Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0002] In the production process of lithium batteries, the aluminum plastic film packaging shell is widely used in the packaging of lithium battery cells due to its good barrier property, corrosion resistance and plasticity. In order to ensure the safety and sealing of the battery cell, the aluminum plastic film raw material usually needs to go through a series of processing steps, including punch forming, to form a single-piece packaging shell with a concave structure. This concave design not only helps to fix the position of the battery cell, but also enhances the pressure resistance and explosion-proof performance of the packaging shell.

[0003] However, in the process of aluminum plastic film punch forming, due to uneven stress and springback characteristics, the edges of the film on both sides of the punch area often deform, resulting in problems such as bubbles, wrinkles or edge warping, which affects the subsequent cutting and packaging effect of lithium batteries.

However, the heating device of this patent is applied before punch drawing, which can only reduce the deformation such as damage, bubbles, wrinkles and edge warping of the aluminum plastic film to a certain extent when punching the shell, but cannot repair the deformation of the aluminum plastic film after punching the pit, resulting in that the cutting tool cannot accurately fit the predetermined cutting line due to the edge deformation of the aluminum plastic film in the subsequent cutting process, leading to large cutting size deviation and uneven cutting edges.

[0025] It should be noted that the embodiments in the present application and the features in the embodiments can be combined with each other without conflict, and the present application will be described in detail below with reference to the embodiments.

[0026] Embodiment one:

[0027] Figure 1 And Figure 2The specific structure of the material belt heat shaping device is shown. A material belt heat shaping device comprises two heating units, the two heating units are oppositely arranged along a first direction, and the two heating units respectively have a shaping gap 1 in a second direction, the shaping gap 1 is used for accommodating a side edge of the material belt conveyed along a third direction, so that the material belt edge can pass through the shaping gap 1 when conveyed along the third direction, and the heating shaping of the heating unit is obtained. The heating unit further comprises a spacing adjustment assembly, the spacing adjustment assembly is detachably connected with the heating unit, and is used for adjusting the gap size of the shaping gap 1 in the second direction. In the case that the material belt needs to be heated and shaped, such as the case that the material belt edge is deformed due to the impact pit, the gap size of the shaping gap 1 in the second direction can be reduced to approach the material belt edge, and then the heating unit provides heating shaping for the material belt edge, so that the deformed material belt edge with wrinkles, edge lifting and the like is restored to be flat, the subsequent cutting position is kept correct, and the cutting effect is ensured. When the material belt does not need to be heated and shaped, the gap of the shaping gap 1 in the second direction is increased to be far away from the material belt edge. Specifically, the material belt can be an aluminum plastic film belt, the first direction is a horizontal direction, that is, an X-axis direction, the second direction is a vertical direction, that is, a Y-axis direction, and the third direction is a front-rear direction, that is, a Z-axis direction. The material belt edge with wrinkles and edge lifting is restored to be flat through heat shaping, so that the material belt can be transported to a predetermined cutting position, the cutting tool can accurately adhere to a predetermined cutting line, the size of the material belt after cutting is correct, and the cutting edge is neat.

[0028] The spacing adjustment assembly is detachably connected with the displacement mechanism, and the displacement mechanism is further drivingly connected with the two heating units, for synchronously driving the two heating units to relatively approach each other along the first direction, so that the edges of the material belt on both sides simultaneously enter the area where the shaping gap 1 is located, to enter the preset shaping position, or synchronously driving the two heating units to relatively move away from each other along the first direction, so that the edges of the material belt on both sides simultaneously move away from the area where the shaping gap 1 is located, and are no longer heated.

[0029] The displacement mechanism comprises a guide 2 extending along the first direction, and the heating unit further comprises a sliding piece 3 and a heating assembly 4 detachably mounted on the sliding piece 3. Since the shaping gap 1 is located on the heating assembly 4, when the two heating assemblies 4 relatively approach or move away from each other along the first direction, the shaping gaps 1 on the two heating assemblies 4 also simultaneously approach or move away from the edges of the material belt on both sides. The sliding piece 3 is slidingly fitted on the guide 2, and is driven to reciprocally slide along the first direction by the first driving piece connected outside, so that the two heating units reciprocally slide along the first direction to realize relative approaching or moving away. The installation position of the heating unit can be adjusted according to the actual working condition, so as to meet the heat shaping demand of the material belt.

[0030] Preferably, the sliding member 3 can be specifically provided as a stand, the bottom of the stand is provided with a sliding block, the guide member 2 is provided with a sliding rail 21 matched with the sliding block in the first direction, so that the stand can slide on the guide member 2 in the first direction. By adjusting the distance between the two stands, the function of adjusting the distance between the two heating assemblies 4 is realized.

[0031] The heating assembly 4 includes an upper clamping assembly and a lower clamping assembly arranged oppositely, the upper clamping assembly includes an upper heating block 43 with a first opposite surface, the lower clamping assembly includes a lower heating block 44 with a second opposite surface, the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44 can generate heat, and each of the upper heating block 43 or the lower heating block 44 is independently controlled to adjust the heating temperature of the material belt and meet the heat shaping requirement. The first opposite surface is arranged opposite to the second opposite surface, and a shaping gap 1 for the material belt to pass through is left between the first opposite surface and the second opposite surface. When the edge of the material belt passes through the shaping gap 1 in the first direction, the edge can be in contact with the first opposite surface of the upper heating block 43 or the second opposite surface of the lower heating block 44, and then the edge is heat shaped and restored to be flat. Since the shaping gap 1 has a certain space, the material belt has a certain activity allowance, so after the edge of the material belt is sufficiently heat shaped, the material belt can continue to be conveyed in the first direction.

[0032] The upper clamping assembly and the lower clamping assembly are both provided with a clamping plate 41 and a heat insulation plate 42, the corresponding clamping plate 41 of the upper clamping assembly and the upper heating block 43 are clamped with a heat insulation plate 42, and the corresponding clamping plate 41 of the lower clamping assembly and the lower heating block 44 are clamped with another heat insulation plate 42. The clamping plate 41 is the mounting base plate of the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44, and the heat insulation plate 42 is used for heat insulation of the corresponding clamping plate 41 of the upper clamping assembly and the lower clamping assembly.

[0033] Preferably, the heat insulation plate 42 can be specifically provided as an L-shaped heat insulation plate 42, the heat insulation side edge 421 of the L-shaped heat insulation plate 42 is used for abutting the side wall of the upper heating block 43 close to the sliding member 3 or the side wall of the lower heating block 44 close to the sliding member 3, and the upper heating block 43 or the lower heating block 44 can be heat insulated in the lateral direction to prevent high temperature from affecting the normal work of other components.

[0034] Embodiment two:

[0035] In addition to the content described in Embodiment One, the first opposite surface and the second opposite surface can be arc-shaped surfaces, and the gap shape of the shaping gap 1 is arc-shaped. In addition, the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44 can be configured in a detachable manner, so that the worker can select and install the appropriate type of upper heating block 43 and lower heating block 44 according to the direction of the material tape edge curling, to perform thermal shaping on the material tape, and also facilitate the disassembly, cleaning, and replacement of the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44. For example, if the material tape curls upward, the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44 that can cooperate to form a downwardly curved arc-shaped gap are respectively arranged on the upper clamp assembly and the lower clamp assembly, to enhance the shaping effect when the material tape passes through the shaping gap 1.

[0036] The reversing mechanism includes two reversing driving members, which are respectively connected with the two heating assemblies 4 in a movable manner, for driving the two heating assemblies 4 to synchronously reverse, so as to synchronously adjust the bending direction of the two arc-shaped gaps to be upward or downward. In this way, even without disassembling and replacing the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44, the adjustment of the angle of the arc-shaped gap can be completed to adapt to the thermal shaping needs of different material tapes. It can be understood that, since the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44 are configured in a detachable manner, the positions of the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44 can also be directly replaced, that is, the bending direction of the arc-shaped gap between the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44 can be reversed, such as exchanging the upper heating block 43 and the lower heating block 44, so that the bending direction of the arc-shaped gap is reversed from upward to downward.

[0037] The spacing adjustment assembly includes a second driving member 5 and a mounting member 6. The mounting member 6 is detachably connected to the side wall of the sliding member 3, so that the upper clamp assembly and the lower clamp assembly can be simultaneously disassembled by disassembling and assembling the mounting member 6, facilitating the worker to clean, maintain, or replace the components. The second driving member 5 is fixedly arranged on the mounting member 6, and specifically, the second driving member 5 and the clamping plate 41 are fixedly connected by means of screw connection, clamping groove connection, or the like. The two clamping plates 41 are symmetrically arranged on both sides of the second driving member 5 in the second direction, and the two clamping plates 41 are driven by the second driving member 5 to relatively approach or move away in the second direction.

[0038] Figure 3The specific structure of the material belt heat shaping device with protective cover 7 is shown. A plurality of protective covers 7 can be laterally surrounded on the outer sides of the two upper clamping assemblies and / or the outer sides of the two lower clamping assemblies. On the one hand, it can prevent the upper clamping assembly or the lower clamping assembly from being knocked off due to collision, affecting the heat shaping effect. On the other hand, it can also prevent workers from being scalded by approaching and touching the heating shaping gap 1. The protective cover 7 can be specifically provided as two, laterally surrounded on the outer sides of the two upper clamping assemblies, or provided as four, surrounded on the outer sides of the two upper clamping assemblies and the outer sides of the two lower clamping assemblies. Specifically, the protective cover 7 is a plastic cover made of transparent plastic plate material, which is convenient for workers to observe the heat shaping condition of the material belt edge.

[0039] Embodiment three:

[0040] A punching equipment, comprising a material belt, a conveying mechanism for conveying the material belt, and a control box 8 and a material belt heat shaping device as described in embodiment two, the control box 8 is electrically connected with the material belt heat shaping device. Specifically, the conveying mechanism is used to transport the aluminum plastic film belt in the third direction, and the control box 8 can be electrically connected with the displacement mechanism and the two heating units respectively. The control box 8 can independently or cooperatively control whether the two heating units are turned on and the temperature of heating, so as to ensure that the heating temperature of the material belt edge is within a suitable temperature range and prevent the material belt edge from being overheated. Moreover, the displacement mechanism is electrically connected with the control box 8 to realize electric control of the displacement mechanism.

[0041] Further, the material belt heat shaping device is adjustably arranged on the main body of the punching equipment through the mounting seat. Specifically, the guide piece 2 is provided with a second sliding rail on the side away from the sliding piece 3, and the second sliding rail extends along the first direction. The guide piece 2 is slidably connected with one mounting seat on each end along the first direction, and the mounting seat can slide along the first direction on the second sliding rail. Further, a sliding groove along the third direction can also be provided on the side away from the guide piece 2 of the mounting seat, so as to adjust the horizontal position of the material belt heat shaping device on the punching equipment.

[0042] In addition, the material belt can be specifically a raw material belt required for the shell in the production and processing of soft package lithium batteries, i.e. an aluminum plastic film belt. When the aluminum plastic film belt needs to be heat shaped, the control box 8 can first adjust the interval of the two heating units in the first direction, so that the edges of both ends of the aluminum plastic film belt are located in the region of the shaping gap 1. Then, the interval adjusting assembly is used to adjust the gap size of the shaping gap 1 in the second direction to be close to the edges of both ends of the aluminum plastic film belt, and then the edges of both ends of the aluminum plastic film belt are heat shaped to restore the flatness of the edges of the aluminum plastic film belt, so as to ensure that the subsequent cutting position is correct, and then the cutting size is correct and the cutting edge is neat.
