[0002] In the manufacturing process of energy storage battery cells, strict control of moisture is required because moisture will react with the components in the electrolyte to generate HF, and HF will damage the SEI film formed during formation, thereby affecting the performance of the battery cells. At the same time, the consumption of the electrolyte will also affect the cycle performance of the battery cells. Currently, in addition to monitoring the environmental moisture conditions during the manufacturing process, the energy storage battery cells mainly rely on the baking process to remove the moisture of the non-injected battery cells (under high temperature and vacuum conditions, the moisture inside the battery cells can be vaporized and overflowed).
[0003] Currently, most of the energy storage battery cell baking is designed to heat inside the chamber, remove the moisture inside the battery cells, and at the same time, the nitrogen is circulated through breathing to take away the baked-out moisture. However, when breathing and circulating, the temperature difference between the nitrogen before entering and the temperature inside the baking chamber is too large, and it takes time to heat up.
[0004] Therefore, a ventilation structure for an energy storage battery cell baking equipment is provided to solve the technical problem that the temperature of the nitrogen before entering the baking chamber is lower than the temperature inside the baking chamber during breathing and circulating.

[0009] Further, the bottom of the baking equipment is connected to the inlet of the gas heater through a recovery pipe; and
[0010] An air-air heat exchanger is arranged on the recovery pipe to exchange heat for the gas discharged from the baking equipment.
[0011] Further, an air outlet pipe is arranged on the lower end surface of the baking equipment; and
[0012] The exhaust pipe penetrates through the bottom of the baking equipment.
[0013] Furthermore, one end of the exhaust pipe located inside the baking equipment is connected with a collecting pipe; wherein
[0014] A plurality of suction pipes are uniformly arranged on the collecting pipe.
[0015] Furthermore, one end of the exhaust pipe located outside the baking equipment is connected with the intake end of the gas-gas heat exchanger; and
