[0039] See also Figure 1 and Figure 4 As shown, an embodiment of the utility model provides a winding device, including a glue sticking device and a winding device. The pole piece strip A has pole lug areas A1 arranged at intervals along its length direction, and each pole lug area A1 is welded with a pole lug B. The glue sticking device is used to stick a first tape C1 and a second tape C2 to the two sides of each pole lug area A1, respectively, to protect the pole lug B of the pole lug area A1. The winding device is used to wind a multilayer strip containing the pole piece strip A to form a battery cell. It should be noted that the pole piece strip A can be a positive pole piece, and of course it can also be a negative pole piece, which is not limited here.

[0040] In an embodiment of the present application, the pole piece strip A also has a plurality of bending regions A2 adjacent to the plurality of pole tab regions A1 in one-to-one correspondence, that is, each pole tab region A1 has a bending region A2 adjacent thereto. The gluing device comprises a bending mechanism 10, a first gluing mechanism 20 and a second gluing mechanism 30. The bending mechanism 10 is used to bend the bending region A2 on the pole piece strip A to form a wrinkle portion A3 on one side of the pole piece strip A. The first gluing mechanism 20 is arranged at the bending mechanism 10, and is used to stick the first tape C1 to the side of the pole piece strip A away from the wrinkle portion A3 to cover an adjacent group of pole tab regions A1 and bending regions A2. The second gluing mechanism 30 is arranged downstream of the bending mechanism 10, and is used to stick the second tape C2 to the side of the pole piece strip A away from the first tape C1 to cover an adjacent group of pole tab regions A1 and bending regions A2.

[0041] In the actual use of the above-mentioned gluing device, the pole piece strip A is conveyed downstream; whenever a group of adjacent pole tab areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece strip A pass through the bending mechanism 10 and the first gluing mechanism 20, the bending mechanism 10 applies a force to the bending area A2, so that the pole piece strip A is bent toward one side of the pole piece strip A at the bending area A2, thereby forming a wrinkle A3 on one side of the pole piece strip A. Then, the first gluing mechanism 20 adheres the first tape C1 to the pole piece strip A, so that the first tape C1 covers the group of pole tab areas A1 and bending areas A2, so that the first tape C1 shapes the bending area A2 of the pole piece strip A to prevent the pole piece strip A from being flattened after bending. Then, the pole piece strip A continues to be conveyed downstream until the group of pole tab areas A1 and bending areas A2 reach the second gluing mechanism 30. At this time, the second adhesive tape 30 adheres the second tape C2 to the side of the pole piece strip A away from the first tape C1 (i.e., to the side of the pole piece strip A having the folded portion A3), so that the second tape C2 covers the group of pole ear areas A1 and the bending area A2, and then under the action of the second tape C2, the folded portion A3 is stacked between the pole piece strip A and the second tape C2.

[0042] In this way, the first tape C1 and the second tape C2 are respectively pasted on both sides of the pole piece strip A by using a glue sticking device, and the first tape C1 covers a group of adjacent pole tab areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece strip A, and the second tape C2 also covers the group of pole tab areas A1 and bending areas A2. On the one hand, the first tape C1 and the second tape C2 are used to protect the pole tab B in the pole tab area A1. On the other hand, since a folded portion A3 is formed between the second tape C2 and the pole piece strip A, the folded portion A3 can be adaptively opened to play a buffering role when the pole piece strip A is pulled, that is, a certain amount of stretching is reserved, which greatly reduces the risk of the pole piece strip A being torn. It should be noted that the upstream and downstream in this article are relative to the conveying direction of the pole piece strip A, that is, the position where the pole piece strip A arrives first is the upstream, and the position where the pole piece strip A arrives later is the downstream.

[0043] See also Figures 1 to 4As shown, in the embodiment of the present application, the bending mechanism 10 includes a support platform 11 and a pressure roller 12. The support platform 11 has a bending slit 114. The pressure roller 12 is used to press the pole piece strip A passing through the support platform 11 into the bending slit 114 and form a folded portion A3. The first adhesive mechanism 20 is arranged relative to the support platform 11, and is used to stick the first adhesive tape C1 to the pole piece strip A passing through the support platform 11. In this way, whenever a group of adjacent pole lug areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole sheet material strip A arrives on the support platform 11: first, the pressure roller 12 presses the bending area A2 of the pole sheet material strip A until the bending area A2 of the pole sheet material strip A is pressed into the bending slit 114 on the support platform 11, that is, the bending area A2 of the pole sheet material strip A is bent into the bending slit 114 to form a folded portion A3; then, the first gluing mechanism 20 sticks the first tape C1 to the group of pole lug areas A1 and bending areas A2 of the pole sheet material strip A, that is, the first tape C1 is stuck to the side of the pole sheet material strip A away from the folded portion A3, and covers the group of pole lug areas A1 and bending areas A2; then, the pole sheet material strip A continues to be conveyed downstream.

[0044] Specifically in the embodiment, the support platform 11 includes a first support block 110 and a second support block 112 arranged downstream of the first support block 110, and the gap between the first support block 110 and the second support block 112 is the above-mentioned bending slit 114. In this way, when a group of adjacent pole ear areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole sheet material strip A arrives on the support platform 11, the first support block 110 and the second support block 112 are used to support the passing pole sheet material strip A, and the pole ear area A1 is located on the second support block 112, and part of the bending area A2 is located on the first support block 110, and the other part is located on the second support block 112, so that the pressure roller 12 presses the bending area A2 into the bending slit 114 between the first support block 110 and the second support block 112 and bends it to form the folded portion A3.

[0045] Specifically in the embodiment, the winding device further includes a buffer device (not shown) arranged upstream of the glue sticking device, and the buffer device is used to buffer the passing pole piece strip A. In this way, in the process of the pressing roller 12 pressing the pole piece strip A to enter the bending slit 114, under the pressing action of the pressing roller 12, the upstream buffer device releases part of the pole piece strip A, so that the bending area A2 located on the first support block 110 moves downstream and enters the bending slit 114, thereby preventing the pole ear area A1 located on the second support block 112 from moving upstream and entering the bending slit 114, thereby ensuring that the material forming the fold portion A3 is the bending area A2 of the pole piece strip A, rather than the pole ear area A1 of the pole piece strip A.

[0046] In some embodiments, the pressing roller 12 can also be controlled to be withdrawn from the folded portion A3 to avoid the pressing roller 12 being located in the folded portion A3 and preventing the pole sheet strip A from continuing to be transported downstream.

[0047] Specifically, the bending mechanism 10 also includes a bending drive assembly (not shown in the figure), the driving end of which is connected to the pressure roller 12, so that the bending drive assembly can drive the pressure roller 12 to move along the first direction X1 and the second direction X2, and the first direction X1 intersects with the second direction X2. When the pressure roller 12 moves along the first direction X1, it can press the bending area A2 of the electrode sheet strip A into the bending slit 114 to form a folded portion A3. When the pressure roller 12 moves along the second direction X2, it can be pulled out of the folded portion A3, so that the pressure roller 12 is separated from the electrode sheet strip A, and the electrode sheet strip A can continue to be transported downstream.

[0048] In this way, whenever a group of adjacent pole ear areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole sheet material strip A pass through the first support block 110 and the second support block 112: control the pressure roller 12 to move along the first direction X1, so that the pressure roller 12 gradually approaches the pole sheet material strip A on the first support block 110 and the second support block 112, until the bending area A2 of the pole sheet material strip A is pressed into the bending slit 114, so that the part of the pole sheet material strip A that enters the bending slit 114 is the folded portion A3; then, the first glue sticking mechanism 20 sticks the first tape C1 to the side surface of the pole sheet material strip A away from the folded portion A3, so that the first tape C1 covers the group of pole ear areas A1 and the bending area A2, from The first adhesive tape C1 shapes the bending area A2 of the pole piece material strip A to prevent the pole piece material strip A from being flattened after being bent; then, the pressure roller 12 is controlled to move along the second direction X2 until the pressure roller 12 is pulled out of the wrinkled portion A3; then, the pole piece material strip A continues to be conveyed downstream until the group of pole lug areas A1 and bending areas A2 reach the second adhesive tape mechanism 30; then, the second adhesive tape mechanism 30 sticks the second adhesive tape C2 to the side of the pole piece material strip A away from the first adhesive tape C1, so that the second adhesive tape C2 covers the group of pole lug areas A1 and bending areas A2, and then under the action of the second adhesive tape C2, the wrinkled portion A3 is stacked between the pole piece material strip A and the second adhesive tape C2.

[0049] Preferably, the first direction X1 is perpendicular to the second direction X2. It can be understood that the first direction X1 is a direction perpendicular to the pole piece strip A supported on the first support block 110 and the second support block 112, and the second direction X2 is the width direction of the pole piece strip A supported on the first support block 110 and the second support block 112. The conveying direction of the pole piece strip A is the third direction X3, and the first direction X1, the second direction X2 and the third direction X3 are perpendicular to each other. It should be noted that the verticality in this article should be understood as allowing a certain error, that is, the first direction X1, the second direction X2 and the third direction X3 are roughly perpendicular to each other.

[0050] Specifically in the embodiment, the bending drive assembly includes a support seat 13, a mounting block 14, a first driving member 15 and a second driving member 16. The first support block 110 and the second support block 112 are fixedly connected to the support seat 13. The mounting block 14 is movably connected to the support seat 13, and the first driving member 15 is installed on the support seat 13. The driving end of the first driving member 15 is connected to the mounting block 14 so that the first driving member 15 can drive the mounting block 14 to move relative to the support seat 13 along the second direction X2. The second driving member 16 is installed on the mounting block 14, and the pressure roller 12 is connected to the driving end of the second driving member 16 so that the second driving member 16 can drive the pressure roller 12 to move along the first direction X1. In this way, when the bending area A2 of the pole piece strip A needs to be pressed into the bending slit 114, the second driving member 16 drives the pressing roller 12 to gradually approach the bending slit 114 along the first direction X1 until the bending area A2 of the pole piece strip A is driven to enter the bending slit 114 to form the folded portion A3. Then, the first driving member 15 drives the mounting block 14 to move relative to the support seat 13 along the second direction X2 until the pressing roller 12 is pulled out of the folded portion A3 located in the bending slit 114, so that the pressing roller 12 is separated from the pole piece strip A. Optionally, both the first driving member 15 and the second driving member 16 can be cylinders.

[0051] Optionally, the mounting block 14 can be installed on the support seat 13 via guide components such as guide rails or guide rods, so that the movement of the mounting block 14 relative to the support seat 13 is guided by the guide components such as guide rails or guide rods, so that the movement of the pressure roller 12 driven by the mounting block 14 is more precise.

[0052] It should be noted that, in other embodiments, the first driving member 15 may drive the mounting block 14 to move along the first direction X1, and the second driving member 16 may drive the pressure roller 12 to move along the second direction X2. As long as the pressure roller 12 can be controlled to move along the first direction X1 and the second direction X2, no limitation is made here.

[0053] In an embodiment of the present application, the first glue sticking mechanism 20 includes a first glue sticking driving component 21 and a first glue suction plate 22 connected to the driving end of the first glue sticking driving component 21. The first glue suction plate 22 and the support platform 11 are arranged relative to each other in the first direction X1, so that a first glue sticking channel for the pole piece material strip A to pass through is formed between the first glue suction plate 22 and the support platform 11. The first glue suction plate 22 is used to absorb the first adhesive tape C1 on the side facing the support platform 11. The first glue sticking driving component 21 is used to drive the first glue suction plate 22 to approach or move away from the support platform 11 along the first direction X1, so as to stick the first adhesive tape C1 to the pole piece material strip A passing between the first glue suction plate 22 and the support platform 11. In this way, when a group of adjacent pole tab areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece strip A arrive on the support platform 11: first, control the pressure roller 12 to gradually approach the support platform 11 along the first direction X1, until the pressure roller 12 presses the bending area A2 of the pole piece strip A into the bending slit 114 to form a folded portion A3. Then, the first glue-applying driving component 21 drives the first glue-absorbing plate 22 to gradually approach the support platform 11 along the first direction X1, until the first adhesive tape C1 is pasted to the side of the pole piece strip A away from the support platform 11, and the first adhesive tape C1 covers the group of pole tab areas A1 and bending areas A2. Then, the first glue-applying driving component 21 drives the first adhesive-absorbing plate 22 to move away from the support platform 11 along the first direction X1, and controls the pressure roller 12 to move along the second direction X2, until the pressure roller 12 is pulled away from the folded portion A3. Then, the pole piece strip A continues to be transported downstream until the set of pole tab regions A1 and the bending region A2 on the pole piece strip A reach the second gluing mechanism 30. Then, the second gluing mechanism 30 sticks the second tape C2 to the side of the pole piece strip A away from the first tape C1, and the second tape C2 covers the set of pole tab regions A1 and the bending region A2.

[0054] Optionally, the first adhesive absorption plate 22 may be a vacuum absorption plate, that is, a negative pressure is used to absorb the first adhesive tape C1.

[0055] Furthermore, the first glue sticking driving assembly 21 can also drive the first glue absorbing plate 22 to adjust its position along the second direction X2 and the third direction X3, thereby ensuring that the first glue absorbing plate 22 can accurately stick the first adhesive tape C1 to a group of adjacent pole ear areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole sheet material strip A.

[0056] It should be noted that the first adhesive sticking driving component 21 can adopt a three-way driving module, as long as it can drive the first adhesive absorbing plate 22 to move along the first direction X1, the second direction X2 and the third direction X3, and realize the actions of position adjustment and sticking the first adhesive tape C1, and is not limited here.

[0057] In the embodiment of the present application, the gluing device further includes a smoothing mechanism 40 arranged downstream of the bending mechanism 10. The smoothing mechanism 40 is used to smooth the folded portion A3 passing through so that the folded portion A3 is inclined toward the surface of the pole piece strip A. The second gluing mechanism 30 is arranged downstream of the smoothing mechanism 40 so that when the second gluing mechanism 30 adheres the second adhesive tape C2 to the pole piece strip A, the folded portion A3 can be flatly attached between the second adhesive tape C2 and the pole piece strip A.

[0058] Specifically in the embodiment, the smoothing mechanism 40 includes a fixed seat 41 and a smoothing roller 42. The fixed seat 41 is fixedly connected to the above-mentioned support seat 13. The smoothing roller 42 is rotatably connected to the fixed seat 41 and is used to roll along the side surface of the passing pole sheet material strip A having the wrinkled portion A3, thereby smoothing the wrinkled portion A3.

[0059] In this way, after a group of adjacent pole ear areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece material strip A are bent and affixed with the first adhesive tape C1 at the bending mechanism 10, the pole piece material strip A passing through the smoothing roller 42 drives the smoothing roller 42 to roll, so that the smoothing roller 42 rolls along the side surface of the pole piece material strip A having the wrinkled portion A3. When the wrinkled portion A3 passes through the smoothing roller 42, the wrinkled portion A3 is attached to the surface of the pole piece material strip A under the extrusion of the smoothing roller 42. After the wrinkled portion A3 reaches the downstream of the smoothing roller 42 and separates from the smoothing roller 42, the wrinkled portion A3 will rebound, but will still maintain an inclined state inclined toward the surface of the pole piece material strip A.

[0060] When the set of pole tab regions A1 and the bending region A2 on the pole piece strip A reach the second gluing mechanism 30, the second gluing mechanism 30 sticks the second tape C2 to the side surface of the pole piece strip A with the wrinkled portion A3, and the second tape C2 covers the set of pole tab regions A1 and the bending region A2. Since the wrinkled portion A3 is in an inclined state after being smoothed, the wrinkled portion A3 is flatly attached between the pole piece strip A and the second tape C2 under the squeezing action of the second tape C2 when the second tape C2 is pasted.

[0061] It should be noted that the smoothing roller 42 is used to smooth the wrinkled portion A3 on the pole piece strip A, so that rolling friction is generated between the smoothing roller 42 and the pole piece strip A, thereby greatly reducing the risk of scratching the pole piece strip A.

[0062] In the embodiment of the present application, the second glue sticking mechanism 30 includes a second glue sticking driving assembly 31, a second glue suction plate 32 and a glue sticking plate 33 (see Figure 4). The second glue suction plate 32 is connected to the driving end of the second glue sticking driving component 31, and the glue sticking plate 33 is fixedly connected to the support seat 13. The second glue suction plate 32 and the glue sticking plate 33 are arranged relative to each other along the first direction X1, so that a second glue sticking channel for the pole piece material strip A to pass through is formed between the second glue suction plate 32 and the glue sticking plate 33. The side of the second glue suction plate 32 facing the glue sticking plate 33 is used to absorb the second adhesive tape C2. The second glue sticking driving component 31 is used to drive the second glue suction plate 32 to approach or move away from the glue sticking plate 33 along the first direction X1, so as to achieve the second adhesive tape C2 on the second glue suction plate 32 being pasted to a group of adjacent pole ear areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece material strip A passing through the second glue sticking channel, and the second adhesive tape C2 is located on the side of the pole piece material strip A having the folded portion A3.

[0063] Optionally, the second adhesive absorption plate 32 may be a vacuum absorption plate, that is, a negative pressure is used to absorb the second adhesive tape C2.

[0064] Furthermore, the second glue sticking driving assembly 31 can also drive the second glue suction plate 32 to adjust its position along the second direction X2 and the third direction X3, thereby ensuring that the second glue suction plate 32 can accurately stick the second adhesive tape C2 to a group of adjacent pole ear areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole sheet material strip A.

[0065] It should be noted that the second adhesive sticking driving component 31 can adopt a three-way driving module, as long as it can drive the second adhesive suction plate 32 to move along the first direction X1, the second direction X2 and the third direction X3, and realize the actions of position adjustment and sticking the second adhesive tape C2, and is not limited here.

[0066] Based on the above winding equipment, the utility model also provides a battery cell. The battery cell is formed by winding a multi-layer material strip containing a pole piece strip A. The pole piece strip A has a plurality of pole lug areas A1 arranged at intervals along its length direction, and the pole piece strip A also has a plurality of bending areas A2 adjacent to the plurality of pole lug areas A1 in a one-to-one correspondence. Under the action of the above-mentioned pressing roller 12, each bending area A2 is bent toward the same side of the pole piece strip A to form a folded portion A3.

[0067] The battery cell also includes a plurality of first adhesive tapes C1 and a plurality of second adhesive tapes C2. Under the action of the first adhesive tape 20, each first adhesive tape C1 is located on the side of the pole piece strip A away from the folded portion A3, and each first adhesive tape C1 is adhered to a group of adjacent pole lug areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece strip A. Under the action of the second adhesive tape 30, each second adhesive tape C2 is located on the side of the pole piece strip A having the folded portion A3, and each second adhesive tape C2 is adhered to a group of adjacent pole lug areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece strip A, and each folded portion A3 is attached between the pole piece strip A and the corresponding second adhesive tape C2. In this way, each pole ear area A1 on the pole piece material strip A is adjacent to a bending area A2, and is bent at the bending area A2 to form a folded portion A3. A first tape C1 and a second tape C2 are respectively pasted on both sides of a group of adjacent pole ear areas A1 and bending areas A2 on the pole piece material strip A. On the one hand, the first tape C1 and the second tape C2 are used to protect the pole ear B in the pole ear area A1; on the other hand, due to the presence of the folded portion A3 between the second tape C2 and the pole piece material strip A, the folded portion A3 can adaptively open and play a buffering role when the pole piece material strip A is pulled, that is, a certain amount of stretching is reserved, which greatly reduces the risk of the pole piece material strip A being torn.
