Structural Optimization and Finite Element Analysis of Swing Arm Plate Suction Device for Battery Packer

Abstract

Aiming at the problem that the side mounting plate and the connecting plate of the swing arm type polar plate suction device in the upper plate mechanism of the battery pack machine are thick, Solidworks is used to optimize the structure of the upper plate mechanism, and Ansys finite element analysis software is used to carry out multi-objective optimization on the optimized side mounting plate and the connecting plate. The results show that adding two chamfers to the side mounting and adding a round corner to the corner of the connecting plate not only effectively reduces the weight and maximum equivalent stress of the plate suction device and solves the problem of stress concentration, but also obviously improves the working precision and production efficiency of the lead-acid battery pack machine.
