Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This utility model relates to the field of lithium-ion battery welding and packaging technology, and in particular to a lithium-ion battery welding protection device. Background Technology
[0002] In the manufacturing process of existing lithium-ion batteries, laser welding is often used to achieve a firm connection between battery components. Common areas requiring laser welding include explosion-proof valves, terminals, flexible connections, casing seals (also known as side seals or edge seals), injection holes, and modules. During the welding of terminals and electrodes, the laser can easily burn the casing seals, and welding spatter can fall into the injection holes and burn the explosion-proof valves. Therefore, a lithium-ion battery welding protection device is proposed. Utility Model Content
[0003] To address at least one of the aforementioned technical shortcomings, this utility model provides a lithium-ion battery welding protection device, comprising two symmetrically arranged protective shells. The two protective shells are fastened together and installed on the top of the lithium-ion battery. The protective shells are rectangular shell structures with two through-holes on the two sides near the lithium-ion battery. The fastening surfaces of the protective shells have two welding grooves for welding electrodes onto the terminals. The two fastened welding grooves fit around the electrodes. The middle of the protective shell has a receiving cavity for accommodating an explosion-proof valve and a liquid injection hole.
[0004] Furthermore, a buffer layer fixed to the inner wall of the protective shell is provided between the contact surface between the protective shell and the lithium-ion battery.
[0005] Preferably, the buffer layer is made of elastic rubber.
[0006] Furthermore, it also includes a cylinder, the output end of which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of the protective shell.
[0007] Preferably, the cylinder is set at a 45° angle with the vertical direction.
[0008] Preferably, the cylinder is arranged vertically.
[0009] Preferably, the cylinder is horizontally positioned.
[0010] Beneficial effects: When welding electrodes onto the terminals, first fasten two protective shells together from the top sides of the lithium-ion battery to protect the explosion-proof valve and the filling hole in the containment cavity. At the same time, the protective shells protect the casing sealing area between the outer shell and the top edge of the lithium-ion battery. Then, place the electrodes into the welding tank and weld the terminals and electrodes together.
[0011] The purpose, features, and advantages of this utility model will be further explained in conjunction with the embodiments and with reference to the accompanying drawings. Attached Figure Description

[0016] Please refer to Figures 1 to 3 ;
[0017] This embodiment provides a lithium-ion battery welding protection device, including two symmetrically arranged protective shells 1. The two protective shells 1 are fastened and installed on the top of the lithium-ion battery. The protective shell 1 has a cuboid shell structure and is arranged through the two sides near the lithium-ion battery. The fastening surface of the protective shell 1 has two welding grooves 101 for welding electrodes on the terminal post. The two fastened welding grooves 101 fit the outer periphery of the electrode. The middle part of the protective shell 1 has a receiving cavity 102 for accommodating the explosion-proof valve and the liquid injection hole.
[0018] In practice, when welding electrodes onto the terminals, the two protective shells 1 are first fastened together from the top sides of the lithium-ion battery, so that the receiving cavity 102 protects the explosion-proof valve and the liquid injection hole. At the same time, the protective shells 1 protect the shell sealing area between the outer shell and the top edge of the lithium-ion battery. Then, the electrodes are placed into the welding groove 101, and the terminals and electrodes are welded together.
[0019] Furthermore, a buffer layer 103 fixed to the inner wall of the protective shell 1 is provided between the contact surface between the protective shell 1 and the lithium-ion battery.
[0020] In practice, the buffer layer 103 is used to prevent the protective shell 1 from damaging the surface of the lithium-ion battery.
[0021] The principle for selecting materials for the buffer layer 103 is that the hardness should be less than that of the surface of the lithium-ion battery.
[0022] Preferably, the buffer layer 103 is made of elastic rubber.
[0023] In practice, elastic rubber is used to prevent damage to the surface of the lithium-ion battery.
[0024] Furthermore, it also includes cylinder 2, the output end of which is fixedly connected to the outer wall of protective shell 1.
[0025] In practical implementation, by setting up cylinder 2, the protective shell 1 can be automatically controlled by cylinder 2, so that the protective shell 1 can be adapted to the automated welding production line.
[0026] Preferably, the cylinder 2 is set at an angle of 45° with the vertical direction.
[0027] In practice, the protective shell 1 can be positioned at a 45° angle away from and close to the lithium-ion battery.
[0028] Preferably, cylinder 2 is arranged vertically.
[0029] In practice, the protective shell 1 can be positioned vertically away from and close to the lithium-ion battery.
[0030] Preferably, cylinder 2 is horizontally positioned.
[0031] In practice, the protective shell 1 can be positioned horizontally away from and close to the lithium-ion battery.
