[0046] Lithium-ion batteries are one of the most important power components in new energy vehicles and other products. They are a relatively recent development with huge demand. In current technology, the cell forming process for power batteries requires cutting the positive and negative electrode plates.
[0047] Traditional die-cutting methods require the use of die-cutting to shape the tabs and electrodes when cutting positive and negative electrode sheets. During the processing of the tabs and electrodes, a single galvanometer is usually used to cut the electrode sheet. However, the processing area is limited by the single galvanometer. Due to the different working modes and cutting paths of each galvanometer, the tabs and electrodes are easily cut separately, thereby reducing the cutting efficiency of the electrode sheet and the product capacity.
[0048] To address the aforementioned issues, this embodiment proposes an electrode flying cutting device, method, computer equipment, and storage medium, which offers the following advantages: The controller is communicatively connected to the laser assembly, the galvanometer module mechanism, and the transport mechanism, respectively. It sends a start signal to the laser assembly to emit multiple laser beams to the galvanometer module mechanism, thereby expanding the processing area of the galvanometer module. Based on a preset flying cutting algorithm, the controller calculates the laser trajectory corresponding to each laser beam and controls the transport mechanism to transport the sample electrode along a preset feeding direction, enabling simultaneous feeding and electrode cutting. Then, based on the negative feedback signal sent by the transport mechanism and the flying cutting algorithm, multiple laser trajectories are derived to obtain multiple laser processing paths, thus integrating multiple laser processes and improving product productivity. Finally, all laser processing paths are sent to the galvanometer module mechanism, enabling it to cut the sample electrode according to the laser processing paths. This allows different galvanometer modules within the galvanometer module mechanism to cut the electrode according to their respective algorithms' calculated trajectories, improving the cutting efficiency of the sample electrode.
[0049] Please refer to Figure 1 , Figure 1 This is a schematic diagram of the electrode flying cutting device provided in the embodiments of this application;
[0050] In some embodiments, the electrode flying cutting device includes:
[0051] Laser assembly used to emit multiple laser beams;
[0052] It is understandable that the laser emitted by the laser assembly includes, but is not limited to, infrared lasers, ultraviolet lasers, and so on, of various wavelengths.
[0053] The galvanometer module is connected in communication with the laser assembly and is used to cut the sample electrode 500.
[0054] In some embodiments, the galvanometer module mechanism controls the size of the laser by adjusting the reflection angle and rotation angle, thereby completing the positioning, cutting and fine control of the laser spot, improving cutting accuracy and reliability.
[0055] It should be noted that the galvanometer module can be connected to the laser components via optical fibers, twisted pairs, or other means.
[0056] The transport mechanism 100 is located on one side of the beam emission direction of the galvanometer module mechanism. The transport mechanism 100 is used to transport the sample electrode 500 along the preset feeding direction.
[0057] In some embodiments, the transport mechanism 100 is configured corresponding to the galvanometer module mechanism and is located on one side of the beam emission direction of the galvanometer module mechanism. The preset feeding direction can be set by the user according to their needs, such as feeding from left to right or from right to left, thereby realizing the movement of the sample electrode 500 and further accelerating the processing efficiency of the sample electrode 500.
[0058] It should be noted that the transport mechanism 100 can be a belt conveyor, chain conveyor, etc., and this embodiment does not impose specific limitations.
[0059] The controller is communicatively connected to the laser assembly, the galvanometer module mechanism, and the transport mechanism 100. The controller sends a start signal to the laser assembly, causing it to emit multiple laser beams to the galvanometer module mechanism. Based on a preset flying-cutting algorithm, the controller controls the galvanometer module mechanism to calculate the laser trajectory corresponding to each laser beam. It controls the transport mechanism 100 to transport the sample electrode 500 along a preset feeding direction and receives negative feedback signals generated by the transport mechanism 100. Based on the negative feedback signals and the flying-cutting algorithm, it performs path derivation on the multiple laser trajectories to obtain multiple laser processing paths. It sends all laser processing paths to the galvanometer module mechanism, enabling the galvanometer module mechanism to cut the sample electrode 500 according to the laser processing paths. This achieves electrode cutting by different galvanometer modules within the galvanometer module mechanism according to their respective algorithms' calculated trajectories, improving the cutting efficiency of the sample electrode 500.
[0060] In some embodiments, the device further includes a gantry 200; the galvanometer module mechanism includes a first galvanometer module 310, a second galvanometer module 320, and a third galvanometer module 330. The second galvanometer module 320 is located in the center of the frame of the gantry 200. The first galvanometer module 310 and the third galvanometer module 330 are respectively arranged on both sides of the second galvanometer module 320 according to a preset installation interval, thereby expanding the processing area of the galvanometer, improving cutting efficiency, and solving the problem of limited processing area of a single galvanometer.
[0061] It should be noted that the first galvanometer module 310, the second galvanometer module 320, and the third galvanometer module 330 are sequentially mounted on the frame of the gantry 200, and the distance between two adjacent galvanometer modules is a preset installation interval. The installation interval is related to the length and width of the laser emitted by the laser assembly and is customized according to the length and width of the laser. For example, if the processing area of a single laser is 250mm*250mm, the installation interval is 250mm; if the processing area of a single laser is 300mm*300mm, the installation interval is 300mm, and so on.
[0062] In some embodiments, the laser assembly includes a first laser 410 disposed on one side of the gantry 200 and a second laser 420 and a third laser 430 disposed on the other side of the gantry 200. The first laser 410 is communicatively connected to a first galvanometer module 310, the second laser 420 is communicatively connected to a second galvanometer module 320, and the third laser 430 is communicatively connected to a third galvanometer module 330, thereby enabling large-area processing of the electrode sheet and accelerating the cutting efficiency of the electrode sheet.
[0063] It should be noted that the individual laser processing areas of the first laser 410, the second laser 420, and the third laser 430 are the same. For example, in this embodiment, the individual laser processing area is 250mm*250mm. The first galvanometer module 310, the second galvanometer module 320, and the third galvanometer module are spaced 250mm apart, so that the galvanometer processing area composed of the three galvanometer modules is 750mm*250mm.
[0064] It is understandable that the number of galvanometer modules in the galvanometer module mechanism is the same as the number of lasers in the laser assembly.
[0065] Please refer to Figure 2 , Figure 2 This is a flowchart of a specific method of the electrode flying cutting method provided in the embodiments of this application. It is applied, but not limited to, to the electrode flying cutting device described above. In some embodiments, the electrode flying cutting method includes, but is not limited to, steps S101 to S105.
[0066] Step S101: Send a start signal to the laser assembly so that the laser assembly emits multiple laser beams to the galvanometer module mechanism according to the start signal;
[0067] In some embodiments, a start signal is sent to the laser assembly to start the laser assembly, so that the laser assembly sends multiple laser beams to the galvanometer module mechanism to achieve optical path adjustment of multiple laser beams, thereby completing the positioning, cutting and fine control of the light spot.
[0068] Step S102: Based on the preset flight cutting algorithm, the galvanometer module mechanism is controlled to calculate the laser trajectory corresponding to each laser.

Receiving the negative feedback signal generated by the transport mechanism enables electrode feeding and electrode cutting to be performed simultaneously, thereby improving the cutting efficiency of the electrode.
[0072] Step S104: Based on the negative feedback signal and the flying cutting algorithm, multiple laser trajectories are derived to obtain multiple laser processing paths;
[0073] In some embodiments, multiple laser trajectories are derived based on negative feedback signals and a flight cutting algorithm, and path planning is performed on the multiple laser trajectories to optimize the cutting path and obtain multiple laser processing paths, thereby maximizing material utilization and reducing waste, and lowering processing costs.
[0074] Step S105: Send all laser processing paths to the galvanometer module mechanism so that the galvanometer module mechanism can cut the sample electrode according to the laser processing paths.
[0075] In some embodiments, all laser processing paths are sent to the galvanometer module mechanism so that the galvanometer module mechanism can cut the sample electrode according to the laser processing path, thereby enabling different galvanometer modules to cut the electrode according to the trajectory calculated by their respective algorithms, which can adapt to the cutting needs of various types of electrode.
[0076] Please refer to Figure 3 , Figure 3 This is a flowchart illustrating step S101 provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, step S101 includes, but is not limited to, steps S201 and S202.
[0077] Step S201: Determine the laser processing power, laser processing frequency, and laser processing speed based on the start signal;
[0078] In some embodiments, the start signal includes preset laser processing power, laser processing frequency, and laser processing speed. Therefore, the laser processing power, laser processing frequency, and laser processing speed are determined first based on the start signal, which facilitates the adjustment of the processing speed of the sample electrode and improves the cutting efficiency of the sample electrode.
[0079] Step S202: Send a start signal to the laser assembly to control the first laser, the second laser and the third laser to emit the first laser, the second laser and the third laser to the galvanometer module mechanism according to the laser processing power, the laser processing frequency and the laser processing speed.
[0080] In some embodiments, a start signal is sent to the laser assembly to control the first laser, the second laser, and the third laser to start, so that the three lasers emit the first laser, the second laser, and the third laser to the galvanometer module mechanism according to the preset laser processing power, laser processing frequency, and laser processing speed, respectively. The first laser is generated by the first laser, the second laser is generated by the second laser, and the third laser is generated by the third laser, thereby expanding the processing area of the sample electrode.
[0081] Please refer to Figure 4 , Figure 4 This is a flowchart illustrating step S102 provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, step S102 may include, but is not limited to, step S301.
[0082] Step S301: Based on the flight cutting algorithm, control the first galvanometer module to calculate the trajectory corresponding to the first laser to obtain the first trajectory; control the second galvanometer module to calculate the trajectory corresponding to the second laser to obtain the second trajectory; and control the third galvanometer module to calculate the trajectory corresponding to the third laser to obtain the third trajectory.
[0083] In some embodiments, the first galvanometer module, the second galvanometer module, and the third galvanometer module are controlled based on the flight cutting algorithm to calculate the trajectories corresponding to the first laser, the second laser, and the third laser, respectively, to obtain the first trajectory, the second trajectory, and the third trajectory, thereby obtaining the trajectories of different galvanometer modules. The first trajectory, the second trajectory, and the third trajectory are the actual cutting trajectories of the first galvanometer module, the second galvanometer module, and the third galvanometer module, which facilitates the subsequent determination of the processing path during the movement process.
[0084] Please refer to Figure 5 , Figure 5 This is a flowchart illustrating step S104 as provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, step S104 includes, but is not limited to, steps S401 and S402.

[0086] Step S402: Based on the flight cutting algorithm, the path cutting map is derived to obtain the first laser processing path corresponding to the first trajectory, the second laser processing path corresponding to the second trajectory, and the third laser processing path corresponding to the third trajectory.
[0087] It should be noted that the first laser processing path and the third laser processing path are mirror images of each other, and the second laser processing path is a straight line.
[0088] In some embodiments, after receiving a negative feedback signal, an image generation operation is performed on the first trajectory, the second trajectory, and the third trajectory to generate an actual path cutting map. Then, the multiple trajectories in the path cutting map are reversed using a flight cutting algorithm to obtain the laser cutting path in flight, namely, the first laser processing path, the second laser processing path, and the third laser processing path, thereby enabling dynamic cutting of the electrode sheet.
[0089] It should be noted that the paths calculated using the flying cut algorithm for the first and third laser processing paths are opposite.
[0090] Please refer to Figure 6 , Figure 6 This is a flowchart illustrating step S105 as provided in an embodiment of this application. In some embodiments, step S105 may include, but is not limited to, step S501.

[0092] In some embodiments, all laser processing paths are sent to the galvanometer module mechanism so that the first galvanometer module cuts the sample electrode along the first laser processing path, the second galvanometer module performs linear cyclic cutting of the sample electrode along the second laser processing path, and the third galvanometer module cuts the sample electrode along the third laser processing path, thereby completing the complete cutting of the electrode, improving the matching accuracy between multiple galvanometer modules, increasing cutting efficiency, and saving equipment costs.
[0093] It should be noted that the second laser processing path is set in a straight line, but the actual light output is a straight line shot out from an inclined plane.
[0094] To explain the electrode flying cutting device and method more clearly and thoroughly, specific examples are provided below.
[0095] Example 1:
[0096] The laser processing power, frequency, and speed are set by the industrial control computer. Then, the industrial control computer controls three lasers to generate laser light, which is transmitted to the galvanometer module mechanism through optical fiber. The three galvanometer modules then use a flying-cutting algorithm to calculate the trajectory corresponding to galvanometer modules 1, 2, and 3 respectively. During the electrode transportation process, the motor installed on the transport electrode generates a negative feedback signal that is transmitted back to the control card. After receiving the signal, the control card uses the flying-cutting algorithm to deduce the laser trajectory into a laser processing path. The controller then transmits the three regenerated algorithm path processing trajectories to the three galvanometer modules to perform laser cutting simultaneously, completing the entire electrode cutting process.

[0133] In some embodiments, the multiple galvanometer modules of this solution are used for parallel cutting, making full use of their effective processing area.
