Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of battery liquid injection equipment, in particular to an electrolyte liquid injection needle. Background Art
[0002] In the existing lithium battery injection process, the injection needle generally adopts a cylindrical needle, that is, the diameter of the infusion channel inside the injection needle is consistent at all places. When in use, the tail of the needle is connected to the hose for inputting electrolyte, and the head of the needle is connected to the battery cell. The electrolyte flows from the tail of the needle to the infusion channel inside the needle, and finally outputs from the head of the needle to the battery. The structure of this type of needle is simple and easy to process. However, since the diameter of the infusion channel of the cylindrical needle is consistent at all places, the infusion speed is fast, and the single-port impact pressure is too large, the electrolyte is easy to splash outside the battery after colliding with the shell wall of the electrolyte cup or the battery cell, resulting in inaccurate injection volume, and will corrode the battery shell, reduce the yield, and the electrolyte crystallization caused by dripping will also affect the yield, thereby affecting the equipment efficiency. The crystallization accumulated over a long period of time will also affect the normal operation of the hardware of the injection equipment. Utility Model Content
[0003] In order to overcome the above shortcomings, the purpose of the present invention is to provide an electrolyte injection needle to solve the problems caused by the above background technology.
[0004] In order to achieve the above purpose, the technical solution adopted by the utility model is an electrolyte injection needle, comprising:
[0005] The needle body extends axially and includes a liquid inlet and a main liquid injection port. The liquid inlet is arranged at the top of the needle body and is used to connect with an external electrolyte infusion pipeline. The main liquid injection port is arranged at the bottom of the needle body and is used to discharge the electrolyte.
[0006] The needle body also includes an injection channel and multiple groups of auxiliary injection channels. The injection channel extends along the axial direction, and the two ends are respectively connected to the liquid inlet and the main injection port. The multiple groups of auxiliary injection channels are arranged at one end of the needle body close to the main injection port, and are arranged at intervals along the circumferential direction, and the circumferential direction surrounds the axial direction. Each group of auxiliary injection channels is connected to the injection channel.
[0007] The electrolyte injection needle provided by the utility model is provided with a plurality of auxiliary injection channels on the basis of the original liquid inlet-injection port, which is a single injection channel. The plurality of auxiliary injection channels are arranged close to the main injection port and enter the electrolyte cup together with the main injection port, so that the electrolyte is dispersedly discharged from the plurality of channels, thereby effectively solving the splashing problem caused by excessive impact pressure of the single port.
[0008] In some embodiments, the needle body is a truncated cone structure at the main injection port. The truncated cone structure and the injection channels in its inner part are arranged to decrease in size in a direction close to the main injection port. The multiple groups of auxiliary injection channels are located above the truncated cone structure.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the diameter of the main liquid injection port is successively reduced along the axial direction, and the small-diameter liquid injection port can effectively reduce the occurrence of dripping.
[0010] In some embodiments, each group of the auxiliary liquid injection channels includes a plurality of auxiliary liquid injection ports. The plurality of auxiliary liquid injection ports are spaced apart along the axial direction, and one end of each of the auxiliary liquid injection ports is in communication with the liquid injection channel.
[0011] By adopting the above technical solution, a plurality of auxiliary liquid injection ports form a plurality of branches of the liquid injection channel, so that the electrolyte can be discharged in a dispersed manner when the electrolyte is injected.
[0012] In some embodiments, the plurality of auxiliary liquid injection ports are all arranged to be inclined away from the liquid injection channel. The other end of each auxiliary liquid injection port is arranged close to the main liquid injection port. The angle between the inclined direction of each auxiliary liquid injection port and the axial direction is 45°.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the auxiliary liquid injection port is tilted to prevent the electrolyte from colliding with the shell wall or the battery cell, thereby preventing liquid splashing.
[0014] In some embodiments, the center of the injection port, the center of the liquid inlet, and the central axis of the injection channel are all on the same straight line.
[0015] By adopting the above technical solution, the injection port, the liquid inlet and the injection channel are coaxially arranged to ensure the accuracy of the main injection port.
[0016] In some embodiments, the needle body is made of corrosion-resistant stainless steel.
[0017] By adopting the above technical solution, the anti-corrosion stainless steel generally has the property of being rust-proof and resistant to corrosion by chemical corrosive media (acid, alkali, salt and other chemical corrosion), and is therefore suitable for use in battery filling equipment.

[0025] The electrolyte injection needle provided in the present application is provided with a plurality of groups of auxiliary injection channels 5 on the basis of the original liquid inlet 2 to injection port, which is a single injection channel 4. The plurality of groups of auxiliary injection channels 5 are arranged near the main injection port 3, and enter the electrolyte cup together with the main injection port 3, so as to disperse and discharge the electrolyte from a plurality of channels, thereby effectively solving the splashing problem caused by excessive impact pressure of a single port.

In addition, the number of the auxiliary injection ports 50 in this embodiment is three, but the number of the auxiliary injection ports 50 is not limited, and any auxiliary injection ports 50 that can meet the auxiliary discharge of the electrolyte can be applied to this solution.

The other end of each auxiliary liquid injection port 50 is arranged close to the main liquid injection port 3.
[0032] The included angle between the inclined direction of each auxiliary liquid injection port 50 and the axial direction is 45°.
[0033] For example, Figure 2 As shown in ∠α, each auxiliary liquid injection port 50 is tilted downward, and the angle between the tilting direction and the axial direction is 45, so as to prevent the electrolyte from colliding with the shell wall or the battery cell and causing liquid splashing.
