An apparatus for forming a pouch-shaped secondary battery case is provided. The apparatus for forming a pouch-shaped secondary battery case includes a die having a forming recess formed therein, a punch configured to be brought into tight contact with an inner surface of the forming recess while moving upwards and downwards above the die, and a pouch sheet fixing unit configured to fix an edge of the pouch sheet while moving upwards and downwards above the die. The punch is provided with a plurality of air channels configured to blow outside air in a direction toward the forming recess or to suction air. The apparatus is capable of determining whether a pouch sheet is defective and preventing cracks from being formed in a receiving recess. A forming method using the same is also provided.

The present invention relates to a method for sealing a pouch-type secondary battery and may provide a method for sealing a pouch-type secondary battery, the method including: a first sealing process of vertically pressing a sealing area of upper and lower pouches through a sealing apparatus; and a second sealing process of moving the sealing apparatus outward from the inside of the pouch in the state of pressing the sealing area of the upper and lower pouches through the sealing apparatus.

A plastic component (100) with a substrate (130; 230) comprised of a plastic and at least one first fastening piece (110) that is embodied for a form-fitting engagement with a complementarily formed second fastening piece (210) and has at least one anchoring element (112; 212) for being embedded and fixed in position in the substrate (130; 230); the substrate (130; 230) is comprised of soft foam with a weight per unit volume of 120 kg/m3 to 300 kg/m3 and a Shore A hardness of 5 to 100 and the fastening element (110; 210) is comprised of a thermoplastic plastic.

A method of forming a package is provided and includes providing two laminate edge portions of the package, each of which includes a foil layer between first and second resin layers; and welding together the respective first resin layers at a first position spaced apart from the edges while not welding the respective first resin layers at the edges, wherein the edge portions include edges from which electrode terminals extend such that portions of the electrode terminals are exposed beyond the edges, and wherein the edge portions are between a sealing portion and exposed portions of positive and negative electrode terminals.

A battery shell, in particular a battery shell of a traction battery, wherein the battery shell has a base and at least four side walls, wherein the battery shell has an inner side and an outer side, wherein the battery shell is formed in hybrid design from an insertion part and a molding compound. The invention also relates to a traction battery comprising the same battery shell and a motor vehicle comprising the same battery shell. Furthermore, the invention relates to a tool for producing this battery shell and a method for producing the battery shell.

The present invention relates to a sealing device, and more particularly, to a sealing device in which a temperature of a sealing surface of the sealing device is constantly maintained has an appropriate solvent is continuously heated using a phase change, thereby manufacturing a pouch sealing part having excellent quality in a product of a pouch type secondary battery.

The sealing device according to the present invention includes a sealing body provided with a sealing surface, which is configured to seal a sealing target object, on one surface thereof, a solvent that is in contact with the other surface of the sealing body to supply heat to the sealing body, and a heat source configured to heat the solvent so that at least a portion of the solvent is phase-changed into a gas.

A pouch-shaped case forming apparatus for forming a pouch-shaped case has a terrace step, wherein there are no dents or wrinkles at a pouch folding portion of the pouch-shaped case.

A battery assembly includes a battery array and a foam shell that surrounds the battery array. The battery array may be housed within a foam shell, and a barrier can be secured to the foam shell to establish a battery assembly. The battery assembly may then be secured to a vehicle body.

Provided is a thermoplastic resin film laminate, which is obtained by ultrasonic welding of a thermoplastic resin film and a thermoplastic resin molded article, and which has high welding strength and excellent appearance with less welding marks. The above-described problem is solved by a thermoplastic resin film laminate which is obtained by bonding, by ultrasonic welding, a thermoplastic resin film having a thickness of 0.4 mm or less and a welding margin of a thermoplastic resin molded article having the welding margin and having a thickness of 0.5 mm or more, and wherein the height of the welding margin is 75-125% of the thickness of the thermoplastic resin film.

A cell packaging material in which the substrate layer surface has excellent ink printing characteristics. Cell packaging material including a layered article provided with at least a substrate layer, a metal layer, and a heast-fusible layer in the stated order, the substrate layer being formed from a polyamide resin containing an ethylene-bis-stearic acid amide and an ethylene-bis-oleic acid amide.
