Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of chemical forming and content formation, in particular to an automatic removal tool for a suction nozzle of chemical forming equipment. Background Art

[0002] During the production process of lithium battery cells, formation equipment is needed to perform batch formation and activation on the cells. That is, the cells are charged with a small current to activate the positive and negative electrode materials inside the cells and form a SEI film on the surface of the negative electrode to make the battery performance more stable. Only after formation can the true performance of lithium batteries be reflected.

[0003] During the formation process, the battery cell will produce chemical gas with electrolyte. In order to discharge the chemical gas produced by the battery cell in a timely and effective manner, the formation equipment is equipped with a negative pressure module to absorb the chemical gas. The negative pressure module connects with the injection hole of the battery cell through a suction nozzle to form an air path, and then sucks the chemical gas through negative pressure. However, the suction nozzle will adhere to the electrolyte during long-term use, and crystallize on the suction nozzle, resulting in blockage of the negative pressure module, so there is a need to remove the suction nozzle on the formation equipment for cleaning or replacement.

[0004] The traditional method of manually removing the suction nozzles of the formation equipment has the following disadvantages: 1. When removing the suction nozzles, the arm must be inserted into the formation equipment for operation. The internal space of the formation equipment is complex and narrow, and manual operation is inconvenient, resulting in low efficiency and certain safety hazards; 2. During manual operation, there is a risk of missing the nozzles due to poor vision; 3. The number of nozzles that need to be removed on the formation production line is large and the frequency is high, so manual operation is inefficient.

[0005] Therefore, how to provide an automatic nozzle removal tool for forming equipment to improve the efficiency, quality and safety of nozzle removal has become a technical problem that needs to be solved urgently. Summary of the invention

[0006] The technical problem to be solved by the present invention is to provide an automatic nozzle removal tool for a chemical forming equipment, so as to improve the efficiency, quality and safety of nozzle removal.

The nozzle module is provided with a plurality of nozzle units. When the nozzle unit is located directly below the nozzle, the nozzle is gradually stuck between the two claws of the nozzle unit by lifting the removal tooling. The claws are twisted by force. When the removal tooling is lifted to the highest position, the claws are separated from the contact with the nozzle and reset under the action of the tension spring. Then the removal tooling is controlled to descend. During the descent, the nozzle is clamped by the reset claws to remove the tooling downward, thereby realizing batch automatic removal of the nozzles. Compared with the traditional manual removal, the efficiency, quality and safety of nozzle removal are greatly improved.

[0091] 2. By setting up an electromagnet and a photoelectric sensor, the microcontroller senses through the photoelectric sensor that the removal tool is in place, and then powers on the electromagnet, so that the removal tool can be firmly adsorbed on the working position of the lifting equipment through the electromagnet, and the adsorption can be released by powering off the electromagnet, which greatly improves the reliability and convenience of the use of the removal tool.

[0092] 3. By providing a storage compartment in the frame, the removed suction nozzles or spare suction nozzle units can be stored in the storage compartment, further improving the convenience of using the removal tooling.

[0093] 4. By setting a through-beam sensor in the adjustment slider of the nozzle removal module, it is possible to quickly detect whether the nozzle is completely removed, which greatly improves the quality of nozzle removal.
