For those skilled in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0037] The specific structure of the battery pole piece double-layer coating system according to the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings. Figures 1-2 The specific structure of the battery pole piece double-layer coating system according to the embodiments of the present application will be described below with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0038] The present application discloses a kind of battery pole piece double-layer coating system, as Figure 1 As shown in the drawings, the battery pole piece double-layer coating system of the present embodiment includes back roll 1, coating spray head 2, first supply module 3, second supply module 4 and third supply module 5, back roll 1 is used to carry battery current collector, and coating spray head 2 includes isolated first spraying channel, second spraying channel and third spraying channel. First supply module 3 is located upstream of coating spray head 2, and is used to provide spraying slurry to the first spraying channel. Second supply module 4 and first supply module 3 are arranged side by side, and second supply module 4 is used to provide spraying slurry to the second spraying channel. Third supply module 5 is arranged side by side with first supply module 3 and second supply module 4, and is used to provide ceramic slurry to the third spraying channel.
[0039] It can be understood that when spraying negative pole piece, first start second supply module 4, close first supply module 3 and third supply module 5, and second supply module 4 provides spraying raw material into one spraying channel of coating spray head 2 to realize one spraying of negative pole piece, and when one spraying is carried out for a distance and is detected to be qualified, first supply module 3 is started again to provide spraying slurry into one spraying channel of coating spray head 2 to realize double-layer simultaneous spraying of negative pole piece.
[0040] And when spraying positive pole piece, first start second supply module 4 and third supply module 5, close first supply module 3, and second supply module 4 and third supply module 5 provide spraying slurry into second and third spraying channels of coating spray head 2 respectively to realize one spraying of positive pole piece and ceramic edge spraying, and when one spraying is carried out for a distance and is detected to be qualified, first supply module 3 is started again to provide spraying slurry into first spraying channel of coating spray head 2 to realize double-layer simultaneous spraying of positive pole piece.
[0041] In summary, the battery pole piece double-layer coating system of the embodiment can realize synchronous and efficient continuous spraying of double-layer coating in the production process, has high coating consistency and stability, is easy to control in the production process, and has low manufacturing cost. In the process of processing the positive pole piece, the ceramic edge is formed at the same time when the double-layer coating is formed, so that the positive pole piece does not need to be additionally processed in actual work, and the production and manufacturing process of the positive pole piece is simplified.
[0042] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 The first supply module 3 includes a first transfer tank 31, a first diaphragm pump 32, a first buffer tank 35, a first delivery pump 36 and a first capsule filter 37 connected in sequence. The first buffer tank 35 and the first delivery pump 36 are located on a first moving platform 38, and the first transfer tank 31 is in parallel. It can be understood that the first transfer tank 31 is used to store the spraying raw material, and the first transfer tank 31 is in parallel, so that when the spraying raw material in one first transfer tank 31 is about to run out, another first transfer tank 31 can be directly switched to output the spraying raw material, realizing non-stop output of the first supply module 3 and ensuring uniformity of the supply. The first capsule filter 37 can improve the cleanliness and uniformity of the spraying raw material, thereby indirectly improving the coating quality.
[0043] It should be noted that if the first diaphragm pump 32 is directly used to send the spraying raw material into the coating nozzle 2, due to the poor accuracy and long transportation route of the first diaphragm pump 32, the supply consistency is poor, the spraying raw material speed is slow, and the supply is uneven. In the embodiment, the first buffer tank 35 is added to temporarily store the spraying slurry, and the first buffer tank 35 stably supplies the first delivery pump 36 through liquid level control. The first delivery pump 36 delivers the slurry in the first buffer tank 35 to the coating nozzle 2, which not only improves the supply speed of the spraying raw material, but also significantly improves the uniformity of the spraying raw material, thereby ensuring the pole piece coating quality. In addition, the first buffer tank 35 and the first delivery pump 36 are located on the first moving platform 38, which can conveniently move the first buffer tank 35 and the first delivery pump 36, thereby facilitating the splicing and adjustment of the entire system.
[0044] In some more specific embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 A first de-ironer 33 and a first dynamic filter 34 are arranged between the first buffer tank 35 and the first diaphragm pump 32. Thus, the first de-ironer 33 and the first dynamic filter 34 can further filter and remove ferromagnetic substances and agglomerated particles in the spraying slurry, ensuring the cleanliness and uniformity of the spraying slurry delivered to the coating nozzle 2, thereby improving the pole piece coating quality. Of course, it should be additionally noted that in other embodiments of the present application, other types of filtering devices can be added between the first buffer tank 35 and the first diaphragm pump 32 according to actual needs, and are not limited to the above description.
[0045] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 Fig. 2, the second supply module 4 comprises a second transfer tank 41, a second diaphragm pump 42, a second buffer tank 45, a second delivery pump 46 and a second capsule filter 47 connected in sequence, wherein: the second buffer tank 45 and the second delivery pump 46 are located on a second moving platform 48; and the second transfer tank 41 is in parallel. It can be understood that the second transfer tank 41 is used to store the spraying raw material, and the second transfer tank 41 is in parallel, so that when the spraying raw material in one second transfer tank 41 is about to run out, another second transfer tank 41 can be directly switched to output the spraying raw material, realizing non-stop output of the second supply module 4 and ensuring the uniformity of the supply. The second capsule filter 47 can improve the cleanliness and uniformity of the spraying raw material, thereby indirectly improving the coating quality.
[0046] It should be noted that if the second diaphragm pump 42 is directly used to send the spraying raw material into the coating nozzle 2, due to the poor precision and long transportation route of the second diaphragm pump 42, the supply consistency is poor, the spraying raw material speed is slow, and the supply is uneven. In the present embodiment, the second buffer tank 45 is additionally provided to temporarily store the spraying slurry, and the second buffer tank 45 is used to stably supply the second delivery pump 46 through liquid level control. The use of the second delivery pump 46 to deliver the slurry in the second buffer tank 45 to the coating nozzle 2 not only improves the supply speed of the spraying raw material, but also significantly improves the uniformity of the spraying raw material, thereby ensuring the quality of the pole piece coating. In addition, the first buffer tank 35 and the second delivery pump 46 are located on the second moving platform 48, which can facilitate the movement of the second buffer tank 45 and the second delivery pump 46, thereby facilitating the connection and adjustment of the entire system.
[0047] In some more specific embodiments, as shown in Figure 1 Fig. 3, a second iron remover 43 and a second dynamic filter 44 are provided between the second buffer tank 45 and the second diaphragm pump 42. Thus, the second iron remover 43 and the second dynamic filter 44 are additionally provided to further filter and remove ferromagnetic substances and agglomerated particles in the spraying slurry, ensuring the cleanliness and uniformity of the spraying slurry delivered to the coating nozzle 2, thereby improving the quality of the pole piece coating. Of course, it should be additionally noted that in other embodiments of the present application, other types of filtering devices can be added between the second buffer tank 45 and the second diaphragm pump 42 according to actual needs, and are not limited to the above description.
[0048] In some embodiments, as shown in Figure 1As shown, the third supply module 5 includes a third buffer tank 51, a third delivery pump 52 and a third capsule filter 53 connected in sequence, and the third buffer tank 51 and the third delivery pump 52 are located on the third moving platform 54. It can be understood that the added third buffer tank 51 can temporarily store the spraying slurry, the liquid level control of the third buffer tank 51 can stably supply the third delivery pump 52, and the use of the third delivery pump 52 to deliver the slurry in the third buffer tank 51 to the coating nozzle 2 can not only improve the supply speed of the spraying raw material, but also significantly improve the uniformity of the spraying raw material, thereby ensuring the quality of the pole piece coating. In addition, locating the third buffer tank 51 and the third delivery pump 52 on the third moving platform 54 can facilitate moving the third buffer tank 51 and the third delivery pump 52, thereby facilitating the splicing and adjustment of the entire system.
[0049] In some embodiments, as Figure 2 As shown, the battery pole piece double-layer coating system further includes a wet film detection module, a drying module, a dry film detection module and a control module. The wet film detection module is located downstream of the back roller 1 and is used to detect the quality of the wet film coating. The drying module is located downstream of the wet film detection module and is used to dry the coating. The dry film detection module is located downstream of the drying module and is used to detect the quality of the dried coating. The control module is electrically connected with the wet film detection module, the drying module, the dry film detection module, the first supply module 3, the second supply module 4, the third supply module 5 and the coating nozzle 2. It can be understood that during the actual coating process, the wet film detection module and the dry film detection module can detect the coating quality before and after drying, and the control module can adjust and control the first supply module 3, the second supply module 4, the third supply module 5 and the coating nozzle 2 according to the detection results of the wet film detection module and the dry film detection module, adjust the feeding speed of the above-mentioned three sets of supply systems, the lip gap of the coating nozzle 2 and the gap between the coating nozzle 2 and the coating back roller 1, realize closed-loop control during the coating process, and improve the consistency and stability of the coating quality.
[0050] It should be noted that the drying module can be selected according to the existing technology, the type of sensor of the wet film detection module and the dry film detection module can be selected according to the actual parameters for measuring the spraying quality, and the wet film detection module and the dry film detection module can be any one or more of a beta-ray area density detector, an X-ray area density detector and a laser thickness gauge.
[0051] It should be noted that in other embodiments of the present application, the control module can also be electrically connected with the drying module to control the drying parameters of the drying module.
[0052] Furthermore, the control module can be a microcontroller, either a single microcontroller or a system composed of multiple microcontrollers, or it can be a PLC control chip. In other words, the control module can select the actual required chip type and control logic based on the existing electrical control technology, without limiting the specific type of control module.
[0053] The following is for reference. Figures 1-2 This invention describes a specific embodiment of a battery electrode double-layer coating system.
[0054] like Figure 1 As shown, the battery electrode double-layer coating system of this embodiment includes a back roller 1, a coating nozzle 2, a first feeding module 3, a second feeding module 4, a third feeding module 5, a wet film detection module, a drying module, a dry film detection module, and a control module.

The first spraying channel is located above the second spraying channel. The first feeding module 3 is located on one side of the coating nozzle 2 and is used to supply the coating slurry to the first spraying channel. The first feeding module 3 includes a first transfer tank 31, a first diaphragm pump 32, a first iron remover 33, a first dynamic filter 34, a first buffer tank 35, a first delivery pump 36, and a first capsule filter 37 connected in sequence. The first buffer tank 35 and the first delivery pump 36 are located on a first motion platform 38. There are two first transfer tanks 31 arranged in parallel. The second feeding module 4 is arranged in parallel with the first feeding module 3 and is used to supply the coating slurry to the second spraying channel. The second feeding module 4 includes a second transfer tank 41, a second diaphragm pump 42, a second iron remover 43, a second dynamic filter 44, a second buffer tank 45, a second delivery pump 46, and a second capsule filter 47, all connected in sequence.

The third buffer tank 51 and the third delivery pump 52 are located on the third motion platform 54. The wet film detection module is located downstream of the back roller 1 and is used to detect the quality of the wet film coating. The drying module is located downstream of the wet film detection module and is used to dry the coating. The dry film detection module is located downstream of the drying module and is used to detect the quality of the dried coating. The control module is electrically connected to the wet film detection module, the drying module, the dry film detection module, the first feeding module 3, the second feeding module 4, the third feeding module 5, and the coating nozzle 2.
[0055] The beneficial effects of the battery electrode double-layer coating system in this embodiment are as follows:
[0056] Firstly, the double-layer coating can be synchronously and efficiently sprayed in the production process, the coating consistency is high and stable, the production process is easy to control, the manufacturing cost is low, and the ceramic edge is formed when the double-layer coating is formed in the process of processing the positive plate, so that the positive plate does not need to be additionally processed in actual work, and the production and manufacturing process of the positive plate is simplified.
[0057] Secondly, the first transfer tank 31 and the second transfer tank 41 are two, which realizes non-stop feeding of the first feeding module 3 and the second feeding module 4, indirectly improves the spraying efficiency and uniformity.
[0058] Thirdly, the first de-ironer 33, the first dynamic filter 34, the second de-ironer 43 and the second dynamic filter 44 can improve the cleanliness and uniformity of the coating raw material output by the first feeding module 3 and the second feeding module 4, and ensure the quality of the coating.
[0059] Fourthly, the first moving platform 38, the second moving platform 48 and the third moving platform 54 are added, which facilitates the movement of the first buffer tank 35, the second buffer tank 45 and the third buffer tank 51, and facilitates the lapping and adjustment of the whole system.
[0060] Fifthly, the control module can adjust and control the first feeding module 3, the second feeding module 4, the third feeding module 5 and the coating nozzle 2 according to the detection results of the wet film detection module and the dry film detection module, adjust the feeding speed of the above three feeding systems, the lip gap of the coating nozzle 2 and the gap between the coating nozzle 2 and the coating back roller 1, realize closed-loop control in the coating process, and improve the consistency and stability of the coating quality.
[0061] The specific process of the battery pole piece double-layer coating method of the embodiment of the application will be described below with reference to Figure 3 and Figure 4 The specific process of the battery pole piece double-layer coating method of the embodiment of the application will be described below with reference to
[0062] The application also discloses a battery pole piece double-layer coating method, which is carried out by using the battery pole piece double-layer coating system.
[0063] In the process of processing the negative pole piece, as shown in Figure 3 , the specific process is as follows:
[0064] The second feeding module 4 is started, while the first feeding module 4 and the third feeding module 5 are turned off to coat the coating and form a primary coating layer. The primary wet film parameters and primary dry film parameters of the primary coating layer are detected. Based on the primary wet film parameters and primary dry film parameters, the feeding speed of the second feeding module 4 (in actual adjustment, the second conveying pump 46) is adjusted, as are the lip gap of the second spraying channel of the coating nozzle 2 and the gap between the coating nozzle 2 and the back roller 1. After the primary coating has been completed for a certain distance and the test is qualified, the first feeding module 3 is started again to coat the coating layer simultaneously to form a double coating layer. The double dry film parameters and double dry film parameters of the double coating layer are detected. Based on the double dry film parameters and double dry film parameters, the feeding speed of the first feeding module 3 (in actual adjustment, the first conveying pump 36) is adjusted, as are the lip gap of the first spraying channel of the coating nozzle 2 and the gap between the coating nozzle 2 and the back roller 1.
[0065] In other words, when spraying the negative electrode sheet, the second feeding module 4 is started first, and the first feeding module 3 and the third feeding module 5 are turned off. The second feeding module 4 provides the spraying material into one spraying channel of the coating nozzle 2 to achieve one spraying of the negative electrode sheet. After the first spraying has gone a certain distance and passed the test, the first feeding module 3 is started again to provide the spraying slurry into one spraying channel of the coating nozzle 2 to achieve two-layer simultaneous spraying of the negative electrode sheet.
[0066] In the process of processing positive electrode sheets, such as Figure 4 As shown, specifically:
[0067] The second feeding module 4 and the third feeding module 5 are started, and the first feeding module 3 is turned off to perform coating and ceramic edge coating to form a primary coating and ceramic edge. The primary wet film parameters and primary dry film parameters of the primary coating and ceramic edge are detected. Based on the primary wet film parameters and primary dry film parameters, the feeding speed of the second feeding module 4 (in actual adjustment, the second conveying pump 46) is adjusted, as are the lip gap of the second spraying channel of the coating nozzle 2 and the gap between the second feeding module 3 and the back roller 1. After the primary spraying has been completed for a certain distance and the test is qualified, the first feeding module 3 is started again to perform coating to form a double-layer coating. The double-layer dry film parameters and double-layer dry film parameters of the double coating are detected. Based on the double-layer dry film parameters and double-layer dry film parameters, the feeding speed of the first feeding module 3 (in actual adjustment, the first conveying pump 36) is adjusted, as are the lip gap of the first spraying channel of the coating nozzle 2 and the gap between the coating nozzle 2 and the back roller 1.
[0068] That is to say, when spraying the positive electrode sheet, the second feeding module 4 and the third feeding module 5 are first started, the first feeding module 3 is closed, the second feeding module 4 and the third feeding module 5 respectively provide the spraying slurry into the second and third spraying channels of the coating spray head 2 to realize the first spraying of the positive electrode sheet and the spraying of the ceramic edge, and when the first spraying is detected to be qualified for a distance, the first feeding module 3 is started to provide the spraying slurry into the first spraying channel of the coating spray head 2 to realize the double-layer simultaneous spraying of the positive electrode sheet.
[0069] It should be noted that, in the process of processing the positive electrode sheet or the negative electrode sheet, the feedback data of the longitudinal and transverse surface densities of the first coating and the double-layer coating can be obtained through the first wet film parameter, the first dry film parameter, the double-layer dry film parameter, and the double-layer dry film parameter, so that the feeding speed of the first feeding module 3, the lip gap of the first spraying channel of the coating spray head 2, the gap between the first feeding module 3 and the back roller 1, the feeding speed of the second feeding module 4, the lip gap of the second spraying channel of the coating spray head 2, and the gap between the second feeding module 4 and the back roller 1 can be automatically adjusted online according to the feedback data to realize the closed-loop control of the longitudinal and transverse surface densities of the coating.
[0070] In some embodiments, the coating quality ratio of the first coating and the double-layer coating is 1:9-9:1. In the actual spraying process, the coating quality of the first coating and the double-layer coating can be selected according to actual needs, and is not limited by the embodiments.
