Battery test fixture

Technical Field

Background

In recent years, portable electronic products, new energy automobiles, smart grids, distributed energy storage, internet of things and the like rapidly develop, and higher requirements are continuously put forward on various performances of lithium ion batteries, wherein the improvement of the energy density of the batteries is urgent. Therefore, the development of lithium ion batteries with high energy density, high safety and long cycle life is a research hotspot in the energy storage field today.

In the formation process of the lithium ion battery, a large amount of active lithium is consumed by the formation of the negative electrode SEI film, so that the first week coulombic efficiency and the battery capacity of the battery are low. Supplementing active lithium is an effective means to solve this problem. The significance of lithium supplement is as follows: the first week reversible capacity of the battery is increased, and the actual battery energy density is increased; the pre-expansion of the volume of the anode material is realized, the cracking and polarization of material particles in the lithium intercalation process are reduced, and the mechanical stability and the circularity of the anode are improved; some lithium supplementing techniques can form artificial SEI films, and thus can replace the formation steps of batteries and the like.

In recent years, researchers have developed various methods of lithium supplementation including in situ doping of pre-lithium, contact pre-lithium, electrochemical pre-lithium, chemical pre-lithium, and other pre-lithium approaches. Among them, the electrochemical prelithiation method is the most direct method for solving the problem of low ICE of lithium ion negative electrode material, and is also the most promising way for realizing commercialization.

At present, in the electrochemical pre-lithium process, in the experimental exploration stage, the pre-lithium process is basically performed on the battery cells with different specifications and models, and no lithium-supplementing product is developed in the market basically. In the pre-lithium test of the battery cells with multiple specifications, a large number of clamps with different specifications are needed, and the clamps are more and are troublesome to assemble and disassemble. Therefore, a fixture which can adapt to different specifications of battery cells and help the pre-lithium battery cells to perform data test is needed.
