Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention relates to the field of lithium battery manufacturing technology, and in particular to an automatic adhesive application system for lithium batteries. Background Technology
[0002] With the development of microelectronics technology in the 20th century, miniaturized devices have become increasingly common, placing high demands on power supplies. Lithium batteries subsequently entered a stage of large-scale practical application. The earliest application was of lithium-ion primary batteries, used in pacemakers. Due to the extremely low self-discharge rate and very gradual discharge voltage of lithium-ion batteries, long-term implantation of pacemakers became possible. Lithium-manganese batteries generally have a nominal voltage higher than 3.0 volts, making them more suitable as integrated circuit power supplies and widely used in computers, calculators, and watches. Lithium-ion batteries are widely used in mobile phones, laptops, power tools, electric vehicles, backup power supplies for streetlights, navigation lights, and small household appliances, representing the largest application group. Lithium-ion batteries, with their unique performance advantages, have been widely used in portable electronic devices such as laptops, cameras, and mobile communications. High-capacity lithium-ion batteries have begun trials in electric vehicles and are expected to become one of the main power sources for electric vehicles in the 21st century, with applications also in satellites, aerospace, and energy storage. This is driven by energy scarcity and global environmental pressures. Lithium batteries are widely used in the electric vehicle industry. In particular, the emergence of lithium iron phosphate batteries has further promoted the development and application of the lithium battery industry. As is well known, lithium batteries need to be coated with adhesive during daily use. However, the existing adhesive coating systems are often limited in use due to low efficiency and high failure rate. Therefore, further improvements are needed. Summary of the Invention
