Description

Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of lithium battery production, in particular to a sealing nail auxiliary welding device for a battery liquid injection hole. Background Art

[0002] At present, with the rapid development of the new energy industry, society's requirements for the energy density, safety performance, and fast charging performance of lithium-ion batteries have been further improved. As a highly recognized solution, large cylindrical batteries have ushered in a broad market space. After the cylindrical battery is filled with liquid, the filling port needs to be sealed. The existing sealing nails are fixed in two ways: welding and riveting. In order to facilitate circumferential welding, it is necessary to first fix the sealing nails at the filling hole with the help of spot welding. However, the sealing nails are prone to warping during spot welding, which not only affects the sealing effect and poses a risk of leakage, but also easily causes bubbles and leakage in the welding pool due to the high-temperature evaporation of the electrolyte during subsequent circumferential welding. Riveted sealing nails are prone to cracks and pose a risk of leakage. At the same time, the production efficiency of the pull riveting form is low and cannot effectively increase the product production speed. Utility Model Content
