[0058] The battery includes a housing and a wound core disposed in the housing. The housing includes an outer shell and a cover plate. The wound core is disposed in the outer shell and is sealed by welding the cover plate to the outer shell. It is also necessary to inject electrolyte inside the housing, and the electrolyte is generally injected through an opening in the cover plate. The inventors of this solution found through research that during the use of the battery, the charge and discharge of the battery cause the housing to have a certain cyclic strain, and this cyclic strain causes mechanical fatigue damage to the housing, eventually leading to the fracture of the housing. Since the outer shell is an integral body, the main damage location is at the welding position between the outer shell and the cover plate. Therefore, the reliability of the housing can be evaluated through the weld. Based on this, the present invention provides a weld evaluation method, device, storage medium, and electronic device.
[0059] The exemplary embodiments of the present invention will be described in more detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although the exemplary embodiments of the present invention are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present invention can be implemented in various forms and should not be limited by the embodiments described herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided so that the present invention can be more thoroughly understood and the scope of the present invention can be completely conveyed to those skilled in the art.
[0060] The overall process of the present invention includes: obtaining the battery cyclic expansion force through charge and discharge gas tests, designing experiments to obtain the fatigue S-N curve of the weld, calculating the fatigue loss degree of the weld through actual charge and discharge tests, and reliability evaluation.
[0061] (1) Obtaining the battery cyclic expansion force through charge and discharge gas tests. According to the relationship formula between force and pressure: F = P×S, the present invention can infer and obtain the fatigue strength of the weld based on the above formula, where F represents the expansion force of the battery, P represents the pressure in the formula (corresponding to the fatigue strength mentioned in the present invention), and S in the formula represents the area of the outer shell parallel to the electrode surface, that is, the area of the large surface of the battery (in the following description, S is used to describe the fatigue strength of the present invention, rather than the area in the above formula).
[0062] (2) Designing experiments to obtain the fatigue S-N curve of the weld of the battery housing, where S represents the fatigue strength received by the weld, and N represents the fatigue life of the weld under the fatigue strength S, that is, the weld will crack after fatigue N times under the fatigue strength S.
[0063] (3) Calculate the fatigue loss degree of the weld by actual charge and discharge tests. As mentioned above, the fatigue strength Si and fatigue life Ni corresponding to each cycle of the battery have been obtained (i is the cycle number code). Then, for each charge and discharge cycle, the fatigue loss degree of the weld Wi = 1 / Ni. The fatigue loss degree of the weld during the entire life cycle of the battery , where n represents the total number of cycles during the entire life cycle of the battery (for example, if it is required that a certain battery undergoes more than 2000 cycles without weld cracking, then n = 2000).
[0064] It should be noted that during the actual charge and discharge cycle of the battery, the cyclic expansion force changes (because during the cycle, when the battery is at the same SOC (State of Charge, the percentage of the remaining battery charge to the nominal capacity), the thickness of the electrode gradually increases), that is, the fatigue strength suffered by the weld also changes. According to the cyclic expansion force after each cycle and the weld fatigue S-N curve, the fatigue strength suffered by the weld for each cycle and the fatigue life N of the weld under the corresponding fatigue strength can be obtained.
[0065] (4) Reliability assessment. If the fatigue loss degree W of the weld during the entire life cycle of the battery is < a, it is considered that the weld has no risk of cracking during the entire life cycle of the battery; if the fatigue loss degree W of the weld during the entire life cycle of the battery is ≥ a, it is considered that the weld has a risk of cracking during the entire life cycle of the battery, and the point where W = a indicates that the weld just cracks. Theoretically, the value of a should be 1, indicating that the fatigue loss degree reaches 100%; however, in actual situations, metal fatigue has a slow loss in the early stage and will accelerate after reaching a certain level (for example: 60% - 80%, which is related to the material properties); therefore, the value of a can be 0.6 to improve the reliability of the assessment.
[0066] Taking a lithium iron phosphate 166Ah battery as the experimental object, the battery undergoes charge and discharge cycle tests in an incubator at 45°C. During the test, the battery is clamped by a fixture, and the cyclic expansion force of the large surface is detected by a pressure sensor. Exemplarily, the charge and discharge cycle test process: Step 1, constant current charging at 0.5C until the voltage reaches 3.65V, then constant voltage charging until the current is less than or equal to 0.05C (charging time is about 2 hours); Step 2, rest for 30 minutes; Step 3, constant current discharging at 1C until the voltage is 2.5V (discharging time is about 1 hour); Step 4, rest for 30 minutes. The charge and discharge test is cyclically executed according to the change rule of Step 1 to Step 4. It should be noted that: the present invention can set the time of Step 1 - Step 4 according to different working conditions, and the present invention is not limited thereto.
[0067] Repeat the above steps 1 to 4 until the SOH (State of Health) of the battery drops to 80%. Here, C represents the rate, 1C = 166A; the SOH of each cycle is the discharge capacity of each cycle divided by the discharge capacity of the first cycle. One cycle of the battery means the battery has completed a process from step 1 to step 4 once.
[0068] The change in the expansion force caused by the above charge-discharge cycle test process is as Figure 1 shown. From Figure 1 it can be found that when the battery is in the same state, the expansion force gradually increases. To facilitate a clearer observation of the actual change in the expansion force, the present invention plots the expansion force of two cycles against the charge-discharge rate, as Figure 2 shown. Here, a negative rate indicates discharge; a rate equal to 0 indicates standby; a positive rate indicates charge. It can be found from the figure that during the charging process, the expansion force shows an increasing trend; during the standby process, the expansion force basically remains unchanged; during the discharging process, the expansion force shows a decreasing trend. Thus, it can be known that the cyclic expansion force of the battery during the charge-discharge test is periodically changing. Therefore, according to the change law of the cyclic expansion force during the charge-discharge test, the change law of the air pressure during the charge-discharge test can be set, that is, the change law of the air pressure during the charge-discharge test is set to be the same as the change law of the cyclic expansion force during the charge-discharge test, so as to simulate the breathing process of the charge-discharge test and improve the evaluation reliability.
[0069] Optionally, the present invention can simplify the change situation of the Figure 2 cyclic expansion force into Figure 3 , where the time is scaled down proportionally. In the figure, F1 represents the maximum expansion force of each cycle, and F2 represents the minimum expansion force of each cycle.
[0070] As Figure 4 shown, the present invention provides a weld evaluation method, including: S100, S200, S300, S400, and S500;
[0071] S100. Conduct multiple groups of gas injection tests on the battery. Among them, the maximum pressure of the gas injected in different groups of air injection tests is different, and each group includes multiple charge-discharge tests. The maximum pressure of the gas injected in multiple charge-discharge tests within the same group is the same;
[0072] Optionally, during the use of the battery and the charging process, the electrode sheets that make up the core will thicken. During the discharging process, the electrode sheets that make up the core will recover somewhat. During continuous charge and discharge cycles, the change in the thickness of the electrode sheets will cause the outer shell, mainly the surface parallel to the electrode sheets, to bulge out and then recover, bulge out and then recover again, in a cyclic period change similar to respiration. Mechanical fatigue damage will occur at the welding position between the outer shell and the cover plate. The welding position between the outer shell and the cover plate is called the weld seam. When the mechanical fatigue of the weld seam reaches a certain level, the weld seam will crack, the electrolyte inside the battery will leak, and substances such as moisture from the outside will enter the battery interior, affecting the performance of the battery and even causing safety accidents. Therefore, the present invention can, through an inflation test, simulate the mechanical fatigue damage caused by the charge and discharge of the battery, thereby evaluating the service life of the weld seam of the battery, further evaluating the reliability of the weld seam, and thus evaluating the reliability of the housing. The present invention does not limit this.
[0073] Optionally, during the use of the battery, different numbers of charge and discharge processes and different magnitudes of current will cause different degrees of mechanical fatigue damage to the battery. Therefore, the present invention simulates different charge and discharge conditions by injecting gases at different pressures. One charge and discharge gas test can be correspondingly understood as one charge and discharge process. The present invention does not limit this.
[0074] Also, even when the battery is used under the same charge and discharge condition, the battery needs to undergo multiple charge and discharge cycles before the weld seam cracks. Therefore, the present invention can conduct tests in groups. The same group of tests corresponds to multiple cycles under the same charge and discharge condition. The present invention does not limit this.
[0075] Optionally, the present invention obtains the fatigue S-N curve of the weld seam through experimental design. For example, based on the charge and discharge principle of steps 1 to 4 above, the test processes of steps 1.1 to 1.4 of the present invention are set. The present invention does not limit this. When it is necessary to test the fatigue loss under different conditions, the present invention can set different steps 1 - 4, thereby further adjusting steps 1.1 - 1.4 to improve the test applicability.
[0076] That is, in some optional embodiments, the process of each charge and discharge gas test includes:
[0077] Step 1.1, within a first time range, inject gas into the battery to make the gas pressure inside the battery reach the maximum pressure corresponding to the air injection test;
[0078] Step 1.2, within a second time range, control the gas pressure inside the battery to remain at the corresponding maximum pressure unchanged;
[0079] Step 1.3, within a third time range, release the gas inside the battery to make the gas pressure inside the battery return to the pressure before the gas injection;
[0080] Step 1.4: Within the fourth time range, control the gas pressure inside the battery to remain unchanged from the pressure before the gas injection. Among them, the law of air pressure change in the charge and discharge test is determined according to the law of cyclic expansion force change in the actual charge and discharge test. That is, the arrangement order, duration, and magnitude of air pressure change in the first time range, second time range, third time range, and fourth time range can all be determined according to the law of expansion force change in the preset charge and discharge test, which will be described in detail below.
[0081] Optionally, the present invention mainly makes the welds receive a certain pressure by introducing a certain amount of gas into the closed battery case, so that the welds reach a certain fatigue strength. The detailed experimental details are as follows: Take a semi-finished battery without electrolyte, which may only include a case and a cover plate. Connect a hose to the liquid injection hole on the battery cover plate, and then use AB glue to seal the contact position between the hose and the liquid injection hole to ensure the airtightness of the battery case; In order to avoid other weak areas of the battery cracking prior to the welds during the experiment and affecting the experimental results, AB glue can be coated on other weak areas of the battery, such as the explosion-proof valve. Then clamp the battery in the large surface direction, connect the hose to the ventilation device, and the ventilation device is connected to the gas source. The ventilation device can automatically control the amount of gas introduced into the battery case and the ventilation frequency; When the welds of the battery crack, the battery will leak air, and the ventilation device cannot raise the air pressure inside the battery to the set value within the set time, or detects air leakage, and the ventilation device will stop ventilation and alarm.
[0082] That is, optionally, in some alternative embodiments, a fixing glue is coated on the weak parts of the battery to prevent the weak parts of the battery from cracking prior to the welds, where the weak parts of the battery are areas weaker than the welds;
[0083] The other surfaces other than the large surfaces of the battery are fixed by fixing parts to prevent the other surfaces other than the large surfaces of the battery from expanding. The large surfaces of the battery are the two largest side surfaces among the six side surfaces of the battery.
[0084] It should be noted that when introducing 0.3 MPa of gas into the semi-finished battery, that is, the ventilation air pressure P' = 0.3 MPa, the measured expansion force of the large surface of the battery is only about 450 kgf, and the experimental results are as Figure 5 shown, which does not conform to the actual situation. Because during the actual cycle of the battery, the expansion force of the large surface of the battery is mainly caused by the change in the thickness of the electrode sheets; If gas is directly filled into the battery, the six surfaces of the battery case will bulge outwards, resulting in a smaller actual expansion force of the large surface of the battery, which is less than the force value calculated from the ventilation air pressure P' and the area S' of the large surface; Then calculating the fatigue strength of the welds through the ventilation air pressure P' will be greater than the actual fatigue strength S received by the welds, resulting in a large experimental error.
[0085] Based on the above situation, in the charging and discharging gas test of the present invention, except for the two surfaces in the large surface direction of the battery, the other four surfaces are limited by a tooling to prevent the surfaces other than the large surface of the battery from bulging outwards, simulating the real charging and discharging working conditions (in the real working conditions of the battery, the bulging of the shell is mainly concentrated on the large surface of the battery), and avoiding the interference of other surfaces. At the same time, during the charging and discharging gas test, the expansion force of the large surface of the battery can also be detected, and then the pressure received by the large surface can be calculated according to the actual expansion force of the large surface of the battery, that is, the actual fatigue strength received by the weld. The present invention does not limit this.
[0086] The purpose of using the limiting tooling for the other four surfaces is to reduce the expansion of the other surfaces, ensure the stable force on the large surface during the experiment, and prevent it from fluctuating with the experiment time. The deformation coefficient of the material used for the limiting tooling should be small, and steel and the like can be used. The tooling is as Figure 6 shown. Among them, the top, bottom, and side limiting toolings can be combined by bolts; the limiting tooling is connected through the liquid injection hole of the battery to facilitate ventilation into the battery interior. The four surfaces of up, down, left, and right are all limited to prevent the four surfaces from expanding and moving, affecting the force on the large surface and the evaluation conclusion.
[0087] Optionally, the ventilation volume and the ventilation change rule refer to Figure 7 shown. Figure 7 The ordinate of is the fatigue strength value. Among them, step 1.1: within the time range of 0s - 20s (the first time range), the air pressure gradually increases, which is the pressure increase process, equivalent to the battery charging process, and the expansion force gradually increases; step 1.2: within the time range of 20s - 25s (the second time range), the air pressure remains unchanged, which is the pressure holding process, equivalent to the battery resting process, and the expansion force remains unchanged; step 1.3: within the time range of 25s - 35s (the third time range), the air pressure gradually decreases, which is the pressure decrease process, equivalent to the battery discharging process, and the expansion force gradually decreases; step 1.4: within the time range of 35s - 40s (the fourth time range), the air pressure remains unchanged, which is the pressure holding process, equivalent to the battery resting process, and the expansion force remains unchanged (the time for the air pressure change in each step is proportional to the time of the battery cycling process).
[0088] Optionally, each breath is a process of completing steps 1.1 to 1.4. During the charging and discharging gas test, the fatigue damage to the weld for each breath is equivalent to the fatigue loss of the weld for one battery charging and discharging cycle. That is, through the charging and discharging gas test of the empty shell battery, the charging and discharging process of the actual battery is simulated to evaluate the reliability of the battery shell.
[0089] S200. Obtain the number of breaths corresponding to each group of gas injection tests. Among them, one group of gas injection tests corresponds to one number of breaths, and the number of breaths represents the number of charging and discharging gas tests corresponding to the cracking of the battery weld during the process of the group of gas injection tests;
[0090] Optionally, in some alternative embodiments, S200 includes Step 2.1 and Step 2.2;
[0091] Step 2.1: For any group of gas injection tests, during multiple charge and discharge tests of the group of gas injection tests, detect whether the battery leaks air;
[0092] Step 2.2: If the battery leaks air, determine that the weld of the battery is cracked, and record the number of charge and discharge tests performed until the weld of the battery cracks as the breathing times of the group of gas injection tests.
[0093] By the above method, using semi-finished batteries, or even battery casings, without the need for a wound core, the breathing times of the battery under different maximum pressures can be detected, avoiding the use of actual batteries for charge and discharge cycles, greatly saving costs and time.
[0094] S300: Based on the breathing times of each group of gas injection tests, obtain the fatigue life curve of the weld of the battery throughout its life cycle.
[0095] For example, in some alternative embodiments, the obtaining of the fatigue life curve of the weld of the battery throughout its life cycle based on the breathing times of each group of gas injection tests includes Step 3.1;
[0096] Step 3.1: According to the fatigue strength and breathing times corresponding to each group of gas injection tests, fit to obtain the fatigue life curve of the weld of the battery throughout its life cycle, where the vertical axis of the fatigue life curve is the fatigue strength and the horizontal axis of the fatigue life curve is the breathing times.
[0097] Optionally, in the charge and discharge test of the present invention, when ventilating the battery casing, the maximum ventilation air pressure is P', and the maximum pressure of each group of gas injection tests can be defined as the fatigue strength, that is, the fatigue strength S received by the weld = P', thus simplifying the method and improving the experimental efficiency. By introducing gases with different maximum pressures into the battery, different battery pressures are obtained, that is, the weld receives different fatigue strengths. Or, in the charge and discharge test, through a voltage sensor, the large surface expansion force is collected, and the large surface pressure of the battery is determined by calculation as the fatigue strength.
[0098] Exemplarily, the fatigue strengths S are respectively set to 0.3 MPa, 0.25 MPa, 0.2 MPa, and 0.15 Mpa, and air is ventilated into the battery casing according to Figure 7 the air pressure change rule, and the breathing times, that is, the fatigue life N, under each fatigue strength S are recorded, obtaining the S-N curve as shown in Figure 8 , where the breathing times N are the breathing times when the weld breaks. And, N×S^3.731 = 7.543, where R 2= 0.99, indicating a good fitting degree. It should be noted that the R-squared value is an index of the fitting degree of the trend line. Its numerical value can reflect the fitting degree between the estimated value of the trend line and the corresponding actual data. The higher the fitting degree, the higher the reliability of the trend line. The R-squared value is a numerical value ranging from 0 to 1. When the R-squared value of the trend line is equal to 1 or close to 1, its reliability is the highest; otherwise, the reliability is relatively low. The R-squared value is also called the coefficient of determination.
[0099] It should be noted that the law of air pressure change includes the arrangement order, duration of the first time range, second time range, third time range, and fourth time range, as well as the magnitude of air pressure change, etc. The arrangement order, duration of each time range, and the magnitude of air pressure change are sequentially cycled for charging and discharging tests according to the arrangement order, duration of the first time range, second time range, third time range, and fourth time range, as well as the magnitude of air pressure change. Exemplarily, the duration of the first time range is 20s, the duration of the second time range is 5s, the duration of the third time range is 10s, and the duration of the fourth time range is 5s. Within the first time range, the air pressure increases from small to large. Within the second time range, the air pressure remains unchanged. Within the third time range, the air pressure decreases from large to small. Within the fourth time range, the air pressure remains unchanged. Refer to Figure 7 shown. The law of air pressure change is determined according to the law of cyclic expansion force change in the preset charge and discharge test, which can simulate the real air breathing situation of the battery during charge and discharge, that is, simulate the real working condition of mechanical fatigue damage of the battery case weld, and ensure the reliability of battery case life assessment.
[0100] Optionally, the law of air pressure change in the charge and discharge test is equal to the law of cyclic expansion force change in the charge and discharge test, so as to ensure the consistency between the charge and discharge test process and the charge and discharge test process, and improve the reliability of weld assessment. Further, each time range in the law of air pressure change in the charge and discharge test can also be proportionally reduced according to the law of cyclic expansion force change in the charge and discharge test, which can improve the efficiency of the charge and discharge test on the basis of ensuring the assessment reliability.

[0101] S400. Perform multiple cycles of charge and discharge tests on the battery and obtain the fatigue strength corresponding to the charge and discharge test. Among them, one cycle of charge and discharge test corresponds to one fatigue strength.
[0102] For example, in some optional embodiments, S400 includes: step 4.1 and step 4.2;
[0103] Step 4.1. Perform multiple cycles of charge and discharge tests on the battery. Among them, one cycle of charge and discharge test includes a charging process, a first static process, a discharging process, and a second static process.
[0104] Step 4.2: For any charge-discharge test cycle, collect and calculate the corresponding fatigue strength, where one charge-discharge test cycle corresponds to one fatigue strength.
[0105] Optionally, in some alternative embodiments, Step 4.2 includes: Step 5.1, Step 5.2, and Step 5.3;
[0106] Step 5.1: For any charge-discharge test cycle, during the charge-discharge test, collect, via a pressure sensor, the maximum expansion force and the minimum expansion force received by the large surface of the battery.
[0107] Step 5.2: Calculate the expansion force difference between the maximum expansion force and the minimum expansion force.
[0108] Step 5.3: Calculate the ratio of the expansion force difference to the area of the large surface of the battery to obtain the actual pressure received by the large surface of the battery, and record the actual pressure received by the large surface of the battery as the fatigue strength of the battery in this charge-discharge test.
[0109] Optionally, during the charge-discharge cycle of the battery, the expansion force changes. In the present invention, the maximum and minimum values of each charge-discharge cycle are taken to reflect the change in the expansion force of the large surface of the battery, and the results are as Figure 9 shown. It should be noted that the charging process, the first static process, the discharging process, and the second static process of each charge-discharge test cycle are the same, and the charging rate of each charging process, the static time of the first static process, the discharging rate of the discharging process, and the static time of the second static process are the same to ensure the same battery state and improve the test reliability. Among them, both the first static process and the second static process can improve the battery performance stability.
[0110] Optionally, the difference between the maximum and minimum values of each battery cycle (considering the dynamic fatigue effect under similar respiration, the dynamic fatigue caused by air pressure change), and then divided by the area of the outer shell parallel to the electrode surface, can obtain the fatigue strength of each battery cycle (the actual fatigue strength S of the battery), and the results are as Figure 10 shown.
[0111] S500: Determine the reliability of the battery weld according to the fatigue strength of each charge-discharge test cycle, the fatigue life curve, and a preset upper limit value of loss degree.
[0112] For example, in some alternative embodiments, S500 includes: Step 6.1, Step 6.2, Step 6.3, and Step 6.4;
[0113] Step 6.1: For the fatigue strength of any charge-discharge test cycle, input the fatigue strength into the fatigue life curve graph to obtain the corresponding number of breaths, where one fatigue strength corresponds to one number of breaths;
[0114] Step 6.2: Accumulate the reciprocals of each of the respiration frequencies to obtain the fatigue loss degree of the battery weld seam.
[0115] Step 6.3: If the fatigue loss degree of the battery weld seam is less than the upper limit value of the loss degree, determine that the reliability of the battery weld seam meets the requirements.
[0116] Step 6.4: If the fatigue loss degree of the battery weld seam is greater than the upper limit value of the loss degree, determine that the reliability of the battery weld seam does not meet the requirements.
[0117] Optionally, the present invention can calculate the loss degree of the weld seam of the battery over the entire life cycle based on the reciprocal of the respiration frequency corresponding to the charge-discharge cycle number in the fatigue life curve, so as to evaluate the reliability of the weld seam of the battery over the entire life cycle.
[0118] Optionally, the present invention can actually measure the S value of a certain cycle (cycle number), substitute it into Figure 8 the S-N curve shown, and obtain the N value corresponding to the S value. Each S value of each cycle can correspond to an N value. That is, the present invention can, according to the S-N curve of the weld seam, obtain the fatigue life N value corresponding to the fatigue strength of each cycle, and obtain the minimum respiration frequency that can be tolerated in this cycle.
[0119] Optionally, each S of each cycle is substituted into Figure 8 the curve shown to obtain the respiration frequency N under the S value of each cycle. The result is as shown in Figure 11 shown. Among them, Figure 11 the ordinate of : the fatigue life N of the weld seam (the number of cycles that the battery with a cracked weld seam can cycle under a specific air pressure). Figure 11 the abscissa of : the number of cycles actually cycled by the battery (the number of cycles of a normal battery).
[0120] Optionally, according to the fatigue strength and corresponding fatigue life of each cycle of the weld seam, calculate the fatigue loss degree Wi = 1 / Ni of the weld seam when the battery cycles one circle (Ni represents the i-th cycle, and Wi represents the fatigue loss degree of the i-th cycle). The result is as shown in Figure 12 shown. That is, the fatigue loss degree of each cycle: 1 / Ni.
[0121] For example, in combination with the foregoing example, the present invention can calculate the fatigue loss degree of the weld seam of the battery over the entire life cycle . If the upper limit a of the fatigue loss degree of the weld seam is 0.6, since W = 0.22 < 0.6, the weld seam is reliable during the entire life cycle of the battery.
[0122] It can be found from the implementation cases that when calculating and predicting the fatigue damage of the weld seam, it is necessary to first know the cyclic expansion force of the battery. If testing and collecting the data of the cyclic expansion force of the battery, it takes a long time. Through the present invention, the change of the expansion force during the entire life cycle of the battery can be predicted based on a small amount of measured data of the cyclic expansion force, improving the overall testing efficiency.
