Embodiment 1

[0034] Embodiment 1, a kind of welding method of copper strip, as image 3 shown, including the following steps:

[0035] The first step: place the copper strip to be welded on the conductive metal piece to be welded;

[0036] The second step: place another nickel strip on the copper strip to be welded;

[0037] Step 3: use spot welding equipment to spot weld the nickel strip, and weld the nickel strip, copper strip and the metal parts to be welded together. The welding current for spot welding is 100-150KA, the welding time and pulse width are 1-2 3ms, preferably: welding current 115-135KA, welding time and pulse width 1.5-2.5ms.

[0038] Step 4: Cut off the excess nickel strip at the weld.

Embodiment 2

[0039] Embodiment 2, a lithium battery using copper tabs, such as Figure 4 and Figure 5 As shown, it includes a battery cover plate assembly, a battery case 9, an electrolyte (not labeled in the figure), and a cell unit 8 wound by positive and negative electrodes and separator paper, and a nickel sheet (or nickel strip) 4 . Wherein the battery cover plate assembly includes a pressure plate 1, a cover plate 5, a connector 2 and a sealing insulator 3. The pressure plate 1 can be a copper plate, a steel plate or a conductive alloy plate. One of the negative tabs, the positive tab or the negative tab uses copper tabs 7 , and the sealing insulator 3 is located between the cover plate 5 and the pressure plate 1 to insulate them. The welding method of the copper tab 7 is to overlap the pressing plate 1 located inside the cover plate 5 and the nickel sheet 4 of the copper tab 7 in order and weld them together by spot welding. The welding current of the spot welding is 100-150KA. T...

Abstract

The invention discloses a welding method of a copper strip, comprising the following steps of step 1: the copper strip to be welded is arranged on a metal part to be welded; step 2: a nickel strip is arranged on the copper strip to be welded; step 3: the nickel strip is spot-welded by spot welding equipment, thus welding the nickel strip and the copper strip with the metal part to be welded together. The invention also discloses a welding method of a copper tab in a lithium battery and the lithium battery which is made by the method. The copper strip can be conveniently welded by adopting the invention, the rickets problems when the copper tab is welded with a pressing plate, and the production cost of the lithium battery is reduced.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a copper strip welding method, in particular to a copper tab welding method in a lithium battery and a lithium battery using the copper tab. Background technique [0002] Because copper has good electrical conductivity, it has been widely used in various electrical places. However, copper is difficult to solder, which limits its application to a large extent. For example, a lithium battery is a high-capacity, high-power battery that has been widely used in various small devices, especially mobile phones, laptop computers, portable power tools, and the like. Such as figure 1 As shown, a lithium-ion battery is generally composed of a battery cover assembly, a battery case, an electrolyte, and a battery unit wound by positive and negative electrodes and separator paper. The structure of the battery cover plate assembly includes a pressure plate 1 , a connecting piece 2 , a cover plate 5 and a sealing insulating piece 3 , and th...
