Embodiment
Below, embodiments of the present invention are described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
Fig. 1 is the schematic diagram of the operation of the manufacture lead acid accumulator electrode group illustrated according to the embodiment of the present invention.The lead acid accumulator electrode group used in the present embodiment is the conventional electrode group (see Fig. 6) used, and makes as follows.
The making > of < electrode
Positive electrode and negative electrode have the active material remained on grid substrate.Grid substrate can be cast sheet gate substrate or draw in the net grid substrate.
Grid substrate comprises the lead as main component, and can comprise the tin, calcium, antimony etc. of interpolation.Especially, grid substrate preferably comprises calcium and the tin of interpolation.Add calcium and can reduce self-discharge rate.In addition, the possibility of contingent electrode corrosion when tin can suppress to add calcium is added.
The pasty state active material easily coating above-mentioned grid substrate can be used.The composition of pasty state active material is not particularly limited.Pasty state active material is made by mixing lead powder, water, sulfuric acid etc. containing lead monoxide (according to the characteristic of positive electrode and negative electrode, also adding the additives such as cutting fibre, carbon dust, lignin, barium sulfate and red lead once in a while).If grid is buried by amount completely that coat the pasty state active material of grid substrate, is enough.Preferably, being coated with pasty state active material makes its thickness reach the frame thickness or thicker at the most external place of grid.
By aging for such positive and negative electrode and dry, to make inchoate electrode.
The making > of < electrode group
Above-mentioned positive electrode and negative electrode is used to make electrode group (see Fig. 6).That is, the dividing plate 2 three positive electrodes 1 and four negative electrodes 3 made via glass fibre is alternately stacking, to make electrode group (ST1).Solder flux is coated positive electrode ear 4 and negative electrode ear 5 (ST2).In the present embodiment, replace the conventional liquid flux used, use pasty state solder flux to omit drying process (ST2).
The making > of < motlten metal
Fig. 2 is the partial sectional view of a part for the device used in the operation of the manufacture lead acid accumulator electrode group illustrated according to the embodiment of the present invention.
As shown in Figures 1 and 2, in the manufacturing process of lead acid accumulator according to the present embodiment by electrode group, heating station 6 is set in a first step, melting plant 8 is set in the second step, in third step, use mold 10, and conveying arrangement (not shown) is set.
First, in a first step, the first conveying arrangement will be transported to heating station 6 without preliminarily heated lead 7, and then lead 7 is tentatively heated to unfused predetermined temperature (see ST3, ST4 and Fig. 2 A).In the present embodiment, the pure lead containing inevitable impurity or lead alloy (terne metal etc.) can be used as above-mentioned lead.In the second step, the second conveying arrangement by tentatively heating after lead 7 be transported to melting plant 8, then lead 7 is heated to make lead be fused into the temperature (see ST5 and Fig. 2 B) of motlten metal 9 by melting plant 8.
The conveying arrangement that first conveying arrangement and the second conveying arrangement can be same conveying arrangement or separate.If use same conveying arrangement, then this conveying arrangement by tentatively heating after lead 7 be transported to melting plant 8 after, in melting plant 8, prepare motlten metal while, start the operation by being transported to heating station 6 without preliminarily heated lead 7.If use conveying arrangement separately, the operations linkage lead 7 after tentatively heating being transported to melting plant 8 then by performing with the second conveying arrangement, heating station 6 will be transported to without preliminarily heated lead 7 by the first conveying arrangement, the preliminary heating of lead 7 and the preparation of motlten metal can be performed concurrently.
Therefore, two benches heating is adopted.These two stages implement respectively in first step and second step.With heat the conventional method of lead in a same containers compared with, by performing first step to shorten the time of motlten metal preparation section during execution second step.This is because, although specific lead is melted and the total time reached needed for predetermined temperature almost identical in method of the present invention with conventional method, according to the present invention, the preliminary heating of lead and the preparation of motlten metal can be performed concurrently.Therefore, as bottleneck of the prior art motlten metal preparation section needed for time can relatively be shortened.In the present embodiment, the pitch time manufacturing the operation of lead acid accumulator electrode group can foreshorten to about 1/4th of prior art.
In addition, in the present embodiment, the lead 7 will melted by melting plant 8 is heated in advance at heating station 6.Therefore, with the lead under ambient temperature is introduced melting plant according to compared with the method for prior art, the temperature difference between the temperature that can reduce melting plant 8 and the temperature of the lead 7 being introduced into melting plant 8.Thus, can avoid, when new lead 7 is introduced into melting plant 8, occurring the sharply decline of temperature in the part of the melting plant 8 contacted with lead 7.Therefore, it is possible to suppress the thermal shock (and alleviating the local contraction of the melting plant 8 caused) putting on melting plant 8, this can prevent the damage to melting plant 8.
In the present embodiment, particularly, the articulated robot being configured to serve as the first conveying arrangement and the second conveying arrangement can be used, and two pawl air spiders can be used as end effector.
First, the lead 7 being positioned over lead inventory locations (not shown) is captured by two pawl air spiders, and is transported to the heating station 6 shown in Fig. 2 A.Lead has been processed to the cuboid that volume that volume is substantially equal to the die cavity portion 11 of mold 10 deducts the volume of the electrode group ear in the motlten metal immersed in die cavity portion 11.
Then, the lead 7 being heated to predetermined temperature at heating station 6 is captured by above-mentioned two pawl air spiders, and is transported to the melting plant 8 shown in Fig. 2 B.Afterwards, prepare motlten metal in melting plant 8 while, two pawl air spiders move to lead inventory locations and capture without preliminarily heated lead, and lead is transported to heating station 6.Now, lead 7 is arranged in both heating station 6 and melting plant 8, heats concurrently.
In the present embodiment, heating station 6 and melting plant 8 are provided with and are configured to adjustment heating-up temperature and the controller of heating time.Particularly, heating station 6 and melting plant 8 can comprise the timer (not shown) being configured to adjust heating time, and heating station 6 and melting plant 8 can comprise embedding inside to adjust the heater (not shown) of temperature.
In this case, even if ambient temperature and pipeline speed change, also can realize predetermined preliminary heating-up temperature and predetermined molten metal temperature with timer and heater, thus guarantee high welding quality.
In addition, because the surface of motlten metal is easily oxidized, and if oxidizing slag is mixed into the weld interface then welding quality reduction between ear and bus-bar, so by adjusting the time of preparing motlten metal according to the pitch time of fusing and subsequent handling, can suppress the generation of oxidizing slag.In addition, the viscosity of motlten metal can be adjusted by the temperature adjusting motlten metal.Therefore, even if there is the difformity in the shape of multiple bus-bar or the die cavity portion 11 of mold 10, the flowing of motlten metal also can be adjusted by the viscosity adjusting motlten metal.This prevents from forming the faults such as pore in bus-bar, thus can obtain good casting.
In order to support the fluctuation of lead composition, the seasonal fluctuation of ambient temperature, the diversity of die cavity portion shape and depend on the fluctuation of line speed of front and back operation, heter temperature and timer value can be set to, the temperature of the lead after preliminary heating can be adjusted in the scope of 280 DEG C ~ 320 DEG C, and the temperature of motlten metal can adjust in the scope of 480 DEG C ~ 520 DEG C.In addition, adopt there is good thermal endurance, thermal shock resistance properties and the corrosion proof cast iron material as heating station 6 and melting plant 8.
The casting > of < bus-bar
In third step, the motlten metal prepared in second step is injected mold, the ear of same polarity electrode is immersed in the motlten metal in mold, motlten metal is cooled, and carries out the demoulding, to complete bus-bar (ST6 to ST8).Particularly, the motlten metal 9 melted by melting plant 8 by the melting plant 8 that tilts as shown in FIG. 2 C injects die cavity portion 11, casts bus-bar.Melting plant 8 is rotatably supported by support (not shown), and cylinder, hydraulic cylinder, stepping motor etc. can be used to tilt.In the present embodiment, melting plant 8 is arranged on the top in die cavity portion 11, and only carries out by the operation of tilting.But, if owing to manufacturing the installing space of lead acid accumulator with the device of electrode group or the reason of pipeline structure, melting plant 8 and die cavity portion 11 are separated from each other setting, then melting plant 8 can move to die cavity portion 11 and motlten metal 9 be injected die cavity portion 11 while maintenance motlten metal 9.
Next, make the electrode group turned upside down made in advance, ear's (being coated with pasty state solder flux) of same polarity is immersed in the motlten metal 9 in die cavity portion 11, motlten metal 9 is made to cool and solidify by the cooling device (not shown) embedded in mold 10, then the demoulding is carried out, to complete bus-bar.
The removal > of < residue
In above-mentioned bus-bar casting process, the bottom that motlten metal 9 and oxidizing slag thereof are easily attached to melting plant 8 becomes residue.If do not remove such residue and cast next bus-bar, then cast bus-bar, the formation gap, interface thus between the bus-bar completed and ear under the state be mixed in motlten metal 9 at residue.This allows electrolyte to rise to enter this gap and cause corrosion, the fault thus the bad connection that can cause between electrode group and bus-bar or bus-bar come off etc.In addition, depending on the mixed volume of residue and be mixed into position, can there is fluctuation in the extent of corrosion of bus-bar, and this is easy to make the quality of lead acid accumulator unstable.In the prior art, blow pressure-air to the inner surface of melting plant 8 and remove residue.But residue may be interspersed within the surrounding enviroment comprising electrode group manufacturing installation, thus inevitably makes ecological deterioration.So residue is spreadable makes lead acid accumulator short circuit to electrode group.
Therefore, in the present embodiment, removal device is set, after motlten metal 9 being injected mold 10 in third step, removes the residue remained in melting plant 8.In the present embodiment, use the scraper 12 shown in Fig. 3 as this removal device.Fig. 3 illustrates that scraper 12 strikes off the residue of motlten metal to remove the schematic cross sectional views of the state of this residue.Fig. 4 is the schematic diagram of a part (scraper 12 and scraper maintaining part 13) for the embodiments of the present invention arrived from the side.
As shown in Figure 3, in the present embodiment, after the die cavity portion 11 by inclination melting plant 8 motlten metal 9 prepared by melting plant 8 being injected mold 10, change the inclination of melting plant 8, make the surface that contacts with motlten metal 9 relative to the installed surface maintenance level of welder.Then, by drive unit (not shown) the terminal part of scraper 12 is pressed on the surface contacted with motlten metal, make scraper 12 along the surface contacted with motlten metal 9, in the horizontal direction relative to welder installed surface, or the left and right directions seen in side view swings, remove above-mentioned residue with scraping.In the present embodiment, be configured to drive the device of scraper 12 to comprise the scraper maintaining part 13 shown in Fig. 4, it is arranged on and utilizes two cylinder (not shown) on fore-and-aft direction and the moveable arm of above-below direction.Scraper maintaining part 13 is made up of the scraper 12 shown in the schematic side elevation of Fig. 4 and spring 14.In figure 3 strike off the operation of residue during, the contact that spring 14 adjustment puts on the scraper 12 of the bottom surface of melting plant 8 makes it excessively unlikely, thus prevents the bottom surface of scratch melting plant 8 or damage scraper 12.In addition, adjust the enlargement and contraction of spring to adjust the repulsion of spring 14 thus the contact of adjustment scraper 12 by screwing and loosening the screw being arranged on spring 14 top, suitably can adjust residue and remove state.Because scraper 12 is for the residue before scraping cooling, therefore the material of scraper can adopt and easily obtains and have the SUS 304 compared with high corrosion-resistant and thermal endurance.The part contacted with the bottom surface of melting plant 8 of scraper 12 is processed to leave scratch on melting plant 8.
In the present embodiment, the width of scraper 12 is set to be less than the width in the residue removal face of melting plant 8.Thus, after scraper 12 swings and strikes off residue, the side that scraper 12 is being orthogonal to swaying direction moves up, and again swings to remove the residue not yet struck off.In the present embodiment, with compared with the method for prior art, the residue of motlten metal and the residue of oxidizing slag can not disseminate.Therefore, the environmental energy around electrode group manufacturing installation accesses improvement, thus reduces the fault of lead acid accumulator in welding sequence.
Although specifically illustrate embodiments of the present invention above, but the present invention is not limited to such execution mode, and the size of the assembly recorded in this embodiment, material, shape, relative position etc. can make a change with when thought when not departing from the scope of the present invention.
Industrial usability
According to the present invention, by performing first step during execution second step, the heating time that melting plant prepares motlten metal can be shortened.Thus, the time formed needed for bus-bar can significantly be shortened.Therefore, the present invention is applicable to the method and apparatus manufacturing lead acid accumulator electrode group, and applies electrode group and the lead acid accumulator of the manufacture of this method and apparatus.
