Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention relates to the field of blade battery manufacturing, and in particular to a water-cooled capacity-dividing integrated machine. Background Art

[0002] In the battery production process, capacity classification refers to subjecting the activated blade batteries to several full-load charge and discharge cycles to test the internal resistance and charge and discharge capacity. This is used to eliminate batteries with quality problems (such as too low capacity, too much self-discharge, too much internal resistance), and to group the batteries by capacity and internal group in order to select batteries with similar performance to form a battery pack.

[0003] The invention patent with publication number CN117766885A proposes a motion mechanism for blade lithium-ion battery testing, which charges and discharges the blade battery by pressing the blade battery up and down through the bracket connected to the cylinder. The operation of the device and the charging and discharging of the battery generate a lot of heat; at the same time, because the positive pin plate assembly and the negative pin plate assembly dock the blade battery from the top and bottom respectively, the device occupies a larger space than the square battery capacity division device. The overheating problem and the large size problem have an adverse effect on the efficiency of the capacity division process. Summary of the invention

[0007] The lower surface of the top air duct 34 is connected to several top fan assemblies 3 arranged side by side on the left and right, and the top fan assembly 3 can blow air from the sub-capacity box into the top air duct 34; the side air duct 24 is provided with a middle fan assembly 2, a water-cooled plate assembly 4 and a lower fan assembly 1 from top to bottom; the middle fan assembly 2 can blow air from top to bottom, the water-cooled plate assembly 4 is connected to an external water cooling mechanism, and the lower fan assembly 1 can blow air from the side air duct 24 into the sub-capacity box, so that the cooled air flows through the negative electrode needle plate assembly 7, the battery tray 57 and the positive electrode genuine assembly 6 and is then blown into the top air duct 34 by the top fan assembly 3 again.

[0008] More specifically, the top fan assembly 3 includes a top fan plate 32 , on which a plurality of top fans 31 are arranged; a top fan handle 33 is arranged at the front end of the top fan plate 32 , which can be pulled forward to extract the top fan assembly 3 .
