Abstract

A secondary battery manufacturing process carrier having a carrier transporting track structure is provided. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier includes: a carrier base; a carrier roller provided at a first side of the carrier base; a rolling member provided at a second side of the carrier base; and a track base on which the carrier base is movably disposed. The carrier base has a first carrier side plate and a second carrier side plate at left and right sides thereof, the first carrier side plate and the second carrier side plate include the carrier roller and the rolling member, respectively, and the carrier roller and the rolling member are configured to be rolled on the track base.

Claims (17)

1. A secondary battery manufacturing process carrier having a carrier transporting track structure, the secondary battery manufacturing process carrier comprising:

a carrier base;

a carrier roller and a rolling member provided on the carrier base;

a track base on which the carrier base is movably disposed, wherein the track base comprises:

a first track plate to which the carrier roller is movably coupled; and

a second track plate to which the rolling member is movably coupled,

wherein a first carrier side plate and a second carrier side plate are respectively disposed at left and right sides of the carrier base, the carrier roller and the rolling member are respectively provided on the first carrier side plate and the second carrier side plate, and the carrier roller and the rolling member are configured to be rolled on the track base and to be contacting the track base, and

wherein the carrier base comprises a lower carrier base plate, a pair of left and right side carrier base plates, and an upper carrier base plate, wherein the lower carrier base plate, the pair of left and right side carrier base plates, and the upper carrier base plate are integrally coupled to each other.

2. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 1 , wherein the track base has first and second track plates parallel to each other in a longitudinal direction thereof, the first track plate has a first track, the second track plate has a second track, and the carrier roller provided on the carrier base has a carrier groove on an outer circumferential surface thereof.

3. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 2 , wherein the carrier roller is rolled in a state in which the carrier groove of the carrier base is engaged with the first track of the track base, and the rolling member of the carrier base is rolled in a state in which an outer circumferential surface thereof is in contact with the second track of the track base.

4. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 3 , wherein the first track is configured in a shape with a V-shaped cross-section and the carrier groove is configured as a V-shaped groove, so that the carrier groove is engaged with the first track.

5. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 3 , wherein a plurality of carrier rollers and a plurality of rolling members are provided on the carrier base.

6. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 2 , wherein the first track includes an upper first track and a lower first track respectively provided at upper and lower ends of the first track plate of the track base, the second track includes an upper second track and a lower second track respectively provided at upper and lower ends of the second track plate of the track base, the carrier roller includes an upper carrier roller and a lower carrier roller disposed in a vertical direction at a first side of the carrier base, and the rolling member includes an upper rolling member and a lower rolling member provided at a second side of the carrier base.

7. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 1 , wherein another base plate is placed on the upper carrier base plate, and wherein the upper carrier base plate has a pinhole allowing a pin to be press-fitted thereinto and the another base plate has a pin insertion hole, so that the another base plate is set on the upper carrier base plate by fitting the pin insertion hole over the pin.

8. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 7 , wherein the upper carrier base plate has a step portion, so that the another base plate is set on the upper carrier base plate by being supported by the step portion.

9. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 1 , wherein each of the first carrier side plate and the second carrier side plate has a setting hole (SH), and each of the left and right side carrier base plates of the carrier base has a fixing hole (FH) corresponding to the setting hole (SH).

10. The secondary battery manufacturing process carrier of claim 1 , further comprising a fixing pin coupled to the track base and the carrier base.
