[0037] The following combines Figures 1 to 3 to describe the square battery cell production line provided by the present invention.

[0038] As Figure 1 shown, the square battery cell production line provided by the present invention includes: a battery cell section processing system 1, a module section processing system 2, and a Pack section processing system 3.

[0039] In this embodiment, the battery cell section processing system 1, the module section processing system 2, and the Pack section processing system 3 are arranged in sequence along the processing direction. The battery cell section processing system 1 includes a battery cell transfer device 11, a battery cell gluing device 12, and a separator loading device 13 arranged in sequence along the processing direction.

[0040] During the operation of the square battery cell production line, the processing of the battery cell section is carried out first. The battery cell transfer device 11 is used to load the battery cells onto the production line. After the battery cells are loaded, the battery cell gluing device 12 glues the battery cells. After the gluing is completed, the separator feeding device 13 feeds the separators onto the production line so that the separators are pasted onto the battery cells, thus completing the processing of the battery cell section by the battery cell section processing system 1. After the processing of the battery cell section is completed, the processing of the module section starts. The battery cell module stacking device 21 stacks the battery cells with the separators installed to form a battery cell module. After the stacking is completed, the battery cell module bundling and squeezing device 22 shapes the stacked battery cell modules. The busbar welding device 23 welds the busbars of the shaped battery cell modules. After the busbar welding is completed, the battery cell module clamping device 24 transfers the battery cell modules to the Pack section processing system 3. After the processing of the module section is completed, the Pack section processing system 3 packs the processed battery cell modules into boxes.

[0041] The square battery cell production line provided by the present invention includes a battery cell section processing system, a module section processing system, and a Pack section processing system. The battery cell section processing system includes a battery cell transfer device, a battery cell gluing device, and a separator feeding device arranged in sequence along the processing direction. The battery cell transfer device is used to load the battery cells onto the production line, the battery cell gluing device is used to glue the battery cells, and the separator feeding device is used to feed the separators onto the production line so that the separators are pasted onto the battery cells. The module section processing system includes a battery cell module stacking device, a battery cell module bundling and squeezing device, a busbar welding device, and a battery cell module clamping device arranged in sequence along the processing direction. The battery cell module stacking device is used to stack the battery cells with the separators installed to form a battery cell module, the battery cell module bundling and squeezing device is used to shape the battery cell modules, the busbar welding device is used to weld the busbars of the shaped battery cell modules, and the battery cell module clamping device is used to transfer the battery cell modules. The Pack section processing system is used to pack the processed battery cell modules into boxes. Thus, the processing of the battery cell section, module section, and Pack section of the battery is automatically completed, greatly improving the production efficiency of the battery cells.

[0042] In one embodiment, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, the Pack section processing system 3 is provided with a box loading workstation 31, a battery cell module loading workstation 32, an accessory installation workstation 33, and a testing workstation 34 arranged in sequence along the processing direction; the box loading workstation 31 is used to transfer the box to the production line, the battery cell module loading workstation 32 is used to import the battery cell module into the box, the accessory installation workstation 33 is used to install the accessories of the battery cell module, and the testing workstation 34 is used to test the battery cell module after the installation is completed. Specifically, after the processing of the module section is completed, the box is first transferred to the production line through the box loading workstation 31, and the box loading workstation 31 is mainly composed of equipment such as a material rack and a vacuum cleaner. The box is cleaned by using the vacuum cleaner, and the box is inserted into the production line by the cantilever crane. At the same time, the cantilever crane, barcode scanner, all-in-one machine and other equipment can also be used at the box loading workstation 31 to lift the module by the cantilever crane and put it into the box. After the loading into the box is completed, the accessory installation workstation 33 can be used to install the accessories of the battery cell module, and after the installation is completed, the installed battery cell module is tested at the testing workstation 34. The testing workstation 34 is mainly composed of EOL (End-of-life) testing equipment, barcode scanner, tablet computer and other equipment. The packing is confirmed by scanning the code, the wire harness is inserted into the packing assembly, and the testing equipment completes various tests of the packing and uploads and binds the test data. The main test items: capacity test, ground impedance, insulation of total positive and total negative to ground, withstand voltage of total positive and total negative to ground, withstand voltage of total positive and total negative to communication port, single cell voltage difference detection, serial number writing, SOC calibration, etc.

[0043] In a specific embodiment, as Figure 1As shown in the figure, the working process of the square battery cell production line includes the following steps: First, process the battery cell section. Use the battery cell transfer device 11 to load the battery cells onto the production line, perform barcode scanning and OCA testing. Then, use the battery cell gluing device 12 to perform plasma cleaning on one side of the battery cell. After the cleaning is completed, flip the battery cell and perform plasma cleaning on the other side of the battery cell. After the cleaning is completed, glue and detect one side of the battery cell, and glue and detect the other side of the battery cell after flipping. At the same time, the separator feeding device 13 processes the air duct separator for feeding, performs plasma cleaning on one side of it. After the cleaning is completed, flip the air duct separator and perform plasma cleaning on the other side of the air duct separator, paste the air duct separator on the battery cell, and scan the barcode of the battery cell with the air duct separator pasted on it, thus completing the processing of the battery cell section by the battery cell section processing system 1. After completing the processing of the battery cell section, the module section processing system 2 starts to process the module section. Use the battery cell module stacking device 21 to stack the battery cells with the separators installed to form a battery cell module. After the stacking is completed, the battery cell module bundling and squeezing device 22 shapes the stacked battery cell modules and uses a laser to perform laser coding on the stacked battery cells. Perform pole addressing laser cleaning on the battery cell module and install the CCS component. Then, use the busbar welding device 23 to weld the busbars of the battery cell modules. After the welding is completed, perform post-welding inspection, manual inspection, and module EOL testing. Finally, use the battery cell module clamping device 24 to transfer the battery cell module to the Pack section processing system 3. After completing the processing of the module section, first use the box loading station 31 to transfer the box to the production line. The box loading station 31 cleans the box and transfers it to the production line. The battery cell module loading into box station 32 is used to import the battery cell module into the box. The accessory installation station 33 is used to install the accessories of the battery cell module, set the wind cover, front panel, fastening series copper bars, etc. on the battery cell module, perform torque recheck, and install the insulating upper cover. After the installation is completed, perform EOL testing on the Packed battery cell module. After the testing is completed, unload the qualified battery cell modules from the production line.

[0044] As Figures 2 to 6 shown, the battery cell transfer device 11 provided by the present invention is arranged on one side of the battery cell loading area, the battery cell processing area, and the tray placement area. There is a tray 1120 in the battery cell loading area and a square battery cell 1110 placed in the tray 1120.

[0045] In this embodiment, the battery cell transfer device 11 includes: a robotic arm 1130, a battery cell pitch-changing gripping mechanism 1140, and a tray-removing mechanism 1150. The battery cell pitch-changing gripping mechanism 1140 includes a base 11401, a pitch-changing assembly 11402, and a gripping assembly 11403. The base 11401 is installed on the robotic arm 1130. The pitch-changing assembly 11402 is installed on the base 11401 and changes pitch along the extension direction of the base 11401. The gripping assembly 11403 is installed on the pitch-changing assembly 11402. The gripping assembly 11403 is used to grip the square battery cells 1110 on the tray 1120. The tray-removing mechanism 1150 is connected to the base 11401. When the gripping assembly 11403 grips the square battery cells 1110, the tray-removing mechanism 1150 squeezes the tray 1120 to separate the square battery cells 1110 from the tray 1120.

[0046] Specifically, the pitch-changing assembly 11402 can slide in the extension direction of the base 11401. Since the gripping assembly 11403 is installed on the pitch-changing assembly 11402, during the sliding process of the pitch-changing assembly 11402, the position of the gripping assembly 11403 can be further adjusted so that the gripping assembly 11403 can grip the square battery cells 1110 in the tray 1120. Since the square battery cells 1110 are arranged in the tray 1120, to prevent the tray 1120 from moving when gripping the square battery cells 1110, the tray-removing mechanism 1150 is connected to the base 11401. When the gripping assembly 11403 grips the square battery cells 1110, the tray-removing mechanism 1150 squeezes the tray 1120 to separate the square battery cells 1110 from the tray 1120. After the operator uses a manual forklift to transport the full stack of battery cells to the battery cell loading area, the battery cell transfer device detects the position of the square battery cells 1110 in the tray 1120. The battery cell transfer device first controls the positions of the pitch-changing assembly 11402, the gripping assembly 11403, and the tray-removing mechanism 1150 through the robotic arm 1130, so that the pitch-changing assembly 11402, the gripping assembly 11403, and the tray-removing mechanism 1150 are located above the square battery cells 1110. Then, it controls the pitch-changing assembly 11402 to slide in the extension direction of the base 11401, so that the gripping assembly 11403 on the pitch-changing assembly 11402 aligns with the battery cells. The gripping assembly 11403 can grip one or more columns of square battery cells 1110 at a time and transfer the square battery cells 1110 to the battery cell processing area. The gripping assembly 11403 sequentially picks up the remaining battery cells. When picking up the last column of square battery cells 1110, it is easy to lift the tray 1120 when picking up the square battery cells 1110. At this time, the tray-removing mechanism 1150 is needed to assist the gripping assembly 11403. The tray-removing mechanism 1150 squeezes the tray 1120 to separate the square battery cells 1110 from the tray 1120.

[0047] In one example, as Figures 2 to 6As shown in the figure, the battery cell transfer device further includes: a tray gripping mechanism 1160, which is installed on the base 11401. The tray gripping mechanism 1160 is used to grip the tray 1120 and transfer the tray 1120 in the battery cell loading area to the tray placement area.

[0048] Specifically, the tray gripping mechanism 1160 includes: a tray jaw 11601 and a third driving component 11602. The third driving component 11602 can be a driving cylinder or a driving motor. The third driving component 11602 is connected to the base 11401, and the tray jaw 11601 is movably connected to the base 11401 along a direction perpendicular to the base 11401 through the third driving component 11602.

[0049] After the transfer of the square battery cells 1110 on a tray 1120 is completed, the battery cell transfer device detects the position of the tray 1120. The battery cell transfer device first adjusts the position of the tray jaw 11601 through the robotic arm 1130 to align the tray jaw 11601 with the tray 1120, and then the third driving component 11602 drives the tray jaw 11601 to move downward to grip the tray 1120 with the tray jaw 11601, and transfer the tray 1120 in the battery cell loading area to the tray placement area. In one embodiment, such as Figures 2 to 6As shown, the pitch-changing component 11402 includes a fixed block 114021, a slider 114022, and a first driving component 114023. The fixed block 114021 is fixedly connected to one end of the base 11401. The slider 114022 is slidably mounted on the base 11401. The first driving component 114023 is mounted on the base 11401, and the output end of the first driving component 114023 is connected to the slider 114022 to enable the slider 114022 to slide along the extending direction of the base 11401. The fixed block 114021 and the slider 114022 are both provided with battery cell grippers 114024. The first driving component 114023 can adopt a cylinder or a motor. Since the fixed block 114021 and the slider 114022 are both provided with battery cell grippers 114024, when the pitch between the battery cell grippers 114024 needs to be adjusted, the slider 114022 can be controlled by the first driving component 114023 to slide on the base 11401, so that the battery cell grippers 114024 on the fixed block 114021 and the slider 114022 are aligned with a row of square battery cells 1110 on the tray 1120, thereby enabling multiple square battery cells 1110 to be transported simultaneously. To limit the movement of the slider 114022, the pitch-changing component further includes a limit pull rod 114025. The limit pull rod 114025 is disposed between the slider 114022 and the fixed block 114021. Limit members 114026 for limiting are provided at both ends of the limit pull rod 114025 for abutting against the slider 114022 and the fixed block 114021. Through holes for the limit pull rod 114025 to pass through are provided on both the slider 114022 and the fixed block 114021. In this embodiment, when the first driving component 114023 drives the slider 114022 to slide on the base 11401, when the slider 114022 moves away from the fixed block 114021, the slider 114022 drives the limit pull rod 114025 to move away from the fixed block 114021 through the limit member 114026 at one end of the limit pull rod 114025. When the slider 114022 moves a certain distance, the limit member 114026 at the other end of the limit pull rod 114025 abuts against the fixed block 114021, and the slider 114022 stops sliding. At this time, the slider 114022 slides to the maximum pitch relative to the fixed block 114021. When the slider 114022 moves towards the fixed block 114021, the limit pull rod 114025 and the limit members 114026 at both ends thereof do not limit the slider 114022 until the slider 114022 abuts against the fixed block 114021. At this time, the slider 114022 slides to the minimum pitch relative to the fixed block 114021. The distance between the slider 114022 and the fixed block 114021 can be adjusted as needed to meet different pitch requirements for the battery cell grippers 114024. Based on the above embodiments, in one embodiment, as Figures 2 to 6As shown in the figure, to improve the transfer efficiency, there are multiple limiting tie rods 114025 and sliders 114022. Each slider 114022 is provided with a battery cell gripper 114024. The fixed block 114021 and multiple sliders 114022 are arranged in sequence.

When the first driving component 114023 drives the fourth slider 114030 to move away from the fixed block 114021, with the first driving component 114023 as the power, after the fourth slider 114030 reaches the specified position, the fourth limiting tie rod pulls the third slider 114029 to slide. After the third slider 114029 reaches the specified position, the third limiting tie rod pulls the second slider 114028 to slide. After the second slider 114028 reaches the specified position, the second limiting tie rod pulls the first slider 114027 to slide.

The stacking surface and the bearing surface are used to jointly bear the battery cell A; the battery cell clamp 213 is movably arranged on the bearing surface along the first direction, and the battery cell clamp 213 has a moving stroke that reciprocates between the loading end and the stacking end; wherein, the battery cell clamp 213 is used to receive the battery cell A at the loading end and clamp the battery cell A to move towards the stacking end, so as to stack the battery cell A on the stacking surface along the first direction.

[0057] Furthermore, as Figures 9 to 13As shown, a backing plate 2111 is convexly provided on the bearing surface. The backing plate 2111 extends along the first direction, and one end extends to the stacking end. The end face of the backing plate 2111 facing away from the bearing surface is used to carry the battery cell A, and an avoidance space is formed between the side wall surface of the backing plate 2111 and the bearing surface. In this embodiment, by using the backing plate 2111 to carry the battery cell A, a gap is formed between the battery cell A and the bearing surface, so as to facilitate the movement of the battery cell A driven by the battery cell fixture 213, or during the subsequent process of the blanking device removing the battery cell module, components such as the clamping jaws can extend between the battery cell A and the bearing surface to grab the battery cell A. It should be noted that the battery cell A is carried on the end face of the backing plate 2111 facing away from the bearing surface, and an avoidance space is formed between the side wall surface of the backing plate and the bearing surface. In the present invention, the first direction is the length direction of the backing plate 2111, the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface is the thickness direction of the backing plate 2111, avoidance spaces are formed on both sides in the width direction of the backing plate 2111, and the width of the backing plate 2111 is smaller than the width of the battery cell.

[0058] In an embodiment provided by the present invention, the battery cell fixture 213 includes a pawl assembly for jointly lifting the battery cell A. The pawl assembly includes a first supporting portion and a second supporting portion. The first supporting portion extends along the first direction, and the second supporting portion is arranged perpendicular to the bearing surface, forming an L-shaped structure. In this embodiment, since the battery cell A is placed between the first supporting portion and the second supporting portion, the battery cell A cannot be directly attached to the bearing surface. At this time, through the backing plate 2111, the battery cell A can be attached to the backing plate 2111, and at the same time, the first supporting portion can move along the avoidance space, facilitating the cooperation with the battery cell fixture 213; at the same time, when the battery cell module is removed subsequently, the external clamping jaws can extend into the avoidance space to clamp the battery cell.

[0059] In the embodiment provided by the present invention, the battery cell module stacking device 21 includes a lifting member 214. The lifting member 214 is movably installed on the bearing surface along the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface, and is located between the stacking end and the feeding end. The end face of the lifting member 214 facing away from the bearing surface is used to lift the upper end plate. After the battery cells are stacked, it is necessary to place the upper end plate at the end of the battery cell stack. When the cross-sectional size of the upper end plate is smaller than the cross-sectional size of the battery cell A, the upper end plate cannot be located at the center position of the battery cell A. In this embodiment, the upper end plate is lifted along the direction away from the bearing surface by the lifting member 214, so that the upper end plate remains at the center position of the battery cell A, avoiding the position difference between the two due to the upper end plate being closely attached to the bearing surface.

[0060] Specifically, in this embodiment, the bearing surface is correspondingly recessed with an installation groove, and the lifting member 214 is telescopically arranged in the installation groove. By installing the lifting member 214 through the installation groove, when the lifting member 214 does not need to adjust the position of the upper end plate, it can directly retract into the installation groove without affecting the normal placement of the upper end plate. When lifting is required, after the battery cells are stacked to a specified height, that is, the position where the lifting member 214 is located, the lifting member 214 protrudes to support the upper end plate and push the upper end plate out to the same position as the center of the battery cell A. It should be noted that, in this embodiment, the lifting member 214 is a lifting block to facilitate the lifting of the upper end plate. In addition, in this embodiment, a lifting member is also provided at the loading end to facilitate adjusting the position of the upper end plate on the battery cell fixture 213 when the battery cell fixture 213 at the loading end obtains the battery cell. There are various ways for the telescopic movement of the lifting member 214, such as through a cylinder or a motor, etc., as long as it can achieve the reciprocating movement of the lifting member 214 along the direction perpendicular to the bearing surface, and no specific limitation is made in the present invention. It should be noted that multiple supporting cushion blocks 2122 can be provided, and the multiple supporting cushion blocks 2122 are jointly used to support the lower end plate.

On the other hand, the positioning assembly 212 further includes two positioning jaws 2123 spaced apart along the second direction of the bearing surface. The two positioning jaws 2123 are respectively arranged on both sides of the positioning plate 2121, and the two positioning jaws 2123 have a moving stroke of approaching or separating from each other, and the two positioning jaws 2123 are used to clamp the battery cell therebetween; wherein, the first direction and the second direction are perpendicularly arranged. In this embodiment, after the lower end plate and the battery cell A are placed on the positioning plate 2121, the two positioning jaws 2123 are used to clamp the battery cell or the lower end plate on the positioning plate 2121, and then the position of the lower end plate or the battery cell is centered and adjusted to ensure the stacking basis of the battery cells, and to avoid incorrect stacking due to the deviation of the bottom position during the subsequent stacking of the battery cells. At the same time, the position of the lower end plate is fixed by the positioning jaws 2123 to avoid shaking during the stacking process and the movement process of the entire mounting plate. It should be noted that the two positioning jaws 2123 are both installed on the mounting plate 211 to save space. In this embodiment, the two positioning jaws 2123 are respectively on both sides of the positioning plate 2121, and the positioning assembly 212 further includes a driving device, and the driving device drives the two positioning jaws 2123 to move. In addition, in order to avoid the driving device affecting the stacking of the positioning plate 2121, the driving device is located on the side of the positioning plate 2121 facing away from the loading end.On the other hand, the battery cell fixture 213 further includes a fixture bracket 2131, a pawl assembly, and a centering assembly; the fixture bracket 2131 is movably disposed on the bearing surface along the first direction; the pawl assembly is mounted on the fixture bracket, and a battery cell storage space is formed on the pawl assembly for supporting the battery cell; the centering assembly is mounted on the fixture bracket, and the centering assembly can approach or move away from the pawl assembly, and a battery cell clamping space is formed on the centering assembly for clamping the side wall of the battery cell.

The pawl assembly includes: a pair of battery cell pawls 21321 and a first driving member 21322; the first driving member 21322 is connected to the fixture bracket 2131; the first driving member 21322 is used to drive the two battery cell pawls 21321 to approach or move away from each other, so that the distance between the two battery cell pawls 21321 switches between less than a first length and greater than the first length; wherein, the first length is the length of battery cell A. When the distance between the two battery cell pawls 21321 is less than the first length, battery cell A can be placed on the two battery cell pawls 21321; when the distance between the two battery cell pawls 21321 is greater than the first length, the two battery cell pawls 21321 can avoid the stacked battery cell module to facilitate the centering and placement of the centering assembly. Further, the battery cell pawl 21321 includes: a first supporting portion and a second supporting portion, and the first supporting portion and the second supporting portion are vertically connected to form an L-shaped structure, and the bottom and side wall of battery cell A are respectively in contact with the L-shaped structure. Among them, the first supporting portion and the second supporting portion jointly define the battery cell storage space. Further, the side wall of the battery cell pawl 21321 in contact with battery cell A is provided with a roller structure, and the rolling axis of the roller is perpendicular to the moving direction of the battery cell pawl, so as to reduce the friction between the battery cell pawl and the bottom of the battery cell when the two battery cell pawls move away from each other and open during the stacking of the battery cells, preventing the shell of the battery cell from being scratched.

[0062] Further, the centering assembly includes a centering jaw 21331 and a driving assembly 21332. The driving assembly 21332 is connected to the fixture bracket. The centering jaw 21331 includes a first centering part and a second centering part. The driving assembly 21332 is connected to the first centering part and the second centering part and is used to drive the first centering part and the second centering part to approach or move away from each other, and a battery cell clamping space is formed between the first centering part and the second centering part. Among them, the driving assembly 21332 may include a plurality of driving devices, and the plurality of driving devices respectively drive the centering jaw 21331 to perform different actions, such as opening and closing the centering jaw 21331, and the overall movement of the centering jaw 21331, etc. Among them, the driving assembly 21332 may be a device well known in the art, such as a cylinder, an electric telescopic rod, etc. Specifically, the first centering part and the second centering part are arranged opposite to each other to form a clamping structure. When the first centering part and the second centering part approach each other, the side wall of the battery cell is clamped, and when the first centering part and the second centering part move away from each other, the side wall of the battery cell is relaxed. Among them, the driving assembly 21332 can perform centering adjustment during the process of the first centering part and the second centering part approaching each other according to a set program, so that the clamped battery cell A is in a straight line with the stacked battery cells A. Further, the battery cell fixture 213 further includes a pressing-down assembly. The pressing-down assembly includes a pressing member 21341 and a second driving member 21342.

An extrusion assembly 2221 is provided on the transfer mechanism 222. The extrusion assembly 2221 is used to extrude the battery cell module 224 on the transfer mechanism 222 along the length direction of the battery cell module 224.

[0067] Specifically, for the battery cell module extrusion and bundling device shown in this embodiment, by respectively shaping and squeezing and sleeving the steel belt on the battery cell module 224 at two workstations, the overall efficiency of bundling the battery cell module is improved. When the battery cell module 224 needs to be bundled, the transfer mechanism 222 moves to the transfer position to make a receiving preparation. The loading manipulator transfers the battery cell module 224 to be bundled onto the transfer mechanism 222. The shaping mechanism 223 is turned on, so as to shape the side surface of the battery cell module 224, so that the side surface of the battery cell module 224 can be kept flat. After the shaping is completed, the transfer mechanism 222 drives the battery cell module 224 to move to the bundling position. The extrusion assembly 2221 extrudes the battery cell module 224 along the length direction of the battery cell module 224 to appropriately reduce the length dimension of the battery cell module 224, so as to facilitate the operator to sleeve the steel belt along the height direction of the battery cell module 224, thereby completing the bundling of the battery cell module 224. The transfer mechanism 222 drives the bundled battery cell module 224 to move to the transfer position, and the unloading manipulator performs unloading. That is, the entire bundling process is completed by two workstations. The battery cell module 224 is shaped at the transfer position, and the battery cell module 224 is squeezed and sleeved with a steel belt at the bundling position. On the one hand, by setting two workstations, the orderly bundling of the battery cell module can be realized, ensuring the production efficiency. On the other hand, sleeving the steel belt at the bundling position can avoid the occlusion caused by the shaping mechanism 223 and ensure the operation space.

[0068] In some embodiments, the cell module extrusion and bundling device shown in this embodiment further includes: a downward pressing mechanism 225; the downward pressing mechanism 225 is disposed at the bundling position, and the downward pressing mechanism 225 is used to press the cell module 224 on the transfer mechanism 222 in the height direction of the cell module 224. Specifically, after the transfer mechanism 222 moves the shaped cell module 224 to the bundling position, the downward pressing mechanism 225 is activated, so as to apply pressure to the cell module 224 in the height direction of the cell module 224, that is, to pressurize the upper surface of the cell module 224, effectively avoiding the deformation problem of the cell module 224 caused by the extrusion component 2221 when extruding the cell module 224. During the actual process of sleeving the steel strip, usually two steel strips need to be sleeved on the cell module 224. One steel strip is located in the upper half of the cell module 224, and the other steel strip is located in the lower half of the cell module 224. The operator sleeves one steel strip on the lower half of the cell module 224 from bottom to top, and then the downward pressing mechanism 225 retracts, so that the operator can sleeve the other steel strip on the upper half of the cell module 224 from top to bottom. As Figure 15 shown, the downward pressing mechanism 225 shown in this embodiment includes a mounting frame 2251, a first driving member 2252 and a downward pressing head 2253; the downward pressing head 2253 is connected to the mounting frame 2251 through the first driving member 2252, and the first driving member 2252 is used to drive the downward pressing head 2253 to move in the height direction of the cell module 224, and the first driving member 2252 drives the downward pressing head 2253 to move towards the cell module 224 until the downward pressing head 2253 contacts the cell module 224 and applies a certain pressure to the cell module 224.

[0069] As Figure 15 shown, the downward pressing mechanism 225 shown in this embodiment further includes a guiding structure 2254. The guiding structure 2254 includes a guiding rod and a guiding cylinder. The guiding rod and the guiding cylinder are both arranged in the height direction of the cell module 224. The guiding rod is movably arranged in the guiding cylinder. The guiding cylinder is connected to the mounting frame 2251, and the guiding rod is connected to the downward pressing head 2253. As Figure 16 shown, a steel strip prefabrication groove 2222 for accommodating the steel strip is provided on the transfer mechanism 222 shown in this embodiment. Before sleeving the steel strip, the steel strip in the steel strip prefabrication groove 2222 is located directly below the cell module 224. After the extrusion component 2221 extrudes the cell module 224, the operator lifts the steel strip, so as to sleeve the steel strip on the lower half of the cell module 224 from bottom to top. As Figure 17As shown, the shaping mechanism 223 shown in this embodiment includes a first shaping component 2231 and a second shaping component; the first shaping component 2231 and the second shaping component are arranged oppositely along the width direction of the battery cell module 224; the first shaping component 2231 and the second shaping component have the same structure, and both include a shaping plate 22311 and a second driving member 22312; the second driving member 22312 is used to drive the shaping plate 22311 to move towards or away from the side of the battery cell module 224.

[0070] In some embodiments, as Figure 17 shown, the first shaping component 2231 shown in this embodiment further includes a guide rail 22313; the guide rail 22313 extends along the width direction of the battery cell module 224, and the shaping plate 22311 is movably arranged on the guide rail 22313. Specifically, under the guiding action of the guide rail 22313, the stability of the movement of the shaping plate 22311 is ensured, and thus the shaping quality of the side surface of the battery cell module 224 is ensured. The first shaping component 2231 further includes a limiting structure 22314; the limiting structure 22314 is detachably connected to the shaping plate 22311. Specifically, through the limiting action of the limiting structure 22314, the over-extrusion of the battery cell module 224 caused by the shaping plate 22311 is avoided. A sliding table 2211 is provided on the bench 221 shown in this embodiment, and the transfer mechanism 222 is arranged on the sliding table 2211, and the transfer mechanism 222 is driven by the sliding table 2211 to switch between the bundling position and the transfer position. In some embodiments, as Figure 16As shown in the figure, the extrusion assembly 2221 shown in this embodiment includes a first extrusion head 22211, a second extrusion head 22212, and a third driving member 22213; the first extrusion head 22211 and the second extrusion head 22212 are oppositely arranged along the length direction of the battery cell module 224, and the third driving member 22213 is used to drive the first extrusion head 22211 and the second extrusion head 22212 to approach or separate from each other. Specifically, the third driving member 22213 drives the first extrusion head 22211 and the second extrusion head 22212 to approach each other so as to extrude the battery cell module 224 along the length direction of the battery cell module 224, so as to appropriately reduce the length dimension of the battery cell module 224, so that the operator can put the steel belt on the battery cell module 224. In some embodiments, a pressure sensor 226 is provided on the second extrusion head 22212 shown in this embodiment. The pressure sensor 226 is communicatively connected to the third driving member 22213 through a controller. The pressure sensor 226 feeds back the pressure received by the battery cell module 224 to the controller, and the controller correspondingly controls the third driving member 22213 to control the pressure within a suitable range; for example, the pre-pressure, holding pressure, and over-pressure can be set in advance according to the magnitude of the pressure. When the pressure reaches the pre-pressure, the third driving member 22213 can be controlled to continue to act, that is, continue to apply pressure. When the pressure reaches the holding pressure, the third driving member 22213 is controlled to stop. At this time, the steel belt is put on the battery cell module 224. In extreme working conditions, if the pressure reaches the over-pressure, the third driving member 22213 is correspondingly controlled to retract to prevent deformation and damage of the battery cell module 224.
