A battery conveyor device, comprising a base, a plurality of parallel connecting shafts, and a plurality of conveying wheels, wherein the connecting shafts are arranged on the base at intervals; the conveying wheels are arranged on the connecting shafts and each comprises a stator, a rotor, a coil, a pusher, a receiver, a control circuit, and a hub; the stator is sleeved on the connecting shaft and fixed to the connecting shaft; the coil is sleeved outside the stator; the rotor is sleeved outside the coil, and there is a gap between the rotor and the coil; the hub is sleeved outside the rotor, and a first bearing is connected between the hub and the rotor; the pusher is connected to the hub and the rotor; the rotor drives the hub to rotate through the pusher; the receiver is located on the rotor; the control circuit is electrically connected to the coil and the receiver; and when a battery is placed on the hub, the pusher is pressed against the receiver.

2 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 1 , wherein the battery conveyor device further comprises an elastic member; the elastic member and the receiver are both located in a direction opposite to a rotation direction of the pusher; one end of the elastic member is connected to the pusher, and the other end of the elastic member is connected to the rotor; and the receiver is an action switch, and the receiver is located within a moving range of the pusher.

3 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 2 , wherein a groove is formed on the rotor, and the receiver and the elastic member are located in the groove; and one end of the pusher is fixed to the hub, and the other end of the pusher extends into the groove.

4 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 1 , wherein the coil is provided with a sliding rail, and the sliding rail forms a circle peripherally around the coil in a rotation direction of the rotor; and the rotor is fixedly provided with a slipping ring, and the slipping ring slidably abuts against the sliding rail; and the receiver is electrically connected to the slipping ring, the slipping ring is electrically connected to the sliding rail, and the control circuit is electrically connected to the sliding rail.

5 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 1 , wherein a cavity is formed inside the connecting shaft, and a power supply line is provided in the cavity; a plurality of through-holes are formed on the connecting shaft, and the through-holes correspond to the conveying wheels one to one; and the through-holes communicate with the cavity, and the power supply line passes through the through-holes to be electrically connected to the control circuit.

6 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 1 , wherein an annular mounting slot is formed on the stator, the coil is located in the mounting slot, and a second bearing is connected between the stator and the rotor.

7 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 1 , wherein a rubber sleeve is provided on the hub, and the rubber sleeve is sleeved outside the hub.

8 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 1 , wherein a pair of side baffles are provided on the base, the side baffles are located above the conveying wheels, and there is a conveying space between the two side baffles.

9 . The battery conveyor device according to claim 8 , wherein surfaces of the two side baffles are inclined to each other, and the conveying space is trapezoidal.
