AI Technical Summary
During the processing of the electrode ears of lithium batteries, due to the hard metal material, the problem of poor bending effect is prone to occur after bending, and the shape after bending is difficult to meet the qualified standards, resulting in a high scrap rate.
An ear bending device for large cylindrical lithium battery winding machine is designed, including a processing frame and ear bending mechanism. The extreme ear bending mechanism consists of a length measurement assembly, a bending auxiliary assembly and a bending assembly. The length measurement assembly uses a laser rangefinder to detect the length of the pole tab. The bending auxiliary assembly heats the metal heat extrusion table through an electric heater to soften the pole tab. The bending assembly achieves slow and uniform bending through hydraulic pushing and external spring set.
Through the precise detection of the laser rangefinder and the heating treatment of the electric heater, the pole tabs maintain appropriate softness during the bending process, improve the quality and consistency of the bending effect, and reduce the waste rate. At the same time, the cooperation between hydraulic push and external spring group avoids hard pulling, protects the pole ear piece, and ensures an efficient and stable processing process.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE EMBODIMENTS
[0023] Next, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present invention, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present invention without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present invention.
[0024] Embodiment 1
[0025] Please refer to Figures 1-4 As shown, the present invention provides a technical solution: a lug bending device for a large cylindrical lithium battery winding machine, including a processing frame 1 and a lug bending mechanism 2. The lug bending mechanism 2 is installed on the upper side of the processing frame 1;
[0026] The lug bending mechanism 2 includes a length measurement component 21, a bending assistance component 22, and a bending component 23. The length measurement component 21 is arranged on the upper side of the processing frame 1. The bending assistance component 22 is installed on the left side of the length measurement component 21, and the bending component 23 is installed on the left side of the bending assistance component 22.
[0027] Further, the length measurement component 21 includes a laser rangefinder 211 and a laser probe 212. The laser rangefinders 211 are installed on the upper side of the processing frame 1, and the laser probes 212 are arranged inside the laser rangefinders 211. When in use, the laser rangefinder 211 will detect the feeding amount of the lug metal sheet through the laser probe 212 to avoid the problem that the length of the lug sheet is too long or too short, resulting in subsequent unusability.
[0028] Further, the bending assistance component 22 includes an electric heater 221, a telescopic pump 222, a telescopic rod 223, a force-receiving table 224, a heat transfer sheet 225, and a metal heating and extrusion table 226. The electric heater 221 is installed on the left side of the laser rangefinder 211. The telescopic pump 222 is installed on the left side of the electric heater 221. The telescopic rods 223 are installed on the upper side of the telescopic pump 222. The force-receiving table 224 is arranged in the middle of the telescopic rods 223. The heat transfer sheet 225 is installed on the lower side of the force-receiving table 224, and the metal heating and extrusion table 226 is installed on the lower side of the heat transfer sheet 225. When in use, the electric heater 221 will transfer heat to the metal heating and extrusion table 226 through the heat transfer sheet 225, and the metal heating and extrusion table 226 will soften the lug sheet through the heat transfer effect between metals, making the processing process easier, without affecting the lugs, and the folding effect will be better.
[0029] Further, the telescopic pump 222 and the telescopic rod 223 are connected by a card slot, and the telescopic pump 222 and the telescopic rod 223 correspond to each other one by one. When in use, the telescopic pump 222 will drive the metal heating and extrusion table 226 downward through the telescopic rod 223, so that the metal heating and extrusion table 226 directly presses on the tab, thereby fixing the tab, and at the same time making the heating effect better and the efficiency higher.
[0030] Further, the bending assembly 23 includes a bending piece 231, an outer elastic shaft 232, an outer spring group 233, a retractable hydraulic pump 234, a limit block 235, a moving groove 236 and a hydraulic push pump 237. A bending piece 231 is arranged on the left side of the metal heating and extrusion table 226. Outer elastic shafts 232 are arranged on the outer sides of the bending piece 231. Outer spring groups 233 are connected to the outer sides of the outer elastic shafts 232 by card slots. Retractable hydraulic pumps 234 are installed on the lower sides of the outer spring groups 233. When in use, the outer spring group 233 will always extend the bending piece 231 outward through the outer elastic shaft 232. In this way, when bending, when the hydraulic push pump 237 pushes the bending piece 231 inward, the outer spring group 233 will slowly bend the bending piece 231 in the vertical direction through the outer elastic shaft 232, so as to achieve the bending effect on the tab. When it is over, the outer spring group 233 will open the bending piece 231 again through the outer elastic shaft 232.
[0031] Further, the retractable hydraulic pump 234 and the outer spring group 233 are welded, and the retractable hydraulic pump 234 and the limit block 235 are connected by a card slot. When in use, the retractable hydraulic pump 234 will provide support for the height change when the bending piece 231 is bent, so as to avoid damage caused by hard pulling.
[0032] Further, limit blocks 235 are arranged on the lower sides of the retractable hydraulic pumps 234. Moving grooves 236 are arranged on the lower sides of the limit blocks 235. Hydraulic push pumps 237 are arranged on the left sides of the limit blocks 235. When in use, the limit blocks 235 will move left and right along the moving grooves 236, and at the same time the hydraulic push pumps 237 will provide power for the movement of the limit blocks 235, so that the bending piece 231 can receive sufficient extrusion force.
[0033] Embodiment 2
[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 4As shown, compared with the first comparative example, as another implementation mode of the present utility model, a feeding component 3 is installed on the right side of the laser rangefinder 211. The feeding component 3 includes a rotating motor 31 and a rubber wheel 32. The rotating motor 31 is arranged on the right side of the laser rangefinder 211, and the rubber wheel 32 is installed inside the rotating motor 31. When in use, the rotating motor 31 drives the rubber wheel 32 to rotate, so that the tab metal sheet can be evenly processed subsequently. The rubber wheel 32 can avoid the problem of insufficient processing length caused by slipping.
[0035] Working principle: Move a tab bending device for a large cylindrical lithium battery winding machine to the working position. When in use, in the first step, first move the processing frame 1 to the position where it is needed. Subsequently, the tab metal sheet is rotated by the rubber wheel 32 of the rotating motor 31 and first passes through the laser probe 212 under the laser rangefinder 211 to measure the length. After the measurement, in the second step, the telescopic pump 222 drives the metal heating and extrusion table 226 under the force receiving table 224 to press the tab through the telescopic rod 223. At the same time, the electric heater 221 heats the metal heating and extrusion table 226 through the heat transfer sheet 225, and the heat will be transferred to the tab. In the third step, the hydraulic push pump 237 pushes the limit block 235 to move along the moving groove 236, and the bending piece 231 directly abuts against the lower side of the tab. As the limit block 235 moves, the bending piece 231 will be slowly straightened under the extrusion of the outer elastic shaft 232 and the outer spring group 233, and the retraction hydraulic pump 234 provides height changes. In this way, the use process of a tab bending device for a large cylindrical lithium battery winding machine is completed.
