Application: Secondary battery manufacturing system having a multi-packaging unit (Patent ID: US20240079630A1)
The patent filed by SK Innovation Co Ltd. describes a secondary battery manufacturing system with multiple packaging units, a transfer unit, an electrode supply unit, a tab welding unit, and a temporary buffer. The system includes a transfer box in which an electrode assembly is seated and transferred to each packaging unit. The transfer unit selectively transfers the transfer box to different packaging units based on controller commands. The system is designed to efficiently assemble secondary batteries by automating the process of electrode assembly, tab welding, and packaging.
The secondary battery manufacturing system also includes features such as automatic guided vehicles (AGV) or autonomous mobile robots (AMR) for transferring the transfer boxes, circular movement along a virtual path, and a flow prevention unit in the transfer box to prevent movement of electrode assemblies. The system is arranged in a parallel direction with interconnected components controlled wirelessly. The flow prevention unit includes fixing tables, lifting links, and moving blocks to space the seating plates apart. Additionally, pressure plates, lifting supports, elastic members, and pushing rods are used to ensure proper spacing of the seating plates. Overall, the system aims to streamline the manufacturing process of secondary batteries by optimizing the transfer, welding, and packaging steps.
