[0001] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the China Patent Office on February 18, 2024, with application number 202410179351.7 and application name “Module pressurized static line and its scheduling method”, all contents of which are incorporated by reference in this application. Technical Field

[0002] The present application relates to the technical field of battery module pressurization and static placement, and in particular to a module pressurization and static placement line and a scheduling method thereof. Background Art

[0003] Power batteries are not only used in energy storage systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power, and solar power plants, but are also widely used in electric vehicles such as electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, and electric vehicles, as well as in a variety of fields such as aerospace. As the application of power batteries continues to expand, market demand is also increasing. Factories often need to add parallel battery pack production lines to increase power battery output. However, the increase in parallel production lines also leads to increased demand for factory space. Technical Solutions

[0004] The main purpose of this application is to propose a module pressurized static line and its scheduling method, aiming to improve the situation where the existing power battery production line has large corresponding space requirements.

[0005] In a first aspect, the present application provides a module pressurizing and static standing line having multiple pressurizing stations, wherein the module pressurizing and static standing line is used to transport a battery module having a heat sink bonded to the bottom thereof to a pressurizing station for pressurization and then for static standing, and the module pressurizing and static standing line comprises:

[0006] A plurality of pressurizing lines pass through the plurality of pressurizing stations respectively to deliver battery modules to corresponding pressurizing stations, and each pressurizing line has a pressurizing output end;

[0007] A static line body having a static input end, wherein the static line body is used for allowing the pressurized battery module to rest; and

[0008] The stationary transfer device includes a first rotating table and a second rotating table, wherein the first rotating table is arranged between the pressurized output end of one of the pressurized line bodies and the stationary input end of the stationary line body, and the first rotating table can transmit conduction to the stationary input end in its rotational circumferential direction, and the second rotating table is arranged between the pressurized output end of the other pressurized line body and the first rotating table, wherein the first rotating table and the second rotating table each have a first position and a second position in their respective rotational circumferential directions, when in the first position, the first rotating table and the second rotating table can respectively transmit conduction to the corresponding pressurized output end, and when in the second position, the first rotating table can transmit conduction to the second rotating table with each other.

[0009] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, multiple pressurized lines can respectively transport battery modules with heat dissipation plates bonded to the bottom to multiple pressurizing stations, thereby ensuring the processing efficiency of the battery modules. After the battery modules and the heat dissipation plates are pressurized and maintained at the pressurizing station, if the pressurized line at the pressurizing station corresponds to the first rotary table, the first rotary table can be directly controlled to rotate to receive the battery module first, and then rotated to be connected with the static line to transfer the battery module to the static line. If the pressurized line at the pressurizing station corresponds to the second rotary table, the corresponding second rotary table can be first controlled to rotate to receive the corresponding battery module, and then the first rotary table and the second rotary table can be controlled to both rotate to receive the corresponding battery module. The first rotating platform is controlled to rotate to the second position to transfer the corresponding battery module to the first rotating platform, and finally the first rotating platform is controlled to rotate to be connected with the static line body. With this arrangement, the pressurized battery modules on multiple pressurized line bodies can be transferred to the static line body in succession under the coordinated transmission action of the first rotating platform and the second rotating platform. There is no need to set up a static line body for each pressurized line body separately, so that the single static line body is fully utilized, thereby reducing the space occupied by the module pressurized static line body, that is, reducing the space occupied by the battery pack production line. At the same time, the structural arrangement of this static transfer device is relatively regular, the structure is relatively simple, and the space occupied is small.

[0010] In some embodiments, when in the first position, the first rotary table transmits conduction to the static input terminal.

[0011] Through the above technical solution, the first rotating table is set to be connected to the static input end in the first position, so that the battery module received from the pressurized line body can be directly transferred to the static line body, eliminating the process of rotating and aligning the first rotating table and the static line body, thereby improving the transfer efficiency.

[0012] In some embodiments, the module pressurized static line body further includes an output line body, and the output line body includes an output upper line end;

[0013] The static line body also has a static output end;

[0014] The second rotating table is disposed between the stationary output end and the output upper line end. The second rotating table can transmit conduction to the stationary output end and the output upper line end in its rotational circumferential direction.

[0015] Through the above technical solution, one of the second turntables is used as the output turntable of the static line body, so that the battery module that has been static can be transferred to the output line body. On the one hand, the utilization efficiency of the second turntable is improved, and on the other hand, the space occupied by the module pressurized static line body is reduced, and the assembly cost is also reduced.

[0016] In some embodiments, when in the first position, the second rotary table further transmits conduction to the static input terminal; and / or, when in the second position, the second rotary table further transmits conduction to the output upper line terminal.

[0017] Through the above technical solution, whether the second rotary table is set to be in transmission and conduction with the stationary line body when in the first position, or the second rotary table is set to be in transmission and conduction with the output line body when in the second position, the number of working position states of the second rotary table can be reduced, which facilitates its control and ensures the positioning accuracy of the second rotary table.

[0018] In some embodiments, the static line body includes:

[0019] Two first static sections are arranged side by side, the static input end and the static output end are respectively formed at one end of the two first static sections, and the other ends of the two first static sections are set as transition ends;

[0020] Two transition turntables are respectively provided corresponding to the two transition ends; and

[0021] A second static section is provided between the two transition turntables;

[0022] During the rotational travel of the transition turntable, the second stationary section can transmit and conduct to the corresponding transition end.

[0023] Through the above technical solution, the two first static sections of the static line are arranged side by side to form a rotating transmission path, thereby greatly reducing the space occupied by the static line, and the second static section is matched with the two transition turntables to ensure the efficient transfer of battery modules on the two first static sections.

[0024] In some embodiments, the module pressurized static line also includes a defective transport line, and the defective transport line has a defective receiving end; one of the transition turntables can also transmit conduction to the defective receiving end in its rotation circumferential direction.

[0025] Through the above technical solution, unqualified battery modules can be screened out of the static line through the corresponding transition turntable and returned to the defective transfer line, preventing good battery modules and defective battery modules from mixing and affecting production.

[0026] In some embodiments, the pressurized line has a pressurized input end;

[0027] The module pressurized static line also includes:

[0028] An input line body having an input lower line end, wherein the input line body is used to transport a battery module with a heat sink bonded to the bottom; and

[0029] The pressurized transfer device includes at least one pressurized transfer platform, and the at least one pressurized transfer platform can select one of the multiple pressurized input terminals to be connected to the input downstream terminal.

[0030] Through the above technical solution, a single input line is used to successively convey battery modules to multiple pressurized lines through a pressurized turntable, so that the input line is fully utilized, thereby ensuring the online efficiency of the battery modules. At the same time, it also reduces the space occupied by the module pressurized static line, that is, reduces the space occupied by the battery pack production line.

[0031] In some embodiments, the pressurized transfer device includes a plurality of pressurized transfer platforms, and the plurality of pressurized transfer platforms include:

[0032] A third rotating platform is provided between the pressurized input end of one of the pressurized wire bodies and the input lower wire end of the input wire body, and the third rotating platform can transmit conduction to the input lower wire end in its rotational circumferential direction; and

[0033] The fourth rotating platform is provided between the pressurizing input end of the other pressurizing line body and the third rotating platform;

[0034] Among them, the third rotating table and the fourth rotating table each have a third position and a fourth position in their respective rotation directions. In the third position, the third rotating table and the fourth rotating table can respectively transmit and conduct to the corresponding pressurized input end. In the fourth position, the third rotating table can transmit and conduct to the fourth rotating table.

[0035] Through the above technical solution, after controlling the third turntable to rotate to connect with the input lower line end of the input line body and receive the battery module, if the pressurized line body corresponding to the third turntable is in an idle state, the third turntable can be directly controlled to rotate and the battery module can be conveyed to the corresponding pressurized line body. If the pressurized line body corresponding to the fourth turntable is in an idle state, the third turntable and the fourth turntable can be controlled to rotate to the fourth position, so that the battery module is transferred to the corresponding fourth turntable under the conveying action of the turntable, and then the corresponding fourth turntable is controlled to rotate to connect with the pressurized line body, thereby realizing the scheduling of the battery module from the input line body to different pressurized line bodies. The structural arrangement of this pressurized transfer device is relatively regular, the structure is relatively simple, and the space occupied is small.

[0036] In some embodiments, when in the third position, the third rotary table transmits conduction to the input lower line terminal.

[0037] Through the above technical solution, the third rotating table is set to be in transmission conduction with the input line body in the third position. If the pressurized line body corresponding to the third rotating table is in an idle state, the battery module received from the input line body can be directly transferred to the pressurized line body through the third rotating table, eliminating the process of rotating and aligning the third rotating table and the pressurized line body, thereby improving the transmission efficiency.

[0038] In some embodiments, the input line is also used to transport empty pallets;

[0039] The module pressurizing and static line also includes a pallet transfer line having a pallet receiving end for transferring empty pallets;

[0040] The third rotary table can transmit conduction to the tray receiving end in its rotation circumferential direction.

[0041] Through the above technical solution, the third turntable can also be rotated to be connected with the pallet receiving end. Therefore, when an empty pallet is conveyed on the input line, the third turntable can transfer it to the pallet transfer line in time, thereby preventing the empty pallet from entering the pressurizing station and occupying the pressurizing line, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the module pressurizing static line.

[0042] In a second aspect, the present application further proposes a scheduling method for a module pressurized static line body, wherein the module pressurized static line body includes any one of the module pressurized static line bodies described above;

[0043] The scheduling method includes:

[0044] Unloading step: when a pressurized battery module exists on one of the pressurizing lines, controlling the corresponding first rotating table or the second rotating table to rotate to a first position so as to be electrically connected to the pressurizing output end of the pressurizing line and receive the battery module;

[0045] The material transfer step includes:

[0046] When the first rotating platform receives the battery module, the first rotating platform is controlled to rotate until it is in conduction with the static input end of the static line body;

[0047] When the second rotating table receives the battery module, the first rotating table and the second rotating table are controlled to rotate to a second position to transfer the battery module from the second rotating table to the first rotating table, and the first rotating table is controlled to rotate to be in electrical communication with the static input end of the static line body;

[0048] On-line step: controlling the first rotating platform to transport the battery module to the static input end.

[0049] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, in the material transfer step, the first rotary table plays the role of transferring the battery module to the static line body. When there is a pressurized battery module on one of the pressurized line bodies, if the pressurized line body corresponds to the first rotary table, the first rotary table can be controlled to rotate to the first position, so as to be connected with the pressurized line body, and since the first rotary table also corresponds to the static line body, the battery module can be directly transferred to the static line body through the first rotary table; if the pressurized line body corresponds to the second rotary table, the second rotary table can be controlled to rotate to the first position, so as to be connected with the pressurized line body to receive the battery module. After that, it is also necessary to control the first rotary table to rotate to the first position, so as to be connected with the pressurized line body to receive the battery module. The rotating table and the second rotating table rotate to the second position, thereby transferring the battery module on the second rotating table to the first rotating table, and then transferring the battery module to the static line body through the first rotating table, that is, completing the transfer of the battery modules from multiple pressurized line bodies to the static line body in succession. Since the static line body has a power transmission function, it can transport the received battery modules backward, which can ensure that its static input end is in an empty position, so that it is convenient to receive the next battery module at any time, avoiding the accumulation of battery modules at the static input end, and ensuring efficient scheduling of the battery modules; not only that, multiple pressurized line bodies can share one static line body, but also reduce the space occupation requirement of the module pressurized static line body.

[0050] In some embodiments, the second rotating platform further corresponds to the static output end of the static line body;

[0051] The module pressurized static line also includes an output line;

[0052] After the online step, the method further includes:

[0053] Offline steps:

[0054] When a battery module is present at the stationary output end of the stationary line body, controlling the second rotating platform to rotate until it is in transmission conduction with the stationary output end to receive the battery module;

[0055] After receiving the battery module, the second rotating platform is controlled to rotate until it is connected to the output upper line end of the output line body, so as to transfer the battery module to the output line body.

[0056] Through the above technical solution, a offline step is also provided, and the second rotating table is set between the static output end and the output line body. The battery module from the static output end can be received by the second rotating table and transferred to the output line body, thereby completing the offline operation of the battery module. This method makes full use of the second rotating table, so that it not only has the function of transferring the battery module to the first rotating table, but also has the function of transferring the battery module to the output line body.

[0057] In some embodiments, the module pressurized static line further comprises an input line and at least one pressurized rotating platform;

[0058] Before the blanking step, the scheduling method further includes:

[0059] The material receiving step includes: when a battery module is present at the input end of the input line body, controlling the pressurizing rotary table to rotate until it is in communication with the input end to receive the battery module;

[0060] Feeding step: when one of the pressurized line bodies is in an idle state, controlling the pressurized turntable to rotate until it is connected to the pressurized input end of the pressurized line body, so as to convey the battery module to the pressurized line body.

[0061] Through the above technical solution, if one of the pressurized line bodies is in an idle state, the pressurized line body can be identified, and the pressurized turntable can be rotated to a position corresponding to the pressurized line body, thereby transferring the battery modules received from the input line body to the pressurized line body, wherein "the input line body transports the battery modules to the input downstream end" and "one of the pressurized line bodies is in an idle state" are in the corresponding production rhythm. With the continuous supply of battery modules on the input line body, the pressurized turntable can continuously transfer battery modules to multiple pressurized line bodies, and at the same time, the pressurized line body can also continuously pressurize and consume the battery modules, which can avoid the accumulation of battery modules at the input downstream end, ensuring efficient scheduling of the battery modules. Not only that, multiple pressurized line bodies share one input line body, which also reduces the space occupation requirement of the module pressurized static line body.

[0062] In some embodiments, a plurality of pressurized lines are arranged side by side, and a pressurized rotating platform is provided corresponding to the pressurized input end of each pressurized line. The plurality of pressurized rotating platforms include a third rotating platform and a fourth rotating platform. The third rotating platform and the fourth rotating platform each have a third position for transmitting and conducting with the plurality of pressurized input ends respectively, and a fourth position for transmitting and conducting with each other. The third rotating platform also corresponds to the input lower line end of the input line.

[0063] The step of joining materials comprises:

[0064] When a battery module is present at the input downstream terminal of the input line body, controlling the third rotating platform to rotate until it is in transmission conduction with the input downstream terminal to receive the battery module;

[0065] The feeding step comprises:

[0066] When one of the pressurizing lines is in an empty state and the pressurizing input end of the pressurizing line corresponds to the third rotating table, controlling the third rotating table to rotate to a third position to transport the battery module to the pressurizing input end;

[0067] When one of the pressurizing line bodies is in an idle state and the pressurizing input end of the pressurizing line body corresponds to the fourth turntable, the fourth turntable and the third turntable are controlled to rotate to the fourth position to transfer the battery module to the fourth turntable, and the fourth turntable is controlled to rotate to the third position to convey the battery module to the pressurizing line body.

[0068] The third rotary table is a stationary device for transferring the battery module from the third rotary table to the fourth rotary table, so that the battery module can be transferred from the third rotary table to the fourth rotary table. After that, the fourth rotary table can be rotated to the third position so as to transfer the battery module to the pressurized line body. One of the pressurized rotary tables is set as the third rotary table to make full use of it. At the same time, by rotating multiple pressurized rotary tables to the fourth position, they can be connected to each other, thereby realizing the transfer of the battery module to the corresponding line body. The composition of the static transfer device is relatively regular, the structure is relatively simple, and it takes up less space.

[0069] In some embodiments, the input line is also used to transport empty pallets, and the module pressurizing and static line also includes a pallet transfer line;

[0070] The scheduling method further includes:

[0071] Pallet transfer steps:

[0072] When the input line body conveys an empty pallet, the pressurizing transfer table is controlled to rotate until it is in communication with the input lower line end of the input line body to receive the empty pallet;

[0073] The pressurized transfer platform is controlled to rotate until it is connected to the pallet receiving end of the pallet transfer line body, and an empty pallet is transported to the pallet transfer line body.

[0074] Through the above technical solution, the scheduling method also includes a pallet transfer step, and the pressurized transfer turntable is set between the input line and the pallet transfer line. The pressurized transfer turntable can receive empty pallets and transfer them to the pallet transfer line, thereby realizing the offline of empty pallets, preventing empty pallets from occupying the pressurized line, and improving the processing efficiency of the module pressurized static line.

[0092] Power batteries are not only used in energy storage systems such as hydropower, thermal power, wind power, and solar power stations, but are also widely used in electric vehicles such as electric bicycles, electric motorcycles, and electric cars, as well as in aerospace and other fields. As the application of power batteries continues to expand, the market demand is also constantly increasing. Factories often need to add parallel production lines to increase power battery production.

[0093] However, the increase in parallel production lines also means an increase in factory space requirements. This is especially true in some processing steps, such as the module pressurization and resting process. The pressurized battery modules need to be transferred to the resting station. The existing solution requires a separate resting line for each pressurization station. This results in low utilization of each resting line, which is also known as underutilization. This not only increases the space requirements of the production line, but also increases the assembly cost of the production line.

[0094] Based on the above considerations, in order to improve the situation where the existing power battery production line has a large corresponding space requirement, the present application proposes a module pressurized static line body, which uses multiple rotating platforms to successively transfer the battery modules on multiple pressurized lines to a single static line body, thereby improving the utilization rate of the static line body, reducing the assembly cost of the production line, and reducing the space occupancy requirement of the module pressurized static line body, that is, reducing the space occupancy requirement of the battery pack production line.

[0095] The embodiments of the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings.

[0096] Please refer to Figure 1, which is a schematic diagram of the planar layout of an embodiment of the module pressurizing and static line 100 provided in the present application. In some embodiments of the present application, the module pressurizing and static line 100 has multiple pressurizing stations 11. The module pressurizing and static line 100 is used to transport the battery module with a heat sink bonded to the bottom to the pressurizing station 11 for pressurization and then static. The module pressurizing and static line 100 includes multiple pressurizing lines 1, static lines 2 and static transfer devices 3. The multiple pressurizing lines 1 pass through multiple pressurizing stations 11 respectively to transport the battery module to the corresponding pressurizing station 11. Each pressurizing line 1 has a pressurizing output terminal 13; the static line 2 has a static input terminal 21, and the static line 2 is used for the pressurized battery module to be static; the static transfer device 3 includes a first rotating platform 31 and a second rotating platform 32. The first rotating table 31 is arranged between the pressurized output end 13 of one of the pressurized line bodies 1 and the static input end 21 of the static line body 2. The first rotating table 31 can transmit conduction to the static input end 21 in its rotational direction. The second rotating table 32 is arranged between the pressurized output end 13 of the other pressurized line body 1 and the first rotating table 31. The first rotating table 31 and the second rotating table 32 each have a first position and a second position in their respective rotational directions. In the first position, the first rotating table 31 and the second rotating table 32 can respectively transmit conduction to the corresponding pressurized output end 13. In the second position, the first rotating table 31 can transmit conduction to the second rotating table 32 with each other.

[0097] It should be explained that the plurality of pressurized line bodies 1 can be set to two, three or even more. It can be understood that the more pressurized line bodies 1 are set, the greater the load saturation of the static line body 2, and the higher the utilization rate of the multiple pressurized line bodies 1 to the static line body 2; at the same time, the distribution of the pressurized line bodies 1 can be determined according to the actual production space. In some cases, the plurality of pressurized line bodies 1 are radially distributed around the static transfer device 3. Of course, they can also be distributed in other forms, which is not limited in this embodiment; the battery module is pressurized by the line body 1 After being transported to the pressurizing station 11, the corresponding module pressurizing equipment can complete the pressurization and pressure-maintaining operations, so that the thermal conductive glue between the heat sink and the battery module can be squeezed evenly; the function of the static line body 2 is to provide sufficient line body length, so that it can carry more battery modules and keep them static. The static line body 2 can also gradually transfer the battery module from the static input end 21 to the static output end 22. After the static state, the thermal conductive glue between the battery module and the heat sink is fully bonded and cured, which can ensure the heat dissipation capacity of the battery module;

[0098] It should be noted that, in the present embodiment, the first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 both have the ability to rotate and the ability to transport materials in two directions along a single path. As they rotate, the transport paths of the first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 can rotate, so that they can be rotated to different positions to connect to different lines. There are many specific structures, which are not limited in the present embodiment; the first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 are essentially rotary tables with the same structure. In the present embodiment, they are divided into the first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 according to their specific functions. The first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 can be in a straight line when in the second position, so that they can transmit conduction to each other. It can be understood that the second position of each first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 is relative to its own position. The second position of the rotary table 32 may be in the same position state or in different position states; one or more second rotary tables 32 may be provided according to the number of pressurized lines 1. When multiple second rotary tables 32 are provided and are located on the same side of the first rotary table 31, if the second rotary table 32 on the outside receives the battery module, it is necessary to control all the rotary tables between the second rotary table 32 and the first rotary table 31 to rotate to the second position in order to realize the transfer of the battery module. However, it is worth mentioning that the multiple second rotary tables 32 in between can be simultaneously rotated to the second position to wait until the battery module transfer is completed, and then they can be rotated to the second position in sequence according to the transfer direction to receive the battery module; the first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 can indirectly realize transfer conduction with the help of other transfer structures, or they can directly realize transfer conduction with each other, which is not limited in this embodiment;

[0099] It should be noted that the first rotating platform 31 can transmit conduction to the static input end 21 in its rotational circumferential direction, including: the first rotating platform 31 transmits conduction with the static input end 21 at the first position, the first rotating platform 31 transmits conduction with the static input end 21 at the second position, and the first rotating platform 31 can also transmit conduction with the static input end 21 at other positions, which depends on the arrangement position of the first rotating platform 31 and the second rotating platform 32. For example, when multiple second rotating platforms 32 are provided and the first rotating platform 31 is provided between two second rotating platforms 32, When the first rotating platform 31 and the second rotating platform 32 are in the second position, both ends of the first rotating platform 31 are occupied. At this time, the static input end 21 can only be connected to the first rotating platform 31 in the first position or other positions. When the first rotating platform 31 is set at the end that forms a whole with the second rotating platform 32, no matter in the first position or the second position, one end of the first rotating platform 31 is in an empty position. At this time, the static input end 21 can choose to be connected to the first rotating platform 31 in the first position, the second position, or other positions.

[0100] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, multiple pressurized line bodies 1 can respectively transport battery modules with heat dissipation plates bonded to the bottom to multiple pressurizing stations 11, thereby ensuring the processing efficiency of the battery modules. After the battery modules and the heat dissipation plates are pressurized and maintained at the pressurizing station 11, if the pressurized line body 1 at the pressurizing station 11 corresponds to the first rotating table 31, the first rotating table 31 can be directly controlled to rotate to receive the battery module first, and then rotated to transmit and conduct with the static line body 2 to transmit the battery module to the static line body 2. If the pressurized line body 1 at the pressurizing station 11 corresponds to the second rotating table 32, the corresponding second rotating table 32 can be first controlled to rotate to receive the corresponding battery module, and then the first rotating table 31 and the second rotating table can be controlled to transmit and conduct with the static line body 2. The platforms 32 are all rotated to the second position to transfer the corresponding battery modules to the first rotating platform 31, and finally the first rotating platform 31 is controlled to rotate to be connected with the static line body 2. With this arrangement, the pressurized battery modules on multiple pressurized line bodies 1 can be transferred to the static line body 2 in succession under the coordinated transmission action of the first rotating platform 31 and the second rotating platform 32. There is no need to set up a static line body 2 for each pressurized line body 1 separately, so that the single static line body 2 is fully utilized, thereby reducing the space occupied by the module pressurized static line body 2, that is, reducing the space occupied by the battery pack production line. At the same time, the structural arrangement of this static transfer device 3 is relatively regular, the structure is relatively simple, and the space occupied is small.

[0101] In some embodiments, multiple pressurized wires 1 are arranged side by side.

[0102] It should be explained that the pressurized wire body 1 is usually arranged in an elongated shape, and the multiple pressurized wire bodies 1 are arranged side by side, which means that the multiple pressurized wire bodies 1 are arranged along the width direction of the pressurized wire body 1;

[0103] Through the above-mentioned embodiment, the side-by-side arrangement scheme can ensure that the multiple pressurizing wire bodies 1 are arranged relatively tightly, thereby minimizing the space occupied by the module pressurizing wire bodies 1.

[0104] In some embodiments, when in the first position, the first rotary table 31 transmits conduction to the stationary input terminal 21 .

[0105] Among them, when in the first position, one end of the first rotating platform 31 is in a position connected to the pressurized line body 1, and the other end is in an empty position.

[0106] Through the above embodiment, the first rotating platform 31 is set to be connected to the static input terminal 21 in the first position, so that the battery module received from the pressurized line body 1 can be directly transferred to the static line body 2, eliminating the process of rotating and aligning the first rotating platform 31 and the static line body 2, thereby improving the transfer efficiency.

[0107] Please refer to Figures 2 and 3 in combination. Figure 2 is a scheduling circuit diagram of the module pressurized static line body 100 provided in the present application; Figure 3 is another scheduling circuit diagram of the module pressurized static line body 100 provided in the present application; in some embodiments, the module pressurized static line body 100 also includes an output line body 6, and the output line body 6 includes an output upper line end 61; the static line body 2 also has a static output end 22; the second rotating turntable 32 is arranged between the static output end 22 and the output upper line end 61, and the second rotating turntable 32 can transmit conduction to the static output end 22 and the output upper line end 61 in its rotation circumferential direction.

[0108] It needs to be explained that after the static line body 2 has fully statically placed the battery module, it needs to be transferred offline to continue subsequent processing. Therefore, the static line body 2 usually also has a static output terminal 22; since the second rotating table 32 does not need to be connected to the static input terminal 21, the second rotating table 32 can be connected to the static output terminal 22 at any multiple positions, and this embodiment does not limit it; the second rotating table 32 is arranged between the static output terminal 22 and the output upper line terminal 61, which means that when the transmission path of the static output terminal 22 and the output upper line terminal 61 is the same, the second rotating table 32 is arranged on the transmission path; when the transmission path of the static output terminal 22 and the output upper line terminal 61 is different, the second rotating table 32 is arranged at the intersection of the two transmission paths.

[0109] In combination with Figure 2, it can be seen that the pressurized line body 1 corresponding to the first rotating table 31 is pressurized first, and the battery module is directly transferred to the static line body 2 through the first rotating table 31, and then transferred to the output line body 6 through the second rotating table 32; In combination with Figure 3, it can be seen that the pressurized line body 1 corresponding to the second rotating table 32 is pressurized first, and the battery module is directly transferred to the first rotating table 31 through the second rotating table 32, and then transferred to the static line body 2 through the first rotating table 31, and finally transferred to the output line body 6 through the second rotating table 32.

[0110] Through the above embodiment, one of the second turntables 32 is used as the output turntable of the static line body 2, so that the battery module that has been static can be transferred to the output line body 6. On the one hand, the utilization efficiency of the second turntable 32 is improved, and on the other hand, the space occupied by the module pressurized static line body 100 is reduced, and the assembly cost is also reduced.

[0111] In some embodiments, when in the first position, the second rotary table 32 further transmits conduction to the stationary input terminal 21 ; and / or, when in the second position, the second rotary table 32 further transmits conduction to the output upper line terminal 61 .

[0112] It should be explained that no matter whether the second rotating platform 32 is in the first position or the second position, one end thereof is always in an empty position. That is, in the first position, one end of the second rotating platform 32 is in conduction with the corresponding pressurizing line 1, and the other end is in an empty position. In the second position, one end of the second rotating platform 32 is in conduction with the first rotating platform 31, and the other end is in an empty position.

[0113] Through the above embodiments, whether the second rotating table 32 is set to be in transmission and conduction with the stationary line body 2 when in the first position, or the second rotating table 32 is set to be in transmission and conduction with the output line body 6 when in the second position, the number of working position states of the second rotating table 32 can be reduced, the control thereof can be facilitated, and the positioning accuracy of the second rotating table 32 can be ensured.

[0114] In some embodiments, the static line body 2 includes two first static sections 23, two transition turntables 25 and a second static section 24 arranged side by side. The two first static sections 23 are arranged side by side, and the static input end 21 and the static output end 22 are respectively formed at one end of the two first static sections 23. The other ends of the two first static sections 23 are set as transition ends. The two transition turntables 25 are respectively set corresponding to the two transition ends. The second static section 24 is set between the two transition turntables 25. During the rotation stroke of the transition turntable 25, the second static section 24 can transmit conduction to the corresponding transition end.

[0115] It needs to be explained that the static input end 21 and the static output end 22 of the static line body 2 correspond to the first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 respectively, which is equivalent to forming a rotary transportation for the material. Therefore, the conveying path of the static line body 2 can be arc-shaped or broken line-shaped. In this embodiment, the static line body 2 includes two first static sections 23 arranged side by side, that is, in the shape of a broken line, and cooperates with two transition turntables 25 and the second static section 24 to realize transmission conduction; it should be noted that not only the first static section 23 can station the battery module, but the second static section 24 can also participate in the stationary battery module.

[0116] Through the above embodiment, the two first stationary sections 23 of the stationary line body 2 are arranged side by side to form a rotating transmission path, thereby greatly reducing the space occupied by the stationary line body 2, and the second stationary section 24 is matched with two transition turntables 25 to ensure the efficient transfer of battery modules on the two first stationary sections 23.

[0117] In some embodiments, the module pressurized static line 100 further includes a defective transport line 8 having a defective receiving end 81 ; one of the transition turntables 25 can also transmit conduction to the defective receiving end 81 in its rotational circumferential direction.

[0118] It should be explained that after the pressurizing station 11 is pressurized, there may be defective battery modules, and these battery modules are not allowed to flow to the next station for processing; the function of the transition turntable 25 is to transfer the battery modules of the upstream first static section 23 to the second static section 24, or to transfer the battery modules of the second static section 24 to the downstream first static section 23, and there can be many empty spaces in its rotation circumference for conducting to the defective transfer line 8;

[0119] Through the above embodiment, unqualified battery modules can be screened out of the static line 2 through the corresponding transition turntable 25 and returned to the defective transfer line 8 to prevent good battery modules and defective battery modules from mixing together and affecting production.

[0120] In some embodiments, the pressurized line body 1 has a pressurized input end 12; the module pressurized static line body 100 also includes an input line body 5 and a pressurized transfer device 4, the input line body 5 has an input lower line end 51, and the input line body 5 is used to transport battery modules with a heat sink adhered to the bottom; the pressurized transfer device 4 includes at least one pressurized transfer platform 4a, and at least one pressurized transfer platform 4a can select one of the multiple pressurized input ends 12 to be connected to the input lower line end 51.

[0121] It should be noted that the at least one pressurizing transfer table 4a can realize the transmission and conduction between multiple pressurizing input terminals 12 and the input down-line terminal 51, and its structural forms can be many. For example, the pressurizing transfer device 4 includes a single pressurizing transfer table 4a, and multiple transmission lines are arranged on the single pressurizing transfer table 4a. Each transmission line is used to connect the pressurizing line body 1 and the input line body 5 at the corresponding position. When the pressurizing transfer table 4a rotates to the corresponding position, the corresponding transmission line can connect the corresponding pressurizing line body 1 and the input line body 5; of course, the pressurizing transfer device 4 can also include multiple pressurizing transfer tables 4a, and the battery module is transferred from the input line body 5 to the corresponding pressurizing line body 1 through the mutual cooperation of multiple online turntables. For example, a main turntable and multiple split turntables can be set. The main turntable is set corresponding to the input line body 5 to receive the battery module of the input line body 5, and the multiple split turntables are set corresponding to the multiple pressurizing line bodies 1 respectively to transfer the batteries received on the main turntable to the corresponding pressurizing line body 1.

[0122] Through the above embodiment, a single input line body 5 is used to successively convey battery modules to multiple pressurized line bodies 1 through the pressurized turntable 4a, so that the input line body 5 is fully utilized, thereby ensuring the online efficiency of the battery module, and at the same time reducing the space occupied by the module pressurized static line body 100, that is, reducing the space occupied by the battery pack production line.

[0123] Please refer to Figures 2 and 3 in combination. In some embodiments, the pressurized transfer device 4 includes multiple pressurized transfer platforms 4a, and the multiple pressurized transfer platforms 4a include a third transfer platform 41 and a fourth transfer platform 42. The third transfer platform 41 is arranged between the pressurized input end 12 of one of the pressurized line bodies 1 and the input lower line end 51 of the input line body 5. The third transfer platform 41 can transmit conduction to the input lower line end 51 in its rotation direction; the fourth transfer platform 42 is arranged between the pressurized input end 12 of the other pressurized line body 1 and the third transfer platform 41; wherein the third transfer platform 41 and the fourth transfer platform 42 each have a third position and a fourth position in their respective rotation directions. When in the third position, the third transfer platform 41 and the fourth transfer platform 42 can respectively transmit conduction to the corresponding pressurized input end 12, and when in the fourth position, the third transfer platform 41 can transmit conduction to the fourth transfer platform 42.

[0124] It should be noted that, like the first rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32, in this embodiment, the pressurizing rotary table 4a has the ability to rotate and the ability to transport materials in both directions along a single path. As it rotates, the conveying path of the pressurizing rotary table 4a can rotate, so that it can rotate to different positions to connect to different line bodies. There are many specific structures, which are not limited in this embodiment; the second rotary table 32 and the third rotary table 41 are essentially pressurizing rotary tables 4a with the same structure. In this embodiment, they are divided into the third rotary table 41 and the fourth rotary table 42 according to their specific functions. Since the third rotary table 41 and the fourth rotary table 42 can transmit and conduct to each other in the fourth position, and can both transmit and conduct to the corresponding pressurizing input end 12 in the third position, it is not difficult to understand that in this scheme, multiple pressurizing line bodies 1 are arranged side by side, and multiple pressurizing rotary tables 4a are also arranged side by side, which makes the third rotary table 41 and the fourth rotary table 42 in When in the fourth position, they can be in a straight line, so that they can transmit and conduct to each other; the fourth rotating platform 42 can be set to one or more according to the number of pressurized lines 1. When multiple fourth rotating platforms 42 are set and are on the same side of the third rotating platform 41, when the third rotating platform 41 receives the battery module transmitted from the input line 5, if the pressurized line 1 corresponding to the fourth rotating platform 42 on the outside is in an empty state, it is necessary to control all the rotating platforms between the fourth rotating platform 42 and the third rotating platform 41 to rotate to the fourth position to realize the transmission of the battery module. However, it is worth mentioning that the multiple fourth rotating platforms 42 in between can be rotated to the fourth position at the same time to wait until the battery module is transferred. Then, they can be rotated to the fourth position in sequence according to the transfer direction to receive the battery module; the third rotating platform 41 and the fourth rotating platform 42 can achieve transmission and conduction indirectly with the help of other transmission structures, or they can achieve transmission and conduction directly with each other, which is not limited in this embodiment;

[0125] It should be noted that the third rotating platform 41 can transmit conduction to the input lower line end 51 in its rotation circumferential direction, including the third rotating platform 41 transmitting conduction with the input lower line end 51 at the third position, the third rotating platform 41 transmitting conduction with the input lower line end 51 at the second position, and the third rotating platform 41 can also transmit conduction with the input lower line end 51 at other positions, which depends on the arrangement position of the third rotating platform 41 and the fourth rotating platform 42. For example, when multiple fourth rotating platforms 42 are provided and the third rotating platform 41 is provided between two fourth rotating platforms 42, when the third rotating platform 41 is connected to the input lower line end 51 at the third position, the third rotating platform 41 is connected to the input lower line end 51 at the second position, and the third rotating platform 41 can also transmit conduction with the input lower line end 51 at other positions. When the rotating table 41 and the fourth rotating table 42 are in the fourth position, both ends of the third rotating table 41 are occupied. At this time, the input lower line end 51 of the input line body 5 can only be transmitted and conducted with the third rotating table 41 at the third position or other positions. When the third rotating table 41 is set at the end of multiple pressurizing rotating tables 4a, no matter in the third position or the fourth position, there is an end of the third rotating table 41 in an empty position. At this time, the input lower line end 51 of the input line body 5 can choose to be transmitted and conducted with the third rotating table 41 at the third position, or the fourth position, or other positions.

[0126] In combination with Figure 2, it can be seen that the pressurized line 1 corresponding to the fourth turntable 42 is first in an idle state, and the battery module is transferred to the fourth turntable 42 through the third turntable 41, and then transferred to the pressurized line 1 through the fourth turntable 42; In combination with Figure 3, it can be seen that the pressurized line 1 corresponding to the third turntable 41 is first in an idle state, and the battery module is directly transferred to the pressurized line 1 through the third turntable 41.

[0127] Through the above embodiment, after controlling the third rotating table 41 to rotate to be connected with the input lower line end 51 of the input line body 5 and receiving the battery module, if the pressurized line body 1 corresponding to the third rotating table 41 is in an idle state, the third rotating table 41 can be directly controlled to rotate and the battery module can be conveyed to the corresponding pressurized line body 1. If the pressurized line body 1 corresponding to the fourth rotating table 42 is in an idle state, the third rotating table 41 and the fourth rotating table 42 can be controlled to rotate to the fourth position, so that the battery module is transferred to the corresponding fourth rotating table 42 under the conveying action of the turntable, and then the corresponding fourth rotating table 42 is controlled to rotate to be connected with the pressurized line body 1, thereby realizing the scheduling of the battery module from the input line body 5 to different pressurized line bodies 1. The structural arrangement of this pressurized transfer device 4 is relatively regular, the structure is relatively simple, and the space occupied is small.

[0128] In some embodiments, when in the third position, the third rotating platform 41 transmits conduction to the input lower line terminal 51 .

[0129] It should be explained that, when in the third position, one end of the third rotating platform 41 is connected to the corresponding pressurizing line 1, and the other end is in an empty position.

[0130] Through the above embodiment, the third rotating platform 41 is set to be in transmission conduction with the input line body 5 in the third position. If the pressurized line body 1 corresponding to the third rotating platform 41 is in an idle state, the battery module received from the input line body 5 can be directly transferred to the pressurized line body 1 through the third rotating platform 41, eliminating the process of rotating and aligning the third rotating platform 41 and the pressurized line body 1, thereby improving the transmission efficiency.

[0131] In some embodiments, the input line 5 is also used to transport empty pallets; the module pressurized static line 100 also includes a pallet transfer line 7, which has a pallet receiving end 71 for transferring empty pallets; wherein the third turntable 41 can transmit and conduct to the pallet receiving end 71 in its rotation circumferential direction.

[0132] It needs to be explained that the upstream process of the pressurizing station 11 is the gluing of the heat sink, and the glue-coated heat sink is installed to the bottom of the battery module (at this time, the bottom of the battery module is placed upward on the first tray), and then the heat sink, battery module and the first tray are flipped over as a whole by the flipping clamp and placed on the second tray (at this time, the heat sink at the bottom of the battery module contacts the second tray). The flipping clamp clamps the first tray away from the battery module, and after the second tray is conveyed to the next station by the conveyor line, it is placed on the conveyor line. That is, on the conveying stroke of the conveyor line, there is always a second tray loaded with battery modules and an empty first tray. The second tray needs to be loaded with battery modules to the pressurizing station 11 for pressurization and pressure-maintaining operations, while the first tray does not need to enter the pressurizing station 11.

[0133] Through the above embodiment, the third turntable 41 can also be rotated to be connected with the pallet receiving end. Therefore, when an empty pallet is conveyed on the input line 5, the third turntable 41 can transfer it to the pallet transfer line 7 in time, thereby preventing the empty pallet from entering the pressurizing station 11 and occupying the pressurizing line 1, thereby improving the processing efficiency of the module pressurizing static line 100.

[0134] The present application also proposes a scheduling method for a module pressurized static line 100. Please refer to FIG4, which is a flow chart of a first embodiment of the scheduling method provided by the present application. The module pressurized static line includes any one of the module pressurized static line described above.

[0135] Scheduling methods include:

[0136] Cutting steps:

[0137] S30: When a pressurized battery module exists on one of the pressurizing lines 1, the corresponding first rotating platform 31 or second rotating platform 32 is controlled to rotate to the first position to connect with the pressurizing output end 13 of the pressurizing line 1 and receive the battery module;

[0138] Among them, "there is a pressurized battery module on one of the pressurized lines 1" is a prerequisite for "controlling the rotation of the corresponding first rotary table 31 or the second rotary table 32", and there are many ways to identify "there is a pressurized battery module on one of the pressurized lines 1", for example, it can be identified through feedback from the pressurizing equipment, and this embodiment does not limit it; it is worth mentioning that if the initial position of the first rotary table 31 or the second rotary table 32 is the first position, the first rotary table 31 or the second rotary table 32 does not need to be rotated.

[0139] The material transfer step includes:

[0140] S41a, when the first rotating platform 31 receives the battery module, the first rotating platform 31 is controlled to rotate until it is in conduction with the static input terminal 21 of the static line body 2;

[0141] S41b. When the second rotating table 32 receives the battery module, the first rotating table 31 and the second rotating table 32 are controlled to rotate to the second position to transfer the battery module from the second rotating table 32 to the first rotating table 31, and the first rotating table 31 is controlled to rotate to be connected to the static input end 21 of the static line body 2.

[0142] Among them, in this embodiment, the first rotating platform 31 can also be connected to the static input end 21 of the static line body 2 in its rotational circumference. As to whether it is the first position or the second position that is connected thereto, this embodiment does not limit it; the first rotating platform 31 and the second rotating platform 32 both have a first position and a second position in their respective rotational circumferences. In the first position, the first rotating platform 31 and the second rotating platform 32 are respectively connected to the corresponding pressurized line body 1. In the second position, the first rotating platform 31 and the second rotating platform 32 can also be connected to each other along their arrangement direction, thereby forming a transmission path; the first rotating platform 31 and the second rotating platform 32 also have a power transmission function, which can actively transport the battery module to the static line body 2. At the same time, the static line body 2 also has a power transmission function, which can transport the received battery module backward.

[0143] Steps to go online:

[0144] S50 , controlling the first rotating platform 31 to transport the battery module to the stationary input end 21 .

[0145] In the technical solution of the embodiment of the present application, in the material transfer step, the first rotary table 31 plays the role of transferring the battery module to the static line body 2. When there is a pressurized battery module on one of the pressurized line bodies 1, if the pressurized line body 1 corresponds to the first rotary table 31, the first rotary table 31 can be controlled to rotate to the first position, so as to be connected with the pressurized line body 1, and since the first rotary table 31 also corresponds to the static line body 2, the battery module can be directly transferred to the static line body 2 through the first rotary table 31; if the pressurized line body 1 corresponds to the second rotary table 32, the second rotary table 32 can be controlled to rotate to the first position, so as to be connected with the pressurized line body 1 to receive the battery module. After that, it is also necessary to control the first rotary table 31 to rotate to the first position, so as to be connected with the pressurized line body 1 to receive the battery module. The rotary table 31 and the second rotary table 32 rotate to the second position, thereby transferring the battery module on the second rotary table 32 to the first rotary table 31, and then transferring the battery module to the static line body 2 through the first rotary table 31, that is, completing the transfer of the battery modules from multiple pressurized line bodies 1 to the static line body 2 in succession. Since the static line body 2 has a power transmission function, the received battery module can be transported backward, which can ensure that its static input end 21 is in an empty position, so that the next battery module can be received at any time, avoiding the accumulation of battery modules at the static input end 21, and ensuring efficient scheduling of battery modules; not only that, multiple pressurized line bodies 1 can share one static line body 2, but also reduce the space occupation requirement of the module pressurized static line body 2.

[0146] In some embodiments, the second rotating platform 32 also corresponds to the static output end 22 of the static line body 2, and the module pressurized static line body 100 further includes an output line body 6;

[0147] After the on-line step, it also includes:

[0148] Offline steps:

[0149] S61, when a battery module is present at the stationary output end 22 of the stationary line body 2, controlling the second rotating platform 32 to rotate until it is in communication with the stationary output end 22 to receive the battery module;

[0150] S62 , after receiving the battery module, controlling the second rotating platform 32 to rotate to be connected to the output upper line terminal 61 of the output line body 6 , so as to transfer the battery module to the output line body 6 .

[0151] Through the above embodiment, a de-line step is also provided, and the second rotating table 32 is provided between the stationary output terminal 22 and the output line body 6. The battery module from the stationary output terminal 22 can be received by the second rotating table 32 and transferred to the output line body 6, thereby completing the de-line operation of the battery module. This method makes full use of the second rotating table 32, so that it not only has the function of transferring the battery module to the first rotating table 31, but also has the function of transferring the battery module to the output line body 6.

[0152] Continuing to refer to FIG4 , in some embodiments, the module pressurized static line 100 further includes an input line 5 and at least one pressurized rotating platform 4 a ;

[0153] Before the blanking step, the scheduling method also includes:

[0154] S10, receiving step: when a battery module is present at the input lower line terminal 51 of the input line body 5, the pressurizing rotating table 4a is controlled to rotate until it is in communication with the input lower line terminal 51 to receive the battery module;

[0155] Among them, "the presence of a battery module at the input lower line end 51" is a prerequisite for "controlling the rotation of the pressurizing rotary table 4a", and there are many ways to identify the presence of a battery module at the input upper line end, which is not limited in this embodiment. The pressurizing rotary table 4a can then be rotated to be connected to the input lower line end 51 of the input line body 5. It is worth mentioning that under certain circumstances, the pressurizing rotary table 4a can maintain connection with the output line body 6 at the initial position. At this time, if a battery module is present at the input lower line end 51, the pressurizing rotary table 4a does not need to be rotated. Of course, controlling the pressurizing rotary table 4a to rotate half a circle or a full circle according to its structure can also achieve renewed connection with the input line body 5. The above situations all fall within the scope of protection of this embodiment.

[0156] S20, feeding step: when one of the pressurized line bodies 1 is in an empty state, the pressurized rotary table 4a is controlled to rotate to be connected to the pressurized input end 12 of the pressurized line body 1, so as to feed the battery module to the pressurized line body 1.

[0157] Among them, "one of the pressurized line bodies 1 is in an idle state" is a prerequisite for "controlling the rotation of the pressurized rotary table 4a". Subsequently, the pressurized rotary table 4a loaded with the battery module can be rotated to be connected with the corresponding pressurized line body 1. It is worth mentioning that under certain circumstances, the pressurized rotary table 4a can also be connected with the corresponding pressurized line body 1 when it is connected with the input line body 5. At this time, after receiving the battery module, the pressurized rotary table 4a does not need to be rotated. Of course, according to the structure of the pressurized rotary table 4a, controlling its rotation half a circle or a full circle can also achieve re-connection with the corresponding pressurized line body 1. The above situations all belong to the content protected by this embodiment.

[0158] Through the above embodiment, if one of the pressurized line bodies 1 is in an idle state, the pressurized line body 1 can be identified, and the pressurized rotary table 4a can be rotated to a position corresponding to the pressurized line body 1, thereby transferring the battery module received from the input line body 5 to the pressurized line body 1, wherein "the input line body 5 transports the battery module to the input downstream end 51" and "one of the pressurized line bodies 1 is in an idle state" are in the corresponding production rhythm. With the continuous supply of battery modules on the input line body 5, the pressurized rotary table 4a can continuously transfer battery modules to multiple pressurized line bodies 1. At the same time, the pressurized line body 1 can also continuously pressurize and consume the battery modules, which can avoid the battery modules from accumulating at the input downstream end 51, ensuring efficient scheduling of the battery modules. Not only that, multiple pressurized line bodies 1 share one input line body 5, which also reduces the space occupation requirement of the module pressurized static line body 100.

[0159] In some embodiments, a plurality of pressurized lines 1 are arranged side by side, and a pressurized transfer platform 4a is provided corresponding to the pressurized input end 12 of each pressurized line 1. The plurality of pressurized transfer platforms 4a include a third transfer platform 41 and a fourth transfer platform 42. The third transfer platform 41 and the fourth transfer platform 42 each have a third position for transmitting and conducting with the plurality of pressurized input ends 12, and a fourth position for transmitting and conducting with each other. The third transfer platform 41 also corresponds to the input lower line end of the input line 5.

[0160] The material joining steps include:

[0161] When a battery module is present at the input lower line terminal 51 of the input line body 5, the third rotating platform 41 is controlled to rotate to be in communication with the input lower line terminal 51 to receive the battery module;

[0162] The feeding steps include:

[0163] When one of the pressurizing lines 1 is in an empty state and the pressurizing input end 12 of the pressurizing line 1 corresponds to the third rotating platform 41, the third rotating platform 41 is controlled to rotate to the third position to transport the battery module to the pressurizing input end 12;

[0164] When one of the pressurized line bodies 1 is in an idle state and the pressurized input end 12 of the pressurized line body 1 corresponds to the fourth rotating table 42, the fourth rotating table 42 and the third rotating table 41 are controlled to rotate to the fourth position to transfer the battery module to the fourth rotating table 42, and the fourth rotating table 42 is controlled to rotate to the third position to transport the battery module to the pressurized line body 1.

[0165] Among them, in this embodiment, each pressurized line body 1 has a pressurized rotary table 4a corresponding to it, and the multiple pressurized rotary tables 4a are divided into two types, one is the third rotary table 41, and the other is the fourth rotary table 42. The third rotary table 41 also corresponds to the input line body 5. Therefore, the third rotary table 41 can also be connected to the input lower line end 51 of the input line body 5 in its rotation circumferential direction. As for whether it is connected with it at the third position or the fourth position, this embodiment does not limit it; since the multiple pressurized line bodies 1 are arranged side by side, the multiple pressurized rotary tables 4a are also arranged side by side. The multiple pressurized rotary tables 4a have a third position and a fourth position in their rotation circumferential direction. In the third position, the multiple pressurized rotary tables 4a are respectively connected to the corresponding pressurized line body 1. In the fourth position, the multiple pressurized rotary tables 4a can also be connected to each other along their arrangement direction, thereby forming a transmission path.

[0166] Through the above embodiment, in the feeding step, the third rotating platform 41 plays the role of receiving the battery module from the input line body 5. After receiving the battery module, one of the pressurized line bodies 1 is in an empty state. If the pressurized line body 1 corresponds to the third rotating platform 41, the third rotating platform 41 can be directly rotated to the third position, thereby transmitting conduction with the pressurized line body 1. If the pressurized line body 1 corresponds to the fourth rotating platform 42, the third rotating platform 41 and the fourth rotating platform 42 can be rotated to the fourth position, thereby transmitting conduction to each other. The battery module can be transferred from the third rotating platform 41 to the fourth rotating platform 42. After that, the fourth rotating platform 42 can be rotated to the third position to be connected with the pressurized line 1; one of the pressurizing rotating platforms 4a is set as the third rotating platform 41 to make full use of it. At the same time, by rotating multiple pressurizing rotating platforms 4a to the fourth position, they can be connected with each other, thereby realizing the transfer of the battery module to the corresponding line. The composition of the static transfer device 3 is relatively regular, the structure is relatively simple, and it takes up less space.

[0167] In some embodiments, the input line 5 is also used to transport empty pallets, and the module pressurizing and static line 100 further includes a pallet transfer line 7;

[0168] The scheduling method also includes:

[0169] Pallet transfer steps:

[0170] When the input line 5 is conveying an empty pallet, the pressurized transfer platform 4a is controlled to rotate to be in communication with the input lower line end 51 of the input line 5 to receive the empty pallet;

[0171] The pressurized transfer platform 4a is controlled to rotate until it is connected to the pallet receiving end 71 of the pallet transfer line 7 and transports empty pallets to the pallet transfer line 7.

[0172] Through the above embodiment, the scheduling method also includes a pallet transfer step, and the pressurized transfer platform 4a is set between the input line 5 and the pallet transfer line 7. The empty pallets can be received by the pressurized transfer platform 4a and transferred to the pallet transfer line 7, thereby realizing the offline of empty pallets, preventing empty pallets from occupying the pressurized line 1, and improving the processing efficiency of the module pressurized static line 100.
