The welding plummer 20 cooperates with the first conveyer belt 40 to accomplish the feeding and discharging of the battery piece and the welding strip, and the concrete process is as follows:
the lifting driving member of each welding plummer 20 drives the corresponding arc bearing portion 21 to descend, so that the first conveyor belt 40 floats out of the conveyor belt avoiding groove 22.
After the battery pieces and the welding tapes are laid on the first conveying belt 40, the first conveying belt 40 is controlled to convey towards the welding station, and finally, each battery piece reaches the upper part of the corresponding welding bearing platform 20.
The lifting driving member of each welding plummer 20 drives the corresponding arc bearing portion 21 to rise to a high position, so that the first conveying belt 40 sinks into the conveying belt avoiding groove 22, and the battery pieces and the welding belts on the first conveying belt 40 fall onto the corresponding arc bearing portion 21 of the welding plummer 20.
Therefore, automatic feeding of the battery piece and the welding strip is completed.
After the welding of the battery pieces is completed to form the string, the lifting driving pieces of the welding bearing tables 20 drive the corresponding arc bearing parts 21 to descend to the low position, so that the first conveying belt 40 floats out of the conveying belt avoiding groove 22, and the battery string is jacked and borne on the first conveying belt 40.

In particular, the elastic pressing force of the first needle pressing assemblies positioned in the two side areas is larger than that of the first needle pressing assembly positioned in the middle area.
By arranging the pressing and positioning mechanism 30 in this way, when the pressing and positioning mechanism 30 is pressed on the battery piece, on one hand, it can be ensured that all the solder strips stacked on the battery piece by the pressing and positioning mechanism 30 are correspondingly pressed on the battery piece. On the other hand, since the compression pressure of the two side regions of the battery piece is greater than that of the middle region, the battery piece can more easily realize the downward bending of the two sides.

And finally, welding the welding strip on the back of the battery piece by a welding mechanism.
Therefore, each battery piece in the welded battery string deviates from the welding strip by a certain radian and is bent upwards.
And after the battery string is blanked from the welding station, the welding strip is cooled and contracted, and in the process, the welding strip pulls the battery pieces downwards, so that all the battery pieces are completely or basically restored to the original flat state.
Optionally, in this embodiment, a solder strip accommodating groove 25 extending along the first horizontal direction and penetrating through the arc-shaped bearing portion 21 is formed on the arc-shaped bearing portion 21 of each solder bearing platform 20, and the solder strip is laid in the solder strip accommodating groove 25. Through setting up the welding strip storage tank 25, realized the location to welding the area, prevent to weld the area and slide, guarantee to weld the area all with the battery piece on correspond the main grid line and align, promoted the welding effect.
Optionally, the lower side of the welding strip accommodating groove 25 is provided with a jacking hole communicated with the welding strip accommodating groove 25, and the jacking hole is internally provided with a thimble 27. In the process of welding the strip, the thimble 27 jacks up the welding strip in the welding strip accommodating groove, so as to ensure that the welding strip can be pressed on the battery piece, and further improve the welding effect.
