Technical Field
[0001] The utility model belongs to the technical field of battery liquid injection, and relates to a lithium-ion battery liquid injection device. Background Technique
[0002] With the vigorous development of new energy, lithium-ion batteries are increasingly widely used in the fields of energy storage and power due to their relatively high specific energy, long cycle life, no memory effect, and good safety performance. Due to the update of development requirements, batteries are developing towards larger volume, higher capacity, and greater specific energy, which requires higher compaction and greater liquid retention capacity inside the battery. For aluminum shell batteries, the liquid injection efficiency of the battery has become a bottleneck process restricting its production, thus posing greater challenges to the equipment iteration and process improvement of liquid injection.
[0003] At present, the liquid injection in the industry is generally in the form of isobaric liquid injection, and the holding pressure is generally between 0.4 and 0.6 MPa. However, due to the limitations of the equipment tolerance and gas transmission pipelines, the working performance of existing liquid injection equipment is at the same level, and there is no good iteration direction. The bottleneck of cell liquid injection is mainly the gas removal rate inside the pores of the electrode sheet. Only after the gas is removed in time can the electrolyte be accommodated.

[0032] The technical solution of the present invention will be further described below with reference to the drawings and through specific embodiments.
[0033] In a specific embodiment, the present utility model provides a lithium-ion battery liquid injection device, which includes an isobaric liquid injection mechanism, a gas storage mechanism, and a controller.

The positive pressure inlet is connected to the intake pipe, the negative pressure inlet is connected to an external air extraction mechanism, and the discharge port is used to communicate with the outside. The present utility model uses the negative pressure inlet to perform a vacuum pumping process before liquid injection, maintaining the negative pressure in the inner cavity of the battery cell at -50 to -95 KPa. During the liquid injection process, intermittent air intake is performed through the positive pressure inlet to improve the absorption effect of the electrolyte, and the discharge port is used to communicate with the outside to discharge the gas in the inner cavity of the battery cell.

[0084] Table 1
[0085]
[0086]
[0087] It can be easily seen from Table 1 that when both the boost time and the stagnation time are short, the time taken for Application Examples 1 to 10 to complete 100% of the filling volume is reduced, and the improvement efficiency is as high as 40%. Application Examples 1 to 10 adopt an intermittent gas intake method, which causes the gas-liquid in the filling cup to oscillate, increasing the probability of removing the internal gas of the battery and promoting the absorption of the electrolyte, thereby effectively reducing the filling time. In contrast, Comparative Application Example 1 adopts a direct boost mode, and the pressure on the electrode sheet pores in the inner cavity of the battery cell is always in the same direction, without an oscillation effect, resulting in a reduction in filling efficiency.
