Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of battery production and processing, and particularly relates to a battery tab soldering flux dipping device. Background Art

[0002] The battery plates are all equipped with tabs. In each pole group, the tabs of all positive pole plates are located on one side of the top surface of the pole group, and the tabs of all negative pole plates are located on the other side of the top surface of the pole group. The tabs of the same pole are connected in series by cast welding with the busbar; before cast welding the tabs, the tabs need to be dipped in flux.

[0003] However, the devices for dipping the solder flux used in the existing processes generally directly extend the tab into the dipping tank containing the solder flux to dip the solder flux. For example, the Chinese utility model patent with the authorization announcement number CN203956057U discloses a device for dipping the solder flux for the tab of a battery, comprising a fixed plate, a dipping groove is provided on the fixed plate, at least one liquid storage tank is provided on the fixed plate, and the liquid storage tank and the dipping groove are connected to each other through an overflow port provided on the top surface of the fixed plate.

[0004] Directly inserting the tab into the dipping tank containing flux to dip the flux has the following problems: 1. With use, the flux liquid level will change, resulting in differences in the amount of flux dipped on the tab, affecting the welding effect; 2. When dipping the flux, lead alloy debris from the tab or other parts of the plate falls into the dipping tank, contaminating the flux, and the depth of the pole group inserted into the flux is difficult to control. Once the pole group is inserted too deep, these debris may stick to the separator of the pole group, causing a short circuit, which ultimately affects the quality of the battery.

[0029] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0031] See also Figure 1 As shown, the present invention is a battery tab flux dipping device, comprising a slot body 1 for fixing a flux dipping pad 22, and a control system for controlling the lifting of pages in the slot body 1; the control system is used to control the lifting of the flux liquid level in the slot body 1.

[0032] Specifically, in order to facilitate the installation of the flux dipping pad 22 and to use the flux dipping pad 22 to evenly coat the flux on the tab; Figure 8In the present invention, a partition 2 with a rectangular opening 21 is arranged on the top of the trough body 1, and the flux dipping pad 22 includes a porous bottom plate 221 located at the bottom, and a sponge block 222 is bonded and fixed to the upper surface of the porous bottom plate 221; a clamping block 223 is arranged on the side wall of the porous bottom plate 221, and a clamping groove matched with the clamping block 223 is arranged on the inner wall of the rectangular opening 21; and then when in use, the flux dipping pad 22 is installed at the rectangular opening 21 through the cooperation of the clamping block 223 and the clamping groove.

[0033] Furthermore, in the above, when the control system controls the flux liquid level in the tank body 1 to rise to the point where the top of the liquid level is higher than the top of the flux dipping pad 22, the flux dipping pad 22 is wetting; after the wetting of the flux dipping pad 22 is completed, the control system controls the flux liquid level in the tank body 1 to drop to the point where the liquid level is separated from the bottom of the flux dipping pad 22, and at this time, the excess flux adsorbed in the wetting flux dipping pad 22 drips into the tank body 1.

[0034] Based on the above, when the flux liquid level rises to the point where the top of the liquid level is higher than the top of the flux dipping pad 22, the flux liquid level is higher than the upper surface of the partition 2. In order to facilitate the flux immersed in the upper surface of the partition 2 to flow back into the tank body 1, Figure 7 The partition 2 provided by the present invention includes a water-permeable plate body 200, on which two rectangular holes 201 are arranged, and a substrate 202 made of plastic or rubber material is installed on the inner wall of the rectangular hole 201. The rectangular opening 21 is opened at the substrate 202, and a water-absorbent cotton cloth layer is fixed on the upper surface of the substrate 202 and the water-permeable plate body 200.

[0035] In order to facilitate the control of the soldering flux liquid level, a liquid level detection mechanism is provided in the tank body 1; and the liquid level detection mechanism is connected to the control system.

[0036] Based on the above requirements, in order to facilitate the control of the liquid level of the tank body 1 to rise and fall during use, the present invention provides the following several possible implementation methods.

[0037] Method 1: If Figure 2The control system includes a plurality of telescopic structures A30 arranged on the inner bottom side of the tank body 1, the end of the telescopic structure A30 is connected to a containing tank 3 with a water inlet hole arranged at the bottom, the outer wall of the containing tank 3 is provided with a sleeve 31 which is sealed with it, the top of the sleeve 31 is provided with a protrusion protruding inward, and a plurality of groups of springs are connected between the protrusion and the end face of the containing tank 3; and when in use; when the telescopic structure A30 is controlled to extend, the containing tank 3 and the sleeve 31 move upward at the same time, until the end face of the sleeve 31 abuts against the bottom side of the partition 2, and this When the telescopic structure A30 is controlled to continue to extend, the containing tank 3 continues to rise, and then most of the flux located in the containing tank 3 and the sleeve 31 flows upward from the rectangular opening 21 to the wetting flux dipping pad 22, and a small amount of flux flows back to the tank body 1 through the water inlet hole; at the same time, after the wetting flux dipping pad 22 is completed, the control system controls the flux liquid level in the tank body 1 to drop to the bottom of the flux dipping pad 22 when the liquid level is separated from the bottom of the flux dipping pad 22, and the excess flux adsorbed in the wetting flux dipping pad 22 drips into the tank body 1.

[0038] Specifically, the telescopic structure A30 uses a telescopic cylinder and a telescopic motor.

[0039] or Figure 3 The telescopic structure A30 includes an inner sleeve rod 302 and an outer sleeve 301 that cooperate with each other, and an electromagnet A303 and a magnet A304 are respectively arranged on the opposite sides of the inner sleeve rod 302 and the outer sleeve 301; when it is necessary to control the telescopic structure A30 to extend during use, the electromagnet A303 is energized, and the electromagnet A303 and the magnet A304 produce a repulsive effect; conversely, when it is necessary to control the telescopic structure A30 to contract, the electromagnet A303 is de-energized, and the electromagnet A303 and the magnet A304 produce an attractive effect.

[0040] Method 2: If Figure 4 The control system includes a movable groove 4 connected to the bottom of the groove body 1 through a hose 41, and the outer bottom side of the movable groove 4 is connected to a telescopic structure B42 for driving it to move up and down. The telescopic structure B42 uses a telescopic cylinder or a telescopic motor; when in use, the movable groove 4 is connected to the groove body 1 and the connecting device is separated to achieve the adjustment of the flux liquid level in the groove body 1 by controlling the movable groove 4 to move up and down.

[0041] Method 3: If Figure 5The control system includes a convex edge A16 arranged on the inner bottom side of the tank body 1, and a movable block 163 with a gap formed between the circumferential side wall and the convex edge A16 is arranged in the convex edge A16; a magnet B is embedded in the movable block 163, and an electromagnet B is arranged on the inner bottom side of the tank body 1; a through hole 161 is arranged on the bottom circumferential side of the convex edge A16, and then when in use, the liquid level in the tank body 1 is adjusted by controlling the movable block 163 to move up and down; when in use, when it is necessary to control the movable block 163 to move upward, the electromagnet B is controlled to be energized, and at this time, the electromagnet B and the magnet B produce a repulsive effect; conversely, when it is necessary to control the movable block 163 to move downward, the electromagnet B is controlled to be de-energized, and at this time, the electromagnet B and the magnet B produce an attractive effect; and in the whole process, the liquid level of the tank body 1 is higher than the end face of the convex edge A16.

[0042] Specifically, in order to facilitate the control of the upward and downward movement of the movable block 163, avoid the inability to control the upward and downward movement of the movable block 163 due to air pressure, and avoid excessive flux flowing into the convex edge A16 below the movable block 163 when the movable block 163 moves upward; the width of the gap designed by the present invention is 0.03mm; and a limiting boss 162 is arranged in the convex edge A16 above the through hole 161; the convex edge A16 below the limiting boss 162 is connected to the air pressure balance pipe 17 that passes through the slot body 1, and the end of the air pressure balance pipe 17 is connected to the side wall of the slot body 1 above the partition 2, and then when in use, the setting of the air pressure balance pipe 17 is utilized, and when in use, the air pressure inside the convex edge A16 below the movable block 163 can be kept equivalent to the ambient air pressure, thereby facilitating the control of the upward and downward movement of the movable block 163; and the size of the through hole 161 gradually decreases from the inside to the outside, and the diameters at both ends of the through hole 161 are 0.1cm and 0.15cm respectively.

[0043] Method 4: If Figure 6 The control system includes an opening 11 on the bottom side of the tank body 1, and an upwardly protruding convex edge B12 is provided on the inner bottom side of the tank body 1 located around the opening 11, and a movable plate 13 is provided on the convex edge B12 to seal and slide along its inner wall; at least two U-shaped frames 14 are provided on the outer bottom side of the tank body 1, and a telescopic structure C15 is connected to the U-shaped frame 14, and the end of the telescopic structure C15 is connected to the bottom side of the movable plate 13. The telescopic structure C15 uses a telescopic cylinder or a telescopic motor. When in use, the liquid level in the tank body 1 is controlled by controlling the extension and contraction of the telescopic structure C15. During the whole process, the liquid level of the tank body 1 is higher than the end surface of the convex edge B12.

[0044] In the above, in order to replenish the soldering flux into the tank body 1 in time, a feed pipe 10 is also connected to the bottom of the tank body 1, and the feed pipe 10 is connected to the soldering flux storage tank through a pipeline with a valve.
