Description

The lithium battery has the advantages of high single output voltage, long cycle life, large specific energy, small volume, low self-discharge, no memory effect, no pollution, wide working temperature range and the like, and is widely applied to various fields of electronic instruments, digital products, household electrical appliances, electric vehicles and the like.
In the prior art, a constant-current-constant-voltage charging mode is generally adopted in a battery core charging process of a lithium battery, when the battery core is subjected to constant-current charging to a certain fixed voltage, the voltage at the moment is not the real voltage of the battery, if voltage limitation is not carried out, the voltage of the battery core can continuously rise to cause internal polarization and even destroy the battery structure, and if the fixed voltage is just reached, the battery core is not fully charged. In order to further fully charge the battery without damaging the cell, the charging is continued in a constant voltage mode. Along with the increase of the charging amount, the actual voltage of the battery cell is closer to the set voltage, and at this time, in order to maintain the voltage constant, the current value is gradually reduced until the charging is cut off when the set minimum current is reached, that is, the battery cell is considered to be fully charged at this time. If the off current is not set for the constant voltage charging, it is theoretically possible to stop the charging when the current is as small as 0mA, but the time required for this is considerably long, and in view of the problem of charging efficiency, the conventional charging standard stipulates that the constant voltage charging is stopped when the current is reduced to 0.05C.
Because the current is 0.05C when the constant voltage charging is stopped, the polarization of the battery cell can cause the voltage of the battery cell to still have a larger reduction space, the consistency of the voltage of the battery cell is poorer, and the yield of the battery cell during capacity grading is lower.

Detailed Description
The present invention will be described in further detail with reference to the accompanying drawings and examples. It is to be understood that the specific embodiments described herein are merely illustrative of the invention and are not limiting of the invention. It should be further noted that, for the convenience of description, only some of the structures related to the present invention are shown in the drawings, not all of the structures.
The terminology used in the embodiments of the invention is for the purpose of describing particular embodiments only and is not intended to be limiting of the invention. It should be noted that the terms "upper", "lower", "left", "right", and the like used in the description of the embodiments of the present invention are used in the angle shown in the drawings, and should not be construed as limiting the embodiments of the present invention. In addition, in this context, it is also to be understood that when an element is referred to as being "on" or "under" another element, it can be directly formed on "or" under "the other element or be indirectly formed on" or "under" the other element through an intermediate element. The terms "first," "second," and the like, are used for descriptive purposes only and not for purposes of limitation, and do not denote any order, quantity, or importance, but rather are used to distinguish one element from another. The specific meanings of the above terms in the present invention can be understood by those skilled in the art according to specific situations.
Fig. 1 is a schematic diagram illustrating a cross-flow-constant voltage charging curve of a lithium battery in the prior art, referring to fig. 1, before starting charging, a battery voltage is first detected, and if the battery voltage is lower than a threshold voltage (about 2.5V), the battery is precharged with a small current of 0.1C, so that the battery voltage slowly rises; when the voltage of the battery reaches the threshold voltage, the constant-current charging is carried out, the battery is rapidly charged at the stage with higher current (0.5C-1C) intensity, the voltage of the battery rises faster, and the capacity of the battery reaches about 85% of the rated value of the battery; after the battery voltage rises to the upper limit voltage (4.2V), the circuit is switched to a constant voltage charging mode, the battery voltage is basically maintained at 4.2V, the charging current is gradually reduced, the charging speed is slowed, the stage mainly ensures that the battery is fully charged, and when the charging current drops to 0.05C, the battery is judged to be fully charged. Wherein C represents the charge and discharge multiplying power of the battery, and the charge and discharge multiplying power is charge and discharge current/rated capacity; for example: when 20A for a battery having a rated capacity of 100 A.h was discharged, the discharge rate was 0.2C.
Because the current is 0.05C when the constant voltage charging stops in the existing constant current-constant voltage charging mode, the cell voltage still has a space for reduction, the cell voltage grades charged by the constant current-constant voltage in the industry at present are generally two, the grade range difference is about 10mV, and the range is larger; and the time from the capacity grading of the battery cell to the first test voltage is 24-48 hours, then the polarization of the battery cell is basically stable, the polarization phenomenon of the battery cell is serious due to the existing charging mode, the voltage consistency among different battery cells is poor, and the production efficiency needs to be improved.

In one embodiment, the initial value of the third charging current may be set to 0.05C, and the cutoff current may be set to 0.01C, and compared with the prior art, if the cutoff current is set to 0.01C by using a conventional constant current-constant voltage charging method, although the polarization of the battery cell may be reduced, the charging time may be prolonged, and the utilization rate of the charging device may be reduced.
The charging method provided by the embodiment can perform charging by using two constant current charging and one constant voltage charging modes without affecting the production efficiency, the cut-off current after charging is less than 0.05C in the prior art, the polarization in the battery cell can be reduced, the voltage consistency during the capacity grading of the battery is improved, and the voltage is ensured to be within a grade; the preset time is stopped between two times of constant current charging, so that the voltage of the battery cell is recharged after being reduced to be stable, the self-discharge value of the voltage after the battery cell is fully charged can be reduced, a bad battery can be better picked out, and the inspection accuracy is improved; the charging mode can also save the aging time of the battery and effectively reduce the production period, thereby reducing the operation cost and improving the production efficiency; according to the process, the voltage grade range of the battery cell is continuously reduced, so that the battery cell with a grade closer to that of the battery cell can be selected for matching and assembling the battery, the matching efficiency is improved, the influence of the voltage in matching is reduced, and the service life of the battery is prolonged; because the polarization inside the battery core is reduced, the time from the capacity grading of the battery to the first voltage testing can be shortened.
