Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present application relates to the field of core winding, in particular to a method for feeding a pole piece during winding and a winding device. Background Art

[0002] The winding process of the core winds the pole piece and the separator through a winding assembly.

[0003] In the traditional winding process, the pole piece supplied in the form of a strip is intermittently transported. In order to improve the winding efficiency, the chasing cutting method is often used at present. The pole piece is continuously transported forward, and the feeding assembly and the cutting assembly follow the pole piece until they are synchronized with the pole piece. When the winding assembly winds enough pole pieces, the feeding assembly clamps the next section of the pole piece, the cutting assembly cuts off the pole piece, and then the fully loaded winding assembly unloads or switches to an empty winding assembly. The feeding assembly sends the next section of the pole piece to the winding assembly, and finally the feeding assembly and the cutting assembly reset for the next chasing cut.

[0004] In the traditional winding process, if there is a defect in a certain section of the pole piece, only the entire core containing this section of the pole piece can be removed after winding. In order to reduce waste, the single-winding method is often used at present. An additional single-winding assembly is provided between the cutting assembly and the winding assembly. During normal winding, the single-winding assembly is hidden. When it is detected that there is a defect in the pole piece, the single-winding assembly extends out to receive the pole piece sent by the feeding assembly. After receiving a defective section of the pole piece, the feeding assembly clamps the next section of the pole piece, the cutting assembly cuts off the pole piece, the single-winding assembly is hidden, and the feeding assembly sends the next section of the pole piece to the winding assembly to re-perform the normal winding operation.

[0005] Whether in the traditional chasing cutting method or the single-winding method, when the feeding assembly clamps the next section of the pole piece and the cutting assembly cuts off the tail of the previous section of the pole piece, the feeding assembly will directly take the next section of the pole piece to the winding assembly to start a new winding. During the feeding process, the feeding assembly will approach the cutting assembly, so that the head of the next section of the pole piece passes through the cutting assembly. Since the feeding assembly cannot interfere with the cutting assembly during the feeding process, the distance between the feeding assembly and the cutting assembly when the cutting assembly cuts off the pole piece determines the distance that the feeding assembly can send out the pole piece, and this distance also determines the length of the free section of the head of the pole piece clamped by the feeding assembly.

[0006] At present, when the chasing cutting method and the single-winding method are combined, the problem of feeding failure often occurs. The reason is that during single-winding, the chasing cutting route of the cutting assembly will interfere with the extended single-winding assembly. Therefore, during single-winding, the cutting assembly and the feeding assembly still use fixed cutting. Compared with the starting position during normal chasing cutting, the position of the feeding assembly is closer to the cutting assembly during fixed cutting, so that during the next normal chasing cutting, the stroke of the feeding assembly is not enough to send the pole piece into the winding assembly, resulting in feeding failure.

[0007] To solve this problem, some current winding processes add a compensation action in the single-winding step. That is, after the cutting component cuts off the pole piece, the sheet feeding component does not immediately feed out the next section of the pole piece. Instead, it first releases the pole piece, retreats a compensation distance, and then feeds out the next section of the pole piece. However, this processing method increases the time consumption of the single-winding step, resulting in a decrease in the winding efficiency of the battery cell. Summary of the Invention

[0008] This application aims to solve at least one of the technical problems existing in the prior art. For this reason, this application proposes a pole piece winding and sheet feeding method and a winding device.

[0016] The single winding component extends to the conveying route of the pole piece, and the single winding component winds the defective section of the pole piece;

[0017] When the single winding is completed, the sheet feeding component clamps the head of the qualified section of the pole piece, and the cutting component cuts off the tail of the defective section of the pole piece;

[0018] The single winding component retracts, the cutting component avoids the sheet feeding component, and the sheet feeding component sends the head of the qualified section of the pole piece to the sheet entering component.

[0019] According to the electrode sheet winding and feeding method provided in the present application, at least the following technical effects are achieved: the sheet feeding component indirectly feeds out the defective electrode sheet segment through the sheet feeding component; after the sheet feeding component receives the defective electrode sheet segment, the sheet feeding component retreats to avoid the single roll component, and retreats an additional compensation distance, so that the distance between the sheet feeding component and the cutting component can meet the stroke requirement of the sheet feeding component; the electrode sheet winding and feeding method can avoid sheet feeding failure caused by insufficient stroke of the sheet feeding component; on the other hand, the retreat process of the sheet feeding component is carried out in parallel with the process of the single roll component extending and winding the defective electrode sheet segment, thereby reducing the time consumption of the single roll step; the electrode sheet winding and feeding method can improve the efficiency of battery cell winding.

[0047] According to the pole piece winding and sheet feeding method provided by the present application, it includes:

[0048] Step S100: Detect whether the next section of the pole piece is qualified;

[0049] Step S200: In response to the next section of the pole piece being a qualified pole piece, perform trailing cut winding on the qualified pole piece;

[0050] Step S300: In response to the next section of the pole piece being a defective pole piece, perform single winding on the defective pole piece;

[0051] Further refer to Figure 1 , where Step S300 specifically includes:

[0052] Step S310: The sheet feeding assembly 100 sends the head of the defective pole piece to the sheet feeding-in assembly 600, and the sheet feeding-in assembly 600 is located between the single winding assembly 300 and the winding assembly 400;

[0053] Step S320: The sheet feeding assembly 100 and the cutting assembly 200 avoid the single winding assembly 300, and the sheet feeding assembly 100 retreats by a compensation distance;

[0054] Step S330: The single winding assembly 300 extends to the conveying route of the pole piece, and the single winding assembly 300 winds the defective pole piece;

[0055] Step S340: When single winding is completed, the sheet feeding assembly 100 clamps the head of the qualified pole piece, and the cutting assembly 200 cuts off the tail of the defective pole piece;

[0056] Step S350: The single winding assembly 300 retracts, the cutting assembly 200 avoids the sheet feeding assembly 100, and the sheet feeding assembly 100 sends the head of the qualified pole piece to the sheet feeding-in assembly 600.

[0057] "Front" and "rear" are defined in the conveying direction of the pole piece. The direction same as the conveying direction of the pole piece is the forward direction, and the direction opposite to the conveying direction of the pole piece is the rear direction.

[0058] "The single winding assembly 300 retracts" means that the single winding assembly 300 carries the wound defective pole piece and exits the conveying route of the pole piece to avoid interference with the trailing cut winding.

[0059] In the cell winding process integrating the trailing cut method and the single winding method, there is interference between the route of the cutting assembly 200 and the position of the single winding assembly 300. Therefore, the cutting assembly 200 needs to avoid to enable the single winding assembly 300 to extend. Since the sheet feeding assembly 100 needs to directly feed the sheet to the single winding assembly 300, and the single winding method uses fixed cutting, compared with the starting position during normal trailing cut, the position of the sheet feeding assembly 100 is closer to the cutting assembly 200 during fixed cutting, resulting in the stroke of the sheet feeding assembly 100 being insufficient to send the pole piece into the winding assembly 400 during the next normal trailing cut, leading to sheet feeding failure.

[0060] In the electrode sheet winding and feeding method of the present application, the feeding assembly 100 indirectly feeds out the bad segment electrode sheet through the feeding assembly 600. After the feeding assembly 600 receives the bad segment electrode sheet, the feeding assembly 100 retreats to avoid the single roll assembly 300, and the feeding assembly 100 retreats an additional compensation distance, so that the distance between the feeding assembly 100 and the cutting assembly 200 can meet the travel requirements of the feeding assembly 100. The electrode sheet winding and feeding method can avoid the failure of feeding due to insufficient travel of the feeding assembly. At the same time, the retreat process of the feeding assembly 100 is carried out in parallel with the process of the single roll assembly 300 extending and winding the bad segment electrode sheet, thereby reducing the time consumption of the single roll step. The electrode sheet winding and feeding method can improve the efficiency of battery cell winding.

[0061] It can be understood that in the winding process, the electrode sheets are transported in the form of a material strip, the defective parts in the material strip are called defective segment electrode sheets, and the qualified parts in the material strip are called qualified segment electrode sheets. In step S330, the single-roll component 300 will wind up all the defective segment electrode sheets. Therefore, in the next step, the electrode sheet clamped by the sheet feeding component 100 is a qualified segment electrode sheet, which can be directly sent to the winding component 400 for winding through step S360.

[0062] As before, since the feeding assembly 100 cannot interfere with the cutting assembly 200, the distance that the feeding assembly 100 can feed the pole piece cannot exceed the length of the free section of the pole piece head. The "free section" refers to the portion of the pole piece head that is not clamped by the feeding assembly 100.

[0063] The distance between the sheet-feeding assembly 100 and the cutting assembly 200 after the backward compensation distance is defined as L1, and the distance between the sheet-feeding assembly 100 and the sheet-entering assembly 600 when delivering the qualified segment pole piece is defined as L2. L1 must be greater than L2 to avoid sheet-feeding failure due to insufficient stroke of the sheet-feeding assembly.

[0064] Continue to refer to Figure 2 According to some embodiments of the present application, step S200 specifically includes:

[0065] Step S210: the cutting assembly 200 avoids the sheet feeding assembly 100, and the sheet feeding assembly 100 delivers the head of the qualified segment electrode sheet to the sheet feeding assembly 600;

[0066] Step S220: the sheet feeding assembly 100 retreats to the clamping waiting position, and the cutting assembly 200 retreats to the cutting waiting position;

[0067] Step S230: the sheet feeding assembly 600 delivers the head of the qualified segment of the pole sheet to the winding assembly 400, and the winding assembly 400 winds the qualified segment of the pole sheet;

[0068] Step S240: When the winding is completed, the sheet feeding assembly 100 and the cutting assembly 200 follow the pole piece at the moving speed of the pole piece;

[0069] Step S250: When the speeds of the sheet feeding component 100, the cutting component 200, and the pole piece are synchronized, the sheet feeding component 100 clamps the next section of the pole piece, and the cutting component 200 cuts off the pole piece.

[0070] Next, with reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , during the winding and chasing cutting process, the movement route of the sheet feeding component 100 is defined as the chasing and clamping route, and the movement route of the cutting component 200 is defined as the chasing and cutting route. The chasing and clamping waiting position refers to the waiting position where the sheet feeding component 100 waits to start chasing and clamping during the winding process of the winding component 400. The chasing and cutting waiting position refers to the waiting position where the cutting component 200 waits to start chasing and cutting during the winding process of the winding component 400.

[0071] It can be understood that the chasing cutting and winding of the current pole piece starts from the sheet feeding component 100 clamping the current pole piece and the cutting component 200 cutting off the pole piece between the current pole piece and the previous section of the pole piece. First, sheet feeding is performed. During sheet feeding, the sheet feeding component 100 gradually approaches the cutting component 200, so that the free section at the head of the current pole piece passes through the cutting component 200 until it enters the sheet feeding component 600. Subsequently, the sheet feeding component 100 and the cutting component 200 are reset and wait for the winding component 400 to wind. When the winding is completed, the sheet feeding component 100 performs chasing and clamping, and the cutting component 200 performs chasing and cutting, completing a chasing cutting and winding process. At this time, it is determined whether to perform single winding or chasing cutting and winding according to whether the next section of the pole piece is a qualified section pole piece or a defective section pole piece.

[0072] As before, the chasing and clamping waiting position is the position where the sheet feeding component 100 waits during normal chasing and clamping, and the chasing and cutting waiting position is the position where the cutting component 200 waits during normal chasing and cutting. When the sheet feeding component 100 is at the chasing and clamping waiting position and the cutting component 200 is at the chasing and cutting waiting position, the stroke of the sheet feeding component 100 can of course meet the sheet feeding requirements of the sheet feeding component 100 during the winding and chasing cutting process. Therefore, in some embodiments, in step S320, the sheet feeding component 100 retreats to the chasing and clamping waiting position, and the cutting component 200 retreats to the chasing and cutting waiting position. In this way, when performing step S350, the sheet feeding component 100 and the cutting component 200 can directly reuse their own movement routes during winding and chasing cutting, which helps to simplify the mechanical structure design and program design related to driving the movement of the sheet feeding component 100 and the cutting component 200.

[0073] However, in the chasing method, a normally open component 500 is provided at the chasing waiting position. The normally open component 500 ensures through mechanical limiting that the sheet feeding component 100 at this position can always remain open, preventing the sheet feeding component 100 from accidentally clamping the pole piece during the transportation of the pole piece. If the normally open component 500 exerts an effect on the sheet feeding component 100 after the sheet feeding component 100 retreats to the chasing waiting position, the sheet feeding component 100 will not be able to clamp the qualified section of the pole piece in the subsequent step S340.

[0074] Therefore, in some embodiments, before the sheet feeding component 100 and the cutting component 200 avoid the single winding component 300, the pole piece winding and feeding method further includes: the normally open component 500 at the chasing waiting position avoids the sheet feeding component 100. This enables the sheet feeding component 100 to clamp the qualified section of the pole piece at the chasing waiting position.

[0075] Correspondingly, after the sheet feeding component 100 sends the head of the qualified section of the pole piece to the sheet feeding-in component 600, the pole piece winding and feeding method further includes: the normally open component 500 resets, so that in step S200, the normally open component 500 can normally play the role of keeping the sheet feeding component 100 normally open.

[0076] During the process of the sheet feeding component 100 sending out the qualified section of the pole piece, the cutting component 200 needs to perform corresponding avoidance. In some embodiments, the cutting component 200 moves to the chasing cutting termination position to avoid the sheet feeding component 100.

[0077] It can be understood that when performing the chasing cutting motion to cut the pole piece, the speed of the cutting component 200 is synchronized with the speed of the pole piece. Therefore, after the cutting is completed, the cutting component 200 needs to gradually decelerate and then reverse and accelerate to reset to the chasing cutting waiting position. The chasing cutting termination position refers to the position where the cutting component 200 decelerates to a standstill, that is, the most forward position of the cutting component 200 during the chasing cutting process.

[0078] The cutting component 200 avoiding the sheet feeding component 100 at the chasing cutting termination position can maximize the avoidance effect of the cutting component 200, reduce the free section length required for sheet feeding, and avoid the situation where the free section at the head of the pole piece is too long, causing the pole piece to bend and deform under its own weight, resulting in sheet feeding failure.

[0079] This application also provides a winding device, which at least includes a sheet feeding component 100, a cutting component 200, a single winding component 300, a sheet feeding-in component 600, and a winding component 400 arranged in sequence along the transportation route of the pole piece. The sheet feeding component 100 and the cutting component 200 can move along the transportation route. Taking the transportation route as the reference plane, the single winding component 300 can approach or move away from the reference plane. The winding device is used to implement the pole piece winding and feeding method provided by this application. Figure 3 and Figure 4Shows the layout and operation process of some embodiments of the winding device.

[0080] Specifically, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 , Figure 3 , Figure 4 which respectively show the relative position relationships of various parts in the winding device at step S330 and step S350. In the embodiments shown in Figure 3 and Figure 4 , the sheet feeding assembly 100 includes a first clamping portion 110 and a second clamping portion 120, the first clamping portion 110 and the second clamping portion 120 can approach or separate from each other, the cutting assembly 200 includes a cutter, the single-roll assembly 300 includes a single-roll needle, the winding assembly 400 includes a winding needle, and the sheet feeding-in assembly 600 includes a deviation rectifying roller. The winding device further includes a normally-open assembly 500 which is arranged at the chasing and clamping waiting position. In the figure, labels A, B, C, and D are used in combination with the center line to respectively identify the positions of the chasing and clamping waiting position, the chasing and cutting waiting position, the position when the sheet feeding assembly 100 sends out a qualified section of the pole piece, and the chasing and cutting termination position on the conveying route of the pole piece. It can be understood that the actual mechanical structure is not an ideal mass point, so the "position" actually refers to an area with a certain range. Figure 3 and Figure 4 The reference lines identified by labels A, B, C, and D are selected within the area, and of course, the reference lines can also be set at other positions within the area, as long as the reference lines used for comparison are consistent.

[0081] Figure 3 In , the normally-open assembly 500 is far from the sheet feeding assembly 100, thus releasing the coupling relationship between the normally-open assembly 500 and the sheet feeding assembly 100 to allow the sheet feeding assembly 100 to retreat to the chasing and clamping waiting position. At this time, the distance between the sheet feeding assembly 100 and the cutting assembly 200 is L1. Figure 4 In , when the sheet feeding assembly 100 is at the moment of just sending out a qualified section of the pole piece, the distance between the sheet feeding assembly 100 and the sheet feeding-in assembly 600 is L2, and L1 is greater than L2, thus meeting the sheet feeding requirements. At this time, the normally-open assembly 500 has been reset, so after the sheet feeding assembly 100 retreats to the chasing and clamping waiting position, the normally-open assembly 500 will ensure that the sheet feeding assembly 100 remains open.

[0082] Specifically refer to Figure 5 , in some embodiments, the normally-open assembly 500 includes a driver 510 and a limit plate 520, and the driver 510 can drive the limit plate 520 to approach or separate from the sheet feeding assembly 100. The limit plate 520 can keep the sheet feeding assembly 100 open by limiting the first clamping portion 110. For example, in Figure 5Among them, the sheet feeding assembly 100 includes a first clamping portion 110 and a second clamping portion 120. The first rolling body 111 is installed on the first clamping portion 110. The limiting plate 520 includes a limiting surface, and the limiting surface contacts the first rolling body 111 to limit the first clamping portion 110.

[0083] The normally open assembly 500 includes a connecting plate 530. The connecting plate 530 is installed at the output end of the driver 510. The driver 510 can drive the connecting plate 530 to move in a direction parallel to the conveying route. The connecting plate 530 is installed with rolling bodies.
