Detailed implementation manners

[0038] Next, the technical solutions of the present application will be clearly and completely described in conjunction with the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art based on the embodiments of the present application without creative efforts shall fall within the protection scope of the present application.

[0039] In an embodiment of the present application, a cooling and shaping tooling 100 is provided for cooling and shaping a battery housing. For the specific structure of the cooling and shaping tooling 100, please refer to Figures 1 to 5, which includes a workpiece groove 140 and a support member 150. Among them, the workpiece groove 140 is used to accommodate the battery housing to be cooled; the support member 150 is used to support the lower surface of the battery housing. The support member 150 is height-adjustable along the Z-axis direction and can move along the X-axis direction and / or the Y-axis direction. A plurality of support members 150 are arranged at intervals in the workpiece groove 140.

[0040] According to the cooling and shaping tooling 100 of the present application, the spatial position of the support member 150 can be adjusted from multiple directions, which helps to improve the support effect of the support member 150, ensure that the upper cover profile meets the battery packaging requirements, and thus improve the use safety of the battery pack.

[0041] As Figure 1 shown, the workpiece groove 140 is a groove with an open top. After demolding, the battery upper cover is transferred into the workpiece groove 140 through the open top of the workpiece groove 140. The workpiece groove 140 is used to fix the battery upper cover to be cooled and shaped, so that the battery upper cover is fixed relative to the cooling and shaping tooling 100. This not only enhances the stability of the battery upper cover, prevents the battery upper cover from moving relative to the cooling and shaping tooling 100, but also facilitates the rapid transfer of the battery upper cover to the next process, improving the production efficiency of the battery upper cover.

[0042] As Figure 1 and Figures 3 to 5 shown, the cooling and shaping tooling 100 further includes a workbench 110 and a temperature detection device 120.

And a plurality of temperature detection devices 120 are arranged at intervals on the support plate 112 to realize the temperature acquisition of different positions of the battery upper cover.

[0044] As shown Figures 1 to 5 in Figures 1 to 5 , a guide rail 160 extending in the X-axis direction and / or the Y-axis direction is provided in the workpiece groove 140.

Exemplarily, as Figures 1 to 5 shown, both ends of the X-direction guide rail 161 in the X-axis direction are inserted and loaded into the Y-direction adjustment groove 1622 of the corresponding Y-direction guide rail 162 to realize the sliding connection between the X-direction guide rail 161 and the two Y-direction guide rails 162. Of course, as an embodiment not shown, both ends of the Y-direction guide rail 162 in the Y-axis direction are inserted and loaded into the X-direction adjustment groove 1612 of the corresponding X-direction guide rail 161 to realize the sliding connection between the Y-direction guide rail 162 and the two X-direction guide rails 161.

[0053] For the specific structure of the horizontal adjustment device 170, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 , which includes a base 171, an X-direction bolt, and a Y-direction bolt. Among them, the base 171 includes a first vertical wall 1711 disposed opposite to the open end of the Y-direction adjustment groove 1622 and a second vertical wall 1712 disposed opposite to the open end of the X-direction adjustment groove 1612. The first vertical wall 1711 is provided with a first through hole 1713, and the second vertical wall 1712 is provided with a second through hole 1714; the X-direction bolt is slidably disposed in the Y-direction adjustment groove 1622, and the threaded end of the X-direction bolt passes through the open end of the Y-direction adjustment groove 1622 and the first through hole 1713 and is screwed with an X-direction nut; the Y-direction bolt is slidably disposed in the X-direction adjustment groove 1612, and the threaded end of the Y-direction bolt passes through the open end of the X-direction adjustment groove 1612 and the second through hole 1714 and is screwed with a Y-direction nut.

[0054] For the specific structure of the support member 150, please refer to Figure 2 and Figure 5 , which includes a support block 151, a sliding seat 152, and a height adjustment device 153. Among them, the support block 151 is used to support on the lower surface of the battery housing; the sliding seat 152 is disposed below the support block 151, and the sliding seat 152 can slide along the X-axis direction and / or the Y-axis direction; the height adjustment device 153 is detachably connected to the support block 151 and the sliding seat 152, and is used to adjust the height of the support block 151 along the Z-axis direction, so that the height of the support member 150 along the Z-axis direction is adjustable and can move along the X-axis direction and / or the Y-axis direction.

[0055] For the specific structure of the height adjustment device 153, please refer to Figure 5 , which includes a threaded column 1531 disposed along the Z-axis direction and a first nut 1532 screwed with the threaded column 1531.

[0058] As Figure 1 , Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the cooling and shaping tooling 100 further includes a fixing mechanism disposed on the support plate 112. Among them, a plurality of pressing devices 130 are spaced apart on the outer peripheral side of the support frame 113 and located above the battery upper cover, and are used for pressing different positions of the battery upper cover. After the demolded battery upper cover is transferred to the workpiece groove 140, the pressing device 130 abuts against the top surface of the battery upper cover to apply a downward pressure to the battery upper cover, which can not only limit the relative movement of the battery upper cover with respect to the cooling and shaping tooling 100, but also prevent the local warping or curling of the battery upper cover, so that the cooled and shaped battery upper cover has good flatness, which is beneficial to improving the assembly efficiency of the battery pack; when the temperature detection device 120 detects that the surface temperature of the battery upper cover drops to the target temperature or below, the pressing device 130 separates from the battery upper cover, so that the battery upper cover can be quickly transferred to the next process, shortening the production time of the battery upper cover and improving the automation and intelligence level of the battery upper cover production.

[0059] As Figure 3 and Figure 4 shown, the cooling and shaping tooling 100 further includes a cooling device 180 for performing a cooling operation on the battery upper cover. Among them, a plurality of cooling devices 180 are spaced apart at the bottom of the support plate 112, and the support plate 112 and the cooling device 180 are provided with ventilation openings penetrating the workpiece groove 140 at relative positions, which is beneficial to air flow, taking away the heat of the battery upper cover, accelerating the cooling speed of the battery upper cover, and thus improving the production efficiency of the battery upper cover.

[0060] As an embodiment not shown, the cooling and shaping tooling 100 further includes a control mechanism. The temperature detection device 120 and the cooling device 180 are respectively connected to the control mechanism. The control mechanism determines whether to control the cooling device 180 to perform a cooling operation according to the temperature data detected by the temperature detection device 120. Exemplarily, the cooling device 180 can be a cooling fan. The cooling fan can be arranged below the battery upper cover. The cooling fan can generate a suction or blowing air flow near the battery upper cover. By connecting the control mechanism to the cooling device 180, it is determined whether to turn on or off the cooling device 180 according to the difference between the actual temperature detected by the temperature detection device 120 and the target temperature, and whether to adjust the operation mode of the cooling device 180. The cooling control method is more refined, which can not only improve the cooling efficiency and cooling quality, but also effectively control the energy consumption so as to achieve the purpose of energy saving.

[0061] Exemplarily, the temperature detection device 120 can be a temperature sensor. The temperature sensor can sense the temperature and convert it into an available output signal. The control mechanism can be a temperature controller. The temperature controller is communicatively connected to multiple temperature sensors. The temperature controller automatically samples and monitors the surface temperature of the battery upper cover through the temperature sensors, and controls the pressing device 130 to perform a pressing operation and controls the cooling device 180 to perform a cooling operation according to the detected surface temperature of the battery upper cover. This not only helps improve the cooling efficiency and cooling quality of the battery upper cover, but also helps save energy and reduce consumption, as well as realize the automated and intelligent production of the battery upper cover.
