[0028] See also Figure 1 , an embodiment of the present invention provides a quality monitoring method for a negative pressure formation production line, which is applicable to electronic equipment.
[0029] In the following method embodiments, for ease of description, the execution subject of each step of the method is taken as an electronic device as an example for illustration, but this does not constitute a specific limitation.
[0030] like Figure 1 As shown, the method may include the following steps:
[0031] Step 110, set pipeline detection parameters, perform pipeline patency monitoring and air tightness detection on the negative pressure system, if the patency or air tightness detection of the negative pressure system does not meet the set requirements, the negative pressure system is maintained and an early warning is issued.
[0032] In one possible implementation, a tray carrying batteries is fed into a forming press, the tray is controlled not to be pressed so that the nozzle is in a suspended state, a negative pressure test value is set, the proportional valve and the solenoid valve are opened, and the data of the negative pressure gauge is read when the negative pressure system reaches the negative pressure test value. If the value of the negative pressure gauge exceeds the set value, the negative pressure system is maintained and an alarm is issued.
[0033] In one possible implementation, the tray is controlled to be pressed so that the nozzle contacts the battery, the negative pressure fluctuation range is set, the proportional valve and the solenoid valve are opened to read the data of the negative pressure gauge, and the solenoid valve is closed when the data of the negative pressure gauge reaches the negative pressure fluctuation range, and the vacuum leakage rate of the negative pressure is calculated. If the vacuum leakage rate is greater than the set value, the negative pressure system is maintained and an alarm is issued.
[0034] Step 130, performing contact impedance detection on the battery, if the impedance between the probe and the battery is greater than the set parameter, the probe system is maintained and an alarm is issued, if the number of probe pressing times is greater than the set value, the probe is replaced and an alarm is issued.
[0035] In one possible implementation, a tray carrying batteries is fed into a forming press, the tray is controlled to be pressed so that the probe contacts the battery pole, the battery is charged with a constant current to obtain a voltage value, and the impedance between the probe and the battery is calculated based on the current value of the constant current charging and the obtained voltage value. If the impedance is greater than the set value, the probe system is maintained and an alarm is issued.
[0036] In a possible implementation, a pressing threshold of the probe is set, and the pressing operation of the probe is monitored. If the number of pressing times of the probe is greater than the pressing threshold, the probe is replaced and an early warning is issued.
[0037] Step 150, setting sensors at the extension and retraction positions of the cylinder to obtain the extension time and retraction time of the cylinder. If the extension time and retraction time do not meet the set conditions, the cylinder is maintained and an alarm is issued.
[0038] In one possible implementation, a sensor is provided at the extended position and the retracted position of the cylinder, and timing starts when the extension signal is detected. Timing is stopped when the retraction signal is detected to obtain the extension and retraction duration. The extension and retraction duration of the cylinder in a normal state and in an operating state are obtained. If the difference between the extension and retraction duration in a normal state and in an operating state is greater than a set value, the cylinder is maintained and an alarm is issued.
[0039] The sensor is used to generate an extension signal when the cylinder is extended in the extended position, and to generate a retraction signal when the cylinder is retracted in the retracted position.
[0040] Step 170, a temperature sensor is provided inside the press to detect the temperature difference inside the press in the working state and during operation. If the temperature difference exceeds a set value, a heat dissipation system warning is issued.
[0041] In one possible implementation, a temperature sensor is provided inside the press to collect the temperature value of the temperature sensor when the device is in a normal state and the temperature value of the temperature sensor when the device is in operation. If the difference between the temperature value of the temperature sensor in a normal state and the temperature value of the temperature sensor when the device is in operation is greater than a set value, a cooling system warning is issued.
[0042] Among them, the temperature sensor is used to obtain the temperature data inside the press in real time
[0043] Through the above process, the embodiment of the present invention first sets the pipeline detection parameters, monitors the pipeline patency and airtightness of the negative pressure system, and if the patency or airtightness of the negative pressure system does not meet the set requirements, the negative pressure system is maintained and an early warning is issued, and the battery is tested for contact impedance. If the impedance between the probe and the battery is greater than the set parameters, the probe system is maintained and an early warning is issued. If the number of probe pressing times is greater than the set value, the probe is replaced and an early warning is issued. Sensors are set at the extension and retraction positions of the cylinder to obtain the extension time and retraction time of the cylinder. If the extension time and retraction time do not meet the set conditions, the cylinder is maintained and an early warning is issued. A temperature sensor is set inside the press to detect The temperature difference inside the pressure measuring bed in the working state and in operation, if the temperature difference exceeds the set value, the heat dissipation system warning will be issued. By comprehensively setting a number of key detection parameters, accurate monitoring and maintenance warning of the negative pressure system, battery probe system, cylinder operation and temperature status of the press are achieved, ensuring the stability of the process environment, improving the reliability of the probe system, reducing the failure rate, effectively preventing the risk of overheating, and ensuring production safety and product quality. It not only significantly improves the level of automated maintenance of the production line, but also enhances the fault warning capability, thereby effectively solving the problem of the existing technology that the failure rate of equipment is difficult to reduce due to the automation and high integration of negative pressure forming equipment.
[0044] In one application scenario, a quality monitoring method for a negative pressure forming production line is run using the quality monitoring system for the negative pressure forming production line of the present invention, which may include the following four steps:
[0045] The first step is to conduct pipeline patency and air tightness tests on the negative pressure system through the negative pressure monitoring system.
[0046] Specifically, the tray carrying the batteries is sent into the forming press, and the tray is controlled not to be pressed, so that the suction nozzle is in a suspended state, that is, connected to the atmosphere, and the negative pressure value is set to -A1kPa. The proportional valve and the solenoid valve are opened, and the data of the negative pressure gauge is read. When the value of the negative pressure gauge is less than -A2kPa, it indicates that the negative pressure system pipeline is not unobstructed, and the negative pressure system is maintained and warned.
[0047] Furthermore, the tray is controlled to be pressed so that the nozzle contacts the battery, the negative pressure value is set to -X1kPa, the proportional valve and the solenoid valve are opened, and the data of the negative pressure gauge is read. When the value of the negative pressure gauge reaches -X1±X2 kPa, the solenoid valve is closed, and the negative pressure leakage rate is calculated after maintaining the pressure for T1min. When the vacuum leakage rate is ≥Y1 kPa / min, it indicates that the airtightness of the negative pressure system is poor, and the negative pressure system should be maintained and warned.
[0048] Among them, A1, A2, X1, X2, T1 and Y1 are set to arbitrary constants according to specific circumstances and are not limited here.
[0049] The second step is to monitor the probe through the probe monitoring system.
[0050] Specifically, a tray carrying batteries is fed into a forming press, and the tray is controlled to be pressed together so that a probe contacts a battery pole to perform contact impedance detection on the battery.
[0051] like Figure 2 As shown, a charging and discharging device is used to perform constant current charging on the battery through A- and A+, and the constant current charging current is set to I. At the same time, the voltage V between V+ and VA+, and between VA- and V- is monitored, and the impedance R=V / I is calculated. The impedance threshold R1 is set. If R>R1mΩ, it is determined that the probe system needs maintenance and an early warning is issued.
[0052] Furthermore, a probe pressing threshold is set, the number of probe pressing times is monitored, and the number of probe pressing times C is recorded. After each pressing, C=C+1. If C is greater than the set pressing threshold, it is determined that the probe needs to be replaced and an early warning is issued.
[0053] The third step is to monitor the cylinder through the cylinder monitoring system.
[0054] like Figure 3 As shown, a sensor is set at the extended position and retracted position of the cylinder to detect the cylinder in place, and the time difference threshold between the extension and retraction of the cylinder is set to Z. When the cylinder is in the extended position, the extension sensor generates a signal I1, and when the cylinder is in the retracted position, the retraction sensor generates a signal I2. When the system detects the signal I1 and gives a signal to drive the cylinder to move, the timing starts, and when the system receives the signal I2, the timing stops. When the cylinder is normal, the time from I1 to I2 is set to T1. The time for the cylinder to move from I1 to I2 during operation is T 2, When T2-T1>Z, it indicates that the cylinder system needs maintenance and an early warning is issued.
[0055] Wherein, Z is set to an arbitrary constant according to specific circumstances and is not limited here.
[0056] The fourth step is to monitor the heat dissipation of the press through the heat dissipation monitoring system.
[0057] like Figure 4 As shown, a temperature probe, i.e., a temperature sensor, is provided inside the press, and the temperature difference threshold is set to M for real-time detection of the temperature inside the press. The temperature value of the temperature sensor collected when the equipment is in normal working condition is set to C1, and the temperature value of the temperature sensor collected in real time during operation of the equipment is C2; when C2-C1>M, it indicates that the cooling system needs maintenance, and an early warning is issued.
[0058] Wherein, M is set to an arbitrary constant according to specific circumstances and is not limited here.
[0059] Through the above process, the embodiment of the present invention realizes accurate monitoring and maintenance warning of the negative pressure system, battery probe system, cylinder operation and press temperature status by comprehensively setting multiple key detection parameters. Specifically, by real-time monitoring of the patency and airtightness of the negative pressure system, system failure is effectively prevented and the stability of the process environment is ensured; strict control of the battery contact impedance not only improves the reliability of the probe system, but also extends the equipment life and reduces the failure rate through the management of the number of pressing times; monitoring of the extension and retraction time of the cylinder further optimizes the equipment operation efficiency, and timely maintenance avoids production delays; and dynamic monitoring of the temperature difference inside the press effectively prevents the risk of overheating and ensures production safety and product quality. The implementation of this series of measures not only significantly improved the level of automated maintenance of the production line, but also enhanced the fault warning capability, laying a solid foundation for achieving efficient and stable continuous production.
[0060] In another application scenario, Figure 5 A quality monitoring system 800 for a negative pressure forming production line is demonstrated.
[0061] The quality monitoring system 800 of the negative pressure formation production line includes but is not limited to: a negative pressure monitoring system 810 , a heat dissipation monitoring system 820 , a cylinder monitoring system 830 and a probe monitoring system 840 .
[0062] Among them, the negative pressure detection system 810 is used to set and detect the patency of the negative pressure system pipeline and the air tightness of the negative pressure system, the heat dissipation monitoring system 820 is used to monitor the internal temperature of the press, the cylinder monitoring system 830 is used to detect the cylinder running time, and the probe monitoring system 840 is used to detect the probe contact impedance and the number of probe pressing times.
[0063] Further, the cylinder monitoring system 830 includes an extension sensor and a retraction sensor, and the heat dissipation monitoring system 820 includes a temperature sensor.
[0064] The extension sensor is arranged at the extension position of the cylinder, the retraction sensor is arranged at the retraction position of the cylinder, and the temperature sensor is arranged inside the press.
[0065] Through the above steps, the quality monitoring system in the embodiment of the present invention realizes comprehensive monitoring of key links of the production line by integrating four major monitoring systems: negative pressure, heat dissipation, cylinder and probe, ensuring the stable operation of the negative pressure system, effectively improving the quality and efficiency of battery formation, and not only monitoring the probe contact impedance and the number of pressing times, but also monitoring the internal temperature of the press in real time through the temperature sensor to prevent the risk of overheating, ensuring equipment safety and product quality. The cylinder monitoring system accurately records the cylinder operation time through the extension and retraction sensors, timely discovers potential faults, and reduces the risk of production interruption. The comprehensive application of this series of monitoring systems has significantly enhanced the self-diagnosis and maintenance capabilities of the production line, providing solid technical support for efficient and stable battery production.
[0066] It should be noted that the quality monitoring of the negative pressure formation production line provided in the above embodiment is only illustrated by the division of the above-mentioned functional modules. In actual applications, the above-mentioned functions can be assigned to different functional modules as needed, that is, the internal structure of the quality monitoring system of the negative pressure formation production line will be divided into different functional modules to complete all or part of the functions described above.
[0067] In addition, the quality monitoring system of the negative pressure formation production line provided in the above embodiments and the quality monitoring method of the negative pressure formation production line belong to the same concept, and the specific way in which each module performs the operation has been described in detail in the method embodiment and will not be repeated here.
