Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] This invention belongs to the field of granulation production technology, and particularly relates to a continuous coating granulation production device and method for graphite anode materials. Background Technology
[0002] Graphite anode material refers to carbonaceous materials used as anodes in lithium-ion batteries, typically mixed with lithium salts to form an electrolyte. It has a layered structure that allows for the insertion and extraction of lithium ions, thus exhibiting high reversible capacity, good conductivity and stability, and a low lithium insertion voltage. Before being used, graphite anode materials require external coating with a coating granulation process.
[0003] Chinese patent (CN117398899A) discloses a method and apparatus for continuous coating and granulation preparation of graphite anode material for batteries. The method includes obtaining an initial mass ratio of graphite powder and binder based on a production factor table, optimizing the mass ratio, mixing the graphite powder and binder to prepare a graphite paste, and then using a granulation device to shear the paste into uniform particles. An infrared module is used to heat the particles, and the temperature distribution and dynamic changes of the particles are monitored in real time to adjust the power of the infrared module. The heated particles are then coated and cooled to obtain the finished product. By optimizing the initial mass ratio, the method can respond to environmental changes or fluctuations in raw material quality. Furthermore, the infrared module enables dynamic adjustment of processing parameters during the particle heating process, achieving feedback regulation and improving the performance, quality, and consistency of the product. This results in graphite anode material with high particle size uniformity, thus enhancing battery performance. While current graphite anode material coating and granulation equipment can achieve granulation, it still faces some problems in practical applications. These problems mainly manifest in the inability to simultaneously perform graphite grinding and subsequent coating operations, resulting in a long overall process flow, numerous pieces of equipment involved, and high energy consumption. Furthermore, the effect is poor when mixing and coating graphite materials, with some materials not being fully coated, affecting the overall practical application of the equipment. To solve these problems, there is an urgent need for a continuous coating and granulation production device and method for graphite anode materials. Summary of the Invention

[0019] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0020] The circulating material guiding assembly includes a discharge shell, a material trough is provided on one outer wall of the housing, the discharge shell is fixedly installed in the material trough, a circulating material guiding pipe is fixedly installed on one outer wall of the discharge shell, a suction pump is fixedly installed on the outside of the circulating material guiding pipe, one end of the circulating material guiding pipe passes through and extends into the interior of the housing, a suction plate is fixedly installed on one end of the circulating material guiding pipe, and a plurality of suction holes are provided on the outer surface of the suction plate.
[0021] As a further description of the above technical solution:
[0022] The receiving assembly includes a receiving box, which is fixedly installed at the bottom of the machine housing. Two guide ramps are fixedly installed inside the receiving box. Discharge ports are provided on both sides of the receiving box, and baffles are installed inside the discharge ports via hinges.
[0023] This article also discloses a continuous coating and granulation production method for graphite anode materials, including the following steps:
[0024] S1. When using this equipment, the graphite negative electrode material is added into the machine housing through the feed port, and the material falls into the grinding inner shell.
[0025] S2. At this time, the grinding motor is turned on. The grinding motor can drive the drive pulley and the grinding roller to rotate. The grinding roller can grind the added material, so that the material is powdered and falls through the screen hole. During the above process, the drive pulley can drive the driven pulley to rotate through the transmission belt. The reciprocating screw can rotate, causing the mixing and coating mechanism installed on it to move back and forth. When it moves, it can drive the moving mixing and coating component to move synchronously. The gear can mesh with the built-in rack during the movement, driving the mixing and coating material plate to rotate, and mixing and coating the material.
[0026] S3. During the movement of the mixing and coating mechanism, the movable cleaning pad set on the top can circulate and clean the bottom of the grinding inner shell, thereby cleaning off some of the graphite powder hanging on the wall and avoiding waste. Since the arc-shaped top plate is retractable, it can continuously apply pressure to the grinding inner shell under the action of the built-in spring, ensuring the thorough cleaning of the adhering material.
[0027] S4. When coating materials, the coating material is directly introduced into the machine casing through the feeding port, and the suction pump is turned on. The suction pump can draw the mixed coating material in the machine casing through the suction plate and reintroduce it into the machine casing through the discharge shell. This process is repeated to achieve the cyclic mixing and coating of the material. Finally, the coated material that meets the particle size requirements can be introduced into the receiving box through the particle sieve plate and dispersed into the discharge ports on both sides through two guide inclined plates, ready for subsequent material collection.
[0028] S5. When the mixing and coating mechanism moves back and forth, the traveling roller can also roll back and forth on the granule screen plate. The unblocking protrusions on its outer surface can be embedded in the screen holes of the granule screen plate during the movement, so as to unblock the screen holes and avoid the accumulation of a large amount of coating material, which would cause the granule screen plate to be blocked. At the same time, the rolling traveling roller can also ensure the stability of the overall mixing and coating mechanism movement.
[0029] In summary, due to the adoption of the above technical solution, the beneficial effects of the present invention are:
[0030] 1. In this invention, a grinding assembly, a driven assembly, and a mixing and coating mechanism are provided. When the equipment is in use, graphite negative electrode material is added into the machine housing through the feed inlet. The material falls into the grinding inner shell. At this time, the grinding motor is turned on, driving the drive pulley and grinding roller to rotate. The grinding roller grinds the added material, causing it to fall as powder through the sieve holes. During this process, the drive pulley drives the driven pulley to rotate via the transmission belt, and the reciprocating screw rotates, causing the mixing and coating mechanism mounted on it to move back and forth. During this movement, the moving mixing and coating assembly is synchronously displaced. The gear meshes with the built-in rack during movement, driving the mixing and coating plate to rotate, thus mixing and coating the material. Through this design, the grinding process of graphite material and the subsequent coating process are organically combined through the combination of various structures. This allows for the simultaneous completion of different operation steps, simplifying the overall process flow, reducing equipment costs, improving the utilization rate of the workspace, and enabling the moving mixing and processing of materials. This effectively improves the uniformity and effectiveness of the material mixing and coating, greatly enhancing the overall practical application effect of the equipment.
[0031] 2. In this invention, by providing a retractable arc-shaped top plate on the mixing and coating mechanism, the movable cleaning pad on the top of the mixing and coating mechanism can circulate and clean the bottom of the grinding inner shell during the movement of the mixing and coating mechanism, thereby cleaning off some of the graphite powder adhering to the wall and avoiding waste. Since the arc-shaped top plate is retractable, it can continuously apply pressure to the grinding inner shell under the action of the built-in spring, ensuring the thorough cleaning of the adhering material.
[0032] 3. In this invention, by providing a receiving component and a circulating material guiding component, the coating material is directly introduced into the machine casing through the feeding port during material coating. The suction pump is then activated, drawing the mixed coating material from inside the machine casing through the suction plate and reintroducing it into the machine casing through the discharge shell. This process is repeated to achieve cyclic mixing and coating of the material. The final coated material, meeting the particle size requirements, is guided through the particle sieve plate into the receiving box and then dispersed at the discharge ports on both sides by two guide plates, ready for subsequent material collection. This design enables cyclic mixing and coating of the material, significantly improving the yield of the final coated material and ensuring the comprehensiveness and thoroughness of the coating operation.
[0033] 4. In this invention, by providing traveling rollers with several unblocking protrusions on both sides of the mixing and coating mechanism, the traveling rollers can also roll back and forth on the particle screen plate when the mixing and coating mechanism moves back and forth. The unblocking protrusions on their outer surface can embed into the screen holes of the particle screen plate during the movement, thereby unblocking the screen holes and preventing the accumulation of a large amount of coating material, which would cause the particle screen plate to become blocked. At the same time, the rolling traveling rollers can also ensure the stability of the overall mixing and coating mechanism movement and improve the application effect of the equipment.
