Referring to fig. 1, in this embodiment, the lifting mechanism 500 includes a bearing seat 540, a lifting screw 510, a lifting screw 520, a sleeve 530 and a supporting frame 560, specifically, the bearing seat 540 is fixedly connected to the mounting seat 600, two sides of the bearing seat 540 are provided with guide rails 550, the supporting frame 560 is slidably connected to the guide rails 550, the lamination table 100 is fixedly arranged on the supporting frame 560, the lifting screw 510 is in threaded connection with the lifting screw 520, wherein the lifting screw 520 is driven to rotate by a lifting driving member (not shown in the figure), the sleeve 530 is sleeved on the lifting screw 520, the lower end of the sleeve is fixedly connected with the lifting screw 510, and the upper end of the sleeve is fixedly connected with the supporting frame 560.
When the lamination table 100 needs to move up and down, the lifting driving member is started to rotate the lifting screw rod 520, the lifting screw rod 510 ascends or descends under the spiral transmission action of the lifting screw rod 520 and the lifting screw nut 510 and the sliding limit action of the guide rail 550, and the sleeve 530 drives the support frame 560 to ascend or descend in the movement process of the lifting screw nut 510 due to the fixed length of the sleeve 530 between the lifting screw nut 510 and the support frame 560, so that the lamination table 100 is lifted up and down.
Fig. 5 is a schematic diagram of the movement paths of the pressing blade 210 and the battery cell 700 when the lamination device provided in the present embodiment performs lamination once. With continued reference to fig. 3, and with reference to fig. 5, after the membrane 710 spreads from n to m along the lamination table 100, the carrying mechanism places the pole piece 720 on the membrane 710, after the pole piece 720 is in place, the vertical moving mechanism 400 drives the two pressing knives 210 on the m side to rise (the path of the pressing knife 210 is a) to be slightly away from the pole piece 720 below the pole piece, specifically, the rising path of the pressing knife 210 can be S1, the horizontal moving mechanism 300 drives the two pressing knives 210 on the m side to move oppositely (the path of the pressing knife 210 is b) so as to enable the pressing knife 210 to draw out from the electric core 700, the lifting mechanism 500 drives the lamination table 100 to drop for a certain distance (the path of the electric core 700 is f), specifically, the falling path of the lamination table 100 can be H so as to ensure that the highest surface of the lamination table 100 where the electric core 700 is placed is always on the same plane after the next lamination action is completed, the vertical moving mechanism 400 drives the two pressing knives 210 on the m side to rise (the path of the pressing knife 210 is c), specifically, the rising path of the pressing knife 210 on the m side can be ensured to be opposite to move to the pressing knife 210 on the m side, and the pressing mechanism 210 can be pressed against the highest surface of the electric core 700 is pressed down (the pressing knife 210 is the path of the pressing core 700 is pressed) to be pressed down) to be the pressing the electric core 700).
During the movement of the m-side pressing blade 210, the n-side pressing blade 210 is always stationary, and the n-side pressing cylinder 230 applies a constant tensile force to the pressing blade 210 under the action of the pressing cylinder 230, so that the pressing blade 210 applies a constant pressure to the battery cell 700 to reliably press the battery cell 700 against the lamination table 100. After the pressing operation of the pressing blade 210 on the m side is completed, a new layer of membrane 710 is spread along the lamination table 100 from the m side to the n side, then the pole piece 720 with the polarity opposite to that of the pole piece 720 is placed on the membrane 710 by the carrying mechanism, the pressing blade 210 on the n side repeats the working procedure of the pressing blade 210 on the m side, and the end of the battery cell 700 on the n side is pressed again. The lamination operation of the battery cell 700 is finally achieved by such cyclic reciprocation of the m-side press 210 and the n-side press 210.
Specifically, when the pressing blade 210 descends along the path e, the descending stroke thereof is the sum of S1 and S2, wherein S1 may be smaller than S2. In the embodiment, the main purpose of the ascending travel S1 of the pressing blade 210 is to prevent the pressing blade 210 from scratching the battery cell 700 during the blade drawing process, and the main purpose of the ascending travel S2 of the pressing blade 210 is to avoid the battery cell 700 on the lamination table 100.
In this embodiment, the term "primary laminate" refers to that the membrane 710 is folded once from the m-side to the n-side (or from the n-side to the m-side), and one pole piece 720 is placed on the membrane 710. That is, H is equal to the sum of the thicknesses of one membrane 710 and one pole piece 720.
In this embodiment, the pressing blades 210 on the m side and the n side may press the ends of the battery cell 700 during the pressing process of the battery cell 700. By the arrangement, the membrane 710 to be folded is not pulled by the next folding action, meanwhile, the battery cell 700 after the folding is completed is not deformed loosely, and the lamination effect of the lamination device of the embodiment is further improved.
The embodiment also provides a lamination machine, which comprises the lamination device.
By arranging the above-mentioned lamination device in the lamination machine, the lamination machine accordingly has all the advantages of the above-mentioned lamination device, and will not be described in detail here.
Specifically, the lamination machine may further include a control module, where the control module is electrically connected to the first driving member 320, the second driving member 420, and the lifting driving member. By the arrangement, automatic lamination of the lamination machine is realized, so that the lamination efficiency of the battery cell 700 is improved.
In addition, the lamination machine may further include a handling mechanism for handling the pole piece 720 and an unreeling mechanism for unreeling the diaphragm 710, wherein a driving part of the handling mechanism and a driving part of the unreeling mechanism may be electrically connected with the control module.
In the lamination process, the lamination device is fixed and the unreeling mechanism drives the diaphragm 710 to reciprocate, so that lamination operation on the lamination table 100 can be realized, or the lamination device is reciprocated and the unreeling mechanism is fixed, and the lamination operation can be realized by utilizing the lamination table 100 to receive the diaphragm released by the unreeling mechanism.
