[0035] See Figure 1 and Figure 2 , Figure 1 FIG. 1 shows a schematic structural diagram of a battery heating device 100 in an embodiment of the present application. Figure 2 Shown Figure 1 The battery heating device 100 is a schematic structural diagram from another perspective. An embodiment of the present application provides a battery heating device 100, which includes at least two heating roller groups 1 and a driving mechanism 4.

[0036] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the heating roller assembly 1 includes a rotating shaft 12, a magnetizer 11, and multiple coils 13. The magnetizer 11 is sleeved around the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 12. The magnetizer 11 is provided with multiple connection terminals 111, each of which is wound with a coil 13. The connection terminals 111 are arranged axially along the rotating shaft 12 to form a connection terminal array 111a. The coils 13 wound around the connection terminal array 111a form a coil array 1b. Multiple coil arrays 1b are spaced circumferentially along the rotating shaft 12, with the coils 13 in two adjacent coil arrays 1b arranged in an alternating pattern. At least two heating roller assemblies 1 are arranged side by side and spaced apart. A heating space 1c is formed between the two adjacent heating roller assemblies 1 for accommodating the batteries 2 to be heated. The coil arrays 1b in the two adjacent heating roller assemblies 1 correspond one-to-one to form a heating coil assembly (not shown), and the coils 13 in different heating roller assemblies 1 within the heating coil assembly correspond one-to-one. The heating coil assembly has a heating state. In this state, the multiple coils 13 within the heating coil assembly face the battery 2 located between the corresponding two heating roller assemblies 1. The heating coil assembly is capable of generating an electromagnetic field within the heating space 1c between the corresponding two heating roller assemblies 1, which is used to heat the battery 2 located within the corresponding heating space 1c. The drive mechanism 4 is drivably connected to the at least two rotating shafts 12 and is capable of driving the at least two rotating shafts 12 to rotate synchronously. As the drive mechanism 4 drives the at least two rotating shafts 12 to rotate, the heating coil assemblies can alternately enter the heating state.

[0037] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, when the heating coil assembly is in the heating state, it can form an alternating magnetic field within the corresponding heating space 1c, thereby generating eddy currents inside the battery 2 located in the heating space 1c, thereby directly heating the battery 2. Compared with traditional resistance wire heating, this heating method can reduce the heat transfer process through the medium, improve heating efficiency, and reduce heating energy consumption.

[0038] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the coils 13 in the heating coil assembly have two critical heating positions. When the coils 13 in the heating coil assembly reach these critical heating positions, the multiple coils 13 in the heating coil assembly face the battery 2 located between the corresponding two heating roller assemblies 1, and high-frequency alternating current is supplied or stopped from supplying to the coils 13. Therefore, these two critical heating positions are the boundary positions at which the heating coil assembly can heat the battery 2 located between the corresponding two heating roller assemblies 1. Therefore, when the coils 13 in the heating coil assembly are rotated by two adjacent rotating shafts 12 to reach these two critical heating positions, the heating coil assembly enters or exits the heating state.

[0039] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, when the coils 13 in the heating coil assembly are located between the two critical heating positions and are all facing the battery 2 located between the two heating roller groups 1 corresponding to the heating coil assembly, the heating coil assembly is in a heating state. Therefore, it can be defined that the coils 13 in the heating coil assembly can form a heating interval between the two critical heating positions, and the battery 2 is heated within this heating interval. Within this heating interval, a high-frequency alternating current is passed through the multiple coils 13 in the heating coil assembly, thereby forming an electromagnetic field within the heating space 1c corresponding to the heating coil assembly, thereby directly heating the battery 2.

[0040] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 The connection end 111 on the magnetizer 11 can enhance the magnetic field strength generated by the coil 13. Furthermore, the connection end 111 can ensure that the coil can be securely mounted on the magnetizer 11, thereby ensuring that the magnetic field generated by the coil 13 can heat different locations of the battery 2 during the rotation of the heating roller assembly 1, thereby achieving more uniform heating of the battery 2.

[0041] Optionally, the number of turns of the coil 13 wound around the connection end 111 can be designed as needed, for example, it can be one turn, two turns, three turns or more turns.

[0042] In the battery heating device 100 described above, the coils 13 are wound around the connection ends 111 of the magnetic conductor 11, enabling the magnetic conductor 11 to enhance the electromagnetic field intensity generated by the coils 13. The coil rows 1b on two adjacent heating roller assemblies 1 correspond one-to-one to form a heating coil assembly. Within the heating coil assembly, the coils 13 located in different heating roller assemblies 1 correspond one-to-one. When the heating coil assembly is in the heating state, the electromagnetic field generated by the heating coil assembly can induce eddy currents within the battery 2 located between the two corresponding heating roller assemblies 1. These eddy currents can then directly heat the battery 2, effectively improving heating efficiency and reducing heating energy consumption. Furthermore, because the multiple coil rows 1b on the heating roller assemblies 1 are staggered along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12, each heating coil assembly, driven by the drive mechanism 4, can alternately enter the heating state and heat different locations on the battery 2, achieving dynamic changes in the heating position to ensure uniform heating of the battery 2.

[0043] Specifically, when the battery heating device 100 is used to heat a blade-type battery, the length of the blade-type battery can be parallel to the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12, so that by lengthening the rotating shaft 12 and the coil 13 provided on the rotating shaft 12, the blade-type battery can be completely disposed within the heating space 1c, and the point magnetic field generated by the heating coil group can cover the length of the blade-type battery to ensure uniform heating and effectively shorten the heating time. In addition, since the width of the blade-type battery is relatively narrow, when the blade-type battery is located in the heating space, the electromagnetic field generated by each heating coil group can better cover the blade-type battery in the width direction of the blade-type battery, so that when the rotating shaft 12 rotates so that each heating coil group enters the heating state in turn, the battery heating device 100 can comprehensively and evenly heat the blade-type battery and effectively improve the heating efficiency of the blade-type battery.

[0044] Optionally, during the process of heating the battery 2 by the battery heating device 100, the rotational pattern of the rotating shaft 12 can be designed as needed. For example, the rotating shaft 12 can rotate continuously at a high speed so that the position of the battery 2 being heated continuously changes during the heating process. Alternatively, the rotating shaft 12 can also move intermittently, that is, when the rotating shaft 12 rotates to a certain position so that a certain heating coil group is in a heating state, it pauses for a certain period of time and then rotates again to allow the next heating coil group to enter the heating state. This rotational pattern facilitates the heating coil groups to efficiently heat the battery 2.

[0045] Optionally, in some embodiments, when the heating coil group is in the heating state, direct current can also be passed into the coil 13. At this time, the rotating shaft 12 should be rotated at a high speed so that the heating coil group can generate a changing electromagnetic field in the corresponding heating space 1c to stimulate eddy currents inside the battery 2, thereby achieving direct heating of the battery 2.

[0046] Optionally, in some embodiments, the coil 13 can also be replaced by a permanent magnet. In this case, in order to enable the heating coil group to generate a changing magnetic field in the corresponding heating space 1c to stimulate eddy currents inside the battery 2 and achieve direct heating of the battery 2, the rotating shaft 12 should be kept rotating at a high speed.

[0047] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, multiple coil arrays 1b are evenly spaced along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12. When multiple coil arrays 1b are evenly spaced along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12, the battery heating device 100 can change the heating position every time the rotating shaft 12 rotates a certain angle, thereby heating different positions of the battery 2, thereby ensuring uniform heating of the battery 2.

[0048] Optionally, the number of coil columns 1b in the heating roller group 1 can be designed as needed. For example, the number of coil columns 1b can be four, and the four coil columns 1b are evenly spaced around the circumference of the rotating shaft 12, so that the heating position of the battery 2 changes every time the rotating shaft 12 rotates 90°.

[0049] In another embodiment, when the plurality of coil rows 1b in the heating roller group 1 are arranged at uneven intervals in the circumferential direction of the rotating shaft 12, as long as two adjacent rotating shafts 12 rotate, the heating coil groups in the corresponding heating roller group 1 can enter the heating state in sequence.

[0050] In one embodiment, combined Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the polarity of the two adjacent coils 13 in each coil column 1b is opposite, and the polarity of each coil is also opposite to the polarity of the corresponding coil 13 in the other coil column 1b in the same heating coil group. In the heating state, when the polarity of the two adjacent coils 13 in the coil column 1b of the heating coil group is different, and the polarity of the two adjacent coils 13 is also different from the polarity of the two coils 13 opposite to them in the other coil column 1b of the heating coil group, a coil group can be formed between the two adjacent pairs of coils 13 in the heating coil group. At this time, in the heating state, a closed magnetic circuit can be formed between the coil groups. Among them, because the closed magnetic conductive path can enhance the penetration ability of the magnetic field, when the coil group can form a closed magnetic circuit in the corresponding heating space 1c, the battery 2 in the heating space 1c can be fully heated while effectively shortening the heating time and improving the heating efficiency.

[0051] Optionally, the number of coils 13 in each coil column 1 b can be set according to quantity, for example, it can be two, three, six or more.

[0052] In another embodiment, the three adjacent pairs of coils 13 in the heating coil group can also be constructed into a coil group. In this case, currents with a phase difference of 120 degrees can be respectively passed through the adjacent coils 13 in the same coil column 1b of the heating coil group, and currents with the same phase are respectively passed through the three coils 13 opposite to the three coils 13 in another coil column 1b, so that the coil group can form a closed and linearly movable magnetic circuit in the corresponding heating space 1c, so that the position where the magnetic flux lines penetrate the battery 2 is constantly changing, thereby improving the heating uniformity of the battery 2.

[0053] In one embodiment, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, in the heating state, the projections of two opposing coils 13 in the heating coil assembly, located in different heating roller groups 1, overlap in a first direction, where the first direction is the thickness direction of the battery 2 located between the two corresponding heating roller groups 1 in the heating coil assembly. This overlap in the first direction strengthens the electromagnetic field formed by the heating coil assembly within the corresponding heating space 1c, thereby enhancing the penetration of the magnetic field and enabling direct heating of all batteries 2. This shortens the heating time and improves heating efficiency.

[0054] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the electromagnetic fields generated by each heating coil assembly in the heating state can overlap the battery located between the two corresponding heating roller assemblies. When the electromagnetic fields generated by each heating coil assembly in two adjacent heating roller assemblies 1 can cover the corresponding battery, the two adjacent heating roller assemblies 1 can fully heat different locations of the battery 2 located between them, thereby ensuring uniform heating of the battery 2.

[0055] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, in the heating state, when the coils 13 in the heating coil assembly extend in a first direction, the projection of the coils 13 along the first direction onto the battery 2 located between the two heating roller assemblies 1 corresponding to the heating coil assembly is a first projection. The superposition of the first projections of the coils 13 in one of the heating roller assemblies 1 corresponding to the heating coil assembly can cover the battery 2 located between the two heating roller assemblies 1 corresponding to the heating coil assembly. When the coils 13 extend in the first direction, the two opposing coils 13 in different heating roller assemblies within the heating coil assembly are positioned opposite each other. In this state, the electromagnetic field generated by the heating coil assembly is at its maximum intensity. Therefore, when the heating coil assembly heats the corresponding battery 2 in this state, the heating time is effectively shortened and the heating efficiency is improved. The superposition of the first projections of the coils 13 in the heating roller assembly 1 can cover the corresponding battery 2. This allows the heating roller assembly 1 to fully heat different locations of the battery 2 located between the two during rotation, thereby ensuring uniform heating of the battery 2.

[0056] In one embodiment, the magnetizer 11 includes a plurality of sub-magnetizers that are sleeved on the outer circumference of the rotating shaft 12 and arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12. Each sub-magnetizer is provided with a plurality of connection ends 111. The plurality of connection ends 111 are arranged at intervals along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12 to form a sub-connection end column, and a plurality of sub-connection end columns are arranged at intervals along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12. The connection ends 111 in two adjacent sub-connection end columns are staggered along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12. In the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12, the sub-connection end columns in the plurality of sub-magnetizers correspond one to one to form a connection end column 111a. When the magnetizer 11 is formed by splicing together a plurality of sub-magnetizers that are arranged in sequence along the axial direction of the rotating shaft 12, not only is the processing of the magnetizer 11 more convenient, but the assembly is also more convenient. The magnetizer 11 can also be assembled and adjusted according to the battery 2 to be heated. For example, the number of sub-magnetizers installed on the rotating shaft 12 is set according to the length of the battery 2, so that the battery heating device 100 can be compatible with batteries 2 of different lengths and ensure the heating effect.

[0057] Optionally, the number of connection terminals 111 on the sub-magnetic conductor can be designed as needed, for example, it can be two or three.

[0058] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the battery heating device 100 further includes a support assembly 3 for supporting at least two heating roller assemblies. The support assembly 3 is rotatably connected to at least two rotating shafts. The arrangement of the support assembly 3 ensures relative stability between the heating roller assemblies 1 when the rotating shaft 12 drives the rotating shafts 12 in each heating roller assembly 1, thereby ensuring the reliability of the battery heating device 100.

[0059] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the support assembly 3 may include two support frames 31 arranged opposite to each other, the heating roller assembly 1 may be connected between the two support frames 31 , and the rotating shaft 12 in the heating roller assembly 1 is rotatably connected to both support frames 31 .

[0060] In one embodiment, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, there are two heating roller sets 1. When there are two heating roller sets 1, the structure of the battery heating device 100 is simpler and the volume is smaller, which is conducive to miniaturization of the device.

[0061] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the drive mechanism 4 includes a motor 42, a driving gear 43, and two driven gears 41. The motor 42 is drivingly connected to the driving gear 43, and the two driven gears 41 are both drivingly connected to the driving gear 43. The driven gears 41 are drivingly connected to the rotating shaft 12 in a one-to-one correspondence. When the motor 42 drives the driving gear 43 to rotate, and the driving gear 43 drives the two driven gears 41 to rotate synchronously, the two driven gears 41 can synchronously drive the rotating shaft 12 to which they are drivingly connected, thereby enabling the rotating shaft 12 to synchronously drive the heating coil groups in the heating roller assembly 1, ensuring that each heating coil group can alternately enter the heating state in sequence, thereby ensuring uniform heating of the battery 2.

[0062] Further, such as Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the driving mechanism 4 can be arranged on a side of one of the support frames 31 away from the heating roller assembly 1 , and the driving mechanism is connected to one end of the rotating shaft 12 passing through the support frame 31 .

[0063] Furthermore, if Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, the two driven gears 41 can be arranged on opposite sides of the driving gear 43, and the two driven gears 41 are externally meshed with the driving gear 43, so that the driving gear 43 can drive the two driven gears 41 to rotate in opposite directions, thereby driving the rotating shafts 12 in the two heating roller groups 1 and the coil arrays 1b in the two heating roller groups 1 to rotate in opposite directions. This design makes the structure of the driving mechanism 4 simple and highly reliable.

[0064] In other embodiments, the two driven gears 41 can be disposed within the driving gear 43 and mesh with the driving gear 43, so that the driving gear 43 can drive the two driven gears 41 to rotate in the same direction, thereby driving the rotating shafts 12 in the two heating roller assemblies 1 and the coil arrays 1b in the two heating roller assemblies 1 to rotate in the same direction. This design can effectively reduce the space occupied by the drive mechanism, facilitating a miniaturized design of the drive mechanism 4.

[0065] Combine Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, an embodiment of the present application further provides a battery processing device, which includes the battery heating device 100 in any of the above embodiments.

[0066] In the aforementioned battery processing equipment, coils 13 are wound around connection ends 111 of magnetic conductors 11, enabling magnetic conductors 11 to enhance the electromagnetic field intensity generated by coils 13. The coil rows 1b on two adjacent heating roller assemblies 1 correspond one-to-one to form a heating coil assembly. Within each heating coil assembly, the coils 13 located in different heating roller assemblies 1 correspond one-to-one. When the heating coil assembly is in the heating state, the electromagnetic field generated by the heating coil assembly can induce eddy currents within the battery 2 located between the two corresponding heating roller assemblies 1. These eddy currents can then directly heat the battery 2, effectively improving heating efficiency and reducing heating energy consumption. Furthermore, because the multiple coil rows 1b on the heating roller assemblies 1 are staggered along the circumference of the rotating shaft 12, each heating coil assembly, driven by the drive mechanism 4, alternately enters the heating state and heats different locations on the battery 2, achieving dynamic changes in the heating position to ensure uniform heating of the battery 2.
