Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention specifically relates to a battery adhesive laminating, folding and wrapping method, equipment and system. Background Art

[0002] With the continuous development of battery technology, especially in the production process of lithium batteries, soft-pack batteries and other high-performance batteries, the requirements for the process accuracy of each component inside the battery are getting higher and higher. The battery's gluing, folding, winding and curing processes, as core manufacturing links, directly affect the performance, reliability and service life of the battery. Especially in the gluing and curing process, factors such as the uniformity of the glue, thickness control and curing effect determine the key performance of the battery, such as the sealing, battery capacity, and cycle stability. Therefore, it is very important to carry out high-precision control of these processes during the battery production process.

[0003] At present, the folding accuracy and glue winding process in battery production usually use traditional mechanical equipment and manual operation. However, with the improvement of battery performance requirements, traditional production processes and quality control methods have gradually exposed some problems, mainly including the following aspects:

[0004] The folding of the battery membrane is one of the key steps in battery production. The folding accuracy of the membrane directly affects the contact quality between the battery membrane and other components inside the battery. Due to the accuracy limitations of traditional mechanical folding equipment and operational errors during the folding process, the folding angle, position and alignment accuracy of the battery membrane are difficult to control accurately. This will cause poor contact of the battery membrane in subsequent processes, which in turn affects the performance and quality of the battery.

[0005] In the battery winding process, the uniformity and thickness of glue coating are key factors affecting battery quality. Traditional glue winding equipment often cannot monitor the uniformity and thickness of glue coating in real time, and the glue layer may be too thick or too thin, which in turn affects the overall performance of the battery. Uneven glue coating may lead to incomplete curing of the glue, and even defects such as bubbles and cracks during use, affecting the stability and safety of the battery.

[0006] In the battery production process, the curing process of the glue is also crucial. Incomplete curing or curing defects (such as bubbles, cracks, etc.) will directly affect the sealing performance and mechanical strength of the battery, and thus affect the service life and safety of the battery. The traditional curing process usually relies on manual operation or simple temperature control equipment, which makes it difficult to achieve accurate real-time monitoring and feedback. The occurrence of curing defects usually leads to rework and quality fluctuations, increasing production costs and reducing production efficiency. Summary of the invention

[0007] In order to overcome the shortcomings and disadvantages of the prior art, the primary purpose of the present invention is to provide a battery glue laminating, folding and winding method, equipment and system. This battery glue laminating, folding and winding method, equipment and system solves key technical problems such as inaccurate plate folding, uneven winding and curing defects by integrating advanced image processing technology, visual monitoring and deep learning algorithms, as well as automated feedback control mechanisms, and can effectively improve the automation level, production efficiency and product quality of the battery production process.

[0022] After image segmentation, the features of the glue coating layer are extracted through the convolutional neural network (CNN) to evaluate the uniformity of the glue layer.

[0023] The network input is the glue area image after image segmentation;

[0024] The network output is the glue layer uniformity score, which is a score between 0 and 1. The closer to 1, the more uniform it is, and the closer to 0, the less uniform it is.

[0025] According to the brightness of the glue layer in the image, the brightness of the coating area is analyzed to estimate the thickness of the glue;

[0026] Compare the uniformity and thickness detection results output by the deep learning model with the preset coating standards to determine whether the coating quality is qualified.

[0027] Preferably, the method of inspecting the surface of the cured glue by a high-resolution camera to identify air bubbles and cracks is as follows:

[0029] After curing, an industrial camera is used to capture images of the glue surface;

[0030] The uniformity of glue curing is judged by thermal imaging, and surface defects after curing are confirmed by visual inspection.

BRIEF DESCRIPTION OF THE DRAWINGS

[0053] Figure 1 It is a flow chart of a battery glue-applying, folding and wrapping method according to the present invention;

[0054] Figure 2 This is a structural diagram of a battery glue-sticking, folding and glue-winding device according to the present invention. DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0055] The specific implementation modes of the present invention are further described in detail to make the technical solutions of the present invention easier to understand and grasp.

[0056] Example

[0057] See also Figure 1 As shown, a battery adhesive folding plate adhesive wrapping method includes the following steps:

[0058] The camera monitors the folding process of the battery film in real time, and uses the feature point detection algorithm to detect the folding angle and position of the film. If the folded plate is unqualified, the folding accuracy of the mechanical equipment is adjusted according to the image processing results. If the folded plate is qualified, the glue winding process is entered;

[0059] Use visual sensors to monitor the glue coating during the glue winding process, and use image segmentation and deep learning technology to determine the uniformity and thickness of the glue layer. If the glue winding is unqualified, adjust the glue winding speed and glue coating equipment in real time according to the test results. If the glue winding is qualified, enter the curing process;

[0060] Thermal imaging technology is used to monitor the temperature distribution during the glue curing process, and a high-resolution camera is used to check the surface of the cured glue to identify bubbles and cracks. If the curing is unqualified, the curing equipment is automatically adjusted and rework is performed. If the curing is qualified, the material is discharged.

[0061] This method greatly reduces the need for manual intervention and adjustment by real-time monitoring and automatically adjusting the parameters of production equipment (such as glue coating amount, plate folding accuracy, glue winding speed, etc.) according to feedback data. Automated control can reduce human operating errors and response time, improve production continuity and efficiency; relying on efficient automated detection and adjustment systems, it reduces the need for manual intervention and reduces the cost of manual operation and detection. At the same time, the intelligent adjustment of equipment can ensure the efficient operation of the production line and shorten the production cycle.

[0062] Through real-time data collection and monitoring of each process (such as image data, temperature distribution, glue coating amount, etc.), the entire production process has strong traceability. The production data of each batch can be recorded to facilitate subsequent quality review and fault diagnosis; thermal imaging technology is used to accurately monitor the curing process to ensure the temperature uniformity and quality of the glue curing process, and to detect defects such as bubbles and cracks in time to avoid unstable product performance caused by incomplete curing. This process not only optimizes the quality of the product, but also improves the safety and durability of the battery.

[0063] The method of detecting the folding angle and position of the film using the feature point detection algorithm is as follows:

[0064] Use industrial cameras to monitor the battery membrane folding process in real time, ensuring that the camera can obtain full-view images of the membrane;

[0065] Preprocess the captured original image, including noise removal, contrast enhancement, and edge enhancement;

[0066] The reference images of the membrane before and after folding are used as templates and compared with the images taken in real time;

[0067] By comparing the similarity between the template and the real-time image through a sliding window, the position of the folded part is found and the folded area of ​​the membrane is determined;

[0068] The degree of match between the template and the real-time image is calculated. If the match exceeds a preset threshold, the folding angle and position are considered to meet the requirements.

[0069] By comparing the reference images of the film before and after folding, the feature point detection algorithm can accurately identify the position and angle of the folding area. The sliding window technology can compare the similarity between the template and the real-time image pixel by pixel to ensure high-precision detection of the folding position and angle. This method can accurately determine whether the film is folded as expected, thereby reducing human errors and ensuring product quality; the real-time monitoring of the camera can quickly capture any unqualified conditions in the folding process, and the algorithm-based feedback can quickly guide equipment adjustments to ensure folding accuracy and quality. Compared with traditional manual inspection, the automated system can respond in a shorter time and improve production efficiency.

[0070] Manual inspection is easily affected by fatigue, visual errors or environmental factors in large-scale production, which may lead to omissions or errors in inspection. The use of image processing and feature point detection algorithms can automatically perform the inspection process, greatly reducing human intervention and ensuring that each product undergoes strict and standardized inspection; the algorithm provides a unified standard to ensure that each inspection is carried out according to the same rules, eliminating deviations and inconsistencies in manual judgment. This makes the inspection results of folding angles and positions more reliable and avoids quality fluctuations caused by different manual judgment standards.

[0071] By monitoring the folding process in real time through image processing, problems can be discovered and adjusted in a timely manner, avoiding the accumulation and rework of unqualified products. This allows the production line to maintain efficient operation and reduce waste and downtime caused by errors; this automated detection method reduces dependence on manual operation, reduces the need for manual labor in the production process, and can optimize human resource allocation, thereby reducing overall production costs. In addition, reducing rework caused by errors due to manual operation also helps save material and time costs.

[0072] The method of using image segmentation and deep learning technology to judge the uniformity and thickness of the glue layer is:

[0073] Use industrial cameras to capture real-time images during the glue winding process;

[0074] Using image segmentation technology, the glue-coated area in the image is separated from the background, and the boundary between the glue-coated area and the background is identified through the threshold segmentation algorithm;

[0075] After image segmentation, the features of the glue coating layer are extracted through the convolutional neural network (CNN) to evaluate the uniformity of the glue layer.

[0076] The network input is the glue area image after image segmentation;

[0077] The network output is the glue layer uniformity score, which is a score between 0 and 1. The closer to 1, the more uniform it is, and the closer to 0, the less uniform it is.

[0078] According to the brightness of the glue layer in the image, the brightness of the coating area is analyzed to estimate the thickness of the glue;

[0079] Compare the uniformity and thickness detection results output by the deep learning model with the preset coating standards to determine whether the coating quality is qualified.

[0080] Image segmentation technology can accurately identify the glue coating area, ensuring that every part of the coating is carefully analyzed. Combined with a convolutional neural network (CNN), this method can extract subtle features from the image, evaluate the uniformity of the glue layer, and accurately estimate the thickness of the glue through image brightness analysis. This high-precision detection method can effectively identify any unevenness or substandard thickness that may exist during the coating process, ensuring that the coating quality meets the expected standards; automated detection greatly reduces the subjectivity and operational errors in manual detection, and can ensure that each test meets uniform standards. This means that the evaluation of coating quality during the production process is more objective and consistent, reducing errors caused by manual judgment.

[0081] This method can provide a quantitative quality assessment for each batch of glue layers applied through the uniformity score output by the deep learning model. This standardized quality inspection process can effectively guarantee the consistency of the coating process, ensuring that each product meets the set quality standards, thereby improving the product qualification rate; through accurate thickness estimation, it can avoid quality problems caused by too thick or too thin glue layers, thereby reducing material waste and defective products caused by uneven glue coating. By adjusting the glue coating process in a timely manner, glue materials can be saved, production costs can be reduced, and rework of unqualified products can be avoided.

[0082] The method of using a high-resolution camera to inspect the surface of the cured glue to identify air bubbles and cracks is as follows:

[0083] During the curing process of the glue, an infrared thermal imager is used to monitor the temperature distribution on the glue surface in real time;

[0084] After curing, an industrial camera is used to capture images of the glue surface;

[0085] The uniformity of glue curing is judged by thermal imaging, and surface defects after curing are confirmed by visual inspection.

[0086] Infrared thermal imagers can monitor the temperature distribution on the surface of the glue in real time, thus reflecting the uniformity of the glue curing. Temperature differences during the curing process usually mean that the glue is cured unevenly, which may lead to defects such as bubbles and cracks. Thermal imaging images can be used to detect uneven curing areas early, so that adjustment measures can be taken to avoid problems. For example, if certain areas cure too quickly or too slowly, surface stress concentration may occur, forming bubbles or cracks; by real-time monitoring during the curing process, potential problems in the curing process can be identified and resolved in a timely manner, avoiding complex repairs of defects after curing is completed, and reducing overall production costs.

[0087] After the glue is cured, using a high-resolution industrial camera to photograph the cured surface can obtain extremely detailed image data. This image can be used to detect tiny bubbles, cracks or other surface defects, which, if not discovered in time, may affect the quality and performance of the final product; combining thermal imaging data with visual inspection images can achieve more accurate defect location. Thermal imaging helps reveal areas of uneven curing, while industrial cameras provide highly detailed surface images that help determine the specific type of defects (such as bubbles, cracks, etc.), thereby providing accurate information for subsequent quality control and repair.

[0088] By detecting surface defects in time after curing, the accumulation of defective products during the production process can be avoided. If defective products can be quickly identified and removed or repaired, the rework rate can be greatly reduced and production efficiency can be improved; timely detection of defects during and after the curing process of the glue can reduce the outflow of defective products and avoid waste of resources and time. Through precise detection and control, it can ensure that the glue material is fully utilized and the scrap rate in the production process is minimized.

[0089] The method for confirming surface defects after curing by visual inspection is:

[0090] The image is processed using threshold segmentation to extract possible defect areas on the glue surface;

[0091] By image segmentation, surface protrusions or circular transparent areas are identified from the image and marked as bubble areas;

[0092] The thin and long linear defect areas are identified from the image by Canny edge and marked as crack areas.

[0093] Through threshold segmentation, image segmentation and Canny edge detection, the surface defects of glue can be automatically identified, reducing manual intervention. This not only improves the detection efficiency, but also ensures the accuracy and consistency of detection; threshold segmentation can extract high-contrast areas in the image to accurately locate possible defective areas. Image segmentation methods can be further refined to identify surface ridges or round transparent areas and clearly identify bubble areas; while Canny edge detection is specifically used to detect elongated cracks, ensuring that various types of defects (such as bubbles and cracks) are clearly located and distinguished.

[0094] This method can not only identify circular transparent bubble areas, but also accurately identify thin linear defects such as cracks through Canny edge detection. In view of the different types of defects that may appear on the glue curing surface, the combination of these two technologies makes the detection method more flexible and can fully capture surface defects; for defects that may form under different types of glue materials or different curing conditions (such as bubbles, cracks, etc.), by adjusting the threshold and segmentation parameters, the solution can flexibly adapt to changing detection needs.

[0095] Through image segmentation and edge detection, defect areas can be quickly extracted from a large amount of image data in a short time. The automation and efficiency of defect recognition can significantly speed up the quality inspection speed of the production line, thereby improving overall production efficiency; this detection method can timely and accurately identify surface defects, ensuring that unqualified products can be quickly eliminated to prevent unqualified products from flowing into the next production link or end users. This helps to maintain product consistency and high quality, and reduce rework and resource waste caused by defects.
