In the future, soft-pack batteries are expected to further improve their technical level and meet the demand for batteries in a wider range of fields.

[0003] The soft-pack lithium-ion battery module is an intermediate energy storage unit between the battery cell and the battery pack. It is a modular battery pack formed by connecting multiple battery cells in series and parallel, and adding auxiliary structural parts that play the role of collecting current, collecting data, and fixing and protecting the battery cells. In the process flow of the module section, it is necessary to connect and assemble multiple battery cells with various components such as positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies and bus assemblies, plastic end plates, cast aluminum end plates, etc. Before assembling the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies and bus carrier assemblies, it is necessary to inspect the length and angle of the assemblies to ensure that their dimensions are within the tolerance requirements, otherwise it will affect the assembly compliance of the subsequent process. Due to the large number of external dimensions and the difficulty in measuring the bending angle of the parts, it is time-consuming and laborious to use manual calipers to measure, and fluctuations in employee measurement techniques will also lead to measurement errors. In order to save measurement time and improve detection accuracy, it is necessary to develop an efficient, fast and accurate detection device to improve work efficiency and inspection quality.

Obviously, the following description of the structure of the drawings is only some embodiments of the utility model. For ordinary technicians in this field, other drawings can be obtained based on these drawings without creative work. It should be noted that the description of these embodiments is used to help understand the utility model, but does not constitute a limitation of the utility model.

[0017] Example:

The lower limit value detection slot 11 is used to detect the lower limit value of each side length of the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the busbar carrier assembly, and the upper limit value detection slot 12 is used to detect the upper limit value of each side length of the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the busbar carrier assembly. In short, the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the busbar carrier assembly cannot be loaded into the lower limit value detection slot 11, but can be loaded into the upper limit value detection slot 12, then the size is qualified, and if this condition is not met, the size is unqualified.

[0019] The side lengths of the outer dimension lower limit detection slot 11 correspond to the lower limits of the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collector assembly. When detecting the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collector assembly, the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collector assembly are set corresponding to the side lengths of the outer dimension lower limit detection slot 11. If the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collector assembly cannot be loaded into the outer dimension lower limit detection slot 11, and the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collector assembly are greater than the outer dimension lower limit detection slot 11, If the size lower limit detection slot 11 corresponds to the side length dimension, then the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the busbar assembly meet the lower limit requirements, wherein a first copper bar bending angle detection port 111 is provided in the outer dimension lower limit detection slot 11 for detecting whether the bending angle of the copper bar of the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly is qualified. When detecting the side length dimensions of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies, the copper bar of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies can be inserted into the first copper bar bending angle detection port 111, and if it cannot be inserted, the copper bar bending angle is unqualified, otherwise it is qualified.

[0020] The side lengths of the upper limit value detection slot 12 of the outer dimension respectively correspond to the upper limit values ​​of the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collecting carrier assemblies. When detecting the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collecting carrier assemblies, the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collecting carrier assemblies are set corresponding to the side lengths of the upper limit value detection slot 12 of the outer dimension. If the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collecting carrier assemblies can be loaded into the upper limit value detection slot 12 of the outer dimension, then the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies or the current collecting carrier assemblies meet the upper limit value requirements. If the side lengths If both the lower limit and the upper limit are met at the same time, the external dimensions are qualified; if any side length cannot meet both the lower limit and the upper limit, the external dimensions are unqualified. A second copper bar bending angle detection port 121 is provided in the external dimension upper limit detection slot 12 for detecting whether the bending angle of the copper bar of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies is qualified. When detecting the side lengths of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies, the copper bar of the positive and negative electrode carrier assemblies can be inserted into the second copper bar bending angle detection port 121; if it cannot be inserted, the copper bar bending angle is unqualified; otherwise, it is qualified.

[0021] The utility model can detect the lower limit of each side length of the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collecting carrier assembly through the lower limit detection slot 11 of the outer dimension, and detect the upper limit of each side length of the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collecting carrier assembly through the upper limit detection slot 12 of the outer dimension, and quickly determine whether the dimensional tolerance of the detected parts is correct by visual touch, and at the same time determine whether the bending angle of the copper bar of the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly is qualified. After using the device for measurement, it is no longer necessary to use measuring tools such as calipers for multiple measurements, thereby greatly reducing the measurement time, being more accurate, greatly improving the detection efficiency, and avoiding the outflow of defective products caused by caliper measurement errors.

[0022] As a preferred implementation scheme in this embodiment, it needs to be further explained that the lower limit value detection groove 11 and the upper limit value detection groove 12 of the outer dimension are both located on one side of the dimension detection plate 1, so that the thickness of the dimension detection plate 1 does not need to be too thick, and the dimension detection plate 1 does not need to be turned over during detection, which is more efficient.

[0023] As a preferred technical solution in the present invention, the size detection plate 1 is made of aluminum alloy material to ensure structural stability and thus ensure service life.

[0024] As a preferred technical solution in the utility model, a first arc-shaped groove extending outward is provided at the corner of the lower limit detection groove 11 of the outer dimension (preferably, a plurality of first arc-shaped grooves are provided). If the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collector assembly is inserted into the lower limit detection groove 11 of the outer dimension, it is convenient to take out the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collector assembly through the first arc-shaped groove, for example, by inserting a finger into the first arc-shaped groove, or by inserting a tool into the first arc-shaped groove, and then taking out the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collector assembly.

[0025] As a preferred technical solution in the utility model, a second arc groove extending outward is provided at the corner of the upper limit value detection groove 12 of the outer dimension (preferably, a plurality of second arc grooves are provided). If the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collector assembly is inserted into the lower limit value detection groove 11 of the outer dimension, it is convenient to take out the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collector assembly through the second arc groove, for example, by inserting a finger into the second arc groove, or by inserting a tool into the second arc groove, and then taking out the positive and negative electrode carrier assembly or the current collector assembly.
