Description

  The present invention relates to a liquid injection device for containing a carrier substance in a bag-shaped battery container made of a heat-fusible sheet, and injecting an electrolyte into the carrier substance storage chamber, and to produce a battery using this liquid injection device The present invention relates to a battery manufacturing method.

  With the recent expansion of so-called IT (information technology), most applicable devices are required to be small and light. For this reason, the secondary battery as a power source for the device must naturally be light, thin, and small. After going through various trials and errors as battery manufacturing, for example, it came to the idea that it would be possible to divert the technology for vacuum packing food with a film often used in the food processing industry to battery manufacturing.

  In this case, it is appropriate to use, for example, an aluminum laminate film, which is a heat-fusible sheet, as the outer casing of the battery container. The film is formed in a horizontally long rectangular shape, a fold line is formed in the center in the width direction, and a protrusion is formed by pressing in either the left or right and the lower half.

  The projecting portion accommodates a carrier material which is a flat and porous electrode coil, and is bent along the fold line so as to be face-to-face, and the one side portion and the lower side portion are heated and fused to form a bag. A shaped battery container is formed. The upper side becomes the opening of the battery container, and after injecting the electrolyte from this to impregnate the carrier material in the carrier material storage chamber, the opening is sealed to complete a predetermined process in battery production. .

  By the way, in order to ensure production volume and reliability, it is necessary to ensure that a predetermined amount of electrolyte is injected into the battery container and that the injected electrolyte is impregnated in the carrier material in a short time. .

In [Patent Document 1], the one in which the opening on the front end side of the exterior film body which is a battery container is processed into a funnel shape is used so that the injection nozzle can be easily inserted. That is, it is not necessary to attach and detach the injection funnel separately. Alternatively, as another prior art, the opening amount of the battery container opening is enlarged by bringing the suction pad into contact with the sheet surface near the battery container opening from both sides and retracting while sucking. Therefore, it becomes easy to insert the liquid injection nozzle into the opening.
JP 2001-15099 A

  However, the battery container has a protruding carrier substance storage chamber on one side and a flat surface on the other side, so that the sealing surfaces along the edge of the carrier substance storage chamber are in close contact with each other and almost no gaps are formed. There is no.

Of course, since there is almost no gap at the upper edge of the carrier substance storage chamber, the injected electrolyte does not pass easily. Immediately injecting the electrolyte, the amount exceeding the upper edge of the storage chamber will be injected, and the electrolyte may overflow from the opening or splash outside the battery container, resulting in a shortage of liquid. End up.
Even when the electrolyte is injected into the electrolyte storage chamber, bubbles such as air and gas contained in the porous carrier material are difficult to escape, and it takes a long time to impregnate the electrolyte, resulting in poor productivity. . If the opening is sealed with air bubbles remaining, the battery performance is naturally adversely affected.

  The present invention has been made in order to solve the above-described problems, and the object of the present invention is to inject the electrolytic solution into the battery container efficiently and in a short time without overflowing the electrolytic solution, and An object of the present invention is to provide a liquid injection device and a battery manufacturing method capable of defoaming air or the like and impregnating a carrier material with an electrolytic solution to obtain stable and reliable battery performance.

In order to satisfy the above object, the present invention comprises a heat-fusible sheet, which is provided with a carrier substance containing chamber that protrudes on one side and contains a carrier substance, and is electrolyzed in a bag-like battery container having an opening at the edge.

Injection means for injecting,
The enlarging means is a first suction that faces the both sides of the heat-fusible sheet at the center in the width direction of the opening of the battery container and sucks the sheet to forcibly open the space in the center of the width of the opening. The pad and the second adsorption pad are opposed to the edge near the opening of the carrier substance storage chamber through the sheet and the sheet is adsorbed to forcibly open the edge part near the opening of the carrier substance storage chamber. A third suction pad was provided.

  In order to satisfy the above object, the battery manufacturing method of the present invention includes a supplying step of supplying a bag-shaped battery container having a carrier material containing chamber made of a heat-fusible sheet and containing a carrier material, and having an opening. A first expansion step for forcibly opening the battery container supplied in the supply step, using the expansion means, at a substantially central portion in the width direction of the opening and an edge portion close to the opening of the carrier substance storage chamber; The molding nozzle is inserted from the opening of the battery container enlarged in the first expansion process into the edge portion close to the opening of the carrier material storage chamber, and the peripheral surface shape of the molding nozzle is transferred to the battery container sheet and forced.

There is an effect that can be obtained.

Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described with reference to the drawings.
FIG. 1 is a schematic plan view of a battery manufacturing apparatus provided with a liquid injection device.
The work is a battery container S in which a carrier material as an electrode is accommodated in a bag-like heat-fusible sheet having one end opened.
In the state of the apparatus main body 1, the battery containers S are separated one by one in a state where the battery containers S are supplied to the supply unit 2 provided at the left end, and the opening of the battery container S is on the upper side. Supported by posture.

In parallel with the supply unit 2, a transfer unit 3 including a carrier transport mechanism a is provided. In the transfer unit 3, the dedicated carrier is supported by the carrier transport mechanism a and transported at a predetermined interval. Then, the battery containers S for one row of the dedicated carrier are collectively transferred to another carrier while maintaining the established state.
A liquid injection device E is arranged through a partition facing the end of the transfer unit 3 in the transport direction and separating the atmosphere. The liquid injection device E includes a molding unit 5, a plurality of liquid injection units 6A and 6B disposed adjacent to the molding unit 5, and a weighing inspection unit 7 provided below the liquid injection units 6A and 6B. The defective dispensing section 8 and the impregnation section 9 which are adjacent to the one liquid injection section 6B.

Details of the configuration and operation of the molding part 5, the liquid injection parts 6A and 6B, and the impregnation part 9 will be described later.
The liquid injection parts 6A and 6B are divided into two parts by the first liquid injection part 6A for injecting liquid into the half of the battery containers S supported by the dedicated carrier, and the remaining half of the batteries. The subsequent liquid injection part 6B performs the liquid injection into the container S twice.
In the vicinity of the liquid injection parts 6A and 6B, a tank 10 for storing an electrolytic solution is disposed, and a pump constituting the liquid injection means provided in the liquid injection parts 6A and 6B and a liquid injection nozzle are piped. It communicates through.

The weighing inspection unit 7 measures the battery container S in the liquid injection, and feeds back the detection signal to the control mechanism of the liquid injection units 6A and 6B. Therefore, what is actually measured by the weighing inspection unit 7 is the total amount of the battery container S containing the carrier material and the injected electrolyte.
The defective dispensing unit 8 is configured to dispense a battery container with poor liquid injection that is out of the regulation detected by the weighing inspection unit 8. The impregnation portion 9 includes a first impregnation chamber 9A and a second impregnation chamber 9B disposed at a predetermined distance from the first impregnation chamber 9A.

A transfer robot 11 is disposed between the impregnation chambers 9A and 9B, and a dedicated carrier unloaded from the subsequent liquid injection unit 6B is transferred to the empty space of the impregnation chambers 9A and 9B. And each battery container S is taken out when the impregnation process mentioned later is completed.
Adjacent to such a liquid injection device E, the sealing seal portion 12 is disposed. The sealing portion 12 includes a chamber 13 that houses a sealing mechanism (not shown) that seals the opening of the battery container S, and an inlet-side pressure replacement chamber 14 and an outlet side that are connected to both ends of the conveyance of the chamber 13.

Each of the pressure replacement chambers 14 and 15 opens and closes an external shutter that opens and closes opposite the exterior of the replacement chamber and an internal shutter provided between the chamber 13, so that each interior has the same pressure condition ( Low pressure condition) or open to atmospheric pressure.
In a state where the inside of the chamber 13 is under a predetermined low pressure condition, a sealing mechanism acts to heat and melt the upper end portion of the battery container S, thereby performing a sealing function of sealing the opening. When the openings of all the battery containers S accommodated in the chamber 13 are sealed, the inside of the chamber is opened to atmospheric pressure.

An unloader portion 16 is provided so as to face the outlet side pressure replacement chamber 15. The robot provided in the unloader section 16 extends to the inside of the outlet side pressure replacement chamber 15 with the external shutter open, takes out the dedicated carrier inside, and carries it out of the apparatus.
Next, the configuration of the molding unit 5, the liquid injection units 6 </ b> A and 6 </ b> B, and the impregnation unit 9 constituting the liquid injection device E and their functions will be described in detail.

FIG. 2A is a perspective view showing the positional relationship between the battery case S and the enlarging means in the supply process, and FIG. 2B is a cross-sectional view thereof.
The battery container S is a heat-fusible sheet, for example, formed from an aluminum laminate film. A carrier material accommodation chamber 20 that accommodates and protrudes the carrier material T is provided on the lower surface side and one surface side of the battery container S.

The battery container S is obtained by cutting the heat-fusible sheet into a horizontally-long rectangular shape, forming a fold line along the widthwise central portion, bending the left and right sides, and bonding the one side portion m and the lower side portion n together. A bag shape having an opening b at the upper end is formed.
In such a state in which the battery container S is supplied, both sides of the sheet are in close contact with each other from the opening b, which is the upper edge, to the upper edge of the carrier material storage chamber 20, so that almost no gap is formed.

There is a supply process in which the battery container S described above is supplied from the supply unit 2 to the forming unit 5. And in the said shaping | molding part 5, first, it opposes the 1st suction pad P1 which makes an expansion means, the 2nd suction pad P2, and the 3rd suction pad P3.
Each of the first to third suction pads P1 to P3 includes a suction cup made of an elastic member such as a rubber material at the tip thereof, and is connected to a vacuum pump via a high pressure hose (not shown). The first to third suction pads P1 to P3 are supported by a support mechanism (not shown) so as to be able to reciprocate.

The positions of the suction pads P1 to P3 with respect to the battery container S are set. The first suction pad P <b> 1 faces the central portion in the width direction in the upper portion of the carrier material storage chamber 20 on one side of the battery container S. That is, the first suction pad P1 faces the center portion of the upper end opening b.
The second suction pad P <b> 2 is in a facing portion where the first suction pad P <b> 1 and the battery container S are interposed, and faces the central portion of the upper end opening b on the other surface side of the battery container S. The third suction pad P3 is a lower part of the second suction pad P2 and faces the back surface part of the upper edge of the carrier substance storage chamber 20.

FIG. 3 (A) is a perspective view showing the relationship between the battery container S and the expansion means in a state where the first expansion process is being performed, and FIG. 3 (B) is a perspective view of the battery container back side, FIG. 3C is a cross-sectional view thereof.
When the instruction signal is input, the first to third suction pads P1 to P3 are driven forward all at once and come into contact with the sheet constituting the battery container S. At the same time, the vacuum pump is driven, and the suction pads P1 to P3 vacuum-suck the sheets constituting the battery container S.

  The first to third suction pads P1 to P3 move backward by a predetermined distance at a predetermined timing. Therefore, the sheet interval at the center in the width direction is enlarged at the opening b of the battery case S by the action of the first and second suction pads P1 and P2. That is, the opening amount of the central portion in the width direction is forcibly expanded at the opening b. Furthermore, a first enlargement process is performed in which the upper edge portion near the opening b of the carrier substance accommodation chamber 20 is forcibly expanded by the action of the third adsorption pad P3.

FIG. 4A is a perspective view showing the relationship between the battery container S and the forming means in a state before the first expansion process is completed and the second expansion process is performed, and FIG. Is a cross-sectional view thereof.
While maintaining the position and orientation of each of the first to third suction pads P1 to P3 in the first enlargement step, forming means is provided at the upper part of the opening b of the battery container S and at both ends of the opening b. The forming nozzles N1 and N2 to be configured face each other.

That is, the forming nozzles N1 and N2 are provided in a pair (two sets), each having an axial center in the vertical direction and supported by a lifting mechanism (not shown) so as to be vertically movable.
8A and 8B are cross-sectional views of molding nozzles Na and Nb having different forms.
The molding nozzle Na shown in FIG. 8A is composed of a nozzle body 25 and an attachment part 26 made of different types of synthetic resin materials. The nozzle body 25 has a bowl shape with a diameter of about 10 mm, and the tip (lower end) is formed in a sharp shape.

The attachment part 26 is detachably fitted to the peripheral part of the nozzle body 25, and only the lower end part is tapered. A plurality of different attachments 26 having a diameter of about 20 mm to about 30 mm are prepared and can be exchanged based on specifications.
The molding nozzle Nb shown in FIG. 8B is also made of a synthetic resin material and is tapered from the tip. Plural types with different diameters at the base end are prepared, and those with any diameter are used based on the specifications.

In any type of forming nozzles Na and Nb, a high-pressure air supply hole 27 is provided through the shaft core extending from the base end to the tip, and a high-pressure hose 28 is connected to the base end. The high pressure hose 28 communicates with an air compressor (not shown), and these constitute high pressure air supply means.
FIG. 5A is a perspective view of the battery container S in a state where the second expansion process is performed, and FIG. 5B is a cross-sectional view thereof.
The expansion opening process is continuously performed by the first to third suction pads P1 to P3, and the molding nozzles N1 and N2 are driven to descend simultaneously based on the instruction signal. The molding nozzles N1 and N2 are simultaneously inserted into both ends of the opening b of the battery container S.

Since the tips of the molding nozzles N1 and N2 are formed in a sharp shape, they can be smoothly inserted even if the sheet surface spacing of the battery container S is small. In addition, since the forming nozzles N1 and N2 are entirely tapered, the sheet interval is easily expanded.
The molding nozzles N1 and N2 are simultaneously inserted to a position very close to the carrier material storage chamber 20 (about 10 mm from the upper edge of the carrier material storage chamber). In this state, the peripheral surface shape of the forming nozzles N1 and N2 is transferred to the sheet surface of the battery container S expanded in the first expansion step.

Since the molding nozzles N1 and N2 are inserted after the first expansion process by the suction pads P1 to P3, the sheet spacing of the upper part is reliably pushed out from the carrier material storage chamber 20 of the battery container S. Two enlargement steps are performed.
After the insertion positions of the molding nozzles N1 and N2 are determined, high-pressure air is supplied and instantaneously ejected from the tips of the molding nozzles N1 and N2. The high-pressure air is ejected, for example, at 0.3 mPa for 0.3 sec, thereby further increasing the sheet interval.

Next, each shaping | molding nozzle N1, N2 is extracted from the inside of the battery container S, and the suction | attraction force by the 1st-3rd suction pads P1-P3 is cancelled | released. The battery container S is transferred from the molding part 5 to the liquid injection parts 6A and 6B by a conveying means described later in a state where the battery container S is most expanded and deformed.
A minimum transfer time is required, and during this time, it is inevitable that the opening b of the battery container S enlarged in the first and second expansion steps is deformed to some extent. In other words, the opening b is enlarged to the extent that there is no hindrance to the next process.

6A is a perspective view showing the relationship between the battery container S and the liquid injection means K in a state where the electrolytic solution injection step is performed, and FIG. 6B is a cross-sectional view thereof.
A liquid injection nozzle, which is a liquid injection means K, is inserted into the battery container S, and an electrolytic solution injection step of injecting the electrolytic solution into the battery container S is performed. In the drawing, it is shown that liquid injection is performed by one liquid injection nozzle K, but two liquid injection nozzles may be inserted into both side ends of the battery container S for liquid injection.

In any case, after the opening amount is enlarged by the first to third suction pads P1 to P3, the electrolytic solution is supplied into the battery container S whose opening amount is further enlarged by the molding nozzles N1 and N2. Will do. In particular, since the edge portion close to the opening b of the carrier substance accommodation chamber 20 is opened with a sufficient interval, the electrolyte solution can be smoothly penetrated.
9A and 9B are perspective views of liquid injection nozzles Ka and Kb having different forms.
As shown in FIG. 9A, there are a liquid injection nozzle Ka having one nozzle part d and a liquid injection nozzle Kb having a plurality of nozzle parts d as shown in FIG. 9B. The nozzle portions d of any of the liquid injection nozzles Ka and Kb have the same diameter, and one of the liquid injection nozzles Ka and Kb is selected based on the injection amount specification.

That is, if the diameter of the nozzle part d is more than the necessary minimum, instead of increasing the injection amount per unit time, a liquid pool (droplet) is likely to be formed at the tip after the liquid injection is completed. It becomes a state.
Therefore, the diameter of the nozzle part d is kept to the minimum necessary. When the liquid supply amount is small, the injection nozzle Ka having one nozzle part d is used, and when the liquid supply amount increases, the nozzle part d A large number of liquid injection nozzles Kb may be used.

The battery container S that has been subjected to the liquid injection process in this way is transferred to another dedicated carrier in the dedicated carrier, and the above-described transport robot 11 transports the dedicated carrier together with the impregnation unit 9.
FIG. 10A is a perspective view illustrating the configuration of the transport unit 30 with respect to the injected battery container S, and FIG. 10B is a perspective view illustrating the transport state of the battery container S by the transport unit 30. It is.

The conveying means 30 includes a gripping mechanism 31 that grips the side part m that is pasted on the battery container S that has been injected, and a hooking mechanism 32 that hooks the bottom part n that is pasted.
The gripping mechanism 31 is composed of a pair of claws, facing the battery container S with the tips of the mutual claws open, and the tips of the claws abutting via the side portions m to be in a gripping state. Become.

The hooking mechanism 32 moves from a position facing the battery container together with the gripping mechanism 31. It has a substantially flat plate shape and is provided with a dividing groove 33 from the tip to the middle part, and a lower side n of the battery container S is inserted therein.
The gripping mechanism 31 grips the side part m on which the battery container S is bonded, and the split groove 33 of the hooking mechanism 32 is engaged with the lower side part n on which the battery container S is bonded. Next, the gripping mechanism 31 moves from the molding unit 6 to the liquid injection units 6A and 6B or from the liquid injection units 6A and 6B to the dedicated carrier.

The hooking mechanism 32 moves by being pushed by the side edge of the battery container S and follows the gripping mechanism 31. Since the gripping mechanism 31 grips the side part m to which the battery container S is bonded, there is no deformation of the battery container S and there is no change in the state of the injected electrolyte.
That is, even if the electrolyte solution is moved into the battery container S, there is no influence on the electrolyte solution inside. Since the engaging mechanism 32 engages with the lower side n of the battery container S, it is possible to carry the battery container S while maintaining the posture of the battery container S.

7A, 7B, and 7C are schematic views showing states of impregnation chambers 9A and 9B constituting a predetermined impregnation portion 9 in the impregnation step, and a battery container S accommodated in the impregnation chamber. FIG.
As shown in FIG. 7A, the battery container S is exposed to the impregnation portion 9 under a predetermined pressure condition. In other words, the electrolyte injected into the carrier material accommodation chamber 20 is not easily impregnated due to the bubbles present in the carrier material T, and most of the electrolyte solution remains in the carrier material accommodation chamber 20 while remaining in the carrier material accommodation chamber 20. It is carried in.

Since the impregnation portion 9 is exposed to an environment under a predetermined low-pressure condition, bubbles existing in the carrier material T and in the electrolytic solution are degassed. Instead, the electrolyte accumulated in the carrier material storage chamber 20 penetrates and impregnates the carrier material T itself.
The impregnation portion 9 accommodates a compression mechanism 40. The compression mechanism 40 is composed of a pair of plates that are driven in a reciprocating manner, and is positioned so that the carrier material storage chamber 20 of the battery container S is interposed between the plates.

While the impregnation portion 9 is held under a predetermined low pressure condition, the pair of plate bodies constituting the compression mechanism 40 is driven to reciprocate in a direction approaching and a distance from each other. In this manner, the compression mechanism 40 simultaneously performs the compression / release process of pressing and releasing the carrier material storage chamber 20 from both sides.
By continuing the above process for a predetermined time (about 20 minutes), bubbles present in the carrier material T and the electrolyte solution are completely degassed, and the electrolyte solution is impregnated in the carrier material T. Therefore, as shown in FIG. 7C, the impregnation portion 9 is opened to the atmosphere and returned to atmospheric pressure.
