Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present disclosure relates to the field of battery technology, and more specifically, to a method, device, electronic device, storage medium, and program product for detecting abnormal battery cells. Background Art

[0002] With the development of the lithium battery industry, the requirements for the production effect and energy density of lithium batteries are becoming increasingly higher, and the production process is more complicated. Therefore, it is necessary to perform abnormal detection on battery cells in the battery manufacturing process.

[0003] Existing methods for detecting battery cell anomalies include high-voltage short-circuit testing (or insulation resistance testing) and self-discharge testing. The high-voltage short-circuit test typically involves applying 200-500V AC or DC voltage to cause metal foreign matter or burrs on the electrode surface to generate a sharp discharge, generating leakage current and even puncturing the diaphragm, thereby screening out defective cells. The self-discharge test typically involves exposing the cell to high or room temperature for 3-7 days, and then determining whether there are micro-short circuits within the cell based on the voltage drop.

[0004] Existing methods for detecting abnormal battery cells can only detect abnormalities when dust or burrs pierce the diaphragm. When the diaphragm is not pierced (for example, when there is a small amount of dust), it cannot effectively detect abnormal battery cells, resulting in a high missed detection rate.

[0054] Figure 2 A flow chart of a method for detecting abnormal cells provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure is shown as follows: Figure 2 As shown, the method includes:

[0055] Step S110: determining the battery cell to be tested.

[0056] Specifically, a cell is the electricity storage part of a rechargeable battery, which can also be understood as a single battery. A battery can be composed of at least one cell. The cell to be tested can be the cell that needs to be tested for abnormalities.

[0057] Step S120 , obtaining a plurality of measurement parameters corresponding to a plurality of sequentially performed steps in the battery cell detection process for the battery cell to be detected.

[0058] Specifically, after the battery cell to be tested is determined, a Hipot test (High-Potential Test) may be performed on the battery cell to obtain a plurality of measurement parameters corresponding to a plurality of sequential steps in the battery cell testing process.

[0059] Figure 3 A schematic diagram of a cell detection process provided by an embodiment of the present disclosure, such as Figure 3 As shown, the battery cell inspection process includes the sequential connection of the coiling process, the hot pressing process, the cover laser welding process, the top cover pre-welding process, the laser top cover welding process and the primary liquid injection process.

[0060] For the multiple steps in the battery cell testing process, these steps can be converted into a state sequence based on the Hidden Markov Chain (HMM).

[0061] For each process, the measurement parameter corresponding to the process may be status information of the battery cell to be tested in the process determined based on actual measurement data of the battery cell to be tested.

[0062] Step S130: For each first process, based on the measurement parameters of the previous process and the state transition information corresponding to the first process, determine the predicted parameters of the first process; wherein the first process is a process other than the first process; the state transition information is used to characterize the correlation between the measurement parameters of the first process and the measurement parameters of the previous process.

[0063] Specifically, among the above-mentioned multiple processes, the processes except the first process (i.e., the coiling process) can be used as the first process, that is, the first process can include any one of the hot pressing process, the cover plate laser welding process, the top cover pre-welding process, the laser top cover welding process and the one-time liquid injection process.

[0064] For each first process, the measurement parameters of the process before the first process may be obtained, and the prediction parameters of the first process may be calculated based on the state transition information corresponding to the first process.

[0065] The state transition information can be used to characterize the correlation between the measurement parameters of the first process and the measurement parameters of the previous process. The process of determining the state transition information will be described in detail below. The predicted parameters of the first process can be the state information of the battery cell to be tested in the first process predicted based on the measurement parameters of the battery cell to be tested in the previous process of the first process.

[0066] Step S140 : determining an abnormality detection result of the battery cell to be detected based on the difference between the measurement parameters and the prediction parameters corresponding to each first process.

[0067] Specifically, after obtaining the measurement parameters and prediction parameters corresponding to each first process, the difference between the measurement parameters and prediction parameters corresponding to each first process can be compared to obtain the abnormality detection result of the battery cell to be tested. The abnormality detection result can include a normal battery cell and an abnormal battery cell.

[0068] Optionally, determining the abnormality detection result of the battery cell to be tested based on the difference between the measurement parameters and the predicted parameters corresponding to each first process includes:

[0069] For each first process, if the measured parameters corresponding to the first process are inconsistent with the predicted parameters, the process is determined to be an abnormal process;

[0070] If there are at least a preset number of abnormal processes in each of the first processes, it is determined that the abnormality detection result of the battery cell to be detected is a battery cell abnormality.

[0071] Specifically, for each first process, after obtaining the measurement parameters and predicted parameters of the first process, if the measurement parameters of the first process are inconsistent with the predicted parameters, it means that there is an abnormality in the battery cell to be tested during the first process, and the first process can be treated as an abnormal process; otherwise, the first process can be treated as a normal process.

[0072] After performing the above judgment on each first process, the results corresponding to each first process can be counted. If at least a preset number of abnormal processes appear in each first process, it means that the possibility of the battery cell to be detected being abnormal is relatively high, and the abnormal detection result of the battery cell to be detected is determined to be battery cell abnormality; otherwise, the abnormal detection result of the battery cell to be detected is determined to be battery cell normal.

[0073] It should be noted that when the preset number is set to a small value, cells that may have abnormalities can be effectively detected, that is, the detection rate of abnormal cells is high. However, some normal cells may be identified as abnormal cells, resulting in a high overkill rate. Therefore, the preset number can be set to be greater than half of the total number of cells in the first process. For example, when the total number of cells in the first process is 5, the preset number can be set to 3.

[0074] In the embodiment of the present disclosure, multiple measurement parameters corresponding to multiple processes of the battery cell to be inspected are obtained, and based on the measurement parameters of the previous process of each first process, the prediction parameters corresponding to each first process are obtained. By comparing the differences between the measurement parameters and the prediction parameters of each first process, the battery cell to be inspected is detected for abnormalities. Abnormal batteries without puncturing the diaphragm can be effectively detected, thereby reducing the missed detection rate of battery cell abnormality detection, thereby effectively eliminating abnormal batteries caused by metal foreign matter and diaphragm defects, and improving the quality and safety of the produced batteries.

[0075] In addition, by obtaining the measurement parameters and prediction parameters corresponding to each first step in the battery cell detection process, the status information of each step of the battery cell to be detected in the entire battery cell detection process is provided, which is conducive to further analyzing the cause of the abnormality of the battery cell to be detected when the battery cell is abnormal.

[0076] As an optional embodiment, the state transition information includes a state transition matrix;

[0077] For each first step, the state transition matrix is ​​determined based on the following method:

[0078] Obtaining sample measured voltage values ​​of a plurality of sample cells in the first process, and determining at least two state intervals based on the plurality of sample measured voltage values; the sample cells are normal cells;

[0079] Determine a first sample state vector corresponding to a first process and a second sample state vector corresponding to a previous process based on at least two state intervals;

[0080] A state transfer matrix between a first process and a previous process is determined based on the first sample state vector and the second sample state vector.

[0081] Specifically, the state transition information may be represented as a state transition matrix. For each first process, the state transition matrix corresponding to the first process may be determined based on a large amount of historical data of the first process.

[0082] For each first process, based on a large amount of historical data, sample measured voltage values ​​of multiple sample cells in the first process can be obtained, and the sample cells can be normal cells. According to the distribution of the multiple sample measured voltage values, at least two state intervals are determined, and each state interval corresponds to a state. Among them, the sample measured voltage value can be the voltage value of each phase in the three-phase power supply, such as VD1 (i.e., the first phase voltage value), VD2 (i.e., the second phase voltage value) or VD3 (i.e., the third phase voltage value). The selection of the sample measured voltage value can be specifically set according to the actual situation, and the embodiment of the present disclosure is not limited to this.

[0083] Optionally, the sample measured voltage value may be used as a state representation, a numerical range corresponding to a plurality of sample measured voltage values ​​may be determined, and the numerical range may be divided into at least two state intervals according to a distribution of the plurality of sample measured voltage values.

[0084] For example, when the sample measured voltage value is VD3, according to the process control document, the numerical range of VD3 is determined to be 0-8; after obtaining multiple VD3s of a process, according to the distribution of the multiple VD3 values, if it is detected that the VD3 values ​​are concentrated between 3-5, the numerical range of 0-8 can be divided into three state intervals S1, S2 and S3.

[0085] Among them, the three state intervals can be continuous numerical intervals, such as S1: 0-3, S2: 3-5, S3: 5-8; the three state intervals can also be discrete numerical intervals, such as S1=[0,1,2], S2=[3,4,5], S3=[6,7,8].

[0086] It should be noted that the number of state intervals and the specific range of each state interval can be set according to actual conditions, and the embodiments of the present disclosure do not limit this.

[0087] After obtaining at least two divided state intervals, for the first process, the multiple sample measured voltage values ​​of the multiple sample battery cells in the first process can be statistically analyzed to obtain a first sample state vector corresponding to the first process. The first sample state vector can be used to characterize the distribution information of the sample measured voltage values ​​of the multiple sample battery cells in the first process in each of the two state intervals.

[0088] Similarly, for the process before the first process, multiple sample measured voltage values ​​of multiple sample battery cells in the process before the first process can be statistically analyzed to obtain a second sample state vector corresponding to the process before the first process. The second sample state vector can be used to characterize the distribution information of the sample measured voltage values ​​of the multiple sample battery cells in the process before the first process in at least two state intervals.

[0089] After obtaining a first sample state vector corresponding to a first process and a second sample state vector corresponding to a process preceding the first process, a state transfer matrix between the first process and the process preceding the first process can be obtained by performing vector operations on the first sample state vector and the second sample state vector.

[0090] As an optional embodiment, determining a first sample state vector corresponding to the first process based on at least two state intervals includes:

[0091] Determining, based on a plurality of sample measured voltage values ​​corresponding to the first process and at least two state intervals, a probability corresponding to each state interval of the first process; the probability being used to represent a ratio of the number of sample measured voltage values ​​belonging to the corresponding state interval to the number of all sample measured voltage values;

[0092] Based on the probabilities corresponding to the respective state intervals, a first sample state vector corresponding to the first process is determined.

[0093] Specifically, for each first step, statistics are collected on the multiple sample measured voltage values ​​corresponding to the first step for multiple sample cells to obtain the number of sample measured voltage values ​​belonging to each state interval (i.e., the number of sample cells belonging to the state corresponding to each state interval). For each state interval, the ratio of the number of sample measured voltage values ​​belonging to that state interval to the number of all sample measured voltage values ​​for the first step (i.e., the ratio of the number of sample cells belonging to the state corresponding to that state interval to the total number of sample cells) is used as the probability corresponding to that state interval.

[0094] The probabilities corresponding to the various state intervals are combined to obtain a first sample state vector corresponding to the first process.

[0095] Similarly, the above steps may be performed to obtain a second sample state vector corresponding to a process preceding the first process.

[0096] Optionally, the following Figure 3 The cell detection process shown in the figure is used as an example to illustrate.

[0097] The three state intervals of the coil cutting process are represented as SQ1, SQ2, and SQ3, and the corresponding probability values ​​are PQ1, PQ2, and PQ3; the three state intervals of the hot pressing process are represented as SR1, SR2, and SR3, and the corresponding probability values ​​are PR1, PR2, and PR3; the three state intervals of the cover laser welding process are represented as SG1, SG2, and SG3, and the corresponding probability values ​​are PG1, PG2, and PG3; the three state intervals of the top cover pre-welding process are represented as SD1, SD2, and SD3, and the corresponding probability values ​​are PD1, PD2, and PD3; the three state intervals of the laser top cover welding process are represented as SJ1, SJ2, and SJ3, and the corresponding probability values ​​are PJ1, PJ2, and PJ3; the three state intervals of the one-time liquid injection process are represented as SZ1, SZ2, and SZ3, and the corresponding probability values ​​are PZ1, PZ2, and PZ3.

[0098] On this basis, the state transition matrix M1 from cutting to hot pressing is expressed as:

[0099]

[0100] The state transfer matrix M2 of hot pressing to the cover is expressed as:

[0101]

[0102] The state transfer matrix M3 of the cover to top cover pre-welding is expressed as:

[0103]

[0104] The state transition matrix M4 of the top cover pre-welded to the laser top cover is expressed as:

[0105]

[0106] The state transition matrix M5 from laser capping to primary injection is expressed as:

[0107]

[0108] That is, for the adjacent first process and the previous process, when the corresponding first sample state vector and second state vector are 1*3 vectors, the corresponding state transfer matrix is ​​a 3*3 matrix.

[0109] Combined with the above example, Table 1 shows the comparison of the measured parameters and predicted parameters of each process. As shown in Table 1, since slitting is the first process, there is no corresponding predicted parameter for slitting. The measured parameters and predicted parameters corresponding to the hot pressing process are SR and SR', respectively; the measured parameters and predicted parameters corresponding to the cover plate process are SG and SG', respectively; the measured parameters and predicted parameters corresponding to the top cover pre-welding process are SD and SD', respectively; the measured parameters and predicted parameters corresponding to the laser top cover process are SJ and SJ', respectively; and the measured parameters and predicted parameters corresponding to the liquid injection process are SZ and SZ'.

[0110] Taking the hot pressing process as an example, if the VD3 value of the battery cell to be tested in the hot pressing process is 4, 4 belongs to the second state interval S2, then the measurement parameter SR of the battery cell to be tested in the hot pressing process is determined to be S2; if based on the coiling process of the battery cell to be tested and M1, the predicted voltage value of the battery cell to be tested in the hot pressing process is calculated to be 6, 6 belongs to the third state interval S3, then the predicted parameter SR' of the battery cell to be tested in the hot pressing process is determined to be S3, and it can be judged that the measured parameters and predicted parameters of the hot pressing process are inconsistent.

[0111] Table 1

[0112]

[0113] As an optional embodiment, for each first process, based on the measured parameters of the process before the first process and the state transition information corresponding to the first process, the prediction parameters of the first process are determined, including:

[0114] Determining a measurement parameter of a process preceding the first process, and determining a second state vector corresponding to the process preceding the measurement parameter based on the process preceding the measurement parameter;

[0115] Determine a first state vector corresponding to the first process based on the second state vector of the previous process and the state transfer matrix corresponding to the first process;

[0116] Based on the first state vector corresponding to the first process, a prediction parameter of the first process is determined.

[0117] Specifically, when performing abnormality detection on the battery cell to be inspected, the measurement parameters of the previous process of the first process can be obtained first, and the measurement parameters can be converted into a second state vector corresponding to the previous process. By performing vector calculation on the second state vector and the state transfer matrix corresponding to the first process, the first state vector corresponding to the first process is obtained, and the first state vector is converted into the corresponding prediction parameters.

[0118] Optionally, when converting the measured parameter into a corresponding state vector, the state interval to which the measured parameter belongs can be set to 1, and the remaining state intervals can be set to 0, thereby obtaining a state vector. For example, if the measured parameter is S2, its corresponding state vector can be [0, 1, 0]. Similarly, after obtaining the first state vector, the state interval corresponding to the largest value in the first state vector can be used as the corresponding prediction parameter.

[0119] As an optional embodiment, determining the measurement parameters of a process previous to the first process includes:

[0120] Obtaining the measured voltage value of the battery cell to be tested in the previous process of the first process;

[0121] Determine the target state interval to which the measured voltage value belongs, and determine corresponding measurement parameters based on the target state interval.

[0122] Specifically, to determine the measurement parameters of the previous process of the first process, the measured voltage value of the battery cell to be tested in the previous process can be obtained, and the measured voltage value can be used as the state representation.
