[0031] Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below. The embodiments described with reference to the accompanying drawings are exemplary. Embodiments of the present invention are described in detail below.

[0032] Since the total length of a roll of film is limited, when each roll of film is used up, the blue film is removed from the reel to the battery cell film attachment mechanism, which will cause waste of the removed film. From the perspective of the mechanical structure of the film coating equipment, the length of the wasted film is 3 to 5 meters or longer. Under normal circumstances, the wasted film can still wrap more than 5 cells. In particular, the blue film needs to be replaced many times a day, and the accumulated waste will be greater. In addition, after the film is removed, a new blue film needs to be pulled into the machine, which will cause too long downtime, reduce production time, and reduce output.

[0033] In order to solve the above problems, an object of the present invention is to provide a control method for coating equipment, which can improve the coating speed and coating quality of the equipment, reduce the cost of manual intervention, and reduce the waste of coating materials.

[0034] Reference below Figure 1 The control method of the film coating device according to the embodiment of the present invention is described with reference to Figure 1 As shown, the control method at least includes step S1-step S2.

[0035] Step S1, when it is detected that the film layer structure is a non-single-layer film, determining a target battery cell pre-packaged with a non-single-layer film during a coating process.

[0036] Step S2, after the target battery cell is coated, the target battery cell is subjected to waste treatment.

[0037] The film coating equipment includes a film guiding mechanism and a detection mechanism. The film guiding mechanism is used to provide the film, and the detection mechanism is used to detect the film layer structure of the film provided by the film guiding mechanism. The specific working principle is that when the battery cell is moved under the film guiding mechanism, the film guiding mechanism sticks the film to the surface of the battery cell, and then the roller rolls on the surface of the battery cell to make the film close to the surface of the battery cell. The servo motor pushes / pull the battery cell to move and drive the film to coat the film on the surface of the battery cell. The film guiding mechanism can provide the film to the battery cell in the form of clamping or adsorption, which is not limited.

[0038] Specifically, since the total length of a roll of film is limited, from the perspective of the mechanical structure of the film coating equipment, a considerable portion of each roll of film cannot be used when it is used up, resulting in a waste of raw materials. In order to reduce the waste of film materials, the film will be spliced ​​and a membrane joint will be generated during the film replacement process, such as Figure 2 As shown, however, if the membrane joint is wrapped on the battery cell, it will affect the insulation and other performances of the battery. In order to solve the above problems, in the present application, the membrane is spliced ​​after the membrane is used up, and the membrane layer structure of the membrane provided by the membrane guiding mechanism is detected by a detection mechanism to determine whether the membrane provided by the membrane guiding mechanism is a single layer. When it is detected that the membrane layer structure is a non-single-layer membrane, it means that the membrane joint is detected, and then the target battery cell packaged by the non-single-layer membrane is automatically discharged directly. This avoids the waste of coating materials and can effectively exclude the battery cell with the membrane joint, so that there is no need to conduct subsequent testing on the target battery cell, avoiding the impact on the subsequent process and the performance of the entire battery pack. Moreover, after the target battery cell is coated, it is discharged, which will not affect the progress of the next coating, thereby ensuring the coating speed of the equipment, improving the coating quality, and reducing the cost of manual intervention.

[0039] Among them, for the waste discharge treatment of the target battery cell, the specific process is that after the controller determines the target battery cell with a membrane connector, it will be displayed on the touch screen, and an NG signal will be provided for the target battery cell with a membrane connector, and it will be transmitted to the subsequent stations of the machine in sequence, so that the target battery cell will not be subjected to subsequent testing after the film is wrapped, and will be directly placed in the waste discharge station to distinguish it from normal batteries; the controller will also give a signal to the next machine at the waste discharge station to remove the target battery cell from the waste and take it out to the waste discharge rack. When the waste discharge rack is full, a prompt will be actively issued to remind the relevant personnel, and then the film of the target battery cell will be manually peeled off and placed at the loading station of the coated battery cell to re-perform the coating and other processes.

[0040] In an embodiment, the detection mechanism can detect the film structure in the form of ultrasound. Specifically, refer to Figure 3 and Figure 4 As shown, the detection mechanism is an ultrasonic detection mechanism, which includes a transmitter and a receiver, and the transmitter and the receiver are respectively installed on both sides of the membrane, the distance between the transmitter and the receiver is fixed, and the membrane is placed between the transmitter and the receiver and has a certain inclination angle. The ultrasonic detection mechanism has multiple switch output states. When the ultrasonic wave penetrates a single-layer membrane and when the ultrasonic wave penetrates a non-single-layer membrane such as a double membrane, the ultrasonic signal received by the receiver is different. Based on this, when detecting the membrane layer structure, if the ultrasonic signal received by the receiver is consistent with the ultrasonic signal when the ultrasonic wave penetrates the non-single-layer membrane, the membrane layer structure is determined to be a non-single-layer membrane, and the corresponding switch output state is output to the controller of the film coating device such as a PLC controller. After receiving the corresponding switch output state, the controller triggers a rising edge pulse to determine the target battery cell pre-packaged by the non-single-layer membrane, and discharges the target battery cell containing the non-single-layer membrane; if the ultrasonic signal received by the receiver is consistent with the ultrasonic signal when the ultrasonic wave penetrates a single-layer membrane, the membrane layer structure is determined to be a single-layer membrane, and the corresponding switch output state is output to the controller of the film coating device such as a PLC controller to inform the controller to perform normal film coating control.

[0041] In some embodiments, in order to improve the coating efficiency and quality, the blue film and its protective film are separated in advance at other workstations, and a certain length of blue film is cached by a blue film cache component to avoid the problem of the film falling off from the surface of the battery cell due to too little tension or the film breaking due to too much tension during the coating process.

[0042] According to the control method of the coating equipment of the embodiment of the present invention, in order to avoid the problem of affecting the quality of the battery cells due to the use of spliced ​​film to package the battery cells, during the coating process, the film layer structure of the film provided by the film guiding mechanism is detected by a detection mechanism to determine whether the film provided by the film guiding mechanism is a single layer, and when it is detected that the film layer structure is a non-single-layer film, the target battery cells packaged by the non-single-layer film are automatically discharged for waste treatment, thereby eliminating the need for subsequent testing of the target battery cells and not affecting the progress of the next coating. This not only ensures the coating speed of the equipment, but also improves the coating quality, reduces the cost of manual intervention, and reduces the waste of coating materials.

[0043] In some embodiments, since the battery cells are pulled and pasted while being wrapped, and the specific length of a roll of film is unknown, the reeling and unwinding part only detects the diameter of the film roll, which is related to the thickness of the blue film. It is impossible to calculate how long the blue film to be used is, nor is it possible to predict in advance where the membrane joint will appear. Therefore, it is necessary to judge the membrane joint during the wrapping process, specifically including: determining the remaining wrapping length required for the battery cell to be wrapped; obtaining the position interval length from the detection position of the detection mechanism to the film guiding position of the film guiding mechanism, and the membrane joint length of the non-single-layer film; determining the target battery cell to be pre-packaged with a non-single-layer film during the wrapping process according to the remaining wrapping length, the position interval length and the membrane joint length. Therefore, by calculating the length of the battery cell that needs to be coated, that is, the remaining coating length, and comparing it with the position interval length from the detection position of the detection mechanism to the film guiding position of the film guiding mechanism and the length of the membrane joint, it is possible to determine in advance which battery cell the membrane joint will appear on, and discharge it accordingly, i.e., the target battery cell, without the need for subsequent testing of the target battery cell, and without affecting the progress of the next coating, which not only ensures the coating speed of the equipment, but also improves the coating quality and reduces the cost of manual intervention.

[0044] In some embodiments, reference Figure 4 As shown, the detection mechanism includes a first detection member and a second detection member, and the film guiding mechanism includes an upper membrane mechanism and a lower membrane mechanism. The first detection member is used to detect the membrane layer structure of the membrane provided by the upper membrane mechanism, and the second detection member is used to detect the membrane layer structure of the membrane provided by the lower membrane mechanism. Based on this, the different positions of the membrane joint will affect the length of the position interval. Therefore, when the controller receives the output signal of the non-single-layer membrane, it will trigger the judgment of the position of the membrane joint, that is, judge whether the membrane joint appears in the upper membrane mechanism or the lower membrane mechanism. Specifically, if the first detection member detects that the membrane layer structure is a non-single-layer membrane, the detection position of the detection mechanism is determined to be the detection position of the first detection member, that is, the output signal of the non-single-layer membrane is provided by the first detection member, and the membrane joint appears in the upper membrane mechanism; if the second detection member detects that the membrane layer structure is a non-single-layer membrane, the detection position of the detection mechanism is determined to be the detection position of the second detection member, that is, the output signal of the non-single-layer membrane is provided by the second detection member, and the membrane joint appears in the lower membrane mechanism.

[0045] In some embodiments, the coating device includes a feeding mechanism to determine the remaining coating length required for the current battery cell to be coated, including: obtaining the total coating length required for each battery cell; when the current battery cell to be coated is pushed by the feeding mechanism for coating, obtaining the current actual position of the feeding mechanism and the target feeding position of the feeding mechanism; obtaining the coated length of the current battery cell to be coated according to the current actual position and the target feeding position; and determining the remaining coating length according to the total coating length and the coated length.

[0046] In some embodiments, the coating device includes a material receiving mechanism to determine the remaining coating length required for the current battery cell to be coated, including: when the current battery cell to be coated is pushed for coating by the material receiving mechanism, obtaining the current movement position of the material receiving mechanism and the target material pulling position of the material receiving mechanism; determining the remaining coating length based on the current movement position and the target material pulling position.

[0047] Specifically, the total length of the film required for each battery cell can be calculated based on the relative distance between the feeding mechanism and the receiving mechanism at different positions. Figure 5 As shown, the coating length S = (A2-A1) + (B1-B2), where A1 is the initial position of the battery cell entering the feeding mechanism, A2 is the target feeding position of the feeding mechanism each time the feeding mechanism feeds, B1 is the initial position of the battery cell entering the receiving mechanism, B2 is the target pulling position of the receiving mechanism each time the material is pulled, and A1<A2,B1> B2. Furthermore, based on the total length of film required for each battery cell, and according to the current moving position of the feeding mechanism or the pulling mechanism, the remaining film length required for the current battery cell to be coated is calculated in real time. That is, when the current battery cell to be coated is pushed for coating by the feeding mechanism, the coated length at this time is S1, that is, the distance the feeding mechanism pushes the battery cell forward, and the remaining coating length L required for the battery cell to be coated is L=S-S1=S-(A-A1), where A is the current actual position of the feeding mechanism; and when the current battery cell to be coated is pushed for coating by the receiving mechanism, the remaining coating length L required for coating is L=B-B2, where B is the current moving position of the receiving mechanism.

[0048] In some embodiments, when the film structure is detected to be a non-single-layer film, the detection mechanism will output the corresponding switch output state to the controller, and the controller will trigger a rising edge pulse, and determine the target cell pre-packaged with a non-single-layer film during the film coating process based on the remaining film coating length, the position interval length, and the film joint length, that is, determine which cell the film joint will appear on. Specifically, the length and value N of the position interval length M and the film joint length L1 are calculated, that is, N = M + L1; refer to Figure 4 and Figure 5As shown, if the remaining coating length L is less than the position interval length, the target cell is determined to be the next cell to be coated of the current cell to be coated; if the remaining coating length is greater than the position interval length, and the remaining coating length is less than the length sum value N, the target cell is determined to be the current cell to be coated and the next cell to be coated of the current cell to be coated; if the remaining coating length is greater than the length sum value N, the target cell is determined to be the current cell to be coated.

[0049] It should be noted that, if the detection position of the detection mechanism is the detection position of the first detection member, the position interval length is L2; ​​if the detection position of the detection mechanism is the detection position of the second detection member, the position interval length is L3.

[0050] In addition, it is understandable that due to the different mechanical structures of the film coating equipment, the length of the position interval between the detection position of the detection mechanism and the film guiding position of the film guiding mechanism may be different, but the judgment method is consistent with the principle of the above method.

[0051] A second embodiment of the present invention provides a coating device, such as Figure 6 As shown, the encapsulating device 10 includes at least one processor 11 and a memory 12 communicatively connected to the at least one processor 11 .

[0061] Exemplarily, the ultrasonic detection mechanism has multiple switch output states. The ultrasonic detection mechanism can be set to have an output signal when a single-layer film is detected, and no signal output when a non-single-layer film is detected. The signal of the ultrasonic detection mechanism is fed back to the controller in real time. The controller determines whether the film layer structure is a non-single-layer film based on the output signal of the ultrasonic detection mechanism, and calculates the target battery cell pre-packaged with the non-single-layer film, that is, determines the position of the waste battery cell.

[0062] In some embodiments, Figure 7 As shown, the film wrapping device 10 also includes a feeding mechanism 4 , a receiving mechanism 5 and a display device 6 .

[0063] The display device 6 is connected to the controller 2 and is used to display the position of the non-single-layer film, the current movement position of the feeding mechanism 4 and the current movement position of the receiving mechanism 5 .

[0064] Specifically, the display device 6, such as a touch screen, can communicate with the controller 2 via EtherNet / IP, and the target value of each servo axis at each working position, i.e., the target feeding position of the feeding mechanism 4 and the target pulling position of the receiving mechanism 5, is set on the display device 6, and is fed back to the controller 2, and the approximate position of the membrane joint detected by the controller 2, i.e., the target battery cell, is displayed on the display device 6.

[0065] In addition, the servo motors in the coating device 10, such as the feeding mechanism 4 and the receiving mechanism 5, can communicate with the controller 2 via EtherCat, and the controller 2 controls the movement of each servo motor to make it reach the corresponding position and complete the instructions given by the controller 2 to the servo motor.
