Abstract
This application provides an apparatus and method for detecting tab folds, and an image analyzer. The apparatus for detecting tab folds includes: a first image obtaining module, configured to obtain a first image of a first lateral face of tabs of a battery cell; a second image obtaining module, configured to obtain a second image of a second lateral face of the tabs, where the second lateral face is different from the first lateral face; and an image analyzer, configured to obtain, based on the first image, a first number of layers of the tabs corresponding to the first lateral face, and obtain, based on the second image, a second number of layers of the tabs corresponding to the second lateral face, and determine, based on at least one of the first number of layers or the second number of layers, whether the tabs are in a folded state.
