Further, in order to ensure that the battery steel can smoothly fall down and is accurately and reliably abutted with the reversing channel 52, a battery sucking nylon block 54 capable of sliding linearly is movably mounted on the falling channel 51, preferably the battery sucking nylon block 54 is driven by a cylinder, the battery sucking nylon block 54 is used for sucking the steel can at the outlet of the shell changing channel 30 and bringing the steel can into the falling channel 51, when the steel can is brought into the falling channel 51, the steel can is forwardly fallen into a horizontal placement state under the catch action of the catch bar 53, and then the battery sucking nylon block 54 carries the steel can to a preset discharging position 511.
When the battery sucking nylon block 54 approaches to the outlet of the shell changing channel 30, an adsorption force is generated on the steel shell, the steel shell is guided to enter the dumping channel 51, then the steel shell is dumped forwards to be in a horizontal arrangement state under the trip of the stop strip 53, and then the battery sucking nylon block 54 tightly adsorbs the horizontally arranged steel shell to a preset discharging position 511, and the position is used for conveying the horizontally arranged steel shell into the reversing channel 52.
In the present case, this battery trades shell machine still includes setting up at the place ahead of predetermineeing ejection of compact position 511 and with the solid cylindrical turnover drum 55 that falls passageway 51 vertically, the passageway 52 that commutates is for seting up the groove structure on turnover drum 55 along predetermineeing the curve orbit, and the width of this recess is slightly greater than square steel shell's thickness, and the steel shell is difficult for rocking when carrying, avoids battery and steel shell to break away from or loosen.
The solid overturning cylinder 55 is provided with the groove structure with the opening to form the reversing channel 52, so that the steel shell can be naturally guided in the steel shell conveying process and can be pushed to advance, the steel shell can be contacted with the inner wall of the groove in the moving process, the solid structure of the overturning cylinder 55 provides support for the steel shell, the stable and efficient conveying and reversing processes are ensured, the overturning and blocking are not easy, and the upper end of the steel shell which is out of the reversing channel 52 is equal to the lower end of the steel shell on the shell replacing channel 30 (or the steel shell conveying channel 20).
To ensure that the steel shell can be stably and reliably fed into the reversing channel 52, the blocking phenomenon is overcome, the production efficiency is improved, and the space utilization rate is also improved; the pushing piece 56 for pushing the steel shell at the preset discharging position 511 into the reversing channel 52 is arranged behind the preset discharging position 511, the inlet of the reversing channel 52, the preset discharging position 511 and the pushing piece 56 are positioned on the same straight line track, and the three-point and one-line structural layout is adopted, so that the butt joint of all the components is smooth and stable, and the working is reliable.
In order to enable the steel shell to reliably enter the reversing channel 52 and avoid other interference, side plates 57 are encircled at two sides of the dumping channel 51, so that two sides of the dumping channel 51 are respectively exposed only for the pushing piece 56 to move, the steel shell moves into a notch of the reversing channel 52, and the width of the notch is slightly larger than the height of the steel shell (the width of the steel shell is the width of the steel shell because the steel shell is in a horizontal dumping state).
Further, it is preferable that the pushing member 56 is a battery pushing block driven by a cylinder, the lower end of the face of the battery pushing block is provided with an abutting groove 561 matched with the steel shell, the upper end of the face of the battery pushing block is provided with an outer convex pushing structure with a thick upper part and a thin lower part, and the height of the abutting groove 561 is larger than or slightly larger than the thickness of the steel shell.
When square battery steel shell is pushed, one side of the steel shell is propped against the inside of the propping groove 561, and the pushing structure has a boosting function and can ensure the stability of the steel shell during translation, so that the steel shell is not easy to deviate from a preset track.
In order to improve the compactness of the overall layout and ensure the reliability of the reversing structure operation, the width of the dumping channel 51 is preferably slightly larger than that of the steel shell, the battery-absorbing nylon block 54 is of a square structure, and the battery-absorbing nylon block 54 is in clearance fit with the side plate 57.
In summary, the main working process of the battery shell-changing machine is as follows: the empty square battery steel shell is sent to the front section of the shell exchanging channel 30 by the steel shell conveying channel 20 and is sent to the upper shell exchanging station 31 by the shell exchanging channel 30; the die sleeve with the battery inserted therein is conveyed to a lower shell replacing station 11 by a die sleeve conveying channel 10; when the pushing piece 41 is driven to move upwards and pass through the lower shell changing station 11, the battery is pushed out and moved upwards, and finally the battery is pressed into the steel shell of the upper shell changing station 31, so that shell changing is completed; the steel shell after shell replacement is sent to the rear section through the shell replacement channel 30, and is tipped forward in the tipping channel 51 under the cooperation of the battery sucking nylon block 54 and the flange, the battery sucking nylon block 54 pulls the flat swing steel shell to a preset discharging position 511, at the moment, the pushing piece 56 acts and pushes the steel shell into the reversing channel 52, the steel shell passing through the reversing channel 52 is tipped over by 90 degrees again, and finally the steel shell is tipped upside down with the original empty steel shell, so that the subsequent welding of one end of the battery which is not welded is facilitated.
