The distance between the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 can be adjusted by the position where the first fitting surface 11a is provided in the second portion 11c.

第一支持部材１１は、回転部２１により回転可能である。保持面１１ｂｓは、回転部２１により例えば図中の矢印Ｒ１が示す方向など、後述する第二支持部材１２の第一主面１２ｂｓに向かう方向に、回転する。回転部２１は、モータＭと、モータＭの回転駆動を伝達するローラベルト２１ａとを有している。ローラベルト２１ａは、第一支持部材１１に接続された回転軸Ａ１を回転駆動する。このため、モータＭがローラベルト２１ａを回転駆動させることにより、第一支持部材１１を回転させることができる。   The first support member 11 can be rotated by the rotating unit 21. The holding surface 11bs is rotated by the rotating unit 21 in a direction toward the first main surface 12bs of the second support member 12 described later, such as a direction indicated by an arrow R1 in the drawing. The rotating unit 21 includes a motor M and a roller belt 21a that transmits rotational driving of the motor M. The roller belt 21a rotationally drives the rotation shaft A1 connected to the first support member 11. For this reason, when the motor M rotates the roller belt 21a, the first support member 11 can be rotated.

第二支持部材１２は、第二部材３ｂを支持する。第二支持部材１２は、例えば板状の第三部分１２ｂと例えば板状の第四部分１２ｃとを有している。第三部分１２ｂは第一主面１２ｂｓを有し、第四部分１２ｃは第二主面１２ｃｓを有している。第一主面１２ｂｓには、第二部材３ｂが配置され、保持されている。第二部材３ｂは、ボルト等で第一主面１２ｂｓに固定されていてもよい。第三部分１２ｂは、互いに対向する端部１２ｂ１，１２ｂ２を有している。   The second support member 12 supports the second member 3b.

The third portion 12b has a first main surface 12bs, and the fourth portion 12c has a second main surface 12cs. The second member 3b is disposed and held on the first main surface 12bs. The second member 3b may be fixed to the first main surface 12bs with a bolt or the like. The third portion 12b has end portions 12b1 and 12b2 facing each other.

第四部分１２ｃは第三部分１２ｂと交差している。第四部分１２ｃは、互いに対向する端部１２ｃ１，１２ｃ２を有している。第三部分１２ｂと第四部分１２ｃとは、端部１２ｂ２と、端部１２ｃ１と端部１２ｃ２との間に位置する接続部分と、が接続されることにより、角度をなして互いに接続している。第二支持部材１２の端部１２ｂ２側には、回転軸Ａ２が接続されている。第一主面１２ｂｓの裏面側は、支持台Ｂ２により支持されている。   The fourth portion 12c intersects with the third portion 12b. The fourth portion 12c has end portions 12c1 and 12c2 that face each other. The third portion 12b and the fourth portion 12c are connected to each other at an angle by connecting the end portion 12b2 and the connection portion located between the end portion 12c1 and the end portion 12c2. . A rotation axis A2 is connected to the end 12b2 side of the second support member 12. The back surface side of the first main surface 12bs is supported by the support base B2.

第二支持部材１２は回転部２１により回転可能である。第一主面１２ｂｓは、例えば図中の矢印Ｒ２が示す方向など保持面１１ｂｓに向かう方向に回転する。回転部２１は、モータＭの回転駆動を伝達するローラベルト２１ｂを有している。ローラベルト２１ｂは、第二支持部材１２に接続された回転軸Ａ２を回転駆動する。このため、モータＭがローラベルト２１ｂを回転駆動させることにより、第二支持部材１２を回転させることができる。   The second support member 12 can be rotated by the rotating unit 21. The first main surface 12bs rotates in a direction toward the holding surface 11bs such as a direction indicated by an arrow R2 in the drawing. The rotating unit 21 has a roller belt 21b that transmits the rotational drive of the motor M. The roller belt 21b rotationally drives the rotation shaft A2 connected to the second support member 12. For this reason, when the motor M rotates the roller belt 21b, the second support member 12 can be rotated.

第二支持部材１２は、第一支持部材１１の第一嵌合面１１ａと嵌合する第二嵌合面１２ａを有している。第二支持部材１２において、第二嵌合面１２ａは、第二主面１２ｃｓの裏面と、第四部分１２ｃの端部１２ｃ２の端面とを含む。第二支持部材１２が回転することにより、第二嵌合面１２ａは、第一嵌合面１１ａと嵌合する。第二嵌合面１２ａ上にシール材が形成されてもよい。   The second support member 12 has a second fitting surface 12 a that fits with the first fitting surface 11 a of the first support member 11. In the second support member 12, the second fitting surface 12a includes the back surface of the second main surface 12cs and the end surface of the end portion 12c2 of the fourth portion 12c. As the second support member 12 rotates, the second fitting surface 12a is fitted with the first fitting surface 11a. A sealing material may be formed on the second fitting surface 12a.

このように構成される蓄電パック１の製造装置１０は以下のように動作する。図３は、図２の蓄電パックの製造装置により蓄電パックを製造する態様を説明するための図である。   The manufacturing apparatus 10 of the electricity storage pack 1 configured as described above operates as follows. FIG. 3 is a diagram for explaining an aspect in which the electricity storage pack is manufactured by the electricity storage pack manufacturing apparatus in FIG. 2.

第一部材３ａが第一支持部材１１に配置され、第二部材３ｂが第二支持部材１２に配置される。回転部２１により、第一支持部材１１が例えば９０度回転されるとともに、第二支持部材１２が例えば９０度回転される。保持面１１ｂｓと第一主面１２ｂｓとが対向し、第一嵌合面１１ａと第二嵌合面１２ａとが嵌合する。第一支持部材１１と第二支持部材１２とが、互いに嵌め合わされたときに、第二主面１２ｃｓは、搬送部１３の上面を含む仮想平面Ｌよりも下方に位置している。第一部材３ａは、搬送部１３により、第二部材３ｂに向かう方向に移動される。搬送部１３は、例えば、回転ローラである。   The first member 3 a is disposed on the first support member 11, and the second member 3 b is disposed on the second support member 12. The first support member 11 is rotated by, for example, 90 degrees by the rotating unit 21, and the second support member 12 is rotated by, for example, 90 degrees. The holding surface 11bs and the first main surface 12bs face each other, and the first fitting surface 11a and the second fitting surface 12a are fitted. When the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 are fitted together, the second main surface 12cs is positioned below the virtual plane L including the upper surface of the transport unit 13. The first member 3a is moved by the transport unit 13 in the direction toward the second member 3b. The transport unit 13 is, for example, a rotating roller.

第一嵌合面１１ａと第二嵌合面１２ａとが嵌合することにより、精度高く位置決めを行うことができる。さらに、搬送部１３により、第一部材３ａが第二部材３ｂに向かって搬送され、第一部材３ａと第二部材３ｂとが接続される。その後、作業者がボルト等で締結することにより、第一部材３ａと第二部材３ｂとが締結固定される。   By positioning the first fitting surface 11a and the second fitting surface 12a, positioning can be performed with high accuracy. Furthermore, the 1st member 3a is conveyed toward the 2nd member 3b by the conveyance part 13, and the 1st member 3a and the 2nd member 3b are connected. Thereafter, the first member 3a and the second member 3b are fastened and fixed by the operator fastening with bolts or the like.

このとき、製造装置１０による蓄電パックの製造方法として、以下の処理手順が実行される。この処理手順について、図４に示すフローチャートを参照しながら説明する。図４は、蓄電パックを製造する手順を示すフローチャートである。   At this time, the following processing procedure is executed as a method of manufacturing the electricity storage pack by the manufacturing apparatus 10.

At this time, a plurality of power storage modules 2 are attached to each of the first member 3a and the second member 3b. Since the first member 3a and the second member 3b are supported by the holding surface 11bs and the first main surface 12bs, respectively, the plurality of power storage modules 2 are arranged in the first member 3a and the second member 3b from vertically upward to downward. Attached to. For this reason, the operator can attach the some electrical storage module 2 to each of the 1st member 3a and the 2nd member 3b easily.

次に、ステップＳ２（移動する工程）において、第一支持部材１１及び第二支持部材１２を移動する。このとき、第一支持部材１１と第二支持部材１２とが、回転部２１により、保持面１１ｂｓと第一主面１２ｂｓとが互いに向かい合うように回転する。   Next, in step S2 (moving step), the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 are moved. At this time, the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 are rotated by the rotating portion 21 so that the holding surface 11bs and the first main surface 12bs face each other.

次に、ステップＳ３（嵌め合わせる工程）において、保持面１１ｂｓと第一主面１２ｂｓとが対向し、第一嵌合面１１ａと第二嵌合面１２ａとが嵌合する（図３参照）。   Next, in step S3 (step of fitting), the holding surface 11bs and the first main surface 12bs face each other, and the first fitting surface 11a and the second fitting surface 12a are fitted (see FIG. 3).

次に、ステップＳ４において、搬送部１３により、第一部材３ａが第二部材３ｂに向かって搬送され、第一部材３ａと第二部材３ｂとが接続される。ステップＳ４は、接続する工程である。このとき、第一支持部材１１と第二支持部材１２とが、互いに嵌め合わされたときに、第二主面１２ｃｓは、搬送部１３の上面を含む仮想平面Ｌよりも下方に位置している。この場合、第一部材３ａを第二部材３ｂに向かって搬送し易くなるので、精度高く位置決めを行うことができる。さらに、作業者がボルト等で締結することにより、第一部材３ａと第二部材３ｂとを締結固定することができる。   Next, in step S4, the first member 3a is transported toward the second member 3b by the transport unit 13, and the first member 3a and the second member 3b are connected. Step S4 is a connecting step. At this time, when the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 are fitted to each other, the second main surface 12cs is positioned below the virtual plane L including the upper surface of the transport unit 13. In this case, since it becomes easy to convey the 1st member 3a toward the 2nd member 3b, it can position with high precision. Furthermore, the first member 3a and the second member 3b can be fastened and fixed by the operator fastening with bolts or the like.

以上説明した蓄電パック１の製造装置１０によれば、第一支持部材１１及び第二支持部材１２が互いに近づくように移動し、第一支持部材１１の第一嵌合面１１ａと第二支持部材１２の第二嵌合面１２ａとが互いに嵌め合うことにより、第一支持部材１１と第二支持部材１２とが位置決めされる。よって、第一部材３ａ及び第二部材３ｂのそれぞれに取り付けられた複数の蓄電モジュール２の重量が重い場合であっても、蓄電パック１を容易に組立てることが可能となる。例えば、位置決めに要する時間が短くなる。また、例えば、第一嵌合面１１ａ及び第二嵌合面１２ａの損傷を抑制しつつ、位置決めを高精度に行うことができる。   According to the manufacturing apparatus 10 of the electricity storage pack 1 described above, the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 move so as to approach each other, and the first fitting surface 11a of the first support member 11 and the second support member are moved. The first support member 11 and the second support member 12 are positioned by fitting the 12 second fitting surfaces 12a to each other. Therefore, even when the plurality of power storage modules 2 attached to the first member 3a and the second member 3b are heavy, the power storage pack 1 can be easily assembled. For example, the time required for positioning is shortened. For example, positioning can be performed with high accuracy while suppressing damage to the first fitting surface 11a and the second fitting surface 12a.

また、第一支持部材１１及び第二支持部材１２が、回転することにより、第一部材３ａと第二部材３ｂとの位置決めの精度を簡易な構成により高めることができる。また、回転部２１は、モータＭによりローラベルト２１ａ及びローラベルト２１ｂを回転駆動させるため、第一支持部材１１の回転と第二支持部材１２の回転とを容易に同期させることができる。   Moreover, when the 1st support member 11 and the 2nd support member 12 rotate, the precision of positioning with the 1st member 3a and the 2nd member 3b can be improved with a simple structure. In addition, since the rotating unit 21 rotates the roller belt 21a and the roller belt 21b by the motor M, the rotation of the first support member 11 and the rotation of the second support member 12 can be easily synchronized.

第一支持部材１１が搬送部１３を有するので、第一部材３ａを搬送部１３により搬送することができる。第一支持部材１１と第二支持部材１２とが、互いに嵌め合わされたときに、第二主面１２ｃｓは、搬送部１３の上面を含む仮想平面Ｌよりも下方に位置している。第一支持部材１１と第二支持部材１２とが、互いに嵌め合わされたときに、第二主面１２ｃｓは、仮想平面Ｌに同一平面であってもよい。第二主面１２ｃｓが仮想平面Ｌ以下であると、第一部材３ａを第二部材３ｂに向かって搬送する際に、第二支持部材１２における第二主面１２ｃｓを有する部分が、搬送の妨げになり難い。   Since the first support member 11 includes the transport unit 13, the first member 3 a can be transported by the transport unit 13. When the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 are fitted together, the second main surface 12cs is positioned below the virtual plane L including the upper surface of the transport unit 13. When the first support member 11 and the second support member 12 are fitted together, the second main surface 12cs may be flush with the virtual plane L. When the second main surface 12cs is equal to or less than the imaginary plane L, when the first member 3a is conveyed toward the second member 3b, the portion having the second main surface 12cs in the second support member 12 hinders conveyance. It is hard to become.

ここで、本実施形態の変形例に係る蓄電パックの製造装置について説明する。   Here, the manufacturing apparatus of the electrical storage pack which concerns on the modification of this embodiment is demonstrated.

第一部分１１ｂの端部１１ｂ１には吊り輪が設けられていてもよい。第三部分１２ｂの端部１２ｂ１には吊り輪が設けられていてもよい。回転部２１は、端部１１ｂ１及び端部１２ｂ１に設けられた吊り輪を吊り上げてもよい。回転部２１が、これらの吊り輪をワイヤなどで牽引することにより、第一支持部材１１が回転軸Ａ１を軸に回転し、第二支持部材１２が回転軸Ａ２を軸に回転する。回転部２１は、例えば、ホイスト式などの天井クレーンによって吊り上げを行うことができる。このように構成すると、モータＭ、ローラベルト２１ａ，２１ｂを設けることなく、第一支持部材１１及び第二支持部材１２を互いに対向するように回転させることができる。   A suspension ring may be provided at the end portion 11b1 of the first portion 11b. A suspension ring may be provided at the end 12b1 of the third portion 12b. The rotating part 21 may lift a suspension ring provided at the end part 11b1 and the end part 12b1. When the rotating unit 21 pulls these suspension rings with a wire or the like, the first support member 11 rotates about the rotation axis A1, and the second support member 12 rotates about the rotation axis A2. The rotating unit 21 can be lifted by an overhead crane such as a hoist type. If comprised in this way, the 1st support member 11 and the 2nd support member 12 can be rotated so that it may mutually oppose, without providing the motor M and roller belt 21a, 21b.

また、本実施形態の他の変形例に係る製造装置について説明する。   A manufacturing apparatus according to another modification of the present embodiment will be described.

支持台Ｂ２は、支持台Ｂ１に対して離間可能な構成としてもよい。支持台Ｂ２は、例えば、移動可能な台車などに載置された支持台Ｂ２としてもよい。このとき、上述した実施形態と同様に、ローラベルト２１ａにモータＭの回転駆動が伝達されることにより、第一支持部材１１は、回転軸Ａ１の周りに回転することができる。一方、第二支持部材１２は、支持台Ｂ２に設けられたモータ及び当該モータの回転駆動を伝達するローラベルトにより、回転軸Ａ２を回転軸として、回転することができる。このように構成すると、第二部材３ｂに蓄電モジュール２を取り付ける作業を他の場所で行うことができる。このため、支持台Ｂ２が地面に固定されている場合に比べ、製造装置１０を小型化することによって、省スペース化を図ることができる。   The support base B2 may be configured to be separable from the support base B1. The support base B2 may be, for example, the support base B2 placed on a movable carriage or the like. At this time, as in the above-described embodiment, the rotation of the motor M is transmitted to the roller belt 21a, whereby the first support member 11 can rotate around the rotation axis A1. On the other hand, the second support member 12 can be rotated about the rotation axis A2 as a rotation axis by a motor provided on the support base B2 and a roller belt that transmits the rotational drive of the motor. If comprised in this way, the operation | work which attaches the electrical storage module 2 to the 2nd member 3b can be performed in another place. For this reason, compared with the case where support base B2 is being fixed to the ground, space-saving can be achieved by making manufacturing apparatus 10 small.
