[0030] Figure 1is a schematic structural diagram of a battery cell detection device 100 according to a specific embodiment of the utility model; Figure 2 It is a partial schematic structural diagram of a cell inspection device according to a specific embodiment of the utility model.

[0031] In this embodiment, the detection principle of the photoluminescence detection component 310 for the battery cell is to detect the defects of the battery cell by the photoluminescence method. Specifically, the photoluminescence method is that the photoluminescence image is obtained by limiting the imaging field of view to a thin line across the width of the battery cell, and irradiating the laser to the thin line through a laser, and the line scan camera collects the photoluminescence (PL) image. A voltage difference will be formed between the irradiated area and the unirradiated area of the solar cell, causing a lateral current to flow and emit fluorescence. Since the conductivity and energy level of the defective area and the normal area are different, the degree of fluorescence emitted by the defective area is darker. Therefore, the defective battery cell can be identified based on the fluorescence intensity displayed by the PL image. The photoluminescence detection component 310 can detect defects inside the battery cell.
[0032] The automatic optical inspection component 320 of this embodiment detects defects of the battery cell by an automatic optical inspection method. The specific automatic optical inspection method is based on optical principles to detect common defects encountered in battery cell production, obtains the surface state of the battery cell by optical means, and detects surface damage and other defects by image processing. This method has the advantages of low environmental requirements, clear imaging, and high detection efficiency. The automatic optical inspection component 320 of this embodiment can detect defects on the surface of the battery cell.
[0033] Specifically, the appendix of this embodiment Figure 1 The cell inspection device 100 is provided with two groups of inspection devices 300, and each group of inspection devices 300 can detect defects of the cell individually or together. Of course, in other embodiments, the cell inspection device 100 can also include more groups of inspection devices 300. Multiple groups of inspection devices 300 can all detect defects of the cell individually or together.
[0034] Specifically, the cell inspection device 100 of this embodiment integrates a photoluminescence inspection component 310 and an automatic optical inspection component 320, and can simultaneously inspect defects such as hidden cracks, breakages, scratches, and offsets of the cell, thus solving the problem of single function of the device in the prior art.
