[0001] Cross-references

[0002] This application refers to Chinese patent application No. 202410131055.X filed on January 31, 2024, entitled “Dust removal mechanism, dust removal equipment, dust removal method and battery production system”, which is incorporated into this application in its entirety by reference. Technical Field

[0003] The present application relates to the technical field of dust removal, and in particular to a dust removal mechanism, dust removal equipment, dust removal method and battery production system. Background Art

[0004] A battery module generally consists of battery cells, busbars, and other components. The busbars usually need to be welded to the positive and negative electrodes of the battery cells to achieve series or parallel connection between the battery cells.

[0005] During laser welding of battery modules, slag splashes and dust particles adhere to the busbar surface. Conventional cleaning methods often involve manual cleaning of the busbars using air guns or brushes, but this results in low cleaning efficiency and poor results.

[0006] Summary of the Invention

[0007] In view of the problem, the present application provides a dust removal mechanism, dust removal equipment, dust removal method and battery production system, which can alleviate the problem of low bus cleaning efficiency and poor cleaning effect during laser welding of battery modules.

[0008] In a first aspect, the present application provides a dust removal mechanism, comprising:

[0009] Mounting seat;

[0010] A cleaning member is rotatably mounted on a mounting seat about an axis; and

[0011] At least two dust collecting members are arranged on the mounting seat and located on the periphery of the cleaning member and on opposite sides of the cleaning member along a direction intersecting the axis. The dust collecting member has a dust collecting port which is separated from the cleaning member.

[0012] When the dust removal mechanism needs to remove dust from the part to be cleaned, the cleaning member of the dust removal mechanism can be rotated to clean the part to be cleaned, and the dust particles adhering to the cleaning member, or the dust particles raised by the cleaning member during cleaning, or the dust particles on the part to be cleaned can be sucked away from the dust suction port through the dust suction member on the periphery of the cleaning member, thereby achieving dust collection. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism of the embodiment of the present application cleans the part to be cleaned by the rotating cleaning member, and absorbs the dust particles through the dust suction member. In addition, the dust suction member is arranged on the periphery of the cleaning member, and the dust suction port is also separated from the cleaning member, which can help reduce the area of ​​the dust suction port and make the dust suction port have a stronger suction force. At least two dust suction members are located on opposite sides of the cleaning member in a direction intersecting with the axis, which can improve the suction efficiency within a limited space, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency as a whole, and the cleaning stability and cleaning effect are good. In addition, the dust removal mechanism is also suitable for the automated production of the part to be cleaned.

[0013] In some embodiments, the dust removal mechanism includes a rotating shaft, and the cleaning member is rotatably disposed on the mounting seat via the rotating shaft. In a direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft, the dust collecting member is located on one side of the cleaning member.

[0014] Since the dust particles to be cleaned will undergo centrifugal motion under the rotation of the cleaning member as it rotates around the rotating shaft, or the cleaning member will be thrown away from the member to be cleaned. Therefore, arranging the dust collection member on one side of the cleaning member in a direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft can adapt to the movement direction of the dust particles, thereby sucking in more dust particles and improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0015] In some embodiments, the dust suction port extends in a direction parallel to the rotation axis.

[0016] In this way, the distribution positions of the dust particles to be cleaned by the cleaning member can be covered as comprehensively as possible, thereby further improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0017] In some embodiments, the cleaning elements include a plurality of cleaning elements, all of which rotate around the same rotating shaft and are spaced apart from each other along the axial direction of the rotating shaft.

[0018] By arranging multiple cleaning members to rotate around the same rotation axis, the cleaning area can be increased, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0019] In some embodiments, the cleaning member includes a cleaning brush barrel, which is rotatably mounted on a mounting base.

[0020] In this way, under the rotation of the rotating shaft, the cleaning cylinder brush can continuously clean the surface of the object to be cleaned.

[0021] In some embodiments, the dust removal mechanism includes multiple groups of sub-dust removal mechanisms, each of which includes a mounting base, a cleaning member, and a dust collecting member; and each group of sub-dust removal mechanisms is arranged spaced apart from each other along a preset direction.

[0022] By providing multiple groups of sub-dust removal mechanisms, the cleaning range of the parts to be cleaned can be expanded, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0023] In some embodiments, each cleaning member of each group of sub-dust removal mechanisms rotates around the same rotation axis.

[0024] In this way, the same rotary drive mechanism can be used to drive the rotating shaft to rotate, simplifying the overall structure of the dust removal mechanism, and making the cleaning parts rotate synchronously, thereby improving the cleaning force and making the overall force of the dust removal mechanism uniform.

[0025] In some embodiments, the dust removal mechanism also includes a rotary drive mechanism and a belt transmission mechanism. The rotary drive mechanism and the belt transmission mechanism are both installed on a mounting seat, and the belt transmission mechanism is located between any two adjacent groups of sub-dust removal mechanisms. The belt transmission mechanism is connected to the rotating shaft and the rotary drive mechanism.

[0026] The use of a belt drive mechanism to drive the shaft to rotate is stable, making the cleaning process smoother. In addition, the belt drive mechanism occupies less space, making the overall structure of the dust removal mechanism more compact.

[0027] In a second aspect, a dust removal device is also provided, comprising the dust removal mechanism of any of the above embodiments.

[0028] When the dust removal device needs to remove dust from the part to be cleaned, the cleaning part of the dust removal mechanism can be rotated to clean the part to be cleaned, and the dust particles adhering to the cleaning part, or the dust particles raised by the cleaning part during cleaning, or the dust particles on the part to be cleaned can be sucked away from the dust suction port through the dust suction part on the periphery of the cleaning part, thereby achieving dust collection. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism of the embodiment of the present application not only automatically cleans the part to be cleaned through the cleaning part, but also absorbs dust particles through the dust suction part, which not only improves the cleaning efficiency and cleaning stability, but also has a better cleaning effect. In addition, the dust removal device is also suitable for the automated production of parts to be cleaned.

[0029] In some embodiments, the dust removal device further includes a motion mechanism, which is connected to the dust removal mechanism and is used to drive the dust removal mechanism to move.

[0030] By setting up a motion mechanism connected to the dust removal mechanism, the dust removal mechanism can be driven to move, and then the position of the dust removal mechanism relative to the part to be cleaned can be adjusted. On the one hand, it satisfies the cleaning of multiple cleaning positions of the part to be cleaned. On the other hand, the position of the dust removal mechanism can also be adjusted to adapt to the current cleaning position of the part to be cleaned.

[0031] In some embodiments, the motion mechanism includes a first motion mechanism, a second motion mechanism, and a third motion mechanism, the first motion mechanism is connected to the second motion mechanism, the first motion mechanism is used to drive the second motion mechanism to move along the first direction, the second motion mechanism is connected to the third motion mechanism, the second motion mechanism is used to drive the third motion mechanism to move along the second direction, the third motion mechanism is connected to the dust removal mechanism, and the third motion mechanism is used to drive the dust removal mechanism to move along the third direction;

[0032] The first direction, the second direction and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0033] By setting up a first moving mechanism, a second moving mechanism, a third moving mechanism, and a dust removal mechanism in sequence, the dust removal mechanism can be moved in three directions: the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction. Not only is the moving range expanded, but the moving direction is also more precise.

[0034] In some embodiments, the first moving mechanism, the second moving mechanism, and the third moving mechanism are all servo moving mechanisms.

[0035] By adopting a servo moving mechanism, the amount of movement during the movement process can be controlled more accurately, thereby achieving a precise cleaning effect.

[0036] In some embodiments, the dust removal equipment has a receiving position and a dust removal position. The dust removal equipment also includes a lifting mechanism, which is used to receive the parts to be cleaned at the receiving position and lift the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position. The dust removal mechanism is used to dust the parts to be cleaned at the dust removal position.

[0037] By setting up a lifting mechanism to receive the parts to be cleaned at the receiving position and lifting the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position so as to be close to the dust removal mechanism for dust removal, the process of transporting the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position can be simplified, and the parts to be cleaned can be separated from the receiving position as much as possible and independent from the external environment, thereby reducing the dust removal effect of other external environments on the dust removal mechanism, and thus improving the dust removal effect of the dust removal mechanism on the parts to be cleaned currently in the dust removal position.

[0038] In some embodiments, the lifting mechanism includes a lifting platform, an inclined guide seat and a lifting drive mechanism. The lifting platform is supported on the inclined guide seat and is used to carry the parts to be cleaned. The lifting drive mechanism is connected to the lifting platform and is used to drive the lifting platform to move up and down along the inclined guide seat.

[0039] By guiding the lifting platform to move up and down through the inclined guide seat, the receiving position and the dust removal position can be separated not only in the vertical direction but also in the horizontal direction. On the one hand, it reduces the impact of the jacking mechanism on the transportation of the cleaning parts on the conveyor line. On the other hand, it can save installation space in the vertical direction, making the overall structure of the dust removal equipment more compact and occupying less space.

[0040] In some embodiments, a roller is provided on a side of the lifting platform facing the inclined guide seat, and the roller is in contact with the inclined guide seat.

[0041] By arranging the lifting platform to contact the inclined guide seat through rollers, the lifting platform can be connected to the inclined guide seat in a rolling manner, thereby reducing the friction resistance of the lifting platform moving on the inclined guide seat, making it easier for the lifting platform to move up and down under the driving action of the jacking drive mechanism.

[0042] In a third aspect, a battery production system is provided, comprising the dust removal equipment in any of the above embodiments.

[0043] In the battery production system described above, when dust removal is required on the parts to be cleaned, the cleaning parts of the dust removal mechanism can be rotated to clean the parts to be cleaned, and the dust particles adhering to the cleaning parts, or the dust particles raised by the cleaning parts during cleaning, or the dust particles on the parts to be cleaned can be sucked away from the dust suction port through the dust collection parts on the periphery of the cleaning parts, thereby achieving dust collection. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism of the embodiment of the present application not only automatically cleans the parts to be cleaned through the cleaning parts, but also absorbs dust particles through the dust collection parts, which not only improves the cleaning efficiency and cleaning stability, but also has a better cleaning effect. In addition, it is also suitable for the automated production of parts to be cleaned.

[0044] In a fourth aspect, a dust removal method is further provided, using the dust removal device in any of the above embodiments, the dust removal method comprising:

[0045] Controlling the cleaning member of the dust removal mechanism to rotate around the axis, and controlling the dust collection member of the dust removal mechanism to start dust collection;

[0046] The parts to be cleaned are dusted by the dust removal mechanism.

[0047] In some embodiments, controlling the cleaning member of the dust removal mechanism to rotate about an axis, and controlling the dust collection member of the dust removal mechanism to start dust collection specifically includes:

[0048] Controlling the lifting mechanism to lift the object to be cleaned from the receiving position to the dust removal position;

[0049] Check whether the lifting mechanism is in place;

[0050] If the jacking is in place, the cleaning member of the dust removal mechanism is controlled to rotate around the axis, and the dust suction member of the dust removal mechanism is controlled to start dust suction.

[0051] In some embodiments, removing dust from the cleaning member by the dust removal mechanism specifically includes:

[0052] Controlling the motion mechanism to drive the dust removal mechanism to move to the dust removal position to remove dust from the object to be cleaned;

[0053] Control the dust removal mechanism to remove dust for a preset time at the current dust removal position;

[0054] Controlling the motion mechanism to drive the dust removal mechanism to move to the next dust removal position to remove dust from the cleaning object;

[0055] Return to step 1 and control the dust removal mechanism to remove dust at the current dust removal position for a preset time until dust removal is completed on the parts to be cleaned at all dust removal positions.

[0077] At present, the new energy vehicle industry is developing rapidly, and the demand for new energy vehicle battery modules has greatly increased, resulting in more and more demand for automated production of battery modules and higher and higher process requirements for battery module production.

[0078] A battery module is usually composed of multiple battery cells, which are connected in parallel or in series via a bus. Specifically, the bus needs to be connected to the positive or negative electrode of the battery cell.

[0079] In related technologies, laser welding is often used to connect the busbar to the positive or negative electrode of the battery cell. Laser welding is a welding method that uses a focused laser beam as energy to bombard the weldment to generate heat. During the welding process of the busbar and the positive or negative electrode of the battery cell, welding slag is prone to splashing, causing some dust particles to adhere to the surface of the busbar. If not removed in time, the dust particles will flow out with the battery module. If they randomly fall into the battery module, the protective layer inside the battery module will fail, causing an internal short circuit in the battery module, etc., and therefore, it will have a certain impact on the performance of the battery module.

[0080] To reduce dust particles adhering to the busbar surface during laser welding, after welding, manual air blowing is used to remove dust from the busbar, or brushes are used to clean each busbar on the battery module. This method is not only time-consuming and labor-intensive, but also has low cleaning efficiency and poor cleaning stability, making it difficult to ensure effective cleaning results. Furthermore, it is not suitable for automated battery module production.

[0081] Based on the above considerations, the present invention provides a dust removal mechanism comprising a mounting base, a cleaning member, and at least two dust collecting members. The cleaning member is rotatably mounted on the mounting base about an axis, and the at least two dust collecting members are disposed on the mounting base and positioned on the periphery of the cleaning member, and on opposite sides of the cleaning member in a direction intersecting the axis. The dust collecting members have dust collection ports that are separate from the cleaning members.

[0082] In this way, when it is necessary to remove dust from the surface of the busbar of the battery module, the cleaning member of the dust removal mechanism can be rotated to clean the surface of the busbar, and the dust particles adhering to the cleaning member, or the dust particles raised by the cleaning member during cleaning, or the dust particles on the battery module can be sucked away from the dust suction port through the dust suction member on the periphery of the cleaning member, thereby achieving dust collection. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism of the embodiment of the present application cleans the surface of the busbar through the rotating cleaning member, and absorbs the dust particles through the dust suction member. In addition, the dust suction member is arranged on the periphery of the cleaning member, and the dust suction port is also separated from the cleaning member, which can help reduce the area of ​​the dust suction port and make the dust suction port have a stronger suction force. At least two dust suction members are located on opposite sides of the cleaning member in a direction intersecting with the axis, which can improve the suction efficiency within a limited space, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency as a whole, and having good cleaning stability and good cleaning effect. In addition, the dust removal mechanism of the embodiment of the present application is also suitable for the automated production of battery modules.

[0083] Figure 1 is a structural schematic diagram of a dust removal mechanism according to one or more embodiments, and Figure 2 is a structural schematic diagram of a partial structure of the dust removal mechanism shown in Figure 1. Referring to Figures 1 and 2, an embodiment of the present application provides a dust removal mechanism 100. The dust removal mechanism 100 includes a mounting seat 10, a cleaning member 20, and at least two dust collecting members 30. The cleaning member 20 is rotatably arranged on the mounting seat 10 around an axis. At least two dust collecting members 30 are arranged on the mounting seat 10 and are located on the outer periphery of the cleaning member 20, and are located on opposite sides of the cleaning member 20 along a direction intersecting the axis. The dust collecting member 30 has a dust suction port 31, and the dust suction port 31 is separated from the cleaning member 20.

[0084] In an embodiment of the present application, the dust removal mechanism 100 is used to remove dust from the parts to be cleaned. Specifically, in one embodiment of the present application, the dust removal mechanism 100 can remove dust from the battery module. The dust removal process of the battery module by the dust removal mechanism 100 can be performed after the bus of the battery module is laser welded to the positive or negative electrode of the battery cell. In other embodiments, the dust removal mechanism 100 can also remove dust from other parts to be cleaned.

[0085] The mounting base 10 is a base structure that can provide mounting conditions for other components. The mounting base 10 itself can also be mounted on an external mechanism so that the cleaning member 20 and the dust collecting member 30 can be installed together with the mounting base 10. The mounting base 10 can be a whole structure or formed by splicing multiple components.

[0086] The cleaning member 20 refers to a member that can contact the surface of the member to be cleaned to clean the member to be cleaned. Specifically, the cleaning member 20 can be a brush, a cleaning cloth, an adhesive member, etc.

[0087] When the cleaning member 20 rotates relative to the mounting base 10 , relative movement can be generated between the cleaning member 20 and the surface of the object to be cleaned, thereby better removing dust particles on the object to be cleaned and achieving a better cleaning effect.

[0088] The dust collecting member 30 is a member that can absorb dust particles through suction force to achieve dust removal effect. The dust collecting member 30 may include a dust collecting pipe, a dust collecting head shell, etc.

[0089] The dust collecting member 30 is disposed on the outer periphery of the cleaning member 20 , and may be disposed around a portion of the outer periphery of the cleaning member 20 , or may be disposed in an annular shape around the entire outer periphery of the cleaning member 20 .

[0090] Under the action of suction force, the dust particles on and around the cleaning object will be drawn away from the suction port 31. The suction port 31 is separated from the cleaning member 20, which means that a certain distance is maintained between the suction port 31 and the cleaning member 20 so that the two maintain an independent positional relationship.

[0091] At least two dust collecting members 30 are located on opposite sides of the cleaning member 20 along a direction intersecting the axis. All dust collecting members 30 may be located on opposite sides of the cleaning member 20 , or some dust collecting members 30 may be located on opposite sides of the cleaning member 20 .

[0092] The at least two dust collecting members 30 can be evenly arranged on opposite sides of the cleaning member 20. For example, a dust collecting member 30 can be provided on one side of the cleaning member 20 and another on the opposite side. This allows for an even distribution of suction airflow around the cleaning member 20, thereby improving suction efficiency. Of course, the at least two dust collecting members 30 can also be unevenly arranged on opposite sides of the cleaning member 20.

[0093] Therefore, when dust removal is required for the object to be cleaned, the cleaning member 20 of the dust removal mechanism 100 can be rotated to clean the object to be cleaned, and the dust particles adhering to the cleaning member 20, or the dust particles raised by the cleaning member 20 when cleaning, or the dust particles on the object to be cleaned can be sucked away from the dust suction port 31 by the dust suction member 30 on the periphery of the cleaning member 20, thereby achieving dust removal. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the present application cleans the object to be cleaned by the rotating cleaning member 20 and absorbs the dust particles through the dust suction member 30. In addition, the dust suction member 30 is arranged on the periphery of the cleaning member 20, and the dust suction port 31 is also separated from the cleaning member 20, which can help reduce the area of ​​the dust suction port 31 and make the dust suction port 31 have a stronger suction force. At least two dust suction members 30 are located on opposite sides of the cleaning member 20 along a direction intersecting the axis, which can improve the suction efficiency within a limited space, thereby improving the overall cleaning efficiency, and the cleaning stability and cleaning effect are good. In addition, the dust removal mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the present application is also suitable for the automated production of parts to be cleaned.

[0094] 3 , according to some embodiments of the present application, the mounting base 10 includes a mounting base 11, a first mounting side plate 12, and a second mounting side plate 13. The first mounting side plate 12 and the second mounting side plate 13 are located on the same side of the mounting base 11 and are disposed opposite each other. The mounting base 11, the first mounting side plate 12, and the second mounting side plate 13 enclose a receiving cavity 14 having an opening on one side. The cleaning member 20 is mounted within the receiving cavity 14, with at least a portion of the cleaning member 20 protruding from the opening. A dust collecting member 30 is mounted on the mounting base 11.

[0095] Furthermore, the dust removal mechanism 100 further includes a rotating shaft 40 , and the cleaning member 20 is mounted on the rotating shaft 40 . Both ends of the rotating shaft 40 are rotatably connected to the first mounting side plate 12 and the second mounting side plate 13 , respectively.

[0096] According to some embodiments of the present application, the cleaning members 20 include a plurality of cleaning members 20 , all of which rotate around the same rotating shaft 40 and are spaced apart from each other along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 40 .

[0097] By arranging a plurality of cleaning members 20 to rotate around the same rotating shaft 40 , the cleaning area can be increased, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0098] According to some embodiments of the present application, the cleaning member 20 includes a cleaning cylindrical brush, which is rotatably disposed on the mounting base 10 .

[0099] In this way, under the rotation of the rotating shaft 40 , the cleaning cylinder brush can continuously clean the surface of the object to be cleaned.

[0100] Specifically, the cleaning brush is fixed on the rotating shaft 40. When the cleaning member 20 includes a plurality of cleaning members 20, all cleaning members 20 are cleaning brushes and are fixed on the same rotating shaft 40.

[0101] According to some embodiments of the present application, the dust removal mechanism 100 further includes a rotating shaft 40 , and the cleaning member 20 is rotatably disposed on the mounting seat 10 via the rotating shaft 40 . In a direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft 40 , the dust collecting member 30 is located on one side of the cleaning member 20 .

[0102] Specifically, the rotating shaft 40 of the embodiment of the present application is parallel to the X direction shown in Figure 1, and the direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft 40 can be the Y direction or the Z direction. However, it should be noted that in order not to affect the cleaning of the cleaning member 20 by the cleaning member 20, the dust collecting member 30 should be arranged in a necessary avoidance position. In the embodiment of the present application, the cleaning member 20 cleans the cleaning member 20 from the lower side along the Z direction. Therefore, the dust collecting member 30 is located to one side of the cleaning member 20 along the Y direction.

[0103] Since the dust particles to be cleaned will undergo centrifugal motion under the rotation of the cleaning member 20 or be thrown away from the object to be cleaned by the cleaning member 20 during the rotation of the cleaning member 20 around the rotating shaft 40, the dust collecting member 30 is arranged on one side of the cleaning member 20 in a direction perpendicular to the rotating shaft 40, which can adapt to the movement direction of the dust particles, thereby sucking more dust particles and improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0104] Furthermore, the dust suction port 31 extends in a direction parallel to the rotation shaft 40 .

[0105] In this way, the distribution positions of the dust particles to be cleaned by the cleaning member 20 can be covered as comprehensively as possible, thereby further improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0106] Specifically, the dust suction port 31 is in an elongated strip shape and extends in a direction parallel to the rotation shaft 40 .

[0107] In the embodiment of the present application, in order to increase the suction force of the dust suction port 31 , the cross-sectional area of ​​the dust suction channel in the dust suction member 30 connected to the dust suction port 31 gradually increases from the direction away from the dust suction port 31 .

[0108] 4 , in an embodiment of the present application, the end of the dust suction member 30 away from the dust suction port 31 further has a connection port connected to the dust suction channel, and the connection port is connected to the negative pressure source through the dust suction pipe 50 .

[0109] Specifically, the connection port of the dust collecting member 30 can be connected to the mounting base 10, specifically to the mounting base 11. The mounting base 10 can have a through hole to connect the connection port with the dust collecting duct 50. The number of through holes can be multiple, and the multiple through holes are respectively connected to multiple dust collecting ducts 50. In this way, a stronger suction force can be provided to the dust collecting channel of the dust collecting member 30, thereby improving the cleaning effect.

[0110] 1 and 2 , according to some embodiments of the present application, the dust removal mechanism 100 includes multiple sub-dust removal mechanisms 60, each of which includes a mounting base 10, a cleaning member 20, and a dust collecting member 30. The sub-dust removal mechanisms 60 are spaced apart from each other along a predetermined direction.

[0111] By providing a plurality of sub-dust removal mechanisms 60 , the cleaning range of the object to be cleaned can be expanded, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency.

[0112] In some embodiments, the groups of sub-dust removal mechanisms 60 are spaced apart from each other along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 40 .

[0113] In some embodiments, each cleaning member 20 of each group of sub-dust removal mechanisms 60 can rotate around the same rotation axis 40 .

[0114] In other words, the rotating shafts 40 of each group of sub-dust removal mechanisms 60 are connected together. In this way, the rotating shafts 40 can be driven to rotate by the same rotation drive mechanism 70, which simplifies the overall structure of the dust removal mechanism 100 and enables the cleaning members 20 to rotate synchronously, thereby increasing the cleaning power and making the dust removal mechanism 100 evenly stressed.

[0115] In an embodiment of the present application, the dust removal mechanism 100 also includes a rotation drive mechanism 70 and a belt transmission mechanism 80. Both the belt transmission mechanism 80 and the rotation drive mechanism 70 can be installed on the mounting seat 10, and the belt transmission mechanism 80 is transmission-connected between the rotating shaft 40 and the rotation drive mechanism 70.

[0116] The belt transmission mechanism 80 is used to drive the rotating shaft 40 to rotate smoothly, making the cleaning process smoother. In addition, the belt transmission mechanism 80 occupies less space, making the overall structure of the dust removal mechanism 100 more compact.

[0117] Specifically, the belt drive mechanism 80 is located between two adjacent groups of sub-dust removal mechanisms 60. Specifically, it can be mounted on the outside of the mounting base 10 of one sub-dust removal mechanism 60, such as on the first mounting side plate 12 or the second mounting side plate 13, facing the other sub-dust removal mechanism 60. The rotation drive mechanism 70 is mounted on the inside of the mounting base 10, penetrating the mounting base 10 and connected to the outer belt drive mechanism 80. By placing the belt drive mechanism 80 between two adjacent groups of sub-dust removal mechanisms 60, the axial force on the rotating shaft 40 is evenly distributed, improving the reliability of the rotating shaft 40's rotation.

[0118] Please refer to Figures 5 and 6. In addition, an embodiment of the present application further provides a dust removal device 200, which includes the dust removal mechanism 100 in any of the above embodiments.

[0119] When dust removal is required for the part to be cleaned, the cleaning member 20 of the dust removal mechanism 100 can be rotated to clean the part to be cleaned, and the dust particles adhering to the cleaning member 20, or the dust particles raised by the cleaning member 20 during cleaning, or the dust particles on the part to be cleaned can be sucked away from the dust suction port 31 through the dust suction member 30 on the periphery of the cleaning member 20, thereby achieving dust collection. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the present application not only automatically cleans the part to be cleaned through the cleaning member 20, but also absorbs dust particles through the dust suction member 30, thereby improving the cleaning efficiency and cleaning stability, and achieving a better cleaning effect. In addition, the dust removal equipment of the embodiment of the present application is also suitable for the automated production of parts to be cleaned.

[0120] According to some embodiments of the present application, the dust removal device 200 further includes a motion mechanism 210 , which is connected to the dust removal mechanism 100 and is used to drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to move.

[0121] The motion mechanism 210 is a mechanism that can drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to move in a preset direction. The motion mechanism 210 can drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to move in a single direction or a combination of multiple directions.

[0122] By setting up a motion mechanism 210 connected to the dust removal mechanism 100, the dust removal mechanism 100 can be driven to move, and then the position of the dust removal mechanism 100 relative to the part to be cleaned can be adjusted. On the one hand, it satisfies the cleaning of multiple cleaning positions of the part to be cleaned. On the other hand, the position of the dust removal mechanism 100 can also be adjusted to adapt to the current cleaning position of the part to be cleaned.

[0123] Specifically, the motion mechanism 210 includes a first motion mechanism 211, a second motion mechanism 212, and a third motion mechanism 213. The first motion mechanism 211 is connected to the second motion mechanism 212 and is used to drive the second motion mechanism 212 to move in a first direction. The second motion mechanism 212 is connected to the third motion mechanism 213 and is used to drive the third motion mechanism 213 to move in a second direction. The third motion mechanism 213 is connected to the dust removal mechanism 100 and is used to drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to move in a third direction. The first direction, the second direction, and the third direction are perpendicular to each other.

[0124] Specifically, the first direction is the X direction shown in FIG. 5 , the second direction is the Y direction shown in FIG. 5 , and the third direction is the Z direction shown in FIG. 5 .

[0125] By setting the first moving mechanism 211, the second moving mechanism 212, the third moving mechanism 213, and the dust removal mechanism 100 in sequence, the dust removal mechanism 100 can be moved in three directions: the first direction, the second direction, and the third direction. Not only is the moving range expanded, but the moving direction is also more precise.

[0126] Specifically, the first moving mechanism 211 includes a first sliding guide rail 2111 extending along a first direction, and the second moving mechanism 212 is slidably engaged with the first sliding guide rail 2111 .

[0127] In some embodiments, the first sliding guide rail 2111 may include a plurality of first sliding guide rails 2111 , all of which are spaced apart from each other along the second direction, and the second moving mechanism 212 is in sliding engagement with all of the first sliding guide rails 2111 .

[0128] The second sliding mechanism 212 includes a second sliding guide rail 2121 extending along the second direction, and the third moving mechanism 213 is slidably engaged with the second sliding guide rail 2121 .

[0129] In some embodiments, the second sliding guide rail 2121 includes a plurality of second sliding guide rails 2121 , all of the second sliding guide rails 2121 are spaced apart from each other along the third direction, and the third moving mechanism 213 is in sliding cooperation with all of the second sliding guide rails 2121 .

[0130] The third sliding mechanism 213 includes a third sliding guide rail 2131 extending along a third direction, and the dust removal mechanism 100 is slidably engaged with the third sliding guide rail 2131 .

[0131] In some embodiments, the third sliding guide rail 2131 includes a plurality of third sliding guide rails 2131 , all of which are spaced apart from each other along the second direction, and the dust removal mechanism 100 is slidably engaged with all of the third sliding guide rails 2131 .

[0132] The above-mentioned manner of arranging the sliding guide rails can improve the movement stability of the dust removal mechanism 100 in all directions, thereby enabling the dust removal mechanism 100 to reliably remove dust from the cleaning object.

[0133] According to some embodiments of the present application, the first moving mechanism 211 , the second moving mechanism 212 , and the third moving mechanism 213 are all servo moving mechanisms.

[0134] By adopting a servo moving mechanism, the amount of movement during the movement process can be controlled more accurately, thereby achieving a precise cleaning effect.

[0135] In the embodiment of the present application, the motion mechanism 210 may be a three-axis gantry servo drive mechanism.

[0136] Please refer to Figures 6 to 8. According to some embodiments of the present application, the dust removal equipment 200 has a receiving position and a dust removal position. The dust removal equipment 200 also includes a lifting mechanism 220. The lifting mechanism 220 is used to receive the parts to be cleaned at the receiving position and lift the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position. The dust removal mechanism 100 is used to remove dust from the parts to be cleaned at the dust removal position.

[0137] The lifting mechanism 220 is used to lift the piece to be cleaned so that the piece to be cleaned can be close to the dust removal mechanism 100 and then be dusted by the dust removal mechanism 100. Specifically, the lifting mechanism 220 can receive the piece to be cleaned on the conveying line of the piece to be cleaned.

[0138] By setting up a lifting mechanism 220 to receive the parts to be cleaned at the receiving position and lifting the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position so as to be close to the dust removal mechanism 100 for dust removal, the process of transporting the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position can be simplified, and the parts to be cleaned can be separated from the receiving position as much as possible and independent from the external environment, thereby reducing the impact of other external environments on the dust removal of the dust removal mechanism 100, and thus improving the dust removal effect of the parts to be cleaned currently in the dust removal position by the dust removal mechanism 100.

[0139] Specifically, the dust removal equipment 200 further includes a support frame 230 , the dust removal mechanism 100 is disposed on the support frame 230 , and the lifting mechanism 220 is located below the support frame 230 in the vertical direction.

[0140] According to some embodiments of the present application, the lifting mechanism 220 includes a lifting platform 221, an inclined guide seat 222 and a lifting drive mechanism 223. The lifting platform 221 is supported on the inclined guide seat 222 and is used to carry the parts to be cleaned. The lifting drive mechanism 223 is connected to the lifting platform 221 and is used to drive the lifting platform 221 to move up and down along the inclined guide seat 222.

[0141] The lifting platform 221 is a main structure that performs lifting motion and can support the object to be cleaned to drive the object to be cleaned to perform lifting motion.

[0142] The lifting platform 221 may have a support surface 2211 for supporting the object to be cleaned. When the lifting platform 221 supports the object to be cleaned to the dust removal position, the dust removal mechanism 100 can remove dust from the object to be cleaned on the support surface 2211. Therefore, the lifting platform 221 can also serve as a surface for fixing the object to be cleaned.

[0143] The inclined guide seat 222 has an inclined surface 2221, which is tilted relative to both the vertical and horizontal directions, guiding the lifting platform 221 thereon in its lifting and lowering motion. Specifically, the surface of the inclined guide seat 222 that contacts the lifting platform 221 includes the inclined surface 2221. The inclined guide seat 222 also supports the lifting platform 221, ensuring reliable movement of the lifting platform 221 thereon.

[0144] Lifting drive mechanism 223 is the power source of lifting mechanism 220, providing power for the lifting platform 221 to move along the inclined guide seat 222. As will be appreciated, the power output of lifting drive mechanism 223 is connected to the lifting platform 221. Lifting drive mechanism 223 is a linear actuator, which includes but is not limited to electric pneumatic cylinders, electric hydraulic cylinders, rack and pinion drives, ball screw drives, and the like, and is not specifically limited here.

[0145] By guiding the lifting platform 221 to move up and down through the inclined guide seat 222, the receiving position and the dust removal position can be separated not only in the vertical direction but also in the horizontal direction. On the one hand, the influence of the lifting mechanism 220 on the transportation of the cleaning parts on the conveyor line is reduced. On the other hand, the installation space in the vertical direction can be saved, so that the overall structure of the dust removal equipment 200 is more compact and occupies less space.

[0146] Specifically, the dust removal equipment 200 further includes a conveying mechanism 240 , which is used to convey the objects to be cleaned, and the lifting mechanism 220 is used to receive the objects to be cleaned from the conveying mechanism 240 at a receiving position.

[0147] The conveying mechanism 240 may include a plurality of conveying rollers 241 sequentially arranged along a conveying direction, and the object to be cleaned is conveyed by the rotation of the conveying rollers 241. In other embodiments, the conveying mechanism 240 may also include a conveyor belt or the like.

[0148] According to some embodiments of the present application, a roller 2212 is provided on one side of the lifting platform 221 facing the inclined guide seat 222 , and the roller 2212 is in contact with the inclined guide seat 222 .

[0149] The roller 2212 can roll relative to the inclined guide seat 222 when the lifting platform 221 is lifted and lowered along the inclined guide seat 222. The lifting platform 221 can include a plurality of rollers 2212, and the plurality of rollers 2212 can be evenly distributed on the lifting platform 221.

[0150] By setting the lifting platform 221 to contact the inclined guide seat 222 through the roller 2212, the lifting platform 221 can be connected to the inclined guide seat 222 in a rolling manner, thereby reducing the friction resistance of the lifting platform 221 moving on the inclined guide seat 222, making it easier for the lifting platform 221 to move up and down under the driving action of the jacking drive mechanism 223.

[0151] In other embodiments, the lifting platform 221 and the inclined guide seat 222 may also be slidably connected.

[0152] The rollers 2212 are provided to reduce the frictional resistance of the lifting platform 221 as it moves on the inclined guide seat 222. When the lifting platform 221 is stopped at the receiving position and the lifting position, if it is still on the inclined surface 2221 of the inclined guide seat 222, it needs to rely on the lifting drive mechanism 223 to provide a force to maintain the current position. This not only causes certain damage to the lifting drive mechanism 223, but also is not conducive to the stable support of the lifting platform 221 for the cleaning object in the current position. Therefore, in an embodiment of the present application, the inclined guide seat 222 further includes a first plane 2222 and a second plane 2223, respectively connected to opposite sides of the inclined surface 2221. When the lifting platform 221 moves to the first plane 2222, the lifting platform 221 can receive the cleaning object at the receiving position. When the lifting platform 221 moves to the second plane 2223, the lifting platform 221 can lift the cleaning object to the dust removal position.

[0153] Specifically, the first plane 2222 and the second plane 2223 are both arranged parallel to the horizontal plane.

[0154] In some embodiments, in order to keep the position of the piece to be cleaned fixed during the lifting process of the lifting mechanism 220 and the subsequent dust removal process, a positioning member is provided on the lifting platform 221, which can cooperate with the piece to be cleaned or the carrier that carries the piece to be cleaned to position the piece to be cleaned.

[0155] Specifically, the positioning member can be a positioning pin, and the object to be cleaned or the carrier carrying the object to be cleaned is provided with a positioning pin hole, and the positioning pin can cooperate with the positioning pin hole to achieve positioning of the object to be cleaned. In other embodiments, the positioning member can also be a plurality of positioning blocks arranged around the periphery of the object to be cleaned or the carrier carrying the object to be cleaned.

[0156] In an embodiment of the present application, after the dust removal mechanism 100 completes dust removal on the workpiece to be cleaned on the lifting mechanism 220, the lifting mechanism 220 is used to lower the dust-removed workpiece to be cleaned from the dust removal position to the receiving position, so that the conveying mechanism 240 can continue to convey the dust-removed workpiece to be cleaned for subsequent processes.

[0157] Please refer to FIG9 . In addition, an embodiment of the present application further provides a dust removal method, which uses the dust removal device 200 in any of the above embodiments. The dust removal method includes the following steps:

[0158] S100: Controlling the cleaning member 20 of the dust removal mechanism 100 to rotate around the axis, and controlling the dust collection member 30 of the dust removal mechanism 100 to start dust collection;

[0159] S200: The dust removal mechanism 100 is used to remove dust from the object to be cleaned.

[0160] When dust removal is required on the part to be cleaned, the cleaning member 20 of the dust removal mechanism 100 can be rotated to clean the part to be cleaned. Dust particles adhering to the cleaning member 20, dust particles raised by the cleaning member 20 during cleaning, or dust particles on the part to be cleaned can be sucked away from the dust suction port 31 by the dust collection member 30 on the periphery of the cleaning member 20, thereby achieving dust collection. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the present application not only automatically cleans the part to be cleaned through the cleaning member 20, but also absorbs dust particles through the dust collection member 30, thereby improving cleaning efficiency and cleaning stability and achieving a better cleaning effect. Furthermore, it is also suitable for the automated production of parts to be cleaned.

[0161] Referring to FIG. 10 , step S100 further specifically includes:

[0162] S20: Control the lifting mechanism 220 to lift the object to be cleaned from the receiving position to the dust removal position;

[0163] S40: Check whether the lifting mechanism 220 is lifted into place;

[0164] S60: If the jacking is in place, the cleaning member 20 of the dust removal mechanism 100 is controlled to rotate around the axis, and the dust collection member 30 of the dust removal mechanism 100 is controlled to start dust collection.

[0165] By setting up a lifting mechanism 220 to receive the parts to be cleaned at the receiving position and lifting the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position so as to be close to the dust removal mechanism 100 for dust removal, the process of transporting the parts to be cleaned to the dust removal position can be simplified, and the parts to be cleaned can be separated from the receiving position as much as possible and independent from the external environment, thereby reducing the impact of other external environments on the dust removal of the dust removal mechanism 100, and thus improving the dust removal effect of the parts to be cleaned currently in the dust removal position by the dust removal mechanism 100.

[0166] According to some embodiments of the present application, step S200 specifically includes:

[0167] S120: Controlling the motion mechanism 210 to drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to move to the dust removal position to remove dust from the object to be cleaned;

[0168] S140: Controlling the dust removal mechanism 100 to remove dust at the current dust removal position for a preset time period;

[0169] S160: Control the motion mechanism 210 to drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to move to the next dust removal position to remove dust from the cleaning object;

[0170] S180: Return to step S120 until dust removal is completed on all the parts to be cleaned at all dust removal positions.

[0171] Since the area of ​​the part to be cleaned that requires dust removal may be large, having the dust removal mechanism 100 perform dust removal at the same dust removal position cannot meet the needs of comprehensive dust removal. By controlling the motion mechanism 210 to drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to move to each dust removal position in turn for dust removal, the dust removal effect can be improved.

[0172] Furthermore, after step S180, the following steps are further included:

[0173] The motion mechanism 210 is controlled to drive the dust removal mechanism 100 to return to a preset initial position.

[0174] By setting the movement mechanism 210 to return to the preset initial position, it is convenient to remove dust from another part to be cleaned next time.

[0175] In order to understand the dust removal method of the embodiment of the present application in more detail, the dust removal method of a specific embodiment is described below:

[0176] The part to be cleaned is a battery module, and the module carrier carrying the battery module is transported to the dust removal device 200 by the conveying mechanism 240;

[0177] The lifting mechanism 220 receives the module carrier at the receiving position and lifts it with the bottom support of the module carrier as the reference. During the lifting process, the positioning pins on the lifting platform 221 are inserted into the positioning pin holes of the module carrier.

[0178] After the lifting mechanism 220 lifts the module carrier to the dust removal position, the dust removal device 200 detects whether the lifting mechanism 220 is lifted into place. If it is lifted into place, the cleaning element 20 of the dust removal mechanism 100 is controlled to rotate and the dust collection element 30 starts suctioning.

[0179] The three-axis gantry servo drive mechanism drives the dust removal mechanism 100 to move horizontally from the origin position to just above the dust removal position. The current dust removal position is the dust removal starting position.

[0180] The three-axis gantry servo drive mechanism drives the dust removal mechanism 100 to descend vertically to the dust removal starting position to remove dust from the battery module;

[0181] After the dust removal mechanism 100 stays at the current dust removal position for a few seconds, the three-axis gantry servo drive mechanism drives the dust removal mechanism 100 to move to the next dust removal position along the length direction of the battery module to remove dust from another area of ​​the battery module to be removed;

[0182] Repeat step 6 until all the dust removal areas above the battery module are dusted. The three-axis gantry servo drive mechanism drives the dust removal mechanism 100 to rise vertically to the top of the battery module and return to the original position.

[0183] The lifting mechanism 220 descends to the receiving position. During the descent, the positioning pins on the lifting platform 221 disengage from the positioning pin holes of the module carrier.

[0184] The conveying mechanism 240 conveys the module carrier carrying the battery module after dust removal out of the dust removal equipment 200 .

[0185] In addition, an embodiment of the present application further provides a battery production system, comprising the dust removal equipment 200 in any of the above embodiments.

[0186] When dust removal is required on the part to be cleaned, the cleaning member 20 of the dust removal mechanism 100 can be rotated to clean the part to be cleaned. Dust particles adhering to the cleaning member 20, dust particles raised by the cleaning member 20 during cleaning, or dust particles on the part to be cleaned can be sucked away from the dust suction port 31 by the dust collection member 30 on the periphery of the cleaning member 20, thereby achieving dust collection. Therefore, the dust removal mechanism 100 of the embodiment of the present application not only automatically cleans the part to be cleaned through the cleaning member 20, but also absorbs dust particles through the dust collection member 30, thereby improving cleaning efficiency and cleaning stability and achieving a better cleaning effect. Furthermore, it is also suitable for the automated production of parts to be cleaned.

[0187] Specifically, the battery production system further includes a welding device, which is located upstream of the dust removal device 200 along the conveying direction of the workpiece to be cleaned, and is used to weld the workpiece to be welded to form the workpiece to be cleaned.

[0188] Specifically, the battery production system also includes equipment for assembling parts to be welded, which is used to assemble parts to be welded.

[0189] Specifically in the embodiment of the present application, the parts to be welded include components assembled from multiple battery cells and bus bars, the multiple battery cells and bus bars are assembled in an assembly device, the welding equipment is used to weld the assembled multiple battery cells and bus bars, and the dust removal equipment 200 is used to remove dust from the welded multiple battery cells and bus bars.
