Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The utility model relates to a lithium battery pole piece transfer device, belonging to the technical field of lithium metal battery production. Background Art
[0002] Lithium metal is usually produced using a lamination process, and during the lamination process, negative electrode lithium sheets are sucked in by an air pipe using negative pressure. To achieve negative pressure, a vacuum suction cup will inevitably act directly on the lithium sheet to achieve the negative pressure effect. However, since the lithium sheet is very thin and soft, the vacuum suction cup will cause some protrusions to appear on the surface of the lithium sheet when the negative pressure is applied, resulting in an uneven surface of the lithium sheet. As a result, during the charge and discharge process of the lithium metal battery, a tip effect will occur at the protruding position, causing rapid growth of lithium dendrites, affecting the battery's cycle performance, and even causing lithium dendrites to pierce the diaphragm, directly causing the battery to short circuit.

[0039] The technical solution, its implementation process and principle will be further explained below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.
[0040] See also Figure 1-Figure 4 A lithium battery pole piece transfer device includes a magnetic suction member 100 and a fixing member 200, wherein the magnetic suction member 100 is connected to the fixing member 200, and the magnetic suction member 100 is at least used to absorb the lithium battery pole piece by magnetic force, and the fixing member 200 is provided with a first movable part 310 and a second movable part 320, and a driving unit is connected to the first movable part 310 and drives the fixing member 200 to move along a first direction, and the driving unit is connected to the second movable part 320 and drives the fixing member 200 to move along a second direction, and the first direction and the second direction are arranged to be cross-arranged.
[0041] In this embodiment, the device can be used in the process of stacking lithium batteries to grab the negative electrode of the battery during the stacking of the positive and negative electrodes of the lithium battery. Lithium sheets are mostly used in the negative electrode of the lithium battery. Since impurities such as nickel, cobalt, and iron exist in the lithium sheet, the lithium sheet can be adsorbed by magnetic objects. Therefore, the device includes a magnetic component 100 and a fixed component 200. The magnetic component 100 has controllable magnetism. When the magnetic component 100 is magnetized, it can absorb the lithium sheet. When the magnetic component 100 is not magnetized, the magnetic component 100 is separated from the lithium sheet. The magnetic component 100 is placed horizontally and connected to the lower end of the fixed component 200 in a vertical direction. The fixed component 200 is provided with a first movable part 310 and a second movable part 320. The driving unit is matched and connected with the first movable part 310 and the second movable part 320, so that the driving unit drives the fixed component 200 to move in the first direction and in the second direction respectively, thereby driving the magnetic component 100 to move in the first direction and in the second direction respectively.
[0042] When stacking, the positive and negative electrodes of the lithium battery are stacked alternately in the vertical direction. Therefore, in this embodiment, the first direction is the horizontal direction, and the second direction is the vertical direction. The driving unit is connected with the first movable part 310 to drive the magnetic suction member 100 to move in the horizontal direction. Specifically, the magnetic suction member 100 is first magnetized so that the magnetic suction member 100 absorbs the lithium electrodes at the electrode storage location. The fixing member 200 drives the magnetic suction member 100 to move in the horizontal direction to the stacking location. During the movement, the lithium electrodes are kept in a horizontal state. When the lithium electrodes reach the horizontal state, the fixing member 200 drives the magnetic suction member 100 to move to the stacking location. When the stacking position is designated, the driving mechanism cooperates with the second movable part 320 and drives the fixing part 200 to move in the vertical direction, so that the magnetic suction part 100 drives the lithium sheet to move in the vertical direction until the lithium sheet is moved to the stacking position, and then controls the magnetic suction part 100 to break the magnetism, so that the magnetic suction part 100 is separated from the lithium sheet, and then drives the magnetic suction part 100 to move in the reverse direction in the vertical direction, and then drives the magnetic suction part 100 to move back to the pole piece storage position in the horizontal direction, so as to stack the next lithium sheet, and by repeating this step, the stacking process of the lithium battery is completed.
[0043] In the above structure, a magnetic suction component 100 is provided and the lithium battery pole piece is sucked by utilizing the on and off of magnetism, thereby replacing the method of grabbing the pole piece by drawing negative pressure in the traditional process. This effectively avoids the problem that the pole piece is easily grasped by drawing negative pressure, which may cause protrusions on the pole piece surface, thereby causing a tip effect at the protruding position during the charging and discharging process of the lithium metal battery, affecting the cycle performance of the battery and even causing a short circuit in the battery. This further ensures the flatness of the pole piece surface when grabbing the pole piece, thereby ensuring the cycle performance of the battery. In addition, by utilizing magnetic force to absorb the pole piece, the structure is greatly simplified, effectively avoiding the complicated structure caused by the compressor and various vacuum pipes used in the negative pressure method.
[0044] In the specific structure of the magnetic attraction member 100, the magnetic attraction member 100 includes a magnetic plate 110 and a conductive coil 120. The magnetic plate 110 includes a first end face 111 and a second end face 112 that are arranged back to back. The conductive coil 120 is connected to the first end face 111 to conduct magnetism to the magnetic plate 110, so that the second end face 112 is at least used to attract the lithium battery pole piece. The magnetic plate is a metal plate-shaped structure. An insulating layer 130 is provided on the outer surface of the magnetic plate 110.
[0045] In this embodiment, the magnetic conductive plate 110 can be a rectangular plate-like structure to adapt to the shape of a rectangular pole piece, and the outer dimensions of the second end face 112 of the magnetic conductive plate 110 are not less than the outer dimensions of the pole piece, so that the second end face 112 completely covers the pole piece, and the pole piece can be placed horizontally when being absorbed, and the two end faces of the magnetic conductive plate 110 in the vertical direction respectively form a first end face 111 and a second end face 112, wherein the upper end face of the magnetic conductive plate 110 is the first end face 111, and the lower end face of the magnetic conductive plate 110 is the second end face 112, and the conductive coil 120 is placed vertically with its axial direction in the vertical direction, and one end of the bottom of the conductive coil 120 is connected to the upper end face of the magnetic conductive plate 110, that is, the first end face 111, and the conductive coil 120 is connected at the center of the magnetic conductive plate 110, so that the magnetic force is transmitted more evenly, thereby ensuring the stability of absorbing the lithium sheet. When the conductive coil 120 is powered on, the conductive coil 120 generates electromagnetic induction, so that the magnetic plate 110 is magnetically conductive, and the magnetic plate 110 can absorb the lithium sheet through the magnetism of the second end face 112. When the conductive coil 120 is powered off, the electromagnetic induction of the conductive coil 120 disappears, and the magnetic plate 110 is demagnetized, so that the magnetic plate 110 is separated from the lithium sheet. In the selection of the magnetic plate 110, the magnetic plate 110 can be selected from a metal material structure to better achieve the magnetic conductive effect. In addition, the surface of the magnetic plate 110 is also covered with an insulating layer 130, which can effectively prevent the magnetic plate 110 from having static electricity, thereby affecting the absorption effect of the lithium sheet. Among them, the insulating layer 130 can be formed by coating insulating paint on the surface of the magnetic plate 110, which is simple and convenient to manufacture.
[0046] In addition, in the specific work of controlling the on and off of the conductive coil 120, the magnetic attraction member 100 further includes an electromagnetic switch member 140, which is disposed on the fixing member 200 and connected to the conductive coil 120 to control the energization of the conductive coil 120. The electromagnetic switch member 140 is provided with a photoelectric switch valve, which is at least used to collect and process optical signals to control the energization of the conductive coil 120.
[0047] In this embodiment, the electromagnetic switch is connected to the conductive coil 120 to control the on and off of the conductive coil 120, wherein the electromagnetic switch includes a photoelectric switch valve, and the electromagnetic switch is connected to the fixing member 200. When the magnetic conductive plate 110 needs to be magnetized, a set power-on beam signal is emitted to the photoelectric switch valve, and the beam signal can be infrared light or visible light. After receiving the beam, the photoelectric switch valve performs judgment processing. After judging that it is a power-on signal, the switch valve is opened to energize the conductive coil 120. When the magnetic conductive plate 110 needs to be demagnetized, a power-off beam signal is emitted to the photoelectric switch valve. After receiving the beam, the photoelectric switch valve judges that it is a power-off signal, and closes the switch valve to deenergize the conductive coil 120. Using the photoelectric switch valve to control the on and off of the conductive coil 120 is simple and convenient to operate, has high control accuracy, and a high degree of automation. Among them, the electromagnetic switch can be bonded to the fixing member 200 by glue, or connected to the fixing member 200 by screws, which is convenient for installation, disassembly and maintenance.
[0048] In addition, the lithium battery pole piece transfer device also includes a non-magnetic guide cover 510, which is provided with a guide opening 520. The opening size of the guide opening 520 is consistent with the outer size of the lithium battery pole piece. The non-magnetic guide cover 510 is connected to the magnetic suction component 100, and the non-magnetic guide cover 510 covers the second end face 112, and a portion of the second end face 112 is exposed in the guide opening 520.
[0049] In this embodiment, if Figure 4As shown, a non-magnetic guide cover 510 is also provided, and the non-magnetic guide cover 510 can be a rectangular structure. A through guide opening 520 is provided on one end face of the non-magnetic guide cover 510 along the thickness direction, wherein the guide opening is rectangular, and its outer dimensions are consistent with the outer dimensions of the lithium battery pole piece to be absorbed. When in use, the non-magnetic guide cover 510 is first connected to the magnetic suction component 100, so that one end face of the non-magnetic guide cover 510 is in contact with the second end face 112, and only the second end face 112 located at the guide opening 520 is exposed to the outside. Since the non-magnetic guide cover 510 is made of non-magnetic material, when the magnetic plate is energized and magnetized, the non-magnetic guide cover 510 can shield the magnetism of the second end face 112 except the guide opening 520, so that only the second end face 112 at the guide opening 520 can absorb the pole piece. When it is necessary to transfer the pole piece, the non-magnetic guide cover 510 is moved to the placement area of the pole piece, and the guide opening 520 is aligned with the pole piece. Thereafter, the magnetic plate 110 is energized and magnetized, and the second end face 112 located at the guide opening 520 attracts the corresponding pole piece. When it is necessary to place the pole piece, the fixing part 200 is moved to the specified position through the driving unit, and the non-magnetic guide cover 510 is moved close to the placement area, so that the guide opening 520 corresponds to the pole piece placement position, and the magnetic plate 110 is demagnetized, so that the pole piece falls from the guide opening 520. The guide opening 520 can guide and limit the absorption and placement of the pole piece, effectively avoiding the displacement of the pole piece during the absorption or placement process, and can effectively ensure the accuracy of the falling position of the pole piece.
[0050] In addition, the non-magnetic guide cover 510 and the magnetic suction component 100 can be quickly disassembled and connected by snaps, and the non-magnetic guide cover 510 with corresponding guide opening 520 size can be specified according to the specifications of the sucked pole piece, thereby further improving the applicability of the device.
