Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the technical field of lithium battery recycling, and in particular to a cleaning device and method for recycling lithium battery graphite negative electrode sheets. Background Art
[0002] Graphite materials used in lithium battery anodes are widely used in new energy vehicles and energy storage batteries due to their stable performance, safety, environmental friendliness, and low price. In recent years, the widespread use of lithium batteries has led to a significant increase in production. However, during the production of battery anodes, both during coating and during punching, scraps are generated. Failure to effectively recycle these scraps results in a significant waste of resources.
[0003] The scraps generated during electrode processing are characterized by the absence of electrolyte refilling and overcharge / discharge cycles, allowing the active materials on the electrodes to maintain their initial performance. Exploring an efficient and environmentally friendly scrap recycling method and device is both practical and economically viable.
[0004] Most of the graphite negative electrodes of lithium batteries use water-soluble adhesives. Under the stirring and moving friction of the stirring rod, the graphite will fall off easily; but for those electrodes that are not stirred and experience moving friction, most of the graphite in the negative electrodes is difficult to fall off naturally, and the copper foil in the electrodes cannot be completely washed out.
[0005] In order to clean the copper foil, the stirring workload is often increased, which can easily cause excessive stirring and friction in the electrode, resulting in the copper foil in the electrode being broken and copper powder being mixed into the graphite.
[0006] Stirring and rubbing each electrode, shortening the washing time, reducing the breakage of copper foil, and cleaning the copper foil are important contents of the graphite negative electrode scrap recycling device. Summary of the Invention

[0017] A cleaning method for recycling graphite negative electrode sheets of lithium batteries comprises the following steps:
[0018] S1: Feeding
[0019] The cleaning tank is filled with hot water, the first, second and third cross-shaped stirring wheels are driven to rotate counterclockwise, the conveying net chain rotates counterclockwise, the material is fed between the first and second cross-shaped stirring wheels, and the fed material is successively fed by the second and third cross-shaped stirring wheels rotating counterclockwise, and is uniformly fed to the outer end of the third cross-shaped stirring wheel. The conveying net chain rotates counterclockwise, and the material is retained between the outer end of the third cross-shaped stirring wheel and the discharge end of the cleaning tank.
[0020] S2: cleaning state A
[0021] The first cross-shaped stirring wheel is driven to rotate counterclockwise, the second and third cross-shaped stirring wheels are driven to rotate clockwise, and the conveying net chain rotates counterclockwise. The first cross-shaped stirring wheel prevents the conveying net chain from rotating and carries the material out;
[0022] The material at the outer end of the third cross-shaped stirring wheel is successively fed by the second and third cross-shaped stirring wheels, and is uniformly fed back to the position between the first and second cross-shaped stirring wheels under the action of the stirring wheels and the conveying net chain;

The material is successively fed by the second and third cross-shaped stirring wheels, and is uniformly fed to the outer end of the third cross-shaped stirring wheel under the action of the stirring wheels and the conveying net chain;
[0025] S4: continuous cleaning

[0027] S5: discharging
[0028] Drive the first "cross" stirring wheel to rotate counterclockwise, the second "cross" stirring wheel and the third "cross" stirring wheel to rotate counterclockwise, and the conveyor network chain to rotate clockwise. Under the action of the stirring wheel and the conveyor network chain, the material between the counterclockwise rotating first "cross" stirring wheel and the second "cross" stirring wheel is evenly sent to the outer end of the third "cross" stirring wheel and sinks on the conveyor network chain. The clockwise rotating conveyor network chain force brings the material out of the cleaning pool and falls into the copper foil collection box. The sewage is filtered and discharged through the sewage discharge pipe. The graphite is discharged through the graphite collection groove and falls to the top of the graphite conveyor belt and is transported to the graphite collection box for collection.
[0029] Compared with the prior art, the present invention has the following beneficial effects:
[0030] In the present invention, during the cleaning process, the electrode in the cleaning pool is continuously moved, and the moving electrode is continuously stirred by each stirring wheel and rubs with the conveyor mesh chain, so that the graphite falls off and sinks under the conveyor mesh chain, and the cleaned copper foil remains above the mesh chain. This method allows each electrode to be stirred and rubbed with the mesh chain as evenly as possible, so that the graphite on the electrode falls off cleanly, and after cleaning is completed, the graphite, wastewater and copper foil can be well separated.

DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0047] To make the objectives, technical solutions, and advantages of the embodiments of the present invention more clear, the technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are only part of the embodiments of the present invention, not all of the embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present invention, all other embodiments obtained by ordinary technicians in this field without making creative efforts shall fall within the scope of protection of the present invention.
[0048] Example 1

[0053] The cleaned and fallen graphite falls into the graphite collecting groove 4, and the graphite can be discharged from the graphite discharge port 401 through the rotation of the conveying screw 402.
[0054] The automatic blocking mechanism comprises a blocking plate 409 rotatably arranged, a gear 403 fixed on the rotating shaft of the blocking plate 409, a horizontal sliding block 404 slidably arranged above the graphite discharge port 401 through a slide rail, a rack 405 fixed at the bottom end of the horizontal sliding block 404, the rack 405 being engaged with the gear 403, a threaded sleeve 406 fixed at the top end of the horizontal sliding block 404, a threaded rod 407 arranged in the threaded sleeve 406, and the threaded rod 407 being driven to rotate by a second rotating motor 408.
[0055] When the second rotating motor 408 drives the threaded rod 407 to rotate, the threaded sleeve 406 and the horizontal sliding block 404 can be horizontally moved, and the rack 405 can be horizontally moved, so that the blocking plate 409 can be rotated through the engagement between the rack 405 and the gear 403, thereby achieving the purpose of automatically opening and closing the graphite discharge port 401.
[0056] Embodiment 3
[0057] Reference Figure 1-14The difference between this embodiment and embodiment 2 is that a graphite conveyor belt 6 is provided on the side of the cleaning water tank 1 close to the graphite discharge port 401, and a graphite collecting box 7 is placed on one side of the graphite conveyor belt 6. The graphite is discharged through the graphite collecting groove 4 and falls to the top of the graphite conveyor belt 6, and is transported to the graphite collecting box 7 for collection.
[0058] Among them, the end of the conveying screw 402 away from the graphite discharge port 401 is fixed with a first pulley 807, and multiple first pulleys 807 are connected in sequence by belts. A second pulley 808 is coaxially arranged on one of the first pulleys 807. A third pulley 8 is fixed to the mounting shaft of the first "cross" stirring wheel 301. A rotating fourth pulley 801 is also installed on the outer wall of the cleaning pool 1. A belt is provided between the outer sides of the third pulley 8 and the fourth pulley 801. The outer wall of the cleaning pool 1 is also provided with a bracket. A fifth pulley 802 is rotatably mounted, a polygonal latch 803 being fixed to the side of the fifth pulley 802 close to the fourth pulley 801, a polygonal sleeve 805 being provided between the fourth pulley 801 and the fifth pulley 802, the polygonal sleeve 805 being rotatably mounted on a bracket driven by a cylinder 804, the polygonal latch 803 extending into the polygonal sleeve 805, a friction disk 806 being fixed to one end of the polygonal sleeve 805, and a belt being sleeved between the fifth pulley 802 and the outer side of the second pulley 808;
[0059] When the friction disk 806 is shortened and brought into contact with the fourth pulley 801 through the cylinder 804, the fourth pulley 801 can drive the fifth pulley 802 to rotate, and then drive the second pulley 808 to rotate, and then drive multiple first pulleys 807 to rotate synchronously, thereby driving the conveying screw 402 to rotate, and the graphite can be discharged from the graphite discharge port 401.
[0060] Among them, a bracket is provided on one side of the cleaning pool 1, and a copper foil collection box 201 is placed on the top of the bracket. Usually, for strength considerations, the conveying mesh chain 2 generally uses thicker mesh rods 203. The wider the conveying mesh chain 2, the thicker the mesh rods 203 need to be. Relatively speaking, the thickness of the mesh belt 202 is thinner, and the thickness of the mesh chain part set outside the mesh rod 203 is larger. The conveying mesh chain 2 is prone to form depressions between adjacent mesh rods 203 (refer to Figure 13 ), the electrode in the depression will remain motionless during stirring and cleaning, and will not move and rub against the conveyor chain 2, causing the copper foil of this part of the electrode to not be cleaned clean, thereby affecting the overall de-powdering effect of the electrode. For this reason, the conveyor chain 2 includes a mesh belt 202 and a mesh rod 203. The thickness of the mesh belt 202 at the position of the mesh rod 203 is the same as the thickness at other positions, so that the mesh belt 202 between adjacent mesh rods 203 will not be depressed, and the overall surface is relatively flat, so that the electrode will not be unable to be stirred, the copper foil is cleaned more completely, and the overall de-powdering effect of the electrode is better.
[0061] A sewage discharge pipe 5 is installed at the bottom end of the cleaning pool 1, and a filter is provided in the sewage discharge pipe 5.
[0062] A cleaning method for recycling graphite negative electrode sheets of lithium batteries comprises the following steps:

[0067] After being stirred and fed in reverse by the third cross-shaped stirring wheel 303 and the second cross-shaped stirring wheel 302, the materials at the outer end of the third cross-shaped stirring wheel 303 are evenly fed back to the position between the first cross-shaped stirring wheel 301 and the second cross-shaped stirring wheel 302 under the action of the stirring wheels and the conveyor network chain 2.

The material is stirred and delivered successively through the second and third cross-shaped stirring wheels 302, 303. Under the action of the stirring wheels and the conveyor network chain 2, the material between the first and second cross-shaped stirring wheels 301, 302 is evenly delivered to the outer end of the third cross-shaped stirring wheel 303.

The clockwise rotating conveying network chain 2 relays the material out of the cleaning pool 1 and falls into the copper foil collection box 201. The sewage is filtered and discharged through the sewage discharge pipe 5. The graphite is discharged through the graphite collection groove 4 and falls to the top of the graphite conveyor belt 6, and is transported to the graphite collection box 7 for collection.
