  • Publication number: 20250030038
    Abstract: A cylindrical cell flattening method and apparatus are disclosed, which relate to the technical field of cell manufacturing. The cylindrical cell flattening method includes the steps of: loading a battery core onto a base; compressing an outer peripheral surface of the battery core and fixing the battery core; and applying a force to the tabs of the battery core in an axial direction thereof so as to flatten the tabs. The cylindrical cell flattening method and apparatus provided by the present application enables flattening of the tabs of the battery core without colliding with an end surface of the battery core, thus reducing the reject rate during processing.

  • Patent number: 10783884
    Abstract: The present disclosure provides an electronic device-awakening method and apparatus, a device and a computer-readable storage medium. In embodiments of the present disclosure, the user's speech wakeup instruction which is used to awaken the electronic device is obtained, and then an audio data file is selected from at least two audio data files according to the speech wakeup instruction, as a wakeup answer file of the electronic device, so that the wakeup answer file of the electronic device can be played. Since there are more than one selectable audio data files, many types of prompt tones can be provided, thereby achieving the purpose of providing many types of wakeup prompts.
