It should be noted that, in the embodiment of the present disclosure, only one accommodating space is described for installing a battery, and the method for installing batteries in the remaining accommodating spaces is consistent therewith. The first beam 111 and the second beam 112 in the embodiment of the present disclosure refer to beams of the cell case 110 at both ends in the cell arrangement direction, respectively.
The following will describe in detail the steps of the method for assembling a battery provided by the embodiments of the present disclosure:
in step S110, M cells of the N cells may be placed in the accommodating space, so that the M cells are arranged along a direction from the first beam to the second beam, where N is greater than or equal to 2, and M is greater than or equal to 1 and less than N.
Wherein, N and M are positive integers, and the M batteries can be manually placed into the battery box 110, or can be placed into the battery box 110 through a clamp. The M batteries may be placed in the battery box 110 as a whole, or may be placed in the battery box 110 one by one.
The battery 120 in the embodiment of the present disclosure may be a rectangular parallelepiped battery, and the battery 120 includes two opposite first surfaces and four second surfaces surrounding the first surfaces, and the area of the first surfaces is larger than that of the second surfaces.
In a possible implementation manner of the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 2, the M batteries are integrally placed in the battery box 110, and at this time, the step S110 may be implemented as follows: when the M batteries are placed in the battery box 110 through the clamp, the remaining N-M batteries are not placed in the battery box 110, the M batteries are placed in the battery box 110 through the clamp as a whole, and the inside of the battery box 110 is provided with a space for the clamp to go in and out. M batteries are arranged in sequence to form a battery array, the clamp comprises a first clamping jaw and a second clamping jaw, the first clamping jaw and the second clamping jaw clamp two ends of the battery array respectively, and certain pretightening force is applied to the battery array. The first and second jaws release the battery after it is loaded into the battery box 110 and exit the battery box 110.
Wherein the first jaw is in contact with a first surface of the first battery and the second jaw is in contact with a first surface of the second battery. The first battery is a battery in the battery array near the first beam, and the second battery is a battery in the battery array near the second beam. When the M cells are arranged, the first surfaces of the adjacent two cells are opposite. When the M batteries are disposed in the battery box 110, the first surfaces of the batteries and the end surfaces of the first beams 111 close to the batteries are disposed in parallel.
In another possible implementation manner of the embodiment of the present disclosure, as shown in fig. 3, M batteries may be put in one by one, and step S110 may be implemented as follows: and putting a battery into the accommodating space every time until M batteries are all put into the accommodating space, wherein after putting a battery into the accommodating space, a first preset pressure is applied to the surface, far away from the first beam 111, of the battery, and when the battery is at a preset position under the first preset pressure, a second preset pressure is applied to the top surface of the battery, so that the battery is kept at the preset position, and the first preset pressure applied to the surface, far away from the first beam 111, of the battery is removed, wherein M is N-1.
When a first preset pressure is applied to the side of the battery box 110 away from the first beam 111 after a first battery is placed, the direction of the preset pressure is along the direction from the second beam 112 to the first beam 111, and the battery moves towards the direction close to the first beam 111 under the driving of the first preset pressure on the side away from the first beam 111, and finally reaches the preset position. When the battery reaches the preset position, a second preset pressure is applied to the top surface of the battery, at which the battery and the battery case 110 are maintained at the preset position.
For example, after the first battery is placed in the battery box 110, a first preset pressure is applied to a first surface of the first battery away from the first beam 111, the first battery abuts against the first beam 111 under the first preset pressure, and when the first battery is in the set position, a second preset pressure is applied to a top surface of the first battery and the first preset pressure is removed. Then, a second battery is placed in the battery box 110, a first preset pressure is applied to the first surface, away from the first beam 111, of the second battery, the second battery abuts against the first battery under the first preset pressure, when the second battery is located at a preset position, a second preset pressure is applied to the top surface of the second battery, the first preset pressure is removed, and the rest is conducted until the Mth battery is placed in the battery box 110. At this time, the first surfaces of the M cells are all parallel to the end surface of the first beam 111 near the cells.
Through putting into battery box 110 with M battery one by one, when every battery was put into battery box 110, compress tightly the battery one by one to first roof beam 111 direction with the battery through first pressure of predetermineeing, can guarantee to reserve sufficient space between M piece battery and second roof beam 112, the installation of the nth battery of being convenient for.
It is noted that the first preset pressure and the second preset pressure are used to distinguish different directions of force applied to the battery in the embodiment of the present disclosure. The first predetermined pressure applied to the different cells may be the same or different, and the second predetermined pressure applied to the different cells may be the same or different. And in the embodiments of the present disclosure, the preset positions are different for different batteries, that is, the target positions of the corresponding batteries represented by the preset positions are not the same, and do not mean that the target positions of all the batteries are the same.
It is understood that when M batteries are put into the battery box 110, a plurality of batteries may be put at a time, for example, two batteries are put at a time or three batteries are put at a time, and this is not particularly limited in the embodiments of the present disclosure. Preferably, the number of cells put in each time may be N-M.
The M batteries may be placed in the battery box 110 in multiple batches, and one group of batteries is placed in the battery box 110 in each batch until the batteries in multiple batches are placed in the battery box 100. After a group of batteries is placed in the battery box 110, a first preset pressure is applied to one surface of the group of batteries, which is far away from the first beam 111, so that the group of batteries is in a preset position, then a second preset pressure is applied to the top surface of the group of batteries, and the first pressure is removed, so that the group of batteries is kept in the preset position.
It should be noted that there are at least two batteries in a battery pack, and the number of batteries in different batches of battery packs may be the same or different.
For example, a push rod can be arranged on a battery boxing tool at a battery assembling station, the push rod can be arranged on the tool main body in a sliding mode, the push rod is connected with a driving device, and the driving device drives the push rod to provide first preset pressure for the battery.
The first surface of the battery and the end surface of the first beam 111 close to the battery in the embodiment of the present disclosure are parallel to each other, which means that the first surface of the battery and the end surface of the first beam 111 close to the battery are parallel to each other within a process tolerance. That is, when the acute angle formed by the first surface of the battery and the end surface of the first beam 111 close to the battery is smaller than the predetermined angle, the first surface of the battery and the end surface of the first beam 111 close to the battery are considered to be parallel. For example, the preset angle may be 0.5 degrees, 1 degree, 2 degrees, 3 degrees, or the like.
In step S120, a first preset pressure may be applied to a surface of the M-cell, which is far from the first beam 111, of the cells far from the first beam 111, so that the M-cell is in a preset position.
When the batteries are installed in the battery box 110, the front M batteries are small in assembly difficulty, and the rest N-M batteries are small in assembly space and large in installation difficulty. Applying a first preset pressure to the surface of the cell far from the first beam 111, among the M cells, far from the first beam 111 can push the M cells to move towards the direction close to the first beam 111, so that the space between the mth cell and the second beam 112 can be increased, and the remaining N-M cells can be conveniently installed.
In a possible embodiment of the present disclosure, the M batteries are integrally loaded in the battery box 110, and in this case, a first preset pressure may be applied to the M batteries integrally, which are away from the first beam 111, among the M batteries, and the M batteries are integrally compressed by the surface of the M batteries away from the first beam 111.
In another possible embodiment of the present disclosure, M batteries are individually loaded into the battery box 110, and at this time, the first M-1 batteries are already compressed by a first preset pressure when being loaded into the battery box 110 and are positioned by a corresponding second preset pressure.

Applying a first preset pressure to the faces of the cells far from the first beam 111, among the M cells, far from the first beam 111, so that the cells far from the first beam 111 among the M cells are in the preset position may be achieved by: a first preset pressure is applied to a first surface, away from the first beam 111, of the cells, away from the first beam 111, of the M cells, so that the cells, away from the first beam 111, of the M cells are in a preset position.
In step S130, a second preset pressure may be applied to at least the top surfaces of the cells far from the first beam among the M cells, and the first preset pressure may be removed to maintain the M cells at preset positions.
Wherein, a first preset pressure is applied to the surface, far away from the first beam 111, of the cells far away from the first beam 111, and the M cells are in a compressed state. When the first preset pressure is removed, the M batteries move toward the second beam 112, thereby causing the installation space of the remaining N-M batteries to be reduced. By applying a second preset pressure to the top surface of the cells away from the first beam 111, at least among the M cells, the M cells can be restrained.
The second preset pressure may be applied to at least the top surface of the cell, which is far from the first beam, among the M cells, meaning that the second preset pressure may be applied by applying the second preset pressure to the top surface of the mth cell from near the first beam, or may be applied to the top surface of a plurality of cells including the mth cell from near the first beam.
In a possible embodiment of the present disclosure, the M batteries are integrally placed in the battery box 110, and at this time, a second preset pressure may be applied to the top surface of the mth battery, and the M batteries are limited at preset positions by the second preset pressure.
In another possible embodiment of the present disclosure, M batteries may be individually loaded into the battery box 110, and the first M-1 batteries are already compressed by a first preset pressure when being loaded into the battery box 110 and are positioned by a corresponding second preset pressure. Only the second preset pressure needs to be applied to the mth cell and the first pressure is removed in step S130.
In step S140, the remaining N-M batteries of the N batteries may be placed between the second beam and the battery far from the first beam among the M batteries, and the second preset pressure may be removed.
Wherein the remaining N-M batteries are loaded into the battery box 110, and the first surfaces of the remaining N-M batteries are respectively opposite to the first surface of the mth battery and the second beam 112. After the remaining N-M batteries are loaded into the battery box 110, the second predetermined pressure is removed, the M batteries are released and move in a direction close to the second beam 112, and the remaining N-M batteries are clamped.
When the M batteries are integrally placed in the battery case 110, a second predetermined pressure is applied to the top surface of the mth battery. At this time, the removing of the second preset pressure includes: the second predetermined pressure applied to the top surface of the mth cell is removed.
When the M batteries are placed into the battery box 110 one by one, the top surfaces of the M batteries are all applied with a second preset pressure. At this time, the removing of the second preset pressure includes: the preset pressure applied to the top surface of each of the M cells is removed.
