first transfer device 3 is configured as a gantry crane, which is used to lift the battery box and battery body located on the second conveying mechanism 12 into the packaging box of the second conveying device 2.

[0026] For reference Figure 2As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a third transfer device 7a is further provided at one end of the second conveying device 2. The third transfer device 7a includes a robotic arm 7a1 and a vacuum adsorption component 7a2 connected to the robotic arm 7a1. After the robotic arm 7a1 adsorbs the packaging box through the vacuum adsorption component 7a2, it transfers the packaging box from the second conveying device 2 to the next work station. In other embodiments, the vacuum adsorption component 7a2 can be replaced by a gripper component.

[0027] For reference Figure 2 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a third conveying device 8 and a rotating device are also provided on one side of the second conveying device 2. The robotic arm 7a1 places the packaging box on the third conveying device 8 and is conveyed by the third conveying device 8 to the next work station. Before the third conveying device 8 conveys the packaging box to the next work station, the rotating device drives the third conveying device 8 to rotate, so that the stretch film is automatically wrapped around the outside of the packaging box, reducing the scratches on the appearance of the packaging box.

[0028] Furthermore, the rotating device includes a turntable 82 and a drive motor 83 that drives the turntable 82 to rotate, and a third conveying device 81 is disposed on the turntable 82.

[0029] For reference Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a first blocking and positioning assembly 26 is further included, consisting of a baffle 262, a first side plate 263, and a second side plate 261. The baffle 262 is disposed on the second conveying device 2 and perpendicular to the conveying direction of the second conveying device 2. The baffle 262 is used to stop the packaging box, which facilitates the robot arm to accurately grasp the packaging box. The first side plate 263 and the second side plate 261 are disposed opposite each other on both sides of the second conveying device 2. One of the first side plate 263 and the second side plate 261 is configured to be able to approach the other. For example, when the packaging box is stopped by the baffle 262, the cylinder 264 drives the first side plate 263 to move toward the second side plate 261, so that the first side plate 263 and the second side plate 261 press the packaging box together from both sides, preventing the packaging box from moving sideways, which is conducive to the robot arm 7a1 accurately grasping the packaging box.

[0030] For reference Figure 4 and Figure 6As shown, in one embodiment of this utility model, a second stop positioning assembly 25 is further included, consisting of a lifting plate 253, a third side plate 251, and a cylinder 251. The lifting plate 253 is disposed on the second conveying device 2 and perpendicular to the conveying direction of the second conveying device 2. The lifting plate 253 is used to stop the packaging box so that the first transfer device 3 can place the battery box and battery body assembly into the packaging box. The third side plate 251 is disposed on one side of the second conveying device 2. When the packaging box is stopped by the lifting plate 253, the cylinder 251 drives the third side plate 251 to move laterally along the second conveying device 2. The third side plate 251 is used to push the packaging box to move, which is used to fine-tune the position of the packaging box so that the battery box and battery body assembly can be accurately placed into the packaging box. The lifting plate 253 is driven to rise and fall by the cylinder 251 to avoid the packaging box.

[0031] For reference Figure 6 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, rollers 254 are provided on the surface of the lifting plate 253. The rollers 254 are used to reduce the friction between the packaging box and the lifting plate 253, so that the third side plate 251 can be pushed more smoothly; the rotation axis of the rollers 254 is perpendicular to the ground.

[0032] For reference Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the second conveying device 2 includes a third conveying mechanism 21, a fourth conveying mechanism 22 and a fifth conveying mechanism 23 connected in sequence, wherein the second stop positioning component 25 is disposed on the third conveying mechanism 21, the box sealing machine 6 is disposed on the fourth conveying mechanism 22, and the first stop positioning component 26 is disposed on the fifth conveying mechanism 23.

[0033] For reference Figure 4 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, the fourth conveying mechanism 22 is disposed on the movable frame 24, and the movable frame 24 is provided with casters to facilitate the movement of the fourth conveying mechanism 22.

[0034] For reference Figure 1 As shown, in one embodiment of the present invention, a second transfer device 7b is further included for transferring the battery box and the battery body to the first conveying mechanism 11. The second transfer device 7b is disposed at the loading end of the first conveying device 1 and the second transfer device 7b is a crane.

[0035] The working principle of the battery box and battery body packaging line described in this utility model is as follows: The tray waits on the sixth conveyor mechanism 10a. After the second transfer device 7b places the battery box and battery body on the tray, the sixth conveyor mechanism 10a transports the tray to the first conveyor mechanism 11. The first conveyor mechanism 11 continues to transport the tray. When the battery box and battery body pass the side screw and nut fixing device 41, the side screws and nuts are tightened. When they pass the top screw and nut fixing device 42, the top screws and nuts are tightened. Then, the tray is transported by the first conveyor mechanism 11 to the seventh conveyor mechanism 10b. At the same time, the case opener 5 unfolds a packaging box and places it on the third conveyor mechanism 21. The lifting plate 253 rises to block the packaging box. Then the first transfer... The loading device 3 lifts the battery box and battery body on the pallet into the packaging box. The empty pallet descends and flows back to the loading end through the second conveying mechanism 12. The lifting plate 253 descends and the packaging box is conveyed to the fourth conveying mechanism 22. After the sealing machine 6 seals the packaging box, the packaging box continues to be conveyed to the fifth conveying mechanism 23. When the packaging box is stopped and limited by the first stop positioning component 26, the robotic arm 7a1 adsorbs the packaging box through the vacuum adsorption component 7a2 and transfers it to the third conveying device 8. The rotating device drives the third conveying device 8 to rotate, so that the stretch film is automatically wrapped around the packaging box. Finally, the third conveying device 8 conveys the packaging box wrapped with stretch film to the next station.

[0036] Obviously, the above embodiments are merely illustrative examples for clear explanation and are not intended to limit the implementation. Those skilled in the art will recognize that other variations or modifications can be made based on the above description. It is neither necessary nor possible to exhaustively list all possible implementations here. However, obvious variations or modifications derived therefrom are still within the protection scope of this invention.
