Abstract
Description

[0002] Theoretically, the battery cell of a lithium battery and the aluminum layer of the aluminum-plastic film covering the battery cell are insulated, that is, the voltage difference between the two is zero. However, during the actual processing, the inner polymer layer of the aluminum-plastic film, such as the PP layer, may be locally damaged, resulting in local conduction (including electron channels and ion channels) between the battery cell and the aluminum layer of the aluminum-plastic film, forming a microbattery, thereby generating a potential difference. The formation of electron channels and ion channels will cause the lithium ions in the battery cell to alloy with the aluminum of the aluminum-plastic film to generate lithium-aluminum alloy, causing local powdering and penetration of the aluminum-plastic film, posing a safety hazard.
[0003] Therefore, lithium batteries need to be tested for side voltage and side resistance before leaving the factory. Currently, the side voltage and side resistance tests of lithium batteries are two steps, that is, after testing one by a first testing device, the second testing device is used to test the other. The two testing steps are incompatible, which not only increases the workload, but also reduces the detection efficiency and accuracy. Summary of the invention

[0048] Optionally, after the double-cutter self-test circuit is turned on, the current resistance value obtained is the double-cutter contact resistance. If the current resistance value is greater than a preset resistance threshold, it is considered contact failure (contact NG), the measurement is stopped, and the battery is discharged from the NG port for retesting. If the current resistance value is less than or equal to the preset resistance threshold, the contact is OK, and other tests can be further performed.
[0049] The resistance threshold value may be 1 ohm.
