Description

Technical Field

[0002] Lithium batteries have the advantages of light weight, high energy storage density, and long service life. Therefore, lithium batteries are increasingly widely used in the new energy vehicle industry. For lithium batteries, the most important thing is the battery cell. During the production process of lithium batteries, if there is water in the battery cell, it will have a fatal adverse effect on the battery life, internal resistance, capacity and discharge time, and may cause the lithium battery to heat up or even explode. Therefore, in the production process of lithium batteries, drying of the battery cell is a very important process.

[0003] When the existing battery cells are loaded on the tray, most of them are placed flat on the tray, which easily leads to uneven heating on the front and back sides of the battery cells. Only when the battery cells are placed vertically can the heating be more uniform. Since the battery cells are arranged on the tray in the traditional way by manual labor, the work efficiency is low and the labor cost is high.

[0004] Existing references, such as the battery cell baking line with application number CN202111445489.X, have a mechanical structure for turning the battery cells, and a loader is used to flip the battery cells into a tray, but there is a lack of guiding and positioning battery cell guide tooling. Therefore, the aluminum battery cells and trays are prone to collision, resulting in damage to the appearance, and the tray and the robot have relative movement, which will bring about uncertainty problems in debugging.
