Description

This disclosure claims priority to a Chinese patent application filed with the China National Patent Office on September 21, 2023, with application number 202322572398.3, titled "Lifting and Lowering Device," the entire contents of which are incorporated into this disclosure by reference. This disclosure relates to lifting and lowering devices. Taking an automated lithium battery production line as an example, in related technologies, when lifting and lowering battery cells (especially laminated battery cells without adhesive on the separator), the unrestrained sheet of battery cells experiences movement/shifting, affecting its alignment and, consequently, the accuracy of subsequent detection devices, resulting in low production efficiency. This is a side view of a lifting and lowering device according to one embodiment of the present disclosure.Figure 1 is a front view of the clip mechanism of the lifting and lowering device.Figure 1 is a front view of the clamping claw mechanism of the lifting and lowering device shown. To facilitate understanding of this disclosure, the following will provide a more comprehensive description with reference to the relevant drawings. The drawings illustrate preferred embodiments of this disclosure. However, this disclosure is not limited to the embodiments described herein and can be implemented in many different forms. Conversely, the purpose of providing these embodiments is to provide a more complete understanding of the disclosure. It should be explained that when an element is said to be "attached" to another element, it may be directly located to the other element, or an intervening element may be present. When one element is considered to be "connected" to another element, it may be directly connected to the other element, or an intervening element may be present simultaneously. The terms "vertical," "horizontal," "left," "right," and similar expressions used herein are for illustrative purposes only. Unless otherwise defined, all technical and scientific terms used herein have the same meanings as those generally understood by those skilled in the art of the art relating to this disclosure. Terms used in this disclosure are for illustrative purposes of specific embodiments and are not intended to limit the disclosure. The terms "and/or" as used herein include any and all combinations of one or more relatedly listed items. As shown in Figures 1-3, this is a lifting and lowering device 10 according to one embodiment of the present disclosure. This lifting and lowering device 10 includes a clip mechanism 10a and a clamping claw mechanism 10b. The clip mechanism 10a includes a pallet 200 and a first restraint assembly 300 provided on the outer circumference of the pallet 200. The pallet 200 is used to place the material 20 on it. The first restraint assembly 300 has a first restrained state and a first retracted state. In the first restrained state, the first restraint assembly 300 restrains the material 20 located on the pallet 200 to the pallet 200. That is, in the first restrained state, the first restraint assembly 300 does not interfere with lifting the material 20 from the pallet 200. In the first retracted state, the first restraint assembly 300 detaches from the material 20 and is located on the outer circumference of the material 20, releasing the restraint on the material 20 by the first restraint assembly 300. That is, in the first retracted state, the first restraint assembly 300 does not interfere with lifting the material 20 from the pallet 200. The clamping claw mechanism 10b includes a clamping claw assembly 400 and a second restraining assembly 500 provided on the clamping claw assembly 400. The clamping claw assembly 400 is used to lift and lower the material 20 onto the pallet 200. The clamping claw assembly 400 has a gripping state and a detached state. In the gripping state, the clamping claw assembly 400 grips the material 20. In the detached state, the clamping claw assembly 400 detaches from the material 20 and is located on the outer circumference of the material 20, releasing the grip on the material 20 by the clamping claw assembly 400. The second restraining assembly 500 has a second restraining state and a second retracted state. In the second restraining state, the second restraining assembly 500 restrains the material 20 located on the clamping claw assembly 400 to the clamping claw assembly 400. In the second retracted state, the second restraint assembly 500 detaches from the material 20, releasing the restraint on the material 20 by the second restraint assembly 500, and switching the clamp claw assembly 400 from the gripping state to the detached state. The first restraint assembly 300 can be in the first restrained state, and the second restraint assembly 500 can be in the second restrained state simultaneously. That is, the switching between the first restraint state and the first retracted state of the first restraint assembly 300,
