Said " H " type gantry bracing frame 3 is fixed on the both sides of workbench 1, and it comprises " H " type gantry bracing frame 8 and laser head drive unit 9, and drive unit 9 is made up of drive motors 10 and screw rod 11.Drive motors 10 makes screw rod 11 rotations, is used for driving laser head 13 and moves (seeing also Fig. 3,4).
Said workbench comprises X, Y axial brake device 18 and support platform 14.Making screw rod 20 rotations be used to drive support platform 14 by drive motors 19 moves.
See also Fig. 4, when carrying out the laser weld of lithium ion battery module 15 and brace 16, at first, start X, Y axial brake device 18 drive support platforms 14, make battery modules 15 and brace 16 move to the relevant position; Next, start cylinder 5, promote piston rod 17 drive clamping frames 4 brace 16 is pressed on battery 15 tops; Start laser, make laser pass slit 6 and penetrate, meanwhile, start laser head drive unit 9 driving laser heads 13 and move at brace 16, make laser along the direction of slit 6 move to subscribe the position after, stop laser.Stop cylinder 5 work; Make piston rod 17 drive clamping frame 4 and break away from brace 16, restart X, Y axial brake device 18 drive support platforms 14, make battery modules 15 and brace 16 move to the relevant position; Beginning is welding next time; This time during laser weld, laser head drive unit 9 driving laser heads 13 along with last time rightabout move, drive laser head 13 and get back to initial position.
Embodiment two
See also Fig. 5-7, present embodiment is applicable to fixed light path output type laser instrument.The anchor clamps of this battery pack and brace welding mainly comprise workbench 1, hold-down mechanism 2 and " H " type gantry supporting construction 3.
Said hold-down mechanism is fixed on " H " type gantry supporting construction 3, and it comprises a clamping frame 30 (seeing also Fig. 6) and cylinder driver 5.Clamping frame 30 is for there being the steel design of slit 6.The two ends of clamping frame 30 are connected with the piston rod 17 of cylinder driver 5 respectively.There is the block rubber 7 that contains slit 6 clamping frame 30 bottom surfaces.
