Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model belongs to the field of battery processing technology, and in particular relates to a hot-drilling needle for cylindrical battery cells. Background Technology

[0002] A battery cell refers to a single electrochemical cell containing positive and negative electrodes. It is generally not used directly but is the energy storage part of a rechargeable battery. The quality of the battery cell directly determines the quality of the rechargeable battery. During the battery processing, cylindrical battery cells need to be perforated. The purpose of perforation is to perforate the center hole in the middle of the cylindrical battery cell to facilitate the insertion of the bottom welding pin in the next process. The bottom welding pin is inserted from the positive electrode side.

[0003] The conventional hot-drilling needle structure generally uses a cylindrical needle smaller than the center hole of a cylindrical battery cell, which is inserted into the center hole of the battery cell to make the center hole round. However, this requires a specific size of cylindrical battery cell center hole to be equipped with a hot-drilling needle. Utility Model Content

[0004] The purpose of this utility model embodiment is to provide a cylindrical battery cell hot-drilling needle, which aims to solve the problems mentioned in the background art.

[0005] This utility model embodiment is implemented as follows: a cylindrical battery cell hot-drilling needle, comprising:

[0006] The conical hot-hole end has a large taper surface structure and is used for insertion into the positive electrode hole of the cylindrical battery cell.

[0007] The guide heating end is connected to the conical hot hole end. The diameter of the guide heating end is the same as the maximum diameter of the conical hot hole end, and the diameter of the positive electrode hole of the cylindrical cell is smaller than the diameter of the guide heating end.

[0008] Preferably, the hot-hole needle further includes a fixed end, which is connected to the guide heating end.

[0009] Preferably, the fixed end, the guide heating end, and the conical hot hole end are an integral structure.

[0010] Preferably, the guiding heating end and the conical hot hole end are integrally connected, and the fixed end and the guiding heating end are detachably connected.

[0011] This utility model provides a cylindrical battery cell hot-drilling needle that addresses the problem in existing technologies where the diameter of the hot-drilling needle must be smaller than the center hole, and a different hot-drilling needle is required for each specification of cylindrical battery cell. The needle is improved by featuring a conical hot-drilling end with a large taper. During operation, the conical hot-drilling end is inserted into the positive electrode hole of the cylindrical battery cell. The insertion depth is adjusted according to the size of the center hole of the battery cell, ensuring that the conical surface of the hot-drilling needle contacts and rounds the positive electrode side hole of the cylindrical battery cell. After hot-drilling, the needle is withdrawn. This hot-drilling needle can be inserted to the same size as the inner hole of the cylindrical battery cell, resulting in a more rounded positive electrode side hole after hot-drilling. Furthermore, this hot-drilling needle is applicable to various models of cylindrical battery cells, as long as the diameter of the center hole of the battery cell is smaller than the diameter of the guiding heating end.
