Method and device for laser-welding foil and lug

Abstract

The invention discloses a method and device for laser-welding foil and a lug. The method comprises the following steps of taking at least one layer of the foil as a laser absorbing surface to put in front of the lug; adsorbing or pressing the foil and the lug together; arranging a laser focus on the lug; and welding the foil and the lug. The method adopts non-contact type laser welding to replaceconventional ultrasonic contact type welding, so that the foil and the lug are not affected by external force, and processing is stable. Laser processing efficiency is high, and multi-pulse light spots of laser can be adopted for process.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the field of lithium battery production, in particular to a method and device for laser welding foil and tabs. Background technique [0002] In the process of welding tabs of lithium-ion battery pole pieces and foils, the traditional welding method is ultrasonic welding, but ultrasonic welding of foils and tabs has several very difficult problems: serious virtual welding (it will also cause detachment after a long time) Welding phenomenon), too large penetration burrs, the tension between the foil and the lug cannot be guaranteed stably and effectively, the discharge current is not enough during the formation discharge process, and the resistance is too large, etc. These unavoidable technical problems will cause trouble to the subsequent process and have a great impact on the production and use of the entire battery. [0003] When the ultrasonic wave acts on the contact surface of the material, it will generate tens of thousan...

Problems solved by technology

[0002] In the process of welding tabs of lithium-ion battery pole pieces and foils, the traditional welding method is ultrasonic welding, but ultrasonic welding of foils and tabs has several very difficult problems: serious virtual welding (it will also cause detachment after a long time) Welding phenomenon), welding penetration burr is too large, the tension between the foil and the tab cannot be guaranteed stably and effectively, the discharge current is not enough during the formation discharge process, the resistance is too large, etc.

Ultrasonic welding is a material contact processing. The contact area between the welding head and the welding seat, the material, the contact time, parallelism, flatness and other parameters will affect the welding process effect, so it is impossible to ensure stable processing between materials. It is very easy to produce solder joints that are too small, virtual soldering, missing soldering, etc.

And because of the contact processing, the service life of the welding head and the welding seat is relatively short, and the continuous consumption cost is high
