[0002] With the country's support and promotion of environmentally friendly new energy development, actively developing new energy vehicles is the future development direction of the automotive industry, and lithium battery technology is one of the key technologies for the development of electric vehicles. In the production process of square lithium battery PACK, the sealing process control of the box is a key process. The leakage rate of the battery pack is a key process characteristic that needs to be controlled. If the sealing effect between the upper cover and the lower box is poor, water vapor will enter the box, affecting the function of the PACK and even the safety of the battery.
[0003] Currently, a sealant bonding process is used to seal the upper cover and the lower box. If leakage occurs, it is impossible to repair the glue and rework. At the same time, it takes time for the glue to cure, which prolongs the process cycle. Utility Model Content
[0004] The utility model aims to provide a lithium-ion battery plastic laser welding auxiliary device, which realizes uniform welding of the upper cover and the lower box body by pressing down the upper cover according to the shape, and solves the problem of laser welding failure caused by the workpiece itself blocking the laser by means of mirror reflection welding.
[0005] The above technical purpose of the utility model is achieved through the following technical scheme: a lithium-ion battery plastic laser welding auxiliary device, including an upper cover profiling and pressing down module, a mirror base and a laser reflector module arranged on the mirror base, the laser reflector module includes a reflective mirror surface and a mirror angle adjustment device, the reflective mirror surface is arranged on the mirror base, the reflective mirror surfaces are connected end to end to form a welding cavity, the upper cover profiling and pressing down module is located in the welding cavity, and the mirror angle adjustment device adjusts the inclination angle of the reflective mirror surface.
[0006] The utility model is further configured as follows: the upper cover profiling and pressing down module comprises an upper cover profiling structure, a light-shielding structure and a pressing down column, and the light-shielding structure is connected to the upper cover profiling structure via the pressing down column.
[0007] By adopting the above technical solution, the pressure is transmitted to the upper cover profiling structure through the downward pressure of the cylinder to press down the entire surface. The upper cover profiling structure fully contacts the upper surface of the upper cover by avoiding the air vent, increasing the communication port downward pressure block, and improving the consistency of welding penetration at the communication port.
[0008] The utility model is further configured as follows: the mirror angle adjustment device includes a fixed base, a rotating rod, a fixing bolt, and an arc-shaped hole; the fixed base is arranged on the mirror base and is located at both ends of the reflecting mirror; the rotating rod is fixedly arranged at both ends of the reflecting mirror; the rotating rod is rotatably connected to the fixed base; an arc-shaped hole is opened above the fixed base; the fixing bolt passes through the arc-shaped hole and is connected to the reflecting mirror.
[0009] By adopting the above technical solution, the angle of the reflective mirror can be adjusted according to the degree of obstruction of the workpiece, and the angle can be fixed by the mirror base. When changing the model, the entire mirror can be replaced directly without further adjustment.
[0010] The utility model is further configured as follows: an upper cover is connected below the upper cover profiling structure.
[0011] The utility model is further configured as follows: the upper cover is made of light-transmitting material.
[0012] The utility model is further configured as follows: a cooling device is also arranged on the mirror base, comprising a cooling bracket and a cooling port arranged on the cooling bracket.
[0013] By adopting the above technical solution, the laser is irradiated onto the weld of the upper cover through reflection by the reflective mirror. Since the upper cover is made of light-transmitting material and the lower box is made of opaque material, the laser passes through the upper cover and gathers on the welding surface of the lower box for welding. The upper cover contour pressing module continuously presses down the upper cover, thereby realizing the welding of the upper cover and the lower box, until the set melting depth is reached and the welding is completed.
[0014] The beneficial effects of the utility model are as follows: the utility model is mainly used for the plastic laser welding auxiliary device of square lithium-ion battery PACK. The upper cover is positioned and fixed by using an upper cover pressing device, thereby reducing the manual positioning process, avoiding the upper cover from moving up and down during welding, and reducing the situation where the height of the PACK exceeds the standard; by using a mirror reflection module, the number of laser equipment is reduced, the difficulty of sealing is reduced, and the welding efficiency is improved; the upper cover and the lower box body are welded and sealed by laser welding, the melting depth is monitored, the airtightness of the sealing is ensured, and the number of rework is reduced.
