Furthermore, the particular features, structures, materials, or characteristics described may be combined in any suitable manner in any one or more embodiments or examples.
Referring to fig. 1 and 4, in some embodiments, a conveying apparatus 10 includes: a first conveying mechanism 100, a second conveying mechanism 200, and a mating mechanism 500. The first conveying mechanism 100 includes a plurality of first conveying belts 110 arranged at intervals along the first direction. The first conveying belt 110 is used for conveying the battery, and the specific structure of the first conveying belt 110 for conveying the battery can be that a belt is connected to a motor, and when the motor rotates, the belt is driven to rotate, so that the battery is conveyed. The structures of the second conveyor belt 210, the third conveyor belt 530, and the fourth conveyor belt 640 may refer to the structure of the first conveyor belt 110, and will not be described in detail below. In the first direction, a first distance 300 is provided between two adjacent first conveyor belts 110. The second conveying mechanism 200 includes a plurality of second conveying belts 210 disposed at intervals along the first direction. The second conveyor belts 210 are used for conveying the batteries, and a second interval 400 is arranged between two adjacent second conveyor belts 210 along the first direction, and the first interval 300 and the second interval 400 are not equal to each other. Such as the first pitch 300 being greater than the second pitch 400, or the second pitch 400 being greater than the first pitch 300. Wherein the first conveyor 100 may be mated to a first processing tool and the second conveyor 200 may be mated to a second processing tool. The pairing mechanism 500 is located between the first conveying mechanism 100 and the second conveying mechanism 200. The mating mechanism 500 is used to transfer the batteries on the first conveyor belt 110 to the second conveyor belt 210. Alternatively, the mating mechanism 500 is used to transfer the batteries on the second conveyor belt 210 to the first conveyor belt 110. Specifically, the first spacing 300 is provided between two adjacent first conveyor belts 110 in the first conveyor mechanism 100, the second spacing 400 is provided between two adjacent second conveyor belts 210 in the second conveyor mechanism 200, the first spacing 300 and the second spacing 400 are not equal to each other, wherein the pairing structure can transfer the battery on the first conveyor belt 110 to the second conveyor belt 210, or the pairing mechanism 500 can transfer the battery on the second conveyor belt 210 to the first conveyor belt 110, so that the conveyor 10 can still transport the battery from the first conveyor belt 110 to the second conveyor belt 210 even if the first spacing 300 and the second spacing 400 are different. In particular, the conveyor 10 enables the battery to be transported between conveyor belts of different spacing.
Referring to fig. 4, the conveying device 10 conveys the battery in a direction, which is referred to as a conveying direction. The first direction specifically refers to a direction perpendicular to the conveying direction. In the case where the battery is transported by the conveyor 10, the transport direction may be the longitudinal direction of the conveyor. For example, the conveying direction may be a longitudinal direction of the first conveying belt 110.
It should be noted that, when the pairing mechanism 500 is not provided, since the first spacing 300 between two adjacent first conveyor belts 110 in the first conveyor mechanism 100 and the second spacing 400 between two adjacent second conveyor belts 210 in the second conveyor mechanism 200 are different, the battery cannot be transferred to the second processing device immediately after being processed by the first processing device, which clearly delays the time and slows down the processing efficiency. Therefore, the conveying apparatus 10 of the present application also has an advantage of improving the processing efficiency.
The battery mentioned in the present application is further specifically explained below. The battery includes a housing, a battery core, a top cover, etc., so in this application, the conveying device 10 may convey the battery housing, and the conveying device 10 may also convey the battery core or the top cover, where the battery in this application does not necessarily refer to the whole battery, but may also be a part of the battery (i.e., a housing, etc.).
For ease of illustration, the pairing mechanism 500 is used in this application to transfer batteries on the first conveyor belt 110 to the second conveyor belt 210. Referring to fig. 1, 4 and 5, in some embodiments, the pairing mechanism 500 includes a first driving member 510, a plurality of moving members 520 and a plurality of third conveyor belts 530. The plurality of moving members 520 and the plurality of third conveyor belts 530 may be, for example, two moving members 520 and two third conveyor belts 530. The first driving member 510 is connected to the moving members 520, and each moving member 520 is connected to a third conveyor 530. The third conveyor 530 is for conveying the batteries. The first driving member 510 is configured to drive the moving member 520 to move the third conveyor belts 530 along the first direction, so that two adjacent third conveyor belts 530 are close to or far from each other. Specifically, taking two moving members 520 and two third conveying belts 530 as an example, the first driving member 510 may drive the two moving members 520 to move toward or away from each other, and when the two moving members 520 move toward or away from each other, the moving members 520 may drive the third conveying belts 530 to move. That is, the interval between the adjacent two third conveyor belts 530 may be changed by the first driving member 510, and the interval between the adjacent two third conveyor belts 530 may be increased or decreased. It is conceivable that the conveyance path of the battery is: first conveyance mechanism 100-pairing mechanism 500-second conveyance mechanism 200. When the first conveyor 100 transports the batteries, the first pitch 300 is larger than the second pitch 400, so that the pairing mechanism 500 is required to transport the batteries into the second conveyor 200. A specific procedure may be that first the first drive 510 may adjust the spacing of adjacent two third conveyor belts 530 to coincide with the first spacing 300 so that batteries may be transported from the first conveyor belt 110 onto the third conveyor belts 530. Thereafter, the first driving member 510 adjusts the interval between the adjacent two third conveyor belts 530 to coincide with the second interval 400 so that the battery can be transported from the third conveyor belts 530 to the second conveyor belt 210. In this way, the battery is completed being transported from the first conveyor belt 110 to the second conveyor belt 210. The first driving member 510 may be a linear motor, and the moving member 520 may be a mover on which a plurality of movers move. In addition, a plurality of first driving members 510 may be provided, and each first driving member 510 may be connected to one moving member 520, and one first driving member 510 may drive one moving member 520 to move.
Further, referring to fig. 6, in some embodiments, the first conveyor belt 110 is provided with a first transporting groove 120, and the first transporting groove 120 is used for transporting the battery. The first transporting groove 120 may specifically be a groove formed by two rectangular blocks disposed on a belt, where the rectangular blocks and the belt together form a groove. Wherein, the rectangle piece can prevent that the battery from falling from the belt. The second conveyor belt 210 is provided with a second transport groove 220, and the second transport groove 220 is used for transporting the battery. The third conveyor belt 530 is provided with a third transport groove 540, and the third transport groove 540 is used for transporting the battery. The structures of the second transportation groove 220 and the third transportation groove 540 may refer to the first transportation groove 120. The first transport groove 120 has a first opening 130 near one end of the third transport groove 540, and the first opening 130 may be specifically formed by surrounding the above-mentioned two rectangular blocks and the belt together. The third transport groove 540 has a second opening 550 near one end of the first transport groove 120, the third transport groove 540 has a third opening 560 near one end of the second transport groove 220, and the second transport groove 220 has a fourth opening 230 near one end of the third transport groove 540. Wherein the length of the first opening 130 is smaller than the length of the second opening 550, and the length of the third opening 560 is smaller than the length of the fourth opening 230. The length of the first opening 130 refers in particular to the distance between two rectangular blocks, i.e. the size of the first opening 130. In particular, when the length of the second opening 550 is greater than the length of the first opening 130, the batteries may be more smoothly transferred unimpeded from the first conveyor belt 110 to the third conveyor belt 530. When the length of the fourth opening 230 is greater than the length of the third opening 560, the batteries can be transferred more smoothly unimpeded from the third conveyor 530 to the second conveyor 210. This may make the battery transition smoother.
Further, the conveying device 10 conveys the batteries, so as to facilitate the turnover of the batteries among different processing devices, thereby completing the processing of the batteries. In some cases, such as when the first processing device completes processing the battery case, the case needs to be turned 180 ° to facilitate the subsequent second processing device to process the battery case. This flipping process may be accomplished during battery transportation, among other things, which may improve operating efficiency. Specifically, referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the conveying device 10 further includes a turnover mechanism 600, where the turnover mechanism 600 is located between the first conveying mechanism 100 and the mating mechanism 500, and the turnover mechanism 600 is used to turn over the battery.
Further, referring to fig. 1 to 3 for describing the specific structure of the flipping mechanism 600, in some embodiments, the pairing mechanism 500 includes a third conveyor belt 530, where the third conveyor belt 530 is used to convey the battery. The flipping mechanism 600 includes a second driving member 610 and a flipping member 620, the flipping member 620 having a flipping groove 630, the flipping groove 630 being used for placing a battery, the second driving member 610 being connected to the flipping member 620. The second driving member 610 is used to drive the flipping member 620 to switch between the first position and the second position. The opening of the flipping groove 630 is facing the first conveyor belt 110 when the flipping member 620 is in the first position, and the opening of the flipping groove 630 is facing the third conveyor belt 530 when the flipping member 620 is in the second position. Specifically, when the flipping member 620 is located at the first position, the battery on the first conveyor belt 110 may be transferred to the flipping groove 630, and then the flipping member 620 flips 180 ° such that the opening of the flipping groove 630 is opposite to the third conveyor belt 530, and the battery may be transferred from the flipping groove 630 to the third conveyor belt 530.
Further, in order to improve the turnover efficiency, the turnover mechanism 600 may be made to turn over more batteries at a time. Referring to fig. 1, in some embodiments, the flipping member 620 is provided with two flipping grooves 630, and the two flipping grooves 630 are symmetrically disposed. In this manner, when one of the flipping grooves 630 receives a battery from the first conveyor belt 110, the other flipping groove 630 may transfer the battery located therein onto the third conveyor belt 530, which may increase the flipping efficiency of the flipping mechanism 600 while also having a higher conveying efficiency.
Further, referring to fig. 2, in some embodiments, the turnover mechanism 600 further includes a fourth conveyor 640, the fourth conveyor 640 is co-linear with the first conveyor 110, and the fourth conveyor 640 is used for conveying the batteries, so that the batteries on the first conveyor 110 can be smoothly conveyed onto the fourth conveyor 640. Wherein the length of the fourth conveyor 640 is greater than the length of the flipping member 620. Specifically, the flipping member 620 may be positioned above the fourth conveyor 640 so as to flip the batteries on the fourth conveyor 640. Because the length of the fourth conveyor 640 is greater than the length of the flipping member 620, the battery may also be transported a distance on the fourth conveyor 640 after the flipping member 620 flips the battery, thereby facilitating the transfer of the battery from the fourth conveyor 640 to the third conveyor 530. If the length of the flipping member 620 is greater than the length of the fourth conveyor 640, the battery will skip the fourth conveyor 640 when the flipping member 620 flips the battery, the flipping member 620 needs to directly transfer the flipped battery onto the third conveyor 530, or the flipping member 620 needs to directly receive the battery from the first conveyor 110, which requires precise placement of the battery. And once the position of the battery is deviated, the battery is caught at the interface of the flipping member 620 and the first conveyor 110.
Specifically, there are two cases of placement positions of the first conveying mechanism 100 and the second conveying mechanism 200. In the first case, the first conveying mechanism 100 and the second conveying mechanism 200 are collinear in the conveying direction. In the second case, the first and second transport mechanisms 100, 200 are not collinear. When the processing scene is complex, the first conveying mechanism 100 and the second conveying mechanism 200 cannot be arranged in line, so that the second case can be adopted. Specifically, referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, the first conveying mechanism 100 and the second conveying mechanism 200 are staggered along a conveying direction, and the conveying direction is perpendicular to the first direction. After the first conveying mechanism 100 and the second conveying mechanism 200 are arranged in a staggered manner, the conveying device 10 can be flexibly applied to different processing sites, so that the conveying device 10 can meet different layout and different position requirements.
Further, referring to fig. 4, in some embodiments, the number of first conveyor belts 110 is smaller than the number of second conveyor belts 210, and the first spacing 300 is larger than the second spacing 400. For example, the first conveyor belt 110 may be provided in two, the second conveyor belt 210 may be provided in four, and the distance of the first pitch 300 may be twice the distance of the second pitch 400. When the number of the second conveyor belts 210 is large, the second pitch 400 may be reduced, which may save a certain space. Further, since the first pitch 300 is larger than the second pitch 400, the first conveying mechanism 100 can be adapted to the first processing apparatus, and the second conveying mechanism 200 can be adapted to the second processing apparatus. The first processing device may be a welding device and the second processing device may be a discharge device. In addition, the pairing mechanism 500 may be provided with two third conveyor belts 530. The two third conveyor belts 530 may first receive the batteries from the two first conveyor belts 110, and then the two third conveyor belts 530 may then convey the batteries to two second conveyor belts 210 of the four second conveyor belts 210. For example, two adjacent second conveyor belts 210 near the left side may be used, or two spaced second conveyor belts 210 may be used (two second conveyor belts 210 are spaced apart by one second conveyor belt 210).
Further, since the number of second conveyor belts 210 is greater than the number of first conveyor belts 110, in order to increase the conveying efficiency, in some embodiments, the conveying speed of the second conveyor belts 210 is greater than the conveying speed of the first conveyor belts 110. In particular, the speed of the batteries may be slower as they are transported by the first conveyor belt 110, which may facilitate the transfer of the batteries from the first conveyor belt 110 to the third conveyor belt 530 by the mating mechanism 500. And the speed of the second conveyor belt 210 may be faster because after the battery is transferred from the third conveyor belt 530 to the second conveyor belt 210, the battery on the second conveyor belt 210 does not need to be transferred to the pairing mechanism 500, and thus the transport speed of the second conveyor belt 210 may be increased, thereby improving the transport efficiency.
In some embodiments, the production line includes a conveyor 10 according to any of the embodiments described above. A first distance 300 is provided between two adjacent first conveyor belts 110 in the first conveyor mechanism 100, a second distance 400 is provided between two adjacent second conveyor belts 210 in the second conveyor mechanism 200, the first distance 300 and the second distance 400 are not equal to each other, wherein the pairing structure can transfer the battery on the first conveyor belt 110 to the second conveyor belt 210, or the pairing mechanism 500 can transfer the battery on the second conveyor belt 210 to the first conveyor belt 110, so that the conveyor 10 can still transfer the battery from the first conveyor belt 110 to the second conveyor belt 210 even if the first distance 300 and the second distance 400 are different. In particular, the conveyor 10 enables the battery to be transported between conveyor belts of different spacing. Further, since the conveyor 10 can transport the batteries between conveyor belts of different pitches, the turnover efficiency of the batteries is high, and thus the production efficiency of the production line having the conveyor 10 is high.
The embodiments of the present invention have been described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments, and various changes can be made within the knowledge of one of ordinary skill in the art without departing from the spirit of the present invention. Furthermore, embodiments of the invention and features of the embodiments may be combined with each other without conflict.
