The guide shaft 9 is fixed between the first fixing plate 81 and the second fixing plate 82, and the sliding plates 4 can slide axially along the guide shaft 9 to increase or decrease the distance between the two sliding plates 4. Specifically, the guide shaft 9 may be sleeved on the sliding plate 4, as long as the sliding plate 4 can slide along the axial direction of the guide shaft 9, and the specific form is not limited. The sliding plates 4 are placed vertically, and the battery 1 between the two sliding plates 4 is also placed vertically. Between the slide plate 4 and the cell 1 a buffer layer 6 is fixed, in particular the buffer layer 6 may be fixed on either side of the slide plate 4 or the core layer 5. Preferably, the buffer layer 6 may be fixed on any one side surface of the electrical core layer 5, the buffer layer 6 may be fixed on one side of the electrical core layer 5 close to the sliding plate 4, or may be fixed on one side of the electrical core layer 5 far from the sliding plate 4, wherein the electrical core layer 5 is made of a thin and soft material, and has negligible thickness and no influence on the transmission of force. In fig. 1, the number of guide shafts 9 is 4, and the guide shafts are respectively provided at four corners of the fixing plate 8. The driving members 3 are located at the geometric center of the first fixing plate 81, the number of the driving members 3 is set as required, for example, 2 or 4 driving members can be set, and the plurality of driving members 3 are uniformly distributed on the first fixing plate 81. The driving part 3 is specifically a cylinder, a motor and the like, and the function of the driving part can be realized. The number is only an example, and should not be construed as a limitation to the present application, and the specific number is not limited as long as the number is set as required.

The driving member 3 is provided at one side of the first fixed plate 81 to adjust the distance between the sliding plates 4, and preferably, the sliding plate 4 at the leftmost side may be fixed, and the remaining sliding plates 4 may be slid along the guide shaft 9 to adjust the distance between the sliding plates 4. If necessary, if the battery pressurizing apparatus is required to have higher efficiency, the driving member may be provided on one side of the second fixing plate 82, the driving member 3 provided on the second fixing plate 82 is connected to the leftmost sliding plate 4 through the connecting rod, and the driving members 3 on the left and right sides are simultaneously operated to press the sliding plates 4 in the directions approaching each other during operation. The distance between the sliding plates 4 is reduced, and the V-shaped cell layer is gradually folded, so that the battery 1 placed on the V-shaped cell layer is pressed.

In the above embodiment of the present application, the battery pressurizing device is of a V-shaped structure for the core layer used for placing the battery 1, so that when the battery 1 is placed into the battery pressurizing device, the battery 1 can be placed on the V-shaped core layer, that is, the battery 1 can be held by the V-shaped core layer, so that the bottom of the battery 1 cannot fall on the ground due to gravity, and the whole part of the battery 1 is on the core layer 5. And the height of the bottom of the V-shaped cell layer is not lower than that of the sliding plate 4, so that the whole surface of the battery 1 can be pressurized, and the surface processing area of the battery 1 is increased (namely the surfaces are two planes on the left side and the right side of the battery 1 shown in figure 1). The electric core layer 5 is detachably fixed between the two sliding plates 4, so that the electric core layer 5 (comprising the buffer layer 6 fixed on the electric core layer 5) can be replaced conveniently. When pressure needs to be applied to the surface of the battery 1 and the flatness of the surface of the battery is improved, the driving piece 3 is started to push the sliding plates 4, so that the sliding plates 4 tightly press the battery 1, and the pressure on the surface of the battery 1 is uniform through the buffer layer 6.

When the surface of the battery 1 is pressed to improve the flatness of the surface of the battery, the battery at this time belongs to a semi-finished product, and the upper end of the battery is provided with an air bag, as shown in fig. 1, a part of the battery 1 higher than the sliding plate 4 is the air bag, and the whole battery 1 is arranged between the V-shaped cell layers, namely between the sliding plates 4, and the whole surface of the battery 1 can be pressed.

In one embodiment, the buffer layer 6 has a maximum elastic deformation of more than 30% and a density of less than 1g/cm³The elastic buffer layer of (2). Adopt the elastic buffer layer, after applying external force through driving piece 3 and ending, the internal stress can let the elastic buffer layer resume to the original state to the elastic buffer layer that guarantees to start driving piece 3 during operation next time and previous has the uniformity. The elastic buffer layer can be a sponge buffer layer, an EPE (polyethylene foam) buffer layer, or the like.

The flat plate stress structure has the advantages that pressure is applied to the plane of a flat plate object, the flat plate object is required to be evenly stressed on the stress object testing surface, all pressure intensity on a unit area is kept consistent, the existing flat plate stress structure is in the process of converting point stress into surface stress, due to actual production processing errors, the flat plate is difficult to achieve absolute flatness, when the acting force is transmitted on the surface of the flat plate, the high point between the stress surfaces is generally transmitted to the object to be tested, and the low point on the surface of the object to be tested cannot be stressed.

As shown in fig. 5, the sliding plate 4 is not an ideal rigid body with a flat surface due to the processing precision, the microscopic surface is uneven, the point B is a low point, and the point C is a high point, so that the pressure per unit area of each surface of the battery is not uniform during the production process of the battery, the performance per unit area of the battery is inconsistent, the quality of the produced battery is reduced, and even a defective product is generated. The buffer layer 6 of the application adopts the structure that the maximum elastic deformation is more than 30 percent and the density is less than 1g/cm³The elastic buffer layer has enough creeping space (the arrow in the horizontal direction of figure 5 is the creeping direction, the vertical arrow is the force transmission diagram) inside the buffer layer 6 due to low density, therefore, when the high point of the sliding plate 4 is stressed greatly, the elastic buffer layer can creep to the part with smaller pressure, the low point of the plane of the sliding plate 4 is better filled, the stress of the high point is equal to that of the low point, and the purpose of transmitting the pressure from the sliding plate 4 to the surface of the battery uniformly is achieved. Pressure is applied to both surfaces of the actual processed cell, and fig. 5 illustrates one of the surfaces being subjected to force.

At present, the buffer layer 6 is made of silica gel materials mostly, and although the silica gel materials also have certain elastic deformation, the silica gel materials cannot well fill the low points when the silica gel materials are stressed to creep from the high points to the low points, so that the stress of the high points and the stress of the low points still have partial difference.

The buffer layer 6 is made of silica gel material, the maximum elastic deformation of the buffer layer is more than 30 percent, and the density of the buffer layer is less than 1g/cm³The elastic buffer layer has obvious effect difference in battery production.

The tests are now as follows: the pressure-sensitive paper is placed between the battery 1 and the buffer layer 6, the driving piece is started to press, and when the pressure reaches a certain value, the paper surface becomes dark. When the buffer layer 6 is made of a silica gel material, the stress of a high point is large, the color change value of the pressure sensitive paper is achieved, the high point becomes dark, the stress of a low point is small, the color change value of the pressure sensitive paper is not achieved, the color change of the position is not achieved, and the color change of the whole plate is not uniform, as shown in fig. 6, the diagram is only one of the conditions, and the condition is represented as diversity and is not unique. When the cushion layer 6 is an elastic cushion layer of the present application, the pressure sensitive paper becomes almost entirely dark, as shown in fig. 7, indicating uniform pressure transmission. Therefore, the buffer layer 6 of the present application can improve the production quality of the battery.

In one embodiment, the force application plate 2 is disposed between the sliding plate 4 and the first fixing plate 81, the force application plate 2 is fixedly connected to the sliding plate 4 (i.e., the rightmost sliding plate 4 shown in fig. 1) on the side close to the driving member 3, the force application plate 2 can slide axially along the guide shaft 9, and the connecting rod of the driving member 3 passes through the through hole and is fixedly connected to the force application plate 2.

If the connecting rod is directly and fixedly connected with the sliding plate 4, structures such as grooves or holes need to be formed on the sliding plate 4, the surface flatness of the sliding plate 4 is damaged, and therefore the uniform transmission of force is influenced. Set up application of force board 2, the connecting rod passes through application of force board 2 to the 4 transmission power of sliding plate, and the even uniformity of 4 surface force transmission of better assurance sliding plate improves the degree of consistency that 1 surface of battery applyed the pressure, guarantees that the battery is inside to be evenly flattened, discharges the gas side by side, improves the production quality of battery.

Fixing base 7 and recess can be dismantled the V type electricity core layer with the fixed form of bolt and fix between sliding plate 4, when V type electricity core layer was dismantled to needs, extract fixing base 7, can dismantle V type electricity core layer. As shown in fig. 3, a row of grooves may be provided on the top of the sliding plate 4, which increases the flexibility of use of the sliding plate 4, and when batteries of different sizes need to be processed, the sliding plate 4 does not need to be replaced because of improper groove positions. And the edges of two sides of the top of the V-shaped electric core layer are respectively provided with a row of corresponding holes, so that the application flexibility of the V-shaped electric core layer is improved.

In one embodiment, the cell layer 5 is a V-shaped cell layer arranged periodically. When the number of the periodically arranged cell layers is two, the two V-shaped cell layers are similar to W-shaped cell layers. The structural advantage of the periodically arranged V-shaped electric core layer is illustrated by taking a W-shaped electric core layer as an example. As shown in fig. 3, two side edges of the V-shaped cell layer are fixed on the sliding plates 4, and when the cell layer needs to be detached or replaced, the V-shaped cell layer has a problem of falling between the two sliding plates 4. If the W-shaped cell layer is adopted, at least one part of the W-shaped cell layer is hung on the sliding plates 4 when the W-shaped cell layer is disassembled or replaced, so that the problem that the W-shaped cell layer falls between the two sliding plates 4 is solved. And the V-shaped cell layers arranged periodically are easy to continuously process and have low cost. Elastic buffer layer repeatedly usable if fix on arbitrary side of W type electric core layer, when needs are dismantled or are installed, can one step target in place, all fix elastic buffer layer and W type electric core layer on pressure device simultaneously, need not fix elastic buffer layer and W type electric core layer respectively, more need not fix V type electric core layer respectively, and it is more convenient to operate. For the V-shaped electric core layers arranged periodically, the top edges of the two ends of the electric core layer 5 are fixed at the top of the sliding plate 4, and the rest top electric core layer parts are abutted against the top of the sliding plate 4, so that the structure is simplified, and the cost is reduced.
