[0002] Welding apparatuses in related technologies typically include an upper mold assembly and a lower mold assembly, which can clamp the workpiece to be welded (such as battery tabs) and perform welding on the workpiece.
[0003] Some technologies employ welding devices with two welding systems simultaneously, but this cannot guarantee the consistency of the welding effect of the two weld marks. Furthermore, the cost of two welding systems is relatively high, and the space required for arranging the two systems is also large, making layout inconvenient. Other technologies use welding devices with two upper dies sharing one lower die, but during the welding process, the jumping of the welding head can cause the gap between the two upper dies and the lower die to be inconsistent, resulting in uneven local pressure on the workpiece to be welded and significant differences in the welding effect of the two weld marks.

[0038] In the description of this utility model, "multiple" means two or more, and "several" means one or more.
[0039] The welding apparatus 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention is described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0040] like Figures 1-7 As shown, the welding device 1 according to an embodiment of the present invention has a first direction and a second direction, the first direction and the second direction being perpendicular to each other, and the welding device 1 includes an upper mold assembly 100 and a lower mold assembly 200. The upper mold assembly 100 and the lower mold assembly 200 can be arranged along the second direction.
[0041] The upper mold assembly 100 includes a first upper mold 110 and a second upper mold 120 spaced apart along a first direction, and the lower mold assembly 200 includes a first lower mold 210 and a second lower mold 220 spaced apart along a first direction. The first lower mold 210 and the first upper mold 110 are used to clamp and weld a part of the workpiece to be welded, and the second lower mold 220 and the second upper mold 120 are used to clamp and weld another part of the workpiece to be welded.
[0042] At least one of the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 is adjustable along a first direction, and at least one of the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 is adjustable along a second direction.
[0043] Wherein, at least one of the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 is adjustable along the first direction, meaning that the first lower mold 210 is adjustable along the first direction, or the second lower mold 220 is adjustable along the first direction, or both the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 are adjustable along the first direction.
[0044] And, at least one of the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 is adjustable in the second direction, which means that the first lower mold 210 is adjustable in the second direction, or the second lower mold 220 is adjustable in the second direction, or both the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 are adjustable in the second direction.
[0045] For example, the first direction can be horizontal, the second direction can be vertical, and the upper mold assembly 100 can be positioned above the lower mold assembly 200. The welding device 1 in this embodiment can be used for the tab welding of a power battery.
[0046] The upper mold assembly 100 can be a whole, that is, the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 move synchronously. By setting the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 at intervals along the first direction, positional interference between the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 can be avoided, so that the first upper mold 110 and the first lower mold 210 can cooperate, and the second upper mold 120 and the second lower mold 220 can cooperate.
[0047] Furthermore, one of the upper mold assembly 100 and the lower mold assembly 200 can be connected to a drive device for transmission. That is, one of the upper mold assembly 100 and the lower mold assembly 200 can be driven by the drive device to perform active movement, while the other can perform passive movement. For example, the drive device can be connected to the upper mold assembly 100, so that the drive device can drive the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 to rotate synchronously. When the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 rotate, the workpiece to be welded also moves. At this time, the friction between the workpiece to be welded and the lower mold assembly 200 can drive the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 to rotate, thereby allowing the upper mold assembly 100 and the lower mold assembly 200 to weld different parts of the workpiece to be welded.
[0048] According to the welding device 1 of this utility model embodiment, by providing a first upper mold 110 and a second upper mold 120 in the upper mold assembly 100, and a first lower mold 210 and a second lower mold 220 in the lower mold assembly 200, the first upper mold 110 and the first lower mold 210 can clamp a portion of the workpiece to be welded and weld it to form a weld mark, and the second upper mold 120 and the second lower mold 220 can clamp another portion of the workpiece to be welded and weld it to form another weld mark. That is, this utility model can use one welding device 1 to weld two weld marks, which not only ensures the consistency of the welding effect of the two weld marks, but also allows for a smaller volume of a single welding device 1, requires less space for arrangement, facilitates layout, and saves costs.
[0049] Furthermore, at least one of the first lower die 210 and the second lower die 220 can be adjusted along a first direction, and at least one of the first lower die 210 and the second lower die 220 can be adjusted along a second direction. With this configuration, the lower die assembly 200 can adjust its position according to the thickness and dimensions of the workpiece to be welded, thereby allowing for individual adjustment of the distance between the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110, as well as the distance between the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120, so that the lower die assembly 200 and the upper die assembly 100 can more stably clamp the workpiece to be welded. Furthermore, the first lower die 210 and the second lower die 220 are set separately. That is, the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110 are a group, and the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120 are a group. The two groups of welding heads can not interfere with each other, and there will be no interference between them during welding vibration. This makes it easier to keep the distance between the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110 consistent with the distance between the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120. The local pressure on the workpiece to be welded is more uniform, resulting in smaller differences in welding effect and thus meeting the welding requirements.
[0050] Thus, the welding device 1 according to the present utility model embodiment can realize two-stage welding, the welding effect of the two-stage welding is more consistent, the arrangement space requirement of the welding device 1 is small, and it is easy to arrange. Moreover, the position of the first lower die 210 and the second lower die 220 can be adjusted separately to avoid uneven local pressure on the workpiece to be welded, resulting in a better welding effect.
[0051] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the lower mold assembly 200 includes a base plate 230, a first base 240, and a second base 250.
[0052] The first base 240 is mounted on the base plate 230, and the first lower mold 210 is rotatably fixed to the first base 240. The second base 250 is mounted on the base plate 230 and is spaced apart from the first base 240 along the first direction. The second lower mold 220 is rotatably fixed to the second base 250.
[0053] At least one of the first base 240 and the second base 250 is movable along a first direction.
[0054] Wherein, at least one of the first base 240 and the second base 250 is movable along the first direction, meaning that one of the first base 240 and the second base 250 can be fixed to the base plate 230, and the other of the first base 240 and the second base 250 can move along the first direction, or both the first base 240 and the second base 250 can move on the base plate 230 along the first direction. By changing the position of the first base 240 and the second base 250 on the base plate 230, the spacing between the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 along the first direction can be adjusted. In this way, the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 dynamically adjust the spacing to match different upper mold assemblies 100, thus making the lower mold assembly 200 more adaptable.
[0055] In addition, the first base 240 and the second base 250 are installed at intervals along the first direction on the base plate 230. This can avoid positional interference between the first base 240 and the second base 250. When the first lower mold 210 is fixed to the first base 240 and the second lower mold 220 is fixed to the second base 250, the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 can be arranged at intervals along the first direction. This can ensure that when the first upper mold 110 and the first lower mold 210 are welding a part of the workpiece to be welded, the welding operations of the second upper mold 120 and the second lower mold 220 on the other part of the workpiece to be welded will not interfere with each other, making welding more convenient.
[0056] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 As shown, the base plate 230 is provided with a plurality of first fixing holes, and the first base 240 is provided with a plurality of first waist holes 241. The plurality of first waist holes 241 and the plurality of first fixing holes are connected one-to-one by a first fastener, and the first fastener is adjustable along a first direction within the first waist hole 241.
[0057] And / or, the base plate 230 is provided with a plurality of second fixing holes, and the second base 250 is provided with a plurality of second waist holes 251. The plurality of second waist holes 251 and the plurality of second fixing holes are connected one-to-one by a second fastener, and the second fastener is adjustable in the second waist hole 251 along the first direction.
[0058] For example, the first fastener and the second fastener can be bolts. Both the first slotted hole 241 and the second slotted hole 251 can be constructed as elongated holes extending along a first direction.
[0059] Specifically, the first fastener passes through the corresponding first waist hole 241 and the first fixing hole. Through the cooperation between the first fastener and the first fixing hole, the first base 240 can be stably connected to the base plate 230. Furthermore, when the position of the first base 240 relative to the base plate 230 in the first direction is changed, the first fastener can be fixed at different positions within the first waist hole 241, thereby allowing the first base 240 to move along the first direction on the base plate 230. In other words, with the cooperation of the first fastener with the first fixing hole and the first waist hole 241, the position of the first base 240 relative to the base plate 230 in the first direction can be adjusted.
[0060] Similarly, the second fastener passes through the corresponding second waist hole 251 and second fixing hole. Through the cooperation between the second fastener and the second fixing hole, the second base 250 can be stably connected to the base plate 230. Furthermore, when the position of the second base 250 relative to the base plate 230 in the first direction is changed, the second fastener can be fixed at different positions within the second waist hole 251, thereby allowing the second base 250 to move along the first direction on the base plate 230. In other words, with the cooperation of the second fastener with the second fixing hole and the second waist hole 251, the position of the second base 250 relative to the base plate 230 in the first direction can be adjusted.
[0061] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 As shown, a plurality of first waist holes 241 are respectively adjacent to opposite sides of the width direction of the first base 240; and / or, a plurality of second waist holes 251 are respectively adjacent to opposite sides of the width direction of the second base 250.
[0062] The width direction of the first base 240 can be perpendicular to the first direction. Furthermore, a plurality of first waist holes 241 located on the same side can be spaced apart along the first direction, and a plurality of second waist holes 251 located on the same side can also be spaced apart along the first direction.
[0063] This configuration allows multiple first waist holes 241 to be distributed at multiple locations on the first base 240, thereby improving the connection stability between the first base 240 and the base plate 230, and making the fit between the first lower mold 210 and the first upper mold 110 more stable. Similarly, multiple second waist holes 251 can be distributed at multiple locations on the second base 250, thereby improving the connection stability between the second base 250 and the base plate 230, and making the fit between the second lower mold 220 and the second upper mold 120 more stable.
[0064] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 5As shown, the movable distance of the first base 240 and / or the second base 250 along the first direction is L, where L satisfies: 20mm≤L≤60mm.
[0065] The movable distance of the first base 240 along the first direction can be 10mm to 30mm, and the movable distance of the second base 250 along the first direction can also be 10mm to 30mm.
[0066] This design has two advantages. First, it avoids the movable distance L of the first base 240 and / or the second base 250 along the first direction being too small, thus ensuring a larger adjustable range of distance between the first base 240 and the second base 250. That is, it allows for a larger adjustable range of distance between the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220, enabling the lower mold assembly 200 to adapt to more specifications of the upper mold assembly 100, thus increasing its applicability. Second, it avoids the movable distance L of the first base 240 and / or the second base 250 along the first direction being too large. It is understandable that commonly used upper mold assemblies 100 do not need to match the first lower mold 210 and the second lower mold 220 with excessively large distances. This design does not result in a waste of structural design, and the length of the waist hole is not too long, which is beneficial to improving the structural strength of the base plate 230. The base plate 230 provides better stability for fixing the first base 240 and the second base 250.
[0067] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figures 4-6 As shown, both the first base 240 and the second base 250 include an outer frame 242 and a base body 243.
[0068] The outer frame 242 is fixed to the base plate 230, the base body 243 is movably fixed inside the outer frame 242 along the second direction, the outer frame 242 covers the base body 243 circumferentially, the first lower mold 210 is rotatably fixed to the base body 243 of the first base 240, and the second lower mold 220 is rotatably fixed to the base body 243 of the second base 250.
[0069] By separating the first base 240 and the second base 250 into an outer frame 242 and a base body 243, the structure of the first base 240 and the second base 250 can be simplified, and the assembly of the first base 240 and the second base 250 with the base plate 230 can be facilitated. Moreover, the base body 243 is movably fixed within the outer frame 242 along the second direction, which allows adjustment of the height of the base body 243 along the second direction, thereby allowing adjustment of the distance between the first lower mold 210 and the first upper mold 110 in the second direction, as well as the distance between the second lower mold 220 and the second upper mold 120 in the second direction.
[0070] Furthermore, such as Figures 4-6As shown, the lower mold assembly 200 also includes a first adjusting bolt 260 and a second adjusting bolt 270. The base body 243 of the first base 240 is provided with a first bolt hole 244 extending in the second direction. The first adjusting bolt 260 passes through the first bolt hole 244 and abuts against the base plate 230. The first adjusting bolt 260 is used to adjust the height of the base body 243 of the first base 240 in the second direction.
[0071] And / or, the lower mold assembly 200 also includes a second adjusting bolt 270, the base body 243 of the second base 250 is provided with a second bolt hole 245 extending in a second direction, the second adjusting bolt 270 passes through the second bolt hole 245 and abuts against the base plate 230, and the second adjusting bolt 270 is used to adjust the height of the base body 243 of the second base 250 in the second direction.
[0072] Specifically, the portion of the upper end of the first adjusting bolt 260 extending beyond the base body 243 constitutes its effective length. When the first adjusting bolt 260 is rotated clockwise, its effective length decreases, allowing the first base 240 to move upwards along the second direction. This reduces the gap between the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110. Conversely, when the first adjusting bolt 260 is rotated counterclockwise, its effective length increases, allowing the first base 240 to move downwards along the second direction. This increases the gap between the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110. By rotating the first adjusting bolt 260, the distance between the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110 along the second direction can be changed. This allows for flexible adjustment of the distance between the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110 along the second direction according to the thickness of the workpiece to be welded, enabling the lower die assembly 200 and the upper die assembly 100 to better clamp and weld the workpiece.
[0073] Similarly, the portion of the upper end of the second adjusting bolt 270 extending beyond the base body 243 constitutes its effective length. When the second adjusting bolt 270 is rotated clockwise, its effective length decreases, allowing the second base 250 to move upwards along the second direction. This reduces the gap between the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120. Conversely, when the second adjusting bolt 270 is rotated counterclockwise, its effective length increases, allowing the second base 250 to move downwards along the second direction. This increases the gap between the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120. By rotating the second adjusting bolt 270, the distance between the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120 along the second direction can be changed. This allows for flexible adjustment of the distance between the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120 along the second direction according to the thickness of the workpiece to be welded, enabling the lower die assembly 200 and the upper die assembly 100 to better clamp and weld the workpiece.
[0074] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the lower mold assembly 200 also includes a first bracket 280 and a second bracket 290.
[0075] One end of the first bracket 280 is rotatably connected to the first base 240, and the other end of the first bracket 280 extends out of the first base 240 toward the second base 250. The first lower mold 210 is connected to the other end of the first bracket 280. One end of the second bracket 290 is rotatably connected to the second base 250, and the other end of the second bracket 290 extends out of the second base 250 toward the first base 240. The second lower mold 220 is connected to the other end of the second bracket 290.
[0076] The first base 240 can support and fix the first bracket 280, and the other end of the first bracket 280 extends out of the first base 240. In this way, when the first lower mold 210 is connected to the other end of the first bracket 280, positional interference between the first lower mold 210 and the first base 240 can be avoided. When the first lower mold 210 is connected to the other end of the first bracket 280, the first lower mold 210 and the first bracket 280 can rotate synchronously with the first base 240.
[0077] Similarly, the second base 250 can support and fix the second bracket 290, and the other end of the second bracket 290 extends out of the first base 240. In this way, when the second lower mold 220 is connected to the other end of the second bracket 290, positional interference between the second lower mold 220 and the second base 250 can be avoided. When the second lower mold 220 is connected to the other end of the second bracket 290, the second lower mold 220 can rotate synchronously with the second bracket 290 relative to the second base 250.
[0078] Furthermore, such as Figure 5 and Figure 6 As shown, the first bracket 280 includes a first rotating shaft 281 and a first mounting plate 282 connected to each other. The first rotating shaft 281 is rotatably connected to the first base 240 through a plurality of first bearings 285. The first lower mold 210 is connected to the first mounting plate 282. The second bracket 290 includes a second rotating shaft 291 and a second mounting plate 292 connected to each other. The second rotating shaft 291 is rotatably connected to the second base 250 through a plurality of second bearings 295. The second lower mold 220 is connected to the second mounting plate 292.
[0079] The first rotating shaft 281 is rotatably connected to the first base 240 via the first bearing 285. This allows the first lower mold 210 to rotate more smoothly relative to the first base 240 when it is connected to the first bracket 280. Furthermore, by providing a first mounting plate 282, the cross-sectional area of which can be larger than that of the first rotating shaft 281, the first mounting plate 282 can better support and fix the first lower mold 210. The cross-sectional shape of the first mounting plate 282 can be the same as or adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the first lower mold 210, further improving the connection stability between the first lower mold 210 and the first mounting plate 282, thereby making the first lower mold 210 more stably fixed to the first bracket 280.
[0080] Similarly, the second rotating shaft 291 is rotatably connected to the second base 250 via the second bearing 295. This allows the second lower mold 220 to rotate more smoothly relative to the second base 250 when connected to the second bracket 290. Furthermore, by providing the second mounting plate 292, the cross-sectional area of which can be larger than that of the second rotating shaft 291, the second mounting plate 292 can better support and fix the second lower mold 220. The cross-sectional shape of the second mounting plate 292 can be the same as or adapted to the cross-sectional shape of the second lower mold 220, further improving the connection stability between the second lower mold 220 and the second mounting plate 292, thereby making the second lower mold 220 more stably fixed to the second bracket 290.
[0081] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 3 and Figure 6 As shown, the first mounting plate 282 has a plurality of first connecting holes 283 arranged circumferentially along the first mounting plate 282, and the first lower mold 210 has a plurality of second connecting holes 211. The plurality of first connecting holes 283 and the plurality of second connecting holes 211 are connected one-to-one by first pins 284. In this way, not only can the first lower mold 210 and the first mounting plate 282 be connected by the first pins 284, but the first pins 284 can also be used to pre-position the assembly of the first lower mold 210 and the first mounting plate 282, thereby simplifying the installation steps of the first lower mold 210 and the first mounting plate 282 and improving the installation efficiency. Furthermore, a first guide sleeve can be provided in the first connecting hole 283 and / or the second connecting hole 211. In this way, the first guide sleeve can be used to stably connect the first pin 284 with the first connecting hole 283 and the second connecting hole 211, thereby making the first lower mold 210 stably fixed to the first mounting plate 282 and ensuring the concentricity of the first lower mold 210 and the first mounting plate 282.
[0082] Similarly, the second mounting plate 292 is provided with a plurality of third connecting holes 293 arranged circumferentially along the second mounting plate 292, and the second lower mold 220 is provided with a plurality of fourth connecting holes 221. The plurality of third connecting holes 293 and the plurality of fourth connecting holes 221 are connected one-to-one by the second pins 294. In this way, not only can the second lower mold 220 and the second mounting plate 292 be connected by the second pins 294, but the second pins 294 can also be used to pre-position the assembly of the second lower mold 220 and the second mounting plate 292, thereby simplifying the installation steps of the second lower mold 220 and the second mounting plate 292 and improving the installation efficiency. Furthermore, a second guide sleeve can be provided in the third connecting hole 293 and / or the fourth connecting hole 221. This allows the second pin 294 to be stably connected to the third connecting hole 293 and the fourth connecting hole 221, thereby allowing the second lower mold 220 to be stably fixed to the second mounting plate 292 and ensuring the concentricity of the second lower mold 220 and the second mounting plate 292.
[0083] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first lower mold 210 is provided with a first conical surface 212 and a first toothed surface 213. The first conical surface 212 is located on the side of the first toothed surface 213 away from the second lower mold 220 and protrudes from the first toothed surface 213. It is also away from the second lower mold 220 along the axial direction of the first lower mold 210. The outer diameter of the first conical surface 212 is increased.
[0084] With this configuration, when the first lower die 210 and the first upper die 110 are welding parts of the workpiece to be welded, the first conical surface 212 can abut against the first upper die 110 in a direction away from the second lower die 220 along the axial direction of the first lower die 210, so as to ensure that the welding position of the first upper die 110 is always in contact with the first toothed surface 213 of the first lower die 210. This can make the pressure distribution of the workpiece to be welded uniform and stable during the welding process, so that the weld point is flatter and wrinkle-free, and the welding quality is higher.
[0085] Furthermore, the second lower mold 220 is provided with a second conical surface 222 and a second toothed surface 223. The second conical surface 222 is located on the side of the second toothed surface 223 away from the first lower mold 210 and protrudes from the second toothed surface 223. It is also located away from the first lower mold 210 along the axial direction of the second lower mold 220. The outer diameter of the second conical surface 222 is increased.
[0086] With this configuration, when the second lower die 220 and the second upper die 120 are welding another part of the workpiece to be welded, the second conical surface 222 can abut against the second upper die 120 in a direction away from the first lower die 210 along the axial direction of the second lower die 220, so as to ensure that the welding position of the second upper die 120 is always in contact with the second toothed surface 223 of the second lower die 220. This can make the pressure distribution of the workpiece to be welded uniform and stable during the welding process, so that the weld point is flatter and wrinkle-free, and the welding quality is higher.
[0087] The first conical surface 212 abuts the first upper die 110 away from the second lower die 220 along the axial direction of the first lower die 210, and the second conical surface 222 abuts the second upper die 120 away from the first lower die 210 along the axial direction of the second lower die 220. Thus, when the upper die assembly 100 shifts in one direction along the first direction, the first conical surface stops the first upper die 110; and when the upper die assembly 100 shifts in another direction along the first direction, the second conical surface stops the second upper die 120. This ensures that the welding position of the first upper die 110 is always in contact with the first toothed surface 213 of the first lower die 210, and the welding position of the second upper die 120 is always in contact with the second toothed surface 223 of the second lower die 220. This results in uniform pressure on the workpiece during welding, reducing deviation and making the weld point smoother.
[0088] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 6 As shown, the first lower die 210 also has a first machining surface 214, which is located on the side of the first toothed surface 213 adjacent to the second lower die 220. The outer diameter of the first machining surface 214 is smaller than the outer diameter of the first toothed surface 213, and it is closer to the second lower die 220 along the axial direction of the first lower die 210, thus reducing the outer diameter of the first machining surface 214. This simplifies the structure of the first lower die 210 and facilitates removal of the die along the axial direction of the first lower die 210 after machining.
[0089] Furthermore, the second lower die 220 is also provided with a second machining surface 224, which is located on the side of the second toothed surface 223 adjacent to the first lower die 210. The outer diameter of the second machining surface 224 is smaller than the outer diameter of the second toothed surface 223, and it is closer to the first lower die 210 along the axial direction of the second lower die 220, thus reducing the outer diameter of the second machining surface 224. This simplifies the structure of the second lower die 220 and facilitates removal of the die along the axial direction of the second lower die 220 after machining.
[0090] In some specific embodiments of this utility model, such as Figure 1 and Figure 7As shown, the upper mold assembly 100 also includes a connector 130, which is disposed between the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 and connected to the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 respectively.
[0091] For example, the connector 130 can be connected to the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 via a flexible screw to ensure the stability and reliability of the connection. In this way, the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 can be connected into a single unit via the connector 130. Furthermore, the distance between the first upper mold 110 and the second upper mold 120 can be changed by using different connectors 130. For example, the adjustable size of the connector 130 is 20mm to 60mm. That is, different upper mold assemblies 100 can be formed by using different connectors 130, allowing the welding device 1 to process different workpieces, thus increasing its applicability.
