DETAILED DESCRIPTION

[0029] The present invention is further described in detail below in conjunction with the accompanying drawings.

[0030] This specific embodiment is merely an explanation of the present invention and is not a limitation of the present invention. After reading this specification, those skilled in the art may make non-creative modifications to the present embodiment as needed. However, as long as they are within the scope of the claims of the present invention, they are protected by the patent law.

[0031] like Figures 1 to 7As shown, a battery powder drying line includes a feeding assembly 1, a first manipulator 2, a first transfer device 3, a drying chamber 5, a cooling chamber, a second transfer device 10, a second manipulator 11, a collecting device 12, a tray return transport line 13 and a powder transport line 14, wherein the drying chamber 5, the tray return transport line 13 and the powder transport line 14 are arranged in parallel, the tray return transport line 13 is arranged between the drying chamber 5 and the powder transport line 14, the first manipulator 2 and the first transfer device 3 are arranged at one end of the tray return transport line 13, the second manipulator 11 and the second transfer device 10 are arranged at the other end of the tray return transport line 13, the first transfer device 3 and the second transfer device 10 are provided with a first air intake 4 at the top, the cooling chamber is connected to one end of the drying chamber 5, the outlet 7 of the cooling chamber is provided with a second air intake 9, and the second air intake 9 is connected to a humidity sensor 50 for humidity detection.

[0032] A battery split drying line of the present embodiment can realize an efficient drying process for battery powder. During the working process, the battery powder material is first input by the feeding component 1, and the first manipulator 2 grabs the tray from the tray reflux conveyor line. The tray receives the battery powder material at the feeding component 1 and weighs it. After receiving, the first manipulator 2 sends the tray containing the battery powder material to the first transfer device 3. The first transfer device 3 sends the tray containing the battery powder material to the entrance of the drying chamber 5, and is transported by the conveyor line in the drying chamber 5. During the transportation process, the drying chamber 5 The battery powder material is dried and then sent to a cooling room for cooling. The cooled tray with the dried battery powder material is then grabbed by the second manipulator 11 to the collecting device 12. The battery powder material is placed in the collecting device 12, and the empty tray is placed on the tray return transport line 13. The tray is returned for transport in preparation for the next drying operation. The powder transport line 14 is used to transport the dried battery powder material collected in the collecting device 12 to the starting position for subsequent processing steps.

[0033] In the above process, the first air inlet 4 and the second air inlet 9 perform air inhalation to form an air flow layer at a certain height, so that foreign matter in the air is difficult to fall onto the exposed battery powder material, thereby protecting the battery powder material. At the same time, after the second air inlet 9 inhales the gas, the humidity of the inhaled gas is detected. Through such a humidity detection process, the humidity condition of the battery powder material after the drying process can be judged. Specifically, the drying condition is judged by the moisture characteristics emitted after drying, thereby realizing a quick judgment of the drying degree, thereby realizing the removal of foreign matter on the one hand, and realizing a quick judgment of the drying degree on the other hand.

[0034] This humidity monitoring method, which connects the inhalation detection pipeline, sets a humidity sensor 50 therein to detect the humidity of the inhaled gas, and sends the detection result to the controller 51 to form a humidity change curve for comparison with the model curve, has many advantages.

[0035] First, the real-time detection of the humidity of the battery powder material after drying is realized. The humidity of the material can be grasped in time after the drying process is completed, so as to quickly judge its drying degree. This is crucial to ensure product quality and avoid the performance of the battery powder being affected by insufficient or excessive drying.

[0036] Secondly, the humidity data is used to form a humidity change curve and compare it with the model curve to quickly and accurately determine whether the humidity is qualified. The comparison process is based on big data model training. With long-term work, the detection efficiency and accuracy will continue to improve. This method not only improves production efficiency, but also reduces errors in human judgment and ensures the stability of product quality.

[0037] Furthermore, by inhaling gas through the air inlet for humidity detection, humidity information can be obtained without direct contact with the battery powder material. This will not cause pollution or damage to the material, and can achieve accurate humidity monitoring. At the same time, an air flow layer is formed at a certain height, making it difficult for foreign objects in the air to fall on the exposed battery powder material, achieving double protection for the battery powder material.

[0038] In addition, this humidity monitoring method has high flexibility and adaptability. The model curve can be adjusted according to different production needs and material characteristics to meet different drying requirements. At the same time, the controller can store and analyze the detection data to provide data support for the optimization of the production process.

[0039] In short, this humidity monitoring method plays an important role in the battery powder drying line, improves production efficiency and product quality, and provides reliable guarantee for the drying process of battery powder.

[0044] Furthermore, the second air inlet 9 is connected to an air inlet detection pipe 52, and the humidity sensor 50 is arranged in the air inlet detection pipe 52 to realize real-time detection of humidity, and send the detection result to the controller 51. After receiving the detection data, the controller 51 forms a humidity change curve according to the humidity change data over time, and compares the humidity change curve with the model curve. If the comparison result is consistent, it means that the humidity is qualified. If the comparison result is not consistent, it means that the humidity is unqualified. By forming a speed change curve from the humidity data and comparing the speed change curve with the model curve to obtain a comparison result, the humidity can be quickly judged with a high accuracy. Through big data model training, the model curve of the model can be accurately set. In the long-term working process, its detection efficiency and accuracy will be continuously improved. Figure 4 In the figure, the dotted line is the model curve and the solid line is the humidity change curve.
