Description

Technical Field

[0001] The present invention belongs to the technical field of cutting devices, and in particular relates to a dual-station high-efficiency cutting device for side panels of battery modules. Background Art

[0002] Retired or scrapped battery packs pose significant environmental challenges and require harmless disposal or recycling. During battery module disassembly, some modules are secured with laser-welded aluminum plates around the stacked battery cells. Cutting the aluminum plates to separate the cells significantly hinders rapid module disassembly. Efficiently and safely disassembling retired power batteries into their individual cells requires cutting the side panels, a critical step in module disassembly.

[0003] The existing battery module side panel cutting device needs to move the waste battery module to the bottom of the cutting mechanism when loading, and needs to move the waste battery module out from under the cutting mechanism when unloading, which poses a safety hazard. The worker's body is prone to collision with the device or the corners of the waste battery module, or when the device fails and starts by mistake, serious personal injury accidents may occur. When the waste battery module is heavy, the worker needs to use greater force to move and adjust it, which is inefficient and labor-intensive, resulting in low cutting efficiency.
