[0073] Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the structure of the battery cell processing system according to an embodiment of the present invention, referring to Figure 1 The embodiment of the present invention provides a battery cell processing system, including a frame and a winding device 100 connected to the frame, a conveying device 200 and a tab bending device 300. The winding device 100 includes a winding mechanism and a tab smoothing mechanism. The winding mechanism includes a winding needle 110 and a winding needle 110 driving assembly 146 for driving the winding needle 110 to rotate. The winding needle 110 is used to wind the pole piece strip 2 and the diaphragm strip 4 to form a winding core 1. The pole piece strip 2 has an inner side and an outer side. When winding, the inner side of the pole piece strip 2 faces the winding needle 110. The tab smoothing mechanism is used to smooth the tab 3 of the winding core 1 toward the end of the winding core 1. The conveying device 200 is used to convey the pole sheet material strip 2 and the diaphragm material strip 4 to the winding needle 110 respectively. The pole tab bending device 300 is arranged on the conveying path of the pole sheet material strip 2. The pole tab bending device 300 is used to bend the pole tab 3 of the pole sheet material strip 2 inward before the pole sheet material strip 2 is rolled. During the winding process, the pole ear bending device 300 can roll and bend the pole ear 3 of the pole sheet material strip 2 during the tape walking process without stopping before winding, and smooth the bent pole ear 3 on the winding needle 110 through the pole ear smoothing mechanism when the pole sheet material strip 2 is wound. The bent pole ear 3 can effectively eliminate the impact on the pole ear 3 at the pole ear smoothing mechanism when the winding core 1 is wound, and the pole ear 3 is bent toward the inner side of the pole sheet material strip 2, which helps the pole ear smoothing mechanism to smooth the pole ear 3 on the same side. After the pole ear 3 is smoothed, it can effectively avoid the undesirable phenomena such as folding, wrinkling, and disorder of the pole ear 3 during the winding process, thereby achieving the purpose of not damaging the pole ear 3, thereby improving the winding quality of the winding core 1, and helping to improve the production efficiency of the battery cell.
[0074] Figures 2 to 7 FIG. 2 shows a schematic diagram of the structure of the tab bending device in some embodiments. Figure 2In some embodiments, the pole tab bending device 300 includes a roller mechanism 320 and a roller clamping mechanism 340. The roller mechanism 320 is used to support the outer side of the pole sheet material strip 2 and convey the pole sheet material strip 2. A die 321 is provided at the position of the pole tab 3 of the pole sheet material strip 2 on the roller mechanism 320. The opening of the die 321 faces the inner side of the pole sheet material strip 2. The roller clamping mechanism 340 corresponds to the position of the die 321 and is used to roll and bend the pole tab 3 located on the die 321. As a result, the pole tab 3 of the pole sheet material strip 2 can be bent toward the inner side of the pole sheet material strip 2. After the pole sheet material strip 2 is rolled into and forms a winding core 1 on the winding needle 110, the pole tab 3 facing the inner side of the pole sheet material strip 2 is bent toward the direction of the winding needle 110, which can effectively avoid folding outward with the rotation of the winding core 1, so that the pole tab smoothing mechanism at the winding device 100 can squeeze the end face of the winding core 1 on the same side to avoid damage to the pole tab 3.
[0075] Reference Figure 2 In some embodiments, the tab bending device 300 further includes a mounting base 310 and a roller clamping mechanism 330. The roller clamping mechanism 330 and the over-rolling mechanism 320 are both arranged on the mounting base 310. The roller clamping mechanism 330 is used to press the pole piece strip 2 onto the over-rolling mechanism 320. The roller clamping mechanism 340 is arranged on the roller clamping mechanism 330. The over-rolling mechanism 320, the roller clamping mechanism 340 and the pole piece strip 2 can move at equal linear speeds. The roller clamping mechanism 330 is located on the side of the over-rolling mechanism 320 facing the inner side of the pole piece strip 2. The roller clamping mechanism 330 can apply pressure from the inner side of the pole piece strip 2, so that the roller clamping mechanism 330 can press the pole piece strip 2 onto the over-rolling mechanism 320. The roller clamping mechanism 340 is arranged on the pressure roller clamping mechanism 330, and the roller clamping mechanism 340 is located at the position of the pressure roller clamping mechanism 330 corresponding to the pole ear 3. When the roller clamping mechanism 340 rolls and bends the pole ear 3 located on the die 321, the pressure roller clamping mechanism 330 and the roller clamping mechanism 340 are in contact with the inner side of the pole sheet material strip 2, and the over-rolling mechanism 320 is in contact with the outer side of the pole sheet material strip 2, so that the pole sheet material strip 2 can drive the over-rolling mechanism 320, the pressure roller clamping mechanism 330 and the roller clamping mechanism 340 to move at the same linear speed during the movement. As a result, the pole ear 3 can be bent without stopping during the running of the pole sheet material strip 2, which helps to eliminate the impact at the bending position of the pole ear 3, thereby achieving the purpose of not damaging the pole ear 3.

It can be understood that the first driving member 331 can drive the first roller 333 to move downward to press the inner side of the pole piece strip 2, and the roller mechanism 320 supports the outer side of the pole piece strip 2. When the pole piece strip 2 moves, the pole piece strip 2 drives the roller mechanism 320 and the first roller 333 to rotate synchronously, so that the first roller 333 and the roller mechanism 320 rotate at the same linear speed, and the pressure roller clamping mechanism 330, the roller clamping mechanism 340 and the pole piece strip 2 move at the same linear speed, thereby making the contact surface between the roller mechanism 320, the first roller 333 and the pole piece strip 2 able to rotate at the same linear speed.

The roller mechanism 320 supports the outer side of the pole piece strip 2. The punch 3431 moves downward to press the pole ear 3 into the die 321. When the pole piece strip 2 moves, the pole piece strip 2 drives the roller mechanism 320 and the first roller 3 33 rotates synchronously, so that the first roller 333 and the roller mechanism 320 rotate at the same linear speed, and the second roller 343 rotates coaxially with the first roller 333 through the first connecting member 342. Driven by the pole piece material strip 2, the first roller 333, the second roller 343 and the roller mechanism 320 rotate at the same linear speed, so that the pole piece material strip 2 does not stop during the tape walking process and can bend the pole ear 3, thereby eliminating the impact on the bending position of the pole ear 3, thereby achieving the purpose of not damaging the pole ear 3.

When the pole piece material strip 2 moves, the pole piece material strip 2 drives the roller mechanism 320 to rotate, and the roller mechanism 320 drives the first roller 333 to rotate synchronously, and the second roller 343 rotates synchronously with the roller mechanism 320 through the transmission member 345, so that the first roller 333, the second roller 343 and the roller mechanism 320 rotate at the same linear speed, and the second driving member 341 drives the second roller 343 to press the pole ear 3 in the vertical downward direction, so that the second roller 343 can roll and bend the pole ear 3 located between the punch 3431 and the die 321, so that the pole piece material strip 2 can bend the pole ear 3 without stopping during the belt walking process, eliminate the impact on the bending position of the pole ear 3, and thus achieve the purpose of not damaging the pole ear 3.
[0080] It should be noted that, in some embodiments, the first driving member 331 and the second driving member 341 are both cylinders (not shown in the figure) or motors (not shown in the figure). It is understandable that the cylinder can quickly drive the output end and can provide sufficient downward pressure for the first roller 333 and the second roller 343, so that the first roller 333, the second roller 343 and the roller mechanism 320 can move at the same linear speed through the friction force with the pole piece strip 2. The motor can stably drive the output end and can provide stable downward pressure for the first roller 333 and the second roller 343.

It should be noted that the shapes of the male mold 3431, the female mold 321 and the tab 3 in the above examples can be a circle, an inverted triangle or an inverted trapezoid, just to better illustrate that the male mold 3431 and the female mold 321 have the characteristics of being customized according to the shape of the tab 3, rather than indicating or implying that the shapes of the male mold 3431, the female mold 321 and the tab 3 can only be a circle, an inverted triangle and an inverted trapezoid, and therefore cannot be understood as a limitation of the present invention.
[0083] In some embodiments, tensioning rollers 250 are provided on one or both sides of the pole tab bending device 300 along the conveying path of the pole sheet strip 2, which are used to tension the pole sheet strip 2 passing through the pole tab bending device 300 to prevent the pole sheet strip 2 from loosening and causing wrinkles, which would affect the bending of the pole tab 3 and the conveying of the pole sheet strip 2.
[0084] Figures 8 to 14 Schematic diagram of the tab smoothing mechanism in some embodiments is shown. Figures 8 to 11In some embodiments, the tab smoothing mechanism includes a bracket 120 and a first guide mechanism 130. The bracket 120 is connected to the frame. The bracket 120 is provided with a mounting portion. The first guide mechanism 130 includes a fixing member 131. The fixing member 131 is located at the protruding end of the tab 3 of the winding core 1 and is connected to the mounting portion. Along the circumference of the winding needle 110, the fixing member 131 includes a feeding end 132 and a discharging end 133. The tab 3 of the winding core 1 can enter between the fixing member 131 and the end of the winding core 1 from the feeding end 132 and move out from the discharging end 133 as the winding needle 110 rotates. The fixing member 131 is used to smooth the tab 3 of the winding core 1 toward the end of the winding core 1.
[0085] Among them, the fixing part 131 has a guide surface 134 on the side facing the pole ear 3, thereby, a channel for the pole ear 3 to pass through is formed between the guide surface 134 and the end of the winding core 1 with the pole ear 3, and the pole ear 3 can move relative to the fixing part 131 as the winding core 1 is wound, so that it can enter the channel from the feed end 132 and move out of the channel from the discharge end 133.
[0086] Reference Fig.11 In some embodiments, the distance between the guide surface 134 and the end of the winding core 1 gradually decreases from the feed end 132 to the discharge end 133. Therefore, the guide surface 134 can gradually squeeze the pole ear 3 toward the end of the winding core 1 while the pole ear 3 moves in the channel until the pole ear 3 moves out from the discharge end 133. The pole ear 3 squeezed by the guide surface 134 can be bent toward the end surface of the winding core 1. Therefore, the guide surface 134 can smooth the pole ear 3 toward the end of the winding core 1 during winding, which can avoid the undesirable phenomena such as folding, wrinkling, and disorder of the pole ear 3 during winding, effectively avoid damage to the pole ear 3, and thus help improve the winding quality of the winding core 1. In addition, the pole ear smoothing mechanism can smooth the pole ear 3 of the winding core 1 while the pole piece is being wound. Therefore, when the winding of the winding core 1 is completed, the pole ear 3 at the end of the winding core 1 is also smoothed, thereby eliminating the subsequent smoothing process.
[0087] In addition, in order to improve the production efficiency of the battery cell, the currently commonly used method is to increase the winding speed of the winding machine, that is, to increase the rotation speed of the winding needle 110. However, as the winding speed increases, the pole lug 3 wound on the winding needle 110 is very likely to be turned outward, disordered, or interfere with the pole lug 3 to be wound due to centrifugal force, thereby affecting the quality of the battery cell. The pole lug smoothing mechanism of the embodiment of the present application can smooth the pole lug 3 wound on the winding needle 110, and its smoothing effect can effectively avoid the above-mentioned problems caused by the centrifugal force of the pole lug 3 during the winding process. Therefore, the rotation speed of the winding needle 110 can be further increased to a certain extent, thereby helping to improve the winding efficiency and quality.
[0088] Reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9In the above embodiment, the guide surface 134 of the fixing member 131 can cover a part of the moving path of the pole tab 3, so that the pole tab 3 wound on the winding needle 110 can be gradually smoothed when passing the guide surface 134. It should be noted that the size of the fixing member 131 from the feed end 132 to the discharge end 133 can be reasonably configured based on the rotation speed of the winding needle 110, the degree of downward pressure of the pole tab 3, and the thickness of the winding core 1 to be wound, so as to ensure that the pole tab 3 can be gradually pressed down toward the end of the winding core 1 and smoothed in an appropriate movement distance, and avoid a large degree of compression of the pole tab 3 in an overly short movement distance. If the dimension of the fixing member 131 from the feed end 132 to the discharge end 133 is too short, the portion of the guide surface 134 covering the moving path of the pole lug 3 is too short, and the distance the pole lug 3 passes through the guide surface 134 during winding is too short. As a result, the degree of squeezing of the pole lug 3 per unit distance (i.e., the distance the pole lug 3 is squeezed toward the end of the winding core 1) is too large, and it is difficult to ensure the smoothing effect, and the pole lug 3 is easily damaged. In the tab smoothing mechanism of the present embodiment, the feed end 132 and the discharge end 133 of the fixing member 131 are respectively located on both sides of the winding needle 110, so that the channel between the guide surface 134 and the end of the winding core 1 extends to both sides of the circumference of the winding needle 110, ensuring that the channel has an appropriate length. Therefore, the tab 3 wound on the winding needle 110 enters the channel from the feed end 132 on one side of the winding needle 110, and is gradually squeezed toward the end of the winding core 1 by the guide surface 134 in the channel as the winding needle 110 rotates, and then moves out of the channel from the discharge end 133 on the other side of the winding needle 110, which can ensure the smoothing effect of the tab 3.
[0089] Reference Fig.12 In the above embodiment, the fixing member 131 is in a fan-shaped structure with the axis of the winding needle 110 as the central axis, which can adapt to the movement path of the pole ear 3 wound on the winding needle 110. A slot for inserting the winding needle 110 is provided on the inner side of the fixing member 131 to avoid interference. The outer radius of the fixing member 131 is not less than the maximum radius of the winding core 1 to be wound, so that the pole ear 3 from the inner side to the outer side of the winding core 1 can be smoothed during the entire winding process of the winding core 1.
[0090] Reference Fig. 9 and Fig.12In some embodiments of the tab smoothing mechanism, along the moving path of the tab 3, the thickness of the fixing member 131 gradually increases from the feed end 132 to the discharge end 133, wherein the fixing member 131 can be connected to the mounting portion of the bracket 120 through the side away from the guide surface 134, or connected to the mounting portion through a connecting member, that is, the first guide mechanism 130 can also include a connecting member, the connecting member is connected to the mounting portion and the side of the fixing member 131 away from the tab 3, therefore, the connection position of the connecting member can be reasonably set according to the position of the winding needle 110 and the thickness of the winding core 1 to be wound, so as to ensure that the guiding surface 134 of the fixing member 131 corresponds to the end of the winding core 1. The fixing member 131 can adopt a design similar to that of the Archimedean spiral to facilitate the processing of the fixing member 131. After assembly, due to the change in thickness, the side of the fixing member 131 facing the core 1 gradually approaches the end of the core 1 from the feed end 132 to the discharge end 133, that is, the distance between the surface of the fixing member 131 facing the core 1 and the end of the core 1 decreases from the feed end 132 along the movement path of the pole lug 3 to the discharge end 133, thereby forming the above-mentioned guide surface 134, and a channel with a size gradually decreasing along the extending direction of the pole lug 3 is formed between the guide surface 134 and the end of the core 1, so that the end surface of the pole lug 3 facing the core 1 can be gradually pressed down to achieve the smoothing of the pole lug 3.
[0091] Reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9In some embodiments, the tab smoothing mechanism further includes a second guide mechanism 140, which includes a movable member 141 and a drive assembly 146. The movable member 141 is arranged on one side of the winding needle 110 corresponding to the end of the winding core 1. The movable member 141 includes a connecting portion 142 and a guiding portion 143. The connecting portion 142 is connected to the mounting portion. The guiding portion 143 is located on one side of the feeding end 132. The guiding portion 143 can be connected between the winding core 1 wound on the winding needle 110 and the winding core 1 to be wound on the winding needle 110. The joint 150 of the rolled-in pole piece strip 2 is shielded between the pole lug 3 rolled on the winding needle 110 and the pole lug 3 on the pole piece strip 2 to be rolled, which can effectively avoid the mutual interference between the pole lug 3 of the winding core 1 rolled on the winding needle 110 and the pole lug 3 to be rolled. The driving component 146 is used to drive the movable part 141 to move relative to the fixed part 131, so that the guide part 143 remains located at the joint 150 of the winding core 1 rolled on the winding needle 110 and the pole piece strip 2 to be rolled. As the thickness of the winding core 1 gradually becomes thicker, the driving component 146 drives the movable part 141 to move relative to the fixed part 131 so that the guide part 143 remains shielded between the pole lug 3 rolled on the winding core 1 and the pole lug 3 to be rolled. As the winding core 1 is wound layer by layer, the shielding of the guide part 143 can ensure that the pole lug 3 on the winding core 1 and the pole lug 3 to be rolled do not interfere with each other during winding. During winding, each layer of the pole lugs 3 on the core 1 enters the channel between the guide surface 134 and the end of the core 1 from the feed end 132 of the fixing member 131. When the core 1 is wound until the pole lugs 3 are moved out from the discharge end 133 of the fixing member 131, the pole lugs 3 of the same layer on the core 1 are squeezed toward the end of the core 1 by the guide surface 134, so that each pole lug 3 and the end of the core 1 are at the same set angle, that is, the pole lugs 3 are bent at the same angle toward the winding needle 110, so that the pole lugs 3 of different layers do not interfere with each other, thereby avoiding collision between the pole lugs 3 of different layers, resulting in defects such as disorder and folding of the pole lugs 3, thereby ensuring orderly stratification of the pole lugs 3.
[0092] Reference Fig. 9 and Fig.13 In some embodiments, the guide portion 143 of the movable member 141 has a guide edge 144, which is parallel to the pole sheet strip 2 to be wound, and one end of the guide edge 144 is located at the joint 150. The guide edge 144 is used to support the pole ear 3 on the side of the pole ear 3 of the pole sheet strip 2 facing the winding needle 110. The guide edge 144 parallel to the pole sheet strip 2 can simultaneously support multiple pole ears 3 on the pole sheet strip 2, thereby separating the pole ears 3 on the pole sheet strip 2 from the pole ears 3 that have been wound on the winding needle 110, avoiding mutual collision and damage of the two parts of the pole ears 3 during the winding process.
[0093] Reference Fig. 9 and Fig.13In some embodiments, the guide portion 143 has a shielding surface 145 on one side of the end portion of the winding core 1, and the shielding surface 145 is located between the pole lug 3 of the winding core 1 and the pole lug 3 of the pole sheet strip 2 to be wound, and can shield the pole lug 3 on the winding core 1 to avoid interference. The shielding surface 145 can be an inclined surface or an arc surface, and gradually moves away from the end portion of the winding core 1 toward the direction of the outer pole lug 3, which can effectively avoid the pole lug 3 on the winding core 1 and avoid collision.
[0094] Reference Fig.14 During the winding process of the winding needle 110, there is a joint 150 between the outer layer of the winding core 1 wound on the winding needle 110 and the pole piece strip 2 to be wound, that is, the position where the pole piece strip 2 is wound into the winding core 1. As the winding continues, the thickness of the winding core 1 gradually increases, and the position of the joint 150 also changes continuously. Under the premise that the conveying path of the pole piece strip 2 remains unchanged, the joint 150 where the pole piece strip 2 is wound into the winding core 1 changes from the inner layer of the winding core 1 to the outer side along a set curved path. For the convenience of explanation, Figure 5 The diagram shows the joint 150 where the pole piece strip 2 is wound into the winding core 1 when the thickness of the winding core 1 is different, and a position variation curve 151 of the joint 150 is obtained by connecting each joint 150 with a curve.
[0095] Reference Figure 8 , Fig. 9 and Fig.14 In the pole ear smoothing mechanism of the embodiment of the present application, the driving component 146 may include a driving element and a connecting plate 147, the connecting plate 147 is connected to the mounting portion, the connecting plate 147 is provided with a guide groove 148, the connecting portion 142 of the movable member 141 is connected with a guide column 149, the guide column 149 is penetrated in the guide groove 148 and can move along the guide groove 148, the driving element is used to drive the connecting portion 142 to move, the guide groove 148 is used to limit the moving path of the guide column 149, and as driven by the driving element, the guide column 149 moves along the guide groove 148, which can drive the movable member 141 to move relative to the winding needle 110 according to the set path, and the guide portion 143 is maintained at the junction 150 between the winding core 1 and the pole sheet strip 2 to be wound, shielding between the pole ear 3 of the winding core 1 and the pole ear 3 on the pole sheet strip 2. Among them, the guide groove 148 has a first end and a second end, and the distance between the first end and the winding needle 110 is smaller than the distance between the second end and the winding needle 110. Therefore, the movement of the guide column 149 along the guide groove 148 can change the distance between the guide part 143 and the winding needle 110, that is, change the distance between the guide part 143 and the winding core 1 wound on the winding needle 110, so as to move the guide part 143 to the above-mentioned joint 150 accordingly as the winding core 1 becomes thicker.
[0096] Reference Figure 8 and Fig. 9In some embodiments, the guide groove 148 on the connecting plate 147 may be arc-shaped, and the concave arc side of the guide groove 148 faces away from the winding needle 110, so that when the guide column 149 moves along the guide groove 148, the guide portion 143 can be moved accordingly along the arc path, so that it can move accordingly with the position change of the above-mentioned joint 150. The curvature of the guide groove 148 can be set to be consistent with the curvature of the curve connected to the above-mentioned joint 150. At this time, it is only necessary to drive the movable member 141 to move along the guide groove 148 to ensure that one end of the guide portion 143 moves with the position change of the joint point. In addition, since the speed of winding the pole piece strip 2 is constant, the rate of change of the inclination angle of the pole piece strip 2 is also constant, and the guide edge 144 of the guide portion 143 can remain parallel to the pole piece strip 2 to be wound and can support the pole ear 3 of the pole piece strip 2.
[0097] A conventional linear motion mechanism can be used to drive the movable part 141 to move relative to the connecting plate 147 along the guide groove 148. For example, the conventional linear Indian mechanism includes a synchronous belt mechanism, a gear rack mechanism, a screw module mechanism or a cylinder mechanism. The driving assembly 146 of this embodiment includes a driving element, a gear 1461 and a rack 1462. The rack 1462 is fixedly connected to the movable part 141, and the gear 1461 is connected to the driving element. The gear 1461 is meshed with the rack 1462 to form a gear rack mechanism. The driving element is used to drive the gear 1461 to rotate, so that the rack 1462 drives the movable part 141 to move. The mechanism is simple, reliable and easy to implement.
[0098] The winding core 1 is usually formed by winding the positive electrode sheet and the negative electrode sheet, and a separator is provided between each layer of the electrode sheet. The electrode sheet strip 2 of the above embodiment may include a positive electrode sheet strip 2 and a negative electrode sheet strip 2. Figure 1In some embodiments of the present invention, the conveying device 200 includes a positive electrode sheet conveying mechanism 210, a negative electrode sheet conveying mechanism 220, a first diaphragm conveying mechanism 230 and a second diaphragm conveying mechanism 240 connected to the frame. The positive electrode sheet conveying mechanism 210 is used to convey the positive electrode sheet material strip 2 to the winding needle 110, and the negative electrode sheet conveying mechanism 220 is used to convey the negative electrode sheet material strip 2 to the winding needle 110. The positive electrode tabs 3 on the positive electrode sheet material strip 2 and the negative electrode tabs 3 on the negative electrode sheet material strip 2 are respectively oriented in opposite directions along the axial direction of the winding needle 110, and the positive electrode tabs 3 and the negative electrode tabs 3 wound on the winding needle 110 are respectively oriented toward the two ends of the winding core 1. The first diaphragm conveying mechanism 230 is used to convey the diaphragm material strip 4 to the winding needle 110 between the positive electrode sheet material strip 2 and the negative electrode sheet material strip 2, and the second diaphragm conveying mechanism 240 is used to convey the diaphragm material strip 4 to the winding needle 110 between the electrode sheet material strip 2 and the winding needle 110. The positive electrode sheet conveying mechanism 210, the negative electrode sheet conveying mechanism 220, the first separator conveying mechanism 230 and the second separator conveying mechanism 240 can adopt conventional unwinding mechanisms, and the positive electrode sheet material strip 2, the negative electrode sheet material strip 2 and the separator material strip 4 are arranged in the unwinding mechanism as rolled materials, and unwinding can be performed by pulling out one end of the roll, and unwinding can be performed continuously by conveying toward the conveyor roller, or by winding and pulling the winding needle 110. The conveying device 200 can be provided with a roller on the conveying path between each conveying mechanism and the winding needle 110, so as to orderly distribute and convey each material strip.
[0099] Based on the above embodiment, the winding needle 110 is used to wind the positive electrode sheet material strip 2, the negative electrode sheet material strip 2 and the separator material strip 4 to form a winding core 1. The positive electrode sheet material strip 2 and the negative electrode sheet material strip 2 have an inner side and an outer side respectively. When winding, the inner side of the positive electrode sheet material strip 2 and the negative electrode sheet material strip 2 faces the winding needle 110. A tab bending device 300 is provided on the conveying path of the positive electrode sheet material strip 2, which is used to bend the positive electrode tab 3 toward the inner side of the positive electrode sheet material strip 2. A tab bending device 300 is also provided on the conveying path of the negative electrode sheet material strip 2, which is used to bend the negative electrode tab 3 toward the inner side of the negative electrode sheet material strip 2. The positions of the positive electrode sheet material strip 2 and the negative electrode sheet material strip 2 of the above embodiment can be swapped. The winding device 100 is provided with tab smoothing mechanisms corresponding to the two ends of the winding core 1, which are used to smooth the positive tab 3 and the negative tab 3 at both ends of the winding core 1 toward the end of the winding core 1. As a result, the positive electrode tab 3 and the negative electrode tab 3 can be bent and smoothed online to avoid damage.
[0100] As can be seen from the above, in the battery cell processing system of the embodiment of the present application, the pole piece strip 2 is conveyed by the conveying device 200, and the pole lug 3 of the pole piece strip 2 is bent inwardly by the pole lug bending device 300 on the conveying path of the pole piece strip 2, so that when the pole piece strip 2 is wound by the winding needle 110 at the winding device 100, the pole lug smoothing mechanism can smooth the pole lug 3 of the winding core 1 wound on the winding needle 110 to avoid damage to the pole lug 3, and in some embodiments, the pole lug 3 of the pole piece strip 2 to be wound can also be separated from the pole lug 3 of the winding core 1 to avoid interference, thereby facilitating the orderly stratification of the pole lug 3 on the winding core 1. In this way, the online bending and smoothing of the pole lug 3 is achieved when the pole piece is wound, which can effectively avoid damage to the pole lug 3 during the winding process, thereby helping to improve the processing efficiency and quality of the battery cell. In some embodiments, the tab 3 smoothing device can also separate the tabs 3 of the pole sheet strip 2 to be wound from the tabs 3 of the winding core 1 to avoid interference, thereby facilitating orderly layering of the tabs 3 on the winding core 1. After winding is completed, the subsequent smoothing process after unloading the winding core 1 can be omitted.
[0101] The battery cell processing system may also be provided with a controller and a sensor (not shown in the figure). The controller is communicatively connected with the winding needle 110 drive assembly 146 and the sensor. The sensor is used to detect the thickness of the winding core 1 on the winding needle 110, and generates a sensing signal when the winding core 1 reaches the set thickness. The controller receives the sensing signal and instructs the winding needle 110 to stop winding. At this time, the pole piece strip 2 can be cut so that the winding core 1 can be discharged to the next processing step.
[0102] The embodiments of the present invention are described in detail above in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, but the present invention is not limited to the above embodiments. Various changes can be made within the knowledge of ordinary technicians in the relevant technical field without departing from the purpose of the present invention. In addition, the embodiments of the present invention and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict.
