Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the field of battery processing equipment, and in particular to a device for detecting voltage at a cut-off ear. Background Art
[0002] During battery production, the battery tabs need to be punched and various performance tests need to be performed.

[0043] The tab shaping mechanism 3 flattens the tabs and top sealing edges of the battery, preparing for subsequent mechanisms.
[0044] The tab shaping mechanism 3 includes a first stand 31, a first Z-axis drive device 32, a first mounting seat 33, a tab shaping assembly 34, a top edge flattening assembly 35 and a first tab support assembly 36; the first tab support assembly 36 is installed at the lower part of the first stand 31, and the first tab support assembly 36 includes a first seat body 361, a first support block 363 driving cylinder 362 and a first support block 363; the first support block 363 driving cylinder 362 is fixed to the first stand 31 through the first seat body 361; The first support block 363 is installed at the power output end of the first support block 363 driving cylinder 362; the first support block 363 is used to support the two tabs of the battery; the first mounting seat 33 can be slidably installed on the first stand 31 and is located above the first tab support assembly 36; the first Z-axis drive device 32 is installed above the first stand 31 and the power output end is connected to the first mounting seat 33 to drive the first mounting seat 33 to move up and down; the tab shaping assembly 34 is installed on the first mounting seat 33, including a first tab shaping assembly 34 arranged on the first stand A scraper 341 above a tab support assembly 36 and a scraper driving cylinder 342 mounted on a first mounting seat 33 for driving the scraper 341 to move forward and backward; the top edge flattening assembly 35 includes two first pressing blocks 351 arranged above the scraper 341 and a first pressing block driving cylinder 352 mounted on the first mounting seat 33 for driving the two first pressing blocks 351 to move up and down; the tab shaping mechanism 3 needs to flatten the two tabs and flatten the left and right sides of the top edge. When working, the first support block 363 drives the cylinder 362 The first support block 363 is driven to move upward to support the pole ear and the top sealing edge of the battery, and then the first Z-axis drive device 32 drives the first mounting seat 33 to move downward, so that the scraper 341 is pressed on the pole ear, and then the scraper drive cylinder 342 drives the scraper 341 to move backward to scrape the two pole ears flat, and the first pressing block driving cylinder 352 then drives the two first pressing blocks 351 to move downward, and the two first pressing blocks 351 are pressed on the top sealing edge, thereby shaping the pole ear and the top sealing edge of the battery, and each driving device is reset to prepare for the next processing.
[0045] The first mounting seat 33 includes a back plate 331 slidably connected to the first stand 31, a bottom plate 332 installed at the bottom of the back plate 331, a top plate 333 installed at the top of the back plate 331, and two side plates 334 installed at the bottom plate 332 and the left and right sides of the top; the pole ear shaping assembly 34 also includes a sliding seat 343, a connecting member 344 and a first spring 345; the sliding seat 343 is slidably connected above the bottom plate 332; the upper surface of the connecting member 344 contacts the bottom surface of the top plate 333; the middle part of the connecting member 344 contacts the sliding seat 343 Hinged; the rear part of the connecting member 344 is movably connected to the bottom plate 332 through the first spring 345; the scraper 341 is installed at the bottom of the front end of the connecting member 344; the first pressure block driving cylinder 352 is installed above the top plate 333; the connecting member 344 and the sliding seat 343 are elastically connected.

[0046] The CCD camera mechanism 4 takes a photo to position the battery's tabs; detects the position and length of the two tabs of the battery. If the length of the tabs is not within the set range, no subsequent processing will be performed, and it is determined that the tab length is NG, and a signal is transmitted to the first tab punching mechanism 5 and the second tab punching mechanism 6. Because the battery's tabs have been shaped and the position of the battery relative to the placement seat 11 remains unchanged, only one photo positioning is required, and no re-positioning is required for subsequent processing.
[0047] The first tab punching mechanism 5 and the second tab punching mechanism 6 have the same structure and are used for punching the positive and negative tabs of the battery respectively. The tabs of the battery are punched at different stations to improve work efficiency.

The second Z-axis driving device 53 drives the first mounting plate 54 to move upward, and the positive pole ear is located above the blanking hole 5611 and contacts the lower cutter 562. The upper cutter driving cylinder 551 drives the upper cutter seat 553 to move downward. When the second pressing block 556 contacts the lower cutter seat 561, the second pressing block 556 moves upward to compress the second spring 555, and the upper cutter seat 553 continues to move downward, driving the upper and lower cutters 562 to pass through the knife hole 5561 of the second pressing block 556 to punch the positive pole ear.

During processing, the positive ear of the battery is first supported by the second ear support component 72, and the third pressing block driving cylinder 7321 then drives the pressing block to press down on the positive ear. The Y-axis pushing component 741 drives the Z-axis driving component to move forward, so that the cutter 7433 on the cutter component 743 contacts the top sealing edge. The position of the top sealing edge cut by the cutter 7433 corresponds to the position where the top sealing edge flattening component 35 presses the top sealing edge. The cutter component 743 is then driven downward by the Z-axis pushing component 742 to cut the top sealing edge.

[0057] The working principle of this embodiment:
[0058] 1) The loading and positioning mechanism 2 scans and detects the battery. If the scan is OK, the battery is transported to the placement seat 11 and positioned by the fine positioning device 23. The battery is clamped by the clamp 12 and prepared for subsequent processing. If the scan is NG, the battery is transported to the placement seat 11 and clamped by the clamp 12, and no subsequent processing is performed.
[0059] 2) The turntable 1 rotates, and the batteries that have passed the code scanning inspection are transported to the tab shaping mechanism 3, which flattens the tabs of the batteries and flattens both sides of the top sealing edge;
[0060] 3) After the turntable 1 rotates and the tab shaping is completed, the battery passes through the CCD camera mechanism 4, which takes a photo of the tab of the battery and detects the position and length of the two tabs of the battery. If the tab length is not within the set range, it is judged that the tab length is NG and no further processing is performed. If the tab length is OK, the tab position signal is transmitted to the first tab punching mechanism 5 and the second tab punching mechanism 6;
[0061] 4) The turntable 1 rotates, and after the battery with a tab length of OK is photographed and positioned, it is transported to the first tab punching mechanism 5. According to the battery tab position signal transmitted by the CCD camera mechanism 4, the X-axis driving slide 51 drives the second stand 52 to move left and right, thereby adjusting the left and right positions of the upper cutter 554 and the lower cutter 562 to match the position of the battery tab. After the position is adjusted, the positive tab punching can be performed;
[0062] 5) The turntable 1 rotates, and after the positive electrode ear is punched, it is transported to the second electrode ear punching mechanism 6 for negative electrode ear punching. The principle of negative electrode ear punching is the same as that of positive electrode ear punching;
[0063] 6) The turntable 1 rotates, and the battery is transported to the edge voltage detection mechanism 7, which detects the edge voltage of the battery. The detection results are divided into edge voltage NG and edge voltage OK. Batteries with edge voltage NG will not be tested later;
[0064] 7) The turntable 1 rotates, and the battery is transported to the voltage internal resistance testing mechanism 8; the test results are also divided into voltage internal resistance NG and voltage internal resistance OK;
[0065] 8) The turntable 1 rotates, and the batteries are transported to the unloading classification mechanism 9. The batteries that are NG in code scanning, NG in tab length, NG in side voltage, and NG in voltage internal resistance are classified and placed on four groups of NG placement racks 94. Batteries that are OK in all processes are placed on the unloading conveyor belt 95 and sent out.
