In one embodiment of the present invention, as shown in fig. 1 and 3, a thermal cutting mechanism for disassembling a scrapped power lithium battery cell is used for disassembling a scrapped lithium battery cell, and includes a box body 10, a support assembly 20, an upper thermal cutting assembly 30, and a lower thermal cutting assembly 40.
Wherein, supporting component 20 installs in on the box 10, it is used for placing lithium cell electric core, and at the whole disassembly in-process of scrapping the lithium cell of carrying out, accessible manual work or mechanical equipment or manipulator's mode snatchs scrapped lithium cell electric core and places on supporting component 20, and the subsequent hot cutting process of going up hot cutting component 30, finishing the plastic-aluminum packaging film of hot cutting component 40 down of being convenient for, supporting component 20 is including fixing first slide rail 21 and second slide rail 22 on the box 10, first slide rail 21 with all install brace table 26 on the second slide rail 22, and is concrete, scrapped lithium cell electric core places on brace table 26, goes up hot cutting component 30, down hot cutting component 40 and installs respectively in the upper and lower below of brace table 26 for the packaging film to placing the lithium cell on brace table 26 cuts off.
As shown in fig. 6, it installs to go up hot-cutting assembly 30 supporting component 20 top, and it is used for cutting off the plastic-aluminum packaging film of lithium cell electricity core, it is including fixing to go up hot-cutting assembly 30 bracing piece 31 on the box 10, connect first drive actuating cylinder 32 and connection on the bracing piece 31 first drive last hot cutter 34 of actuating cylinder 32 output, go up hot cutter 34 and move down under the drive of first drive actuating cylinder 32 and cut off the plastic-aluminum packaging film of lithium cell electricity core, bracing piece 31 specifically is L type structure, plays the effect of supporting all the other parts in the hot-cutting assembly 30 of going up, sets up a plurality of sprags and triangular supports in bracing piece 31 bottom to strengthen the structural stability of bracing piece 31, be used for the drive through first drive actuating cylinder 32 go up hot cutter 34 and move towards or keep away from the upper surface of brace table 26, understandably, first drive actuating cylinder 32 drives hot cutter 34 and moves towards the upper surface of placing the lithium cell electricity core on brace table 26 And finishing the hot cutting process until the upper hot cutter 34 is contacted with the aluminum plastic packaging film on the lithium battery cell.
Specifically, the internal structure of the upper hot cutter 34 is specifically as follows: the cutting knife comprises a cutting knife body and a heating element arranged in the cutting knife body, wherein the heating element can be a resistor disc or an electric heating wire, and the heating element is heated by current, so that the temperature of an upper hot cutting knife 34 is increased, meanwhile, in the actual processing process, the heating temperature range of the upper hot cutting knife 34 is 0-1000 ℃, the heating time is 5-6 s, the temperature for cutting off the aluminum-plastic packaging film is 300-500 ℃, the temperature is preferably 400 ℃, when different scrapped lithium battery cores are disassembled, the materials of the packaging films coated on the periphery of the packaging films are possibly different, and the hot cutting process of the packaging films in the lithium battery cores of different types can be completed by changing the temperature of the upper hot cutting knife 34.
Go up hot cutter 34's both sides and install blow gun 38, blow gun 38's output orientation go up hot cutter 34's bottom, blow gun 38 is used for separating the aluminium-plastic packaging film after cutting off, wherein blow gun 38 has input and output, the input is the gas transmission end of blow gun 38, and the gas transmission equipment (such as air pump etc.) can be connected to blow end of blow gun 38, input high-pressure gas to blow gun 38 through gas transmission equipment, blow gun 38 blows the position department that hot cutter 34 cut off the aluminium-plastic packaging film with high-pressure gas, avoid adhesion to positive and negative pole piece under the temperature effect of last hot cutter 34, it is worth mentioning that, in this embodiment, only set up blow gun 38 in last hot cutting assembly 30, and not set up blow gun 38 in hot cutting assembly 40 down, its reason is as follows: firstly, the aluminum-plastic packaging film is not directly adhered to the periphery of the lithium battery cell but wraps the periphery of the lithium battery cell, after the upper hot cutting assembly 30 cuts off the aluminum-plastic packaging film on the upper surface of the lithium battery cell, high-pressure gas is output through the blowing nozzle 38, because the aluminum-plastic packaging film is only contacted with the positive and negative pole pieces but not adhered, and meanwhile, the aluminum-plastic packaging film is a whole, after the aluminum-plastic packaging film on the upper surface of the lithium battery cell is cut off, the disassembled lithium battery cell is taken out, the aluminum-plastic packaging film can automatically fall off from the lithium battery cell, and the blowing nozzle 38 does not need to be arranged in the lower hot cutting assembly 40; then, because lithium cell electricity core places on brace table 26, the plastic-aluminum packaging film that is located lithium cell electricity core lower surface is under lithium cell electricity core's gravity, compress tightly on brace table 26, the back is cut off to the plastic-aluminum packaging film of lithium cell electricity core lower surface to hot cutting assembly 40 at present, if the meaning of blowing is not big to the cutting position to reuse blow nozzle 38, take out the lithium cell electricity core that the disassembling was finished, the plastic-aluminum packaging film still can drop from lithium cell electricity core, therefore it is unnecessary to increase blow nozzle 38 in hot cutting assembly 40 down, also can cause certain energy waste simultaneously.
