ATTITUDE ALIGNING DEVICE FOR CYLINDRICAL BATTERY

PURPOSE:To improve production efficiency by providing a stopper at the intersection of a conveyor with the same running speed as the peripheral speed of a star type rotary extracting board. CONSTITUTION:A cylindrical battery 11 is fed to the spindle shaft unit 6 of a rotary drum 1 by a star type rotary feed board 4. The reference mark or connecting line of the battery 11 is detected by a detecting sensor 12, a small motor 23 is rotated to the rotary position set by a control device 10, and a brake is operated as soon as the motor 23 is stopped. A permanent magnet 17 provided at a recess is stronger than a permanent magnet on the holding bed of the unit 6, thus the battery is transferred to the recess of an extracting board 7 at the position in contact with the star type rotary extracting board 7. The battery 11 is transferred to a conveyor belt 19 at the position where the board 7 meets a stopper 13, and it is adsorbed to a frame 15 by the permanent magnet and fed to the next process by a driving pulley 18. The battery 11 can be efficiently manufactured by making the peripheral speed of the board 7 and the running speed of the belt 19 same and making the holding force of the frame 15 larger than that of the magnet 17.
