Description
Technical Field
[0001] The invention relates to the technical field of cathode roller processing and manufacturing, and in particular to a conductive copper plate coating tool and a process thereof. Background Art
[0002] With the rapid development of new energy and electronic circuit industries, my country's quality requirements for electrolytic copper foil are also constantly increasing. The cathode roller is the core component in the manufacturing process of electrolytic copper foil, and its quality plays a decisive role in the quality of the generated copper foil.
[0003] The cathode roller is a key equipment in the production of electrolytic copper foil. The principle is to generate electrolytic copper foil by electrolytic deposition of copper ions on the surface of its roller cathode. The uniformity of the current density on the roller surface determines the quality of the electrolytic copper foil. Therefore, ensuring that the current can reach the roller surface smoothly and whether the current can be evenly distributed on the roller surface is the main problem faced at this stage.
[0004] The roller surface structure of the cathode roller is composed of steel-copper-titanium from the inside to the outside. The copper layer is used as a conductive layer, which directly determines the uniformity and consistency of the current on the roller surface. At present, the copper wire and copper belt can ensure the uniformity of the copper layer, but the contact with the roller surface is not tight enough, and there will be gaps in the connection between each other. Under the support of large current, the points with poor contact will generate heat and the roller surface current will be uneven. Although the composite plate can ensure the complete fit between the copper and steel layers, it has high processing requirements and the cost of the material itself is high, which has an adverse effect on production.
[0005] Chinese patent CN201588003U discloses a wire-wound cathode roller core, including a steel body, a copper body arranged outside the steel body, the copper body being a copper layer formed by tightly winding copper wire on the steel body, and the copper wire adopts a square copper wire. Due to the adoption of the above technical scheme, the utility model has the advantages of low production cost, smooth surface of the cathode roller core, uniform thickness of the copper body and good conductivity. However, since the patent application adopts copper wire winding, the gap between the roller surface and the copper wire is too large, which has the disadvantages of easy poor contact and uneven current. Summary of the invention
[0006] In order to overcome the deficiencies of the above-mentioned prior art, the present invention provides a conductive copper plate coating tooling and a process thereof, which utilizes the pressure generated by a rolling roller through a tightening wheel to squeeze the stress-relief annealed copper plate and the roller core together, and performs drilling and tapping, and firmly connects the copper plate and the roller core together, thereby solving the problems of uneven copper layer, uneven conductivity and high cost of the cathode roller core.
[0007] A conductive copper plate coating tooling comprises a steel support frame, a connecting rib is arranged in the middle of the steel support frame, a shaft support is arranged on the top of the steel support frame, a roller core is placed on the shaft support, the copper plate is attached to the surface of the roller core, hooks are respectively arranged on both radial sides of the bottom of the steel support frame, the hooks are connected to the pull rings through a tightener, the pull rings are respectively connected to the two ends of a steel strip attached to the surface of the copper plate, and a rolling roller is placed between the copper plate and the steel strip.
[0008] The connecting ribs of the steel support frame are provided with fixing bolts.
[0009] The surface of the roller core is provided with a conical groove.
[0010] The copper plate has a length of 1 / 3 of the circumference of the outer surface of the roller core, and a V-shaped groove is arranged on the edge of the copper plate.
[0011] The rolling roller is a steel rod with a plurality of knurling patterns on its surface, which match the distance between the steel strips, and the pressing position corresponding to the steel strip is a smooth surface.
[0012] A conductive copper plate coating process, the specific steps are as follows:
[0013] Step 1: Place the welded roller core on a lathe, turn the roller surface of the roller core into a circle with a roundness of ≤0.3, and evenly turn a tapered groove with a depth of 0.1 to 0.3 mm on the surface of the turned roller core;
[0014] Step 2: Calculate the length l and width d of the copper plate according to the width L, diameter D and thickness t of the processed roller core; the length l of the copper plate = L-15 mm, the width d of the copper plate = (πD / 3)-1.5t, where L is the width of the roller core, D is the diameter of the roller core, and t is the thickness of the copper plate;
[0015] Step 3: Put the cut copper plate into a muffle furnace at a temperature of 260-280℃, keep it warm for 1-1.5 hours, perform stress relief annealing, then take it out and put it into the plate rolling machine for shape correction. The shape correction arc of the copper plate is consistent with the curvature of the roller core, and stick it to the upper surface of the roller core;
[0016] Step 4: Place the rolling roller between the copper plate and the steel strip, with the knurled position of the rolling roller in contact with the copper plate. Hang one end of the pull ring on the hook, connect the other end of the pull ring through the tensioner and hang the steel strip on the hook. Rotate the tensioner to make the steel strip close to the copper plate. After rotating the tensioner 200-240mm, drill a hole at the edge of the copper plate axially perpendicular to the roller core position. The drilling depth is 8-10mm and the drilling diameter is 4-8mm. Tap the hole and screw the copper bolt into the hole at the same time. Complete the riveting of all copper bolts in sequence. Repeat the drilling as needed.
[0017] Step 5: Repeat the method in step 4 to complete the riveting of the entire copper plate, loosen the tightener, remove the steel belt, rotate 120°, and then put the second copper plate on. The distance between the first copper plate and the second copper plate is 8-12mm. Repeat steps 3, 4, and 5 to complete the final copper plate wrapping.
[0018] The drilling in step 4 needs to keep the positions of the holes drilled staggered each time.
[0019] Compared with the prior art, the advantages of the present invention are:
[0020] Since the copper plate is used for overall covering and bonding, the consistency of the copper layer after final turning can be guaranteed to be less than 0.3mm, which greatly promotes the uniformity of current density during the conduction process.
[0021] By using a copper plate with a length of 1 / 3 of the circumference of the outer surface of the roller core, it is possible to ensure that the copper plate is in full contact with the roller core while reducing the number of welds between the copper plates, thus avoiding the problems of uneven conductivity and poor fitting caused by too many welds.
[0022] The fixing bolts on the connecting ribs of the steel support frame can prevent the roller core from swinging, thus preventing the rolling roller from sliding or moving during rotation.
[0023] The tensioner can adjust the tightness of the steel belt, thereby ensuring that the copper plate can be tightened on the surface of the roller core, providing a pre-lamination force. The rolling roller further increases the fit between the copper plate and the roller core after rolling, and is beneficial to the consistency of drilling holes with the electric drill. The knurling on the surface increases friction and avoids slipping during rotation.
[0024] Since the steel strip has a certain width, the area in contact with copper is increased during the tightening process, thus avoiding damage to the copper layer.
[0025] Compared with the prior art, the present invention utilizes the pressure generated by the rolling roller through the tightener to squeeze the stress-relieved annealed copper plate and the roller core together, and performs drilling and tapping, and firmly connects the copper plate and the roller core together through screws, which not only solves the connection problem between the copper plate and the steel plate, but also avoids the problem of uneven conductivity, and effectively reduces the production cost and cycle. It has a simple structure and a convenient and practical operation method. It not only solves the problem of insufficient contact between the copper plate and the roller surface, and between the copper strips, but also reduces the processing difficulty and material cost, and finally achieves a copper layer uniformity of less than 0.3 mm, which exceeds the requirement of current density consistency in copper foil production.
