Description

本発明は、電池が短絡している不良品であるかどうかを判定する電池の検査装置及び電池の検査方法の技術に関する。   The present invention relates to a battery inspection apparatus and a battery inspection method for determining whether a battery is a defective product that is short-circuited.

リチウムイオン二次電池等の二次電池では、金属等の異物混入により内部短絡が発生することがある。二次電池が短絡(内部短絡及び外部短絡を含む)している不良品であると判定する方法として、電池を自己放電させて、基準時間の電圧降下量を測定する検査方法が知られている(例えば、特許文献1)。   In a secondary battery such as a lithium ion secondary battery, an internal short circuit may occur due to contamination of foreign substances such as metal. As a method for determining that a secondary battery is a defective product short-circuited (including an internal short-circuit and an external short-circuit), an inspection method is known in which a battery is self-discharged and a voltage drop amount at a reference time is measured. (For example, patent document 1).

図4を用いて、電圧降下量ΔEについて説明する。
なお、図4では、電圧降下量ΔEをグラフ図(横軸は時系列Tであって右側に向かうに従って時間が経過し、縦軸は電圧降下量ΔEであって下側に向かうほど電圧降下量ΔEが多くなる)によって表している。
The voltage drop amount ΔE will be described with reference to FIG.
In FIG. 4, the voltage drop amount ΔE is a graph (the horizontal axis is time series T and time elapses toward the right side, and the vertical axis is the voltage drop amount ΔE, and the voltage drop amount decreases toward the lower side. ΔE increases).

特許文献1に開示される従来の代表的な電池の検査方法では、自己放電前電圧E0と自己放電後電圧E1との差である電圧降下量ΔEによって近似線(図4における実線)を作成し、作成した近似線によって基準時間Tsにおける電圧降下量ΔEを算出し、算出した電圧降下量ΔEに基づいて、電池が短絡している不良品であるかどうかを判定している。   In the conventional typical battery inspection method disclosed in Patent Document 1, an approximate line (solid line in FIG. 4) is created by a voltage drop amount ΔE which is the difference between the pre-self-discharge voltage E0 and the post-self-discharge voltage E1. The voltage drop amount ΔE at the reference time Ts is calculated from the created approximate line, and it is determined whether the battery is a defective product that is short-circuited based on the calculated voltage drop amount ΔE.

しかし、実際の電圧挙動(図4における破線)と近似線とには乖離があるため、検査を行う二次電池の自己放電前の測定タイミングT0から自己放電後の測定タイミングT1までの経過時間(放電時間Tr)と、良否判定基準の電圧降下量の経過時間(基準時間Ts)とが異なる場合には、正確な良否判定ができない。放電時間Trと基準時間Tsとが異なる場合としては、例えば、工場の休業時間(土日祝等)に電圧測定装置を作動できない場合、或いは、電圧測定装置のサイクルタイムによって基準時間Ts経過後に電圧測定できない場合等が考えられる。   However, since there is a difference between the actual voltage behavior (broken line in FIG. 4) and the approximate line, the elapsed time from the measurement timing T0 before self-discharge of the secondary battery to be inspected to the measurement timing T1 after self-discharge ( When the discharge time Tr) is different from the elapsed time (reference time Ts) of the voltage drop amount based on the pass / fail criterion, an accurate pass / fail judgment cannot be made. Examples of the case where the discharge time Tr and the reference time Ts are different include, for example, the case where the voltage measuring device cannot be operated during the factory closing time (Saturdays, Sundays, holidays, etc.), or the voltage measurement after the reference time Ts has elapsed due to the cycle time of the voltage measuring device The case where it cannot be considered.

一方、電圧の測定ポイントを増やすことによって、実際の電圧挙動に近い近似線を作成することができるものの、実際の検査工程では電圧測定装置のサイクルタイム又はコスト等の都合によって2点のみしか測定できない。そのため、電池の検査方法では、短絡している不良品の判定精度を向上することが求められている。   On the other hand, although an approximate line close to the actual voltage behavior can be created by increasing the voltage measurement points, only two points can be measured in the actual inspection process due to the cycle time or cost of the voltage measurement device. . Therefore, in the battery inspection method, it is required to improve the determination accuracy of defective products that are short-circuited.

図2を用いて、検査工程S100について説明する。
なお、図2では、検査工程S100の流れをフローチャートにて表している。
The inspection process S100 will be described with reference to FIG.
In addition, in FIG. 2, the flow of inspection process S100 is represented with the flowchart.

検査工程S100は、本発明の電池の検査装置及び電池の検査方法の実施形態である。検査工程S100は、リチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・を自己放電させたとき、自己放電前後の電圧降下量ΔEに基づいて、リチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・短絡の有無を検知して、リチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・が不良品であるかどうかの判定を行う工程である。   The inspection step S100 is an embodiment of the battery inspection device and the battery inspection method of the present invention. In the inspection step S100, when the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... Are self-discharged, based on the voltage drop amount ΔE before and after the self-discharge, the presence or absence of the lithium ion secondary batteries 10.10. This is a step of detecting and determining whether or not the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... Are defective.

ステップS110において、充電装置30(図1参照)によってリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・を充電する。このとき、充電装置30によって検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・が同時に充電されるものとする。   In step S110, the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... Are charged by the charging device 30 (see FIG. 1). At this time, it is assumed that all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... In the inspection lot are charged simultaneously by the charging device 30.

なお、検査ロットとは、同一の正極用電極シートから切り出した正極部材と、同一の負極用電極シートから切り出した負極部材と、を組み合わせて生成された捲回体を備えるリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・としている。   The inspection lot is a lithium ion secondary battery 10 including a wound body produced by combining a positive electrode member cut out from the same positive electrode sheet and a negative electrode member cut out from the same negative electrode sheet.・ 10 ...

ステップS120において、コントローラ50は、電圧測定装置20によって、充電が完了したリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・の自己放電前における自己放電前電圧E0をそれぞれ測定する。このとき、電圧測定装置20によって検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・の自己放電前電圧E0が同時に測定されるものとする。   In step S120, the controller 50 measures the pre-self-discharge voltage E0 before the self-discharge of the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10,... At this time, it is assumed that the voltage measuring device 20 simultaneously measures the pre-self-discharge voltage E0 of all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10.

ステップS130において、コントローラ50は、リチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・を自己放電させる。このとき、検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・が同時に自己放電されるものとする。   In step S130, the controller 50 self-discharges the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10. At this time, all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... In the inspection lot are simultaneously self-discharged.

ステップS140において、コントローラ50は、電圧測定装置20によって、自己放電開始から放電時間Tr経過後のリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・の自己放電後電圧E1を測定する。このとき、電圧測定装置20によって検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・の自己放電後電圧E1が同時に測定されるものとする。   In step S140, the controller 50 uses the voltage measuring device 20 to measure the self-discharge voltage E1 of the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... After the discharge time Tr has elapsed from the start of self-discharge. At this time, it is assumed that the self-discharge voltage E1 of all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10.

なお、電圧測定装置20によってリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・の自己放電後における自己放電後電圧E1を測定するタイミングについては特に限定しない。言い換えれば、後述する基準電圧降下量偏差ΔEsの基準時間Tsと、実測の放電時間Trとは異なっていても良い。   In addition, the timing which measures the voltage E1 after the self-discharge after the self-discharge of the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10. In other words, a reference time Ts of a reference voltage drop amount deviation ΔEs described later may be different from an actually measured discharge time Tr.

ステップS150において、コントローラ50は、検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・について、自己放電前電圧E0から自己放電後電圧E1を差し引いた電圧降下量ΔEを算出する。このとき、コントローラ50によって検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・の電圧降下量ΔEが同時に算出されるものとする。   In step S150, the controller 50 calculates the voltage drop amount ΔE obtained by subtracting the post-self-discharge voltage E1 from the pre-self-discharge voltage E0 for all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10. At this time, it is assumed that the voltage drop amount ΔE of all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10.

ステップS160において、コントローラ50は、検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・の電圧降下量ΔEのうちから、中央値(メジアン)ΔEmを算出する。なお、中央値ΔEmは、検査工程S100において、良品であるリチウムイオン二次電池の電圧降下量の位置づけとなる。   In step S160, the controller 50 calculates a median (median) ΔEm from among the voltage drop amounts ΔE of all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... In the inspection lot. The median value ΔEm is the position of the voltage drop amount of a non-defective lithium ion secondary battery in the inspection step S100.

ステップS170において、コントローラ50は、検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・について、それぞれの電圧降下量ΔEと中央値ΔEmとの差である電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmを算出する。   In step S170, the controller 50 calculates a voltage drop deviation ΔE−ΔEm that is the difference between the voltage drop ΔE and the median value ΔEm for all of the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... In the inspection lot. To do.

ステップS180において、コントローラ50は、検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・について、それぞれの電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmに放電時間Trに対する基準時間Tsの割合(Ts/Tr)を乗じて、基準時間Tsにおける電圧降下量偏差(基準時間)(ΔE―ΔEm)sを算出する。   In step S180, the controller 50 determines the ratio of the reference time Ts to the discharge time Tr (Ts / Tr) to the voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm for all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10. To calculate a voltage drop amount deviation (reference time) (ΔE−ΔEm) s at the reference time Ts.

ステップS190において、コントローラ50は、検査ロットの全てのリチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・について、それぞれの電圧降下量偏差(基準時間)(ΔE―ΔEm)sが基準電圧降下量偏差ΔEsより小さいかどうかを確認する。なお、基準電圧降下量偏差ΔEsとは、基準時間Tsにおける良品として許容される電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmであって、予めコントローラ50に設定されている値である。   In step S190, the controller 50 determines that each voltage drop amount deviation (reference time) (ΔE−ΔEm) s is greater than the reference voltage drop amount deviation ΔEs for all the lithium ion secondary batteries 10. Check if it is small. The reference voltage drop amount deviation ΔEs is a voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm allowed as a non-defective product at the reference time Ts, and is a value set in the controller 50 in advance.

電圧降下量偏差(基準時間)(ΔE―ΔEm)sが基準電圧降下量偏差ΔEsより小さい場合には、ステップS210に移行する。電圧降下量偏差(基準時間)(ΔE―ΔEm)sが基準電圧降下量偏差ΔEs以上の場合には、ステップS220に移行する。   When the voltage drop amount deviation (reference time) (ΔE−ΔEm) s is smaller than the reference voltage drop amount deviation ΔEs, the process proceeds to step S210. When the voltage drop amount deviation (reference time) (ΔE−ΔEm) s is equal to or larger than the reference voltage drop amount deviation ΔEs, the process proceeds to step S220.

ステップS210において、コントローラ50は、判定対象のリチウムイオン二次電池10について、短絡していない良品であると判定する。   In step S210, the controller 50 determines that the lithium ion secondary battery 10 to be determined is a non-defective product that is not short-circuited.

ステップS220において、コントローラ50は、判定対象のリチウムイオン二次電池10について、短絡している不良品であると判定する。   In step S220, the controller 50 determines that the lithium ion secondary battery 10 to be determined is a defective product that is short-circuited.

図3を用いて、電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmについて説明する。
なお、図3では、電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmをグラフ図(横軸は時系列Tであって右側に向かうに従って時間が経過し、縦軸は電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmであって下側に向かうに従って電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmが大きくなる)によって表している。
The voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm will be described with reference to FIG.
In FIG. 3, the voltage drop deviation ΔE−ΔEm is a graph (the horizontal axis is time series T and time elapses toward the right side, and the vertical axis is the voltage drop deviation ΔE−ΔEm. The voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm increases as it goes to ().

検査工程S100では、電圧降下量ΔEと中央値ΔEmとの差である電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmによって近似線(図3における実線)を作成し、作成した近似線によって基準時間Tsにおける電圧降下量偏差(基準時間)(ΔE―ΔEm)sを算出し、算出した電圧降下量偏差(基準時間)(ΔE―ΔEm)sに基づいて電池が良品であるかどうかを判定している。   In the inspection step S100, an approximate line (solid line in FIG. 3) is created by the voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm which is the difference between the voltage drop amount ΔE and the median value ΔEm, and the voltage drop amount at the reference time Ts is created by the created approximate line. Deviation (reference time) (ΔE−ΔEm) s is calculated, and whether or not the battery is a good product is determined based on the calculated voltage drop amount deviation (reference time) (ΔE−ΔEm) s.

ここで、電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmによる近似線は直線性が高く、実際の電圧挙動(図3における破線)との乖離がほとんどない。この理由としては、電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmは、不良品のリチウムイオン2次電池10の自己放電量である電圧降下量ΔEと、良品のリチウムイオン2次電池10の自己放電量である中央値ΔEmとの差であり、言い換えれば、金属の短絡による電圧降下量である。つまり、金属の短絡による電圧降下量は、オームの法則に従って、時系列に対して直線的に電圧が低下するからである。   Here, the approximate line based on the voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm has high linearity, and there is almost no deviation from the actual voltage behavior (broken line in FIG. 3). This is because the voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm is a voltage drop amount ΔE that is a self-discharge amount of a defective lithium ion secondary battery 10 and a center that is a self-discharge amount of a non-defective lithium ion secondary battery 10. This is the difference from the value ΔEm, in other words, the amount of voltage drop due to a short circuit of the metal. That is, the voltage drop due to the short circuit of the metal is linearly reduced with respect to time series according to Ohm's law.

検査装置100及び検査工程S100の効果について説明する。
従来、リチウムイオン二次電池10・10・・・が短絡している不良品であるかどうかの判定では、電圧降下量ΔEによって近似線を作成し、作成した近似線によって基準時間Tsにおける電圧降下量ΔEを算出し、算出した電圧降下量ΔEに基づいて電池が短絡している不良品であるかどうかを判定していた。しかし、実際の電圧挙動(図4における破線)と近似線とには乖離があるため、放電時間Trと基準時間Tsとが異なる場合には、正確な良否判定ができなかった。
The effects of the inspection apparatus 100 and the inspection process S100 will be described.
Conventionally, in determining whether or not the lithium ion secondary batteries 10, 10... Are defective short-circuited, an approximate line is created based on the voltage drop amount ΔE, and the voltage drop at the reference time Ts is created using the created approximate line. The amount ΔE is calculated, and whether or not the battery is a defective product is determined based on the calculated voltage drop amount ΔE. However, since there is a difference between the actual voltage behavior (broken line in FIG. 4) and the approximate line, when the discharge time Tr and the reference time Ts are different, an accurate pass / fail judgment cannot be made.

検査装置100及び検査工程S100によれば、短絡している不良品の判定精度を向上できる。すなわち、電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmによる近似線は直線性が高く、実際の電圧挙動と乖離がほとんどないため、放電時間Trと基準時間Tsとが異なる場合であっても、正確な良否判定ができる。   According to the inspection apparatus 100 and the inspection step S100, it is possible to improve the determination accuracy of a defective product that is short-circuited. That is, the approximate line based on the voltage drop amount deviation ΔE−ΔEm has high linearity, and there is almost no deviation from the actual voltage behavior. Therefore, even when the discharge time Tr and the reference time Ts are different, accurate pass / fail judgment is possible. it can.

また、電圧降下量偏差ΔE―ΔEmによる近似線は直線性が高く、実際の電圧挙動と乖離がほとんどないため、基準電圧降下量偏差ΔEsの基準時間Tsと実測の放電時間Trとが異なっていても短絡している不良品の判定精度を向上できる。すなわち、工場の休業時間(土日祝)に電圧測定装置20を作動できない場合、或いは、電圧測定装置20のサイクルタイムによって基準時間Ts経過後に電圧測定できない場合であっても短絡している不良品の判定がきる。   In addition, the approximate line based on the voltage drop deviation ΔE−ΔEm has high linearity and almost no deviation from the actual voltage behavior. Therefore, the reference time Ts of the reference voltage drop deviation ΔEs is different from the actually measured discharge time Tr. In addition, it is possible to improve the determination accuracy of defective products that are short-circuited. That is, even if the voltage measuring device 20 cannot be operated during the factory closed time (Saturdays, Sundays, and holidays) or even if the voltage cannot be measured after the lapse of the reference time Ts due to the cycle time of the voltage measuring device 20, Judgment is complete.
