AI Technical Summary
During the electrode sheet coating process, the thickness of the surface coating area of the foil is inconsistent, resulting in rough cutting cross-sections, prone to large particles falling off and burrs, causing risks such as battery short circuit, low pressure or spontaneous combustion.
Using an electrode sheet structure and a manufacturing control system, the first slurry is formed by setting the pole ear region, the first cutting region and the second cutting region on the substrate, and applying slurry layers of different thicknesses in these intervals. The first thickness of the material layer and the second slurry layer is greater than the second thickness, ensuring that the slurry thickness in the cutting area is thinner, forming a groove shape, and improving cutting flatness and energy density.
The pole sheet structure is optimized to avoid large particles in the cutting position and burrs, improve the safety and reliability of the battery, and reduce the risk of battery short circuit and combustion.

[0052] In addition, the term "plurality" shall mean two or more.
[0053] It should be noted that, in the absence of conflict, the embodiments and features in the embodiments of the present application can be combined with each other. The present application will be described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings and in combination with the embodiments.
[0054] In one embodiment, Figure 1 As shown, a pole piece structure is provided, including a substrate 10 and a slurry layer 20, the substrate 10 is provided with a pole lug area 110, a first cutting area 120 and a second cutting area 130; the pole lug area 110 is located between the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130; the slurry layer 20 is arranged in contact with the substrate 10, and the slurry layer 20 is divided into a first slurry layer 210 and a second slurry layer 220, the first slurry layer 210 is arranged between the first cutting area 120 and the pole lug area 110 and between the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110; the second slurry layer 220 is arranged in the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130, and the thickness of the first slurry layer 210 is greater than the thickness of the second slurry layer 220.
[0055] Among them, the substrate 10 can be but not limited to aluminum foil, and the substrate 10 can be in a sheet structure. Exemplarily, the substrate 10 is provided with at least one tab area 110 and at least two cutting areas, each cutting area is arranged at intervals, and one tab area 110 is arranged between two adjacent cutting areas, and one of the two adjacent cutting areas can be determined as the first cutting area 120, and the other cutting area is determined as the second cutting area 130, that is, the tab area 110 is arranged between the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130. It should be noted that the position and size of the cutting area and the position and size of the tab area 110 can be pre-set based on the model of the battery product, and then the substrate 10 is divided into regions according to the pre-set position and size of the cutting area and the position and size of the tab area 110, so as to obtain the tab area 110, the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130.
[0056] The slurry layer 20 refers to a coating composed of slurry. The slurry layer 20 can be attached to the substrate 10 by coating. The slurry layer 20 may include a first slurry layer 210 and a second slurry layer 220. For example, the slurry contained in the first slurry layer 210 and the slurry contained in the second slurry layer 220 are slurries of the same material. The thickness of the first slurry layer 210 is set to be greater than the thickness of the second slurry layer 220. The exemplary pipeline can output the slurry corresponding to the first thickness through the corresponding container to form the first slurry layer 210; and output the slurry corresponding to the second thickness through the corresponding container to form the second slurry layer 220. Among them, the first thickness is greater than the second thickness. It should be noted that the slurry can be a mixture of powdered active materials and binders, and the powdered active materials and binders can be stirred to form slurry through a stirring process.
[0057] A first slurry layer 210 is formed on the substrate 10 between the first cutting area 120 and the tab area 110 by applying a first thickness of slurry between the first cutting area 120 and the tab area 110; a first slurry layer 210 is formed on the substrate 10 between the second cutting area 130 and the tab area 110 by applying a second thickness of slurry between the second cutting area 130 and the tab area 110; a second slurry layer 220 is formed in the first cutting area 120 by applying a second thickness of slurry in the first cutting area 120; a second slurry layer 220 is formed in the second cutting area 130 by applying a second thickness of slurry in the second cutting area 130; thereby, a groove structure is formed in the first cutting area 120, and a groove structure is formed in the second cutting area 130, and an optimized pole piece structure is formed by cutting the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130. By coating the slurry on all areas except the tab area 110, the energy density of the battery can be ensured; by reducing the slurry thickness of the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130, grooves are formed in the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130, and when the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 are cut, the cutting surface is smooth, avoiding the formation of burrs and large particles on the cutting surface and material falling, avoiding the formation of corresponding battery diaphragm melting holes, resulting in battery short circuit, battery low voltage or spontaneous combustion, etc.
[0058] It should be noted that the tab area 110 does not need to be coated with slurry, so that the tab area 110 forms an exposed area, so that the tab area 110 is used for welding the tab.
[0059] In the above-mentioned embodiment, a pole lug area 110, a first cutting area 120 and a second cutting area 130 are provided through a substrate 10; the pole lug area 110 is located between the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130; the slurry layer 20 is arranged in contact with the substrate 10, and the slurry layer 20 is divided into a first slurry layer 210 and a second slurry layer 220, the first slurry layer 210 is arranged between the first cutting area 120 and the pole lug area 110 and between the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110; the second slurry layer 220 is arranged in the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130, and the thickness of the first slurry layer 210 is greater than the thickness of the second slurry layer 220, and then after cutting the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130, an optimized pole piece structure can be obtained. The present application coats the second slurry layer 220 on the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130, and sets the thickness of the second slurry layer 220 to be less than the thickness of the first slurry layer 210, so that the slurry thickness at the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 is thinner, thereby forming groove shapes in the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 respectively. Since the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 are coated with slurry, the energy density of the battery is guaranteed, and the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 can be uniformly stressed and the cut surface is smooth during cutting, thereby avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuit of the battery and battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0060] In one embodiment, Figure 2 As shown, the substrate 10 has a first board surface and a second board surface relative to each other; the first cutting area 120 includes a first cutting sub-area 122 and a second cutting sub-area 124; the second cutting area 130 includes a third cutting sub-area 132 and a fourth cutting sub-area 134; the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132 are respectively arranged on the first board surface, and the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134 are respectively arranged on the second board surface; the first cutting sub-area 122 is arranged correspondingly to the second cutting sub-area 124, and the third cutting sub-area 132 is arranged correspondingly to the fourth cutting sub-area 134; the projection of the first cutting sub-area from the first board surface to the second board surface at least partially overlaps with the second cutting sub-area, and the projection of the third cutting sub-area from the first board surface to the second board surface at least partially overlaps with the fourth cutting sub-area.
[0061] The first plate surface of the substrate 10 is opposite to the second plate surface, and the first plate surface and the second plate surface of the substrate 10 are both the sides with the largest area. The first plate surface of the substrate 10 is provided with a first cutting sub-area 122, and the second plate surface of the substrate 10 is provided with a second cutting sub-area 124. The first cutting sub-area 122 and the second cutting sub-area 124 can be cutting sub-areas of the same size and shape. The first cutting sub-area 122 and the second cutting sub-area 124 can be completely symmetrically arranged on the substrate 10. In one example, the projection of the first cutting sub-area 122 from the first plate surface to the second plate surface at least partially overlaps with the second cutting sub-area 124.
[0062] The first board surface of the substrate 10 is provided with a third cutting sub-area 132, and the second board surface of the substrate 10 is provided with a fourth cutting sub-area 134. The third cutting sub-area 132 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134 can be cutting sub-areas with the same size and shape. The third cutting sub-area 132 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134 can be completely symmetrically arranged on the substrate 10. In one example, the projection of the third cutting sub-area 132 from the first board surface to the second board surface at least partially overlaps with the fourth cutting sub-area 134.
[0063] By arranging the first cutting sub-area 122, the third cutting sub-area 132 and the tab area 110 on the first plate surface, and the tab area 110 is located between the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132, by coating the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132 with the second slurry layer 220, the tab area 110 does not need to be coated with slurry, and coating the first slurry layer 210 on the substrate 10 that is not in the first cutting sub-area, the third cutting sub-area and the tab area, so that the slurry thickness in the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132 is relatively thin, Grooves are formed in the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 respectively, which reduces loss, reduces slurry waste, and reduces costs. In addition, except for the pole ear area 110 of the first plate surface, other areas on the substrate 10 are coated with slurry, which ensures the energy density of the battery. When cutting the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132, the force is evenly applied and the cut surface is smooth, avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuit of the battery and battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0064] For another example, by setting the second cutting sub-area 124, the fourth cutting sub-area 134 and the tab area 110 on the second plate surface, and the tab area 110 is located between the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134, by coating the second slurry layer 220 on the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134, the tab area 110 does not need to be coated with slurry, and the first slurry layer 210 is coated on the substrate 10 that is not in the second cutting sub-area, the fourth cutting sub-area and the tab area, so that the slurry thickness at the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134 is relatively thick. The second cutting area 130 and the fourth cutting area 134 are thin, and groove shapes are formed in the second cutting area 130 and the fourth cutting area respectively, which reduces the loss, reduces the waste of slurry, and reduces the cost. In addition, except for the pole ear area 110 of the second plate surface, other areas on the substrate 10 are coated with slurry, which ensures the energy density of the battery. When cutting the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134, the force can be uniform and the cut surface is smooth, avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuit of the battery and cause battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0065] In one embodiment, the width of the first cutting area 120 is less than or equal to the width of the tab area 110 , and the width of the second cutting area 130 is less than or equal to the width of the tab area 110 .
[0066] By setting the width of the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 , the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 can meet the coating operation of the second slurry layer 220 , and at the same time can reduce the loss of the pole piece, reduce the waste of the pole piece material, and reduce the cost.
[0067] In one embodiment, the second slurry layer 220 is disposed in the first cutting sub-region 122 and the second slurry layer 220 is disposed in the third cutting sub-region 132 ; and / or the second slurry layer 220 is disposed in the second cutting sub-region 124 and the second slurry layer 220 is disposed in the fourth cutting sub-region 134 .
[0068] For example, on the first board surface of the substrate 10, the second slurry layer 220 is set only in the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132; on the second board surface of the substrate 10, except for the area before the pole ear area 110, the remaining areas (such as the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134) are all provided with the first slurry layer 210, thereby forming a single-sided slurry groove shape on the substrate 10, simplifying the process steps of coating the slurry, ensuring the energy density of the battery, and the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132 can be cut evenly, and the cut surface is smooth, avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuit of the battery and battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0069] For another example, on the first board surface of the substrate 10, except for the area before the tab area 110, the remaining areas (such as the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132) are all provided with a first slurry layer 210; on the second board surface of the substrate 10, only the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134 are provided with a second slurry layer 220, thereby forming a single-sided slurry groove shape on the substrate 10, simplifying the process steps of coating the slurry, ensuring the energy density of the battery, and enabling the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134 to be cut with uniform force and a smooth cut surface, thereby avoiding large particles falling off and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuits in the battery and battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0070] For example, Figure 1 and Figure 2 As shown, on the first board surface of the substrate 10, a second slurry layer 220 is set for the first cutting sub-area 122 and the third cutting sub-area 132; on the second board surface of the substrate 10, a second slurry layer 220 is set for the second cutting sub-area 124 and the fourth cutting sub-area 134, thereby forming a double-sided slurry groove shape on the substrate 10, so that the corresponding cutting sub-areas can be evenly stressed during cutting, further improving the flatness of the cut surface, avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuits in the battery and cause battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0071] In one embodiment, the tab region 110 is located between one third and one third to two thirds of the total length from the first cutting region 120 to the second cutting region 130 .
[0072] By setting the pole ear area 110 between one third and one third to two thirds of the total length from the first cutting area 120 to the second cutting area 130, that is, the cutting position can be set between one third and one third to two thirds of the total length of the two adjacent pole ear areas 110, thereby broadening the selectivity of the position setting of the cutting position and achieving the custom setting of the cutting position according to the set range.

[0075] Among them, the transmission mechanism 30 can be used to support the substrate 10, and the transmission mechanism 30 can also be used to drive the substrate 10 to move. Exemplarily, the transmission mechanism 30 includes a support table, and a reference roller is arranged on the support table, and the substrate 10 is driven to move by the rotation of the reference roller. The preset electrode coating data includes but is not limited to the position and size of the cutting area and the position and size of the pole ear area 110. The first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 are arranged on the substrate 10 at intervals, and the pole ear area 110 is arranged between the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130.
[0076] The feeding module 40 can be used to transfer the slurry so as to coat the slurry on the corresponding position of the substrate 10. For example, the feeding module 40 may include a first container and a pump body, wherein the first container is connected to the pump body, the first container is used to store the slurry, and the pump body is used to drive the slurry to be transferred to the corresponding position on the substrate 10 so as to coat the corresponding position on the substrate 10.
[0077] For example, the operator can input preset electrode coating data according to the model of the corresponding battery. Based on the control module 50 being electrically connected to the transmission mechanism 30, the control module 50 obtains the preset electrode coating data, generates a first control signal according to the preset electrode coating data, and transmits the first control signal to the transmission mechanism 30, and the transmission mechanism 30 drives the substrate 10 to move at a preset rate according to the first control signal.

Specifically, the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to coat the first cutting area 120 with the slurry of the second thickness, thereby forming a second slurry layer 220 in the first cutting area 120; the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to coat the first thickness of slurry between the first cutting area 120 and the pole lug area 110, thereby forming a first slurry layer 210 between the first cutting area 120 and the pole lug area 110; the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to be closed, thereby forming a non-coating layer in the pole lug area 110; the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to coat the first thickness of slurry between the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110, thereby forming a first slurry layer 210 between the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110; the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to be closed, thereby forming a non-coating layer in the pole lug area 110; the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to coat the first thickness of slurry between the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110, thereby forming a first slurry layer 210 between the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110; the control The module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to apply a second thickness of slurry to the second cutting area 130, thereby forming a second slurry layer 220 in the second cutting area 130; based on the first thickness being set greater than the second thickness, the slurry thickness at the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 is thinner, so that the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 form a groove shape. Since the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 are coated with slurry, the energy density of the battery is guaranteed, and the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 can be evenly stressed during cutting, and the cut surface is smooth, thereby avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuits in the battery and cause battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0079] In one embodiment, the control module 50 is also configured to control the feeding module 40 to output slurry based on a first flow rate when the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to the first cutting area 120; control the feeding module 40 to output slurry based on a second flow rate when the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to between the first cutting area 120 and the tab area 110; control the feeding module 40 to close when the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to the tab area 110; control the feeding module 40 to output slurry based on the second flow rate when the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to between the second cutting area 130 and the tab area 110; control the feeding module 40 to output slurry based on the first flow rate when the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to the second cutting area 130; and control the feeding module 40 to output slurry based on the first flow rate; the first flow rate is less than the second flow rate.
[0080] For example, the feeding module 40 may be disposed above the transmission mechanism 30 , and the output end of the feeding module 40 faces the substrate 10 on the transmission mechanism 30 . The substrate 10 moves with the drive of the transmission mechanism 30. When it is detected that the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to the first cutting area 120, the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to output the slurry to the first cutting area 120 based on the first flow rate, thereby forming a second slurry layer 220 in the first cutting area 120; when it is detected that the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to between the first cutting area 120 and the pole lug area 110, the feeding module 40 is controlled to output the slurry to between the first cutting area 120 and the pole lug area 110 based on the second flow rate, thereby forming a first slurry layer 210 between the first cutting area 120 and the pole lug area 110; when it is detected that the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to the pole lug area 110, the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to be closed, thereby forming a non-coating layer in the pole lug area 110; when it is detected that the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to between the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110, the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to output the slurry to the second cutting area 130 and the pole lug area 110. The slurry is output between the area 130 and the lug area 110 based on the second flow rate, and then a first slurry layer 210 is formed between the second cutting area 130 and the lug area 110; when it is detected that the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponds to the second cutting area 130, the control module 50 controls the feeding module 40 to output the slurry to the second cutting area 130 based on the first flow rate; and then a second slurry layer 220 is formed in the second cutting area 130; based on the first flow rate being set to be less than the second flow rate, the thickness of the second slurry layer 220 is less than the thickness of the first slurry layer 210, that is, the slurry thickness at the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 is thinner, so that the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 form a groove shape, and the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 can be uniformly stressed when cutting, and the cut surface is smooth, avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuit of the battery and battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.
[0081] In one embodiment, Figure 4 As shown, the pole piece manufacturing control system also includes a position detection module 60, which is connected to the control module 50; the position detection module 60 is configured to detect the moving distance data of the substrate 10 and transmit the moving distance data to the control module 50; the control module 50 is also configured to control the opening and closing of the feeding module 40 and the slurry output flow rate according to the moving distance data.
[0082] The position detection module 60 may be used to detect the moving distance data of the substrate 10 . For example, the position detection module 60 may include a displacement sensor.
[0083] Based on the control module 50 connected to the position detection module 60, when the transmission mechanism 30 drives the substrate 10 to move, the position detection module 60 detects the moving distance of the substrate 10, obtains the corresponding moving distance data, and transmits the moving distance data to the control module 50, and then the control module 50 controls the working state of the feeding module 40 according to the moving distance data. For example, according to the moving distance data, when it is determined that the substrate 10 moves to the first cutting area 120 or the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponding to the first cutting area 120, the feeding module 40 is controlled to start, and the feeding module 40 is controlled to output the slurry based on the first flow rate to form the second slurry layer 220 in the first cutting area 120 or the second cutting area 130. For another example, according to the moving distance data, when it is determined that the substrate 10 moves to the output end of the feeding module 40 corresponding to the tab area 110, the feeding module 40 is controlled to be closed to form a non-coating layer in the tab area 110. The position detection module 60 detects the moving distance of the substrate 10 in real time, and then accurately controls the output size of the slurry according to the movement of the substrate 10, so as to accurately form the first slurry layer 210 and the second slurry layer 220 at the corresponding positions of the substrate 10, thereby improving the accuracy of slurry coating.
[0084] In one embodiment, Figure 5 As shown, the feeding module 40 includes a pipeline assembly 410 and a valve body assembly 420; the valve body assembly 420 is arranged on the pipeline assembly 410; the valve body assembly 420 is connected to the control module 50; the control module 50 is also configured to control the opening and closing and valve opening degree of the valve body assembly 420 according to the moving distance data.

The valve body assembly 420 is disposed on the pipeline assembly 410, and the valve body assembly 420 is connected to the pipeline assembly 410 in an open state.
[0086] For example, based on the control module 50 connected to the valve body assembly 420, the control module 50 determines that the substrate 10 moves to the first cutting area 120 or the output end of the pipeline assembly 410 corresponding to the first cutting area 120 according to the moving distance data, and the control valve body assembly 420 is started, and the control valve body assembly 420 is opened based on the first preset opening, and then the pipeline assembly 410 outputs the slurry based on the first flow rate to form the second slurry layer 220 in the first cutting area 120 or the second cutting area 130. When the control module 50 determines that the substrate 10 moves to the output end of the pipeline assembly 410 corresponding to the tab area 110 according to the moving distance data, the control valve body assembly 420 is closed to form a non-coating layer in the tab area 110. When the control module 50 determines that the substrate 10 moves to the output end of the corresponding pipeline assembly 410 between the first cutting area 120 and the tab area 110 or between the second cutting area 130 and the tab area 110 according to the moving distance data, the control valve body assembly 420 is started, and the control valve body assembly 420 is opened based on the second preset opening, and then the pipeline assembly 410 outputs the slurry based on the second flow rate to form the first slurry layer 210 between the first cutting area 120 and the tab area 110 or between the second cutting area 130 and the tab area 110. The moving distance of the substrate 10 is detected in real time by the position detection module 60, and then according to the movement of the substrate 10, the opening and closing and the valve opening degree of the control valve body assembly 420 are controlled to achieve precise control of the output of the slurry, thereby achieving precise formation of the first slurry layer 210 and the second slurry layer 220 at the corresponding position of the substrate 10, thereby improving the accuracy of slurry coating. In addition, groove shapes are formed in the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 respectively, so that the first cutting area 120 and the second cutting area 130 can be evenly stressed during cutting, and the cut surface is smooth, thereby avoiding large particles and burrs at the cutting position, which may cause internal short circuits in the battery and battery combustion, thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.

By coating the slurry on all areas except the lug area, the energy density of the battery can be ensured; by reducing the slurry thickness in the first cutting area and the second cutting area, grooves are formed in the first cutting area and the second cutting area. When the first cutting area and the second cutting area are cut, the cutting surface is smooth, avoiding the formation of burrs and large particles on the cutting surface and material falling, avoiding the formation of corresponding battery diaphragm melt holes, resulting in battery short circuit, battery low voltage or spontaneous combustion, etc., thereby improving the safety and reliability of the battery.

Moreover, Figure 8 At least part of the steps may include multiple sub-steps or multiple stages. These sub-steps or stages are not necessarily executed at the same time, but can be executed at different times. The execution order of these sub-steps or stages is not necessarily sequential, but can be executed in turn or alternately with other steps or at least part of the sub-steps or stages of other steps.
