[0002] The battery cell cutting and stacking machine includes a pole piece unwinding mechanism, a cutting mechanism and a stacking mechanism, wherein the unwinding mechanism is used to unwind the rolled pole piece at a specified speed and transfer it to the cutting mechanism for cutting. During the unwinding and transferring process of the pole piece, the pole piece traction device in the pole piece unwinding mechanism is the power source for the pole piece movement.
[0003] When the electrode is transferred from the electrode unwinding mechanism to the cutting mechanism for cutting, it is necessary to stop the movement in time to ensure that the cutting mechanism completes the electrode cutting operation smoothly. Therefore, during the entire unwinding and conveying process, the electrode presents intermittent movement, and the acceleration of the entire electrode movement is relatively large, so the electrode is subjected to large forces and the variation range is high. This uneven force will cause the electrode to deform, increasing the risk of battery explosion.
[0004] Therefore, during the unwinding and conveying process of the electrode, how to improve the force uniformity of the electrode to ensure the overall consistency of the electrode is a technical problem that technical personnel in this field currently need to solve. Utility Model Content

[0034] The core of the utility model is to provide an unwinding mechanism to improve the force uniformity of the pole piece, thereby ensuring the overall consistency of the pole piece;
[0035] Another core of the utility model is to provide a battery cell cutting and stacking machine with the above unwinding mechanism.
[0036] The following will be combined with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model to clearly and completely describe the technical solutions in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without creative work are within the scope of protection of the utility model.
[0037] like Figure 1As shown, the embodiment of the utility model discloses an unwinding mechanism, including a traction assembly and a tension adjustment assembly. The traction assembly is provided with a first pole piece traction device 100 and a second pole piece traction device 200, the first pole piece traction device 100 and the second pole piece traction device 200 are arranged at intervals along the conveying direction of the pole piece, and the second pole piece traction device 200 is located downstream of the first pole piece traction device 100 and close to the cutting mechanism relative to the first pole piece traction device 100. By arranging the first pole piece traction device 100 and the second pole piece traction device 200, not only a better power is provided for the unwinding and conveying of the pole piece, but also the traction devices arranged at intervals can effectively isolate the tension of the pole piece, effectively reducing the strong tension generated by the pole piece during the conveying process. At the same time, in order to further control and adjust the tension of the pole piece, the unwinding mechanism provided in this embodiment is also provided with a tension adjustment assembly having a tension adjustment device 300 and a tension detection device 400. During the conveying process of the pole piece, the tension detection device 400 monitors the tension of the pole piece in real time, and feeds back the information to the system to adjust the tension of the pole piece through the tension adjustment device 300 accordingly, so as to ensure that the tension of the pole piece is kept within a preset range during the entire conveying process. In addition, the system can also adjust the operation of the first pole piece traction device 100 and the second pole piece traction device 200 in the traction assembly according to the feedback of the tension detection device 400, so that the first pole piece traction device 100 and the second pole piece traction device 200 have good coordination to provide appropriate power for the unwinding and conveying of the pole piece, and then ensure the uniformity of the unwinding and conveying of the pole piece, and the overall consistency of the pole piece while meeting the cutting mechanism's demand for the pole piece cutting, and significantly reduce the risk of battery explosion.
[0038] like Figure 2 As shown, the first pole piece traction device 100 includes a traction roller 110, a pressure roller 120 and a drive motor 130. A conveying gap is set between the traction roller 110 and the pressure roller 120. The pole piece passes through the conveying gap during transportation, so that the traction roller 110 and the pressure roller 120 abut against the pole piece, and the traction roller 110 is driven to rotate by the drive motor 130. At this time, the friction between the traction roller 110, the pole piece and the pressure roller 120 pushes the pole piece to move along the conveying direction, providing power for the movement of the pole piece.
[0039] At the same time, in order to ensure that the first pole piece traction device 100 drives the pole piece stably, the first pole piece traction device 100 is provided with a downward pressure cylinder 140, and the downward pressure cylinder 140 is connected to the pressure roller 120. The downward pressure cylinder 140 can drive the pressure roller 120 to move toward the traction roller 110 to adjust the distance of the transmission gap, so as to adjust the friction between the traction roller 110, the pressure roller 120 and the pole piece, and then ensure the smoothness of the transportation in the whole production process. In addition, a brush 150 is provided to clean the dust on the traction roller 110 in time to reduce the impact on the pole piece transportation. Of course, it can be understood that the second pole piece traction device 200 provided in this embodiment can also be provided with the above-mentioned structure of the first pole piece traction device 100, and those skilled in the art can design it according to actual needs.
[0040] like Figure 3 As shown, the driving cylinder 310, the rotating shaft 320, the swing rod 330 and the swing roller 340 of the tension adjustment device 300 are installed on the frame 20 through the welding frame 350, wherein the swing roller 340 is connected to the rotating shaft 320 through the swing rod 330, and the rotating shaft 320 can rotate around its own axis. Therefore, when the tension of the pole piece needs to be adjusted, the driving cylinder 310 drives the rotating shaft 320 to rotate so that the swing roller 340 swings around the axis of the rotating shaft 320, thereby pressing or relaxing the pole piece in contact with the swing roller 340, and adjusting the tension of the pole piece. The tension adjustment device 300 provided in this embodiment is provided with two, and the two tension adjustment devices 300 are respectively arranged upstream of the first pole piece traction device 100 and upstream of the second pole piece traction device 200, corresponding to the first pole piece traction device 100 and the second pole piece traction device 200.
[0041] like Figure 1 As shown, the frame 20 for mounting components is movably mounted on the base 10 through a guide rail, and the pole piece is installed through the coil feed position of the frame 20, and the pole piece is transported out of the unwinding mechanism provided in this embodiment through the pole piece outlet. The conveying direction of the pole piece is controlled by the material roller assembly 50, and the position of the pole piece in conveyance is detected in real time by the deviation correction sensor. If the deviation of the pole piece exceeds the preset range, the deviation correction sensor feeds back the information to the deviation correction assembly 40, and the deviation correction assembly 40 adjusts by controlling the movement of the frame 20 on the base to ensure that the position of the pole piece output from the outlet remains within the preset range, providing a good cutting preparation for the cutting mechanism of the next process, and improving the qualified rate and quality of the pole piece cutting.
[0042] In addition, the unwinding mechanism provided in this embodiment can be equipped with two groups of components for unwinding the pole roll, including a main unwinding component 30 and a spare unwinding component 31. Both the main unwinding component 30 and the spare unwinding component 31 can be rotatably installed on the frame 20. When working, the pole roll can be installed on the main unwinding component 30, and the spare unwinding component 31 is used as a spare. When needed, it can be replaced in time to reduce downtime, ensure the efficient operation of the unwinding mechanism, and meet the needs of fast production rhythm.
[0043] like Figure 1 As shown, the frame 20 is also equipped with a tape splicing platform 60 and a coil diameter measuring component 70. When replacing materials, the tape splicing platform 60 is used to achieve rapid splicing between the replaced materials, further ensuring the transmission efficiency of the pole piece. The main unwinding component 30 performs real-time detection on the upper pole roll of the main unwinding component 30 or the spare unwinding component 31. After the pole roll is unwound, the coil diameter measuring component 70 will sound an alarm to prompt the staff to replace it in time.
[0044] In a specific embodiment, a buffer assembly 500 is further provided between the first pole piece traction device 100 and the second pole piece traction device 200, and the buffer assembly 500 is closer to the second pole piece traction device 200 relative to the first pole piece traction device 100. The buffer assembly 500 is provided with a plurality of buffer rollers 510, and the pole pieces pass through the buffer rollers 510 in sequence during the conveying process, and the buffer rollers 510 can slide on the frame 20.
[0045] Therefore, when the first pole piece device 100 is unwinding the pole piece conveyance and the cutting mechanism is performing gap cutting of the pole piece, when the second pole piece traction device 200 stops conveying the pole piece, the cache roller 510 is moved to increase the length of the pole piece around the cache component 500, thereby temporarily storing the pole piece conveyed from the upstream. When it is necessary to continue conveying, the cache roller 510 can be adjusted again to shorten the length of the pole piece around the cache component 500. Thereby, through the cache component 500, the operation of the unwinding mechanism and the cutting mechanism provided in this embodiment are more matched, thereby further improving the uniformity of unwinding and conveying, and improving the consistency of the pole piece during the unwinding and conveying process.
[0046] like Figure 1 As shown, downstream of the belt connection platform 60, there are air knife dust removal components (80) and iron removal components 90 arranged in sequence at intervals. The air knife dust removal components 80 remove dust on the pole piece through airflow, and the iron removal components 90 adsorb and clean iron filings attached to the pole piece. In addition, the air knife dust removal components 80 and the iron removal components 90 are each provided with two groups arranged on the two sides of the pole piece, respectively, to ensure that both sides of the pole piece can be well cleaned.
[0047] The embodiment of the utility model further discloses a battery cell cutting and stacking machine, including a reeling mechanism. Since the battery cell cutting and stacking machine has the reeling mechanism, it has all the technical effects of the reeling mechanism, which will not be described in detail herein.
