[0020] The technical scheme in the embodiments of the utility model will be clearly and completely described in combination with the drawings in the embodiments of the utility model. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the utility model, not all the embodiments (for the convenience of description and understanding, the following is described from the top to the bottom). Based on the embodiments in the utility model, all other embodiments obtained by the person skilled in the art without creative labor belong to the scope of protection of the utility model. Figure 1
[0021] Please refer to Figures 1-3 The utility model provides a technical scheme: a battery module laser welding tool clamp, including bottom plate 1, positioning block 2, side edge positioning strip 3, pressing mechanism 5, scale 4 and baffle positioning plate 6.
[0022] The base plate 1 is fixed to the transfer fixture by pins, the positioning block 2 is fixed on both sides of the base plate 1 in the length direction, and the side positioning strip 3 is fixed on both sides of the base plate 1 in the width direction to limit the peripheral positioning of the module 8. The following example is three modules 8 placed on the base plate 1.
[0023] The pressing mechanism 5 includes a cylinder 51, a connecting plate 52, and a top plate 53. The cylinder 51 is fixed on the base plate 1. The output ends on both sides of the cylinder 51 are connected to the connecting plate 52. One side of the connecting plate 52 is connected to the top plate 53. The top plate 53 is directly facing the middle of the module 8. The cylinder 51 extends synchronously from both sides to press and position two adjacent modules. The output force of the cylinder 51 meets the requirement of 50KG.
[0024] The bar tablet positioning plate 6 is an integrated design and is placed on the top of the module 8 after the module 8 is extruded. The bar tablet positioning plate 6 is provided with multiple placement holes 9, and bar tablets 7 are placed in the placement holes 9. The number and position of the bar tablets 7 correspond to the required number and position of the module 8, ensuring that the center hole of the pole post and the center hole of the bar tablet are aligned. The error between the two in the width direction of the module 8 is ±0.3mm, and the error in the length direction of the module 8 is ±0.5mm.
[0025] Furthermore, in order to ensure the consistency of the welding position of module 8, that is, to fix the relative position of module 8, a scale 4 is installed on the side positioning strip 3 to check the size of module 8 after extrusion. If any abnormality is found, the consistency of the incoming module is checked in time and adjustments are made.
[0026] Furthermore, in order to facilitate the centering and pressing of modules 8 at different positions, the zero position on the scale 4 corresponding to the middle module position is located at the middle position of the scale 4, and the zero position on the scale 4 corresponding to the middle module positions at both ends is located at the outer end of the scale 4.
[0027] To ensure that the relative positions of modules 8 are fixed, the clamping mechanism 5 is located in the middle of adjacent modules 8.
[0028] In use: Place the three modules on the left, center, and right positions on the base plate, and determine the placement position according to the scale. Through the bidirectional synchronous action of the cylinders 51 in the two pressing mechanisms 5, apply a 50KG constraint force to the three modules 8 simultaneously, compressing the center position to correspond to the zero position of the scale 4 of the module 8. The zero position of the scale 4 at both ends is at the outer end, and the zero position of the scale 4 in the middle is at the middle position. After the module 8 is compressed to the design value, place the pad positioning plate 6 so that the center hole of the pad and the center hole of the battery terminal are aligned, which is convenient for welding.
[0029] After the three modules 8 are extruded, the error does not accumulate. The error of a single module 8 is ±0.5mm. The welding reference point is the relative position of the two end modules 8. The welding error of the bar sheet 7 can be controlled within ±0.5mm, avoiding abnormal problems such as insufficient welding tension, false welding, and broken welding.
[0030] This invention uses a clamping mechanism to compress the modules to the designed size, ensuring that the relative positions of the three modules are fixed, eliminating cumulative welding errors, and realizing welding of "multiple modules with the same fixture", thereby increasing production efficiency by 20%.
[0031] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
