Method and device for producing a cell stack for battery cells
A method for producing a cell stack ( 57 ) for battery cells ( 8 ) comprises at least the following steps: a) feeding in at least a first material strip ( 3 ) comprising a first material; b) feeding in a second material strip ( 22, 27 ) comprising a second material; c) making a first cut into the first material strip ( 3 ) and into the second material strip ( 22, 27 ), in each case forming at least one transport section ( 18 ) (having tensile strength), whereby the appertaining transport sections ( 18 ) are arranged offset in the crosswise direction relative to the material strip ( 3, 22, 27 ); d) combining the first material strip ( 3 ) and the second material strip ( 22, 27 ); and e) making a second cut, whereby the transport sections ( 18 ) of the first and second material strips ( 3, 22, 27 ) are cut independently of each other at separating cuts ( 14 ) that are offset, at least in the crosswise direction or in the lengthwise direction.
1 . A method for manufacturing a partial stack of a cell stack for battery cells, said method comprising at least the following steps:
a) feeding in at least a first elongated material strip comprising a first material;
b) feeding in a second elongated material strip comprising a second material;
c) making a first initial cut into the first material strip, forming in the first material strip a continuous transport section having tensile strength which absorbs tensile forces in a longitudinal direction of the first material strip;
d) making a second initial cut into the second material strip, forming in the second material strip a continuous transport section having tensile strength which absorbs tensile forces in a longitudinal direction of the second material strip;
e) combining the first material strip and the second material strip to form an elongated partial stack, such that, after the material strips have been combined, the transport section of the second material strip is arranged offset in the crosswise direction relative to the transport section of the first material strip; and
f) making a second cut, whereby the transport sections of the first and second material strips are cut independently of each other at first and second separating cuts, respectively, that are offset, at least in the crosswise direction or additionally in the length wise direction, so that the respective transport section is cut through crosswise and a complete division of the partial stack is produced in the crosswise direction.
2 . The method according to claim 1 , whereby the first and second elongated material strips have different dimensions, at least in the crosswise direction.
3 . The method according to claim 1 , whereby a window section is created in at least one material strip, the window section being selected in such a way that the separating cut of the transport section of at least one other material strip is within the window section.
4 . The method according to claim 1 , whereby, after the second cut, at least two partial stacks are arranged so as to form a cell stack.
5 . The method according to claim 4 , whereby the partial stacks consist of at least four material strips.
6 . The method according to claim 1 , whereby arrester lugs are formed on at least two material strips during the cutting.
7 . The method according to claim 1 , whereby the cell stack is joined to form a cell packet using a joining means.
8 . The method according to claim 4 , whereby at least one additional material strip is arranged in the cell stack while the partial stacks are arranged to form the cell stack.
9 . A battery cell having a cell stack, produced according to claim 1 .
10 . A motor vehicle having at least one battery cell according to claim 9 .
11 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the transport sections of the first and second material strips are, at least until the crosswise second cut, continuous along the respective strip.
12 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the step of making a first initial cut comprises cutting the first elongated material strip in at least the longitudinal direction.
13 . The method according to claim 1 , wherein the step of making a second initial cut comprises cutting the second elongated material strip in at least the longitudinal direction.
