[0024] (1) During operation, the battery aluminum shell is installed by the positioning assembly, and then the shift slide moves the positioned battery aluminum shell to the bottom of the molten groove punch. The molten groove punch punches the top edge of the installation groove to form a receiving molten groove. After punching, the shift slide is reset first. After the battery explosion-proof valve is installed in the installation groove, the battery explosion-proof valve is limited by the centering assembly. Then, the battery aluminum shell is moved to the bottom of the laser welder. The laser welder welds the battery explosion-proof valve and the battery aluminum shell together along the edge of the installation groove. The receiving molten groove receives the molten metal during the welding process and reduces the curvature of the top of the molten metal, so that the surface of the weld joint remains flat. The centering assembly is used to prevent the battery explosion-proof valve from being offset due to the influence of the adhesion during welding, further improving the surface flatness of the weld, and making the welds tightly connected and evenly distributed.

[0025] (2) During operation, the battery aluminum shell is positioned horizontally by pushing the positioning side plates toward both sides, and the battery aluminum shell is positioned vertically by pushing the positioning frame, and the battery aluminum shell is positioned horizontally and vertically by the centering assembly, thereby completing the positioning of the battery aluminum shell in a three-dimensional orthogonal coordinate system, and making the groove center of the mounting groove coplanar with the molten groove punching head and the welding head of the laser welder, and accurately positioning the mounting groove to facilitate accurate stamping and forming of the molten groove, and further making the molten metal in the welding process evenly distributed and the surface flat, thereby improving the overall flatness;

[0026] (3) During operation, the second inclined rod pushes the second slider to compress the first spring to generate elastic force as a reaction force, thereby pushing the positioning frame back to adjust the battery aluminum shell in the vertical direction, and the third inclined rod pushes the third slider to compress the second spring to form elastic force, thereby pushing the positioning side plate back to adjust the battery aluminum shell in the horizontal direction, and the second screw rod pushes the two centering sliders symmetrically and together, and then the first screw rod pushes them up and passes through the middle of the centering slot until the upper surface of the crimping support block is aligned with the top inner surface of the battery aluminum shell. The side walls are abutted, and then the second screw is rotated to separate the centering slider, and the crimping support blocks are pushed to both sides synchronously until the two centering top blocks are abutted against the end sides of the mounting groove, thereby completing the centering of the battery aluminum shell, so that the axis of the mounting groove is located in the same vertical plane as the molten groove punch and the laser welder, accurately positioning the battery aluminum shells of various specifications in three axes, and further accurately positioning the mounting groove and the battery explosion-proof valve, so that the final weld width is uniform, the weld surface is flat, and the battery explosion-proof valve is densely connected to the groove wall of the mounting groove;

[0027] (4) During operation, the centering assembly is lowered, and after the receiving molten groove is punched, the battery explosion-proof valve is placed in the installation groove, and then the centering assembly is lifted until the upper surface of the centering top block abuts against the battery explosion-proof valve, and then the third knob is turned to move the transmission slider through the suction screw, and then the suction piston is moved through the suction transmission rod to reduce the air pressure in the air guide pipe, thereby forming a low pressure in the centering assembly, so that the suction through hole adsorbs the battery explosion-proof valve and limits it, and the stability of the battery explosion-proof valve is maintained by the centering assembly itself, thereby improving the flatness of the weld surface by improving the stability.
